His research focuses on popular print culture in Early Modern Europe. He has studied one of the most widespread popular genres in Spain, the so-called “Literatura de Cordel”, from multiple perspectives: cultural representations (religious, political, gender), material aspects of the printings (the “pliegos sueltos”), production and dissemination, and usages and readers. He has also made significant contributions in order to understand this phenomenon from a transnational, European perspective.
