Through analyses of the modes of exchange of material goods between early modern England and Spain, and the circulation of symbolic systems of meaning, the contributors to the anthology -historians and literary critics- investigate the two nations' points of contact and conflict during these historically crucial fifty years. The essays demonstrate and problematize, from the perspective of Spanish cultural history, the significant material, cultural, and symbolic contacts between the two countries.
