Emir Rodriguez Monegal (July 28, 1921 — November 14, 1985) is a literary critic and editor of Latin American literature. He was a part of (and partially responsible for with his editorial guidance of Mundo Nuevo) the mid 20th century boom in Spanish American literature that led to many Latin American writers being published outside of their home countries and gaining critical recognition.
