Scope and Content
From the Collection:
The Angel Flores Papers include correspondence with various Latin American authors and literary critics including Octavio Paz, Luís Dávila and Julio Cortázar. The majority of the material in the collection relates to volumes from Latin American literary symposiums on Octavio Paz, Pablo Neruda, Cesar Vallejo, Jorge Luís Borges, Horacio Quiroga, and Ricardo Palma, compiled by Angel Flores. The collection also includes critical essays and papers related to those authors and English translations of some of their prose and poetry. The collection contains 6 series, one corresponding with each of the authors.
The Octavio Paz series is divided into two subseries. The first subseries includes correspondence and drafts from the authors who participated in Aproximaciones A Octavio Paz, including their correspondence with Paz. The second subseries consists of correspondence and papers from authors, relating to a symposium that Flores never published, "Iniciacion a la poesia contemporanea hispanomaericana."
The Pablo Neruda series begins with biographical information, including a series of articles on Neruda's life from the journal O Cruzeiro and various newspaper articles. There is also a small amount of general correspondence, including one letter from Neruda. The majority of materials consist of English translations of Neruda's work, some annotated by various writers including Flores. Flores published two symposiums on Neruda, Aproximaciones a Pablo Neruda, and Nuevas Aproximaciones a Pablo Neruda.
The series on César Vallejo consists mainly of correspondence and papers related to the work of Vallejo, the majority which is related to the two volume publication Aproximaciones a César Vallejo.
The three remaining series, Jorge Luís Borges, Horacio Quiroga, and Ricardo Palma are more limited in scope and volume. The series include general biographical information, small amounts of correspondence, and drafts of some of the published symposium papers (Expliquemos a Borges como Poeta, Aproximaciones a Horacio Quiroga, and Origenes del Cuento Hispanoamericano--Ricardo Palma y sus Tradiciones: Estudios, Textos, y Análisis), and essays ultimately not included in the publications.
Most materials in the collection are in Spanish and English, a few items are in French
