Law, Literature and Political Philosophy in the Spanish Golden Age: A Reflection on Power
This collection of articles, thoroughly documented, analyses particular aspects of the Spanish 16th and 17th centuries. It discusses a range of topics, including the Catholic reason of state, anti-Machiavellianism, and royal power and its limits, from the point of view of Golden Age authors. This is a work where literature, law theory and political philosophy combine their efforts to offer an unusual portrait of power in Spanish society during a time of deep change.
Julio Juan Ruiz has focused on the intersection between law sciences and literature for ten years, devoting his research particularly to the Spanish Golden Period. He holds a PhD in Law Sciences from the Catholic University of La Plata and a Magister in Spanish Literature from the National University of Mar del Plata, Argentina, and is a Professor in Constitutional Law and Administrative Law in the School of Economy of the latter institution. He is a member of the Argentinian Hispanists Association and the Argentinian Society of Political Analysis, and has published articles in a number of journals, including Dicenda, Magazine of Hispanic Studies, Society and Discourse, and Mexican Journal of Law History, among others.
