Overview

This volume, ""Dos romances anÃ3nimos del siglo XVI, el Sueño de Feliciano de Silva, La muerte de Héctor,"" presents two anonymous Spanish romances from the 16th century, edited with an introduction and source material by Henry Thomas. These works offer insights into the popular literary tastes and cultural values of Renaissance Spain. The first romance, ""El Sueño de Feliciano de Silva,"" likely draws inspiration from the chivalric romances popular at the time. The second, ""La muerte de Héctor,"" adapts the classical tale of Hector's death from the Trojan War into a Spanish poetic form. Thomas's edition provides a valuable resource for scholars and students interested in Spanish Golden Age literature, offering a glimpse into the vibrant literary landscape of the period and the enduring appeal of classical themes adapted for a contemporary audience. This edition makes these relatively obscure works accessible, shedding light on a fascinating corner of Spanish literary history.
