Hercules and the King of Portugal investigates how representations of masculinity figure in the fashioning of Spanish national identity, scrutinizing ways that gender performances of two early modern male icons--Hercules and King Sebastian--are structured to express enduring nationhood. The classical hero Hercules features prominently in Hispanic foundational fictions and became intimately associated with the Hapsburg monarchy in the early sixteenth century. King Sebastian of Portugal (1554-78), both during his lifetime and after his violent death, has been inserted into his own land's charter myth, even as competing interests have adapted his narratives to promote Spanish power. The hybrid oral and written genre of poetic Spanish theater, as purveyor and shaper of myth, was well situated to stage and resolve dilemmas relating both to lineage determined by birth and performance of masculinity, in ways that would ideally uphold hierarchy. Dian Fox's ideological analysis exposes how the two icons are subject to political manipulations in seventeenth-century Spanish theater and other media. Fox finds that officially sanctioned and sometimes popularly produced narratives are undercut by dynamic social and gendered processes: "Hercules" and "Sebastian" slip outside normative discourses and spaces to enact nonnormative behaviors and unreproductive masculinities.

Revolutionary feminism, queer, and trans activist movements are traversing Latin America and the Caribbean. Bodies on the Front Lines situates recent performances and protests within legacies of homegrown gender and sexual rights activism from the South. Performances—enacted in public spaces and intimate venues, across national borders, and through circulating hashtags and digital media—play crucial roles in the elaboration, auto-theorization, translation, and reception of feminist, queer, and trans activism. Movements such as Argentina's NiUnaMenos (Not One Less) have brought masses of protesters and “artivists” on the streets of major cities in Latin America and beyond to denounce gender violence and demand gender, sexual, and reproductive rights. The volume’s contributors draw from rich legacies of theater, performance, and activism in the region, as well as decolonial and intersectional theorizing, to demonstrate the ways that performance practices enable activists to sustain their movements. The chapters engage diverse perspectives from Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, transnational Central America, Peru, Puerto Rico, and Mexico. Rather than taking an approach that simplifies complexities among states, Bodies on the Front Lines takes seriously the geopolitical stakes of examining Latin America and the Caribbean as a heterogeneous site of nations and networks. In chapters covering this wide geographical area, leading scholars in the fields of theater and performance studies showcase the aesthetic, social, and political work of performance in generating and fortifying gender and sexual activism in the Americas.

No ha habido confusión más grande sobre la tierra en cuestión de historia de la humanidad, que la generada por nosotros, los humanos en las historias relatadas en algunos de los textos sagrados, son, historias maquinadas, con un firme propósito y las cuales se desenvolvieron en un mundo que ya no existe y cuya pasada existencia fue borrada de los anales de la historia como parte de un plan maquiavélico que llevara a los hijos del quinto sol hacia su propia perdición. Pero no siempre fue así, en el inicio de los hijos del quinto sol, maestros encarnados, señores de la luz entregaron a los humanos los rollos que contenían la información del hombre sobre la tierra, los humanos los recibieron con las instrucciones pertinentes; no cambiaras, no modificaras, no mutilaras, no alteraras letra, palabra, frase o párrafo; así dijeron los señores de la luz. Pero, a los humanos no les importo la advertencia de los señores de la luz y del fuego, y desobedecieron. Esto ya lo sabían los dioses desde antes de la creación del hombre, fue entonces cuando los señores de la luz y del fuego dieron órdenes de esculpir en piedra dura la verdadera historia de la humanidad, en un lenguaje de fuego, tan obscuro e incomprensible, que, solo quien osare iluminarlas con la luz de su conciencia podría vislumbrar la verdad, solo aquellos elegidos, que un día, harán sonar la quinta trompeta, de la cual se escuchará la verdad como de los propios labios del señor. Fue así, que mis antepasados, grandes titanes de la lemuria, divinos hermafroditas, gigantes de cinco metros de altura, con sus manos artesanales dieron forma y figura a lo que hoy es la piedra del sol, en cuyo rostro devela la historia del hombre desde el inicio de la creación del Adán Kadmon. El conocimiento de la conciencia es sabiduría pura, perenne et universalis. Este conocimiento está prohibido al ser humano, muchos hombres lo han manifestado, y, aunque este conocimiento se manifiesta en la conciencia del hombre, este conocimiento no es individual, es libre, no se debe reclamar un derecho sobre él, nació para el hombre y es tan antiguo como el mismo hombre sobre la tierra.

With the rise of nationalism, and with it the nation-state in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, so arose new polemical issues. As the Spanish Empire expanded in the sixteenth century, theologians, jurists, artists and politicians commented on the morality and legitimacy of the imperial enterprise. With the increase in power of successive Spanish sovereigns from the Catholic Monarchs to Philip II (1556–98), followed by the decadence of the state through the reign of Charles II (1665–1700), political participants and observers alike put their thoughts on paper for mass dissemination. The study of epic poetry, poetry, drama, novels, rhetoric, imperial administrative documents and religion, reveals a plethora of means by which these people conveyed thoughts and opinions, often negatively critical, concerning Spain’s monarchs, their imperial policies, the Catholic Church, the role of the nobility in government, and societal limitations. Providing innovative literary interpretations and revealing newly-discovered archival material, experts from US and UK universities have contributed original scholarly studies to this volume which delve deeper than academia has thus far into the operations of imperial Spain and the reactions of the people of the time. Studying works by the likes of Alonso de Ercilla, Juan de la Cueva, Miguel de Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Francisco de Quevedo, and Calderón de la Barca, among others, On Wolves and Sheep explores the various methods used in the Spanish Golden Age to voice political opinions and ideas.

The mythological, folkloric, and religious beliefs of Western culture have resulted in a long and ongoing history of esoteric themes in theatre from the Middle Ages to the present in Spain and the America. Now Robert Lima, a noted comparatist, brings to bear on this material his wide knowledge of the world of the occult. Lima defines the terms "occult" and "occultism" broadly to embrace the many ways in which humans have sought to fathom a secret knowledge held to be accessible only through such supernatural agencies as alchemy, angelology, asceticism, astrology, demonolatry, divination, ecstasy, magic, necromancy, possession, Santeria, séances, voudoun, and witchcraft. The dramatic works covered range from medieval materializations of Hell to the Golden Age plays of Lope de vega, Tirso de Molina, and Calderón de la Barca, to modern stage works by Valle-Inclán, García Lorca, Casona, Miras, and a number of significant Afro-Brazilian and Caribbean dramatists. The concluding comprehensive bibliography of the drama of the occult is invaluable.
