| Reviews |
| - 'Sustained by his habitual panache and brilliance [the six chapters] constitute a series of 'strong" readings guaranteed to convince young Hispanists of the need to engage seriously with an important body of post-structuralist texts' - Malcolm K. Reed, Journal of Hispanic Philology
|
| Description | | This is the first book to analyse Spanish and Spanish American literature in the light of modern theories of sexuality. Its aim is twofold: to provide a readable introduction to the varied and complex treatments of sexuality since Freud; and to read, in this context, a representative selection of major texts from different areas of Hispanic studies - Renaissance, modern peninsular, and Spanish
American. The writers discussed include Fuentes, Neruda, Lorca, and Galdós. |
