This edition of Antonio Machado's work offers a complete revision of the interpretations advanced by critics on the first version of Soledades (1903). Based on Machado's original edition it will be the only reliable text on the market of this work, the very embodiment of Spanish modernism. It will offer, as well as the text, a substantial analysis of the changes made for the second edition of 1907 that reveal the progressive influence of Modernismo on Machado's conceptionsUsing new theoretical models, the editor has been able to tell us more about Machado's poetic practice, his evolution as a poet and, consequently, more about the development of Symbolism in Spain than has previously been possible.The text will be useful to specialists of Machado and the period (18901910) and to postgraduates and final-year students working on the period.

Poems to Lisi is presented here as an undergraduate student text with parallel-text English verse translationsThis edition of Quevedo's Poems to Lisi is a successor to the same editor's original text in Exeter Hispanic Texts, which only contained the Spanish text of the poems (published in 1988). Rather than reprint that edition, the editor has chosen to make the text more widely available by setting his own English verse translations alongside the Spanish originals. It is intended to provide undergraduates in Hispanic Studies with an accessible edition of a key work of the Spanish Golden Age. The translations are close enough to the originals to be of value to those who have an adequate knowledge of Spanish, while the rendering of the poems into English verse (mainly blank verse sonnets) will enable those lacking such a knowledge to read them as poems in their own right.
