Summary: "History of Spanish Literature, vol. 1 (of 3)" by George Ticknor is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work delves into the evolution of Spanish literature and its various influences, tracing its origins from the medieval era up to the early modern period. The book emphasizes the cultural and historical contexts that shaped the literature, including the impact of political turmoil and the cultural clash between the Moors and Christian Spaniards. The opening of this volume sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of Spanish literature, beginning with Ticknor's preface that recounts his journey through Spain and his encounters with influential literary figures of the time, such as Don José Antonio Conde. He reflects on the political oppression faced by many writers during Ferdinand the Seventh's reign, highlighting how this influenced their works and lives. The text foreshadows an in-depth discussion of the early roots of Spanish literature, particularly marked by the struggle against Moorish invaders and its subsequent developments, laying a solid foundation for the detailed analyses and chapters that follow.
