Spanish Literature is one of the most important expression of universal culture. Evolving as it did from Latin one thousand years ago, Spanish language became the speech of a people who had developed their particular raison d’etre because of the many cross-grow a very significant phenomenon of the vast Atlantic Ocean and reaching the Pacific and beyond. The Hispanic presence is felt in the award of the Nobel Prize for Literature which was given as many as ten times to Spanish language, five to the writers of the Continent and five to those of the Peninsula. Here in this book, Prof. Dey has dwelt upon some aspects of Spanish literature from the Golden Age to our own times with reference to many authors and critics throughout the centuries. In this appraisal a special interest has been taken to highlight the areas of literature where the contact with India has been of considerable importance.
