Women In Warfare: Spanish Christian Soldiers As Rapists In Early Modern Romances, Stacey L. Parker Aronson
Women In Warfare: Spanish Christian Soldiers As Rapists In Early Modern Romances, Stacey L. Parker Aronson
Spanish Publications
The omnipresence of military conflict brings many hardships and dangers for women in Early Modern Europe. In the socio-historical reality of military skirmishes since time immemorial, the rape of the female (and male) occupants of conquered territory was as ubiquitous and as opportunistic an act as one could imagine by which to brutalize and demean the populace. I will analyze two romances—“Romance cuarto. De cómo don Rodrigo de Vivar mató á dos moros que forzaban una dama mora y la rescató” and “Soldados forzadores”—both of which describe the rape of women by Spanish Christian soldiers. While Spanish Christian soldiers might …

Vicente Pagasartundua's Último De Los Mohicanos: A Racialized Dialogue, Thomas Genova
Vicente Pagasartundua's Último De Los Mohicanos: A Racialized Dialogue, Thomas Genova
Spanish Publications
This article uses the translation history of North American James Fenimore Cooper's 1826 Last of the Mohicans to explore the place of race in nineteenth-century republican discourse as it circulated in the Atlantic World. Based not on Cooper's original, but on Auguste Defauconpret's 1826 French translation, le Dernier des mohicans, Vicente Pagasartundua's 1832 Último de los mohicanos, like many republican-oriented works in the early nineteenth century, was translated in Spain for a Spanish American audience. Traveling from pre-Jacksonian New York to Orleanist Paris to absolutist Madrid, Cooper's novel and its translations participate in a transnational conversation on the …
They Said, She Said: Making The Case For Rape In Fuenteovejuna, Stacey L. Parker Aronson
They Said, She Said: Making The Case For Rape In Fuenteovejuna, Stacey L. Parker Aronson
Spanish Publications
Despite the allegations of a number of literary critics to the contrary, textual and cultural evidence exists in Lope’s Fuenteovejuna to suggest that Laurencia was indeed raped. First, a consideration of her physical appearance is in order. Second, an overlooked comment by Jacinta evidences Laurencia’s rape. Third, the quality attributed to Laurencia, namely her virtue, should be understood within its socio-historical context during the early modern period, its understanding superseding an exclusively sexual meaning. Finally, this drama can be considered in light of its adherence to and subversion of what Wendy S. Hesford terms “rape scripts.”
La Psicología Como Conexión Entre Las Obras De Gilman, Lispector, Y Valenzuela, Sarah Singsank
La Psicología Como Conexión Entre Las Obras De Gilman, Lispector, Y Valenzuela, Sarah Singsank
Scholarly Horizons: University of Minnesota, Morris Undergraduate Journal
Using the psychoanalytic approach, I examine The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, A imitação da rosa by Clarice Lispector, and Cambio de armas by Luisa Valenzuela, particularly noting a common use of defense mechanisms between the stories. Additionally, I propose an expanded use of the psychoanalytic approach that includes the theories of other psychologists (not just Freud) and use it to inform alternative interpretations of the texts.
Leocadia, La Raptada: Una Representación Verdadera De Una Víctima De Trauma En La Literatura Cervantina, Darcy M. Gabriel
Leocadia, La Raptada: Una Representación Verdadera De Una Víctima De Trauma En La Literatura Cervantina, Darcy M. Gabriel
Scholarly Horizons: University of Minnesota, Morris Undergraduate Journal
While it began as a study of the numerous fainting spells in La fuerza de la sangre by Cervantes, his paper focuses on re-exploring Leocadia as a victim of trauma. By combining narratology and psychology, I explore the ways in which Leocadia is a victim of trauma. Narratology not only helps the exploration of Leocadia’s psychology, but also assists in understanding how the ways Leocadia’s story is told affects her psychologically. This combination of approaches leads to the conclusion that Leocadia’s story is a realistic representation of a victimized woman.

"Quizá Volverán ...": Four Incidents Of Rape (Or Threatened Rape) In Don Quijote De La Mancha, Stacey L. Parker Aronson
Spanish Publications
En la novela cervantina Don Quijote de la Mancha, se presentan cuatro episodios en que hay mujeres o que son amenazadas con la violación sexual o que son violadas. Estas mujeres son Dorotea, la mujer que le pide justicia a Sancho cuando él gobierna su ínsula, y unas mozas del pueblo donde vive Teresa Panza que son llevadas por unos soldados. En tres de estos episodios las mujeres se resisten a la violación sexual y en un episodio las mujeres son violadas. Lo que parece ser verdad es que el nivel social de la mujer con respecto al hombre …

The Martyred Maternal Body In Pedro De Fuentes' Doña Francisca La Cautiva, Stacey L. Parker Aronson
The Martyred Maternal Body In Pedro De Fuentes' Doña Francisca La Cautiva, Stacey L. Parker Aronson
Spanish Publications
In the nineteenth-century romance “Doña Francisca la cautiva [the captive]” written by Pedro de Fuentes (1831), the Virgin Mary convinces a woman to redeem a man through her Christian influence. The female body becomes the instrument to bring about this spiritual redemption. During a trip from Naples to Rome, Doña Francisca, accompanied by her three children, is kidnapped by Turkish pirates and enslaved by the Renegade, a former Christian slave converted to Islam. This romance was written during the Tanzimat period between 1830 and 1880 when Ottoman writers and activists advocated the elimination of slavery within the Ottoman Empire. This …

Flarr Pages #60: Lady Assassins In Spain? A Psychological And Cultural Profile Of Perez-Reverte's Dona Adela De Otero, Thomas C. Turner
FLARR Pages
In 1988, twenty years ago, Arturo Perez-Reverte wrote a marvelously complex novel entitled El maestro de esgrima (The Fencing Master). The project of that novel was to show how certain traditional Spanish values and attitudes were threatened by contemporary realities. The protagonist, the talented and socially withdrawn Don Jaime de Astarloa, is a gentleman of the ideal "caballero-hidalgo" type, a fencing master, who is nearly killed defending his values, single-handedly, against a major transnational conspiracy being played out during the political turmoil of the late 19th century. Perez-Reverte shows that by then it had become extremely difficult to be an …

A good question for speculation is, "By the age of 18 how many serial killers and assassins have our young people seen? Very few, of course, unless you count the scores of fictional characters who are depicted every year on television and in films. They are, for some reason, a point of particular curiosity, and they are appearing in the literature of Spain. Perhaps the most well-known 20th century serial killer is Camilo Jose Cela's Pascual Duarte. Just how could these characters be approached in our classes?

Maria Teresa Leon's poetic depiction of the anguish of exile has earned her recognition as a vibrant voice of twentieth century Spanish literature. She was a writer at the forefront of political and intellectual activity during her beloved Spain's civil war (1936-1939). Compelled by the struggle for justice, she portrayed the suffering of the oppressed and disempowered, specifically women, children and workers.

In La Perfecta Casada ( 1.583) Fray Luis de Leon exhorted wives to redeem their fallen husbands through their exemplary behavior. While he does not directly address the problem of spousal abuse, he does suggest that even infidelity must be endured as part of the perfect wife's duty to exert her good, Christian influence on her husband.

Mariano Jose de Lana was one of Spain's finest journalist of the early nineteenth century. I teach a entire half semester on Lana in a course on reform in Spain. Today's students are still interested in the subject of reform and they do, predictably, compare Larra 's recommendations with what they see on their own trips to Spain as well as with similar issues in 21st century United States culture. As a framework for the course, four basic approaches were designed, which were also the topics for a take--home, mid-term exam.

Professor Vicente Cabrera, who now teaches at the University of Minnesota, Morris has just published a new novel, La sombra del espia, which has received wide acclaim in Ecuador. This work is a cross-cultural tale of spies, drug-traffickers and typewriters. Two other novels, published previously are: La Noche del Te, which has mental illness as its theme, and El Gaban, which describes a student and a serious political uprising. A fourth novel is in the works: El Hortelano de Ulba, which treats a mixed-race Hispano and American theme.
