Download or read book Textual Agency written by Ann M. Gomez-Bravo and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Textual Agency examines the massive proliferation of poetic texts in fifteenth-century Spain, focusing on the important yet little-known cancionero poetry – the largest poetic corpus of the European Middle Ages. Ana M. Gómez-Bravo situates this cultural production within its social, political, and material contexts. She places the different forms of document production fostered by a shifting political and urban model alongside the rise in literacy and access to reading materials and spaces. At the core of the book lies an examination of both the materials of writing and how human agents used and transformed them, giving way to a textual agency that pertains not only to writers, but to the inscribed paper. Gómez-Bravo also explores how authorial and textual agency were competing forces in the midst of an era marked by the institution of the Inquisition, the advent of the absolutist state, the growth of cities, and the constitution of the Spanish nation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La memoria es traicionera y a veces nos juega malas pasadas. Decimos recordar cosas que tal vez nunca ocurrieron, pero eso no hace que nos parezcan menos reales. En Recuerdos de Cosas que Nunca Pasaron José Luis Nieto Mingo no pretende explicar por qué hay cosas que se nos quedan grabadas en la memoria a pesar de que no tienen nada de extraordinario. Se trata más bien de un intento de transmitir imágenes, obsesiones y sentimientos que necesariamente siempre se distorsionan cuando tratamos de contarlos.

Download or read book El Obispo Leproso written by Gabriel Miró and published by Hispanic Classics. This book was released on 2008 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gabriel Francisco Miro Ferrer was born on July 28th 1879, in Alicante on the Costa Blanca. Brought up in the Castilian-speaking Alicante, Miro was sent away to school in nearby Orihela, aged eight. The Jesuit Colegio de Santo Domingo would become the "Jesus" in The Leper Bishop. Miro studied Law, first a the University of Valencia, then at Granada, from which he graduated in 1900. He married in 1901, at the age of 22, and in that same year published his first novel, La mujer de Ojeda. The Leper Bishop was published in December 1926, when Miro was a grandfather, and he died not long afterwards, in May 1930, of peritonitis. The Leper Bishop (El obispo leproso) follows the story (begun in Our Father San Daniel) of a boy, Pablo, who is sent to a Jesuit school - a place where an extremist version of Catholicism is inflicted on its pupils. The novel portrays the struggle between innocence and evil, which, by the end of the book, is tempered by understanding. Miro has traditionally been seen as a writer difficult or impossible to translate, with very few of his works available in English. It is hoped that this edition will bring this lyrical writer's work to a wider audience.

Download or read book A Tree Within written by Octavio Paz and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1988 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Tree Within (Arbol Adentro), the first collection of new poems by the great Mexican author Octavio Paz since his Return (Vuelta) of 1975, was originally published as the final section of The Collected Poems of Octavio Paz, 1957-1987. Among these later poems is a series of works dedicated to such artists as Miró, Balthus, Duchamp, Rauschenberg, Tapies, Alechinsky, Monet, and Matta, as well as a number of epigrammatic and Chinese-like lyrics. Two remarkable long poems --"I Speak of the City," a Whitmanesque apocalyptic evocation of the contemporary urban nightmare, and "Letter of Testimony," a meditation on love and death--are emblematic of the mature poet in a prophetic voice.
