Jones FOLLOWING IN THE TRADITION of ethnologist and folklorist Zora Neale Hurston, I have always been keenly aware of and compelled by—perhaps blindly, to a fault—the richness of black culture and its materiality, speech acts, and verve.

The first part examines the coro, a privileged space within a viceregal cathedral where ecclesiastical ritual devotion enacted a collective sensorial experience. This was a site where male

Abstract: I examine the first performance of Los empeños de una casa in the context of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz's experiences with finance and investment, arguing the centrality of the enslaved Juana de San José to her namesake's engagement with concepts of debt, worth, and price. I analyze these entanglements by considering economic historians' discussions of accounting's role in the formation of

Branding, Bondage, and Lope's Typeface Bulletin of the Comediantes Pub Date : 2024-05-21 John Slater
Abstract: In plays such as Los melindres de Belisa, Lope de Vega's characters pretend to be enslaved people who have been branded on the face. Their cosmetic brands or fingidos hierros act as signs within a system of figuration I call typeface. In Lope's typeface plays, hierros are removed easily but are undetectable as fake. These simulated brandings do not disfigure the characters pretending to be

Queering El valiente negro en Flandes Bulletin of the Comediantes Pub Date : 2024-05-21 Baltasar Fra-Molinero

This play is especially pertinent to these questions as its composition coincided with the intense debates that culminated in Philip III's Order of the Expulsion of the Moriscos from the Iberian Peninsula (1609)
