- Double-weighted statement
- This extensive study proposed for double-weighting is the result of nine years' work, and builds on an archive of almost entirely unstudied primary sources to investigate Spain’s place in the turn-of-the-century British popular imagination. An empirically-grounded cultural and material history, it traces the extraordinary transformation that took place in British knowledge about the country and its regions, languages and cultures between the tercentenary of the Spanish Armada in 1888 and 1914. Ranging across work by novelists, travel writers, journalists, scholars, artists and performers, it argues that Edwardian knowledge of Spain was more extensive, complex and diverse than we have imagined.
