This collection of essays delves into the intricate analysis of the publication and reception history of sixteenth-century Iberian books of chivalry in English translation. Providing a comprehensive introduction, it sheds light on the subject's significance for the study of early modern fiction writing in general, as well as the state of Anglo-Spanish literary relations during that era. The contributors explore the profound impact of Iberian chivalric writing on various contemporary genres, including native English romance, letter-writing, and chronicle. They also examine the influence of translations in English prose fiction from the 1590s to the mid-seventeenth century.
The volume specifically delves into the role of the prominent translator Anthony Munday in the literary book market.

Through these works, the volume explores the contribution of these translations to early modern cultural debates on sexuality, marriage, female individualism, colonialism, and religious controversy.
The essays in this collection offer a rich and multifaceted perspective on the influence of Iberian chivalric writing on English literature and culture during the sixteenth century. They provide valuable insights into the complex interplay between different literary genres, translation practices, and cultural contexts, contributing to our understanding of the early modern world.
