Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the in-fluence of the literary movement called socialist realism on the Spanish American novel. Basically an invention of the Soviet Communists of the 1930's, the theory calls for the creation of literature which espouses the Marxist interpretation of society. Its international character combined with the militancy and the cohesiveness of its advocates has allowed it to assume proportions in Spanish America which its numbers would not otherwise merit,
