Notas, Cuentos Y Minificciones: Relatos En Periódicos Mexicanos Del Siglo Xix, Giordano Palma
Notas, Cuentos Y Minificciones: Relatos En Periódicos Mexicanos Del Siglo Xix, Giordano Palma
Modern Languages and Literatures Annual Graduate Conference
Los periódicos de finales de siglo xix alteraron el proceso habitual de lectura; surgieron nuevos géneros y nuevos tipos de textos que buscaban satisfacer los formatos del periódico. Conjuntamente con la transformación de las formas textuales, se dieron nuevas prácticas de lectura, prácticas que premiaban la inmediatez y la brevedad. La empresa periodística estuvo fuertemente relacionada con la percepción de la modernidad, la apertura a nuevos espacios geográficos y la innovación tecnológica. En este contexto es que se comenzó a experimentar con distintos géneros literarios, que pudieran satisfacer esas necesidades. Dentro de estas nuevas formas surgieron las notas periodísticas, lugar …
Microrrelato Del “Saber Vivir” En Su Doble Acepción Normativa-Descriptiva: Más Allá De La Parodia Y Los Finales Sorprendentes; Lo Reflexivo, Ary Malaver
Modern Languages and Literatures Annual Graduate Conference
Tradicionalmente, el estudio del microrrelato se ha centrado en la discusión de aspectos tales como su caracterización, evolución histórica y estatus genérico. Este trabajo parte de la premisa de que son necesarios nuevos enfoques y por ello indaga en algunas cuestiones axiológicas y éticas en torno al microrrelato. Teniendo como punto de partida el concepto del “saber vivir”, según lo propone Ottmar Ette, se plantea la existencia de un microrrelato del saber vivir normativo-descriptivo que difiere de la correlación que Ette establece entre microficción y “saber vivir”. Este tipo de microficción se distingue por la presencia de una voluntad introspectiva …
El Oficio De La Escritura Y La Estetica En La Obra De Roberto Bolano, Ainoa Inigo
El Oficio De La Escritura Y La Estetica En La Obra De Roberto Bolano, Ainoa Inigo
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
This dissertation aims at attaining a general understanding of the aesthetics and philosophy on the practice of writing of Roberto Bolaño (1953-2003), the Chilean poet and writer, through interpretive devices developed by him and by extrinsic means. Bolaño claimed that his works stemmed from a pre-extant poetic universe, so that each work is interrelated thematically with the rest of the oeuvre and individually representative of the totality.
Throughout the works analyzed, our two primary questions--the aesthetical and ethical--intercept while we examine his understanding of the role of the writer and literature itself. Estrella distante (1996), Los detectives salvajes (1998) and …
The Transnational Latin American Regionalism Of Mario Vargas Llosa And Milton Hatoum, Michele C. Kettner
The Transnational Latin American Regionalism Of Mario Vargas Llosa And Milton Hatoum, Michele C. Kettner
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
The present dissertation analyzes the novels The Green House (1966) and The Storyteller (1987), by Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa, and Two Brothers (2000), by Brazilian novelist Milton Hatoum and reinterpret literary regionalism in the Amazon region. I claim that the new variety of regionalist literature represented by both authors challenges hegemonic national representations of Peru and Brazil and conceptualizes Amazonian ecology in the context of global capitalism. In the first chapter, I evaluate the critical apparatus of the older tradition of Latin American regionalism proposing the concept of the "region" as an "invention" (Albuquerque Jr.). My reading reveals how …

Sarmiento's Vida De Horacio Mann: Translation, Importation, And Entanglement, Thomas Genova
Sarmiento's Vida De Horacio Mann: Translation, Importation, And Entanglement, Thomas Genova
Spanish Publications
This article focuses on the broad sociopolitical implications of Sarmiento's translations of Northern Hemispheric texts and ideas into the South American context in Las escuelas and the author's correspondence with Mary Mann. Exploring the relationship between the two reformers—both of whom were interested in using education to prepare nonwhites for the duties of citizenship in a broadly defined "South"—in order to examine the entangled history of Argentina during the War of the Triple Alliance and the early Reconstruction-era United States, this article shows how Sarmiento puts his relationship with Mann to creative use in his effort to incorporate Argentina's popular …

Posthumous Voices In The Antología De La Literatura Fantástica: Santiago Dabove, Horacio Quiroga, And Edgar Allan Poe, Jose J. Alvarez
School of American and Global Studies Faculty Publications with a Focus on Modern Languages and Global Studies
Este artículo reconstruye el concepto de lo fantástico esbozado en el prólogo de Adolfo Bioy Casares a la Antología de la literatura fantástica y examina algunas de las inclusiones y omisiones más representativas de la colección. Debido a que Bioy incurre en imprecisiones y contradicciones al teorizar lo fantástico, este trabajo parte del análisis de un ejemplo concreto, “Ser polvo”, de Santiago Dabove. Aunque Dabove emplea varias de las estrategias que Bioy condena y recurre a fuentes que la Antología no admite, su narración es ejemplar, especialmente cuando se compara con “Más allá”, de Horacio Quiroga. El análisis de las …
Jorge Luis Borges’S Poetic Response To The Arab-Israeli Six Day War, Stephen Silverstein
Jorge Luis Borges’S Poetic Response To The Arab-Israeli Six Day War, Stephen Silverstein
Hipertexto
At variance with the pro-Arab stance that most Latin American intellectuals assumed during the Arab-Israeli Six-Day War (June 5-10, 1967), Jorge Luis Borges’s life-long connection to “lo hebreo,” as he called it, translated into “an immediate taking of sides” with Israel (“Autobiographical Essay” 257). As war erupted between Israel and its Egyptian, Jordanian, and Syrian neighbors, Borges expressed his felt kinship to the Jewish state in the poem “A ISRAEL.” In the war’s aftermath he penned a second poem, “ISRAEL.” Whereas the Jewish motifs that proliferate in Borges’s prose have been well studied, his poetry has received much less critical …

Subjugated Bodies, Normalized Subjects: Representations Of Power In The Panamanian Literature Of Roberto Díaz Herrera, Rose Marie Tapia And Mauro Zúñiga Araúz, Sara Escobar-Wiercinski
Subjugated Bodies, Normalized Subjects: Representations Of Power In The Panamanian Literature Of Roberto Díaz Herrera, Rose Marie Tapia And Mauro Zúñiga Araúz, Sara Escobar-Wiercinski
Wayne State University Dissertations
This dissertation examines the dissemination of power represented in the works of Panamanian writers Roberto Díaz Herrera, Rose Marie Tapia and Mauro Zúñiga Araúz. My work focuses on two important periods in Panama's history: the repressive dictatorial era of Manuel Noriega and the post-dictatorial era during which subjugation and power operate in subtle ways, through institutions, mechanisms of civil society, and globalization. The primary sources are Díaz Herrera's testimony, and the novels of Tapia and Zúñiga Araúz. In my analysis, I draw upon the notions of power, subjugation and normalization developed by the French philosoher Michel Foucault. I also draw …

El Manuscrito De 'La Casa De Asterion': Mosaico De Un Proceso De Escritura, Maria Laura Bocaz-Leiva
Modern Languages & Literatures Articles
Los materiales preredaccionales del escritor Jorge Luis Borges son escasos y de dificil acceso. Daniel Balderston, en "Los manuscritos de Borges: imaginar una realidad más compleja", comenta las múltiples dificultades que puede enfrentar el investigador que se decida a estudiar el proceso de escritura de algún texto: dispersos en diferentes depósitos, celosamente guardados por coleccionistas o particulares, ocasionalmente a la venta por sumas extravagantes, a veces sólo disponibles a través de una edición facsimilar; siguen siendo en deñnjtiva una fuente de estudio anhelada y esquiva, una "terra incognita."

El Wavering Imaginativo Y La Conciencia Imaginante En Los Cuentos De Marvel Moreno Y Angela Carter, Alejandra Olarte
El Wavering Imaginativo Y La Conciencia Imaginante En Los Cuentos De Marvel Moreno Y Angela Carter, Alejandra Olarte
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
In this dissertation, I explore the short stories of Colombian writer Marvel Moreno and English writer Angela Carter. I propose that the authors' works share a dual conceptualization of the notion of imagination -- imaginative wavering and imagining consciousness. These conceptualizations constitute interpretative frameworks to comparatively examine textual strategies and themes within the authors' works of fiction. A fundamental characteristic of both imaginative wavering and imagining consciousness is movement. With the former, movement implies a constant oscillation between intradiegetic reality and rational thinking, as exposed in the stories. With the latter, movement entails the act of grasping the reality that …
Preservation Or Progression : Indo-Trinidadian Cultural Fluidity As Seen Through The Works Of V.S. Naipaul And Shani Mootoo, Mohua Chakraborti
Preservation Or Progression : Indo-Trinidadian Cultural Fluidity As Seen Through The Works Of V.S. Naipaul And Shani Mootoo, Mohua Chakraborti
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
The aim of this thesis is to clarify and analyze the arguments about national and marginal identity made by two Indo-Trinidadian authors, V.S. Naipaul and Shani Mootoo. Naipaul argues that Trinidad as a nation cannot survive because it must be dependent on colonial rule. He argues that Indo-Trinidadian's are neither British nor Indian, and they lack identity and stability. In contrast, Mootoo argues that Trinidad is fully capable of establishing its own identity, and that Indo-Trinidadian culture does not need colonization nor India to define it. She argues that culture is a fluid and constantly changing idea. Mootoo recognizes the …
El Ex-Hombre: Masculinidad Y Exilio En La Poesía De Juan José Domenchina, Iker González-Allende
El Ex-Hombre: Masculinidad Y Exilio En La Poesía De Juan José Domenchina, Iker González-Allende
Spanish Language and Literature Papers
This article analyzes the representation of masculinity in Juan José Domenchina’s poetry of exile. The article argues that, during his last 20 years of life in exile (1939–1959), Domenchina shows in his poetry a contradictory masculinity. On the one hand, he reaffirms normative masculinity by rejecting pompous demonstrations of suffering, describing himself as stoic, tough, strong-willed and independent, and praising nostalgically Castilian men’s hypermasculine behavior. On the other hand, Domenchina’s poetry also testifies to his feelings of emasculation, since he calls himself an “ex-man”, shows his masculine fragmentation with the figures of the doppelganger or shadow, identifies himself with a …

El Erotismo En La Obra De Rebeca Uribe (1934-1941), Leonor Alejandra Silva Lomelí
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
La poesía de la escritora Rebeca Uribe (1911-1949) pertenece a un corpus literario que requiere ser atendido por la crítica. La presente investigación tiene como objetivos dar a conocer las composiciones eróticas de esta autora mediante el análisis crítico y metodológico, así como brindar un primer acercamiento que fomente estudios posteriores. En esta investigación se propone que los poemas eróticos de Rebeca Uribe presentan una voz lírica que se entrega totalmente al ser amado con la finalidad de ser correspondida con la misma intensidad, y practica una sexualidad liberada que se manifiesta en la experimentación de relaciones erótico-amorosas de tipo …
Acoustic Epistemologies And Aurality In Sor Juana Inés De La Cruz, Sarah E. Finley
Acoustic Epistemologies And Aurality In Sor Juana Inés De La Cruz, Sarah E. Finley
Theses and Dissertations--Hispanic Studies
This dissertation considers the intersection of aurality and visuality in seventeenth-century New Spanish poet Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz’s (1648/1651-95) acoustico-poetic discourse. Prior scholarship has focused either on the author’s engagement with Western music theory and compositional practices or else the role of musical references in her works. This has resulted in the marginalization of Sor Juana’s engagement with sound through disciplines that are not strictly musical or poetic, including: acoustics, cognitive theory and visual art. I address these lacunae by considering such concepts as echo, reflection, Ear, Voice, musica poetica (links between music and rhetoric) and musical pathos …
The Strange Loop: Paradoxical Hierarchies In Borges's Fictions, Jessica Erin Beebe
The Strange Loop: Paradoxical Hierarchies In Borges's Fictions, Jessica Erin Beebe
Honors Projects
In Gödel, Escher, and Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid, Douglas Hofstadter studies how three great minds created their own version of what he calls the “Strange Loop.” The Strange Loop is a paradoxical construction, a shift from one level of abstraction to another that somehow gives rise to a closed, eternal cycle. In other words, despite one’s sense of departing ever further from one’s origin, one winds up, to one’s shock, exactly where one had started out. I argue that this paradoxical model is prevalent in Jorge Luis Borges’s short stories and that by applying Hofstadter’s model to Borges’s …

[Introduction To] Escrituras A Ras De Suelo: Crónica Latinoamericana Del Siglo Xx, Marcela Aguilar, Claudia Darrigrandi, Mariela Méndez, Antonia Viu
Bookshelf
El proyecto de publicar una colección de artículos sobre la crónica latinoamericana aparecida en el siglo xx, principalmente entre 1930 y 1970, intenta hacerse cargo de una producción mucho menos estudiada que la crónica modernista o que la crónica de las últimas décadas, problematizando las definiciones y fundamentos que se le han atribuido al género a partir de esas tradiciones. Más que una nueva revisión de tales concepciones de la crónica, lo que el lector encontrará en los escritos agrupados en las distintas secciones de este libro son elementos parciales y problemas concretos que surgen en muy distintos contextos y …
Crítica Contextural: El Corazón Del Instante De Alberto Blanco: Ensayo De Un Método, Carlos Zamora-Zapata
Crítica Contextural: El Corazón Del Instante De Alberto Blanco: Ensayo De Un Método, Carlos Zamora-Zapata
Theses and Dissertations--Hispanic Studies
The most common approaches to arranged Poetic Collection are the chronological and the bibliographical orders, that is, the ones that privileges a book that normally would be called an anthology: the arrangements of poems following the order of the compositions of the poems (chronological), or the order of previous publications (bibliographical). "El corazón del instante" (The Heart of the Instant, 1998) by the Mexican poet Alberto Blanco (Mexico City, 1951) is a collection of twelve books of poems in one volume. The books in the collection --or the “chapters”, as Alberto Blanco call them in his “Introductory Note” of the …
Sisma, Paul Jesus Guillen Delgado
Sisma, Paul Jesus Guillen Delgado
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
En Sobre la violencia: seis reflexiones marginales, Slavoj Zizek cuenta la anécdota de un hombre sospechoso de robar en el trabajo. Cada tarde los vigilantes inspeccionan su carretilla, pero nunca encuentran nada. Un día descubren el ardid: lo que el trabajador está robando son las carretillas. He tratado en este libro titulado SISMA de actuar como ese obrero frente al lenguaje y el Poder. El lenguaje que es una manifestación humana debe ser "robado" de los aparatos ideológicos del Estado (Althusser) y del Poder (Foucault). Mi investigación poetica se centra en el terremoto que asoló parte del Perú en el …
Literatura Sobre La Frontera Norte Mexicana: Comparación Y Análisis Del Discurso Pragmático, Emily Celeste Vázquez Enríquez
Literatura Sobre La Frontera Norte Mexicana: Comparación Y Análisis Del Discurso Pragmático, Emily Celeste Vázquez Enríquez
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
En este trabajo se comparan cuatro novelas que incluyen a la frontera del norte de México entre sus páginas. El punto de diferencia del cual la comparación parte es el origen de los autores. Lo anterior se debe a que en la tradición del trabajo crítico que ha intentado entender y definir la literatura de la zona, uno de los principales puntos de debate refiere al cuestionamiento de si importa la pertenencia de los escritores al lugar narrado. Mientras hay críticos y académicos que afirman que las obras de la literatura norfronteriza mexicana son únicamente aquéllas escritas por autores de …
