Field notes
The bilingual interface offers seven routes through the project: a map filtered by region, ecosystem, period, and violence type; a timeline; a full corpus table; and a methodology page that explains inclusion, exclusion, and edge cases. The site describes a century of Colombian literature across four periods, from rubber extraction to peace signatories, and provides a way to suggest novels, poems, chronicles, and oralitures. It identifies Edna Acosta as the project’s author and lists a CEPE UNAM talk for 6 November 2026.
