Book Europa  Europa

Download or read book Europa Europa written by Sascha Bru and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2009-10-29 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first volume of the new series “European Avant-Garde and Modernism Studies” focuses on the relation between the avant-garde, modernism and Europe. It combines interdisciplinary and intermedial research on experimental aesthetics and poetics. The essays, written by experts from more than fifteen countries, seek to bring out the complexity of the European avant-garde and modernism by relating it to Europe’s intricate history, multiculturalism and multilingualism. They aim to inquire into the divergent cultural views on Europe taking shape in avant-garde and modernist practices and to chart a composite image of the “other Europe(s)” that have emerged from the (contemporary) avant-garde and experimental modernism. How did the avant-garde and modernism in (and outside) Europe give shape to local, national and pan-European forms of identity and community? To what extent does the transnational exchange and cross-fertilisation of aesthetic tendencies illustrate the well-rehearsed claim that the avant-gardes form a typically European phenomenon? Dealing with canonised as well as lesser known exponents of modernism and the avant-garde throughout Europe, this book will appeal to all those interested in European cultural, literary and art history.

Book The Arthur of the Iberians

Download or read book The Arthur of the Iberians written by David Hook and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book fills the Iberian linguistic and geographical gap in Arthurian studies, replacing the now-outdated work by William J. Entwistle (1925). It covers Arthurian material in all the major Peninsular Romance languages (Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, Galician); it follows the spread of Arthurian material overseas with the seaborne expansion of Spain and Portugal from Iberia into America and Asia in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries; and, as well as examining the specifically Arthurian texts themselves, it traces the continued influence of the medieval Arthurian material and its impact on the society, literature and culture of the Golden Age and beyond, including its presence in Don Quixote, the influential Spanish Arthurian-inspired romance Amadís de Gaula, and in Spanish ballads. Such was its influence that we find an indigenous American woman called ‘Iseo’ (Iseult); and an Arthurian story appeared in an indigenous language of the Philippines, Tagalog, as late as the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Book Literatura Hispanoamericana

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Spanish-language anthology contains selections by 45 Latin-American authors. It is intended as a text for upper division Latin American literature survey courses. The anthology presumes a high level of linguistic command of Spanish, and it contains footnotes to allusions and cultural references, as well as words and phrases not found in standard bilingual dictionaries used in the US. Emphasis is on major 20th-century writers, while important works from colonial and 19th-century literature as also included. The diverse selections of Literature Hispanoamericana will enable students to have a more sustained exposure to major voices of Latin American literature than possible in anthologies built around fragments. By focusing on fewer authors but more significant selections from their writings, students will have a greater grasp of major canonical figures as well as emergent voices.

Book La traducci  n de literatura   rabe contempor  nea

Download or read book La traducci n de literatura rabe contempor nea written by Gonzalo Fernández Parrilla and published by Univ de Castilla La Mancha. This book was released on 2000 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta obra propone una reflexión sobre el impacto que en la recepción de la literatura árabe contemporánea en Europa tuvo la concesión en 1988 del Premio Nobel de Literatura a un autor en lengua árabe: Naguib Mahfuz. El Nobel a Mahfuz activó el interés de las editoriales, que buscaron el contacto con especialistas y traductores, y provocó un aumento de las traducciones de literatura árabe contemporánea. Pero, ¿se trataba simplemente de un fenómeno coyuntural ligado al premio, o se había canalizado realmente el interés hacia una lengua y cultura tan próximas geográficamente como desconocidas en el viejo continente? ¿Podíamos hablar de una recepción europea de la literatura árabe contemporánea, o quizás era más conveniente referirse a recepciones nacionales en cada uno de los países en función de contextos particulares? ¿Había sido valorada esta literatura en los medios periodísticos europeos por su calidad, por contener unas señas de identidad incuestionables y por ofrecer una dimensión estética o creadora propias, o seguía siendo acogida sólo como expresión de hábitos y conductas diferentes, a favor o en contra de la liberación de la mujer o del extremismo religioso, desde la óptica narrativa de ’Las mil y una noches’, o fuera de ella? Transcurrida una década del Nobel 1988, por primera vez en la historia a un escritor en lengua árabe, la Escuela de Traductores de Toledo consideró que era un buen momento para hacer un primer balance sobre la recepción de la literatura árabe contemporánea en Europa. Estas páginas recogen las respuestas que traductores, profesores, narradores y editores de diferentes países de la cuenca mediterránea ofrecieron durante el coloquio que bajo el mismo título se celebró en la Escuela de Traductores de Toledo del 29 al 31 de octubre de 1998, gracias al apoyo de la Fundación Europea de la Cultura, en el marco del Observatorio Permanente sobre la Traducción del Árabe.

Book World Literature  Cosmopolitanism  Globality

Download or read book World Literature Cosmopolitanism Globality written by Gesine Müller and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From today’s vantage point it can be denied that the confidence in the abilities of globalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism to illuminate cultural signification processes of our time has been severely shaken. In the face of this crisis, a key concept of this globalizing optimism as World Literature has been for the past twenty years necessarily is in the need of a comprehensive revision. World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Against, Post, Otherwise offers a wide range of contributions approaching the blind spots of the globally oriented Humanities for phenomena that in one way or another have gone beyond the discourses, aesthetics, and political positions of liberal cosmopolitanism and neoliberal globalization. Departing basically (but not exclusively) from different examples of Latin American literatures and cultures in globalized contexts, this volume provides innovative insights into critical readings of World Literature and its related conceptualizations. A timely book that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a mustread for all scholars involved in the field of the global dimensions of literature.
