Iberian poets of the period were quite cognizant of their ventures into uncharted territory, and that awareness informed their literary journeys.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe War Trumpet\u003c\/i\u003e features nine substantial essays that expand our understanding of Iberian Renaissance epic poetry by posing questions seldom raised in relation to poems such as \u003ci\u003eLa Araucana\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eOs Lus?das\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCarlo famoso\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eEl Bernardo\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eArauco Domado, Espejo de paciencia\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eFelicissima Victoria\u003c\/i\u003e, among others.
