Autorenporträt
Alistair Malcolm studied History at the Universities of St Andrews and Oxford, and is currently a lecturer at the University of Limerick. He is a specialist in the cultural and political history of Spain during its Golden Age. His current projects are a general study of the effects of court favouritism on policy-making in Spain during the seventeenth century, and a book of documents in translation to assist in the teaching of early modern Spanish history for undergraduates. His approach to the writing of history is one intended to appeal to specialists and general readers alike.
