Abstract

ABSTRACT: This study of the learning of foreign languages in Spain between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries sets out to demonstrate the importance of situating research on any given era in a pan-European plurilingual context. A brief historigraphical overview is followed by a discussion of language teaching materials and methods from a sociocultural perspective, highlighting the network of exchanges, adaptations and influences between Spain and the rest of Europe.
