When the Literary Mutates and the Digital Emboldens: Transformations in Spanish Electronic Literature of the 21St Century When the Literary Mutates and the Digital Emboldens: Transformations in Spanish Electronic Literature of the 21st Century By © 2017 Rafael Valadez Submitted to the graduate degree program in Spanish and Portuguese and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Dr. Margot Versteeg Co-Chair: Dr. Jorge Pérez Dr. Robert E. Bayliss Dr. Verónica Garibotto Dr. Marta Vicente Date Defended: 15 September 2017 The dissertation committee for Rafael Valadez certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: When the Literary Mutates and the Digital Emboldens: Transformations in Spanish Electronic Literature of the 21st Century Chair: Dr. Margot Versteeg Co-Chair: Dr. Jorge Pérez Date Approved: 15 September 2017 ii Abstract My dissertation analyzes Spanish-language electronic literature from Spain produced using new media technologies over the last 20 years. It more specifically looks at blogs, hypertext novels, hybrid publications that use digital codes needing scanning, and authorship. This project argues that new media technologies are exerting agency on both the physical and cyber world by affecting how literary texts are produced, presented to the reader, and embedded into everyday life. To achieve this, I propose looking at electronic texts through an Actor Network Theory approach as presented by John Law that treats all actors as interacting with various elements, both human and non-human, to create meaning. Supporting this approach is a combination of cyber-ecological and queer methodology that treats digital elements as having agency. In particular, I engage with scholars Stacy Alaimo and Jane Bennett to show that new technology has enabled the formation and visibility of original forms of literary and cultural expression through social media and traditional publishing avenues. Thus, the environment of digital works must be incorporated into any interpretation of the text as a whole. I employ this approach to better analyze a growing presence of individuals, cyber- intellectuals, engaged in social justice causes related to women’s, LGBT, and human rights who are able to network online via blogs and in the physical world to advance their activism. The analysis on hypertext novels provides a more complete understanding of the assemblages that construct meaning in digital works. Hybrid projects, where the content is partially in print and partially available on the Internet, serve to address the convergences of the digital and the physical worlds. Convergences such as these are also impacting the role of authorship in the production of texts in 21st century Spain. Digital components have become a part of everyday life and, subsequently, demand our attention as scholars in order to understand technology’s role in literature and, by extension, society and our lives. iii Acknowledgements For a project that is anchored on environments and the larger mesh of connections, I want to acknowledge the broader groups of individuals and communities within both academic and personal spheres that often overlap and coexist. I would like to thank the faculty, graduate students, and many other individuals affiliated with the Departments of Spanish and Portuguese and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. The academic openness and the camaraderie in both departments at The University of Kansas have made me a better scholar. Individually, I would like to first and foremost acknowledge Dr. Jorge Pérez and his unwavering support and patient advice over the years. His guidance, friendship, and leadership have made this project and the doctoral program at The University of Kansas an enjoyable experience. His mentorship has been invaluable and key to this project’s success. He is a role model I can look up to for years to come. I am extremely grateful to Dr. Margot Versteeg for her thoughtful reading and poignant interjections on the work I have completed. Her comments, suggestions, and questions have allowed me to engage my work in a better and more critical manner. A special thank you to Dr. Marta Vicente not only for agreeing to be a committee member, but, also, for allowing me to engage with some of the topics presented in this project while I was a student in her seminars. I would also like to recognize committee members Dr. Robert E. Bayliss and Dr. Verónica Garibotto for their generous participation and feedback. Lastly, but just as notably, thank you to my family: the family I was born into and the one I have carved out over the years. In particular, thank you to mom, dad, Fabiola, Olivia, Stephanie, Julia, Bryan, Michael, and Armando. Gracias. iv Table of Contents INTRODUCTION: BUILDING CONNECTIONS, ESTABLISHING LINKS ..................... 1 ELECTRONIC LITERATURE: A DEFINITION OF SORTS ................................................................... 9 HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENTS – THE INTERNET AND ACCESSIBILITY IN CONTEMPORARY SPAIN 14 DIGITAL CONVERGENCES AND A CALL FOR MORE LINKING ...................................................... 17 RISING INTEREST IN THE DIGITAL AND AN ISSUE WITH LITERARY GENERATIONS ...................... 21 AN EVOLVING FRAMEWORK ...................................................................................................... 33 E-SCAPES, ALL THINGS MATTER, AND ENVIRONMENTAL AGENCY ............................................ 34 QUEER: IDENTITY POLITICS AND METHODOLOGY ..................................................................... 42 THIS PROJECT’S CHAPTERS ........................................................................................................ 47 CHAPTER 1: EMERGING NETWORKS, ACTIVE BLOGGERS, AND 21ST CENTURY PUBLIC INTELLECTUALS .................................................................................................... 59 ZAFRA’S NETIANA, AN HEIR TO HARAWAY’S CYBORG ............................................................... 67 QUEER ACTIVISM AND BLOGGING ............................................................................................. 74 AN EARLY BLOG WITH A LASTING IMPACT: SÁEZ’ HARTZA ...................................................... 79 APPLES, ARITHMETIC, AND THE BIRTH OF A BLOG .................................................................... 87 ENGAGING THE PUBLIC AT A MORE CRITICAL LEVEL ................................................................. 93 KIKA FUMERO: THE REBEL ........................................................................................................ 97 CONCLUSIONS: BEYOND CONNECTING AND NETWORKING ...................................................... 104 CHAPTER 2: SPANISH HYPERTEXT NOVELS: NAVIGATING CONTAINED DISTRACTIONS ...................................................................................................................... 111 EARLY CONCEPTS OF FUTURE WRITING .................................................................................. 116 ORIGINS AND POSSIBILITIES: THE CASE OF TWO SPANISH HYPERTEXTS ................................. 118 SAFEGUARDING ELECTRONIC WORKS WHILE ESTABLISHING AN ELITE GROUP ...................... 121 AGENCY WITHIN HYPERTEXT .................................................................................................. 125 LANDOW’S HYPERTEXTUAL IDEAS IN SPAIN ............................................................................ 128 CHECA’S HYPERTEXT: INTERTEXTUAL RELATIONSHIPS .......................................................... 132 HYPERMEDIA OR WEBNOVELA: THE BLURRING OF BORDERS ................................................... 140 THE FUTURE IS WRITTEN IN HYPERTEXT ................................................................................. 148 CHAPTER 3: SCANNING THROUGH NEW FUSIONS: HOW NEW TECHNOLOGY HYBRIDIZED PUBLICATIONS AND PUBLIC SPACES ................................................. 152 A NOTE ON HYBRIDITY ............................................................................................................ 159 HYBRID LIVES, HYBRID EXPERIENCES ..................................................................................... 161 SCANNING: IN SEARCH OF FREEDOM, CREATING AWARENESS ................................................ 164 SCANNING: WHEN BORDERS DISSIPATE, WHAT IS REAL? ....................................................... 176 SCANNING: THROUGH THE CITY .............................................................................................. 186 A HYBRID IMMEDIATE FUTURE ............................................................................................... 189 v CHAPTER 4: THE AUTHOR IS DEAD, LONG LIVE THE AUTHOR: HOW TECHNOLOGY RECONFIGURED AUTHORSHIP .......................................................... 195 THE NEW DYNAMICS ............................................................................................................... 196 THE MODERN AUTHOR ............................................................................................................ 199 INTO THE DIGITAL ................................................................................................................... 207 THE “AUTHORS” ...................................................................................................................... 209 MARA’S EXPANDING UNIVERSE: A CHARACTER’S TRAVERSE INTO AUTHORSHIP .................. 214 LOLA VAN GUARDIA: MORE THAN A PSEUDONYM AND NOT QUITE A HETERONYM ............... 224 DYNAMIC COLLABORATION TO THE FOREFRONT ....................................................................

  • Lapp 1 the Victorian Pseudonym and Female Agency Research Thesis
    Lapp 1 The Victorian Pseudonym and Female Agency Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in English in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Anna Lapp The Ohio State University April 2015 Project Advisor: Professor Robyn Warhol, Department of English Lapp 2 Chapter One: The History of the Pseudonym Anonymity disguises information. For authors, disguised or changed names shrouds their circumstance and background. Pseudonyms, or pen names, have been famously used to disguise one’s identity. The word’s origin—pseudṓnymon—means “false name”. The nom de plume allows authors to conduct themselves without judgment attached to their name. Due to an author’s sex, personal livelihood, privacy, or a combination of the three, the pen name achieves agency through its protection. To consider the overall protection of the pseudonym, I will break down the components of a novel’s voice. A text is written by a flesh-and-blood, or actual, author. Second, an implied author or omnipresent figure of agency is present throughout the text. Finally, the narrator relates the story to the readers. The pseudonym offers freedom for the actual author because the author becomes two-fold—the pseudonym and the real person, the implied author and the actual author. The pseudonym can take the place of the implied author by acting as the dominant force of the text without revealing the personal information of the flesh-and-blood author. Carmela Ciuraru, author of Nom de Plume: A (Secret) History of Pseudonyms, claims, “If the authorial persona is a construct, never wholly authentic (now matter how autobiographical the material), then the pseudonymous writer takes this notion to yet another level, inventing a construct of a construct” (xiii-xiv).

  • Bidding Wars: Enactments of Expertise and Emotional Labor in the Spanish Competition for the European Capital of Culture 2016 Title
    BIDDING WARS: ENACTMENTS OF EXPERTISE AND EMOTIONAL LABOR IN THE SPANISH COMPETITION FOR THE EUROPEAN CAPITAL OF CULTURE 2016 TITLE By Alexandra Oancă Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Professor Jean-Louis Fabiani Professor Daniel Monterescu CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2017 I hereby state that this dissertation contains no material accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions. The thesis contains no materials previously written and/or published by another person, except where appropriate acknowledgment is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Budapest, May 2017 Alexandra Oancă CEU eTD Collection In the loving memory of Marcel Oancă (1961-2016) CEU eTD Collection Abstract Competition appears to be pervasive. Nowadays, it is portrayed as the necessary philosophy of socio-economic life, seemingly driving both companies and cities, to engage in an all-out competitive struggle for resources. However, competition between cities is neither ‘natural’ nor a ‘macro-structural effect’ of contemporary urbanism and state restructuring but a dynamic and relational ensemble of socio-spatial policy processes that connect and disconnect cities, scales and wider policy networks. For European cities, the engineering of inter-urban competition is a state-led political and economic project: it is not a coherent project of the EU but a partial assemblage of different policy processes that have uneven consequences and that are contestable and contested. Instead of looking at inter-urban competition and competitive bidding solely as phenomena that are reflecting and reinforcing class interests, state projects or hegemonic ideologies, it is more productive to include them into a relational and processual analysis and focus on how these processes of inter-city rivalries are actually unfolding and on the specific labor practices that make them possible.

  • Spain Diversity Climate Notes
    Spain Diversity Climate Notes *** WELCOME TO SPAIN The Diversity Network’s Country Diversity Notes provide readily accessible summaries of country- specific information on potential challenges for students who are from backgrounds traditionally underrepresented in study abroad programs. The notes were created to facilitate the ability of study abroad professionals to find a good country fit for prospective study abroad students who are uncertain of how they will be received abroad because of their race, ethnicity, sexuality, gender, religion or disability. The Spain diversity note, below, features a country overview as well as information pertinent to the climate of respect that U.S. students of diverse backgrounds can reasonably expect while living in the country. It also offers bulleted information noting facts that may directly relate to student experiences in the country. Links for students to pursue additional information resources on the various topics are also offered. While the note provides a bird’s-eye view of diversity matters in the country as they pertain to U.S. students, the country information found in the note is not exhaustive. Advisors should use the information contained below in collaboration with faculty and staff who have experience in the particular country, returned study abroad students who are able and feel comfortable to discuss their own observations of diversity in the country, and the advisor’s own knowledge. COUNTRY OVERVIEW Spain is the third most popular destination for U.S. study abroad students. Engulfing its Iberian neighbor Portugal, Spain has coasts along the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, with the Strait of Gibraltar to the south separating it from Morocco.

    EL PAISAJE Y EL PATRIMONIO CULTURAL DE LAS RIBERAS DEL TAJO EN EXTREMADURA María del Mar Lozano Bartolozzi Universidad de Extremadura DOI: 10.17075/pvpcr.2021.002 INTRODUCCIÓN Las cuencas de los ríos son espacio y fuente de recursos que han dado lugar a un gran número de elementos patrimoniales testigos de nuestra civilización e iden- tidad. Como consecuencia, han configurado determinados paisajes culturales1. En este escenario, una parte de las investigaciones que desarrolla el grupo de investigación que yo coordino en la Universidad de Extremadura2 versa sobre el paisaje y el patrimonio de las riberas de los ríos Tajo y Guadiana. Para ello, ha sido importante haber obtenido tres proyectos de investigación en convocatorias competitivas nacionales3 que tienen como espacio de laboratorio los citados ríos y sus cuencas fluviales en la región extremeña. Así mismo, hemos mantenido el compromiso de transferencia de resultados con la celebración de seminarios cien- tíficos internacionales, cursos y ciclos de conferencias a los que hemos invitado a investigadores que tienen relación conceptual o metodológica con nosotros para intercambiar experiencias. Hemos publicado artículos y libros, algunos colecti- vos, y hemos presentado ponencias, en congresos nacionales e internacionales, de historia del arte, ingeniería, arquitectura, desarrollo rural y tutela del patrimonio. Se añade la relación con otros grupos de investigación y sus proyectos4. 1 Quiero agradecer al doctor Carlos Nárdiz y al Consello da Cultura Galega la invitación a participar en estas jornadas sobre la puesta en valor del patrimonio cultural de los ríos en Galicia. 2 Las personas que hemos colaborado en los proyectos nacionales somos: Esther Abujeta Martín, Marina Bargón García, Moisés Bazán de Huerta, Javier Cano Ramos, Miguel Centellas Soler, Josefa Cortés, María del Carmen Diez González, Alberto Flores Galán, Nuria María Franco Polo, María del Mar Lozano Bartolozzi, José Maldonado Escribano, Vicente Méndez Hernán y Pedro Plasencia-Lozano.

  • Electronic Zen
    ELECTRONIC ZEN: The Alternate Video Generation By Jud Yalkut Copyright, 1984, Jud Yalkut. "The light-flower of heaven and earth fills all the thousand spaces. But also the light-flower of the individual body passes through heaven and covers the earth. Therefore, as soon as the light is circulating, heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, are all circulating with it at the same time. To concentrate the seed-flower of the human body above in the eyes, that is the great key of the human body." - THE SECRET OF THE GOLDEN FLOWER. "Zen Meditation is purely a subjective experience completed by a concentration which holds the inner mind calm, pure and serene. And yet Zen meditation produces a special psychological state based on the changes in the electroencephalogram. Therefore, Zen meditation influences not only the psychic life but also the physiology of the brain." - AKIRA KASAMATSU AND TOMIO HIRAI ("An Electroen- cephalographic Study on the Zen Meditation (Zazen)") in ALTERED STATES OF CONSCIOUSNESS (Charles Tart, editor). "We are not yet aware that telepathy is conveyed through the resonance factors of the mind... The electromagnetic vibration of the head might lead the way to Electronic Zen." - NAM JUNE PAIK. ELECTRONIC ZEN: THE ALTERNATE VIDEO GENERATION PREFACE Although the medium of television has existed in the American home since the post-war period, it has only been since the advent of portable video recorders in the late sixties that a meaningful dissemination of electronics communication technology has permitted the two-way interf low of information and vision exchange. This predominantly half-inch video technology engendered the emergence of alternate video innovators who have gradually mastered the parameters and circuitry of equipment woefully unstable as com pared to the hardware used daily by the vast television broadcasting networks.
