Description - Critical Practices in Post-Franco Spain by Silvia Lopez
This volume offers a sample of Spanish critical work in literary theory and cultural studies. Like all critical histories, Spain's is political: philology dominated the critical scene during the Franco years, and after Franco, this hegemony has been contested by semiotics, poststructuralism, psychoanalysis and feminism. Without trying to represent all the theoretical projects presently underway in Spanish criticism, this book opens a window on the vast field of new critical practices in Spain, and provides a general picture of influential theoretical currents. The essays collected here range widely in topic and style, and they reflect a new generation's preoccupation with critical problems that go beyond the field of literary studies. The authors focus on new discourse in various print and electronic media, on the discursive construction of the museum space, and on literary theory as it confronts issues of translation, subjectivity, writing and narratology. Jenaro Talens is the author of "The Branded Eye: Bunuel's 'Un Chien Andalou".
