Book synopsis

Edición: Centro para la Edición de los Clásicos Espa?olesDistribución: Servicio Publicaciones. Universidad de ValladolidFocused on twosixteenth-century editions of a medieval Valencian author (Ausi?sMarch, 1400-59), this book examines how the material transformationsof early modern poetic texts at different stages in their publicationprocess?from the making of the printer?s copy, to the typesetting andediting of the book in the printing shop?entailed thorough changes inthe meaning of March's corpus. Printers Juan Navarro in Valencia and,especially, Carles Amorós in Barcelona were responsible for widelydisseminating Ausi?s March?s verses in Renaissance Spain while, at the same time, assimilating March?s works to other distinct poetics ofeven higher authority and influence. Notwithstanding the discrepancies between both editorial projects?one indebted with cancionero poetry,the other with classical models?the role of Petrarch?s vernacularpoetry in the overall shaping of both editions was paramount andreveals the existence of remarkably similar interpretive communitiesin the intellectual circles of the Duke of Calabria and the Duke ofSomma, sponsors of the volumes studied here.
