Beschreibung des Verlags

“Emilia Pardo Bazán (1851–1921) was the most prolific and influential woman writer of late nineteenth-century Spain,” write the editors of this volume in the MLA's Approaches to Teaching World Literature series. Contending with the critical literary, cultural, and social issues of the period, Pardo Bazán’s novels, novellas, short stories, essays, plays, travel writing, and cookbooks offer instructors countless opportunities to engage with a variety of critical frameworks. The wide range of topics in the author’s works, from fashion to science and technology to gender equality, and the brilliance of her literary style make Pardo Bazán a compelling figure in the classroom.


Part 1, “Materials,” provides biographical and critical resources, an overview of Pardo Bazán’s vast and diverse oeuvre, and a literary-historical time line. It also reviews secondary sources, editions and translations, and digital resources. The twenty-three essays in part 2, “Approaches,” explore various issues that are central to teaching Pardo Bazán’s works, including the author’s engagement with contemporary literary movements, feminism and gender, nation and the late Spanish empire, Spanish and Galician identities, and nineteenth-century scientific and medical discourses. Film adaptations and translations of Pardo Bazán’s works are also addressed. Highlighting the artistic, social, and intellectual currents of Pardo Bazán’s writings, this volume will assist instructors who wish to teach the author’s works in courses on world literature, nineteenth-century literature, and gender studies as well as in Spanish-language courses.
