Profane & Sacred examines religious discourse in contemporary
Latino/a fiction, exploring how religion creates, mediates or
changes Latino culture and identity. Much contemporary literary
criticism on Latino/a literature has focused on the bilingual and
bicultural nature of Latino identity, history and cultural
production. But just as the multiplicity of cultures and languages
has shaped Latino identity and history, so too has religion.
Studying the religious discourse found in fiction can clearly
enrich not only our perception of the diversity within the Hispanic
communities, but also the diversity between sociologists and
creative writers.
