Literatura comparada: relaciones literarias hispano-inglesas (siglo XX)
Author: Emilio Barón PalmaPublisher: Universidad Almería
ISBN: 9788482401508
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : es
Pages : 142
Book Description
Los textos aquí reunidos proceden en su práctica totalidad del ciclo de conferencias "Literatura comparada. Relaciones literarias hispano-inglesas (Siglo XX)" que, organizado por el Grupo de Investigación "Poesía y Traducción", en colaboración con el Vicerrectorado de Investigación de la Universidad de Almería y con ayuda de la Consejería de Educación y Ciencia de la Junta de Andalucía, se celebró en la Universidad de Almería los días 29 de abril, 5 y 6 de mayo de 1997. Este volumen (como los dos anteriores en esta serie, Imagen de la mujer en la literatura inglesa, 1997, y Traducir poesía. Luis Cernuda, traductor, 1998), sin embargo, no es una mera recopilación de actas, ya que las conferencias fueron posteriormente reelaboradas por los autores para su publicación como partes de un libro, en el que, asimismo, se incluyen algunos trabajos no presentados entonces. Hemos agrupado los estudios seleccionados procurando guardar, en lo posible, un orden cronológico de acuerdo con los autores y temas que abordan.
Literatura y transdiscursividad
Author: The Polyphonic Machine
Author: Niall H.D. GeraghtyPublisher: University of Pittsburgh Press
ISBN: 082298637X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Focusing on the work of the Argentine authors César Aira, Marcelo Cohen, and Ricardo Piglia, The Polyphonic Machine conducts a close analysis of the interrelations between capitalism and political violence in late twentieth-century Argentina. Taking a long historical view, the book considers the most recent Argentine dictatorship of 1976–1983 together with its antecedents and its after-effects, exploring the transformations in power relations and conceptions of resistance which accompanied the political developments experienced throughout this period. By tracing allusive fragments of Argentine political history and drawing on a range of literary and theoretical sources Geraghty proposes that Aira, Cohen and Piglia propound a common analysis of Argentine politics during the twentieth century and construct a synergetic philosophical critique of capitalism and political violence. The book thus constitutes a radical reappraisal of three of the most important authors in contemporary Argentine literature and contributes to the philosophical and historical understanding of the most recent Argentine military government and their systematic plan of state terrorism.
Peripheral (post) Modernity
Author: Eleni KefalaPublisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9780820486390
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Are there such things as peripheral modernity and postmodernity? This groundbreaking book focuses on the notions of modernity and postmodernity in two countries that never before have been studied comparatively: Argentina and Greece. It examines theories of the postmodern and the problems involved in applying them to the hybrid and sui generis cultural phenomena of the «periphery». Simultaneously it offers an exciting insight into the work of Jorge Luis Borges, Ricardo Piglia, Dimitris Kalokyris and Achilleas Kyriakidis, whose syncretist aesthetics are symptomatic of the mixing up of different and often opposed aesthetic principles and traditions that occur in «peripheral» locations. This book will be very useful to scholars and students of Latin American, Modern Greek and comparative literature as well as to those interested in Borges studies.

The Lady in the Looking Glass
Author: Virginia WoolfPublisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 014197124X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 64
Book Description
'People should not leave looking-glasses hanging in their rooms any more than they should leave open cheque books or letters confessing some hideous crime.' 'If she concealed so much and knew so much one must prize her open with the first tool that came to hand - the imagination.' Virginia Woolf's writing tested the boundaries of modern fiction, exploring the depths of human consciousness and creating a new language of sensation and thought. Sometimes impressionistic, sometimes experimental, sometimes brutally cruel, sometimes surprisingly warm and funny, these five stories describe love lost, friendships formed and lives questioned. This book includes The Lady in the Looking Glass, A Society, The Mark on the Wall, Solid Objects and Lappin and Lapinova.
