Book Nuevos Esp  ritus contempor  neos

Download or read book Nuevos Esp ritus contempor neos written by Antonio Sáez Delgado and published by Editorial Renacimiento. This book was released on 2012-10-22 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuevos espíritus contemporáneos continúa el trabajo de investigación trazado en Espíritus contemporáneos. Relaciones literarias luso-españolas entre el Modernismo y la Vanguardia (Renacimiento, 2008), que es, a su vez, heredero directo de otros libros de Antonio Sáez Delgado publicados con anterioridad en España y Portugal. Todos ellos pretenden reconstruir el mapa de las relaciones literarias entre los dos países ibéricos en el tiempo comprendido entre 1890, con la llegada del Simbolismo a Portugal, y 1936, año en que estalla la guerra civil española, con la firme convicción de que es posible leer ese tiempo apasionante como el continuum múltiple y heterogéneo de la modernidad en la Península. Por los ocho textos que constituyen este volumen desfilan los nombres de Fernando Pessoa, Teixeira de Pascoaes o Eugénio de Castro junto a los de César González-Ruano, Enrique Díez-Canedo o Mauricio Bacarisse. Modernos y antimodernos se dan la mano entre sus líneas, y conforman ese magma plural y poliforme construido, en paralelo, por los defensores y detractores del Modernismo y la Vanguardia, entendiendo la Península como un polisistema plural de flujos y reflujos estéticos. Antonio Sáez Delgado es profesor de Literatura Española y de Literaturas Ibéricas en la Universidad de Évora (Portugal). Ha dedicado varias monografías a las relaciones entre las literaturas española y portuguesa de principios del siglo XX: Órficos y ultraístas. Portugal y España en el diálogo de las primeras vanguardias literarias (1915-1925) (2000), Adriano del Valle y Fernando Pessoa: apuntes de una amistad (2002), Corredores de fondo. Literatura en la Península Ibérica a principios del siglo XX (2003), Espíritus contemporáneos. Relaciones literarias luso-españolas entre el Modernismo y la Vanguardia (2008) y Fernando Pessoa e Espanha (2011). Colaborador habitual de Babelia, suplemento de cultura del diario El País, es traductor de autores portugueses como António Lobo Antunes, Almeida Faria, Manuel António Pina, Fialho de Almeida o Teixeira de Pascoaes, y fue reconocido en 2008 con el premio de traducción Giovanni Pontiero. Es director de Suroeste. Revista de literaturas ibéricas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish contemporary poetry: An anthology presents a selection of Spanish peninsular poetry from the 1970s to the present day, with an introductory study of the most relevant poetic trends and poetic groups of the period, followed by guided and close readings of each poem. The anthology includes poems by twenty-two authors selected according to their literary rigour and with attention to the relevance of their work, a comprehensive introductory study, notes, thorough individual commentaries to the poems, and lists of selected vocabulary and rhetorical terms that provide accessibility to the anthology. The poetic selection is divided into sections and subsections in order to aid its pedagogical intent, covering: the poetry written during the transition to democracy; the emergence of poetry written by women in the 1980s; the Spanish poetic field of the 1990s; the poetry written at the turn of the new millennium; and some of the youngest voices in Spanish poetry today. English-speaking students working in the field of Hispanic literature, but also a more general reader keen on literature written in Spanish language, should thoroughly enjoy this work.

Book excerpt: How do we address the idea of the literary now at the end of the second decade in the 21st century? Many traditional categories obscure or overlook significant contemporary forms of cultural production. This volume looks at literature and culture in general in this hinge period. Latin American Literature in Transition 1980-2018 examines the ways literary culture complicates national or area studies understandings of cultural production. Topics point to fresh, intersectional understandings of cultural practice, while keeping in mind the ongoing stakes in a struggle over material and intangible cultural and political borders that are being reinforced in formidable ways.

Book Andean Journeys  a Bilingual Anthology of Contemporary Bolivian Poetry

Download or read book Andean Journeys a Bilingual Anthology of Contemporary Bolivian Poetry written by Ronald Haladyna and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12-20 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andean Journeys: A Bilingual Anthology of Contemporary Bolivian Poetry is the fourth in a series of books that aspire to address a dearth of information in the English-speaking world about South American poetry of the past thirty years. The fourteen outstanding poets included here represent a diversity of themes, styles, and perspectives in one of South Americas more marginalized nations. All of them have published extensively, have been recognized through literary awards and inclusion in national and international anthologies, and continue writing and publishing today. For readers unfamiliar with Bolivia, the introduction provides a brief background of its geography, history, politics, economy, and society. This is followed by an ample selection of representative poems published previously in Spanish, with translations in English on facing pages. The book concludes with a brief biographical sketch of each poet and an extensive bibliography of primary and secondary sources for readers wishing to pursue further reading or research. Contemporary Uruguayan Poetry: A Bilingual Anthology; Exotic Territory: A Bilingual Anthology of Contemporary Paraguayan Poetry; and Volcanic Reflections: A Bilingual Anthology of Contemporary Ecuadorian Poetry are companion volumes that offer similar exposure to poetry that deserves to be better known in the English-speaking world.

Book On the Edge

  • Release : 2015
  • ISBN : 1781381607
  • Pages : 448 pages

Download or read book On the Edge written by Maria Cristina Fumagalli and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the Edge: Writing the Border between Haiti and the Dominican Republic is a literary and cultural history which brings to the fore a compelling but, so far, largely neglected body of work which has the politics of borderline-crossing as well as the poetics of borderland-dwelling on Hispaniola at its core. Over thirty fictional and non-fictional literary texts (novels, biographical narratives, memoirs, plays, poems, and travel writing), are given detailed attention alongside journalism, geo-political-historical accounts of the status quo on the island, and striking visual interventions (films, sculptures, paintings, photographs, videos and artistic performances), many of which are sustained and complemented by different forms of writing (newspaper cuttings, graffiti, captions, song lyrics, screenplay, tattoos). Dominican, Dominican-American, Haitian and Haitian-American writers and artists are put in dialogue with authors who were born in Europe, the rest of the Americas, Algeria, New Zealand, and Japan in order to illuminate some of the processes and histories that have woven and continue to weave the texture of the borderland and the complex web of border relations on the island. Particular attention is paid to the causes, unfolding, and immediate aftermath of the 1791 slave revolt, the 1937 massacre of Haitians and Haitian-Dominicans in the Dominican Northern borderland as well as to recent events and topical issues such as the 2010 earthquake, migration, and environmental degradation. On the Edge is an invaluable multicultural archive for those who want to engage fully with the past and present of Hispaniola and refuse to comply with the idea that an acceptable future is unattainable.

Book Words of the True Peoples Palabras de los Seres Verdaderos

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 2014-05-06 with total page 305 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 Three contains plays by six Mexican indigenous writers. Their plays appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Montemayor and Frischmann have abundantly annotated the Spanish, English, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that introduce the work of each playwright and discuss the role of theater within indigenous communities. These supporting materials make the anthology especially accessible and interesting for nonspecialist readers seeking a greater understanding of Mexico's indigenous peoples.

Book Chicana Feminisms

  • Author : Patricia Zavella

  • Release : 2003-07-09
  • ISBN : 0822384353
  • Pages : 407 pages

Download or read book Chicana Feminisms written by Patricia Zavella and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2003-07-09 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chicana Feminisms presents new essays on Chicana feminist thought by scholars, creative writers, and artists. This volume moves the field of Chicana feminist theory forward by examining feminist creative expression, the politics of representation, and the realities of Chicana life. Drawing on anthropology, folklore, history, literature, and psychology, the distinguished contributors combine scholarly analysis, personal observations, interviews, letters, visual art, and poetry. The collection is structured as a series of dynamic dialogues: each of the main pieces is followed by an essay responding to or elaborating on its claims. The broad range of perspectives included here highlights the diversity of Chicana experience, particularly the ways it is made more complex by differences in class, age, sexual orientation, language, and region. Together the essayists enact the contentious, passionate conversations that define Chicana feminisms. The contributors contemplate a number of facets of Chicana experience: life on the Mexico-U.S. border, bilingualism, the problems posed by a culture of repressive sexuality, the ranchera song, and domesticana artistic production. They also look at Chicana feminism in the 1960s and 1970s, the history of Chicanas in the larger Chicano movement, autobiographical writing, and the interplay between gender and ethnicity in the movie Lone Star. Some of the essays are expansive; others—such as Norma Cantú’s discussion of the writing of her fictionalized memoir Canícula—are intimate. All are committed to the transformative powers of critical inquiry and feminist theory. Contributors. Norma Alarcón, Gabriela F. Arredondo, Ruth Behar, Maylei Blackwell, Norma E.

Book Contemporary Uruguayan Poetry

Download or read book Contemporary Uruguayan Poetry written by Ronald Haladyna and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The editor of this anthology addresses this literary omission by identifying seventeen Uruguayans deserving of recognition: Jorge Arbeleche, Nancy Bacelo, Washington Benavides, Mario Benedetti, Amanda Berenguer, Luis Bravo, Selva Casal, Rafael Courtoisie, Marosa Di Giorgio, Enrique Fierro, Alfredo Fressia, Saul Ibargoyen, Circe Maia, Jorge Meretta, Eduardo Milan, Alvaro Miranda, and Salvador Puig. The selection of these poets is based on extensive research and personal taste, but also because they have a recognized, sustained record of published books of poetry, especially during the 1990s; they have been favorably acknowledged for their work by peers and critics--through reviews and interviews in local news media; they have received recognition through national or international literary awards; and, for the most part, they are still active as poets in the new millennium. Furthermore, they comprise a representative cross section of diverse generations, perspectives, themes, and poetics extant in today's poetry in Uruguay." "Each of the poets is represented by a selection of original poems in Spanish to demonstrate the diversity of their expression and English translations to render them meaningful for both English and Spanish reading publics. The extensive bibliographies of primary and secondary sources of each poet is unprecedented; hopefully it will serve as a guide to encourage research on this neglected area of Spanish American literature. There is currently no canon of contemporary Uruguayan poets, but this project is intended to provide a meaningful step toward opening a discussion of such a canon."--BOOK JACKET.
