Escribir la catalanidad

Resumen del Libro

Libro Escribir la catalanidad

This study explores the interaction of language, culture and identity in contemporary Catalonia and rejects the exclusion of Castilian as a language capable of expressing 'Catalan-ness'. This study, charting the construction of a Catalan identity from the nineteenth-century cultural renaissance until the present day, explores the interaction of language, culture and identity in contemporary Catalonia. Drawing on postcolonial and multicultural literary theories, it argues that Castilian- and Catalan-language narratives are expressions of the same culture. Through detailed analyses of texts by Terenci Moix, Francisco Candel, Ignasi Riera, Montserrat Roig, Juan Marsé, Ramon Pallicé, and Manuel Vázquez Montalbán, among others, the author demonstrates that such writers share similar preoccupations and points of view and also engage in a complex literary and cultural dialogue that cuts across the established linguistic divisions that characterise cultural politics in Catalonia. The Catalan literary establishment's exclusion of Castilian as a language capable of expressing 'Catalan-ness' ischallenged and the author proposes redefining traditional understandings of Catalan literature to take into account texts produced by all members of Catalan society. Stewart King is a lecturer in Hispanic Studies at Monash University, Australia.

Javier Marías. El estilo sin sosiego

Libro Javier Marías. El estilo sin sosiego

Este libro es un proyecto original, ambicioso y riguroso que analiza el contexto histórico y estético en el que se sitúa la complejidad de la escritura literaria de Javier Marías. Se centra en los años formativos del novelista y propone una reconstrucción de los elementos genéticos de su poética literaria. De ahí que se estudie el campo literario español de los años finales del franquismo y se muestre cómo las obras del autor en ese tiempo son una consecuencia y a la vez una reacción a las transformaciones que se vivieron en España. El análisis de las novelas de Javier Marías...

Garcilaso de la Vega and the Italian Renaissance

Libro Garcilaso de la Vega and the Italian Renaissance

Following studies by Goodman, Waley, and Darst, this new study of Garcilaso's work rejects as unfounded the traditional readings of Garcilaso's poetry based on the idea of sincerity and the poet's frustrated love for the Portuguese lady-in-waiting Isabel Freire. In place of the much-abused concept of sincerity, Heiple argues that the intellectual currents of the Renaissance are much more important for the analysis of Garcilaso's poetry. He analyzes in Garcilaso's poetry the uses of Renaissance concepts of mythology, poetic style, theories of love, primitivism, and iconological traditions....

From the Sin-é Café to the Black Hills

Libro From the Sin-é Café to the Black Hills

Eamonn Wall arrived in the United States in the 1980s as part of a wave of young, educated immigrants who became known as the "New Irish." In this book he comments on his own experiences and those of his generation, who identify as much with contemporary ethnic and immigrant America as they do with the long-settled Irish American community. Wall's starting point is the now-closed Sin-é Café in New York's East Village, which was a hangout in the early 1990s for expatriate Irish musicians, actors, and writers. He comments on the poetry, fiction, essays, and memoirs of both the New Irish and...

Libro La imprenta enterrada

Otra mirada, otros contextos, otra escritura para la critica sobre Roberto Arlt; en este libro, por primera vez, sus textos son puestos en un contexto literario (y politico) internacional. La "lectura global" de Close no solo conecta a Arlt con Dostoievsky (gesto repetido en la critica) sino que lo pone en el marco general de la "ficcion conspirativa" junto con otros escritores europeos y norteamericanos, especialmente Baroja (pero tambien Turguenev, Conrad, Henry James). Asociar a Arlt con Baroja no es muy frecuente, a pesar de las ultimas referencias del mismo Arlt a su obra: los dos, dice...
