About This Novel
"General History of Spanish and Spanish American Literature" is the first true general history of Spanish literature, and it is not limited to the Spanish language. This is because it originated from Spain as a relatively independent kingdom - the Visigoths, and has lasted for more than 1,500 years, spanning the two continents of Europe and the United States, involving twenty countries, plus the heritage of the ancient Mayan, Inca and Aztec civilizations. The five-volume general history consists of "Spanish Literature: The Medieval Period", "Spanish Literature: The Golden Century", "Spanish Literature: Modern Times", "Spanish American Literature: The Classical Period" and "Spanish American Literature: Modern Times". "Hispanic American Literature: The Classical Period" consists of literature from the ancient Indian period and the Spanish colonial period. The literature of the ancient Indian period mainly includes Mayan, Inca and Aztec literature; Spanish colonial literature began in 1492, when Columbus discovered America, and his logbook is considered the beginning of "New World" literature. During more than three hundred years of colonial rule, Spanish culture dominated Spanish America. At the beginning of the 19th century, the American independence movement and the French Revolution spread to Spanish America. Colonial writers opened the curtain of enlightenment, and the clarion call of the independent revolution resounded from north to south.
