I think this is epic and a valuable lesson for all people who, instead of asking questions, should consider eating the barrel of a gun and pull the trigger.

And he little bastard erased his thread because he was named and shamed.

To spite the OP of the deleted thread, let this be a Spanish literature thread. Anyone know of any interesting essays written by Spanish-speaking authors? I suggest Borges' essay on the Divine Comedy ("Beatrice's Last Smile", I think), though I've only seen it in English.

[Anonymous No.3566059]

Hardly seems worth its own thread. In the USA they seem to regard Spanish as Mexican-speak anyway, hence the aversion to learning it I guess.

[Anonymous No.3566068]

>implying they speak Spanish in Spain

The word you're looking for is "Portugese. "

Brilliant idea.

Here is some Cortazar. Another genius from Argentina and, in my opinion, as crisp and delectable as Borges.

It is a new trend in literature known as Wal-Martism. It consists of reinventing Western philosophy and its understanding of the world based on mullets and Fox channel.

ITT: hispanics get mad that their language is associated with dirty mexicans

[Anonymous No.3567455]

Name one piece of good Spanish literature written in Spain. You can't.

Spanish is only a useful language for the Americas, everything from Spain is just ultra-Catholics faffing around.

I associate Spanish with 'latin temperament' which consists of dancing and killing your wife and destroying things when you're in a bad mood etc.

There is a city Pera in the midst of wine-dark Tuphos,
Fair and fruitful, filthy all about, possessing nothing,
Into which no foolish parasite ever sails,
Nor any playboy who delights in a whore's ass,
But it produces thyme, garlic, figs, and bread,
For which the citizens do not war with each other,
Nor do they possess arms, to get cash or fame.

Th most disheartening thing is that just because the irresponsible spending and credit attitudes of 300 million subhumans makes them an attractive market, the world is dumped with junk: TV, movie theaters, bookstores, etc. And, just because of that, there is a "race to the bottom" to feed those fat asses with entertainment, and a dumbing down of everything --for the economic links run deep. That causes the 300 million neo-roman-empire decadent retards to think that the world circles around their junk civilization.
