Trece por docena
Texto inédito del P. Valentín de Céspedes s. j. (1595-1668), el Trece por docena es una contundente y áspera respuesta a la Censura de la elocuencia publicada en 1648 por otro jesuíta, el P. José de Ormaza. Esta controversia, en la que también terció Ambrosio Bondía, entra de lleno en la práctica concreta de los predicadores y los problemas cotidianos con los que se enfrentaban en la elaboración de sus sermones: dónde encontrar sus materiales, cómo utilizarlos, qué importancia debe otorgarse a lugares y autoridades, cómo plantear las cuestiones para probar los asuntos, qué son los conceptos y qué utilidad puede tener el estilo conceptuoso, cuáles son los límites de la actio, etc. Pero más allá del debate sobre la oratoria que Céspedes desarrolla con punzante ironía y constante buen humor, el Trece por docena aborda también desde una perspectiva distinta algunas de las cuestiones básicas de la literatura de su época: los límites de la retórica y la adecuación del estilo lacónico al discurso, la teatralidad del predicador como «comediante a lo divino», y, sobre todo, la problemática del conceptismo, la agudeza y el ingenio.
The Transatlantic Hispanic Baroque
Gathering a group of internationally renowned scholars, this volume presents cutting-edge research on the complex processes of identity formation in the transatlantic world of the Hispanic Baroque. Identities in the Hispanic world are deeply intertwined with sociological concepts such as class and estate, with geography and religion (i.e. the mixing of Spanish Catholics with converted Jews, Muslims, Dutch and German Protestants), and with issues related to the ethnic diversity of the world’s first transatlantic empire and its various miscegenations. Contributors to this volume offer the reader diverse vantage points on the challenging problem of how identities in the Hispanic world may be analyzed and interpreted. A number of contributors relate earlier processes and formations to Neo-Baroque and postmodern conceptualisations of identity. Given the strong interest in identity and identity-formation within contemporary cultural studies, the book will be of interest to a broad group of readers from the fields of law, geography, history, anthropology and literature.

Conscience on Stage
It is no accident that some variation of the question 'What should I do?' appears in over three-quarters of the comedic plays of the Spanish Golden Age. Casuistical dialogue was a concern, even an obsession, of Spanish playwrights during the seventeenth century, many of whom were educated by Jesuit casuists. Conscience on Stage is a study of casuistry or case morality as the foundation for a poetics of seventeenth-century Spanish >em>comedias. Hilaire Kallendorf examines the Jesuit upbringing and casuistical education of major playwrights of the Spanish Golden Age, many of whom were also priests, and introduces the vocabulary of casuistry, as expressed in both confessors' manuals and in stag...
