Download or read book The Devil and the Land of the Holy Cross written by Laura de Mello e Souza and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-05 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in Brazil as O Diabo e a Terra de Santa Cruz, this translation from the Portuguese analyzes the nature of popular religion and the ways it was transferred to the New World in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Using richly detailed transcripts from Inquisition trials, Mello e Souza reconstructs how Iberian, indigenous, and African beliefs fused to create a syncretic and magical religious culture in Brazil. Focusing on sorcery, the author argues that European traditions of witchcraft combined with practices of Indians and African slaves to form a uniquely Brazilian set of beliefs that became central to the lives of the people in the colony. Her work shows how the Inquisition reinforced the view held in Europe (particularly Portugal) that the colony was a purgatory where those who had sinned were exiled, a place where the Devil had a wide range of opportunities. Her focus on the three centuries of the colonial period, the multiple regions in Brazil, and the Indian, African, and Portuguese traditions of magic, witchcraft, and healing, make the book comprehensive in scope. Stuart Schwartz of Yale University says, "It is arguably the best book of this genre about Latin America...all in all, a wonderful book." Alida Metcalf of Trinity University, San Antonio, says, "This book is a major contribution to the field of Brazilian history...the first serious study of popular religion in colonial Brazil...Mello e Souza is a wonderful writer."

Download or read book A Dictionary of Symbols written by J. E. Cirlot and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2023-07-11 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic encyclopedia of symbols by the renowned Spanish poet illuminates the imagery of myth, modern psychology, literature, and art. J. E. Cirlot’s A Dictionary of Symbols is a feat of scholarship, an act of the imagination, and a tool for contemplation, as well as a work of literature—a reference book that is as indispensable as it is brilliant and learned. Cirlot was a composer, poet, critic, and champion of modern art whose interest in surrealism helped introduce him to the study of symbolism. This volume explores the space between the world at large and the world within, where nothing is meaningless, and everything is in some way related to something else. Running from “abandonment” to “zone” by way of “flute” and “whip,” spanning the cultures of the world, and including a wealth of visual images to further bring the reality of the symbol home, A Dictionary of Symbols is a luminous and illuminating investigation of the works of eternity in time.

Download or read book Cuentos españoles de tema mitológico written by Jesús Maire Bobes and published by Ediciones Akal. This book was released on 2005-04-13 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antiguamente los mitos ofrecían explicaciones del mundo y de la vida, del nacimiento de las ciudades y de la genealogía de los grupos sociales dominantes. Exponían el ideario religioso, meditaban sobre la existencia humana, transmitían una moralidad determinada y suponían una fuente inagotable de inspiración para la literatura. Los mitos formaron la base de alegorías e ingeniosos emblemas, legitimaron escenas eróticas, sirvieron para alabar a los monarcas. Las numerosas variantes que fueron adoptando muestran que los mitos han ido cambiando su contenido y función. Ulises es, en algunos casos, un bribón. en otros, un vagabundo. Tártaro (variante de Polifemo) actúa con malicia, pero otras se comporta bondadosamente. La mitología ha ejercido gran influencia en nuestra literatura, según se podrá comprobar en esta antología, la cual recoge textos de Juan de Mena, Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Góngora, Quevedo, Feijoo, Fernán Caballero, Trueba, Blasco Ibáñez y Pérez de Ayala, entre otros grandes escritores. El volumen se completa con un variado conjunto de actividades cuyo objetivo consiste, básicamente, en facilitar a los alumnos la comprensión de los textos, reflexionar sobre la conducta humana y fomentar una educación en valores.

Download or read book The Golden Age Comedia written by Charles Ganelin and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the groundbreaking Spanish scholarship and editions of earlier generations and relying on research conducted in Spanish archives, this pioneering group of English-speaking scholars offers a new treatment of familiar material. The editors yoke together widely varying critical practices, including incisive New Critical readings and far-reaching explorations that draw on the most current European critical thought. In addition to these more strictly literary studies, there are interdisciplinary essays focusing on seventeenth- and twentieth-century reception and the social makeup of the comedia audience. The whole thus presents a balanced picture of the many ways in which the comedia can be viewed, and the contributors complement each other's work in often surprising ways, illuminating the same corpus from a number of perspectives.

Download or read book The Perilous Hunt written by Edith Randam Rogers and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the symbolic language of ballads, a lady's costly dress tells of the beauty of the body beneath it or of the wearer's happiness; a lost hawk or hound foreshadows the hunter's fate long before the plot reaches a turning point. In her original and far-reaching study of such familiar narrative elements, Edith Randam Rogers adds much to our understanding of poetic expression in the ballad tradition. In focusing on individual motifs as they appear in different ballads, different languages, and different periods, Rogers proves the existence of a reliable lingua franca of symbolism in European balladry. Lines or even whole stanzas that have defied interpretation often come to life when the reader is aware of the meaning of a particular motif in such an international vocabulary of images. Thus this book makes available important new critical tools sure to have significant results for ballad scholarship.

Download or read book Medieval Spanish Epic written by Thomas Montgomery and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes a new look at the place occupied by medieval Spanish epic within European folk and literary tradition. Thomas Montgomery traces the origins of key parts of most known medieval Spanish epics to an ancient myth. He shows how the myth of the initiation of the young warrior, shown by Georges Dum&ézil to be fundamental to the belief systems of widely distributed Indo-European peoples, was variously adapted to shape the action of texts including the Siete Infantes de Lara, the Mocedades de Rodrigo, and the Poema de Mio Cid, in which it accounts for the peculiar behavior of the Infantes de Carri&ón. Montgomery also connects the same mythic tradition to works as diverse as Tristan and the Chanson de Roland. In a preliterate society, the oral presentation of this archetypal lore required a special language capable of re-creating the ritualized behavior of the epic characters and maintaining the ceremonial tone of the performance. Focusing on the Poema de Mio Cid, Montgomery examines the ways in which the poetic language worked to evoke a feeling of group unity that absorbed the audience and still works its spell upon today's readers.
