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

Don Quijote: Una Esmerada Crítica De La Sociedad Aún Valiosa En Nuestros Días (Don Quixote: A Detailed Critique Of Spanish Society), Jeremy W. Bachelor
Faculty Scholarship – Spanish
El tema del presente trabajo trata sobre Don Quijote, una crítica de Cervantes sobre la sociedad española de su época. El objetivo principal de la investigación es analizar lo que precisamente criticaba Cervantes y cómo esa crítica de la realidad española se hizo patente en la novela. Los objetivos incluyen el análisis de la estratificación socioeconómica de la sociedad, la descripción de la transición del feudalismo a las fases iniciales del capitalismo, una explicación del sistema principal de valores de la sociedad en el contexto de la transición y un análisis del papel de la Iglesia y de las …

Acercamiento Interartístico A La Pintura De Género De Murillo Y El Pícaro Literario Del Siglo De Oro. Personajes Que Reflejan Una Realidad Social, Jimena Zambrano
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
This thesis compares the visual representations of Bartolomé Esteban Murillo and the novels La vida de Lazarillo de Tormes y de sus fortunas y adversidades and Rinconete y Cortadillo, to demonstrate their inter artistic relationship. 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.
Officialization And Linguistic Acculturation Of Spanish In The United States Catholic Church, Antonio Medina-Rivera
Officialization And Linguistic Acculturation Of Spanish In The United States Catholic Church, Antonio Medina-Rivera
World Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications
The present investigation brings to light some of the changes associated with the use of English and Spanish in the US Catholic Church. The first part is an examination of the process of officialization from a historical perspective, acknowledging the impact of some groups or associations in the use of vernacular la!_lguages within the Church. The second part examines the role of acculturation during this process of officialization; and the final section analyzes the use of inclusive language in the Church, as an attempt to have a more gender-balanced institution. These three elements serve to provide a more complete perspective …
Baroque Worlds Of The 21st Century, Xavier Gamboa
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 …
Review Of: Women In The Prose Of María De Zayas, Joan M. Hoffman
Review Of: Women In The Prose Of María De Zayas, Joan M. Hoffman
Modern & Classical Languages
With Women in the Prose of Maria de Zayas, Eavan O'Brien presents a remarkable, exception ally well-researched addition to the ever-increasing Maria de Zayas library, albeit with what is, in my estimation, an unfortunate and inexpressive title. O'Brien wholly succeeds in her stated intention to study "the complex ramifications of women's interaction in [Zayas's] prose" (5). Without a doubt, this study does represent "a new contribution to the study of Zayas's prose, unearthing a neglected and innovative aspect, its gynocentrism" (6). Using a very close reading of all twenty tales in Novelas amorosas y ejemplares and Desenganos amorosos, supported by …
The Incertitude Of Language And Life In The Poetry Of Olvido García Valdés, Sharon Keefe Ugalde
The Incertitude Of Language And Life In The Poetry Of Olvido García Valdés, Sharon Keefe Ugalde
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
Two of Ludwig Wittgenstein’s formulations serve as guideposts for the analysis of the poetry of García Valdés: the concept of language-game and the Creation Mystic Experience, or seeing the world as a miracle. The paper first considers the language-game in terms of “unbound” or exempt language. The poet, recognizing the metamorphic nature of language, frees it from predetermined cultural content and, most notably, from grammatical rigidity, toying with ambiguity and fluidity through such techniques as juxtaposition, pronoun vagueness and ellipsis. The second part of the study considers the poet’s exploration of the ineffable, which embraces both the astonishment of being …
Beyond The Pale: “Poesía Postpoética” In Agustín Fernández Mallo’S Joan Fontaine Odisea, W. Michael Mudrovic
Beyond The Pale: “Poesía Postpoética” In Agustín Fernández Mallo’S Joan Fontaine Odisea, W. Michael Mudrovic
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
In a recent article defining his concept of “poesía postpoética,” Agustín Fernández Mallo chides and challenges his contemporaries for being behind the times. While not completely eschewing more traditional techniques of intertextuality and imagery, Fernández Mallo does stress the need to incorporate scientific and mathematical imagery. His book-length poem, Joan Fontaine Odisea (mi deconstrucción) (2005), exemplifies his “poesía postpoética” in its use of allusions to high and popular culture, and scientific concepts, along different types of discourse, to disrupt the commonplace perception of a unified poetic voice. This article will focus on Joan Fontaine Odisea as a modern poetic sequence …
Migration And The Foreign In Contemporary Spanish Poetry: El Sueño De Dakhla (Poemas De Umar Abass) By Manuel Moya, Debra Faszer-Mcmahon
Migration And The Foreign In Contemporary Spanish Poetry: El Sueño De Dakhla (Poemas De Umar Abass) By Manuel Moya, Debra Faszer-Mcmahon
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
Many critical studies have addressed the issue of immigration in contemporary Spanish narrative and film, but far fewer have analyzed this topic within the context of poetry. The representation of immigrant experience in poetic texts is significant not only because poetic works have received less attention, but also because of the significance of poetry within North African and Islamic culture. Manuel Moya’s recent award-winning collection places the question of North African immigration as a central concern. The text purports to offer a compilation of poetry produced by the Western Saharan immigrant Umar Abass, who currently resides in Madrid. The work …
The Song Of Disappearance: Memory, History, And Testimony In The Poetry Of Antonio Gamoneda, Daniel Aguirre-Oteiza
The Song Of Disappearance: Memory, History, And Testimony In The Poetry Of Antonio Gamoneda, Daniel Aguirre-Oteiza
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
This essay explores Antonio Gamoneda’s poetry as an Adornian form of testimony. With its enigmatic foregrounding of lies, the book-length poem Descripción de la mentira ‘Description of the Lie’ can be read as a “contradictory testimony” in which the act and memory of witnessing go, as it were, underground—only to resurface, rife with loss, years after Spain’s transition from dictatorship to democracy. Yet the abstruse character of this poetic writing prevents readers from drawing straightforward political truths about Spanish history from the poem. Losses are inscribed in the text catachrestically, as they truly are: losses. Gamoneda’s poetry has been read …
Memorials, Shrines And Umbrellas In The Rain: Poetry And 11-M, Jill Robbins
Memorials, Shrines And Umbrellas In The Rain: Poetry And 11-M, Jill Robbins
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
This project examines the representations in recent Spanish poetry of violence, solidarity, and memory, as these intersect with ethnic, linguistic and religious otherness, globalization, communication technology, and nationalisms. The lens through which the analysis is refracted is the poetic response to the Islamist terrorist bombings of working-class commuter trains in Madrid on March 11, 2004 (known in Spain as 11-M). This event, which occurred days before national elections, exposed the contradictory cultural forces that underlie notions of the national identity, economic transformation, the role of the media, and the social contract in Spain today. This became apparent in the massive …

Cernuda In Current Spanish Poetry, Salvador J. Fajardo
Cernuda In Current Spanish Poetry, Salvador J. Fajardo
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
The poet Luis Cernuda (Spain, 1902-Mexico, 1963) has left his mark on much of the poetry written in Spain since the sixties. First rediscovered in the Peninsula in the late fifties and early sixties by, among others, Francisco Brines, José Angel Valente, and Jaime Gil de Biedma, his influence became pervasive both through the work of these poets, and, through the reading of Cernuda’s poetry itself, available since 1975 in Harris and Maristany edition. Referring in particular to Biedma, whose impact on younger poets has been significant, this paper examines the presence of Cernuda in certain approaches to language and …
Mysticism, Meditation, And Monologue In Poemas Del Ser Y Del Estar By Ernestina De Champourcin, Catherine G. Bellver
Mysticism, Meditation, And Monologue In Poemas Del Ser Y Del Estar By Ernestina De Champourcin, Catherine G. Bellver
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
Between 1954 and 1972, Ernestina de Champourcin wrote a series of six books centering on her poetic persona’s quest for God and expressions of love toward Him. Poemas del ser y el estar is in many ways the culmination of her religious phase not only because it is the last in the series, but also because in it she reaches the serenity acquired when the search for God is over and the soul can dwell in the blissful state of illumination. Many have found implications of mysticism in her religious poetry. However, in spite of the evidence of a goal …
“No Es Mi Madre La Tierra” ‘The Earth Is Not My Mother’: Ecology In Gloria Fuertes’S Last Poetry, Douglas K. Benson
“No Es Mi Madre La Tierra” ‘The Earth Is Not My Mother’: Ecology In Gloria Fuertes’S Last Poetry, Douglas K. Benson
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
Since the 1930s, Gloria Fuertes’s poetry has attracted listeners and readers to her unique combination of verbal play, witty juxtapositions of erudite and popular sources, and uncanny linguistic virtuosity. Thirteen years after her death in 1998, her popularity continues to grow as new printings of her best-selling books and new editions of her early poetry appear in print. The last book over which she had editorial control, Mujer de verso en pecho (1995) ‘Woman with Verse on her Chest,’ is her most provocative, expanding considerably the thematic range to which she applied her unconventional poetic strategies. One previous thematic element …
Reading Sara Pujol Russell’S Poetry Of Contemplation And Connection, Anita M. Hart
Reading Sara Pujol Russell’S Poetry Of Contemplation And Connection, Anita M. Hart
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
Sara Pujol Russell’s poetry captures a process of expanding consciousness and personal renewal. Through contemplation and attention to nature, the poet-speaker in her works generates a sense of connection that moves her beyond daily concerns. Pujol’s poetry is both metaphysical and also different in that it resists easy classification and is not representative of mainstream trends. This essay approaches the distinctiveness of Pujol’s work by studying selected poems from her third book of poetry in Spanish, Para decir sí a la carencia, sí a la naranja, al azafrán en el pan (2004) ‘To Say Yes to Lack, Yes to the …
Poetic Vision And (In)Visible Pain In Antonio Méndez Rubio’S Trasluz, Paul Cahill
Poetic Vision And (In)Visible Pain In Antonio Méndez Rubio’S Trasluz, Paul Cahill
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
Since the 1980s, visibility has played a key role in debates surrounding Spanish poetry. Novísimo ‘very new’ poets have highlighted and explored the instability and uncertainty of the gaze, while poetas de la experiencia ‘poets of experience’ have more readily accepted the visible without questioning it or the mechanisms used to construct it. Poets who entered the literary scene in the mid to late 1990s have also entered this discussion. Antonio Méndez Rubio, the author of twelve poetry collections and numerous critical and theoretical works, is a poet whose work does not fit easily within the categories usually employed to …
In The Heideggerian Tradition: Acontecimiento By Concha García, Martha Lafollette Miller
In The Heideggerian Tradition: Acontecimiento By Concha García, Martha Lafollette Miller
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
Critics Sharon Keefe Ugalde and Tina Escaja have called the poetry of Concha García “enigmatic,” “unique,” and “avant-garde.” Studies of her work to date tend to attribute the fragmentation and discontinuity of her poetic discourse to her rejection of phallologocentric language. While one of her work’s chief concerns is indeed her speaker’s sense of a radical difference and alienation based on gender, her poetry at the same time directs her reader’s attention to more general ontological considerations. Rather than clearly recounting the events of the life of her poetic protagonist, she rejects the distillations and simplifications that linear narration presupposes …
Syntactically Silent Subjects: Luis Muñoz And The Poetry Of Ellipsis, Judith Nantell
Syntactically Silent Subjects: Luis Muñoz And The Poetry Of Ellipsis, Judith Nantell
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
Luis Muñoz (1966) is one of contemporary Spain’s most salient poets. His work has been described as demonstrating a discourse of ellipsis; yet no study has examined in detail his masterful use of syntactic and figurative omission. In fact, even though Muñoz’s published collections to date span two centuries, no single study has been devoted to his decidedly innovative expressivity. His work has been commented on in various panoramic essays considering contemporary poetry published in Spain at this temporal intersection and a number of his poems have been gathered into noteworthy anthologies of this same era. His poetry has been …
Aplicación De La Teoría De La Imagen A Pinturas Surrealistas Españolas Durante La Guerra Civil Española, Jordan Kirkegaard
Aplicación De La Teoría De La Imagen A Pinturas Surrealistas Españolas Durante La Guerra Civil Española, Jordan Kirkegaard
Undergraduate Honors Thesis Collection
El autor W.J.H.B. Sandberg mencionó que: "Great artists by sorne hidden direction assemble where life is most intense, where a new world is about to be born. They come together to shape a new world." Entre 1936 y 1939, las circunstancias de la vida intensa, difícil, y trágica eran frecuentes en España. Antes de 1936, España había experimentado diferentes sistemas gubernamentales y líderes políticos, de la Primera República, para el restablecimiento de Alfonso XII como rey, a la Segunda República, que comenzó en 1931. Esta Segunda República fue un gobierno más liberal que la monarquía anterior, y los gobernantes establecieron …

La Guerra Civil Española: Un Estudio De La Literatura Como Un Mecanismo De Recuperar La Memoria Colectiva, Lindsay R. Delp
La Guerra Civil Española: Un Estudio De La Literatura Como Un Mecanismo De Recuperar La Memoria Colectiva, Lindsay R. Delp
Scripps Senior Theses
Esta tesis es una exploración de la literatura como un mecanismo de recuperar la memoria colectiva de España después de la Guerra Civil. Los textos de Duelo en El Paraíso por Juan Goytisolo, El cuarto de atrás por Carmen Martín Gaite, Soldados de Salamina de Javier Cercas, y Los girasoles ciegos de Alberto Méndez se utilizan como ejemplos de la literatura de la posguerra que se tratan del tema de la memoria como parte faltante de la sociedad de hoy. El análisis de estos cuatro textos muestra las maneras diferentes en que la literatura puede servir como manera de ganar …
