Reviews

In Cuerpos Plegables Victor Pueyo adds an important volume to the scholarship on the early modern monster. . . . The volume is nicely produced . . . [and] will be of interest not only to Spanish specialists, but to scholars of teratology in general. In fact, as a chapter in the rich history of the formation of the modern self, Pueyo claims to perform an 'autopsy of the double bodyof the subject' (12). Given his argument's resonances with debates regarding the embodied subject today, perhaps this book serves also as a societal vivisection. * RENAISSANCE QUARTERLY *
