Book Synopsis The Literary Mind of Medieval and Renaissance Spain by : Otis H. Green
Download or read book The Literary Mind of Medieval and Renaissance Spain written by Otis H. Green and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twelve essays in this fiorilegio of the work of Otis H. Green afford a representative view of the thought and scholarship of one of the world's foremost Hispanists. In each of them is developed some important facet of the intellectual milieu of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, reflecting Otis Green's life-long and wide-ranging quest for evidence that would broaden our understanding of those complex periods and correct the misapprehensions which have gathered about them. Included are important sections of his great work, Spain and the Western Tradition and essays from journals now difficult to obtain or out of print. This book provides a valuable introduction to Spanish thought and to the work of a scholar who has done much to elucidate it.
Book Synopsis Right Thinking and Sacred Oratory in Counter-Reformation Rome by : Frederick J. McGinness
Download or read book Right Thinking and Sacred Oratory in Counter-Reformation Rome written by Frederick J. McGinness and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the end of the sixteenth century, when painters, writers, and scientists from all over Europe flocked to Rome for creative inspiration, the city was also becoming the center of a vibrant and assertive Roman Catholic culture. Closely identified with Rome, the Counter-Reformation church sought to strengthen itself by building on Rome's symbolic value and broadcasting its cultural message loudly and skillfully to the European world. In a book that captures the texture and flavor of this rhetorical strategy, Frederick McGinness explores the new emphasis placed on preaching by Roman church leaders. Looking at the development of a sacred oratory designed to move the heart, he traces the formation of a long-lasting Catholic worldview and reveals the ingenuity of the Counter-Reformation in the transformation of Renaissance humanism. McGinness not only describes the theory of sermon-writing, but also reconstructs the circumstances, social and physical, in which sermons were delivered. The author considers how sermons blended spirituality with pious legends--for example, stories of the early martyrs--and evocative metaphors to fashion a respublica christiana of loyal Catholics. Preachers projected a "right" view of history, social relationships, and ecclesiastical organization, while depicting a spiritual topography upon which Catholics could chart a path to salvation. At the center of this topography was Rome, a vast stage set for religious pageantry, which McGinness brings to life as he follows the homiletic representations of the city from a bastion of Christian militancy to a haven of harmony, light, and tranquility. Originally published in 1995.

Book Synopsis Image - Object - Performance by : Astrid Windus
Download or read book Image - Object - Performance written by Astrid Windus and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2013 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Images, objects, and performances represent essential forms of mediality, which frequently escape our traditional understanding of historical communication. This volume discusses from an interdisciplinary perspective the varying structures and media of communication and representation in transcultural spaces of Latin America and the Philippines. Based on different topics and methodological approaches of the contributors, the articles reflect on the perspectives and problems of the integration of visuality, materiality, and performance as categories of cultural analysis in historical settings between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. In that regard, both the methodological and regional comparative approaches of this volume claim to contribute-beyond the regional focus of the studies-to the general debate about cultural theories and to make general statements about the mechanisms of cross-cultural communication in cultural contact zones of the modern period.
Download or read book Juan Esquivel written by Clive Walkley and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2010 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First study of Juan Esquivel, a highly significant figure in Spanish musical life in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Juan Esquivel was a cathedral choirmaster and composer, active in Spain during the period c.1580-c .1623 in which all aspects of the arts flourished, and one of the few peninsular composers of his generation to see his works published. He is known to have produced three large volumes of sacred polyphony - masses, motets, hymns, psalms, magnificats, and Marian antiphons - under the titles Liber primus missarum, Motecta festorum([both published 1608)and Tomus secondus, psalmorum, hymnorum... et missarum (published 1613); they reveal him to be a highly skilled craftsman. This first full-length study of his life and works presents a critical assessment of the man and his music, setting him within the social and religious context of the so-called Counter-Reformation. Beginning by outlining the facts of his life, the book goes on to offer an analysis and assessment of his output. Clive Walkley was until his retirement a lecturer in music and music education at Lancaster University.

Book Synopsis A bilingual edition of Fray Luis de León's La perfecta casada by : Luis de León
Download or read book A bilingual edition of Fray Luis de León's La perfecta casada written by Luis de León and published by Edwin Mellen Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leon (1528-91) is known today mostly as a master poet of Spain's Golden Age, but in his own day he was regarded primarily as an academic, and his poems were little regarded by him and little known by others. Here he describes and prescribes marriage in the purely Christian context of the period, and suggests how women can live out their narrowly defined roles within it. Many of his views would be patriarchal and anti-feminist in today's society. The facing pages of Spanish and English text are double spaced. No index is provided.

Book Synopsis Religious Culture in the Sixteenth Century by : John W. O'Malley
Download or read book Religious Culture in the Sixteenth Century written by John W. O'Malley and published by Variorum Publishing. This book was released on 1993 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between religion and culture is the key concern of this selection of John O'Malley's articles, as it was in his earlier one, Rome and the Renaissance: Studies in Culture and Religion. The present articles address the questions of religious controversy, Church reform, and the character of Renaissance humanism, continuing the research published previously, but developing it in two specific directions. The first is that of Renaissance preaching and rhetoric in terms both of their evolution over the period, and of the particular contributions made by such figures as Luther or Erasmus. The second topic is the early history of the Jesuits, with studies on their attitudes towards humanist culture as well as on the ideas of Ignatius Loyola himself.
Book Synopsis Text as Topos in Religious Literature of the Spanish Golden Age by : M. Louise Salstad
Download or read book Text as Topos in Religious Literature of the Spanish Golden Age written by M. Louise Salstad and published by Unc Department of Romance Studies. This book was released on 1995 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central component of this study is an index of the numerous motifs through which topoi of the text as symbol are articulated in the religious poetry, sermons, and sacramental plays of Golden Age Spain. Paired with the index is an anthology of the texts on which the book is based. In her introduction, Louise Salstad discusses the transmission and transformation of the topoi as they appear in the Old and New Testaments, classical literature, church writings, and medieval texts, and she considers the influence of the contemporary milieu on the shaping of these motifs. The book also includes an explanatory introduction to the index, biographical notes on authors, a chronology of works, a bibliography, and key word indexes of motifs in English and Spanish. The most extensive investigation of specific topoi undertaken in Spanish studies, this book will also be of interest to art historians and cultural historians whose focus is theology, the history of spirituality, or the history of the book.
