Download or read book Unrequited Conquests written by Roland Greene and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love poetry dominated European literature during the Renaissance. Its attitudes, conventions, and values appeared not only in courtly settings but also in the transatlantic world, where cultures were being built, power exercised, and policies made. In this major contribution to our understanding of both the Age of Exploration and early modern lyric, Roland Greene argues that love poetry was not simply a reflection of the times but a means of cultural transformation. European encounters with the Americas awakened many forms of desire, which pervaded the writings of explorers like Columbus and his contemporaries. These experiences in turn shaped colonial society in Brazil, Peru, and elsewhere. The New World, while it could be explored, conquered, and exploited, could never really be "known"—leaving Europe's desire continually unrequited and the project of empire unfulfilled. Using numerous poetic examples and extensive historical documentation, Unrequited Conquests rewrites the relations between the Renaissance and colonial Latin America and between poetry and history.

Download or read book Simone Weil written by Christopher J. Frost and published by Sage. This book was released on 1961 with total page 1206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before postmodern or deconstructionist ideas became current, Simone Weil was concerned with recognizing the absence of consistency and the continual presence of reversals and contradictions in life. She was someone for whom the task of clarifying her perceptions of reality and meaning was an ongoing one. She challenged contemporary views on such complex issues as human nature, good and evil, divinity and truth. Weil's work offers a voice for those segments of society that are generally under-represented, misrepresented or totally silent in conventional historical and philosophical writings. In this introduction to Simone Weil's ideas, and the political and intellectual circumstances of her work, the authors make Weil's complex and at times elusive ideas accessible to readers. They delineate how her ideas evolved, and provide compelling excerpts from her writings to let her speak for herself. In addition, the authors provide their own interpretation of Weil's work.

Book excerpt: Se trata de un diario en el que se narra momento a momento de la transformación de una mujer en apariencia superficial y vanidosa a un mundo que ella no conocía de dolor, de malos entendidos y enfermedades emocionales como la baja autoestima, y físicas como la obesidad, la codependencia, por una serie de malas elecciones y de pensamientos equivocados, autodestructivos que la llevaron a devaluarse y de someterse a pruebas de las que no estaba convencida, pero que por "amor", la denigraron al grado de permitir humillaciones, golpes, infidelidades, atropellos en su dignidad de mujer, por lo que su auto estima la condujo por odios y resentimientos hacia todos los que la rodeaban, incluyendo a ella misma. Por toda la novela no encontramos el nombre de la protagonista, por una sencilla razón, es la historia de varias mujeres que participaron en una encuesta y taller de lectura, en la que narraron sus similitudes algunas de ellas y de ellas se estructuró la novela. Al continuar con los talleres, se leyeron varios de estos capítulos a las mujeres que asistían y veían que era increíble el parecido que tenía con su propia vida, con la vida de su abuela, de su madre, de tu tía, de su vecina, es decir todos manifestaban conocer una mujer parecida a la protagonista, es por eso que si esto acomoda a algunas, pueden ponerle su nombre o el de alguna conocida y la novela quedará completa Pero ¿de qué similitudes estoy hablando? Se casaron muy jóvenes, con el guapo de la colonia quien siempre les hizo sentir que les hizo un favor, la mayoría embarazadas, bonitas, pero con una autoestima baja por una u otra razón y es ahí donde su cónyuge les encontró el punto débil y lo aprovecharon haciéndolas muy infelices, sin embargo, reconocen su responsabilidad porque lo permitieron. El final es una reflexión de lo que cualquier ser humano debería aplicar antes de entablar una relación enfermiza, pero es hasta que se toca fondo, como cualquier enfermo, para poder recuperarse, sanar y alcanzar lo que todos anhelamos, la felicidad. La protagonista tenía una felicidad falsa al inicio, y al final alcanzó una verdadera, pasando por situaciones adversas, pero aleccionadoras. Hay historias que pueden dar un giro a nuestras vidas, que nos pueden ayudar a ver lo que no hemos podido por estar enfrascados en círculos viciosos, en relaciones equivocadas, en un mundo en el que sólo nos limita nuestro propio pensamiento, pero sobre todo que nos ayuden a dejar atrás las causas de dolor y sufrimiento, esta historia rompe con la idea de que "para merecer, hay que sufrir", nos hace entender que no hay necesidad. Es una historia de dolor, pero a la vez de esperanza de un futuro mejor, siempre y cuando nuestro presente lo llenemos de respeto, responsabilidad y amor
Download or read book Nahuatl Theater written by Barry D. Sell and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-11-27 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European religious drama adapted for an Aztec audience Don Bartolomé de Alva was a mestizo who rose within New Spain’s ecclesiastical hierarchy when people of indigenous heritage were routinely excluded from the priesthood. In 1640 and 1641 he translated several theatrical pieces from Spanish into Nahuatl, yet this prodigious accomplishment remained virtually unknown for centuries. Nahuatl Theater, Volume 3 presents for the first time in English the complete dramatic works of Alva, the only known plays from Spain’s Golden Age adapted into the lively world of Nahuatl-language theater. Alva’s translations—“The Great Theater of the World,” “The Animal Prophet and the Fortunate Patricide,” “The Mother of the Best,” and a farcical intermezzo—represent ambitious attempts to add complex, Baroque dramatic pieces by such literary giants as Lope de Vega and Pedro Calderón de la Barca to the repertory of Nahuatl theater, otherwise dominated by sober one-act religious plays grounded in medieval tradition. The Spanish sources and Alva’s Nahuatl, set on facing pages with their English translations, show how Alva “Mexicanized” the plays by incorporating Nahuatl linguistic conventions and referencing local symbolism and social life. In their introductory essays, the editors offer contextual and interpretive information that provides an entrée into this rich material. As the only known adaptations of these theatrical works into a Native American language, these plays stand as fine literature in their own right.

Download or read book Luis Ger nimo de Or written by Noble David Cook and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2023-12-06 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in a provincial city in the Peruvian Andes, the Franciscan linguist and theologian Luis Gerónimo de Oré (1554–1630) lived during a critical period in the formation of the modern world, as the global empire of Spain engaged in a nearly continuous struggle over resources and religion. In the first full-length biography of Oré, Noble David Cook and Alexandra Parma Cook reconstruct the friar’s life and the communities in which he circulated, tracing the career of this first-generation Creole from his roots in Huamanga to his work in Andean missions, his activities at the royal courts of Spain and throughout Spanish America, until his final years as bishop of Concepción, Chile. While serving in Peru’s Colca Valley, Oré composed multilingual texts, translating doctrinal concepts into the indigenous languages Quechua and Aymara, alongside Latin and Spanish, which missionaries and secular clergy frequently used in their conversion efforts. As commissioner to Cuba and La Florida, he inspected the frontier missions along the coast of what became the southeastern United States and wrote an influential history of these outposts and their environment. After Philip III dispatched him to Concepción, Oré spent his last years working in the southernmost end of the Americas, where he continued his advocacy for indigenous justice and engaged in heated arguments with the governor over defensive war, royal patronage, and Indian enslavement. Drawn from research conducted in Spain and Latin America over several decades, this consequential biography recovers from obscurity a colonial friar whose legacy continues in the Andean world today.
Download or read book Words of the True Peoples Palabras de los Seres Verdaderos written by Carlos Montemayor and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the larger, ongoing movement throughout Latin America to reclaim non-Hispanic cultural heritages and identities, indigenous writers in Mexico are reappropriating the written word in their ancestral tongues and in Spanish. As a result, the long-marginalized, innermost feelings, needs, and worldviews of Mexico's ten to twenty million indigenous peoples are now being widely revealed to the Western societies with which these peoples coexist. To contribute to this process and serve as a bridge of intercultural communication and understanding, this groundbreaking, three-volume anthology gathers works by the leading generation of writers in thirteen Mexican indigenous languages: Nahuatl, Maya, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Tojolabal, Tabasco Chontal, Purepecha, Sierra Zapoteco, Isthmus Zapoteco, Mazateco, Ñahñu, Totonaco, and Huichol. Volume 1 contains narratives and essays by Mexican indigenous writers. Their texts appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Frischmann and Montemayor have abundantly annotated the English, Spanish, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that trace the development of indigenous texts, literacy, and writing. These supporting materials make the anthology especially accessible and interesting for nonspecialist readers seeking a greater understanding of Mexico's indigenous peoples. The other volumes of this work will be Volume 2: Poetry/Poesía and Volume 3: Theater/Teatro.
