"Épocas y avances is indeed innovative in its premise of teaching grammar and literature through history. It takes students beyond the typical dry grammar-book fare, all the while urging them to develop and practice a myriad of skills in an interesting and meaningful way. Importantly, as well, it prepares students for future, higher-level courses in history, culture, literature, and literary history, as much within a Spanish degree as in other areas of study."—Hispania
