\n Synopsis<\/strong><\/span>
\n<\/b>The session will address some of the major trends in contemporary literary creation and their relationship to the profound social and cultural transformations taking place in the country. Special attention will be given to the circulation of these works of literature beyond their contexts of origin, as well as to the decisive role of translation and publishing. <\/span>
