About this book
Only Castilian counts as Spanish literature in this survey; Catalan, Basque, Galician and the other languages of Spain are left out. An introductory chapter reminds readers that Seneca, Lucan, Martial and Quintilian were Spaniards, and traces the literature from its Roman roots to the Gothic period, weighing Arabic and Hebrew influence. James Fitzmaurice-Kelly gives most room to the heroic age, from the accession of Charles V to the death of Philip IV, with Cervantes, Lope de Vega and Calderón among its writers. The volume belongs to a series of short literary histories edited by Edmund Gosse.
