A Companion to <i>Celestina</i>: The Renaissance Society of America, cartea 9

Enrique Fernandez
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 iul 2017
In A Companion to Celestina, Enrique Fernandez brings together twenty-three hitherto unpublished contributions on the Tragicomedia de Calisto y Melibea, popularly known as Celestina (c. 1499) written by leading experts who summarize, evaluate and expand on previous studies. The resulting chapters offer the non-specialist an overview of Celestina studies. Those who already know the field will find state of the art studies filled with new insights that elaborate on or depart from the well-established currents of criticism. Celestina's creation and sources, the parody of religious and erudite traditions, the treatment of magic, prostitution, the celestinesca and picaresque genre, the translations into other languages as well as the adaptations into the visual arts (engravings, paintings, films) are some of the topics included in this companion.

Contributors are: Beatriz de Alba-Koch, Raúl Álvarez Moreno, Consolación Baranda, Ted L. Bergman, Patrizia Botta, José Luis Canet, Fernando Cantalapiedra, Ricardo Castells, Ivy Corfis, Manuel da Costa Fontes, Enrique Fernandez, José Luis Gastañaga Ponce de León, Ryan D. Giles, Yolanda Iglesias, Gustavo Illades Aguiar, Kathleen V. Kish, Bienvenido Morros Mestres, Devid Paolini, Antonio Pérez Romero, Amaranta Saguar García, Connie Scarborough, Joseph T. Snow, and Enriqueta Zafra.

Recenzii

“the book achieves its objective of offering a comprehensive companion to one of Europe's premodern masterpieces and will be of particular value to nonspecialist anglophone readers.” - Rachel Scott, King's College London, in: Renaissance Quarterly 72:1 (spring 2019), pp. 375-376
“The companion deserves a place of honor in courses related to Celestina […]. It will make an important addition to the library of any medievalist and early modernist, and should be in every institutional library.” - Sol Miguel-Prendes, Wake Forest University, in: Sixteenth Century Journal 49:4 (Winter 2018), pp. 1182-1184
