Sánchez García, Encarnación
Encarnación Sánchez García, a professor of Spanish Literature at the Università degli Studi di Napoli L’Orientale, has written many works related to the prose and history of the language of the Golden Age (including studies on Pero Mexía, Juan de Valdés, Jorge de Montemayor, El viaje de Turquía, and El Lazarillo de Tormes, among others). She has published an edition of the Rhetórica en lengua castellana (1541) by Miguel de Salinas (1999) and monographs such as La fama de Khayr-ed-Din Barbarroja en el Renacimiento: retratos literarios y artísticos (2014). She has been studying Spanish cultural heritage in Italy during the viceregal period for years, particularly fields related to manuscript and print culture in the Kingdom of Naples. Imprenta y cultura en la Nápoles virreinal: los signos de la presencia española (2007) stems from this interest. She is also responsible for the Catalogo delle edizioni in lingua spagnola e d’interesse ispanico del Regno di Napoli (1503–1707), accessible at www.ispanica.unior.it.
