Placing the works of canonical Spanish and Amerindian writers of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries-Bartolomé de las Casas in particular-within this larger polemic, she shows how their works sought credibility through reference to the narrative accounts they followed or contradicted, rather than the historical events they sought to defend or condemn. Demonstrating how these authors and their protagonists have been polemically reinvented in narrative form up to the present day, Adorno elucidates the role the "polemics of possession" played in the development of Latin American literary and political discourse. 606 $aSpanish American fiction$yTo 1800$xHistory and criticism 606 $aImperialism in literature 606 $aColonies in literature 607 $aLatin America$xCivilization$y16th century 607 $aLatin America$xCivilization$y17th century 607 $aSpain$xIn literature 615 0$aSpanish American fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aImperialism in literature. 615 0$aColonies in literature. 676 $a863/.30998 700 $aAdorno$b Rolena$0259050 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969548303321 996 $aThe polemics of possession in Spanish American narrative$94330820 997 $aUNINA
