Beskrivning

This ambitious book attempts to rehistoricize the Golden Age of Spain (ca. 1550-1680) by placing literary production in its socio-cultural context. Drawing on theories of cultural materialism and making use of historical analysis, George Mariscal focuses on the ways in which the problem of subjectivity is constructed in the writing of the period, particularly the poetry of Francisco de Quevedo and Cervantes' Don Quixote.

Recensioner i media

"Mariscal's book brings a new perspective to Golden Age Spanish studies. Although it does not destroy the traditional opposition between Quevedo and Cervantes, it significantly and usefully complicates it. Contradictory Subjects is distinguished by its mastery of the relevant theoretical issues, a wide range of secondary sources, and a considerable number of primary 'nonliterary' texts of early modern Spain."
