The late 19th- and early 20th-century Spanish literature discussed in this volume falls into two main categories: the work of Galician novelist, short-story writer and critic, Amilia Pardo Bazan and the wider context of prose fiction and criticism during the period 1870 to 1935. These two areas represent the main spheres of interest of the distinguished scholar and critic Maurice Hemingway, to whose memory this volume is dedicated.
