    Saavedra fajardo, en los multiples espejos d ela política barroca.
    (2015-09-23) González García, José M.
    This essay, inspired by Walter Benjamin's reflections on the spirit of German baroque drama, is centred on the two big metaphors of human life destined to produce an idea of «identity»: theatre and mirror. All of Saavedra Fajardo's work can be catalogued as producing «concepts for the eyes». The paradox of the Baroque period resides in that the identity-producing media make it possible due to the proliferation of images it generates.

    La sombra del imperio
    (2015-09-23) Price, Rachel
    This work offers a reflection on the value of image during the Baroque, through the ways in which distance is managed in relation to various objects. The author focuses on both Hernando de Soto and Saavedra Fajardo's works to elucidate the role of representation in matters such as the copperand- silver alloy coin or the government of the Indies.
