Wall to Wall: Law as Culture in Latin America and Spain
'Wall to Wall: Law as Culture in Latin America and Spain' comprises interventions from a wide array of scholars based in the US, Spain, and Latin America, exploring the encounter of Hispanophone cultures and the law. Its contributors delineate a fraught relationship of complicity, negotiation, and outright confrontation covering five centuries and a truly global landscape, from Inquisitorial processes at the onset of the Spanish Empire to last-ditch plans to preserve it in the 19th century Philippines, to the challenges to contemporary articulations of the nation-state in Catalonia. Beyond single, specialized time-period and national cultures, 'Wall to Wall' embraces and showcases the hetero...
La Retirada Del Poema
A partir de detallados análisis textuales y un marco teórico que parte de la fenomenología política de Hannah Arendt y la deconstrucción, este libro pormenoriza escenarios políticos concretos (guerra, campo de concentración, exilio, dictadura, post-dictadura) cuyo impacto cultural no se reduce al momento en el que los hechos tuvieron lugar. La retirada de lo poético y la retirada de lo político no expresan solo la desolación de un historia trágica, sino que apuntan a otro mundo, un afuera, desde el que oponerse a una realidad sin horizonte.La obra compila una constelación original de autores en España y Latinoamérica, poetas, novelistas, pensadoras, reunidos por una intuición:...

Disoriented Disciplines
An urgent call to think on the edges, surfaces, and turns of the literary artifact when it crosses cultural boundaries In the absence of specialized programs of study, abstract discussions of China in Latin America took shape in contingent critical infrastructures built at the crossroads of the literary market, cultural diplomacy, and commerce. As Rosario Hubert reveals, modernism flourishes comparatively, in contexts where cultural criticism is a creative and cosmopolitan practice. Disoriented Disciplines: China, Latin America, and the Shape of World Literature understands translation as a material act of transfer, decentering the authority of the text and connecting seemingly untranslatabl...
The Op-Ed Novel
The Op-Ed Novel follows a clutch of globally renowned Spanish novelists who swept into the political sphere via the pages of El País. Their literary sensibility transformed opinion journalism, and their weekly columns changed their novels, which became venues for speculative historical claims, partisan political projects, and intellectual argument.
Urbanism and Urbanity
Through the study of more than twenty novels produced in Spain from the 1840s to the 1920s, this book explores the literary means by which the social options available to modern Spanish bourgeois citizens were discursively constructed, occasionally before and often concomitantly to their production in reality. As a result, this study is concerned with the interplay of realism and reality in modern Spain. From the earliest folletines of the 1840s to the Modernist novels of the 1920s, the majority of novels written in this eighty-year period are what one might term novelas de costumbres contempor neas, or novels of contemporary customs, and therefore primarily concerned with faithfully copying...

B@belonline vol. 8 Paul Ricœur: Narrative Identity Between Hermeneutics and Psychoanalysis/Paul Ricœur: L’identità narrativa tra ermeneutica e psicoanalisi
Il volume analizza, con i contributi dei maggiori studiosi nazionali e internazionali, un tema preciso della multiforme e polifonica opera del grande filosofo del ‘900 Paul Ricœur: L’identità narrativa tra ermeneutica e psicoanalisi. Notevole e significativo è l’emergere di tale rapporto e questa reciproca attenzione di filosofi e psicoanalisti ai testi ricœuriani da cui deriva un vero e proprio mit-denken tra ermeneutica e psicoanalisi. Centrale è l’attenzione alla ‘rete concettuale della soggettività’, per cui si mostra la fecondità dell’ermeneutica proprio in relazione alla questione del sé psicoanalitico, del soggetto e dell’identità, per comprendere la narratività stessa, cioè il raccontarsi di tale soggetto, in situazione patologica.
