New readings of specific texts and works of art engage mythological soundscapes, spaces of the sublime, monastic spaces of introspection, encyclopedias as spaces for memorializing old and new knowledge, and spaces of performance at public theatres and at court. In urban micro-spaces, the readers will encounter geotagging in Seville, surveillance in Madrid, and even the Neapolitan Our Lady of the Arch. \u003cbr\u003eEdited by specialists in the fields of Spanish and comparative literature, Mary E.
