Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Renaissance and Baroque Poetry Analysis:
The journal emphasizes critical analysis of poetic works from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, examining both canonical and lesser-known poets, and their contributions to the literary tradition. - Cultural and Historical Contexts:
It investigates the socio-political, religious, and cultural factors that influenced poetry during these periods, linking literary outputs to broader historical narratives. - Intertextuality and Influence:
The journal explores intertextual relationships among poets, highlighting how earlier works influenced later ones, and examining the dialogues between different literary traditions. - Transatlantic Literary Exchanges:
It focuses on the transatlantic dialogues between Spain and its colonies, analyzing how colonial experiences shaped poetic forms and themes in both hemispheres. - Gender and Identity in Poetry:
The journal addresses themes of gender and identity, particularly in the context of women's contributions to poetry and the representation of marginalized voices within the literary canon. - Poetic Forms and Innovations:
It examines the evolution of poetic forms, including sonnets, ballads, and other structures, and discusses innovations in style and technique introduced by poets during this era.
Trending and Emerging
- Interdisciplinary Approaches:
There is an increasing trend towards interdisciplinary studies that integrate insights from history, cultural studies, and gender studies, enhancing the understanding of poetic texts within broader contexts. - Poetry and Censorship:
Recent works have increasingly explored the theme of censorship in poetry, particularly in colonial contexts, highlighting how political and social controls affected literary expression. - Global Perspectives on Hispanic Poetry:
The journal is increasingly embracing global perspectives, examining the impact of Hispanic poetry beyond traditional borders, including its influence on and interactions with other literary traditions. - Exploration of Marginalized Voices:
There is a growing emphasis on the exploration of marginalized voices within the poetic canon, particularly women and indigenous poets, reflecting a more inclusive approach to literary scholarship. - Focus on Poetic Form and Aesthetics:
Recent publications have shown a heightened interest in the aesthetics of poetry, including the study of form, style, and the sensory experience of poetry, indicating a shift towards more formalist analyses.
Declining or Waning
- Focus on Traditional Canonical Poets:
There appears to be a decreasing emphasis on traditional canonical figures such as Garcilaso and Quevedo, with more recent issues exploring a broader array of poets, including those from colonial contexts and lesser-known authors. - Static Historical Narratives:
The journal has started to move away from purely historical narratives surrounding the poets and their works, indicating a decline in interest in strictly biographical approaches in favor of thematic and interdisciplinary analyses. - Limited Exploration of Non-Poetic Forms:
There is a noticeable reduction in discussions surrounding non-poetic literary forms from the same periods, such as prose or drama, suggesting a waning interest in comparative literature approaches. - Underrepresentation of Contemporary Resonances:
Recent issues have shown less engagement with how Renaissance and Baroque poetry influences contemporary literature and culture, indicating a trend away from modern relevance discussions.
