Summary: View on Amazon[Cross-posted from New Books in Law] Please listen to the fascinating conversation I had with Susan Byrne, Associate Professor of Spanish and Director of Undergraduate Studies for Spanish at Yale University, about her new work, Law and History in Cervantes' Don Quixote (University of Toronto Press, 2013). Byrne leads us through a close reading of Cervantes' most famous work, revealing an overwhelming amount of legal details, all of which tie into early modern Spanish debates.
