 A review by Diane Chafee-Sorace of Cervantes and the Pastoral (José J. Labrador Herraiz and Juan ...
Appropriately, the first essay in the book is “La Galatea, Four Hundred Years Later,” the banquet address by Juan Bautista Avalle-Arce who states that Cervantes made his formal literary debut with the pastoral novel which was in great demand in the Spain of the 1580s.
Elizabeth Rhodes' “The Poetics of Pastoral: Prologue to the Galatea” is of interest for its approach to Cervantes' La Galatea.
Thus, Cervantes' discovery that an illusion cannot live or be made to live on its own explains why Don Quijote accepts his poetic ideal as fantasy and becomes “real” at the end of Cervantes' novel and why he rejects the adoption of a shepherd's lifestyle before dying as Alonso Quijano el Bueno.

 GALATEA RESURRECTS, #2 (A Poetry Engagement)
I've been/am active as an editor, but Galatea Resurrects (GR) offers the first time that I'm editing a publication which includes -- let alone, focuses on -- poetry reviews.
I accept all forms, though would suggest generally that it's a good idea to provide excerpts of poems to exemplify reviewers' assessments.
You can ask me for suggestions, of course, but as it turns out, I rarely assign reviews; 99% of the reviewed titles are chosen by the reviewers themselves.
