Image one: E-book titled Historical Dictionary of Latin American Literature and Theater (2011) - synopsis: Provides users with an accessible single-volume reference tool covering Portuguese-speaking Brazil and the 16 Spanish-speaking countries of continental Latin America (Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela). Entries for authors, ranging from the early colonial period to the present, give succinct biographical data and an account of the author's literary production, with particular attention to their most prominent works and where they belong in literary history.
Image two: E-book titled Latining America: Black-Brown Passages and the Coloring of Latino/a Studies (2013) - synopsis: Latining America keeps company with and challenges existent models of Latinidad, demanding a distinct paradigm that puts into question what is understood as Latino and Latina today. Milian conceptually considers how underexplored “Latin” participants – the southern, the black, the dark brown, the Central American – have ushered in a new world of “Latined” signification from the 1920s to the present.
