Spanish Lessons provides an engaging exploration of the nation's visual culture in an era of collapsing genre boundaries, accelerating technological change, and political-economic tumult.

Multiplatform Media in Mexico is the first book to treat the exciting, interconnected fields of cinema, television, and internet in Mexico over the last decade, fields that combine to be called multiplatform media.

This book focuses on some of the best known and most important books, feature films, and television series in contemporary Span, and addresses three pairs of linked issues central to Hispanic studies and beyond: history and memory, authority and society, and genre and transitivity.

This book is the first to explore three visual media in contemporary Spain: cinema, television and internet. It also examines cultural products in each of these media in terms of three vital themes: emtion, location and nostalgia. -- .
