Book Neo Stoicism and Skepticism in Part One of Don Quijote

Download or read book Neo Stoicism and Skepticism in Part One of Don Quijote written by Daniel Lorca and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains how Cervantes took advantage of neo-stoicism and skepticism to remove the authority of the romances of chivalry, which was a popular genre during his time. It also explains why his strategy, which would have been instantly recognizable during the period, is no longer effective: our current moral systems are significantly different from the moral systems that were influential during Cervantes’s time, and consequently, what used to be self-evident is no longer the case. Therefore, this book may be useful to the literary critic interested in the philosophical foundations of Don Quijote, to the moral philosopher interested in the differences between pre-enlightenment virtue-ethics and current moral systems, and also in the field of the history of ideas. Don Quijote offers a unique opportunity to observe changes in moral thinking throughout time because it is a universal book, discussed extensively throughout out the centuries, and therefore the on-going discussion offers strong evidence to discover how morality has changed, and continues to change, through time.

Las múltiples interpretaciones de la obra reflejan su riqueza de significados y contenidos: una crítica de las novelas de caballerías, la contraposición entre realismo e idealismo, o una sátira de las ilusiones cortesanas. Con las divertidas andanzas de su ingenioso protagonista, Cervantes retrató la complejidad de lo humano y dio al arte literario su más alta expresión. Esta edición incluye una introducción que contextualiza la obra, un aparato de notas, una cronología y una bibliografía esencial, así como también varias propuestas de discusión y debate en torno a la lectura.

An edition by Florencio Sevilla Arroyo, Spanish language and literature professor at the Universidad Autónoma in Madrid. “Against sane men and crazy ones, any knight-errant is obliged to return for the honor of women.” A success from the moment of its publication in two parts (1605 and 1615), Don Quixote de la Mancha is probably the best novel ever written. It tells the story of a nobleman who, crazy from reading too much, travels around Spain in search of adventure, justice, and glory. The multiple interpretations of the work reflect its wealth of meaning and contents: a critique of books about chivalry, the juxtaposition of realism and idealism, and a satire of courtly dreams. With the entertaining adventures of its clever protagonist, Cervantes portrayed the complexity of being human and gave literary art its highest form of expression. This edition includes an introduction that contextualizes the work, a notes section, a timeline, and an essential bibliography, as well as several discussion and debate prompts about the reading. The work was led by Florencio Sevilla Arroyo, professor of Spanish language and literature at the Universidad Autónoma in Madrid.

Book Don Quixote   s Impossible Quest for the Absolute in Literature

Download or read book Don Quixote s Impossible Quest for the Absolute in Literature written by William Franke and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-07-31 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a reading particularly of Part II of Don Quixote, a reading that is embedded in a philosophical reflection on the revelation of religious truth in and through literature. Part II of Don Quixote is the far richer part for its meta-literary reflection on the novel itself as a genre and on life as such seen through the lens of self-reflection. The author has treated the phenomenon of modern self-reflexivity as originally theological in nature in previous publications (notably Dante’s Paradiso and the Theological Origins of Modern Thought: Toward a Speculative Philosophy of Self-Reflection, Routledge, 2021). The present endeavor expands this overall intellectual project, extending it into detailed consideration of what is recognizably another nodal great work inaugurating unprecedented forms of self-reflection in the early modern period. Reading the founding texts of literary and cultural tradition in this negative-theological key proves crucial to allowing them to release the full force of their religious vision in the present age, despite its sometimes obstinate secularity. This reading absorbs and reconciles the religious and secular readings of Miguel de Unamuno and José Ortega y Gasset, two of Spain’s outstanding philosophical luminaries. Both thinkers based their entire philosophies and their analyses of the Spanish national character and destiny on their interpretations of the Quixote. Negative theology deploys critical reason that critiques the limits of reason itself and opens toward an unfathomable (un)ground of All. Such speculative interpretation performs a synthesis of the secularizing and sacralizing tendencies that are both sublimely operative in the text of the Quixote. It thereby enables the work to emerge in the fully parodic and paradoxical vitality that other interpretations, governed by one paradigm or the other, access only partially. Rather than falling into one camp or the other, the proposed approach combines and resources both heritages, sacred and secular, in their deepest synergisms. Spanish baroque mysticism and contemporary post-secular thought are made to converge in highlighting the blessed, even sacred, donation that literature like Don Quixote preserves and transmits as our most precious and saving cultural heritage.

Book Tracing Paradigms  One Hundred Years of Neophilologus

Download or read book Tracing Paradigms One Hundred Years of Neophilologus written by Rolf H. Bremmer Jr and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together a selection of pivotal articles published in the hundred years since the launch of the journal Neophilologus. Each article is accompanied by an up-to-date commentary written by former and current editors of the journal. The commentaries position the articles within the history of the journal in particular and within the field of Modern Language Studies in general. As such, this book not only outlines the history of a scholarly journal, but also the history of an entire field. Over the course of its first one hundred years, 1916 to 2016, Neophilologus: An International Journal of Modern and Mediaeval Language and Literature has developed from a modest quarterly set up by a group of young and ambitious Dutch professors as a platform for their own publications to one of the leading international journals in Modern Language Studies. Although Neophilologus has remained broad in scope, multilingual and multidisciplinary, it has witnessed dramatic changes in its long-standing history: paradigm shifts, the rise and fall of literary theories, methods and sub-disciplines, as has the field of Modern Language Studies itself.

  • ISBN : 1487531699
  • Pages : 411 pages

Download or read book Imagined Truths written by Mary L. Coffey and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2019-05-09 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagined Truths provides a twenty-first-century analysis of stylistic and philosophical manifestations of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Spanish literary realism. Bringing together the work of the foremost specialists in the field of contemporary Spanish letters, this collection offers new approaches to literary and cultural criticism and reveals how Spanish realism, far from imitative of other European movements, engaged in complex and modern concepts of representation and mimesis. Imagined Truths acknowledges the critical importance of women writers and contemporary approaches to questions of gender. The essays address the impact of economics on our perceptions of reality and our constructions of everyday life, and they argue for the importance of emotions in the social construction of individual identity. Most importantly, the essays acknowledge the post-imperial turn in literary studies. Addressing a broad range of authors, works, and topics, including the continued relevance of Cervantes’s Don Quijote and the way Spanish realism moved beyond narrative to inhabit the spaces of both theatre and film, Imagined Truths comprises a series of meditations on new ways of understanding the unique place of realism in Spanish cultural history. Offering insights for specialists in a wide range of disciplines – literature, cultural studies, gender studies, history, philosophy – this collection is equally important for readers just becoming acquainted with realist narrative as a central component of Spanish literary history.

Book Cervantes  the Golden Age  and the Battle for Cultural Identity in 20th Century Spain

Download or read book Cervantes the Golden Age and the Battle for Cultural Identity in 20th Century Spain written by Ana María G. Laguna and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2021-07-29 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies that connect the Spanish 17th and 20th centuries usually do so through a conservative lens, assuming that the blunt imperialism of the early modern age, endlessly glorified by Franco's dictatorship, was a constant in the Spanish imaginary. This book, by contrast, recuperates the thriving, humanistic vision of the Golden Age celebrated by Spanish progressive thinkers, writers, and artists in the decades prior to 1939 and the Francoist Regime. The hybrid, modern stance of the country in the 1920s and early 1930s would uniquely incorporate the literary and political legacies of the Spanish Renaissance into the ambitious design of a forward, democratic future. In exploring the complex understanding of the multifaceted event that is modernity, the life story and literary opus of Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616) acquires a new significance, given the weight of the author in the poetic and political endeavors of those Spanish left-wing reformists who believed they could shape a new Spanish society. By recovering their progressive dream, buried for almost a century, of incipient and full Spanish modernities, Ana María G. Laguna establishes a more balanced understanding of both the modern and early modern periods and casts doubt on the idea of a persistent conservatism in Golden Age literature and studies. This book ultimately serves as a vigorous defense of the canonical as well as the neglected critical traditions that promoted Cervantes's humanism in the 20th century.

La primera parte de la novela lleva a Don Quijote de su pequeño pueblo de la mancha a los bosques de la sierra morena y de vuelta a su pueblo donde se recupera del cansancioy varias heridas. Sus encuentros con otros personajes suelen ser en ventas las cuales, en su locura, toma por castillos.Su meta es de enderezar toda la clase de males y de hacerse famoso por sus buenas acciones.Don Quijote se encuentra con una gran variedad de personajes, desde campesinos hasta nobles, desde criminales hasta curas,desde prostitutas y locos enamorados y hasta mujeres agraviadas y hombres celosos.

Download or read book Don Quijote de la Mancha written by Miguel de Cervantes and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-17 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Como dramaturgo Cervantes sobresalió en un género: el entremés, así como en las comedias en que describe sus experiencias personales como esclavo cautivo de los musulmanes en Argel: "El trato de Argel", su refundición "Los baños de Argel" y "La gran sultana", que figuran dentro del subgénero denominado «comedia de cautivos». También pueden considerarse obras maestras su tragedia "El cerco de Numancia" (1585) y la comedia "El rufián dichoso". Hace poco se ha recuperado una tragedia que se consideraba perdida, "Jerusalén", también harto notable.En 1604 se instaló en Valladolid (por aquel entonces Corte Real -desde 1601- de Felipe III). El mismo año 1604 Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas, Cronista de Indias y Censor de la obra de Miguel de Cervantes, autorizó la impresión. Y en enero de 1605 publicó la primera parte de la que será su principal obra: "El ingenioso hidalgo don Quijote de la Mancha". Ello marcó el comienzo del realismo como estética literaria y creó el género literario de la novela moderna, la novela polifónica, de amplísimo influjo posterior, mediante el cultivo de lo que llamó «una escritura desatada» en la que el artista podía mostrarse «épico, lírico, trágico, cómico» en el crisol genuino de la parodia de todos los géneros. La segunda parte no aparece hasta 1615: "El ingenioso caballero don Quijote de la Mancha".Ambas obras, contenidas en este volúmen, le ganan un puesto en la historia de la literatura universal y convierten a su autor, junto con Dante Alighieri, William Shakespeare, Michel de Montaigne y Goethe en un autor canónico de la literatura occidental.
