The Site of Petrarchism
Author: William J. Kennedy
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 0801881269
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 398
Book Description
Drawing upon poststructuralist theories of nationalism and national identity developed by such writers as Etienne Balibar, Emmanuel Levinas, Julia Kristeva, Antonio Negri, and Slavoj Zizek, noted Renaissance scholar William J. Kennedy argues that the Petrarchan sonnet serves as a site for early modern expressions of national sentiment in Italy, France, England, Spain, and Germany. Kennedy pursues this argument through historical research into Renaissance commentaries on Petrarch's poetry and critical studies of such poets as Lorenzo de' Medici, Joachim du Bellay and the Pléiade brigade, Philip and Mary Sidney, and Mary Wroth. Kennedy begins with a survey of Petrarch's poetry and its citation in Italy, explaining how major commentators tried to present Petrarch as a spokesperson for competing versions of national identity. He then shows how Petrarch's model helped define social class, political power, and national identity in mid-sixteenth-century France, particularly in the nationalistic sonnet cycles of Joachim Du Bellay. Finally, Kennedy discusses how Philip Sidney and his sister Mary and niece Mary Wroth reworked Petrarch's model to secure their family's involvement in forging a national policy under Elizabeth I and James I . Treating the subject of early modern national expression from a broad comparative perspective, The Site of Petrarchism will be of interest to scholars of late medieval and early modern literature in Europe, historians of culture, and critical theorists.

Nature's Colloquy with the Word
Author: Kay Pritchett
Publisher: Bucknell University Press
ISBN: 9780838755662
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
This goal allies her with poets from Spain's symbolist past, who acknowledge the insufficiency of language yet pursue elusive meaning. Canelo's poetry advances their struggle, since, through a method ecofeminist Carol Bigwood has called "nonlinguistic silent presencing," she is able to finesse an apparent fusion between nature and the word."--Jacket.

Early Modern Women's Writing and Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz
Author: Stephanie Merrim
Publisher: Vanderbilt University Press
ISBN: 9780826513380
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 374
Book Description
This book maps the field of seventeenth-century women's writing in Spanish, English, and French and situates the work of Sor Juana more clearly within that field. It holds up the multi-layered, proto-feminist writings of Sor Juana as a meaningful lens through which to focus the literary production of her female contemporaries. Merrim's book advances the integration of Hispanic women authors and women's issues into the panorama of early modern women's writing and opens up unexplored commonalities between Sor Juana and her sister writers. Early modern women writers whose works are explored include Marie de Gournay, Margaret Fell Fox, Catalina de Erauso, Maria de Zayas, Ana Caro, Mme de Lafayette, Anne Bradstreet, St. Teresa, and Margaret Lucas Cavendish. Merrim's study provides a full-bodied picture of the resources that the cultural and historical climates of the seventeenth century placed at the disposal of women writers, the manners in which women writers instrumentalized them, the building blocks and concerns of early modern women's writing, and the continuities between early modern and modern women's writing. Written in an engaging, clear manner, this innovative study will be of interest not only to Hispanists but also to scholars in early modern studies, women's studies, history, and comparative literature.

HOW DO THE SPANISH SPEAK ENGLISH
Author:
Publisher: La esquina del Álveo
ISBN: 8409461056
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
This book focuses on the major concerns and issues that Spanish English learners face. This was possible by focusing on the erroneous vocabulary and grammar structure similarities. Identifying these errors may benefit a significant percentage of exam students who write standard English examinations, workers whose jobs require communication in English, and people who enjoy travelling. The book is divided into two sections, i.e., grammar and vocabulary, which are used in sentences and explain where they contradict the Spanish language. These issues can be found at various levels of students due to the strong influence of not only the effect of false cognates (informal false friends), which is colloquial, but also that of interlingual homophones, homographs, and homonyms, which most of the time come from different word groups when an English word is translated from Spanish.

The Poetry of Pablo Neruda
Author: René de Costa
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674041445
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
The most comprehensive English-language collection of work ever by "the greatest poet of the twentieth century--in any language" (Gabriel Garcia Marquez) "In his work a continent awakens to consciousness." So wrote the Swedish Academy in awarding the Nobel Prize to Pablo Neruda, the author of more than thirty-five books of poetry and one of Latin America's most revered writers, lionized during his lifetime as "the people's poet." This selection of Neruda's poetry, the most comprehensive single volume available in English, presents nearly six hundred poems, scores of them in new and sometimes multiple translations, and many accompanied by the Spanish original. In his introduction, Ilan Stavans situates Neruda in his native milieu as well as in a contemporary English-language one, and a group of new translations by leading poets testifies to Neruda's enduring, vibrant legacy among English-speaking writers and readers today.
