Book Synopsis Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian Detective Fiction by : Renée W. Craig-Odders
Download or read book Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian Detective Fiction written by Renée W. Craig-Odders and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2006-03-20 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The image of the hard-boiled private investigator from gritty pulp fiction, a terse and mysterious figure, has become increasingly universal as the detective novel crosses more and more borders. A booming genre in Latin America, Spain and other Hispanic cultures, detective fiction has transcended the limitations of its influences. Hispanic authors relatively new to the genre have published novels and series popular with the public, while a number of well-known writers have adapted the genre to reflect the concurrent globalization of modern society and the crimes within it. This volume presents a compilation of 11 critical essays on genero negro--contemporary detective fiction in the Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian canon. Surveying the last twenty years, the text analyzes emerging trends in this rapidly evolving genre, as well as the mutations and innovations taking place within the style. The first section of the book is dedicated to the detective fiction of Spain and Portugal. The second section surveys works from Latin America and the United States, where topics touch on universal subjects like crime, identity and feminism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there are several annotated bibliographies of contemporary Spanish novelists, this book covers critical works published on the post civil war Spanish novel as a literary form. The volume cites books and articles, and each citation is accompanied by a descriptive and evaluative annotation. The work contains a section of entries on books and another on articles. Entries within each section are arranged alphabetically. Included are entries primarily for studies published in English or Spanish, though some in Catalan, French, Galician, and Italian are also cited. In the last decades, there has been an explosion of critical works on the post civil war Spanish novel. This proliferation of material causes serious problems for scholars conducting research on the subject. While there are bibliographies of particular novelists, this book deals with general studies of trends, topics, and comparative approaches. The volume primarily cites works published in English or Spanish, but it also includes some in Catalan, French, Galician, and Italian. The volume is divided into two sections—books and articles. Within each section, entries are arranged alphabetically. Each citation is accompanied by a descriptive and evaluative annotation. The annotations provide information about the topic, content, and methodology of the works cited and express an opinion of the works' value.

Book Synopsis Spanish Women Authors of Serial Crime Fiction by : Inmaculada Pertusa-Seva
Download or read book Spanish Women Authors of Serial Crime Fiction written by Inmaculada Pertusa-Seva and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-23 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its focus on recent detective series featuring female investigators, this collection analyzes the authors’ treatment of current social, political and economic problems in Spain and beyond, in addition to exploring interrelations between gender, globalization, the environment and technology. The contributions here reveal the varied ways in which the use of a series allows for a deeper consideration of such issues, in addition to permitting the more extensive development of the protagonist investigator and her reactions to, and methods of, dealing with personal and professional challenges of the twenty-first century. In these stories, the authors employ strategies that break with long-standing conventions, developing crime fiction in unexpected ways, incorporating elements of science fiction, the supernatural, and the historical novel, as well as varied geographical settings (small towns, provincial cities, and rural communities) beyond the urban environment, all of which contributes to the reinvigoration of the genre.

Book excerpt: NOVELA NEGRA ESPAÑOLA FINALISTA DEL PREMIO HACHE 2011 Inicio de "Largas noches de lluvia":"Hay quien afirma que toda gran verdad nos es revelada con dolor. Puede que esto sea cierto y puede que no; lo único que yo puedo decir al respecto es que al menos en mi caso no sucedió así. Si alguna vez la Verdad me fue revelada, ocurrió una mañana mientras tendía la colada en el balcón de mi casa y, en aquel momento, no fue doloroso en absoluto, sino sorprendente y reconfortante, como encontrarse con un viejo amigo en una ciudad extraña". Una novela negra en la España rural de los 60 Todos los pueblos guardan secretos. Atesorados durante generaciones, crecen como el musgo en los rincones sombríos: en los sótanos húmedos de las casas, en las habitaciones cerradas, o en los silencios incómodos. Secretos a veces banales y en ocasiones horribles, pero siempre presentes en una comunidad pequeña donde todo se sabe, pero nadie sabe nada.En 1961, tras más de veinte años en paradero desconocido, Rogelio Villanueva regresa a su pueblo para hacerse cargo del negocio familiar. En 1967, su cadáver aparece desangrado en la bañera. En el lavabo, una nota con una críptica inscripción; y bajo su barbilla, dos extrañas marcas amoratadas.Muy pronto, lo que parecía ser un suicidio se revela como un asesinato, dando pie a una investigación que desembocará en una conclusión inesperada. "Largas noches de lluvia" es la historia de un crimen que no es sino la culminación de una cadena de crímenes pasados; es una historia sobre cómo se cocinan los secretos más horribles en los pueblos, a fuego lento; pero, sobre todo, es una historia acerca del amor de un padre hacia su hija, y de los extremos a los que ese amor le puede llevar. Reseñas de "Largas noches de lluvia" "Exquisito en su sabia mezcla de costumbrismo y novela negra española" (José María Tamparillas - Autor) "Marc R.

Book Synopsis Iberian Crime Fiction by : Nancy Vosburg
Download or read book Iberian Crime Fiction written by Nancy Vosburg and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iberian Crime Fiction is the first volume in English to provide an extensive overview of crime fiction in Spain and Portugal. While the origins of peninsular crime fiction are traced in Nancy Vosburg's introductory chapter to the volume, the essays focus on specific topics that provide readers with a sense of the development of the genre in the second half of the 20th-century and current trends in the 21st-century. Patty Hart, whose The Spanish Sleuth introduced English-speaking readers to early crime fiction in Spain, provides a summary account of the development of the crime novel from the 1950s through the 1980s, highlighting the major authors and works that set the stage for the boom that followed the establishment of the novela negra tradition in the 1970s. This tradition, spearheaded by Manuel Vazquez Montalban, is the subject of a separate essay by Maria Balibrea that analyzes the socio-political conditions that gave rise to the novela negra. NancyVosburg studies the emergence of a feminine/feminist crime novel in the 1980s and 1990s and the subversion of masculine codes associated with crime fiction, while Stewart King analyzes crime fiction from the Catalan, Basque, and Galician autonomous regions of Spain, focusing on the political realities that resulted in a different use of the genre as a vehicle of regional nationalism. David Knutson traces contemporary trends in Spanish crime fiction, beginning in the 1990s and up to the present. Paul Castro's essay documents the emergence of crime fiction in Portugal and the major works/authors through to the present.

Download or read book Investigating Identities written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investigating Identities: Questions of Identity in Contemporary International Crime Fiction is one of the relatively few books to date which adopts a comparative approach to the study of the genre. This collection of twenty essays by international scholars, examining crime fiction production from over a dozen countries, confirms that a comparative approach can both shed light on processes of adaptation and appropriation of the genre within specific national, regional or local contexts, and also uncover similarities between the works of authors from very different areas. Contributors explore discourse concerning national and historical memory, language, race, ethnicity, culture and gender, and examine how identity is affirmed and challenged in the crime genre today. They reveal a growing tendency towards hybridization and postmodern experimentation, and increasing engagement with philosophical enquiry into the epistemological dimensions of investigation. Throughout, the notion of stable identities is subject to scrutiny. While each essay in itself is a valuable addition to existing criticism on the genre, all the chapters mutually inform and complement each other in fascinating and often unexpected ways. This volume makes an important contribution to the growing field of crime fiction studies and to ongoing debates on questions of identity. It will therefore be of special interest to students and scholars of the crime genre, identity studies and comparative literature. It will also appeal to all who enjoy reading contemporary crime fiction.

Book Synopsis Policing Gender and Alicia Giménez Bartlett's Crime Fiction by : Nina L. Molinaro
Download or read book Policing Gender and Alicia Giménez Bartlett's Crime Fiction written by Nina L. Molinaro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alicia Giménez Bartlett’s popular crime series, written in Spanish and organized around the exploits of Police Inspector Petra Delicado and Deputy Inspector Fermin Garzon, is arguably the most successful detective series published in Spain during the previous three decades. Nina L. Molinaro examines the tensions between the rhetoric of gender differences espoused by the woman detective and the orthodox ideology of the police procedural. She argues that even as the series incorporates gender differences into the crime series formula, it does so in order to correct women, naturalize men’s authority, sanction social hierarchies, and assuage collective anxieties. As Molinaro shows, with the exception of the protagonist, the women characters require constant surveillance and modification, often as a result of men’s supposedly intrinsic protectiveness or excessive sexuality. Men, by contrast, circulate more freely in the fictional world and are intrinsic to the political, psychological, and economic prosperity of their communities. Molinaro situates her discussion in Petra Delicado’s contemporary Spain of dog owners, ¡Hola!, Russian cults, and gated communities.
Book Synopsis Reyes Calderón's Lola MacHor Series by : Jeffrey Oxford
Download or read book Reyes Calderón's Lola MacHor Series written by Jeffrey Oxford and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of the fact that detective fiction has been the most popular genre utilised by Spanish authors over the last thirty or so years, the female detective has appeared in such works on relatively rare occasions. Less frequent are Spanish female authors of detective fiction who employ a female detective as their main character. One author who has broken this stereotype is Reyes Calderón, with her female juez de instrucción (examining magistrate), originally created because the author was convinced that one popular, female, main character detective that did exist was simply "a man who was wearing a skirt" (interview with author). With the creation of her Basque character who, over the series, evolves from law-school professor to member of the Spanish Supreme Court, Calderón is able to "design a normal woman who confronts abnormal situations" (interview with author). Through such, Reyes Calderón aptly portrays both how far Spanish women have come since the days/restrictions of the Franco dictatorship but yet how remnants of conservative thought still pervade their mindset. She thus uses the most popular of genres to make a myriad of cultural observations concerning her native country and the women of "her generation". This book focuses on the female detective in Hispanic literature; the Lola MacHor Series, where via the main character Lola, Calderón is conducting a cultural studies experiment/explanation of modern-day Spain; concomitant issues of characterisation and Calderón's debt to Naturalism; Spanish novel writing and narrative style; and the pervading conservative/feminist dichotomy as it transpires in Spanish social commentary and moralising.
