Book The Spanish Romantic Theater

Download or read book The Spanish Romantic Theater written by John Reyna Tapia and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish Romanticism contained a special characteristic in that it lacked the interior aspects of Romanticism as found in the rest of Europe. This is attributed to the fact that Romanticism arrived late in Spain by approximately 30 years. The Romantics showed their dissatisfaction with the Classical formula by reacting violently against it and by opposing its rules. It required Victor Hugo, however, to unite and lead them in the direction they sought, with his preface to Cromwell, written in 1827. The principal Spanish Romantic dramas were written between 1834 and 1844 and included: La Conjuración de Venecia, 1834, by Francisco Martínez de la Rosa; Macías, 1834, by Mariano José de Larra; Don Alvaro o La Fuerza del Sino, 1835, by Angel Saavedra, duque de Rivas; El Trovador, 1836, by Antonio García Gutiérrez; Los Amantes de Tereul, 1837, by Juan Eugenio Hartzenbusch; and Don Juan Tenorio, 1844, by José Zorrila. - Preface.

Book The Adulteress on the Spanish Stage

Download or read book The Adulteress on the Spanish Stage written by Tracie Amend and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-04-21 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As early as 1760 and as late as 1920, Romantic drama dominated Peninsular Spanish theater. This love affair with Romanticism influenced the formation of Spain's modern national identity, which depended heavily on defining women's place in 19th century society. Women who defied traditional gender roles became a source of anxiety in society and on stage. The adulteress embodied the fear of rebellious women, the growing pains of modernity and the political instability of war and invasion. This book examines the conflicted portrayal of women and the Spanish national identity. Studying the adulteress on stage, the author provides insight into the uneasy tension between progress and tradition in 19th century Spain.

Book Love Customs in Eighteenth century Spain

Download or read book Love Customs in Eighteenth century Spain written by Carmen Martín Gaite and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was customary for the wife of a nobleman in eighteenth-century Spain to be courted fervently and seemingly forever, by a man who was not her husband. This liaison, accepted and even encouraged by the husband, was presumably platonic, though that may not always have been the case. It was carried on according to a complex, if ambiguous, code of companionship and whispered conversation. With the help of a lively blend of archival documents and literary sources, Carmen Martín Gaite admits us to the intricacies of the code and unravels its significance for the women who enjoyed the attention of a cortejo, or escort. Why was the cortejo tolerated, by society and by the woman's aristocratic family, even though it infringed traditional religious precepts? What did woman and her friend talk about at such length? Was their flirtation intellectual, reflecting the effects of Enlightenment rationalism on Spanish culture? Letters, memoirs, and travel journals as well as dramatic works of the period offer invaluable clues to the nature of these relationships, in which the woman was almost ritually adored and placed on a pedestal. The conversation, we learn, was generally frivolous, focusing on possessions and luxuries in a way that clearly signals economic change and the dawn of a material age. At the same time, the cortejo did represent a taste of symbolic liberation for women whose social lives were rigidly constrained. Clarifying details from a great variety of historical sources are presented with the urgency and fluidity of a novel in this excellent English translation -- Book jacket.
