Book Synopsis Alfonso X, the Justinian of His Age by : Joseph F. O'Callaghan
Download or read book Alfonso X, the Justinian of His Age written by Joseph F. O'Callaghan and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this magisterial work, Joseph O'Callaghan offers a detailed account of the establishment of Alfonso X's legal code, the Libro de las leyes or Siete Partidas, and its applications in the daily life of thirteenth-century Iberia, both within and far beyond the royal courts. O'Callaghan argues that Alfonso X, el Sabio (the Wise), was the Justinian of his age, one of the truly great legal minds of human history. Alfonso X, the Justinian of His Age highlights the struggles the king faced in creating a new, coherent, inclusive, and all-embracing body of law during his reign, O'Callaghan also considers Alfonso X's own understanding of his role as king, lawgiver, and defender of the faith in order to evaluate the impact of his achievement on the administration of justice. Indeed, such was the power and authority of the Alfonsine code that it proved the king's downfall when his son invoked it to challenge his rule. Throughout this soaring legal and historical biography, O'Callaghan reminds us of the long-term impacts of Alfonso X's legal works, not just on Castilian (and later, Iberian) life, but on the administration of justice across the world.

Book Synopsis Cervantes and the Early Modern Mind by : Isabel Jaén
Download or read book Cervantes and the Early Modern Mind written by Isabel Jaén and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-08-30 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the work of Cervantes in relation to the ideas about the mind that circulated in early modern Europe and were propelled by thinkers such as Juan Luis Vives, Juan Huarte de San Juan, Oliva Sabuco, Andrés Laguna, Andrés Velásquez, Marsilio Ficino, and Gómez Pereira. The editors bring together humanists and scientists: literary scholars and doctors whose interdisciplinary research integrates diverse types of sources (philosophical and medical treatises, natural histories, rhetoric manuals, pharmacopoeias, etc.) alongside Cervantes’s works to examine themes and areas including emotion, human development, animal vs. human consciousness, pathologies of the mind, and mind-altering substances. Their chapters trace the cognitive themes and points of inquiry that Cervantes shares with other early modern thinkers, showing how he both echoes and contributes to early modern views of the mind.
Book Synopsis The Refracted Muse by : Enrique Garcia Santo-Tomas
Download or read book The Refracted Muse written by Enrique Garcia Santo-Tomas and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-08-07 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Galileo never set foot on the Iberian Peninsula, yet, as Enrique García Santo-Tomás unfolds in The Refracted Muse, the news of his work with telescopes brought him to surprising prominence—not just among Spaniards working in the developing science of optometry but among creative writers as well. While Spain is often thought to have taken little notice of the Scientific Revolution, García Santo-Tomás tells a different story, one that reveals Golden Age Spanish literature to be in close dialogue with the New Science. Drawing on the work of writers such as Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Calderón de la Barca, and Quevedo, he helps us trace the influence of science and discovery on the rapidly developing and highly playful genre of the novel. Indeed, García Santo-Tomás makes a strong case that the rise of the novel cannot be fully understood without taking into account its relationship to the scientific discoveries of the period.

Book Synopsis DesmitificacióN de Dogmas y Devociones CatóLicos en Cien añOs de Soledad by : Ernesto Garc a. Uranga
Download or read book DesmitificacióN de Dogmas y Devociones CatóLicos en Cien añOs de Soledad written by Ernesto Garc a. Uranga and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Se podría pensar que vincular la obra maestra Cien años de soledad de Gabriel García Márquez con cuestiones teológicas sería una locura. Sin embargo, en la novela del colombiano -como lo señalara Joaquín Marco en su Estudio introductorio a Cien años de soledad- "Aparecen abundantes elementos religiosos propios de la liturgia católica" que sugieren que no se trata de una simple casualidad; al contrario, todo parece que dichas referencias se dan con toda intención. En el presente trabajo, Ernesto García Uranga toma su lupa y emprende una búsqueda de las referencias a dogmas y devociones católicos presentes en Cien años de soledad. Usando como aval a la Teología histórica para justificar sus argumentos, el investigador se da a la tarea de demostrar que el novelista sudamericano desmitifica, de una manera deliberada, por medio de la parodia, ciertos dogmas y devociones impuestos a los creyentes católicos por el Magisterio de la Iglesia. En este ensayo de ninguna manera se sugiere que dichos dogmas y devociones deben ser eliminados de la cultura religiosa católica; en su lugar, García Uranga deja en claro que, según lo entiende, la verdadera finalidad de la desmitificación que lleva a cabo Gabriel García Márquez en Cien años de soledad es la de conferir a los mencionados dogmas y devociones una interpretación más humana y menos divina a la luz de la justicia social, pues en su forma actual carecen de verdadero significado para el piadoso católico, y, lo que es aún más grave, no encuentran apoyo en las Sagradas Escrituras. "Se requiere", dice el autor de este estudio -citando al decano de la Teología moral católica, profesor Bernard Häring- "de un luto por parte de la Iglesia, de la cabeza y sus miembros, por tantas doctrinas falsas que son constantemente reafirmadas". De lo contrario, si el Vaticano continúa haciendo gala de su terquedad, anteponiendo el Derecho canónico a los Evangelios para la conducción de la Iglesia, se expone a que muchos católicos simplemente le den la espalda. De ahí que sea imprescindible, remata el estudioso, que la Iglesia entienda, como lo puntualiza Leonardo Boff, que "el espíritu de la modernidad no se orienta por la autoridad, sino por la participación". En estos momentos de cambio las ovejas rehúsan permanecer quietas en su redil, ya no se les puede obligar a que crean ciegamente. De ahí que se da por sentado que "Los seres humanos libres" -como indica Mary E. Hines- "tienen el derecho a razones claras por las cuales se les exige creer".
Book Synopsis A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula by : César Domínguez
Download or read book A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula written by César Domínguez and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 765 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 2 of A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula brings to an end this collective work that aims at surveying the network of interliterary relations in the Iberian Peninsula. No attempt at such a comparative history of literatures in the Iberian Peninsula has been made until now. In this volume, the focus is placed on images (Section 1), genres (Section 2), forms of mediation (Section 3), and cultural studies and literary repertoires (Section 4). To these four sections an epilogue is added, in which specialists in literatures in the Iberian Peninsula, as well as in the (sub)disciplines of comparative history and comparative literary history, search for links between Volumes 1 and 2 from the point of view of general contributions to the field of Iberian comparative studies, and assess the entire project that now reaches completion with contributions from almost one hundred scholars.
Book Synopsis Urbanism and Urbanity by : Leigh Mercer
Download or read book Urbanism and Urbanity written by Leigh Mercer and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the study of more than twenty novels produced in Spain from the 1840s to the 1920s, this book explores the literary means by which the social options available to modern Spanish bourgeois citizens were discursively constructed, occasionally before and often concomitantly to their production in reality. As a result, this study is concerned with the interplay of realism and reality in modern Spain. From the earliest folletines of the 1840s to the Modernist novels of the 1920s, the majority of novels written in this eighty-year period are what one might term novelas de costumbres contempor neas, or novels of contemporary customs, and therefore primarily concerned with faithfully copying and moreover influencing real social norms in the public sphere. In these pages, I argue that the spatial and behavioral discourses in the novels of contemporary customs offer a telling history of the evolving formulation of the Spanish bourgeoisie. The linking of novels and urbanism is hardly arbitrary in the context of nineteenth-century Spain. Urbanism, particularly in the nineteenth century, was as much a verbal construction as the novel, as proven by the lengthy treatises of such prominent Spanish bureaucrats, engineers, architects, and urban planners as Ram n de Mesonero Romanos, Ildefons Cerd and Carlos Mar a de Castro. For Spanish intellectuals of this era, city planning and the novel functioned as parallel, enmeshed discourses in which to work out what it meant to be middle class and the roles this class ought to play in contemporary society. In this way, they can be considered associated fields of discourse, in the sense described by Michel Foucault in The Archaeology of Knowledge. Foucault's treatise was a call for scholars to reexamine historical fields and question the historical grouping of knowledge(s) into certain discursive unities, and consider whether these might be broken up and new ones conceived. In this vein, this book undertakes a broader and more integrative view of the Spanish nineteenth century, calling into question the boundaries of fields such as etiquette and urban planning, or literature and touristic discourse.

Download or read book Selected Suites written by Federico García Lorca and published by Aris and Phillips Hispanic Cla. This book was released on 2018 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A generous selection and fresh translation of Lorca's suites, work that might have taken its place beside Songs (1927) and Poem of the Deep Song (1931) as a trilogy of Lorca's early modernist lyric. More personal than the other two works, Lorca's suites explore a 'heart without echo' in his time.

Book Synopsis Secrets of Pinar's Game (2 vols) by : Roger Boase
Download or read book Secrets of Pinar's Game (2 vols) written by Roger Boase and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 950 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Secrets of Pinar’s Game, Roger Boase is the first to decipher a card game completed in 1496 for Queen Isabel, Prince Juan, her daughters and her 40 court ladies. This game offers readers access to the cultural memory of a group of educated women, revealing their knowledge of proverbs, poetry and sentimental romance, their understanding of the symbolism of birds and trees, and many facts ignored in official sources. Boase translates all verse into English, reassesses the jousting invenciones in the Cancionero general (1511), reinterprets the poetry of Pinar’s sister Florencia, and identifies Acevedo, author of some poems about festivities in Murcia c. 1507. He demonstrates that many of Pinar’s ladies reappear as prostitutes in the anonymous Carajicomedia two decades later.
