The sentimental novel Cárcel de Amor by Diego de San Pedro was hugely popular in its time both in Spain and in other parts of Europe, spawning at least twenty editions in Spanish, nine bilingual versions, and eighteen translations between 1492 and 1675. The purpose of this study is to examine the seemingly, and oft criticized, varied nature of the sentimental and political discourse in the novel to demonstrate how San Pedro used them to create unity of structure and theme. In addition I analyze the effects of the author's implementation of metanarrative strategies on the relationship between structure and theme. Cárcel was written during a period of great social and political turmoil in Castile, and San Pedro uses the sentimental and political material of the work to paint a reflection of the society in which he lived. He demonstrates that the chivalric ideals of courtly love and honor based on virtue, values upon which the nobility based their collective identity, are no longer viable in his culture because they have come to be devoid of the beauty they originally embodied. In their place one finds a growing obsession with honor that is a construction of appearances with little regard for virtue. As the protagonist Leriano, who represents the perfection of these ideals, comes into conflict with the king and other courtiers, the reader realizes that the old ideals and the new reality are completely incompatible. San Pedro also uses several metanarrative strategies to draw the reader into the fictional world in order to force him to confront the same crisis that Leriano and the Auctor character face as they determine that their value system cannot survive in the false, double-dealing society in which they live. He uses these same techniques to underscore the fictional quality of the "reality" that members of that society create for themselves. San Pedro effectively uses both the sentimental and political discourse of the work to create a realistic picture of Castilian society's moral decay in the fifteenth century.

Estos códigos surgieron para establecer un sistema penal eficaz, intentando encauzar el ejercicio de castigar y alargar paralelamente el brazo estatal a las regiones más lejanas del Imperio a través del aparato penal-carcelario. En este sentido, nuestro objetivo principal fue averiguar cómo se dio el proceso de montaje de la red carcelaria en la Provincia de San Pedro del Rio Grande del Sur, entre 1850 y 1888. La opción por un enfoque macro ha sido por intereses teórico-metodológicos concretos, en primer lugar, para huir de la sombra del panóptico proyectada por Foucault en su citado Vigilar y Castigar, abriéndose así un campo abonado de análisis sobre las instituciones punitivas más modestas pero que, ni por ello, dejaran de aprisionar y castigar menos a lo largo del tiempo. En segundo lugar, la elección por el conjunto, privilegiando pequeñas cárceles, nos permitió observar, además, la circularidad de las informaciones carcelarias; las preocupaciones y la mentalidad que guió la acción de muchos presidentes provinciales acerca de la construcción de la malla de establecimientos penales; los poderes a los cuales respondían tanto la aplicación, como las formas de encarcelamiento; el cotidiano prisional, etc. En el caso investigado, se constató que, a pesar de la amplitud de la reforma penitenciaria de cimonónica y del interés demostrado por muchos políticos, lo que realmente pesó a los administradores públicos fue la posibilidad de disponer de espacios más seguros para aprisionar y castigar antes que lanzar mano de cárceles acordes con los principios correccionalistas, revelando, asimismo, la continuidad de un pensamiento utilitarista que remontaba a los reformadores del setecientos que nada tenía que ver con el corpus ideológico discutido en los Congresos Penitenciarios durante el siglo XIX.

Title from PDF of title page. / Document formatted into pages; contains 90 pages. / Thesis (M.A.)--University of South Florida, 2001. / Includes bibliographical references. / Text (Electronic thesis) in PDF format. / ABSTRACT: My thesis explores how discourse and material practices have created agoraphobia, the fear of public places. This psychological disorder predominates among women. Throughout much of Western history, women have been encouraged to stay home for their safety and for the safety of society. I argue that agoraphobic women have internalized this discourse, expressing fears of being in public or being alone without a companion to support and protect them; losing control over their minds or their bodies; and endangering or humiliating themselves. Therapeutic discourse also has created agoraphobia by naming it, categorizing the emotions and behaviors associated with it, and describing the characteristics of agoraphobics. / The material practice of therapy reinforces this discourse. Meanwhile, practices such as rape and harassment reinforce the dominant discourse on women&softsign;s safety. I survey psychological literature, beginning with the naming of agoraphobia in 1871, to explain why the disorder is now diagnosed primarily in women. I examine nineteenth-century discourse that told women they belonged at home while men controlled the public domain. In 1871, the Paris Commune revolt epitomized the fear of women publicly out of control. I return to Paris a century later for a reading of the novel Certificate of Absence, in which Sylvia Molloy explores identity through the eyes of a woman who might be labeled agoraphobic. / I ask whether homebound women are resisting or retreating from a hostile world. Instead of seeing agoraphobia only as a personal problem, people should question why so many women fear themselves and the world outside their home.My methodology includes an analysis of nineteenth-century texts as well as current media, prose, and poetry. I also support my arguments with material from professional journals and nonfiction books in different disciplines. Common to feminist research, an interdisciplinary approach was needed to situate a psychological disorder within a social context. / System requirements: World Wide Web browser and PDF reader. / Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Cette thèse propose d’étudier la trajectoire des femmes incarcérées dans la prison péruvienne Chorrillos I à Lima et d’analyser l’influence des inégalités sociales et du parcours de vie des détenues sur les dynamiques carcérales de cet établissement. Les entretiens menés avec les détenues révèlent un ensemble de similitudes dans leur parcours avant l’incarcération, parmi lesquelles ressortent des schémas de domination genrée, des situations de précarité socioéconomique, des expériences de mères célibataires, ainsi que la recherche de stratégies de survie. Le croisement de l’étude de leur trajectoire et de l’analyse des rapports sociaux, ethniques et genrés permet de comprendre leurs formes d’adaptation au milieu carcéral ainsi que les relations qui lient l’ensemble des acteurs en présence, pour dévoiler les ressorts d’un univers carcéral particulier. / This thesis studies the trajectory of incarcerated women in the Peruvian prison Chorrillos I in Lima and analyzes the influence of social inequalities and detainees’ life-paths on the dynamics of this prison. Interviews with the inmates reveal a range of similarities in their trajectories before incarceration, from gendered domination schemes, socio-economic insecurity and life as single-mothers, to the search for survival strategies. Cross-examining the study of their trajectories with analyses of social, ethnic and gender relations provides an understanding of strategies used by these women to adapt to the prison environment, as well as the relationships between all the actors, and reveals the specific characteristics of a particular prison universe. / Esta tesis propone estudiar la trayectoria de las mujeres encarceladas en el establecimiento penitenciario peruano Chorrillos I en Lima, y analizar la influencia de las desigualdades sociales y del recorrido de vida de las internas sobre las dinámicas carcelarias de este penal. Las entrevistas realizadas con las internas revela un conjunto de similitudes en su trayectoria antes del encarcelamiento, dentro de las cuales sobresalen esquemas de dominación de género, situaciones de precariedad socioeconómica, experiencias de madres solteras, así como la búsqueda de estrategias de supervivencia. El cruce del estudio de su trayectoria con el análisis de las relaciones sociales, étnicas y de género permite comprender sus formas de adaptación al ámbito carcelario y las relaciones que vinculan al conjunto de los actores, para develar los mecanismos de un universo carcelario particular.

Actualmente, existe un problema critico de hacinamiento de cárceles en el Perú, ya que estas no se dan a abasto para albergar a todos los internos. Lo cual está ocasionando que estos supuestos internos rehabilitados al salir de las cárceles, vuelvan a cometer delitos ocasionando que reingresen a estos establecimientos. La falta de un espacio adecuado para su pronta rehabilitación es evidente en el país, ya que las estadísticas de delincuencia van en ascenso y las edificaciones de los establecimientos penitenciarios existentes carecen de los recursos y espacio para una adecuada rehabilitación. Es por esto que la presente investigación tiene como proyecto un centro de diagnóstico y rehabilitación tipo A para el adulto joven en Pachacamac, que se caracterizará por utilizar la arquitectura como una herramienta complementaria de rehabilitación para así lograr la mejora en la rehabilitación y pronta reinserción social de los internos. / Currently, there is a critical problem of overcrowding in prisons in Peru, since they are not sufficient to house all inmates. Which is causing these supposed inmates rehabilitated upon leaving the prisons, to commit crimes again causing them to re-enter these establishments. The lack of adequate space for their prompt rehabilitation is evident in the country, since crime statistics are on the rise and the buildings of existing prisons lack the resources and space for adequate rehabilitation. That is why the present research project is a Diagnosis and Social Rehabilitation Center type A for young adults in Pachacamac, which will be characterized by using architecture as a complementary rehabilitation tool in order to achieve improvement in rehabilitation and prompt social reintegration of the inmates. / Tesis
