Textuality is the condition in which a text is created, edited,
archived, published, disseminated, and consumed. ""Texts,""
therefore, encompass a broad variety of artifacts: traditional
printed matter such as grammar books and newspaper articles;
phonographs; graphic novels; ephemera such as fashion
illustrations, catalogs, and postcards; and even virtual databases
and cataloging systems. Latin American Textualities is a
wide-ranging, interdisciplinary look at textual history, textual
artifacts, and digital textualities across Latin America from the
colonial era to the present. Editors Heather J. Allen and Andrew R.
Reynolds gathered a wide range of scholars to investigate the
region's textual scholarship. Contributors offer engaging examples
of not just artifacts but also the contexts in which the texts are
used. Topics include Guaman Poma's library, the effect of sound
recordings on writing in Argentina, Sudamericana Publishing House's
contribution to the Latin American literary boom, and Argentine
science fiction. Latin American Textualities provides new paths to
reading Latin American history, culture, and literatures.
