The Comedia de Sepulveda survives in various 19th-century copies based on a lost 16th-century manuscript version. This edition reconstructs the original text, and argues for a date of composition of around 1565. The work consists of a series of variations on the theme of love and has strong parallels with Il Viluppo. The editor studies the relationship of the play to its source, its dramatic structure and the circumstances of performance.

This volume aims to show through various case studies how the interrelations between Jews, Muslims and Christians in Iberia were negotiated in the field of images, objects and architecture during the Later Middle Ages and Early Modernity. . By looking at the ways pre-modern Iberians envisioned diversity, we can reconstruct several stories, frequently interwoven with devotional literature, poetry or Inquisitorial trials, and usually quite different from a binary story of simple opposition. The book’s point of departure narrates the relationship between images and conversions, analysing the mechanisms of hybridity, and proposing a new explanation for the representation of otherness as the complex outcome of a negotiation involving integration.
