María de Zayas

About this book

The past two decades have witnessed an unprecedented interest in women writers of the Spanish Golden Age. Among the many who have been discovered and rediscovered in recent years, none was more prominent in her own time than Maria de Zayas y Sotomayor, and none has received more attention from modern critics. Maria de Zayas: The Dynamics of Discourse is the first collection of essays dedicated solely to the work of this important figure in Spanish letters.
