Converso Non-Conformism in Early Modern Spain

This book examines the effects of Jewish conversions to Christianity in late medieval Spanish society. Ingram focuses on these converts and their descendants (known as conversos) not as Judaizers, but as Christian humanists, mystics and evangelists, who attempt to create a new society based on quietist religious practice, merit, and toleration. His narrative takes the reader on a journey from the late fourteenth-century conversions and the first blood purity laws (designed to marginalize conversos), through the early sixteenth-century Erasmian and radical mystical movements, to a Counter-Reformation environment in which conversos become the advocates for pacifism and concordance. His account ends at the court of Philip IV, where growing intolerance towards Madrid’s converso courtiers is subtly attacked by Spain’s greatest painter, Diego Velázquez, in his work, Los Borrachos. Finally, Ingram examines the historiography of early modern Spain, in which he argues the converso reform phenomenon continues to be underexplored.

Este libro recoge por primera vez todos los estudios dispersos de Diego Angulo sobre Velázquez: artículos, ensayos, notas breves, prólogos y reseñas de libros o exposiciones de tema velazqueño. Publicados a lo largo de cuatro décadas, son treinta y siete textos en los que se ponen claramente de manifiesto su profunda formación y su extraordinaria capacidad de análisis formal e iconográfico. Algunos de ellos, como los dedicados a las Hilanderas o al método compositivo de Velázquez, abrieron nuevos caminos que resultarían después muy fecundos. A manera de esclarecedora introducción, Javier Portús hace un balance crítico de la faceta velazquista de Angulo y lo sitúa en el contexto de la historiografía artística española.

'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
