Cuatrocientos años después de su publicación, el Quijote cervantino sigue ejerciendo en el mundo entero una peculiar fascinación que se refleja en las más diversas expresiones artísticas. El presente volumen pretende contribuir a los estudios de recepción de la obra de Miguel de Cervantes desde un enfoque multidisciplinar e internacional, analizando la presencia de su obra y, en especial, de Don Quijote de la Mancha, durante los siglos XX y XXI.Los trabajos aquí editados se refieren a la figura de Don Quijote como mito literario, recogiendo textos de autores de diferentes países que estudian la impronta del autor manchego en ámbitos y géneros tan diversos como la literatura (novela de ficción y novela histórica, teatro, literatura infantil, novela gráfica y cómic), la música (jazz, ópera, cantata escénica, música incidental), los medios audiovisuales (cine, televisión, publicidad), la filosofía y la historia, centrando el foco de atención en la cultura occidental, pero sin olvidar la presencia de Cervantes en otras culturas, como la oriental o la árabe. A modo de anexo se publica, además, un texto inédito que hasta ahora era solo accesible en lengua árabe: el prólogo a la traducción a dicha lengua del Quijote, publicado aquí por vez primera en castellano.

A History of Irish Working-Class Writing provides a wide-ranging and authoritative chronicle of the writing of Irish working-class experience. Ground-breaking in scholarship and comprehensive in scope, it is a major intervention in Irish Studies scholarship, charting representations of Irish working-class life from eighteenth-century rhymes and songs to the novels, plays and poetry of working-class experience in contemporary Ireland. There are few narrative accounts of Irish radicalism, and even fewer that engage 'history from below'. This book provides original insights in these relatively untilled fields. Exploring workers' experiences in various literary forms, from early to late capitalism, the twenty-two chapters make this book an authoritative and substantial contribution to Irish studies and English literary studies generally.

Das Interesse am Mythos ist aus der europäischen Kultur- und Literaturgeschichte nicht wegzudenken. Es hat seinen Niederschlag in einer beinahe unüberschaubaren Vielzahl wissenschaftlicher Mythostheorien sowie in einer vielgestaltigen literarischen und künstlerischen Mythenrezeption gefunden. Dass dieses Interesse dabei nicht zuletzt dem Mythos als Zeugnis des Fremden gilt, ist die zentrale These der Studie. Mit dem neu eingeführten Begriff der mythologischen Alterität soll in diesem Sinne eine - bislang in ihrer Bedeutung sowie in ihrer Produktivität unterschätzte - Konstante im neuzeitlichen Mythosverständnis bzw. eine Gemeinsamkeit verschiedener Mythosauffassungen in den Fokus gerückt werden. So wird zum einen gezeigt, dass zahlreiche Theorien des Mythos (von Giambattista Vico und David Hume bis zu René Girard und Hans Blumenberg) ihre Gegenstände als Zeugnisse des kulturell oder auch des radikal Fremden beschreiben und interpretieren. Zum anderen wird anhand verschiedenartiger Beispiele aus der englischen Literatur vom 19. bis zum frühen 21. Jahrhundert erläutert, inwiefern auch in der literarischen Mythenrezeption das Fremde bzw. Differenzen von Eigenem und Fremdem thematisch und formal virulent werden.

A Handbook of Editing Early Modern Texts provides a series of answers written by more than forty editors of diverse texts addressing the 'how-to's' of completing an excellent scholarly edition. The Handbook is primarily a practical guide rather than a theoretical forum; it airs common problems and offers a number of solutions to help a range of interested readers, from the lone editor of an unedited document, through to the established academic planning a team-enterprise, multi-volume re-editing of a canonical author. Explicitly, this Handbook does not aim to produce a linear treatise telling its readers how they 'should' edit. Instead, it provides them with a thematically ordered collection of insights drawn from the practical experiences of a symposium of editors. Many implicit areas of consensus on good practice in editing are recorded here, but there are also areas of legitimate disagreement to be charted. The Handbook draws together a diverse range of first person narratives detailing the approaches taken by different editors, with their accompanying rationales, and evaluations of the benefits and problems of their chosen methods. The collection's aim is to help readers to read modern editions more sensitively, and to make better-informed decisions in their own editorial projects.

Tilottama Rajan illuminates a crisis of representation within romanticism, evident in the proliferation of stylistically and structurally unsettled literary texts that resist interpretation in terms of a unified meaning. The Supplement of Reading investigates the role of the reader both in romantic literary texts and in the hermeneutic theory that has responded to and generated such texts. Rajan considers how selected works by Coleridge, Wordsworth, Blake, Shelley, Godwin, and Wollstonecraft explore the problem of understanding in relation to interpretive difference, including the differences produced by gender, class, and history.

World literature and translation, the world and the literary field as well as migration, translingual writing and hybridity are the topics of the present contributions to Slavic literatures of the present. The book combines analyzes of texts that have been written in Slavic, but also in non-Slavic languages or in several languages at the same time. Thus, works created in Russian, Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian, Polish, Czech, German, Tatar, English and French are associated with each other. The texts refer to global literary traditions, events and ways of life. However, they also respond to different local cultural and historical developments and social structures. On the one hand, the volume offers access to concepts of world literature and enriches the current debate on case studies from the Eastern European and Slavic contexts. On the other hand, he extends the Slavic discussion by dealing with theories and methods of world literature and the possibilities of their application to Slavic texts.
