Title: Imperial Tapestries
Description: Imperial Tapestries explores how key authors of early modern Italy and Spain questioned Habsburg authority through "imperial texts"--Texts that call attention to their organizational process. In so doing, the study offers innovative insights into the politics of such classic authors as Ludovico Ariosto, Garcilaso de la Vega, Jorge de Montemayor, Miguel de Cervantes, and María de Zayas as it teases out the nuances of their often indirect portrayals of their relationship with the Crown.--Publisher description.
