Coplas de Yoçef
Originally published in 1935, this book contains the Hebrew text, Roman transliteration and English translation of the medieval Spanish poem 'Coplas de Yoçef', which re-tells the biblical story of Joseph. The text is taken from a fifteenth-century manuscript in the collection of the Cambridge University Library, and is edited with critical commentary and notes by the celebrated Judaeo-Spanish scholar Ignacio González Llubera. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in medieval Jewish poetry and the literature of Jewish Spain.
Spain and Its Literature
Besides an Introduction, Bibliography and "Centenary Reappraisal", eighteen original articles by respected Hispanists from Britain, Spain and the United States have been collected in this homage volume. A high proportion of articles reflect Peers’ major interests in mysticism and the Romantic Movement. Part I, From the Middle Ages to the Siglo de Oro, includes essays that deal with Francisco de Osuna’s "higher memory", the "Dark Night" of San Juan de la Cruz, Judaeo-Islamic traditions in Luis de León and Miguel de Molinos’ Spiritual Guide. Part II, From the Dawn of Romanticism to the Twentieth Century, contains articles concerned with writers, works or themes as: Sánchez’s Colección and Percy’s Reliques, Rivas and tragedy, El moro expósito, Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, Victor Hugo and "La Nonne sanglante". An article, dealing comparatively with Goytisolo and Zorrilla, which provides "A Missing Link in the Dis-affiliation of a Post-Romantic Expatriate in Revolt?" aptly concludes the volume.
