Description
Distinguished scholars from both sides of the Atlantic make a major contribution to medieval literary studies in contributions ranging from early epic to Fernando de Rojas. Studies on `cuaderna via' verse and the poets of the `cancionero' figure prominently, as do the `Libro de buen amor' and `Celestina'; these are complemented by individual essays on texts outside the mainstream, on the language and versification of the period, on the prose writers of thefifteenth century, and on literary activity in Catalonia, Galicia and Portugal. The collection demonstrates the range of interest and approach characteristic of recent Hispanic scholarship, and provides new insights into the medieval mind at work in the Iberian peninsula.
IAN MACPHERSON is former Professor of Spanish, University of Durham; RALPH PENNY is Professor of Romance Philology, Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London.
