Book The Calderonian Stage

Download or read book The Calderonian Stage written by Manuel Delgado and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This collection of essays invites the contemporary reader to consider the works of Pedro Calderon de la Barca (1600-81), who became the most important and influential dramatist of the second period of the Spanish Golden Age, just as Lope de Vega (1562-1635) was for the preceding generation. A follower of Lope in his youth, Calderon, as a mature playwright, developed a drama all of his own, a drama that was highly conceptual, tightly knit, symbolic, and, in many cases, spectacular. Calderon's artistry in verbal and visual symbolism made the performance of his works a feast for both the senses and the intellect." "Until now, many of Calderon's critics have focused their attention on how the poetic devices, particularly metaphors and symbols, appearing in his plays represent his philosophy or his ideas. But as some scholars of Spanish Golden Age drama have argued, the study of Calderon's theater must take into account not only the literary text, but also the physical conditions of the stage, the elements used in the representation - decor, costumes, lighting, music - and the house dynamics at each performance. In other words, each play must be considered as a composition of the soul and body, of poetry and spectacle, in which both elements support, complement, and explain one another in performance." "This is the task that has been undertaken by the contributors to this volume. By focusing on the relationship between text and performance, they have highlighted several areas that are often overlooked in traditional text-based approaches. From different perspectives, they show how Calderon gives concrete shape to the concepts and tales from the Bible, theology, mythology, the Corpus Hermeticum, emblematic literature, philosophy, and realities of civic and domestic origin."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of South America Vol  2

Download or read book Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of South America Vol 2 written by Ákos Máthé and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-15 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, as the seventh of the series Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of the World, deals with the medicinal and aromatic plant (MAPs) treasures of the so-called Southern Cone, the three southernmost countries (Argentina, Chile and Uruguay) of South America. Similarly to the previous volumes of the series, the main focus is to collect and provide information on major aspects of botany, traditional usage, chemistry, production / collection practices, trade and utilization of this specific group of plants. The contributors, who are recognized professionals and specialist of the domain, have collected and present state of the art information on 41 species. Most of these are not only of interest from the scientific point of view, but hold also a potential for the prospective utilization of the decreasing, occasionally overexploited / endangered medicinal plant resources of this huge continent. The book is expected to serve as a source of information also on some less known or less studied species. As such the volume is expected to support future research and public health professionals.

Download or read book Asesinato En El Letr N written by Carlo Emanuele Ruspoli and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fray Gian Galeazzo Ruspoli, Gran Prior de Pisa, se encuentra en 1188 en Roma, acompañando a su Gran Maestre, Fray Garnier de Naplouse, proveniente de la isla de Chipre, para presentar al Santo Padre Clemente III las reglas del nuevo código de la Orden adaptadas a la trágica pérdida del Hospital de Jerusalén y de las encomiendas en Tierra Santa. Un suceso inesperado y de con-secuencias imprevisibles va a trastocar su estancia. El arzobispo Baldwin de Canterbury, amigo del Gran Maestre y que les acompañó en el viaje por mar desde Pisa, ha sido asesinado y robados los tesoros y las reliquias de incalculable valor que había traído consigo. A los dos hermanos de Justicia de la Orden del Hospital se les encarga la resolución del caso en apariencia sencillo, pues las pruebas acusan claramente a un religioso de su misma orden que ha sido apresado. Sin embargo Gian Galeazzo se resiste a confirmar su culpabilidad porque son muchos los cabos sueltos y demasiados los sospechosos envueltos en una trama en la que se mezclan horrendos crímenes pasados, locos sueños de grandeza y oscuras ambiciones de poder. La saga de El Profeso está compuesta de momento por: El Profeso, Asesinato en el Letrán, Muerte de Profesos, El Profeso en Tíbet y, en preparación: El Profeso y el diablo. El protagonista Gian Galeazzo está inspirado en la extraordinaria figura de Galeazzo Marescotti, héroe de Bolonia y absolutamente retratada en otra de sus novelas históricas, titulada: El Confaloniero.

Download or read book New Latin American Cinema written by Michael T. Martin and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mapping the historical and cultural contexts of film practices in Latin America, this two-volume collection of programmatic statements, esays and interviews is devoted to the study of a theorized, dynamic and unfinished cinematic movement. Forged by Latin America's post-colonial environment of underdevelopment and dependency, the New Latin American Cinema movement has sought to inscribe itself in Latin America's struggles for cultural and economic autonomy. This volume comprises essays on the development of the New Latin American Cinema as a comparative national project. Essays are grouped by nation into two regions - Middle and Central America and Caribbean and South America - for comparitive study, particularly between capitalist and post-revolutionary socialist formations. The selected essays examine the relationship between cinema and nationhood and the ambiguous categories of culture, identity and nation within the socio-historical specificities of the movement's development, especially in Cuba, Brazil, Mexico, Chile and Argentina. This collection will serve as an essential reference and research tool for the study of world cinema. The collection, while celebrating the diversity and innovation of the New Latin American Cinema, explicates the historical importance of filmmaking as a cultural form and political practice in Latin America.
