Las literaturas hispánicas y el pensamiento crítico y teórico serbio
Hispanic Literatures and Serbian Literary Theory and Criticism

Summary/Abstract: The Hispanic literatures have been present in Serbia for a long time; this horizon was opened (in the nineteenth century) to the Serbian public by Spanish literature, and it was subsequently (in the twentieth century) enlarged by Spanish American literature. However, the comprehensive study and assessment of literary works created in Spain and Hispanic America from the point of view of literary criticism, theory and history began to be developed thoroughly by Serbian specialists quite late, almost at the end of the twentieth century. Therefore, the period studied in this work covers the last thirty-five years (1982-2013). The field of research performed includes books written by Serbian authors who are completely dedicated to the study and critical-theoretical assessment of Hispanic literature. The main objective of this paper is to analytically present the mentioned works and to derive conclusions of a synthetic character about this kind of interpretative reception in Serbia. Numerous articles, studies, reviews and essays that are dispersed through magazines and newspapers or that form an integral part of the critical compilations have not been taken into consideration for this paper.
