Abstract
Cervantes’ Persiles has never been more timely than today – a text that rethinks geopolitical models of race, ethnicity, nation, and religion. At the same time its overt referencing of Heliodorus’ Aethiopika offers a platform from which to evaluate fundamental aesthetic paradigms of literary composition – ancient and modern – theorizing romance and the novel in powerful ways.
