Masculinización Y Virilización De La Escritura De La Mujer De Vanguardia: El Caso De Estación. Ida Y Vuelta Y El Personaje Presentido, Eva Paris-Huesca

Entrehojas: Revista de Estudios Hispánicos

El presente trabajo examina los diferentes procesos por los que la escritora española se enfrenta al mundo masculino del periodo de las vanguardias y cómo lucha por formar parte del movimiento literario de vanguardias. En primer lugar, analizo la figura de Rosa Chacel, una de las pocas escritoras consideradas por el canon literario masculino de la época, y su novela Estación. Ida y Vuelta (1930). Seguidamente, estudio el caso de Concha Méndez, una de las figuras más olvidadas de todas las modernas, y su obra teatral El personaje presentido (1931). La elección de estas dos obras remite al hecho de ...

Concept-Based Teaching And Spanish Modality In Heritage Language Learners: A Vygotskyan Approach, Elena Guillermina Garcia Frazier

Open Access Dissertations

This study analyzed how six Heritage language learners at the university level gained conscious awareness and control of the concept of modality as revealed in student verbalizations (Vygotsky, 1998) throughout five different written communicative events. This work took place in the only course designed for Heritage language learners at a large public suburban university in the Northeast part of the United States.

Grammatical simplification in bilingual speakers is due to incomplete acquisition of Spanish, attrition or loss of an underused linguistic system (Lynch, 1999; Martínez Mira, 2009a, 2009b; Mikulski, 2010b; Montrul, 2007; Ocampo, 1990; Silva-Corvalán, 1990, 1994a, 1994b, 2003; Studerus ...

Interacciones Narrativas Árabe, Cristiana Y Judía: Convivencia Literaria En El Medievo Peninsular, David Navarro

University of Western Ontario - Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

This dissertation develops a critical study based on identity theory, intergroup relations, and social discourse of the cultural symbiosis forged between the three religious communities of the Medieval Iberian Peninsula - Christians, Jews and Muslims - as reflected in four books written during this period, from the eleventh to the fourteenth century. In the case of Medieval Iberian literature, Semitic culture and traditions were absorbed along with Christian traditions in the development of a future Spanish identity that was reflected in the literary framework. Through this analysis and this theoretical framework it was possible to determine how intergroup contact affected the relations ...

El Modelo De Autorización Del Relato En La Historiografía Medieval Castellana: La Escritura Y Lo Real En La Cronística Alfonsí, Santiago Normann Kalinowski

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

This thesis explores the nature of the relationship between truth and text during a key moment in Castilian culture. Focusing on xiiith century historiography, supervised by King Alfonso X “el Sabio”, the thesis proposes an evolution of “textual truth” along a set of specific theoretical principles and formal (literary/rhetorical) features. The first part defines “authority” and “authorization” of the written word: Chapter 1 studies the fundamental issues surrounding the writing of History; Chapter 2 provides precedents, starting in the Bible, for an understanding of “sacred” authorship that will be recognizable in the Primera Crónica General; Chapter 3 analyzes ...

Utilizing a base of socio-critical and semiotic theories, the construction of a reality within the works through the representations of children characters will be studied.


Baroque Worlds Of The 21st Century, Xavier Gamboa Western University

Baroque Worlds Of The 21st Century, Xavier Gamboa

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

This dissertation furnishes an analysis of the unfolding twenty-first century neobaroque phenomenon. Thus this disquisition delves through assorted cultural artifacts from the current digital era as well as manifestations of neobaroque motifs; these virtual baroques of the twenty-first century range from memento mori, video games, social networking sites and the sponsors of these neobaroque manifestations--the corporations, a baroque legacy. This thesis seeks parallels, as opposed to replications of the first modern global culture--the historical baroque of the seventeenth century; it also provides an extensive etymological research of the international and evolving meaning of baroque, taking also into consideration its political ...

El Lugar, El Tiempo Y La Acción En El Siglo De Oro, Gregory Golden

Colgate Academic Review

This work treats the three unities of classical theater, those of action, time and place, and examines how the great playwrights of the Spanish Golden Age used them in their dramas in a distinct manner in Western Europe of the time. While the French and the Italians insisted that the three unities were to always be respected, the Spanish adopted a much more fluid concept of their usage, maintaining that the unity of action was most important and that the other two could be ignored or modified if it served the purpose of the play and the playwright's purposes ...
