Summary
  • "This compilation of essays centred on Hispanic literary and cultural criticism utilizes space as an operational concept, not only in its real-geographical sense, but in its metaphorical, theoretical and discursive manifestations, along with the related notions of the visible/invisible, dominant/dominated, empowered/powerless.
  • The essays range from colonial domination and international struggles over territorial claims, to a meditation on the politics of location, to the issue of spatial representation of mature-age women and gay men within a dialectic of visibility/invisibility in Spanish theatre and cinema."--Jacket.
