A broad-based, innovative survey of rewriting in several modalities: translation, adaptation, recycling, appropriation, and re-mediation, along with the effect of each on form and meaning, kind and canon, historical and discursive continuity, as well as the conceptualizing of gender. Essays on Du Bellay, Montaigne, La Ceppède, Tbéophile de Viau, Corneille, d'Aubignac, La Fontaine, Diderot, and recent Anglo-American translations of La Princesse de Cleves.

This Festschrift volume contains 28 refereed papers including personal memories, essays, and regular research papers by close collaborators and friends of José Meseguer to honor him on the occasion of his 65th birthday.
