Portraying Authorship

Portraying Authorship argues that the medieval Castilian writer Juan Manuel fashioned a seemingly modern authorial persona from the accumulation and synthesis of medieval authorial roles. In the manuscript culture of medieval Castile and across Latin Europe, writers typically referred to their work in ways that corresponded to their role in the bookmaking process: scribes took credit for preserving the works of others, compilers for combining disparate texts in productive ways, commentators for explaining obscure works, and authors for writing their own words. Combining literary analysis with book history, Anita Savo reveals how Juan Manuel forged his authorial persona, “Don Juan,” by ad...

Food, Feasting and Table Manners in the Late Middle Ages

This book offers a study of what and how people ate in the Iberian Peninsula between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries. It has long been recognized that Mediterranean cultures attach great importance to communal meals and food cooked with great refinement. However, whilst medieval feasting in England, France and Italy has been thoroughly studied, Spain and Portugal have both been somewhat neglected in this area of study. This volume analyses how medieval men of the Iberian Peninsula questioned themselves about different aspects deemed important in social feasting. It investigates the acquisition of table manners and rhetorical skills, the interaction between medicine and eating, and the presence of food in literature and religion. The book also shows how this shared society and culture, as well as their attitude towards food, connected them to a Western European tradition. The book will appeal to scholars and students alike interested in food and feasting from the perspectives of literature, history, language, art, religion and medicine, and to those interested in a social, cultural and literary overview of life in the Iberian Peninsula during the late Middle Ages.

Le genre bref

Ce livre propose des contributions qui examinent la notion de « genre bref » à la lumière de différents supports ou de différents canaux d’information (panneaux, inscriptions diverses, mais aussi affiches publicitaires, cinématographiques, slogans, recettes de cuisine, SMS). Il met en évidence les contraintes grammaticales, lexicales et énonciatives qui s’y manifestent et montre comment une dimension esthétique ou ludique peut s’inviter dans ce genre, favorisant ainsi un lien avec le destinataire, même si l’appareil énonciatif y est généralement fort réduit.

Fraseopragmática

Este volumen reúne trabajos de algunos de los principales investigadores que, especialmente en España, pero también en el extranjero, están estudiando el repertorio fraseológico desde una perspectiva pragmática. Sus contribuciones ofrecen una panorámica completa de los diferentes tipos de estudios pragmáticos que, sobre las unidades fraseológicas de diversas lenguas, se están desarrollando en la actualidad, con el objetivo fundamental de proponer una mirada a la fraseología en su empleo en discursos reales y en las diversas formas en que el contexto la determina. La investigación en esta dirección, así como el esfuerzo por sentar las bases de una subdisciplina emergente (la Fraseopragmática), constituyen, por tanto, los principales valores de este volumen.

La otra mirada: el "exemplum" histórico

El exemplum histórico es una de las formas más difundidas del relato breve medieval. Acontecimientos, anécdotas, leyendas, crónicas han sido unas de las tantas fuentes que sirvieron para crear este especial tipo de narración. El presente estudio ofrece por primera vez un estudio global de esta forma narrativa que transitó toda la Edad Media y todos sus géneros. Cada capítulo va acompañado de Excursus que ofrecen estudios particulares sobre autores y relatos. El exemplum histórico no fue para el hombre medieval una forma entre otras de relatar acontecimientos: en sus manos se transformó en una manera más libre y personal de mirar la historia.

Freedom, Imprisonment, and Slavery in the Pre-Modern World

Contrary to common assumptions, medieval and early modern writers and poets often addressed the high value of freedom, whether we think of such fable authors as Marie de France or Ulrich Bonerius. Similarly, medieval history knows of numerous struggles by various peoples to maintain their own freedom or political independence. Nevertheless, as this study illustrates, throughout the pre-modern period, the loss of freedom could happen quite easily, affecting high and low (including kings and princes) and there are many literary texts and historical documents that address the problems of imprisonment and even enslavement (Georgius of Hungary, Johann Schiltberger, Hans Ulrich Krafft, etc.). Simu...

Jusqu’à une date récente, la recherche sur les proverbes restait marginale, soit en annexe de certains travaux d’ethnologie, soit en complément d’études littéraires. Les grammaires traditionnelles classaient simplement dictons et adages dans le parler populaire, le folklore, hors du beau langage et du bon usage. La parémiologie (l’étude scientifique des proverbes) n’avait donc ni méthodologie claire ni définitions solides à partir desquelles se développer. On assiste actuellement à un renouveau de ce champ de recherche. Afin de faciliter les travaux futurs, cet ouvrage offre au lecteur les éléments nécessaires à l’étude linguistique du proverbe, dans les langues ...
