Lorca, El Cubismo Y La Distorsión Del Tiempo, Huw Aled Lewis

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

Traditionally, Lorca"s plays Comedia sin titulo. El público, and Así que pasen cinco años have been analysed as experimental works that are radically different from his rural trilogy or other, more conventional works. This article will approach Así que pasen cinco años from a dífferent viewpoint, examining it as a direct precursor of Bodas de sangre and as an experiment not only in projecting the complexities of the human mind, but also as an attempt to translate to the theatre some of the ideas that have been associated with pictorial Cubism.

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

This article considers the relationship between culture, specifically the theatre, and the State during the Second Republic and analyses some of the work of certain writers who employed propagandistic theatre to fUrther their political aims. It examines the purpose, both political and artistic, of this theatre before going on to demonstrate how its reception by the state"s censors during the Second Republic and the early Civil War years mirrored the political changes and confusion of the period.

El Cumpleaños De La Abadesa: Una Loa De Alonso Martín Brahones En El Convento De Santa Inés De Sevilla (1671), Carmen Alarcón Román

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

The theatre staged in enclosed convents for women in Spanish Golden Age and XVIIIth century was an interesting dramatic practice that still remains almost unknown. Some plays were wntten, performed and directed by nuns themselves, but in other cases a professional poet was usually put in charge of the composition of these specific convent pieces that commemorated the taking of vows by a novice, Christmas Eve, Corpus Christi and other celebrations. One of these plays, which we are analyzed here, is a loa written by Alonso Martin Brahones in 1671 for the convent of Santa Inés of Seville, in honour …

La Propuesta Teatral De Los Teatros De Arte En España, Mar Rebollo Calzada

Teatro: Revista de Estudios Escénicos / A Journal of Theater Studies

The Teatros de arte appear in Spain in the twilights of the 19th century as an offer of artistic renovation against commercial theatre, following the model of Antoine. During the twenties, this model of theatre develops the most innovative productions headed by Martínez Sierra, Rivas Cherif, and groups as El Mirlo Blanco or Fantasio. The alternative answers to commercial theatre promoted new ways of stage management, interpretation and scenographic solutions, inaugurating a route towards the aesthetic change and the education of the public.

Simone Schwarz-Bart : Quel Intérêt? Classer L’Inclassable, Christiane Ndiaye Dec 2003

Simone Schwarz-Bart : Quel Intérêt? Classer L’Inclassable, Christiane Ndiaye

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Critics do not agree on what constitutes the interest of the works of Schwarz- Bart. However, four major tendencies are apparent in the many critical studies of her works: some are interested in the "creole experience" her novels are said to portray, others in the "feminine experience", while others again in the "mythological" dimension and the question of what is borrowed from oral literature. These different approches interpret the works of Schwarz-Bart essentially in the perspective of "testimony" and, even though there is a consensus as to the originality of her writing, there is little analysis of the specific techniques …


Réceptions De L’Oeuvre D’Émile Ollivier : De La Difficulté De Nommer L’Écrivain Migrant, Joubert Satyre Dec 2003

Réceptions De L’Oeuvre D’Émile Ollivier : De La Difficulté De Nommer L’Écrivain Migrant, Joubert Satyre

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Abstract: Who is a migrant writer? That’s the question asked by Québec institutions which legitimatize literature, including journalistic critics and scholars. The aim of our paper is to make an inventory of the terms employed by these institutions to name Émile Ollivier (1940-2002), an Haitian novelist who has been exiled in Québec since the mid-sixties. These terms reveal a discontent and vagueness in the attempt to link the novelist to a nationality or a country. Between appropriation and dismissal, this multiplicity symbolizes a resistance to frankly consider this writer as a Quebecer. We also refer to the "in-between" of all …

Violent Fathers And Runaway Sons: Colonial Relationships In Une Vie De Boy And Mission Terminée , Laurie Corbin Jun 2003

Violent Fathers And Runaway Sons: Colonial Relationships In Une Vie De Boy And Mission Terminée , Laurie Corbin

Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature

This study examines familial relationships in two novels published by Ferdinand Oyono and Mongo Beti shortly before Cameroon's independence in 1960, making use of three levels of analysis. The first shows the impact of colonization on familial and social structures, in particular the ways in which the weakening of the traditional hierarchy leads to the flight of young men from their families and villages. The second looks at the two novels as showing the relationship of France (who was often represented as a kindly parent to its colonies), the colonized countries, and their citizens: the unpredictable and brutal father can …


The Literal And The Literary: A Note On The Historical References In Isabel Allende's La Casa De Los Espíritus , Scott Macdonald Frame Jun 2003

The Literal And The Literary: A Note On The Historical References In Isabel Allende's La Casa De Los Espíritus , Scott Macdonald Frame

Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature

Stripped of much of its individuality as a piece of literature and relegated to the niche set aside for women's writing, Isabel Allende's La casa de los espíritus has sometimes wrongfully been critically condemned as a mere facsimile of García Màrquez's seminal Latin American novel. However, if critics were to reexamine La casa de los espíritus as a work of fiction in which its writer attempts to give voice to, and achieve personal closure of, historical events so tragically real for her, its comparisons with that "other" Latin American novel might be less frequent. This article contends that Allende uses …
