Renata Wasserman and Inter-Americanism
This essay considers Prof. Wasserman as a practitioner of the field known, variously, as inter-American literary study, hemispheric literature, and the literature of the Americas.

My study especially celebrates her work on two Brazilia…

Machado de Assis' Reception and the Transformation of the Modern European Novel
This essay is concerned with Machado’s contribution to the evolution of the modern novel’s form. My thesis is that, because of the innovations that he wrought, Machado now needs to be considered as one of the modern novel’s great masters. In making this argument, I stress three points: 1) that Machado knew the European novel very well and that he knew in his own mind how he could improve it; 2) that Machado did improve it, breaking new ground for…

The Reception of Machado de Assis in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s
Na literatura, a questão da recepção é extremamente complexa e, ao mesmo tempo, essencial, sobretudo se quisermos compreender melhor o impacto que uma cultura literária pouco conhecida tem em outra. Neste artigo, estudo a recepção de Machado de Assis nos Estados Unidos durante os anos cinquenta, quando três de seus romances — Epitaph of a Small Winner, Dom Casmurro e Philosopher or Dog? — apareceram pela primeira vez em tradução para o inglês. Ta…

Internationalizing the Literature of the Portuguese-Speaking World
This article argues that the literature of the Portuguese-speaking world can and should seek to internationalize itself in the early decades of the twenty-first century and that there are five contexts which should prove to be effective vehicles in helping to do this: Latin American literature; inter-American literature; Europe; Africa; and world literature. In each category, the author offers some specific examples of how this might be done, tha…
Ambiguity and Gender in the New Novel of Brazil and Spanish America. A Comparative Assessment
In this first book-length study to compare the new novels of both Spanish America and Brazil, the authors deftly examine the differing perceptions of ambiguity as they apply to questions of gender and the participation of females and males in the establishment of Latin American narrative models. Their daring thesis: the Brazilian new novel developed a more radical form than its better-known Spanish-speaking cousin because it had a significantly d…
