Download or read book La Barraca written by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This passionate and moving story of social injustice, violence and revenge, set in the Valencian huerta, has become the classic text of Spanish regional realism. Blasco Ibanez, the 'Spanish Zola', dramatically confronts one of the great social issues of the late nineteenth century, the possession of land, in a vivid recreation of the local types and traditional customs of a closed rural community which jealousy guards its rights and administers its own rough justice against the outsider. The novel is both a lyrical hymn to nature and an expose of man's inhumanity to man, narrated with a human compassion worthy of his master, Galdos. Spanish text with facing-page translation, introduction and notes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores the possibilities and limits of a concept of realism that seeks a point of equilibrium between the principle of autonomy of the literary work vis-a-vis reality and the relations that the work clearly establishes with this reality. Argues that by concentrating on the study of the literary work as a verbal construction, the traditional of formalism and New Criticism has neglected the mimetic aspect of the literary problematic, dissociating literature from life.

Download or read book The Shadow of the Cathedral written by Vicente Blasco Ibanez and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-06-06 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are three cathedrals which I think will remain chief of the Spanish cathedrals in the remembrance of the traveller, namely the Cathedral at Burgos, the Cathedral at Toledo, and the Cathedral at Seville; and first of these for reasons hitherto of history and art, and now of fiction, will be the Cathedral at Toledo, which the most commanding talent among the contemporary Spanish novelists has made the protagonist of the romance following. I do not mean that Vincent Blasco Ibañez is greater than Perez Galdós, or Armando Palacio Valdés or even the Countess Pardo-Bazan; but he belongs to their realistic order of imagination, and he is easily the first of living European novelists outside of Spain, with the advantage of superior youth, freshness of invention and force of characterization. The Russians have ceased to be actively the masters, and there is no Frenchman, Englishman, or Scandinavian who counts with Ibañez, and of course no Italian, American, and, unspeakably, no German.

Download or read book The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse written by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez and published by Jota Press. This book was released on 2023-05-21 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The epic tale of an Argentine landowner’s family fighting on opposite sides during World War I became a worldwide best-selling novel when first published in 1916. Fanatical nationalism tragically triumphs over common sense and family ties, causing horrific destruction and death in a war the likes of which the world had never seen. More than a story about long-ago events, this historical novel is a piercing meditation on modern warfare and a profound warning about the dangers of isolationist nationalism. This first new translation in decades offers a fresh look at a disastrous global tragedy that is eerily relevant to current events in the 21st century. The 1921 American silent film had a huge cultural impact and became the year’s top-grossing film. It turned actor Rudolph Valentino into a superstar and inspired a tango craze and gaucho pants fashion fad.

Download or read book Literary Translation and Cultural Mediators in 'Peripheral' Cultures written by Diana Roig-Sanz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets the grounds for a new approach exploring cultural mediators as key figures in literary and cultural history. It proposes an innovative conceptual and methodological understanding of the figure of the cultural mediator, defined as a cultural actor active across linguistic, cultural and geographical borders, occupying strategic positions within large networks and being the carrier of cultural transfer. Many studies on translation and cultural mediation privileged the major metropolis of Paris, London, and New York as centres of cultural production and translation. However, other cities and megacities that are not global centres of culture also feature vibrant translation scenes. This book abandons the focus on ‘innovative’ centres and ‘imitative’ peripheries and follows processes of cultural exchange as they develop. Thus, it analyses the role of cultural mediators as customs officers or smugglers (or both in different proportions) in so-called ‘peripheral’ cultures and offers insights into an under-analysed body of actors and institutions promoting intercultural transfer in often multilingual and less studied venues such as Trieste, Tel Aviv, Buenos Aires, Lima, Lahore, or Cape Town.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this novel "Woman Triumphant" captures the novel's spirit. The woman in this case is the protagonist's wife. The wife triumphs, resurrected in spirit to exert a powerful influence over the life of a man who had wished to live without her. Excerpt: "Renovales, the hero, is simply the personification of human desire, this poor desire which, in reality, does not know what it wants, eternally fickle and unsatisfied. When we finally obtain what we desire, it does not seem enough. "More: I want more," we say. If we lose something that made life unbearable, we immediately wish it back as indispensable to our happiness. Such are we: poor deluded children who cried yesterday for what we scorn today and shall want again tomorrow; poor deluded beings plunging across the span of life on the Icarian wings of caprice."

Download or read book Novelty and Artistry in Blasco Ibanez's Los Argonautas (1914) written by Christopher Lyle Anderson and published by Juan de La Cuesta-Hispanic Monographs. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of Blasco Ibanez's lengthiest acknowledged work demonstrates that it is a key text in the trajectory of his novels and in his evolution as a writer, one that marks significant differences both with those texts which precede it and those which follow, beginning with Los cuatro jinetes del Apocalipsis (1916). These differences are found in the novel's themes, style, narrative technique, structure, and even in the makeup of its main characters. Blasco is presented as a highly proficient weaver of tales who modifies his narrative technique to fit the needs of each chapter's content and context. His novel stresses the importance of music and other sounds, and it highlights the use of mystery/suspense and juxtaposition as important aspects of his technique. Structurally, Los argonautas is found to be an open-ended novel which looks towards the future and has neither a rousing climax nor a traditional conclusion, a text whose openness to the unexpected encourages the very late appearance of characters, which contributes to its realistic slice-of-life feel. Los argonautas exhibits an increased interest on Blasco's part in such abstract issues as the relationship of life/history with art/literature. And its main characters are not Blasco's prototypical assertive fighters participating in the struggle for life and/or ideals. In terms of narrative technique (dual narration, where events in the present evoke those of the past), the makeup of central characters (laconic, hedonistic, and passive by nature), and style (where the predominant esthetic is Impressionism), Los argonautas is viewed as Blasco's first attempt at writing an evocative notel of Impressionist ilk. In sum, the books' chapters illustrate how Blasco evolves as a thinker and as an artist in Los argonautas, and while each reaches its own conclusions, together they demonstrate that this novel merits further study. Dr. Christopher L. Anderson is a Professor of Spanish and Comparative Literature at the University of Tulsa, where he teaches courses in the Spanish Novel of the 19th, 20th, and 21st Centuries and the Spanish Cinema. He is co-editor of the Valencia-based journal, Revista de Estudios sobre Blasco Ibanez / Journal of Blasco Ibanez Studies. This is his second book with Juan de la Cuesta Hispanic Monographs."
