Melancholy and Culture: Diseases of the Soul in Golden Age Spain

(Part of the Iberian and Latin American Studies Series)

No Customer Reviews

Despite melancholy's long tenure in European history, little attention has been paid to the subject of melancholy during the Spanish Golden Age, in spite of its enormous importance to Spanish thinking and culture. This volume demonstrates that the melancholy that prevailed in this historical period is an indispensable link in a chain which may help us to further understand the appearance of sadness and malcontent in Europe at the dawn of modernity...
