Biography
Andrés Pérez-Simón is an Associate Professor of Spanish at the University of Cincinnati. He has published essays on world literature, drama, film and literary theory. He is the author of Drama, literatura, filosofía: itinerarios del realismo y modernismo europeos (Fundamentos, 2015), and editor and translator of the critical anthology ‘Despistemes’: la teoría literaria y cultural de Emil Volek (Verbum, 2018).
"Baroque Lorca is intelligently argued and full of provocative insights… Even when I found myself resisting certain emphases and conclusions in the book, I felt that my resistance was a productive one, leading me to question my own prejudices and sometimes change my mind."
- Jonathan Mayhew, University of Kansas
