Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the origins and evolution of medieval Spanish allegory, from its first appearance in the 13th century until its full development in the 15th century. The author argues that allegory in Spain was a sustained literary tradition, with roots in earlier Latin literature of the Iberian Peninsula. During the 15th century, the influence of French models modified the Spanish tradition, but did not alter its fundamental character. Through an analysis of representative texts, this book examines the types and methods of Spanish allegory, including panegyrics, erotic hells, visions, debates, and other allegorical machinery. The author demonstrates that the ideas expressed in the allegory of the period derive from the interaction of native Spanish elements with French and Italian influences. This book will be welcomed by scholars interested in medieval Spanish literature, the history of allegory, and comparative literature. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
