ABSTRACT
The Hispanic Issues project has become identified with the scrutiny of the historical shifting and development of modernity since its early manifestations in baroque Spain to its presence in post-Franco cultural studies, from colonial Iberian-American writing to the searches for Iberian-American identity in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, from the institutionalization of literary discourses in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Spain to the review of feminist, gay, and lesbian discourses in Spain and Iberian America, from the Peninsular politics of editing to film theory in the Spanish-speaking world. Up to now these have been the nodes of critical discourse in the series. The issue of post-modernity will be dealt with in a future volume.
