Stefano Arata y el hispanismo italiano, veinte años después.

To provide context for the republication of Stefano Arata's "Candor y tragedia: Federico García Lorca y la poética de La Barraca" as a Touchstone of comedia studies, this essay details how a generation of Italian Hispanists who came of age in the 1980s and 1990s coalesced around new methodologies and practices. Of particular importance for them were new opportunities for scholarly collaborations with research teams based in Spanish universities. In this manner, Arata's innovative scholarship and inspirational leadership—celebrated in the Touchstone section of this issue—are appreciated with reference to colleagues and students who shared his passions and remain active in the field.
