EXCHANGES CRISIS AND CLIMATE READINGS ON EARLY...

Since 2004  themes of the Global and Climate have percolated into Hispanic Studies. However 
the discipline lacks a comprehensive perspective regarding the analysis of representations of
expansion and crisis in early modern literature. This book addresses part of that by focusing
on the impact of Iberian globalizations and weather unpredictability on the arts. The first
part explores 16th-century globalizing impulses through the creation of world routes and
markets that crystallized in the opening of trade with China. The second part focuses on a
concomitant phenomenon to transcontinental and transoceanic explorations: the climatic crisis
known as the Little Ice Age and its literary depictions. As a result  this book proposes a new
vision of the Golden Age and colonial literatures by incorporating Hispanisms into fundamental
debates of the 21st century  such as global development and the climate crisis  the
responsibilities of the Anthropocene  without forgetting the role of the arts in the processes
necessary to assimilate the consequences of exchanges and growth.
