“The Dampness Of Her Mother’S Womb, The Only Place To Be:” Ó Cómo Recuperar El Habla Después De La Tragedia. Rasgado, De Lila Zemborain, Mariela Méndez Jan 2010

“The Dampness Of Her Mother’S Womb, The Only Place To Be:” Ó Cómo Recuperar El Habla Después De La Tragedia. Rasgado, De Lila Zemborain, Mariela Méndez

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

Como sugiere Gregory Orr en su libro Poetry as Survival, existe una larga tradición lírica en poesía que da testimonio del poder transformador y hasta “terapéutico” del género en momentos de extrema angustia, dolor, y desesperación causados por alguna tragedia o catástrofe. Orr habla, entre otras cosas, de la necesidad de revivir la tragedia en el lenguaje del poema, re-creándola en otros términos que permitan así la distancia física, espacial, emocional, y abran el camino hacia la superación del trauma (101). Rasgado (2006), de Lila Zemborain, es un libro que bien podría agregarse a la larga lista de poemas …

Luciano Bianciardi’S Aprire Il Fuoco: On The Function Of Literature In Society, Stefano Giannini Jan 2009

Luciano Bianciardi’S Aprire Il Fuoco: On The Function Of Literature In Society, Stefano Giannini

Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics - All Scholarship

This is the first article to assess the importance of Luciano Bianciardi’s last novel, Aprire il fuoco [Open Fire!](1969), a work often overlooked, that offers crucial insights into Bianciardi’s commitments to social causes. A so-called “irregular” of 20th-century Italian literary panorama, Luciano Bianciardi (1922-1971) in his Aprire il fuoco discusses his idea of literature as an activity that must aim at assuming the role of ethical guide in societies. In my article, I gloss the often obscure historical and literary references of the novel, and provide a critical assessment of its impact.


Hibridaciones Corpóreas: Los “Ejemplares Raros” De Botánica Del Caos De Ana María Shua, Ilka Kressner Jan 2009

Hibridaciones Corpóreas: Los “Ejemplares Raros” De Botánica Del Caos De Ana María Shua, Ilka Kressner

Languages, Literatures and Cultures Faculty Scholarship

Los cuerpos humanos, sus procesos paulatinos y cambios repentinos, sus misterios, espantos y goces forman una tematica central en la narrativa de Ana Maria Shua. En casi todas sus novelas, cuentos y mini-cuentos, la fabuladora argentina nos invita a asistir a espectaculos textuales de lo corporeo en transformacion--a menudo ilogicos, semi-surrealistas, grotescos y exuberantes. Sus protagonistas transitorios enfrentan aventuras proteticas que cuestionan tanto las diferenciaciones sexuales como las taxonomias de diferentes especies como las categorizaciones de lo humano, lo animal y lo botanico. Hasta refutan la division entre lo animado y lo inanimado. Tambien la ultima coleccion de mini-cuentos de …

A study of the” Enciclopedia del español en el mundo: Anuario 2006-7 " carried out by the Cervantes Institute (http://cvc.cervantes.es/lengua/anuario/anuario_06-07/lengua.htm) presents a comprehensive picture for the future and development of the Spanish language in the world and in the United States in particular. According to the data provided by Cervantes, approximately 14 million people study Spanish in the world, of which 6 million study Spanish in the United States. It is precisely in this country that the study and presence of the Spanish language has a special significance.

CMC Faculty Publications and Research

Women's relationships to the state, to their societies, and to the construction of national discourses continue to provide topics for at-times-heated debates. On the one hand, generalizing about women in such a way as to claim that all women have a particular type of connection to political or social phenomena runs the risk of subsuming certain categories of difference—racial, ethnic, class, sexual—at the same time that it attempts to highlight gender difference. On the other hand, refusing to make any kind of statement about the issues faced by groups of women as they negotiate their relationships with the political movements, …

Hidden Sentiments, Unfinished Project: Pirandello’S Film La Nuova Colonia, Stefano Giannini Jan 2006

Hidden Sentiments, Unfinished Project: Pirandello’S Film La Nuova Colonia, Stefano Giannini

Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics - All Scholarship

This article investigates the notion of the unfinished work. In Pirandello studies the word unfinished holds particular importance. Luigi Pirandello's last, and one of his major works, I giganti della montagna [The Mountain Giants] was not completed. The many years devoted to its making weaken the assumption that Pirandello was not capable of completing it in favor of his decision not to complete his work. I considered the overlapping of the writing of I giganti della montagna and of the attempts to produce the film La nuova colonia [The New Colony] an important, and insofar unnoticed, key element for understanding …
