Book The Reception of Charles Dickens in Europe

Download or read book The Reception of Charles Dickens in Europe written by Michael Hollington and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-08-29 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reception of Charles Dickens in Europe offers a full historical survey of Dickens's reception in all the major European countries and many of the smaller ones, filling a major gap in Dickens scholarship, which has by and large neglected Dickens's fortunes in Europe, and his impact on major European authors and movements. Essays by leading international critics and translators give full attention to cultural changes and fashions, such as the decline of Dickens's fortunes at the end of the nineteenth century in the period of Naturalism and Aestheticism, and the subsequent upswing in the period of Modernism, in part as a consequence of the rise of film in the era of Chaplin and Eisenstein. It will also offer accounts of Dickens's reception in periods of political upheaval and revolution such as during the communist era in Eastern Europe or under fascism in Germany and Italy in particular.

Book Wisdom of Eccentric Old Men

Download or read book Wisdom of Eccentric Old Men written by Peter Bly and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2004 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wise fool, the sensible madman, and the village idiot, traditional characters in European literature, are best-known through Don Quixote. Galdós, Spain's most important novelist after Cervantes, contributed to this corpus with a number of principal characters whose affinity to Cervantes's hero is clearly recognizable. Bly demonstrates that a number of Galdós's secondary characters - the eccentric old men who appear with regular frequency in the realist social novels of his most important period of writing, 1876 to1897 - can be classified as a variant or sub-group of this type.

Book Imagined Truths

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mary Coffey
  • Publisher : University of Toronto Press
  • Release : 2019-05-19
  • ISBN : 1487505175
  • Pages : 411 pages

Download or read book Imagined Truths written by Mary Coffey and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2019-05-19 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.

  • Pages : 184 pages

Download or read book Dickens in Gald s written by Timothy Michael McGovern and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2000 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish novelist Benito Pérez Galdós (1843-1920) stated that one of his greatest influences was the English novelist Charles Dickens. This study focuses on Dickens' use of type characters as tools for social criticism and the manner in which Galdós utilizes these same types in order to critique Spanish society. The three major types analyzed in this study are the religious ascetic, the miser, and Dickens' and Galdós' versions of the Lazarillo, who is perceived as a type of national savior.

Book Gald  s and Darwin

Download or read book Gald s and Darwin written by T. E. Bell and published by Tamesis Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Darwinian theory - the big idea of the nineteenth century - and its impact on the writing of Benito Pérez Galdós. Despite the fact that Darwinian theory was perhaps the big idea of the nineteenth century, most critics in the past have assumed that Benito Pérez Galdós would have remained unaffected by this scientific and philosophical revolution. This work contends otherwise, charting the influence of evolutionary theories on Galdós throughout his literary career. From his adaptation of the early nineteenth-century costumbristas' depiction of social species into a more sophisticated portrayal of Madrid society to his treatment of shifting social forces at a time of major socio-economic change, Galdós's outlook is shown to be deeply enmeshed in the Darwinian debate. Attention is paid not only to the hypotheses of Darwin himself, but also for instance to Ernst Haeckel's evolutionary thought, to Herbert Spencer's social Darwinism, and to the radical histology of Santiago Ramón y Cajal. Galdós and Darwin discusses how Spain's greatest novelist since Cervantes imaginatively reworked these epoch-making theories and investigates the impact of science on culture as the Spanish nation approached the twentieth century. T. E. BELL completed his Ph.D. under the supervision of Professor Nicholas Round at Sheffield University.
