Description

Legends and Romances of Spain is a book by Lewis Spence, first published in 1920. This rich and engaging collection brings together the mythic traditions, heroic sagas, and romantic tales of Spain, drawing from medieval ballads, Moorish legends, and regional folklore. Spence, a prolific writer and folklorist known for his studies on mythologies and esoteric traditions, offers readers a glimpse into the cultural soul of Spain—its chivalric ideals, religious fervor, and historical complexity. The stories encompass noble knights, tragic lovers, haunted castles, and miraculous events, reflecting the diverse influences that shaped Spanish identity across centuries. Written in an accessible and vivid narrative style, the book serves both as an entertaining read and a valuable preservation of oral and literary traditions that might otherwise be forgotten. It remains an evocative introduction to the symbolic and storytelling heritage of the Iberian Peninsula.
