KAGAN Johns Hopkins University [email protected] Recepción: 18 de diciembre de 2009 / Revisión: 10 de mayo de 2010 Aceptación: 4 de julio de 2010 / Publicación: diciembre de 2010 ABSTRACT At the time of war of 1898, the image of Spain in the United States has been traditionally seen as one much influenced by the Black Legend. Notwithstanding the importance of this negative image of Spain, this article suggests that even in that critical historical period there existed another line of thinking that viewed Spain and its culture in a much more positive light. Focusing primarily on topics relating to architecture and art, it further underscores the extent to which Americans of that era sought to incorpo- rate elements of that culture into their own. Keywords: Spain, United States, International Relations, Perceptions, Stereotypes, Culture, Art, Architecture, Hispanism, 1890-1920s. Hispanomanía en Estados Unidos: pertenencia cultural y apropiación del patrimonio cultural de España, ca. 1890- ca. 1930 RESUMEN Tradicionalmente se ha visto la imagen de España en los Estados Unidos durante la guerra de 1898 como muy influida por la llamada ‘leyenda negra’. Pese a la importancia de esta imagen negativa de España, este artículo sugiere que incluso en aquel crítico período histórico existió otra corriente de pen- samiento que veía a España y su cultura de una forma mucho más positiva.

  • 1 Unit 9: Culture Reading: Ethnicity Difference Between
    Unit 9: Culture Reading: Ethnicity Difference Between Ethnicity and Race Very few of us accurately describe the difference between ethnicity and race, simply because we tend to lump them into the same definition. While the dictionary can represent each of these words to be highly similar, there are differences. Ethnicity is not just a person’s race. We can say that a Caucasian is white, but that doesn’t describe his ethnicity. If we lined up a Caucasian from Ireland, Israel and Canada in a photograph, it would be difficult to discern from which country each person originates. Yet, if we gave them appropriate items from their culture, it becomes easier to determine their country of origin. Ethnicity is about tradition, learned behavior and customs. It is about learning where you come from, and celebrating the traditions and ideas that are part of that region. At one time it was easy to tell one’s ethnicity, but as the global conglomeration offered more choice and change (as well as borrowing styles and ideas from other cultures), it has become impossible to identify ethnicity based solely on distinctive features. Ethnicity gives us room to change because we can reject our own and embrace another. You can move from one region to another and assimilate your beliefs, actions and customs to identify with that ethnic orientation. You cannot do the same with race. Race is your biologically engineered features. It can include skin color, skin tone, eye and hair color, as well as a tendency toward developing certain diseases. It is not something that can be changed or disguised.

Publication Date 1951-09-01 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California AMERIUAN ANTHROPOLOGIST VOL. 53 JULY-SEPTEMBER, 1951 No.3 REPORT ON AN ETHNOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE OF SPAINl By GEORGE M. FaSTEn. I EGINNING about the year 1500, and for a period of over three centuries, B Spanish culture was forcibly exported and brought into contact, in a planned and guided manner, with a variety of very different cultures, particu­ larly American Indian and Philippine. The complete, thorough, and internally consistent philosophy of Spanish conquest and rule marks it off as quite a different thing from colonizing activities of other European countries of the same period. This philosophy was instrumental in producing a carefully con­ ceived and meticulously planned colonial policy which had as its goal the extension of Spanish culture and culture values to all parts of the world where it was physically possible. One result of the Spanish venture has been a fortuitous combination of circumstances which offers unequalled opportunities for the student of culture processes. In a sense, Spain and the areas she dominated, in their historical, geographical, and cultural aspects, afford a near-laboratory setup for certain types of social science research. To a degree rarely characteristic of the raw materials of the social sciences, significant factors are relatively constant. The effect of these constant factors can be observed over a long period of time under varied cultural and geographical conditions, and the end results ana­ lyzed.

  • SPAN 3325 – the Way of Saint James: an Epic Trail to the Essence of Spain
    SPAN 3325 – The Way of Saint James: An Epic Trail to the Essence of Spain Instructor: Dr. Maria Paz Pintané Location: Spain Dates: May 6 - June 1, 2019 Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela has deeply influenCed the spiritual and physiCal landsCapes of Spain and has remained until today as a major heritage site. Having this in mind, this course explores, from a multidisCiplinary point of view, the origins, development, and influenCe of the Way of Saint James in the life and Culture of Spain. Through a Close examination of Cultural, literary, historical, Cultural, and religious issues, we will learn how the Cult of Saint James and the Way itself has Contributed to shape Spanish national identity. The program will take place in Spain during four weeks and it will include a walking trip (approx. 250 miles) along several sections of the medieval French Way, specifically from Pamplona to Santo Domingo de la Calzada and from Ponferrada to Santiago de Compostela. Additionally, students will visit several major Spanish Cities relevant to the history of the Way (Pamplona, Logroño, Burgos, Leon, Santiago, and A Coruña). The course starts and concludes in Madrid. Thus, students will walk through five of the autonomous communities that configure the map of Spain and experienCe first-hand the commonalities and differences among them. During the course, the Way will be the classroom where students will learn about the socio-historical, religious, and cultural significance of this medieval tradition. Also, they will attend talks in Cathedrals, monasteries, Castles, anCient pilgrim’s hospitals, and museums. After the daily hikes, when writing in their diaries, students will reflect about their experience on the Way keeping in mind two concepts and processes: “Liminality” and/or “Communitas.” Ashley and Deegan in “Being a Pilgrim” write: “pilgrimage is a liminal experienCe […] that takes us outside our Customary routines and identities.
