"This new English translation from the Castilian of Montalvo's chapter in The Adventures of Esplandian, first known printing in 1510, tells the fable of Queen Calafia and her island of California filled with gold, Amazon warriors and unusual beasts. Included are rare medieval woodcuts from 16th century French folio editions of Amadis de Gaule. Most historians believe Montalvo's popular book about the coast of the New World portrayed in this Spanish tale caused the Western frontier to be named California. The Castilian writer created a battle in which Christian knights defended Constantinople against the island of California's Amazon forces. Today, 500 years later, this 16th century mythical conflict still holds lessons about negotiation and tolerance, as well as feminine power and humor"--Cover.

In Queen Calafia's Paradise, Ken Scambray explains that California offers Italian American protagonists a unique cultural landscape in which to define what it means to be an American and how Italian American protagonists embark on a voyage to reconcile their Old World heritage with modern American society. In Pasinetti's From the Academy Bridge (1970), Scambray analyzes the influence of Pasinetti's diverse California landscape upon his protagonist. Scambray argues that any reading of Madalena's Confetti for Gino (1959), set in San Diego's Little Italy, must take into account Madalena's homosexuality and his little known homosexual World War II novel, The Invisible Glass (1950). In his chapters covering John Fante's Los Angeles fiction, Scambray explores the Italian American's quest to locate a home in Southern California. Ken Scambray teaches courses in North American Italian literature and Los Angeles fiction at the University of La Verne.

Excerpt from The Origin and the Meaning of the Name California: Calafia the Queen of the Island of California, Title Page of Las Sergas Before the acquisition of California from Mexico, 1848, there had been several attempts to declare the origin and the meaning of the name california, and in subsequent years the subject was revived. The proposed solutions indicate that the matter has not been so fully or so clearly presented to our people as it might be; and there fore we have undertaken the task Of tracing the history of the name, and have ventured to give a meaning to this and associated names. For this purpose we present such of the modern explanations as we have access to, from Robert Dudley, 1630-47, to authorities as late as 1903. We exhibit the use Of the name in early charts and in early Span ish documents and narratives to the end of the seventeenth century. The first recent historian to point to the source of the name was George Ticknor, in his History of Spanish Literature.
