Icons of the Luso-Hispanic World

Edited by Federico Bonaddio
Boydell & Brewer is delighted to announce a new series under the general editorship of Professor Stephen M. Hart. The Icons series will primarily include books of no more than 80,000 words by single authors on a broad range of historical individuals and events which have had a significant impact on the course of human history and whose influence is still felt today—the writers of Roman Spain; literary heroes; kings and queens; saints; the age of exploration; literary movements; individual artists, musicians, philosophers, film directors, footballers, popes; and more.
Possible subjects include: Martial, El Cid, Alfonso X, Philip II, Charles V, Isabella I of Castile, Vasco da Gama, Luís de Camões, Francisco Pizarro, Lope de Vega, Saint Teresa of Ávila, Pedro I and Pedro II of Brazil, Machado de Assis, Alejo Carpentier, Che Guevara, Eva Perón, Velázquez, Goya, Picasso, Manuel de Falla, Pedro Almodóvar, Pele, and Pope Francis.
Icons books will be based on the most up-to-date scholarly research but written in plain English for the benefit of the non-specialist reader as well as academics looking for a concise introduction to a particular literary, cultural, or historical figure or movement.
