An Embodiment of a True Woman in Emilia Pardo Bazán’s “Las medias rojas” and “El encaje roto”

Short, Olivia Dorothy 01 May 2017 (has links)
This thesis seeks to investigate Emilia Pardo Bazán’s two short stories “Las medias rojas” and “El encaje roto” and how her works correlate with the “new woman” based upon the ideology “The Laugh of Medusa” by Hélène Cixous. I look at the two female characters and prove how Pardo Bazán created the “new woman.” The thesis pursues to display how the author changes how female characters are presented in literature by placing independent, strong, and hopeful women within her works.

Carmen de Burgos : la educación de la mujer y la literatura de viajes como género narrativo

Daganzo-Cantens, Esther A. 15 November 2006 (has links)
This study analyzes Carmen de Burgos’ European travel literature, and focuses on two themes: education and travel literature as a literary genre. An examination of her travel literature reveals two essential elements related to her view of education. The first is the influence that the European educational system had on her way of thinking, particularly with respect to the idea of tolerance, the practice of hygiene, and the important role of nature in education. The second is the development of her view of education as the foundation for the emancipation of women in Spain. Carmen de Burgos espoused the view that the reform of the Spanish educational system was the primary and foundational goal to further social, political and economic progress of women in Spain at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th Century. In the second part of this dissertation I support the theory that her travel literature was her main source to convey to Spanish women the need for social change. I do this by analyzing four properties that are considered characteristic of women’s travel literature: (1) the woman as a hero, (2) scientific authority of women, (3) feminine style, and (4) feminine content. I argue that Carmen de Burgos’s travel literature uses these properties to facilitate her access to women audiences and to assure that this audience regarded her as an authoritative voice.

La modernidad de los Versos libres de José Martí

de Armas, Emilio J. 04 April 2003 (has links)
The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the collection of poems Versos libres written by José Martí, as a cycle of literary expression closely connected with the origins and development of the modernist movement, as well as to the emergence of what has been later termed the modernism of Hispanic-American literature. The poetics of Versos libres is based on the liberating function attributed to them by their author, who was determined to reach with this cycle a level of expression where literary modernism and radical Americanism would be fully integrated, in order to enrich the communicative capabilities of poetic language, making it penetrate deep and complex realities: Man's conscience, psyche and creative effort, nature and history. This study of the Versos libres as a cycle, allows us to characterize the contribution of such a work to Hispanic-American poetry as a result of a literary praxis whose tone makes Versos libres a piece of work that, in its best-realized moments, surpasses the limits of the turn-of-the-century Hispanic-American poetry; thus laying a bridge towards modem poetry in the Spanish language.

Simbolismo e Hibridación: El Imaginario Poético en los Cuentos, Fragmentos y Poemas en Prosa de José Lezama Lima

Unknown Date (has links)
La orientación principal de este estudio se centra en la obra narrativa y poética del escritor José Lezama Lima (1910-1976) con el propósito de analizar cómo la sinergia de símbolos actúa en el universo imaginario lezamiano, y así poder explicar cómo sirve de base en la creación de imágenes, para obtener una mejor comprensión de la compleja cultura del Caribe. El enfoque medular recaerá sobre su obra narrativa pero sin excluir otros fragmentos importantísimos de poemas, ensayos y epístolas, que conforman su sistema poético. Nuestro argumento es que la obra de Lezama no es simplemente una aventura estética del lenguaje sino un compendio simbólico de escritos de carácter moral que busca asiduamente influenciar de manera positiva a los lectores de su comunidad. Al mismo tiempo, está investigación expone una característica de Lezama que no ha sido tratada por la crítica: su compromiso social, que dentro de un universo imaginario integrado por múltiples voces poéticas, símbolos y alusiones, permite una variedad de lecturas de los abismos más sombríos del ser humano y su circunstancia. Inicialmente estudiaremos la complejidad simbólica en la narrativa corta de Lezama con el propósito de exponer primero, la importancia del cuento dentro de la poética lezamiana y posteriormente, de demostrar que los cuentos de Lezama no son meros ejercicios verbales y estéticos como se ha indicado tantas veces, incluso insinuado por el mismo autor, sino que tienen una marcada preocupación social y humanista dentro de una época de gran tensión política en Cuba. Lezama expuso a través de sus historias la necesidad imperante de una participación constante del escritor como intelectual en la vida pública de su nación y de Hispanoamérica. En segundo lugar, analizaremos una selección de poemas en prosa de Lezama, Darío y Casal, pues nos interesa comprender cómo estos escritores establecen conexiones utilizando como medio el poema en prosa en Hispanoamérica. El valor de estos vínculos es que mantiene viva una tradición literaria que a su vez enlaza con siguientes generaciones de diversos matices culturales. Lo que aquí nos interesa es explicar la disposición híbrida del discurso narrativo de Lezama en Paradiso y las interesantes conexiones con el poema en prosa, para obtener así un mejor entendimiento de cómo funciona su universo narrativo. Posteriormente abordaremos el tema del compromiso social y la violencia en Lezama, asunto poco estudiado por la crítica que considera a este escritor cubano como un escapista de la realidad social de Cuba, declaración que intentamos refutar. Argumentaremos que la vocación de Lezama es en esencia la de un escritor e intelectual preocupado con los problemas de su comunidad y de su país lo cual se expone palmariamente a lo largo de toda su obra narrativa y poética. En las reflexiones finales del estudio nos interesa señalar que la literatura lezamiana no es simplemente una compilación de citas enciclopédicas sino un proceso de hibridación: conocimiento adquirido, asimilado y distribuido con significado social dentro de su contexto comunitario. / A Dissertation Submitted to the Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. / Summer Semester, 2008. / June 19, 2008. / Cuba, Simbolismo, Hibridación, Poema en prosa, Violencia, José Lezama Lima / Includes bibliographical references. / José Gomáriz, Professor Directing Dissertation; Robinson Herrera, Outside Committee Member; Brenda Cappuccio, Committee Member; Roberto G.

Social Intercourse and the Combustion Engine in Spanish Literature

Unknown Date (has links)
The dissertation is a study of the socio-cultural impact of the automobile in Spanish Literature: repression, economic progress, sexual liberation, fragmented identity, and abandonment. These socio-cultural issues are in the found in the following representative works: Réquiem por un campesino español (1953) by Ramón J. Sender, Cinco horas con Mario (1966) and Los santos inocentes (1981) both by Miguel Delibes, Rosa Montero´s Crónica del desamor (1979), Volverás a Región (1966) by Juan Benet, and Señas de identidad (1966) by Juan Goytisolo. In order to focus these issues a kaleidoscope of methods is employed: providing a historical context of the Franco regime and its repressive tactics; discussing and defining power and authority in conjunction with the automobile; showing the consequences of fragmented identity and abandonment asserted by the automobile. The dissertation also shows how the automobile is a micro-structure of both national and individual economic progress through the symbolism of the Seat 600. Given the automobile its due as a form of repression and symbol of the economic miracle of the 1960s, the dissertation also sheds light on the impact of the automobile as a tool for facilitating sexual relations and freedom in Spain in the mid 1970s. / A Dissertation submitted to the Department of Modern Languages in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. / Summer Semester, 2005. / October 24, 2003. / Sex, Fragmented Identity, Economic Progress, Franquismo, Spain, Cars, Repression / Includes bibliographical references. / Brenda Cappuccio, Professor Directing Dissertation; Virgil Suárez, Outside Committee Member; Delia Poey, Committee Member; William Cloonan, Committee Member; Ernest Rehder, Committee Member.
