Publisher's Synopsis
SUNY at Buffalo professor David R. Castillo examines the nature of truth in the works of Cervantes and modern popular culture from a hard-left perspective in six essays with a foreword by William Egginton. Two new essays and four previously published and updated for inclusion in this book are organized into two parts, "Truth in Cervantine Fiction" and "Cervantine Readings of Popular Culture." Castillo weighs in on today's political climate and social conversations through the lens of his knowledge of Spanish Golden Age literature and culture. Dr. Castillo is a graduate of the University of Granada and received the Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota.
