The development of my poetry has been and is the development of an encounter with an idea about God, the great Spanish poet and Nobel Prize winner Juan Ramón Jiménez wrote several years before his death. An early twentieth-century pioneer in the use of free verse, Jiménez has always expressed himself through mystery and profundity. The author presents a fervent landscape of primordial imagery in an attempt to restore mystical poetry to its rightful place in literature and art. For anyone not familiar with the writings of this modern master, these austere and radiant poems, translated by the poet and scholar Antonio de Nicolás and presented alongside the original Spanish, will demonstrate why Jiménez is considered one of the masters of twentieth-century poetry. To what may this writing be compared? Whitman's 'Song of Myself' comes to mind, but it is not with any intention of taking away from Whitman's achievement that I declare a preference for the poetry of Juan Ramón Jiménez ...

"Te Presento a Jesucristo" contiene algunas de las vivencias que el Rev. Samuel MacAdam ha tenido con el Señor Jesús durante gran parte de su carrera ministerial. Han sido escritas como una evidencia de la realidad de la vida cristiana y como un testimonio para aquellos que no conocen a Jesucristo. Pero también para compartir con el creyente de hoy aquellas otras facetas propias de Jesús, que tal vez podrían ser desconocidas para algunos de ellos. Cada una de ellas tiene su propia connotación en la vida del autor, y es su testimonio acerca de la personalidad de JESUCRISTO no pretendiendo establecer un patrón de conducta evangélica como una forma personal.

The last decade has witnessed a striking upsurge of interest in Iberian hagiography. In painting and the fine arts through to poetic and narrative treatments composed in Castilian and Catalan, the legacies of Christ, Mary, and the saints have been approached from a range of perspectives and subjected to detailed critical scrutiny. This book, which focuses specifically on the application of theoretical and methodological approaches to analysis, asks what scholars of early Iberian hagiography can bring to the analysis of the sacred past and how the study of the discipline can be taken forward innovatively in the future. Its fourteen essays, each focusing on a different aspect of composition, seek in particular to explore interdisciplinary methodologies and the ways in which they intersect with broader discourses in other branches of research.
