Subject, structure, and imagination in the Spanish discourse on modernity / C. Christopher Soufas, Jr.

• Introduction -- Part I: A "New Man" on the European scene: Spanish contributions to his fuller portrait -- 1. Lázaro de Tormes -- 2. Don Quijote -- 3. Segismundo -- 4. Don Juan -- 5. "Velázquez" -- Part II: The sublime and the beautiful -- 6. Feijoo and Jovellanos -- 7. Goya and Los caprichos -- 8. Don Juan and Don Juan Tenorio -- 9. Valera and Pepita Jiménez -- Conclusion: Modernity/Modernism.

• "Beginning with Spanish masterworks spanning from the 16th century and continuing until the turn of the 20th century, Subject, Structure, and Imagination in the Spanish Discourse on Modernity examines Spanish resistance to embracing the predominant European model of "the autonomous thinking subject." Spanish attitudes actually anticipate the critique of modernity which ushers in Modernism during the early decades of the 20th century. "--
