Spain, Portugal, and Great Britain: Notes on a Shared History

The volume aims to offer a broader outlook on the last five hundred years of Anglo-Iberian relations, often reduced to clichéd binaries and largely limited to normative voices. The chapters deal with relatively little-known Anglo-Iberian events and figures. They seek to look beyond persistent ideological biases to foster mutual understanding.

British representations of Spain and Portugal have often relied on persistent ideological biases, prejudices, and interpretations. This volume aims to offer a broader, more nuanced outlook on the last five hundred years of Anglo-Iberian relations. The chapters focus on relatively little-known episodes and figures in Anglo-Iberian history and cover a wide temporal span: from the sixteenth to the mid-twentieth century. They aim to look beyond the clichéd dichotomies, received ideas, and normative voices that have often charac-terised mainstream studies. Ultimately, the book seeks to expose and transcend stereotyped narratives emphasising Anglo-Spanish acrimony and contribute to mutual understanding.
