As the most widely circulated cultural product of postwar Latin America, telenovelas have been central to inter-American cultural dialogue, with many productions becoming transnational hits. The volume offers an account of the genre, adopting a multidisciplinary perspective—spanning sociology, anthropology, literature, performance, film and art history—in documenting the histories and ongoing afterlives of a form that remains deeply embedded in Latin American and Latinx culture.Telenovela: A Reader brings together 13 essays by scholars from Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, the United States and Venezuela, alongside illustrations of telenovela-inspired artworks. It includes a substantial archival section that highlights the visual and conceptual richness of telenovelas through reproductions of key archival documents.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9781879128644.
