Download or read book Escribir la catalanidad written by Stewart King and published by Tamesis Books. This book was released on 2005 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the interaction of language, culture and identity in contemporary Catalonia and rejects the exclusion of Castilian as a language capable of expressing 'Catalan-ness'. This study, charting the construction of a Catalan identity from the nineteenth-century cultural renaissance until the present day, explores the interaction of language, culture and identity in contemporary Catalonia. Drawing on postcolonial and multicultural literary theories, it argues that Castilian- and Catalan-language narratives are expressions of the same culture. Through detailed analyses of texts by Terenci Moix, Francisco Candel, Ignasi Riera, Montserrat Roig, Juan Marsé, Ramon Pallicé, and Manuel Vázquez Montalbán, among others, the author demonstrates that such writers share similar preoccupations and points of view and also engage in a complex literary and cultural dialogue that cuts across the established linguistic divisions that characterise cultural politics in Catalonia. The Catalan literary establishment's exclusion of Castilian as a language capable of expressing 'Catalan-ness' ischallenged and the author proposes redefining traditional understandings of Catalan literature to take into account texts produced by all members of Catalan society. Stewart King is a lecturer in Hispanic Studies at Monash University, Australia.
Download or read book Migration and Development in Southern Europe and South America written by Maria Damilakou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-27 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the linkages between Southern Europe and South America in the post-World War II period, through organized migration and development policies. In the post-war period, regulated migration was widely considered in the West as a route to development and modernization. Southern European and Latin American countries shared this hegemonic view and adopted similar policies, strategies, and patterns, which also served to promote their integration into the Western bloc. This book showcases how overpopulated Southern European countries viewed emigration as a solution for high unemployment and poverty, whereas huge and underpopulated South American developing countries such as Brazil and Argentina looked at skilled European immigrants as a solution to their deficiencies in qualified human resources. By investigating the transnational dynamics, range, and limitations of the ensuing migration flows between Southern Europe and Southern America during the 1950s and 1960s, this book sheds light on post-World War II migration-development nexus strategies and their impact in the peripheral areas of the Western bloc. Whereas many migration studies focus on single countries, the impressive scope of this book will make it an invaluable resource for researchers of the history of migration, development, international relations, as well as Southern Europe and South America.

Download or read book La Espa a que sobrevive written by Fernando Díaz-Plaja and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 1996-12-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students of Spanish language and culture can now benefit from a text that provides them with an understanding of contemporary Spanish history and society while refining their knowledge of the language and expanding their vocabulary. La España que sobrevive (originally published in Madrid in 1987) explores the aftermath of the Franco era in Spain. It presents an objective and nonpartisan, yet humorous and affectionate, view of the important aspects of contemporary Spanish history and society. Topics include the transition to democracy; regionalism and nationalism; key players in current affairs; important institutions such as the monarchy, military, and the church; sexual mores; culture; the media; and politicized approaches to Spanish history. For this edition, William W. Cressey has edited Fernando Díaz-Plaja's text to make it accessible to English-speaking students at an advanced level of Spanish reading skills. Cressey has also added study aids to the book—vocabulary and footnotes, glosses on proper names, questions for discussion, notes on grammar and rhetoric, and exercises. The study aids are gradually phased out, so that the final chapter is presented as stand-alone reading without any supplementary materials. Cressey's adaptation of Díaz-Plaja's highly respected work provides an alternative to literary sources for foreign language instruction—a new resource for teaching foreign languages across the curriculum and instruction through content. Bridging the gap between the fairly simple intermediate readers and texts written for adult native speakers, this book can serve as either a supplementary or main text in the advanced study of language or history, or in preparation for study abroad. La España que sobrevive is a practical tool for teaching not only the language but also the many facets of modern Spanish culture.
Download or read book Spectacular Wealth written by Lisa Voigt and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridging print culture and performance, Spectacular Wealth draws on eighteenth-century festival accounts to explore how colonial residents of the silver-mining town of Potosí, in the viceroyalty of Peru, and the gold-mining region of Minas Gerais, in Brazil, created rich festive cultures that refuted European allegations of barbarism and greed. In her examination of the festive participation of the towns’ diverse inhabitants, including those whose forced or slave labor produced the colonies’ mineral wealth, Lisa Voigt shows how Amerindians, Afro-descendants, Europeans, and creoles displayed their social capital and cultural practices in spectacular performances. Tracing the multiple meanings and messages of civic festivals and religious feast days alike, Spectacular Wealth highlights the conflicting agendas at work in the organization, performance, and publication of festivals. Celebrants and writers in mining boomtowns presented themselves as far more than tributaries yielding mineral wealth to the Spanish and Portuguese empires, using festivals to redefine their reputations and to celebrate their cultural, spiritual, and intellectual wealth.

Download or read book Alemania written by Julio Camba and published by Editorial Renacimiento. This book was released on 2012-11-07 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro, Alemania. impresiones de un español, fue publicado hace casi un siglo, en 1916, y no es más que un puñado de crónicas periodísticas sobre la Alemania de 1912, aunque también sea mucho más. La Alemania que retrató Camba ya no existe, en realidad ni siquiera existía ya cuando se publicó el libro en plena Primera Guerra Mundial, pero es la Alemania de Camba, el primer gran periodista del siglo xx. Sus brevísimos y acerados artículos conspiran unánimemente contra la solemnidad y el lugar común y son un prodigio de observación y naturalidad, además de encerrar siempre una inmensa carga humorística de raíz hondamente galaica. A Camba, a todo Camba, pero en especial al primero, el más bien humorado y el más escéptico, puede seguir, tras casi 100 años, leyéndosele como lo que es, un escritor plenamente actual, un escritor de nuestro tiempo. Julio Camba Andreu (Vilanova de Arousa, 1884-Madrid, 1962) fue durante la segunda y tercera década del siglo XX uno de los más singulares corresponsales extranjeros que haya tenido nunca la prensa española. Su maestría no ha dejado de ser elogiada por escritores tan distintos y variados como Miguel Delibes, Francisco Umbral, Cándido, Manuel Vicent o Antonio Muñoz Molina. A los dieciséis años se escapó de casa y llegó hasta Buenos Aires. Allí se introdujo en los círculos anarquistas y redactó incendiarias proclamas y panfletos. Al final fue deportado del país junto con otros anarquistas. De regreso a España empezó a colaborar en la prensa local gallega y en publicaciones revolucionarias del Madrid de comienzos de siglo, y su prosa no tardó en ocupar las columnas de los más importantes periódicos (El País, España Nueva, La Correspondencia de España, El Mundo, La Tribuna, ABC, El Sol, Ahora...). De sus quince libros publicados, siete son crónicas de viaje para diversos periódicos: Playas, ciudades y montañas (Galicia, París y Suiza), Londres, Alemania (los tres de 1916), Un año en el otro mundo (1917) (Nueva York), La rana viajera (1920) (España), Aventuras de una peseta (1923) (Alemania, Londres, Italia y Portugal) y La ciudad automática (1932) (Nueva York de nuevo). Esta edición se presenta con un prólogo de Francisco Fuster y en ella se recogen las crónicas publicadas originalmente entre mayo de 1912 y enero de 1913 en La Tribuna, y, a partir de esta fecha y hasta marzo de 1915 en ABC.
