This text is significantly, and laudably, more ambitious than a traditional anthology, for the authors, who have team-taught a course based on these materials for a number of years, have also formulated a systematic pedagogical approach to the shift from modernism to postmodernism." Susan Martin-Marquez, Associate Professor of Spanish and Portuguese, Rutgers University
The authors are faculty members at Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina. Erik Ching is Associate Professor of History; Christina Buckley and Anglica Lozano-Alonso are Associate Professors of Spanish in the Department of Modern Languages and Literatures.
