Book excerpt: Contrariamente a lo que se suele exponer sobre la literatura en castellano, la Edad Media, el Renacimiento y el Barroco dieron a luz una serie importante de textos en defensa de la mujer. Este libro pretende historiografiar los textos de una tradición en la literatura hispánica que constituyen eslabones de la misma cadena: la defensa de la mujer como concepto intelectual y literario. Partimos en este estudio de textos medievales, sobre todo de la primera mitad del siglo XV, y acabamos con documentos del siglo XVII que anteceden directamente las vindicaciones del siglo xviii que se convertirán en la base del pensamiento ilustrado con respecto a la temática genérica y sexual.

Download or read book Gender and Exemplarity in Medieval and Early Modern Spain written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-09-07 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender and Exemplarity in Medieval and Early Modern Spain gathers a series of studies on the interplay between gender, sanctity and exemplarity in regard to literary production in the Iberian peninsula. The first section examines how women were con¬strued as saintly examples through narratives, mostly composed by male writers; the second focuses on the use made of exemplary life-accounts by women writers in order to fashion their own social identity and their role as authors. The volume includes studies on relevant models (Mary Magdalen, Virgin Mary, living saints), means of transmission, sponsorship and agency (reading circles, print, patronage), and female writers (Leonor López de Córdoba, Isabel de Villena, Teresa of Ávila) involved in creating textual exemplars for women. Contributors are: Pablo Acosta-García, Andrew M. Beresford, Jimena Gamba Corradine, Ryan D. Giles, María Morrás, Lesley K. Twomey, Roa Vidal Doval, and Christopher van Ginhoven Rey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gastronomical Arts in Spain includes essays that span from the medieval to the contemporary world, providing a taste of the many ways in which the art of gastronomy developed in Spain over time. This collection encompasses a series of cultural objects and a number of interests, ranging from medicine to science, from meals to banquets, and from specific recipes to cookbooks. The contributors consider Spanish cuisine as presented in a variety of texts, including literature, medical and dietary prescriptions, historical documents, cookbooks, and periodicals. They draw on literary texts in their socio-historical context in order to explore concerns related to the production and consumption of food for reasons of hunger, sustenance, health, and even gluttony. Structured into three distinct "courses" that focus on the history of foodstuffs, food etiquette, and culinary fashion, The Gastronomical Arts in Spain brings together the many sights and sounds of the Spanish kitchen throughout the centuries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that the problem of gender identity is vital to the large corpus of medieval Hispanic texts that discuss the nature of women. What is a woman? This book questions the persistent assumption that the large corpus of medieval Hispanic texts that discuss the nature of women can be defined in terms of the clichéd discourses of misogynism and defence of women, arguing instead that the problem of gender identity is vital to them all. The texts, some well-known, others which have received scant critical attention, are each discussed in their specific contexts and in relation to theostensible reasons for their composition, such as a political, literary, religious, or didactic 'agenda'. They are also related to the literary traditions in which they are written [misogynistic denunciation, satire, humour, defence, narrative debate, among others], and the particular theoretical problems arising from them are discussed. But it is also argued that the full meaning of the texts lies at the less immediately accessible level at which they address this very problem of definition, one which arises directly from the self-perpetuating contradictions of authoritative wisdom on the nature of women. ROBERT ARCHER holds the Cervantes Chair of Spanish, King's College London.

This book was released on 2019-03-14 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science on Stage in Early Modern Spain features essays by leading scholars in the fields of literary studies and the history of science, exploring the relationship between technical innovations and theatrical events that incorporated scientific content into dramatic productions. Focusing on Spanish dramas between 1500 and 1700, through the birth and development of its playhouses and coliseums and the phenomenal success of its major writers, this collection addresses a unique phenomenon through the most popular, versatile, and generous medium of the time. The contributors tackle subjects and disciplines as diverse as alchemy, optics, astronomy, acoustics, geometry, mechanics, and mathematics to reveal how theatre could be used to deploy scientific knowledge. While Science on Stage contributes to cultural and performance studies it also engages with issues of censorship, the effect of the Spanish Inquisition on the circulation of ideas, and the influence of the Eastern traditions in Spain.

Download or read book 'The Dream' of Bernat Metge / Del Somni d'en Bernat Metge written by Bernat Metge and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2013-05-03 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lo Somni (The Dream) is a dream allegory divided into four chapters or books. It was written ca. 1399 and is considered Bernat Metge’s best work. It is extremely innovative within the context of Catalan (and Iberian Peninsular) literature of the 1300’s. It consists of a dialogue between Metge-the-character and several participants (in fact the book is a dialogue between Metge and the Classical and Biblical tradition) on the topics of the immortality of the soul, the essence of religion and the dignity and moral essence of the human being. In addition to using many Classical and medieval literary sources, Lo Somni can be considered one of the first (if not the first) Humanist books to be ever written in the Iberian Peninsula. Metge wrote Lo Somni supposedly while in prison (house arrest?) following a dubious accusation about his involvement in the death of King Joan I. Metge wrote this work as a personal defense to exonerate himself and as an attempt to gain the confidence of the new King Martí l’Humà and his wife Queen María de Luna. Lo Somni ends when Metge-the-character is awaken from his dream. This foundational work also touches upon political themes pertaining to the Crown of Aragon, literary fashion and reception of Italian humanist works at the court, as well as on matters of fashion, cultural customs, taste and style.

Download or read book Leading Ladies written by Yvonne Fuentes and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2006-03-01 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by Hispanic and non-Hispanic scholars, these twelve essays -- six in English and six in Spanish -- disclose how over the past four centuries static and formulaic images of women in Hispanic art and literature have given way to lively and original portrayals. The leading ladies explored in this volume include women who are objects of the male gaze, women who gaze upon the male body, women who are characters, and women who are writers, painters, and filmmakers. The essayists offer a panorama that stimulates the senses and challenges assumptions as they reveal strategies used by both male and female writers and artists to unmask conventions, identify spaces, and remake paradigms.Marina Mayoral's introduction traces the representation of the beloved woman in Spanish lyric poetry from the Middle Ages to the present. The contributors and topics that follow include Amy Robinson on the silencing of female voices such as those of Cecilia Valdés and Carmen; Vilma Navarro-Daniels on the writer and historian Carmen Martín Gaite; Lynn Walford's analysis of Mario Vargas Llosa's leading ladies; Katherine Ford's exploration of Chicana writer Gloria Anzaldúa's Borderlands/La Frontera; Julia Carroll on Puerto Rican writer Giannina Braschi; George Thomas on the poetry of the seventeenth-century Mexican poet Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz; Alison Tatum-Davis on Carmen Laforet's Nada; Mónica Jato's examination of three female characters from Alfonso Sastre's trilogy Los crímenes extraños; Caryn Connelly on the collaborations of Mexican scriptwriter Paz Alicia Garcíadiego and film director Arturo Ripstein; Sharon Keefe Ugalde on cinema gender referents in the work of certain Spanish women poets; Carmen García de la Rasilla's study of female surrealist artists; and Mayte de Lama on three short-story characters of the fiction writer Marina Mayoral.Covering numerous genres, reaching across three continents, and using a variety of critical strategies, Leading Ladies presents a dazzling array of artistic endeavors in which women are of central importance.

Book excerpt: "¿Que es la mujer? Quizá en ningún memento de la historia de España (antes del siglo XX) ha habido tanta actividad literaria como en la baja Edad Media en torno a lo que Rodríquez del Padrón llamó 'la cuestión odiosa' de cuánto vale en todos los sentidos la mujer en comparación con el hombre. Este tema hoy en dia sigue latente y de pleno interés. El libro es un intento de darle al conjunto de los escritos estudiados la trascendencia que tuvieron y que merecen. El libro abarca ejemplos de literatura sapiencial: obras que ofrecen consejo a las mujeres en tanto que esposas; 'enxemplos' o historias ilustradas procedentes de fuentes orientales y latinas: 'debates' literarios sobre las mujeres; novelas sentimentales; obras que manifiestan un interés específico en ensalzar a las mujeres virtuosas o en 'defenderlas' de las acusaciones de los calumniadores; obras más dificiles de clasificar, como el 'Arcipreste de Talavera' de Martinez de Toledo (uno de los pocos textos canónicos del corpus estudiado), el 'Spill' de Jaume Roig o la 'Repetiçión de amores' de Luis de Lucena; y el conocido 'Maldezir de mugeres' de Pere Torroella (Pedro Torrellas) junto a los diversos textos posteriores en verso y en prosa que inspiró. En cuanto a la cronologia, los textos más antiguos son de mediados del siglo XII, mientras que el último, la traducción que hizo Juan Justiniano de 'De Institutione Feminae Christianae' de Juan Luis Vives, data de 1528. La mayoría son del siglo XV, época en que la cuestión de la mujer se desarrolló con una energía insôlita en la historia de la literatura hispánica"--Publisher's description, back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En esta obra se reúnen ocho estudios que recorren la historia de la literatura española desde la Edad Media hasta la actualidad, mostrando que una parte importante de nuestro pasado, la que representa a la mitad femenina de la población, debe tener cabida en los manuales, porque también tiene historia. A la crítica sobre el pasado, este libro suma la reflexión de dos escritoras presentes: Rosa Regás y Belén Gopegui. Ambas ponen el contrapunto de la conciencia creadora femenina en una actualidad.
