Chapters on Magic in Spanish Literature by Samuel M. Waxman is a comprehensive exploration of the role of magic and the supernatural in Spanish literature. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of magic in Spanish literature, including the use of magic in medieval romances, the role of witches and sorcerers in Spanish literature, and the representation of magic in modern Spanish literature.Waxman draws on a wide range of literary texts, from medieval ballads and romances to modern novels and plays, to illustrate the various ways in which magic has been used in Spanish literature. He explores the cultural and historical contexts in which these works were written, and shows how the use of magic reflects larger social and political concerns.Throughout the book, Waxman engages with a variety of critical and theoretical perspectives, including psychoanalytic theory, feminist theory, and postcolonial theory. He also provides close readings of individual texts, highlighting the ways in which magic functions within these works and the significance of these representations for our understanding of Spanish literature more broadly.Overall, Chapters on Magic in Spanish Literature is an essential resource for anyone interested in the role of magic and the supernatural in Spanish literature, as well as for scholars and students of literary studies, cultural studies, and comparative literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
