LOS MORISCOS EN EL ESPEJO DEL TIEMPO
Difícil será encontrar en toda la Historia de España asuntos que hayan interesado tanto (no sólo a los investigadores sino también a poetas, dramaturgos, novelistas y escritores políticos) como los de la conversión forzada, el alzamiento y la expulsión de los moriscos, sus incidentes y sus vicisitudes. Tales reflexiones, formuladas hace más de cuarenta años por Julio Caro Baroja, impulsaron el espíritu y los objetivos de este trabajo, cuyo fin no es sino representar las diferentes imágenes que el pueblo morisco generó en las visiones de quienes les historiaron.
Gender and the Woman Artist in Early Modern Iberia
This monograph explores the social constructs surrounding artistic production in early modern Iberia through the lenses of gender and class by examining the rarely considered contribution of creative women in Spain and Portugal between 1550 and 1700. Using the life-stage framework popular in texts of the period and drawing on a broad spectrum of materials including conduct guidebooks, treatises and conventual rules, this book examines the constraints imposed by gender-related social structures through microhistories of nuns, married, and unmarried women. The text spans class boundaries in its analysis of the work of painters, engravers, and sculptors, many of whom have until now eluded scholarly attention in English-language publications. An extensive bibliography promotes new avenues of inquiry into women’s contributions to the visual arts of the period. This book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, gender studies, women’s history, early modern Iberian studies, and Renaissance studies.
Las mujeres y las emociones en Europa y América. Siglos XVII-XIX
Esta obra es fruto de un esfuerzo colectivo centrado en el estudio de las emociones en la Edad Moderna, con un claro protagonista: las mujeres, bien como sujetos activos, o como objetos del afán y las pasiones procedentes de hombres, grupos o profesiones. La importancia del estudio de lo emocional, de manifiesto en las últimas décadas, se plasma aquí en un acercamiento espacial diverso (Inglaterra, España, Sur de la América Colonial) en tiempos amplios (siglos XVII-XIX), y enfoques interdisciplinares: la Historia, la Literatura, el Arte confluyen en una mirada temática. En el centro: las mujeres.
The Expulsion of the Moriscos from Spain
The expulsion of the Moriscos from Spain (1609-1614) represents an important episode of ethnic, political and religious cleansing which affected about 300,000 persons. The controversial measure was legimitized by an ideology of religious and political unity that served to defend the expulsion of them all, crypto-Muslims and sincere converts to Christianity alike. The first part focuses on the decision to expel the Moriscos, its historical context and the role of such institutions as the Vatican and the religious orders, and nations such as France, Italy, the Dutch Republic, Morocco and the Ottoman Empire. The second part studies the aftermath of the expulsion, the forced migrations, settlement and Diaspora of the Moriscos, comparing their vicissitudes with that of the Jewish conversos. Contributors are Youssef El Alaoui, Rafael Benítez Sánchez Blanco, Luis Fernando Bernabé Pons, Paulo Broggio, Miguel Ángel de Bunes Ibarra, Antonio Feros, Mercedes García-Arenal, Jorge Gil Herrera,Tijana Krstić, Sakina Missoum, Natalia Muchnik, Stefania Pastore, Juan Ignacio Pulido Serrano, James B. Tueller, Olatz Villanueva Zubizarreta, Bernard Vincent, and Gerard Wiegers.
Marriage Discourses
Marriage was historically not only a romantic ideal, but a tool of exploitation of women in many regards. Women were often considered commodities and marriage was far away from the romantic stereotypes people relate to it today. While marriages served as diplomatic tools or means of political legitimization in the past, the discourses about marital relationships changed and women expressed their demands more openly. Discourses about marriage in history and literature naturally became more and more heated, especially during the "long" 19th century, when marriages were contested by social reformers or political radicals, male and female alike. The present volume provides a discussion of the role of marriage and the discourses about in different chronological and geographical contexts and shows which arguments played an important role for the demand for more equality in martial relationships. It focuses on marriage discourses, may they have been legal or rather socio-political ones. In addition, the disputes about marriage in literary works of the 19th and 20th centuries are presented to complement the historical debates.
LAS MUJERES Y EL HONOR EN LA EUROPA MODERNA
Tratar de mujeres y de honor en la Edad Moderna supone abordar mundos y debates amplísimos. Precisamente por la divulgación y expansión del concepto honor que había cargado de connotaciones el propio término, ampliando su significación semántica, y por el mantenimiento de un rol femenino, a lo largo de los siglos, que en gran medida seguía danzando en torno al honor delos orígenes y al capital heredado lo que en las mujeres se identificaba sobre todo con su vertiente sexual.
