Boston University: Printed Afterlives: Early Hispanic Books and Manuscripts in the 19th Century

Printed Afterlives: Early Hispanic Books and Manuscripts in the 19th Century

Friday, May 7, from 10am to 5pm Eastern Time

This symposium brings together scholars of medieval Iberia and colonial Latin America to reflect on the editing of early Hispanic books in the nineteenth century. By tackling questions of nation-building, temporality, historicity and materiality, we aim to inspire dialogue across traditional lines of periodization about how the practices and precepts of nineteenth-century philology have contributed to narratives of the premodern Hispanic past.
