Modern Spanish Women as Agents of Change
This volume brings together cutting-edge research on modern Spanish women as writers, activists, and embodiments of cultural change, and honors Maryellen Bieder's invaluable scholarly contributions. The critical analyses are situated within their specific socio-historical context, and shed new light on nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Spanish literature, history, and culture.
El peregrino y otras historias en Compostela
"Este volumen reúne trece narraciones de la gran escritora (diez cuentos, dos novelas cortas, el comienzo de una novela inconclusa), en las que Santiago de Compostela es escenario, inspiración o referencia. En una edición al cuidado de uno de los mayores expertos en la obra de Pardo Bazán, Jose Manuel González Herrán. Algunos de los relatos están basados en singulares hechos reales, como la historia de aquella monja de clausura que, cuando se descolgaba desde la reja de su celda, en el muro de San Paio de Antealtares, para huir con su amado, se estrelló en las losas de la Plaza de la Quintana; o esa logradísima novela de magia y brujería titulada 'Belcebú'; o el cuento 'La Cana', todo un pionero en el genero policial; o la historia de aquella santa que vivía sin ingerir más alimento que la comunión diaria... Este seductor rescate editorial se abre con un poema escrito por la autora a los 15 años, y dedicado, cómo no, a Compostela"--

Conflicts and Conciliations
Between 1881 and 1897, Benito P rez Gald s, generally acknowledged as Spain's greatest nineteenth-century novelist, composed some twenty "contemporary" novels, which Geoffrey Ribbans characterizes as the peak of his achievement. This monumental study traces the evolution of the many strands that make up one of them: the long and complex novel Fortunata y Jacinta. Ribbans examines the various stages of composition, not only the earlier, reconstructed Alpha version but also subsequent revisions in the much corrected handwritten text and in the printer's galleys. He treats these tentative drafts as part of the process of reaching out toward the coherent definitive text. Ribbans's analysis of such devices as the ambiguous role of the narrator, the use of free indirect style and direct dialogue, and the construction of distinctive ideolects leads to the heart of his study, the development of Gald s's characters.
The Edinburgh Companion to Women in Publishing, 1900–2020
Women's creative labour in publishing has often been overlooked. This book draws on dynamic new work in feminist book history and publishing studies to offer the first comparative collection exploring women's diverse, deeply embedded work in modern publishing. Highlighting the value of networks, collaboration, and archives, the companion sets out new ways of reading women's contributions to the production and circulation of global print cultures. With an international, intergenerational set of contributors using diverse methodologies, essays explore women working in publishing transatlantically, on the continent, and beyond the Anglosphere. The book combines new work on high-profile women publishers and editors alongside analysis of women's work as translators, illustrators, booksellers, advertisers, patrons, and publisher's readers; complemented by new oral histories and interviews with leading women in publishing today. The first collection of its kind, the companion helps establish and shape a thriving new research field.
A Further Range
The Spanish literature discussed in this volume falls into two main categories: the work of Galician novelist, short-story writer and critic, Emilia Pardo Bazan and the wider context of prose fiction and criticism during the period 1870 to 1935.
