Abstract

The research project The office of critic in Angel Rama (Phase 4): Angel Rama in the Journal WRITING: Literary theory and criticism: a position on the study of Latin American literature, which is presented by the research group Antón de Montesinos de the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters and which is part of the Literary Theory and Criticism line, aims to to be a contribution to the greater comprehension of the problem of criticism and the office of criticism in Latin America. Rama, throughout his vast production, proposed a series of concepts, ideas, categories and criteria for the study of Latin American cultural and intellectual fields that are recognized as keys to understanding not only Latin American literature but also the role of critic in a continent as broad and as diverse as ours. This project, in its fourth phase, aims to recognize and reconstruct the proposal that the Uruguayan critic left for the study of Latin American literature, through the articles he wrote for the magazine WRITING: Literary Theory and Criticism, a magazine he founded and directed in Venezuela, between 1976 and 1982. Thus, this project will be a contribution to the work that is currently being developed in different universities in Latin America and the United States in relation to the work of Ángel Rama and the imprint he left on the development of literary criticism and Latin American literature.
