Beginning with early Spanish attitudes towards Pushkin, the author offers a reassessment of the evidence in this long-neglected area of investigation.

Reviews

“I am sure that Margaret Tejerizo’s monograph will be an excellent, rigorous and highly valuable contribution that will impact the research in the field of Hispanic-Russian Literary Relationships.” – Professor Jesús García Gabaldón, President of the Spanish Association of Slavists

“I highly recommend this book as it is a great achievement in contemporary Iberian-Slavic Comparative Studies, one that in fact breaks the silence between two worlds.” – Dr. José Eduardo Franco, Vice President of the International Society for Iberian-Slavonic Studies
