The Maya Literary Renaissance is a growing yet little-known literary phenomenon that can redefine our understanding of "literature" universally. By analyzing eight representative texts of this new and vibrant literary movement, the book argues that the texts present literature as a trans-species phenomenon that is not reducible only to human creativity. Based on detailed textual analysis of the literature in both Maya and Spanish as well as first-hand conversations with the writers themselves, the book develops the first conceptual map of how literature constantly emerges from wider creative patterns in nature. This process, defined as literary inhabitation, is explained by synthesizing core Maya cultural concepts with diverse philosophical, literary, anthropological and biological theories. In the context of the Yucatan Peninsula, where the texts come from, literary inhabitation is presented as an integral part of bioregional becoming, the evolution of the Peninsula as a constantly unfolding dialogue.

Recenzijas

"An original, compelling intervention into how scholars and critics understand Indigenous Literatures, their world-building capacities, and relationships with the environment, Pigotts book is a must read for those interested in the importance of Yucatec Maya language and literature".

Paul M Worley, Western Carolina University

"This book seeks to introduce non-Maya readers to a large body of literature that has gone relatively unnoticed. Pigott is uniquely positioned to carry out this work, as a skilled linguist with an impressive knowledge of both the Yucatec language and cultural context. This volume is a monumental achievement in literary analysis."

Allen J Christenson, Brigham Young University
