Download or read book Dreams of Waking written by Vincent Barletta and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-03-22 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this anthology, Vincent Barletta, Mark L. Bajus, and Cici Malik treat the Iberian lyric in the late Middle Ages and early modernity as a deeply multilingual, transnational genre that needs to break away from the old essentialist ideas about language, geography, and identity in order to be understood properly. More and more, scholars and students are recognizing the limitations of single-language, nationalist, and period-bound canons and are looking for different ways to approach the study of literature. The Iberian Peninsula is an excellent site for this approach, where the history and politics of the region, along with its creative literature, need to be read and studied together with the way the works were composed by poets and eventually consumed by readers. With a generous selection of more than one hundred poems from thirty-three poets, Dreams of Waking is unique in its coverage of the three main languages—Catalan, Portuguese, and Spanish—and lyrical styles employed by peninsular poets. It contains new translations of canonical poems but also translations of many poems that have never before been edited or translated. Brief headnotes provide essential details of the poets’ lives, and a general introduction by the volume editors shows how the poems and languages fruitfully intersect. With helpful annotations to the poetry, as well as a selected bibliography containing the most important editions and translations from all three of the main Iberian languages, this volume will be an indispensable tool for both specialists and students in comparative literature.

Download or read book Sculpture Collections in Early Modern Spain written by Kelley Helmstutler Di Dio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, there has been a surge of Anglophone scholarship regarding Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, which has led to a reframing of the discourses around Spanish culture of this period. Despite this new interest-in which painting, in particular, has been singled out for treatment-a comprehensive study of sculpture collections and the status of sculpture in Spain has yet to be produced. Sculpture Collections in Early Modern Spain is the first book to assess the phenomenon of sculpture collecting and in doing so, it alters the previously held notion that Spanish society placed little value in this art form. Di Dio and Coppel reveal that, due to the problems and expense of their transport from Italy, sculptures were in fact status symbols in the culture. Thus they were an important component of the collections formed by the royal family, cultivated noble collectors, humanists, and artists who had pretensions of high status. This book is especially useful to specialists for its discussion of the typologies of collections and objects, and of the mechanics of state gifts, transport, and collection display in this period. An appendix presents extensive archival documentation, most of which has never before been published. The authors have uncovered hundreds of new documents about sculpture in Spain; and new documentary evidence allows them to propose several new identifications and attributions. Firmly grounded in extensive archival research, Sculpture Collections in Early Modern Spain redefines the socio-political and art historical importance of sculpture in early modern Spain. Most importantly, it entirely transforms our knowledge regarding the presence of sculpture in a wide range of Spanish collections of the period, which until now has been erroneously characterized as close to non-existent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: José Martín Félix de Arrate Acosta; nació en la Habana en 1701, fue historiador y político. Vinculado por lazos de consanguinidad a las más prestigiosas familias de la oligarquía habanera de la etapa. Se le considera como el primer historiador de Cuba por muchos ilustrados cubanos. Fue Regidor perpetuo del ayuntamiento de la Habana. Es el autor de Llave del Nuevo Mundo que constituye una muestra acabada de criollismo y modernidad, de la cual no se ha encontrado el manuscrito original y que refleja el modo de percibir Cuba, sus poblaciones y recursos sintetizando casi dos siglos de colonización española. Llave del Nuevo Mundo es una descripción completa de la sociedad cubana del siglo XVIII. La obra abarca cinco puntos: geografía y naturaleza, economía, unciones de las autoridades y magistraturas, cronología civil y eclesiástica, y una crónica cultural. «Por ser resguardo y conservación de los dilatados dominios en la vasta jurisdicción de la América [decidiose...] distinguir y conceder a La Habana, llamándola Llave del Nuevo Mundo y Antemural de las Indias Occidentales.» José Martín Félix de Arrate
