Download or read book Modern Spanish Women as Agents of Change written by Jennifer Smith and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-14 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together cutting-edge research on modern Spanish women as writers, activists, and embodiments of cultural change, and simultaneously honors Maryellen Bieder’s invaluable scholarly contribution to the field. The essays are innovative in their consideration of lesser-known women writers, focus on women as political activists, and use of post-colonialism, queer theory, and spatial theory to examine the period from the Enlightenment until World War II. The contributors study women as agents and representations of social change in a variety of genres, including short stories, novels, plays, personal letters, and journalistic pieces. Canonical authors such as Emilia Pardo Bazán, Leopoldo Alas “Clarín,” and Carmen de Burgos are considered alongside lesser known writers and activists such as María Rosa Gálvez, Sofía Tartilán, and Caterina Albert i Paradís. The critical analyses are situated within their specific socio-historical context, and shed new light on nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Spanish literature, history, and culture. Published by Bucknell University Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press.

Download or read book Multiple Modernities written by Michelle Sharp and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays confirms Carmen de Burgos’s pivotal place in Spanish feminist history by bringing together eminent international scholars who offer new readings of Burgos’s work. It includes the analyses of a number of lesser-known texts, both fictional and non-fictional, which give us a more comprehensive examination of Burgos’s multipronge feminist approach. Burgos’s works, especially her essays, are essential feminist reading and complement other European and North American traditions. Gaining familiarity with the breadth and depth of her work serves not only to provide an understanding of Spanish firstwave feminism, but also enriches our appreciation of cultural studies, gender studies, subaltern studies and travel literature. Looking at the entirety of her life and work, and the wide-ranging contributions in this volume, it is evident that Burgos embodied the tensions between tradition and modernity, depicting multiple representations of womanhood. Encouraging women to take ownership of their personal fashion, the design of their homes and the decorum of their families were steps towards recognizing a female population that was cognizant of its own desires.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postgrowth Imaginaries brings together environmental cultural studies and postgrowth economics to examine radical cultural shifts sparked by the global financial crisis. The globalization of an economic culture addicted to constant growth destroys the ecological planetary systems while failing to fulfil its social promises. A transition toward what Prádanos calls ‘postgrowth imaginaries’—the counterhegemonic cultural sensibilities that are challenging the growth paradigm—is well underway in the Iberian Peninsula today.

Download or read book The Dystopian Imagination in Contemporary Spanish Literature and Film written by Diana Q. Palardy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines contemporary Spanish dystopian literature and films (in)directly related to the 2008 financial crisis from an urban cultural studies perspective. It explores culturally-charged landscapes that effectively convey the zeitgeist and reveal deep-rooted anxieties about issues such as globalization, consumerism, immigration, speculation, precarity, and political resistance (particularly by Indignados [Indignant Ones] from the 15-M Movement). The book loosely traces the trajectory of the crisis, with the first part looking at texts that underscore some of the behaviors that indirectly contributed to the crisis, and the remaining chapters focusing on works that directly examine the crisis and its aftermath. This close reading of texts and films by Ray Loriga, Elia Barceló, Ion de Sosa, José Ardillo, David Llorente, Eduardo Vaquerizo, and Ricardo Menéndez Salmón offers insights into the creative ways that these authors and directors use spatial constructions to capture the dystopian imagination.

Download or read book José Moya Del Pino written by Paola Coda-Nunziante and published by Paola Coda Nunziante. This book was released on 2021-09-26 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fully illustrated in-depth look at the fascinating life of a Spanish artist, sent on a cultural mission by the king of Spain then abandoned by his homeland, who reinvented himself in the US as a muralist, painter and teacher. José Moya del Pino's life was divided into two completely separate halves; the first one took place in Spain between 1890 and 1925; the second began in 1925 with his trip, without return, to America. This book includes many figures, photographs, illustrations, and details never published before about the life and works of this almost-forgotten artist. Moya del Pino's life was never dull. After running away from home at age 11, he received acclaim as a book illustrator in Spain and France, then convinced king Alfonso XIII to send him around the world on a cultural mission for the crown, copying all of the works of Velázquez in the Prado Museum of Madrid to bring them to the new world and promote the great art and culture of his home country. Stranded in California when the king's support faltered as Spain was on the brink of a civil war, he made inroads into the high society of San Francisco to become a sought-out portraitist and muralist. His mural in Coit Tower and many of those painted under the tutelage of the WPA under the New Deal are still viewable in post offices throughout California; for some, such as those covering entire buildings for the Golden Gate International Exposition of 1939, only sketches remain. The artist enjoyed friendships with Diego Rivera, Matisse and other prominent artists, and always lived his life fully and with exuberance. Those who knew the first part of Moya del Pino's life almost completely ignored what happened in the second, to the point that most biographical notes published in Spain end in 1925, as if the painter had disappeared from the universe without a trace. On the other hand, those who shared the second stage of his life, in the San Francisco Bay Area, only knew of his work in Spain that he copied the works of Velázquez and made portraits of Alfonso XIII and the Duke of Alba. This book aims to put an end to these incomplete perspectives, uniting into one biography the artist's two lives.
