This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El presente volumen recoge diversas investigaciones recientes sobre aspectos relevantes y novedosos para la compresión y estudio del siglo XVIII en diferentes lugares del continente americano: Nueva Inglaterra, la cuenca del mar Caribe, Nueva España, el Nuevo Reino de Granada, Quito y Brasil. El grupo de historiadores que ha hecho posible este libro se ha encargado de llamar la atención sobre la significativa importancia del siglo XVIII como una época de consolidación, pero a su vez, de innumerables fracasos, que impulsaron la decadencia del dominio europeo en una vastísima porción del Nuevo Mundo y que dio paso a la cristalización de procesos revolucionarios e independentistas. Este volumen se ha articulado entre exploraciones geográficas, regímenes de esclavitud, revoluciones, contrabandos, espionajes y fronteras, todos tópicos enmarcados en lo que puede considerarse como un siglo XVIII de larga duración. Las contribuciones que aquí presentamos deben ser útiles, no solo a los investigadores preocupados por temáticas similares, sino también para aquellos lectores interesados en conocer aspectos de la historia colonial americana que, sin duda, se suelen relativizar ?y en ocasiones ignorar- en las historias "monolíticas; "totales " y "generales " del continente.

Download or read book The United Kingdom and Spain in the Eighteenth Century written by Manuel-Reyes García Hurtado and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-23 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to bridge a gap in the historiography of Spain and Great Britain by arguing that while the eighteenth century witnessed periods of tension, conflict and hostility between the two powers, their relationship remained multifaceted and significant in other spheres. Throughout the eighteenth century, Spain and Great Britain passed through phases of open warfare, armed peace and deep suspicion. The British capture of Gibraltar and Menorca dealt a severe blow to the newly established Bourbon dynasty in Spain. Even in times of war, however, not all communication channels were closed, with numerous formal and informal contacts being made despite the volatile political climate and enmities. The contributors of this book go beyond the well-known animosity and conflicts to explore the spectrum of interactions, encompassing cultural exchange, traditional diplomacy, trade and espionage plus a multitude of other facets. This book is a valuable resource for researchers and students interested in the complex relations between Great Britain and Spain during the eighteenth century, as well as for a broader audience of historians and both undergraduate and postgraduate students of history and international relations.

Download or read book The Configuration of the Spanish Public Sphere written by David Jiménez Torres and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2019-06-06 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the explosion of the indignados movement beginning in 2011, there has been a renewed interest in the concept of the “public sphere” in a Spanish context: how it relates to society and to political power, and how it has evolved over the centuries. The Configuration of the Spanish Public Sphere brings together contributions from leading scholars in Hispanic studies, across a wide range of disciplines, to investigate various aspects of these processes, offering a long-term, panoramic view that touches on one of the most urgent issues for contemporary European societies.

Download or read book The Routledge Companion to the Hispanic Enlightenment written by Elizabeth Franklin Lewis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-30 with total page 913 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to the Hispanic Enlightenment is an interdisciplinary volume that brings together an international team of contributors to provide a unique transnational overview of the Hispanic Enlightenment, integrating both Spain and Latin America. Challenging the usual conceptions of the Enlightenment in Spain and Latin America as mere stepsisters to Enlightenments in other countries, the Companion explores the existence of a distinctive Hispanic Enlightenment. The interdisciplinary approach makes it an invaluable resource for students of Hispanic studies and researchers unfamiliar with the Hispanic Enlightenment, introducing them to the varied aspects of this rich cultural period including the literature, visual art, and social and cultural history.

Download or read book Spanish Laughter written by Antonio Calvo Maturana and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2022-06-10 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting a cultural and interdisciplinary study of humor in Spain from the eighteenth century to the present day, this book examines how humour entered public life, how it attained a legitimacy to communicate ‘serious’ ideas in the Enlightenment and how this set the seed for the key position that humor occupies in society today. Through a range of case studies that run from Goya’s paintings, humor, and gender representations in radio programmes during the first Franco regime, developmentalist cinema of the sixties and seventies, to the transformation of female humor in social media, the book traces the core role that the comical has played in the public sphere. The contributors to this volume represent a wide range of disciplines including gender studies, humour studies and Hispanic studies and offer international perspectives on Spanish laughter.

Download or read book Latino as in the World system written by Ramon Grosfoguel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributors Immanuel Wallerstein, Enrique Dussel, Walter Mignolo, Agustin Lao, Lewis Gordon, James V. Fenelon, Roberto Hernandez, James Cohen, Santiago Slabosky, Susanne Jonas, and Thomas Reifer. By the mid-twenty-first century, white Euro-Americans will be a demographic minority in the United States and Latino/as will be the largest minority (25 percent). These changes bring about important challenges at the heart of the contemporary debates about political transformations in the United States and around the world. Latino/as are multiracial (Afro-latinos, Indo-latinos, Asian-latinos, and Euro-latinos), multi-ethnic, multireligious (Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, indigenous, and African spiritualities), and of varied legal status (immigrants, citizens, and illegal migrants). This collection addresses for the first time the potential of these diverse Latino/a spiritualities, origins, and statuses against the landscape of decolonization of the U.S. economic and cultural empire in the twenty-first century. Some authors explore the impact of Indo-latinos and Afro-latinos in the United States and others discuss the conflicting interpretations and political conflicts arising from the "Latinization" of the United States.
