- Description
- Latino Literature includes creative works by Latino authors: novels, works of poetry,
drama, materials relating to dramatic productions such as playbills, production stills and audio
files, as well a small amount of miscellaneous nonfiction. All works are reproduced in their
entirety. The contents can be browsed or searched, or the drama collection can be searched by itself
with a larger number of advanced search features. Users can also search for theater companies that
have produced the works of drama included the database, and even for works containing characters
based on particular people. The database includes a large number of previously unpublished works
collected directly from the authors, making it a particularly rich resource for scholars of Latino/a
and Latin American literature and culture.
