Philip Larkin and His Audiences
Philip Larkin, one of England's greatest and most popular twentieth-century poets, is nonetheless widely regarded as a misanthropic, provincial recluse. This volume re-examines that critical view and argues that Larkin's poetry, far from demonstrating his misanthropy, highlights his profound awareness of and concern for readers.
The Reception of Alfred Tennyson in Europe
Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) has often been considered a particularly British writer in part as his official post as Poet Laureate inevitably committed him to a certain amount of patriotic writing. This volume focuses on his impact on the continent, presenting a major scholarly analysis of Tennyson's wider reception in different areas of Europe. It considers reader and critical responses and explores the effect of his poetry upon his contemporaries and later writers, as well as his influence upon illustrators, painters and musicians. The leading international contributors raise questions of translation and publication and of the choices made for this purpose along with the way in which his ideas and style influenced European writing and culture. Tennyson's reputation in Anglophone countries is now assured, following a decline in the years after his death. This volume enables us to chart the changes in Tennyson's European reputation during the later 19th, 20th and 21st centuries.

Traducción y traductores, del romanticismo al realismo
Este volumen recoge las ponencias presentadas en el coloquio que tuvo lugar en la Facultad de Traducción e Interpretación de la Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona) en noviembre del 2004. El objetivo del coloquio era estudiar la actividad traductora desarrollada en España entre 1834 y 1880, abarcando así la etapa plenamente romántica y también a los autores postrománticos, la transición al Realismo y la plenitud de este movimiento antes de la irrupción del Naturalismo. Las contribuciones se centran en la traducción y recepción de los autores extranjeros más relevantes (Balzac, Dumas, Goethe, los Goncourt, Heine, Hugo, Manzoni, Sand, Shakespeare, etc.), así como en la labor desar...
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
