Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The poetic movement that was Spanish American modernismo ran from the early 1880s to 1916: it expressed the desire both to join universal literature - aesthetic modernity - and to break colonial ties with Spanish belles lettres.

This volume in the MLA series Texts and Translations is designed to provide the student of Spanish American literature with work not easily accessible in Spanish and English and to introduce modernismo, an often misunderstood movement, to a wider audience."--BOOK JACKET.

Book A Companion to Spanish American Modernismo

Download or read book A Companion to Spanish American Modernismo written by Aníbal González and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2007 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modernismo, a literary movement of fundamental importance to Spanish America and Spain, occurred at the turn of the nineteenth century, roughly from the 1880s to the 1920s. It is widely regarded as the first Spanish-language literary movement that originated in the New World and that became influential in the "Mother Country," Spain. Characterized by the appropriation of French Symbolist aesthetics into Spanish-language literature, modernismo's other significant traits were its cultural cosmopolitanism, its philological concern with language, literary history, and literary technique, and its journalistic penchant for novelty and fashion. Despite the splendor of modernista poetry, modernismo is now understood as a broad movement whose impact was felt just as strongly in the prose genres: the short story, the novel, the essay, and the journalistic cr©đnica [chronicle]. Conceived as an introduction to modernismo as well as an account of the current state of the art of modernismo studies, this book examines the movement's contribution to the various Spanish American literary genres, its main authors [from Mart©Ư and N©Łjera to Dar©Ưo and Rod©đ], its social and historical context, and its continuing relevance to the work of contemporary Spanish American authors such as Gabriel Garc©Ưa M©Łrquez, Sergio Ram©Ưrez, aargas Llosa. AN©‍BAL GONZ©ĩLEZ-P©œREZ is Professor of Modern Latin American Literature at Yale University.

Book Modernismo  Modernity and the Development of Spanish American Literature

Download or read book Modernismo Modernity and the Development of Spanish American Literature written by Cathy L. Jrade and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A CHOICE Outstanding Academic Book Modernismo arose in Spanish American literature as a confrontation with and a response to modernizing forces that were transforming Spanish American society in the later nineteenth century. In this book, Cathy L. Jrade undertakes a full exploration of the modernista project and shows how it provided a foundation for trends and movements that have continued to shape literary production in Spanish America throughout the twentieth century. Jrade opens with a systematic consideration of the development of modernismo and then proceeds with detailed analyses of works-poetry, narrative, and essays-that typified and altered the movement's course. In this way, she situates the writing of key authors, such as Rubén Darío, José Martí, and Leopoldo Lugones, within the overall modernista project and traces modernismo's influence on subsequent generations of writers. Jrade's analysis reclaims the power of the visionary stance taken by these creative intellectuals. She firmly abolishes any lingering tendency to associate modernismo with affectation and effete elegance, revealing instead how the modernistas' new literary language expressed their profound political and epistemological concerns.

Book The Spanish American Cr  nica Modernista  Temporality  and Material Culture

Download or read book The Spanish American Cr nica Modernista Temporality and Material Culture written by Andrew R. Reynolds and published by Bucknell Studies in Latin American Literature and Theory. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores how Spanish American modernista writers incorporated journalistic formalities and industry models through the cr nica genre to advance their literary preoccupations. Through a variety of modernista writers, including Jos Mart , Amado Nervo, Manuel Guti rrez N jera and Rub n Dar o, Reynolds argues that extra-textual elements--such as temporality, the material formats of the newspaper and book, and editorial influence--animate the modernista movement's literary ambitions and aesthetic ideology. Thus, instead of being stripped of an esteemed place in the literary sphere due to participation in the market-based newspaper industry, journalism actually brought modernismo closer to the writers' desired artistic autonomy. Reynolds uncovers an original philosophical and sociological dimension of the literary forms that govern modernista studies, situating literary journalism of the movement within historical, economic and temporal contexts. Furthermore, he demonstrates that journalism of the movement was eventually consecrated in book form, revealing modernista intentionality for their mass-produced, seemingly utilitarian journalistic articles. The Spanish American Cr nica Modernista, Temporality, and Material Culture thereby enables a better understanding of how the material textuality of the cr nica impacts its interpretation and readership.
