The article discusses the literary language of the United States Hispanics. It contains original and distinctive elements that reflect the multicultural, bilingual character of the U. S. The article reviews a number of key issues including multicultural nature of the language, bilingualism and bidialectalism of the U. S. Hispanic population and how those features of language appear with due artistic elaboration in the literary language. The article also offers to the readers a sampler from a stylistic point of view of the U.S. Hispanic literary language, featuring Spanish-English code-switching in the service of theme, characterization, imagery and a variety of rhetorical devices. Multiculturalism is the acequia madre which courses through it in its entirety. |
