Quevedo's political literature was particularly successful in England. This country shared with other European countries their fascination about his two most widespread burlesque writings, the Buscón and the Sueños, translated into the main European languages since their publication in the 17th century. Together with some political works, also published in English- Marco Bruto or lucianesque prose like Discurso de todos los diablos and La Fortuna con seso-, his Política de Dios, which became a best-seller, was well known: its first part was translated in 1715, transformed in a sort of antidote against Whig and Tory parties; and the second one, in 1720, turned into an allegation against 'tyrant and atheist' politicians, disciples of the Satanic Machiavelli. This article examines the strategies of the English translation of the second part in order to increase the anti-Machiavellism of Quevedo's work, and to adapt it to the peculiar political and religious circumstances in England during the first decades of the 18th century. This analysis is preceded by a triple contextualization of the English version: the wide circulation of the Spanish writer's literature in Europe, Machiavelli's reception in the English culture, and Quevedo's own position, always fluctuating and ambiguous when facing the Florentine theorist. This paper allows for getting to know the unsuspected 'anti-Machiavellian instant' that Quevedo's work experienced through Christian Politicks, slanted English version of his Política de Dios against the 'state outrage'.

Suelta editions of seventeenth-century Spanish plays traditionally have not taken into consideration the elaboration of critical editions of these plays, since they usually were not well catalogued or because they presented false attributions, dates or printers. However, during the last years this type of edition has been better studied and catalogued, and different editions and studies have pointed out how the best text of a determined play, or at least better readings of many verses, could have survived in these suelta editions. This paper focuses on the case of La puente de Mantible, by Calderón de la Barca, published in the reliable Primera parte of the playwright, but whose text can be widely improved thanks to an apparently very unreliable suelta edition of the play, with attribution to Lope de Vega.

A paper chromatography method for qualitative analysis of the carbohydrates (in 85% ethanol soluble fraction) of Taraxacum Koksaghyz is described. Different parts of the plant have been analyzed. In the fresh roots the following carbohydrates were found: levulose, saccharose, probably raffinose, levulines and four other spots of low R values - all of them ketose compounds. Roots dryed during a period of 48 hours at 55° C before analysis have the same chromatogram. In the fresh leaves only levulose, glucose and saccharose appeared. In the dry leaves besides these carbohydrates three more spots of low R values were found: all of them ketose compounds. Before, during and after the flowering period, the floral stems contained levulose, glucose and saccharose. The buds contain levulose, glucose, saccharose and four other non-identified carbohydrates, all of them ketose compounds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
