Contents: Preface. Introduction by Philip S. Foner. 1. Art and Artists. 2. Literature and literary figures. 3. Jose Martis literary will and testament. 4. Chronology of the life of Jose Marti. Chronology. Index.

This English-language edition presents the celebrated Cuban writer and revolutionary Jose Marti’s thoughts on art and literature. His essays on painters and literary figures can stand with the best of modern criticism and his writing on culture reminds us that Marti deserves to be remembered for far more than his inestimable contribution to the Cuban independence struggle.
