Book Hermeneutics and Medieval Culture

Download or read book Hermeneutics and Medieval Culture written by Patrick J. Gallacher and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1989-06-26 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the art of interpretation in works of history, art, music, and literature from the medieval period. The authors demonstrate that the search for meaning was a primary concern of medieval authors and that the history of medieval thought from Augustine to Aquinas and Ockham illustrates the dialectic of question and answer that is the foundation of hermeneutics. This study is the first to offer a diversity of hermeneutic approaches and themes in the context of medieval works. The study's interdisciplinary approach to the medieval works considered invites analysis from scholars and critics in all areas of medieval studies. The breadth of scope in addressing the art of interpretation in the various disciplines also provides a valuable general introduction to medieval culture.

Book Speaking Truth to Power

Download or read book Speaking Truth to Power written by Matthew Bailey and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2023-08-31 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging from a richly diverse oral narrative tradition, the heroic tale of the young Cid appears in multiple textual manifestations. From its first appearance circa 1300, the dynamic narrative of the legendary deeds of this young Castilian warrior eclipses the uninspired, matter-of-fact narration of the reign of Fernando I into which it is incorporated. In its analysis of the Mocedades de Rodrigo, the epic poem of Cid’s youth, Speaking Truth to Power identifies the narrative cohesion and the aesthetic principles that elevated the story of the young Cid to its place of prominence among the epic narratives of medieval Spain. Examining the evolution of the narrative through various textual versions, Matthew Bailey highlights the permutations that propelled the young Cid’s unparalleled popularity. The book traces this vibrant narrative tradition from its earliest manifestation in the aftermath of Charlemagne’s imperial mission in Spain to the early modern drama of Guillén de Castro. It convincingly discerns the leadership qualities and the social impact of its legendary protagonists, from their manifestation in the Latin chronicles of early Iberia through the Renaissance, incorporating a wealth of previous scholarship in its innovative findings. Speaking Truth to Power provides readers with a heightened appreciation for the vibrancy of the poetic tradition that lives beyond the texts we study, the oral narratives that are continually refashioned for new audiences and contexts.

Book Shakespeare and the Spanish Comedia

Download or read book Shakespeare and the Spanish Comedia written by Bárbara Mujica and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-03 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespeare and the Spanish Comedia is a nearly unique transnational study of the theater / performance traditions of early modern Spain and England. Divided into three parts, the book focuses first on translating for the stage, examining diverse approaches to the topic. It asks, for example, whether plays should be translated to sound as if they were originally written in the target language or if their “foreignness” should be maintained and even highlighted. Section II deals with interpretation and considers such issues as uses of polyphony, the relationship between painting and theater, and representations of women. Section III highlights performance issues such as music in modern performances of classical theater and the construction of stage character. Written by a highly respected group of British and American scholars and theater practitioners, this book challenges the traditional divide between the academy and the stage and between one theatrical culture and another.

Book The Bourgeois as Hero

Download or read book The Bourgeois as Hero written by Heinz Schlaffer and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1989 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ^BAVAILABLE FOR FIRST TIME IN U.S. ^RThis work is a highly original analysis of how the bourgeoisie created themselves as the heroes of the literature of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is a systematic study of bourgeois literature which clearly shows the integral relationship between a social class and the ideals projected in its literary works. The idea of the bourgeois as hero is pursued through a brilliant reading of the major texts of classical German literature. The author focuses on opposing literary forms: epic and novel in Jean Paul's Titan; poetry and prose in Goethe's Bridegroom; tragedy and comedy in Lessing's Minna von Barnhelm. Schlaffer links these forms to bourgeois preoccupations with love, work, honour and money to show how the interests of the bourgeoisie as a class underpin and subvert its idealistic literary aspirations. This challenging new analysis demonstrates how literature can be used to interpret social structure, and also how the influence of social structure can generate deviation and ambivalence in literary themes and forms. In The Bourgeois as Hero, Schlaffer has produced a major new synthesis of sociology and literary theory in a manner similar to Luk·cs. It will be of great importance for students and academics, in modern languages and literature, literary theory, sociology and cultural studies. Contents: Introduction; 1 Epic and Novel. Action and Consciousness. Jean Paul's^R Titan; 2 Poetry and Prose. Love and Labour. Goethe's Bridegroom; 3 Tragedy and Comedy. Honour and Money.
