Fictionalizing heterodoxy

More about the book

The information overload produced by the printing press and the new forms of the structuring of knowledge are echoed in fictional works. The essays assembled in this book study the textualization of problematic forms of knowledge in medieval and early modern Spanish literature. Literary Works like the Libro buen amor , La Lozana Andaluza , or the Guzmán de Alfarache are read against the backdrop of scientific developments of their times.
