| Abstract
|
:
|
"In this testimonio, or oral history, Luis Leal reflects upon his early life in Mexico, his intellectual formation at Northwestern University and the University of Chicago, and his work and publications as a scholar and teacher at several institutions, including the University of Illinois and the University of California, Santa Barbara. Through questions, included in the narrative, Mario Garcia draws out the connections between literature and history that have been a primary focus of Leal's work.
