| Synopsis: |
Cartoons and comics have played important roles in the political and social processes of Latin America for more than a century. This book coalesces, for the first time in one volume, aspects of comic art of the entire region, capturing historical backgrounds, documenting trends, problems and situations of comic art in contemporary settings, and profiling cartoonists, comics characters, titles and genres. Ten countries of Central and South America and Spanish Caribbean are dealt with in separate chapters. Comic art forms/media that are subjects of chapters are animation, caricature, comic books, comic strips, humor magazines, and political cartoons. Approaches include historical and character analyses. Authors of chapters represent some of the most knowledgeable individuals in Latin American comic art. |
