More about the book

Exploring the intersection of space and imperialism, this book analyzes how Lope de Vega's national history plays utilize historical landscapes to reflect and legitimize Spain's imperial ambitions. It argues that these theatrical settings not only depict the past but also serve as a blueprint for Spain's expansionist trajectory, shaping the narrative of its imperial history. Through this lens, the work highlights the significance of geography in understanding the cultural and political dynamics of Spain's empire.
