En 1895, Miguel de Unamuno a entrepris d'expliquer aux Espagnols le caractère particulier de leur pays. Les cinq essais formant cet ouvrage s'intitulent : La tradition éternelle - La race historique : la Castille - L'esprit castillan - Mystique et humanisme - Sur le marasme présent de l'Espagne. À cette époque le nationalisme spirituel (casticismo) exaltait superstitieusement la race (casta) et tout ce qui était marqué par elle. Unamuno était alors socialiste et cosmopolite. Aussi s'était-il attaché à démystifier cette notion de casta en montrant comment l'histoire et la géographie ont façonné le peuple de Castille et par conséquent sa culture. Après sa crise religieuse de 1898, Unamuno a changé de métaphysique. Il est devenu le champion du «sentiment tragique de la vie». Les analyses du jeune Miguel de Unamuno constituent encore de nos jours un important document sur l'Espagne castillane.

Gender, Sexuality and Colonial Modernities considers the ways in which modernity was constructed, in all its incompleteness, through colonialism. Using a variety of archival resources and equally diverse methodologies, the authors trace modernity's unstable foundations in the slippages and ruptures of colonial gender and sexual politics. As a whole, the essays illustrate that modern colonial regimes are never self-evidently hegemonic, but are always in process - subject to disruption and contest - and never finally accomplished; and are therefore unfinished business.
