Mapping Gendered Routes and Spaces in the Early Modern World
How did gender figure in understandings of spatial realms, from the inner spaces of the body to the furthest reaches of the globe? How did women situate themselves in the early modern world, and how did they move through it, in both real and imaginary locations? How do new disciplinary and geographic connections shape the ways we think about the early modern world, and the role of women and men in it? These are the questions that guide this volume, which includes articles by a select group of scholars from many disciplines: Art History, Comparative Literature, English, German, History, Landscape Architecture, Music, and Women's Studies. Each essay reaches across fields, and several are written by interdisciplinary groups of authors. The essays also focus on many different places, including Rome, Amsterdam, London, and Paris, and on texts and images that crossed the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, or that portrayed real and imagined people who did. Many essays investigate topics key to the ’spatial turn’ in various disciplines, such as borders and their permeability, actual and metaphorical spatial crossings, travel and displacement, and the built environment.

Portraits and Poses
Interdisciplinary and cross-cultural view on authority construction among early modern female intellectuals The complex relation between gender and the representation of intellectual authority has deep roots in European history. Portraits and Poses adopts a historical approach to shed new light on this topical subject. It addresses various modes and strategies by which learned women (authors, scientists, jurists, midwifes, painters, and others) sought to negotiate and legitimise their authority at the dawn of modern science in Early Modern and Enlightenment Europe (1600–1800). This volume explores the transnational dimensions of intellectual networks in France, Italy, Britain, the German states and the Low Countries, among others. Drawing on a wide range of case studies from different spheres of professionalisation, it examines both individual and collective constructions of female intellectual authority through word and image. In its innovative combination of an interdisciplinary and transnational approach, this volume contributes to the growing literature on women and intellectual authority in the Early Modern Era and outlines contours for future research.
For the Sake of Learning
In this tribute to Anthony Grafton, a preeminent historian of early modern European intellectual and textual culture and of classical scholarship, fifty-eight contributors present new research across the many areas in which Grafton has been active. The articles span topics from late antiquity to the 20th century, from Europe to North American, and a full spectrum of fields of learning, including art history, the history of science, classics, Jewish and oriental studies, church history and theology, English and German literature, political, social, and book history. Major themes include the communities and dynamics of the Republic of Letters, the reception of classical texts, libraries and bo...
Escultura Barroca Española. Escultura Barroca Andaluza
Si esta tierra es rica en manifestaciones artísticas de todos los periodos, casi con total seguridad uno de los productos estrella es la escultura "barroca", y utilizamos el término barroco, no sin incumbir en error, de elevarnos sobre su enclave de temporalidad, para aludir a un arte cuyas claves sociales se han mantenido desde el siglo XVII hasta la actualidad, más que a unas meras características formales, que ha sabido reinventarse y crear nuevos lenguajes, formales, expresivos, creativos, etc. Probablemente sea en Andalucía, donde a lo largo de la Historia se hayan establecido las relaciones más "humanamente" posibles, entre esculturas y personas. Pocas comunidades han vivido a lo...
MALAS
Malas es el sexto volumen del Seminario Permanente sobre Literatura y Mujer (siglos XX y XXI). Después de los estudios precedentes Universos femeninos en la literatura actual. Mujeres de papel, Tejiendo el mito, Ecos de la memoria, Mujeres a la conquista de espacio y Mujeres en la frontera, el seminario ha centrado su atención en la intrincada relación de la mujer con el concepto de bondad y maldad dentro de la cultura patriarcal. El concepto moderno de mujer buena, y su antagónica mujer mala, nace en las postrimerías del siglo XIX cuando a la mujer se le otorga la posibilidad de la agencia del bien. “El ángel del hogar” que describiera el poeta británico Coventry Patmore en su poema homónimo (1854) se contrapone a lo que hasta entonces la mujer “ha sido” en el imaginario de la cultura patriarcal: la demoniaca y tentadora Eva. En este volumen un elenco de investigadores e investigadoras nacionales e internacionales examinan en los diferentes capítulos cuestiones sobre la representación literaria y en las artes visuales de la buena y la mala señalando sus ambigüedades, contradicciones, paradojas y cambios.
