The work of Miguel de Unamuno y Jugo, one of the most important writers of 20th-century Spain, has recently enjoyed a resurgence of interest within the English-speaking world. In contrast to previous studies of Unamuno's extensive literary corpus, which consider his work primarily from the philosophical points of view, Jurkevich challenges the hagiology which has traditionally dominated Unamuno scholarship with extensive psychoanalytic examination of the writer's life and work.
