Download or read book Sins of the Fathers written by Hilaire Kallendorf and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2013-12-06 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sins of the Fathers considers sins as nodes of cultural anxiety and explores the tensions between competing organizational categories for moral thought and behaviours, namely the Seven Deadly Sins and the Ten Commandments. Hilaire Kallendorf explores the decline and rise of these organizational categories against critical transformations of the early modern period, such as the accession of Spain to a position of world dominance and the arrival of a new courtly culture to replace an old warrior ethos. This ground-breaking study is the first to consider Spanish Golden Age comedias as an archive of moral knowledge. Kallendorf has examined over 800 of these plays to illustrate how they provide insight into aspects of early modern experience such as food, sex, work, and money. Finally, Kallendorf engages the theoretical terminology of Marxist literary criticism to demonstrate the inherent ambiguity of cultural change.
Download or read book Ambiguous Antidotes written by Hilaire Kallendorf and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chastity and lust, charity and greed, humility and pride, are but some of the virtues and vices that have been in tension since Prudentius’ Psychomachia, written in the fifth century. While there has been widespread agreement within a given culture about what exactly constitutes a virtue or a vice, are these categories so consistent after all? In Ambiguous Antidotes, Hilaire Kallendorf explores the receptions of Virtues in the realm of moral philosophy and the artistic production it influenced during the Spanish Golden Age. Using the Derridian notion of pharmakon, a powerful substance that can serve as poison and cure, Kallendorf’s original and pioneering insight into five key Virtues (justice, fortitude, chastity, charity, and prudence) reveals an intriguing but messy relationship. Rather than being seen as unambiguously good antidotes, the Virtues are instead contested spaces where competing sets of values jostled for primacy and hegemony. Employing an arsenal of tools drawn from literary theory and cultural studies, Ambiguous Antidotes confirms that you can in fact have too much of a good thing.

It reviews the Spanish plays from the 1580s to the death of Pedro Calderon de la Barca in 1681.

The text describes how Lope wrote his plays and how he sold them outright to the manager of an acting company, which became its property. The text also describes the life of Tirso de Molina who was often criticized for his cavalier treatment of a historical fact.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the decades following the death of Mariano José de Larra, scholars have been intrigued by the impact that both the man and his writings have had on generation after generation of Spanish and Latin American writers. This study looks at the genesis of Larra's genius by carefully tabulating and identifying his sources in literature and history. This important resource book will help Larra scholars understand more completely the intricate and complex system of images, allusions and references Fígaro used to compose his more than 250 newspaper articles. More importantly, the work provides yet another clue to understanding the thoughts, ideas and beliefs of a man whose influence continues to exert itself on Spanish letters.
