 Semester:   Spring 

|

 Year offered:  2012 

 

 

 

In the beginning was the book. From his library the hidalgo, bent on writing himself into History, sallies forth into a world of actors, storytellers, and readers. How do books come by their power to shape individuals and their world? We read Cervantes’ masterpiece alongside seminal Renaissance works his characters and readers knew (Erasmus, Vives, More, Castiglione), and modern studies of reading and print culture.

Course conducted in Spanish.
