Though unjustly neglected by English-language audiences, Spanish
film and television not only represent a remarkably influential and
vibrant cultural industry; they are also a fertile site of
innovation in the production of "transmedia" works that bridge
narrative forms. In Spanish Lessons, Paul Julian Smith provides an
engaging exploration of visual culture in an era of collapsing
genre boundaries, accelerating technological change, and
political-economic tumult. Whether generating new insights into the
work of key figures like Pedro Almodovar, comparing media
depictions of Spain's economic woes, or giving long-overdue
critical attention to quality television series, Smith's book is a
consistently lively and accessible cultural investigation.
