A Study of the Works of Manuel Mantero
This is a study in English of the poetry of Manuel Mantero, a member of the Spanish Generation of 1950, and winner of major prizes for his poetry while living in Spain, in self-exile in the United States since 1969. In order to make Mantero's poetry accessible to the English-speaker, all foreign quotes, including Mantero's poetry when cited, have been translated. The volume includes a discussion of his novels and critical works in addition to his poetry.
Irony in the Poetry of José de Espronceda, 1826 [i.e. 1808]-1842
Focusing on Jose de Espronceda, who is widely regarded as one of the most outstanding figures in 19th-century Spanish literature because his work features all aspects of Romanticism, this work explores the various types of irony in his poetic works.
Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986) as Writer and Social Critic
The essays in this book, ably edited by Dr. Racz, attempt to read Borges in this counter-monumental mode using the centennial of his birth as a point of departure. It is a fitting way to do Borges in our tangled era, keenly aware of the perils of public memorializing-in Buenos Aires's Memory Park to the disappeared, in New York's Ground Zero memorial to the blown apart-yet striving for the kind of open and fluid remembrance of the past that encourages new telling(s) of what inevitably will become old tales.
Our Air =
This is the second volume of two of a representative anthology of the verse of Jorge Guillen as translated by Carl Cobb.
Experience and Objectivity in the Writings of Rafael Sánchez Ferlosio
This book provides, for the first time, an exposition of his philosophical writings - those on learning and cognition as well as those on reading, writing, and the nature of creativity in his quasi-Cervantine work, Las Semanas del jardin (1974). A consideration of these 'forgotten' works entails a reassessment both of Sanchez Ferlosio's novels, particularly El Jarama, and a critique of some of the critical orthodoxies which have grown up around the objetivista movement of the 1950s.
All My Sonnets
The translation exactly follows Otero's form (usually Petrarchan), and the volume is unique in capturing both scholarly and aesthetic values. Includes an introduction to the essential themes.
Political Revolution and Literary Experiment in the Spanish Romantic Period (1830-1850)
This work brings together the study of political and literary thought in response to revolution in order to present an alternative view of the strength of liberalism generally and progressivism in particular. It re-examines the achievements of progressive thought about politics, history, nationhood, and literature, investigating the basis of the philosophical dispute between Conservative and left Liberals. The strong presence of progressive thought in Spain is affirmed. The study also underlines the importance for literary historians of understanding more sympathetically the contribution of Conservative Liberal thought to a recognizable Liberal Romanticism.
The Aesthetics of Contemporary Spanish American Social Protest Poetry
