Summary

Out of print for nearly two decades, Edward Mullen's scholarly edition of Juan Francisco Manzano's autobiography and poetry has long been considered the standard text for understanding this remarkable figure's life and work. This revised second edition builds upon the achievement of the first, taking into account the wealth of academic literature that has appeared on Manzano since 1981. Providing a thorough historical, cultural, and literary contextualization, this is an accessible, essential resource for scholars and students of Caribbean literatures.

Author Biography

Edward J. Mullen is Professor Emeritus of Spanish at the University of Missouri, USA.
