Book The Changing Spanish Family

Download or read book The Changing Spanish Family written by Tiffany Trotman and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2011-08-31 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite centuries of Catholic conservatism, Spain stands among the Western countries that have recently embraced non-traditional families. A decline in the dominance of extended families, the upswing in single-parent households, and an increase in the number of working mothers have all transformed what it means to be a "Spanish family." Many factors have prompted this change, including the end of Franco's dictatorship, the liberalization of society, economic reforms, Spanish feminism, and recent Socialist constitutional reforms recognizing the rights of same-sex partners. This collection of essays examines how authors, filmmakers and playwrights are engaging with changes to Spanish culture, exploring the very redefining of Spanish society.

Book Women Warriors in Early Modern Spain

Download or read book Women Warriors in Early Modern Spain written by Susan L. Fischer and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2019-07-18 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although scholars often depict early modern Spanish women as victims, history and fiction of the period are filled with examples of women who defended their God-given right to make their own decisions and to define their own identities. The essays in Women Warriors in Early Modern Spain examine many such examples, demonstrating how women battled the status quo, defended certain causes, challenged authority, and broke barriers. Such women did not necessarily engage in masculine pursuits, but often used cultural production and engaged in social subversion to exercise resistance in the home, in the convent, on stage, or at their writing desks.

Book Hispanic Balladry Today

Download or read book Hispanic Balladry Today written by Ruth H. Webber and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-09 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1989. The ballad or romance, as it is commonly called, has played a vital role over the centuries in Hispanic culture as an orally transmitted narrative song. It is characteristically the product of people who have had to look to themselves for entertainment. From the end of the fifteenth to the early seventeenth century, the romancero (balladry) enjoyed a great vogue among learned poets and their audiences, especially in the Spanish and Portuguese courts. The authors’ intent in this book is to survey and to assess the state of the romancero, not only in Spain and Portugal, but also in peripheral areas whereit has migrated and taken root.

Book T   tambi  n  herida rosa

Download or read book T tambi n herida rosa written by Daria Rolland and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En estas memorias noveladas, la narradora cuenta en primera persona su desnuda y dramática infancia en la España de los años cincuenta, y su compleja relación con un padre padrone. En contrapunto y en tercera persona, narra ciertos episodios de su juventud y madurez, en los que se la puede ver evolucionar en esferas sociales muy diferentes, y comprender como ha conseguido adquirir la cultura y el bienestar que anhelaba, pero también, hasta que punto es prisionera de su primera historia. En la cuarta y última parte, descubrimos, gracias a un largo monólogo, en que la narradora toma la voz de su padre, la historia de este culto proletario, cuya vida y amores fueron frustrados por la Guerra Civil, convirtiéndolo así en el hombre autoritario y amargo que aparece en la primera parte. Como piedras blancas, algunos poemas puntúan la narración, dándole aún más hondura. Una historia ejemplar en la España tremenda.

Book Borges and Kafka

Download or read book Borges and Kafka written by Sarah Roger and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-12-22 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sarah Roger investigates Jorge Luis Borges's development as an author in light of Franz Kafka's influence, and in consideration of Borges's relationship with his father, Jorge Guillermo Borges (Borges père, a failed author). Borges believed that much of Kafka's writing derived from his personal experiences, particularly his relationship with his father. This book looks at how reading Kafka helped Borges mediate and make productive use of his own relationship with his father, and it offers a thorough analysis of Borges père's writing, which is supplemented by an appendix that reprints Borges père's poetry for the first time. Borges and Kafka also provides extensive analysis of Kafka's presence in Borges's critical writing, his translations, and the stories that he modelled on Kafka. Particular attention is paid to the concepts that Borges identified as Kafka's obsessions: subordination, infinity, and hierarchical relationships, which Borges referred to as the 'patria potestad.' Roger's analysis is accompanied by an annotated bibliography documenting every mention of Kafka in Borges's writing and a list of every Kafka text Borges read. Kafka's influence is especially evident in the stories where Borges was openly imitating Kafka—'La lotería en Babilonia' (1941), 'La biblioteca de Babel' (1941), and 'El Congreso' (1971)—but it features throughout Ficciones. Reading Borges's writing in light of his interest in Kafka demonstrates his focus not just on the individual's subordinate place in an infinite hierarchy but also on the repercussions these circumstances had for a struggling author like Borges, who was seeking to define himself through his writing.
