El barroco, una modernidad contracapitalista

  • Categories: Art

¿El barroco puede constituir una alternativa de modernidad? En este libro los autores destacan que en el barroco latinoamericano hay una representación paródica, gozosa e irónica de la dominación de clase, de raza o de género. La narrativa literaria, al plantear los conflictos, interpela al lector para que participe en la historia. La creatividad formal de estas manifestaciones narrativas y su expresividad barroca consisten en incorporar el diálogo para cuestionar el predominio del lenguaje del poder, como único creador de sentido. En otros ensayos se destaca la necesidad de desarrollar una concepción de una educación contracapitalista desde la perspectiva de la hermenéutica barroca multicultural.

El Obispo Leproso

Gabriel Francisco Miro Ferrer was born on July 28th 1879, in Alicante on the Costa Blanca. Brought up in the Castilian-speaking Alicante, Miro was sent away to school in nearby Orihela, aged eight. The Jesuit Colegio de Santo Domingo would become the "Jesus" in The Leper Bishop. Miro studied Law, first a the University of Valencia, then at Granada, from which he graduated in 1900. He married in 1901, at the age of 22, and in that same year published his first novel, La mujer de Ojeda. The Leper Bishop was published in December 1926, when Miro was a grandfather, and he died not long afterwards, in May 1930, of peritonitis. The Leper Bishop (El obispo leproso) follows the story (begun in Our Father San Daniel) of a boy, Pablo, who is sent to a Jesuit school - a place where an extremist version of Catholicism is inflicted on its pupils. The novel portrays the struggle between innocence and evil, which, by the end of the book, is tempered by understanding. Miro has traditionally been seen as a writer difficult or impossible to translate, with very few of his works available in English. It is hoped that this edition will bring this lyrical writer's work to a wider audience.

Lope de Vega: Fuente Ovejuna

Fuente Ovejuna (C.1613) is the most famous and frequently performed play by the creator of Spanish theatre, Lope de Vega (1562-1635). Astonishingly for its period, it celebrates the murder in 1476 of a nobleman, the Grand Commander of the Military Order of Calatrava, by the peasants he had oppressed, and their subsequent solidarity under torture. Fuente Ovejuna, however, is less a history lesson or political tract than an optimistic moral fable.

Halma

Annotation Galdós' early writings were inspired by the French writer Emile Zola, a practitioner of the literary school of naturalism. This interest then turned to a type of spiritual naturalism under the influence of Russian writers, including Tolstoy, Dostoevsky and Turgenev, whom he called his 'great teacher.' One of his most important works during this period was 'Halma', the story of an aristocratic lady who decides to use her inheritance to found an idyllic Christian society for the sick and the needy. This book examines Galdós' influential novel.
