Heroic Forms by Stephen Rupp

Heroic Forms by Stephen Rupp

In Cervantes and the Literature of War, Stephen Rupp connects Cervantes's complex and inventive approach to literary genre and his many representations of early modern warfare.

‘Rupp’s book is original, thought provoking, and will make a significant contribution to the criticism of Cervantes’s literature on the topic of war and heroism’

- Eduardo Olid Guerrero (Hispania vol 99:02:2016)

‘Rupp’s book is a very solid, innovative, and intriguing study of Cervantes’s contributions to advances in genre development through the lens of a specific and very relevant topic that proves quite elucidating.’

- Susan Byrne (Renaissance Quarterly vol 69:01:2016)

‘A superb contribution to early modern Spanish studies… Rupp’s approach offers rich, thought-provoking, unique perspectives… Highly recommended.’

- E.H. Friedman (Choice vol 52:08:2015)

"This book contributes to the field by providing a unique cross-genre approach to Cervantes’ representation of warfare and heroism. Rupp’s analysis accurately portrays the conflictive readings of Cervantes’ characters, as well as his uneasy relationship with conventional literary form."

- Aaron M. Kahn, University of Sussex (Bulletin of Spanish Studies)

Stephen Rupp is an associate professor in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at the University of Toronto.
