This anthology of contemporary Costa Rican poetry offers the reader a gratifying overview of an important part of this Central American Country’s literature.
Starting with a careful selection of poems by the editor, who is an expert in Spanish American literature, the translator gives an extraordinarily accurate rendition of the poetry in English.

This book analyzes how six countries in Central America―Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama―connected to and through computer networks such as UUCP, BITNET and the Internet from the 80s to the year 2000.
It argues that this story can only be told from a transnational perspective. To connect to computer networks, Central America built a regional integration project with great implications for its development.
By revealing the beginnings of the Internet in this part of the world, this study broadens our understanding of the development of computer networks in the global south.
It also demonstrates that transnational flows of knowledge, data, and technologies are a constitutive feature of the historical development of the Internet.
