Reassessing Pocho Poetics: Americo Paredes's Poetry and the (Trans) National Question
Olguin, B.V.
Aztlan: A Journal of Chicano Studies, v30 n1 p87 Spr 2005
Americo Paredes's first collection of poetry, Cantos de Adolescencia in 1937, alongside his second poetry anthology, Between Two Worlds in 1991 is examined. Paredes's discourses of Mexican American identity demand a reassessment of the pocho as an icon for Chicanao literary and cultural studies.
