This book proposes a new way of tracing the history of the Early
Modern Spanish novel through the prism of literary continuation. It
identifies and examines the Golden Age narratives that invented the
sequel and the narrative genres that the sequel in turn invented.
This book proposes a new way of tracing the history of the Early

The author explores the rivalries between apocryphal and authorized
sequelists that forged modern notions of authorship and authorial
property. The book also defines the sequel's forms and functions,
filling a major gap in literary theory in general and Peninsular
literary studies in particular. Notably, the author demonstrates
that the sequel develops first and foremost in Early Modern Spain,
an unacknowledged and unexamined contribution to Western letters.
With its panoramic scope, this study serves as an introduction to
the central novelistic genres and texts of Early Modern Spain. From
this foundational starting point, it alsooffers a general framework
for understanding imaginative expansion in subsequent time periods
and literary traditions. William H. Hinrichs is a founding faculty
member and Assistant Professor of Modern Languages at Bard High
School Early College, Queens.
This volume contains the proceedings of the International Winter
School on "Heterostructures and Two-Dimensional Electronic Systems
in Semiconductors." The school took place in Mauterndorf, Austria,
from February 26 - March 2, 1984, and was the third one in a series
of winter schools on "New Develop ments in Solid-State Physics,"
organized by the Austrian Physical Society, Solid State Physics
Division. The school was attended by about 150 scientists from 12
countries, including the United States of America, Japan and
Poland. Most of the research groups of Western Europe working in
this field participated and demonstrated the still increasing
interest in the topics. These topics cover the wide area ranging
from fundamental phenomena in solid-state physics, like the quantum
Hall effect, to new semiconductor devices, all based on
two-dimensional elec tronic systems. We hope that the spirit of
this school, the combination of basic and applied physics
(including skiing) will stimulate further progress in this field of
research. This conference was sponsored by the Austrian Physical
Society, Austrian Federal Ministry for Science and Research,
European Research Office of the US Army, European Office of
Aerospace Research and Development, Federal Province of Salzburg,
and Osterreichische Forschungsgemeinschaft Further financial
support came from the following companies: Balzers, IBM Austria,
Messer-Griesheim, Oxford Instruments, Klaus Schafer & Co.,
Siemens Osterreich and Varian."
