XVI Juegos Literarios Nacionales Universitarios
He aquí una edición más, una apasionante ofrenda a la palabra: los XVI Juegos Literarios Nacionales Universitarios UADY, que en esta ocasión nos llevan a dar un paseo por los límites de la idea, los delgados pliegues entre el acto y la escritura. Leerás «El Combate» de Sandra Martínez, ganadora del Premio Nacional de Cuento «Jesús Amaro Gamboa». Reconocerás la ceguera de habitarse en sí mismo, en comer el bocado cotidiano de la humanidad. Somos lo que vemos o lo que omitimos. Somos. En «Álbum» de José Aguirre, Premio Nacional de Poesía «Rosario Castellanos», nos encontramos en los recuerdos familiares, en las fotografías que se convierten en homenaje al pasado. Hay nost...
Sceptres and Sciences in the Spains
Sceptres and Sciences argues convincingly that previous research on the Hispanic Late Baroque has underweighted the ideologies of ethnicity and empire embedded in Cartesianism and French neoclassicism. "... a masterful work of scholarship... should become essential reading in the field of Colonial and Spanish Enlightenment Studies."—Bulletin of Hispanic Studies
Apologia and Criticism
This book is the first modern overview of the history of historiography in Spain. It covers sources from Juan de Mariana's History of Spain, written at the end of the sixteenth century, up to current historical writings and their context. The main objective of the book is to shed light on the continuities and breaks in the ways that Spanish historians represented ideas of Spain. The concept of historiography used is wide enough to span not only academic works and institutions but also public uses of history, including the history taught in schools. The methodology employed by the author combines the tradition of studies of national identity with those of historiography. One of the key themes in the book is the role of the historical profession in Spain and its influence on national discourse from the nineteenth century onwards.
Lugubrious Nights
This is the first English translation of a lyrical poem in prose that Sebold considers to be the first fully Romantic work of continental European literature.
Conscience on Stage
It is no accident that some variation of the question 'What should I do?' appears in over three-quarters of the comedic plays of the Spanish Golden Age. Casuistical dialogue was a concern, even an obsession, of Spanish playwrights during the seventeenth century, many of whom were educated by Jesuit casuists. Conscience on Stage is a study of casuistry or case morality as the foundation for a poetics of seventeenth-century Spanish >em>comedias. Hilaire Kallendorf examines the Jesuit upbringing and casuistical education of major playwrights of the Spanish Golden Age, many of whom were also priests, and introduces the vocabulary of casuistry, as expressed in both confessors' manuals and in stag...
Hierarchy, Commerce and Fraud in Bourbon Spanish America
Using El lazarillo de ciegos caminantes (the "Guide for Blind Rovers" by Alonso Carrio de Lavandera, the best known work of the era) as a jumping off point for a sprawling discussion of 18th-century Spanish America, Ruth Hill argues for a richer, more nuanced understanding of the relationship between Spain and its western colonies. Armed with primary sources including literature, maps, census data, letters, and diaries, Hill reveals a rich world of intrigue and artifice, where identity is surprisingly fluid and always in question. More importantly, Hill crafts a complex argument for reassessing our understanding of race and class distinctions at the time, with enormous implications for how we view conceptions of race and class today.
