No Need to Purchase Purchas
The first edition of Purchas, his Pilgrimes; or, Relations of the World and the Religions observed in all Ages was published in 1613, and the work went through a convoluted series of reprints, continuations and additions. But you can have his second edition (enlarged of course) for free at the Internet Archive, or here. And the full title, which I love, for your benefit:
PVRCHAS his PILGRIMAGE.
OR

Places discovered, from the CREATION

A no confundir con otro Samuel Purchas, del siglo XVII, autor de A Theatre of Political Flying-Insects. Nuestro primer Purchas es todo un roll model, una de esas figuras casaubónicas que han querido (noble empeño) ofrecernos la clave de todas las mitologías, contener un mundo en un libro, o contarnos la historia de todas las cosas.

SAMUEL BECKETT Y LA NARRACIÓN REFLEXIVA

SAMUEL BECKETT Y LA NARRACIÓN REFLEXIVA
No soy muy dado a las efemérides, y eso que todo es efímero. Pero oigo que Samuel Beckett terminó su vida prepóstuma hace 25 años. Hace 26 leí yo mi tesis sobre Beckett—y le dieron o me dieron un premio. También le dieron premio (otro) al libro que salió de la revisión de la tesis, Samuel Beckett y la narración reflexiva (1992). Todo lleva su tiempo—vivir, escribir, y hasta morir. Ahora el libro lo he ido subiendo por capítulos a la SSRN. Aquí están uno tras otro y, en cierto modo, también el libro—en su vida póstuma o angélica.
Capítulo 1: Conceptos básicos de narratología
Capítulo 2: Entrando en la trilogía: La narración en Molloy
