  • Bulls and Bullfighting in Literature in English from 1920-36: O'brien's Mary Lavelle and Hemingway's Fiesta
    BULLS AND BULLFIGHTING IN LITERATURE IN ENGLISH FROM 1920-36: O'BRIEN'S MARY LAVELLE AND HEMINGWAY'S FIESTA Carmen Rueda Ramos This work deals with the symbolism two foreign wnters, who came to Spain looking for some kind of liberation,saw in bulljighting.Both of them wereparlicularly interested in thefígure of the bu11 as a victim of a tragedy. That is what made Kate O'Brien and Ernest Hemingway portray their rnain characters in Mary Lavelle and in Fiesta as symbolic bulls in their dramas of passion. The eroticism involved in bulljighting also has its equivalent in the dramasof both novels. In trying &oget to know Spain as "la piel de toro", they made their characters take part in this peculiar and characteristic ritual. Laín Entraigo, an important contempomy essayist on bullfighting, once de- scribed it by saying that "En su esencia el toreo es un encuentro entre el hombre y el toro bajo forma de lidia, en el cual hay desafio, juego, ostentación del poderío humano y muerte real (la del toro) y muerte posible (la del torero); por tanto drama." ' Entralgo explained in a few words what bullfighting is al1 about. However, the symbolism that lies behind it -represented by courage and strength- is exactly what foreign writers, who came to Spain before the Civil War, saw in it and wrote about. In trying to understand the country, its baditions and inconsistencies, its cruelties and beauties, they wrote about something typically Spanish, "la fiesta nacional", and gave different interpretations to it in their novels in connection with drama and passion.

  • Picasso and Dalí, Double Portrait in the Bullring of Art by PILAR PARCERISAS
    Picasso and Dalí, double portrait in the bullring of art By PILAR PARCERISAS Dalí’s relationship with Picasso is ambivalent and complex. On one hand, it is rooted in the admiration of Dalí towards the master, which starts after his visit to Picasso’s Parisi- an atelier in 1926. From that moment onwards, and up until 1970, when their relation- ship has completely dissolved, Dalí writes him letters and postcards, to which he never replies. However, Picasso did help Dalí pay for the costs of his trip to New York in 1934, for which Dalí always showed his gratitude publicly. But after the Spanish Civil War and the tragic ending of the Second World War with the nuclear bomb in 1945, Dalí wants to take a new artistic course. He starts measuring himself against Picasso: he sets out on an ideological confrontation, as well as an aes- thetical rivalry with him, which is aimed at finally becoming the master’s successor in the History of Art. In his lectures of the time, Dalí delivers diatribes against him, while he asks for a return to Raphael’s classicism in the nuclear age. This opens a new period in Dalí’s work, a sort of ‘nuclear mysticism’, where the atomic age and Spanish Catholi- cism merge into the significant work Mystical Manifesto (1951). The political context has changed. The Cold War determines the relations between Eu- rope, United States and the Soviet Union. The aesthetic of abstraction rules in the US while, in Europe, it’s all about informalism; so, on both sides of the Atlantic, the aesthet- ics are hegemonic.

  • Vibeke Final Version
    The Changing Place of Animals in Post-Franco Spain with particular reference to Bullfighting, Popular Festivities, and Pet-keeping. Vibeke Hansen A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology University of Essex October 2015 Abstract This is a thesis about the changing place of animals in post-Franco Spain, with particular reference to bullfighting, popular festivities, and pet-keeping. The thesis argues that since the ‘transition’ to democracy (1975-1982), which made Spain one of the most liberal social-democratic states in Europe, there have been several notable developments in human-animal relations. In some important respects, Spain has begun to shed its unenviable reputation for cruelty towards animals. Three important changes have occurred. First, bullfighting (corridas) has been banned in the Canary Islands (1991) and in Catalonia (2010). In addition, numerous municipalities have declared themselves against it. Second, although animals are still widely ‘abused’ and killed (often illegally) in local festivities, many have gradually ceased to use live animals, substituting either dead ones or effigies, and those that continue to use animals are subject to increasing legal restrictions. Third, one of the most conspicuous changes has been the growth in popularity of urban pet-keeping, together with the huge expansion of the market for foods, accessories and services - from healthy diets to cemeteries. The thesis shows that the character of these changing human-animal relations, and the resistance

The Alhambra and Generalife Gardens, known in the whole world, are just two examples of its huge touristic and cultural atractive, Granada is much more.

In the heart of this literary, poetic, artistic, cultural and millenial city, is located the Plaza de Toros de Granada (the Granada’s Bullring), a neomudejar jewel which has been hidden until now, offer you a complete experience for understanding the soul of Granada. A bullfight is an event in which a bullfighter on foot or on horseback challenges a numbers of bulls (one each time) in a enclosed area built for this purpose; it’s Corrida de Toros. La Corrida is performed by a TORERO (bullfighter) called bullring or arena who is on foot. All the bullfighters are TOREROS but not all the toreros are “Matador de Toros” or “Diestro”. Matador is a category acquired in a ceremony Bullfighting may be divided into three different kinds, depending on the Torero’s experience, the size of the bull and the use of horses : called “Alternativa”. From this moment onwards he can fight with the red cape and the sword. Each Matador has his own team called cuadrilla which includes 6 members: 2 lancers, 3 flagmen and 1 sword servant. Not all the bulls can fight in this kind of corrida, they must weigh at least 460 kg and be 4 years old (the bull fight regulation allows bulls between 4 and 6 years old).

  • Comparative Translations of Bullfighting Terms Used by R. Ford, J. Hay, A
    FACULTAD de FILOSOFÍA Y LETRAS DEPARTAMENTO de FILOLOGÍA INGLESA Grado en Estudios Ingleses TRABAJO DE FIN DE GRADO COMPARATIVE TRANSLATIONS OF BULLFIGHTING TERMS USED BY R. FORD, J. HAY, A. HUNTINGTON AND E. HEMINGWAY José Manuel Toquero Martín [Vº Bº del tutor y fecha] TUTORES: Dr. José Manuel Barrio Marco Dr. Belén López Arroyo 2015-2016 Abstract The present paper is a comparative analysis of translations of bullfighting terms from works belonging to four different authors who travelled to Spain and wrote about this spectacle as reporters. The purpose of this study is to obtain a glossary of terms belonging to the field and to see how those terms are translated nowadays. The following pages illustrate examples from which we have taken all the terms. Moreover, there is an explanation of the usage made by each author. We have taken as a reference the works of Richard Ford, John Hay, Archer Huntington, and Ernest Hemingway to see the differences among translations by quoting the context in which the words have been used. We will see that depending on the period, the translations of the words vary though they are mostly borrowings from Spanish that the authors used. Keywords Bullfighting, translations, Ford, Hay, Huntington, Hemingway Resumen Este artículo es un análisis comparativo de términos de tauromaquia pertenecientes a obras de cuatro autores diferentes que viajaron a España y escribieron acerca de este espectáculo como periodistas. El objetivo de esta investigación es obtener un glosario de términos relacionado con el campo y comparar las traducciones realizadas por dichos autores con las traducciones que nos ofrecen los diccionarios hoy en día.
