Description

Runner-up for the 2015 Publication Prize awarded by the Association of Hispanists of Great Britain and Ireland and the Spanish Embassy Castilian romances of chivalry were the dominant form of fiction in Europe during the peak of the Spanish Empire in the the sixteenth century. Whilst the material traits of chivalric romances have been thoroughly studied, Don Quijote's shadow has often resulted in the neglect of the literary aspects and influence of the genre, thus hindering our understanding of Golden Age and Spanish fiction. Conversely, this book examines the literary transformation of the genre throughout the sixteenth century from the perspective of intertextuality. In particular, this book focuses on the literary practices central to the craft and development of the genre: the rewriting of previous romance, the writing of sequels, and the formation of narrative cycles. These three processes defined the poetics of the genre and set the bases and literary techniques for other fictional genres and works, including Don Quijote itself. Daniel Gutiérrez Trápaga is Associate Professor in Research Methodologies (Hispanic Literature) at the Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. Review Gutiérrez Trápaga is to be congratulated for his contribution to the study of this statistically and culturally significant form, the best parallel for which is the modern fantasy romance (think Game of Thrones). ― MEDIUM ÆVUM Scholars will welcome Gutiérrez Trápaga's study. He has set forth an interesting perspective/vision in terms of intertextuality and cyclical characteristics of a literary genre, using a significant number of romances, increasing our understanding of both writers and readers of sixteenth-century Peninsular literature. ― RENAISSANCE QUARTERLY
