  • Author : Erasmo de Rotterdam
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2013-03-25
  • ISBN : 9781483945910
  • Pages : 100 pages

Download or read book Elogio de la Locura written by Erasmo de Rotterdam and published by . This book was released on 2013-03-25 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ERASMO, (1467-1536), nació en Rotterdam e ingresó en la orden de los Agustinos. Sin embargo, gracias a la protección del obispo de Cambrai, fue autorizado a salir del claustro y viajar por Europa. Sus principales obras fueron una edición en griego del Nuevo Testamento (1516), seguida de una paráfrasis en latín; el "Elogio de la locura" (1511) y "El manual del caballero cristiano", que fue traducido al español en 1526. No era teólogo, sino más bien filólogo, profundo conocedor del pensamiento y arte del mundo clásico. Pero para Erasmo y sus seguidores, el valor de los estudios clásicos consistía precisamente en que podían ser de una gran utilidad en el cometido de alcanzar una mejor comprensión del cristianismo, elucidando sus textos fundadores. En España, el erasmismo tuvo un formidable impacto. Fueron notables erasmistas Juan Luis Vives, Juan de Vergara, Alfonso de Valdés y Andrés Laguna. Tanto la Corona española como la Universidad de Alcalá, ofrecieron protección a los erasmistas españoles. No obstante, mediada la década de los 30, Carlos V llegó a un acomodo con el Papa, al tiempo que la propagación del protestantismo por Alemania hizo parecer peligroso el erasmismo, de modo que el emperador abandonó a sus antiguos protegidos y permitió que la Inquisición los persiguiera con acusaciones de iluminismo. A pesar de ello, la corriente del erasmismo se mantuvo subterránea y llegó a influenciar la obra del más grande escritor del Siglo de Oro, Miguel de Cervantes.

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 256 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.

Book Cervantes  Epic Novel

Download or read book Cervantes Epic Novel written by Michael Armstrong-Roche and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2009-05-08 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Miguel de Cervantes conceived his final work, The Labours of Persiles and Sigismunda: A Northern Story (1617), as a great prose epic that would accomplish for its age what Homer and Virgil had done for theirs. And yet, by the eighteenth century Don Quixote had eclipsed Persiles in the favour of readers and writers alike and the later novel is now virtually forgotten except by specialists. This study sets out to help restore Persiles to pride of place within Cervantes's corpus by reading it as the author's summa, as a boldly new kind of prose epic that casts an original light on the major political, religious, social, and literary debates of its era. At the same time it seeks to illuminate how such a lofty and solemn ambition could coexist with Cervantes evident urge to delight. Grounded in the novel's multiple contexts - literature, history and politics, philosophy and theology - and in close reading of the text, Michael Armstrong-Roche aims to reshape our understanding of Persiles within the history of prose fiction and to take part in the ongoing conversation about the relationship between literary and non-literary cultural forms. Ultimately he reveals how Cervantes recast the prose epic, expanding it in new directions to accommodate the great epic themes - politics, love, and religion - to the most urgent concerns of his day.

Book The Positive Image of the Jew in the  comedia

Download or read book The Positive Image of the Jew in the comedia written by Andrew Herskovits and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2005 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Argues, contrary to most scholarly opinion, that while on the explicit level they are anti-Jewish, in a covert manner the dramatic works of the Spanish Golden Age present a positive image of the Jews. Works by Rojas, Cervantes, and, especially, Lope de Vega are shown to have used coded writing and techniques of dissimulation to subvert the dominant anti-Jewish ideology of the day, embodied in the actions of the Inquisition and in the "limpieza de sangre" statutes. A reason for the indirect approach was that the writers, who were influenced by Christian Humanism rather than by any putative Converso origin, themselves sought to escape interrogation by the Inquisition. One technique used was to replace the Converso by the figure of a persecuted woman or by a biblical, legendary, or foreign Jew. Defending the Jews was an aspect of espousal of justice for all.

Book From Ignatius Loyola to John of the Cross

Download or read book From Ignatius Loyola to John of the Cross written by Terence O'Reilly and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 16th century saw the rise of movements of religious reform which, in Spain as elsewhere, contributed to make the history of the period such a ferment. In these essays Terence O’Reilly is concerned with the writings produced by these movements, notably Illuminism, the early Jesuits, Erasmianism, and the Carmelite reform, and with the mixture of medieval and new literary conventions that they display. The book first deals with Ignatius Loyola and his Spiritual Exercises, examining its origins in his experience of conversion and the books he read, and locating him not in the period of the militant Counter-Reform, but in an earlier world, linked to the teachings of 16th Spanish Erasmians and illuminists. One study, hitherto unpublished, presents the lost treatise in which the Dominican Melchor Cano argued that Ignatius was an alumbrado. The following sections move to the later the century, considering the connections between spirituality and literature in works such as the ode to Salinas and, above all, in the mystical poetry of John of the Cross and its basis in exegesis and liturgical and devotional texts.

Book The Early Modern Hispanic World

Download or read book The Early Modern Hispanic World written by Kimberly Lynn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iberia stands at the center of key trends in Atlantic and world histories, largely because Portugal and Spain were the first European kingdoms to 'go global'. The Early Modern Hispanic World engages with new ways of thinking about the early modern Hispanic past, as a field of study that has grown exponentially in recent years. It focuses predominantly on questions of how people understood the rapidly changing world in which they lived - how they defined, visualized, and constructed communities from family and city to kingdom and empire. To do so, it incorporates voices from across the Hispanic World and across disciplines. The volume considers the dynamic relationships between circulation and fixedness, space and place, and how new methodologies are reshaping global history, and Spain's place in it.

  • Release : 2024-07-26
  • ISBN : 0520377419
  • Pages : 309 pages

Download or read book Cultural Encounters written by Mary Elizabeth Perry and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-07-26 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than just an expression of religious authority or an instrument of social control, the Inquisition was an arena where cultures met and clashed on both shores of the Atlantic. This pioneering volume examines how cultural identities were maintained despite oppression. Persecuted groups were able to survive the Inquisition by means of diverse strategies—whether Christianized Jews in Spain preserving their experiences in literature, or native American folk healers practicing medical care. These investigations of social resistance and cultural persistence will reinforce the cultural significance of the Inquisition. Contributors: Jaime Contreras, Anne J. Cruz, Jesús M.

Book The Bible in the Renaissance

Download or read book The Bible in the Renaissance written by Richard Griffiths and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of nine essays, with an introduction by Richard Griffiths, examines some of the broad themes relating to the way in which the reading, translation and interpretation of the Bible in the Renaissance could serve the specific and often practical aims of those involved. Moving from humanist issues concerned with the nature of the sacred texts and methods for interpreting them, the volume examines the uses of the Bible in different contexts, and looks at the social, political and religious impact of its translations in the sixteenth century.
