| Summary | "Readings from Modern Mexican Authors" by Frederick Starr is a collection of literary excerpts compiled in the early 20th century. The work encompasses a wide range of writings by noteworthy Mexican authors, aiming to showcase the literary landscape of Mexico through various genres and themes. The selections reflect Mexican life, culture, and thought, providing an essential introduction to modern Mexican literature for readers unfamiliar with these writers. The opening of the book presents a preface where the author discusses his journey of discovering modern Mexican literature during his visits to Mexico. He explains his objective in creating this anthology, which focuses on writers who are primarily contemporary and living, while noting some exceptions based on personal influence and connection. Starr emphasizes the significance of the selections in revealing the rich tapestry of Mexican literary voices, which often appear in periodicals and are not always accessible. The introduction thus sets the stage for a thoughtful exploration of Mexican authors and their contribution to the understanding of their country’s identity and cultural heritage.
