The Criminal Baroque
TEMPORARY Bergman looks at the representation of criminals in early modern Spanish theatre and the connection between criminality, the portrayal of criminal heroes on stage, and public displays of law enforcement within and outside the playhouse. His main purpose is to see to how Baroque spectacle (a term of art in theatre that refers to a particular event, often in expressions of popular culture) appears either to align itself, work against, or be independent of the social means of control of the day. His main argument is that that the propaganda power of early modern Spanish spectacle has been vastly overstated. Ted L. L. Bergman is a Lecturer in Spanish, University of St Andrews.
Lorca After Life
A reflection on Federico García Lorca's life, his haunting death, and the fame that reinvigorated the marvelous in the modern world "A galaxy of critical insights into the cultural shock waves circling and crisscrossing Lorca's execution and his unknown resting place, there is not a single book on Lorca like this one."--Andrés Zamora, Vanderbilt University There is something fundamentally unfinished about the life and work of Federico García Lorca (1898-1936), and not simply because his life ended abruptly. Noël Valis reveals how this quality gives shape to the ways in which he has been continuously re-imagined since his death. Lorca's execution at the start of the Spanish Civil War was not only horrific but transformative, setting in motion many of the poet's afterlives. He is intimately tied to both an individual and a collective identity, as the people's poet, a gay icon, and fabled member of a dead poets' society. The specter of his violent death continues to haunt everything connected to Lorca, fueling the desire to fill in the gaps in the poet's biography.

Poética del relato policiaco
El policiaco es uno de los géneros más populares de los últimos ciento cincuenta años y se muestra como una de las narrativas más fértiles y resistentes de los últimos tiempos. Es un género popular que, aunque ha recibido el desprecio de muchos, ha aportado a la Literatura con mayúsculas una estructuración novedosa de los hechos de la historia narrada y la incorporación de la figura del detective a la vida de las diversas generaciones lectoras y no lectoras del género. Este libro trata de estos aspectos, de los ingredientes constituyentes de lo policiaco, de su historia y de las cuestiones teórico- literarias más relevantes que nos ayudan a entenderlo mejor.
