Desde tiempos inmemoriales, los mitos y las leyendas han acompañado a la historia de España, a veces haciéndole sombra o incluso suplantándola. Estas narrativas crecen y se nutren con los miedos y las preocupaciones que operan en diversas épocas de transición y cambio o de inestabilidad y fragmentación sociopolítica. Discursos de seducción. El mito y la leyenda en la cultura española analiza una serie de mitos y leyendas peninsulares como legado cultural que se construye sobre procesos de seducción ideológicos y discursivos hasta imbricarse con la realidad. Mediante un examen de estas narrativas de seducción, este volumen nos sumerge en el ámbito de las pasiones para explorar nuevas perspectivas sobre el carácter fluido de la sociedad e identidad medieval, las manifestaciones culturales trasatlánticas en las postrimerías del periodo colonial, la relación entre género, raza e identidad nacional en la España contemporánea, y su explotación en los medios de comunicación y en el discurso político actual.

"Seafaring activity for trade and travel was dominant throughout the Spanish Empire, and in the worldview and imagination of its inhabitants, the specter of shipwreck loomed large. Shipwreck in the Early Modern Hispanic World probes this preoccupation by examining portrayals of nautical disasters in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Spanish literature and culture. The essays collected here showcase shipwreck's symbolic deployment to question colonial expansion and transoceanic trade; to critique the Christian enterprise overseas; to signal the collapse of dominant social order; and to relay moral messages and represent socio-political debates. The contributors find examples in poetry, theater, narrative fiction, and other print artifacts, and approach the topic variously through the lens of historical, literary, and cultural studies. Ultimately demonstrating how shipwrecks both shaped and destabilized perceptions of the Spanish Empire worldwide, this analytically rich volume is the first in Hispanic studies to investigate the darker side of mercantile and imperial expansion"--
