It represents not only the first collection to focus exclusively on the phenomenon of realism within the context of modern Spanish literature in more than a quarter century, but also the first to be written in English. Imagined Truths appears at a significant moment of renewed interest in realism as a literary, historical, and cultural phenomenon. The essays in this collection address a broad range of authors, works, and topics from an exploration of the continued relevance of Cervantes' Don Quixote to Juan Marse's twenty-first century detective fiction, and they focus on the various ways in which we understand and process narratives as representative of a certain kind of reality. In addition to their valuable analyses of particular works and authors, the essays constitute a much-needed scholarly dialogue that expands our understanding of the unique place of realism in Spain's cultural history."-- SN - 978-1-4875-0517-2 sidottu KW - 1800-1899 KW - Spanish literature : 19th century : History and criticism.
