	Aris & Phillips Hispanic Classics Francisco de Quevedo: Dreams and Discourses Quevedo: Dreams and Discourses With an Introduction, Translation and Notes by R. K. Britton~ The Sueños is one of the most controversial, witty and fantastic works of early 17th century Spanish literature. The five Dreams minutely analyse stupidity, ignorance and evil, as these could be found in contemporary society. The work's serious moral intention, often masked by the author's pointed anger, scabrous wit, wide learning, love of verbal gymnastics and surreal flights of imaginative fantasy, has for 350 years ...

	Aris & Phillips Hispanic Classics Gabriela Mistral: Selected Poems translated and edited by Paul Burns and Salvador Ortiz-Carboneres Gabriela Mistral (1889-1967), Chile's 'other' great poet of the twentieth century, is little known outside the Spanish-speaking world, and unlike Pablo Neruda has not been extensively translated into English. She deserves better, particularly as the first Latin American recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature (1945), and this selection of her poetry is designed to introduce her to an English-speaking public.

	Aris & Phillips Hispanic Classics Jose de Espronceda: The Student of Salamanca Translated by C. K. Davies with an Introduction and Notes by Richard A. Cardwell~ In this impressive 'verse legend' Espronceda creates an original interpretation of the famous Don Juan legend whereby he produces a Romantic 'counter-text' which gives voice to what we now recognise as a central part of the modern philosophical condition: the Romantic vision of an all-pervasive cosmic injustice. Professor Cardwell, in his introduction, shows how in the person of Felix de Montemar, Espronceda has created one of Europe's first ... Paperback. Price GB £15.00 Hardback. Price GB £35.00
	Aris & Phillips Hispanic Classics The Scripted Self by Ruth Christie, J. Drinkwater and J.J. Macklin The period since 1975 in Spain, following years of dictatorship, has seen a remarkable surge of creative cultural activity.

From within this diversity the recurrent themes of self and identity emerge as a constant preoccupation and constitute the central concern of this new study. Christie, Drinkwater ... Paperback. Price GB £14.95
