Emigration, Tourism, and Imperialist Nostalgia in the Work of Spanish UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Imagining Cuba: Emigration, Tourism, and Imperialist Nostalgia in the Work of Spanish Women Writers and Photographers (1992-2015) A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Languages and Literatures by Jennifer Linda Monti 2019 © Copyright by Jennifer Linda Monti 2019 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Imagining Cuba: Emigration, Tourism, and Imperialist Nostalgia in the Work of Spanish Women Writers and Photographers (1992-2015) by Jennifer Linda Monti Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Languages and Literatures University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor María Teresa de Zubiaurre, Chair The year 1992 marked a turning point for Spain. The Barcelona Olympics, the Seville World Exposition, and the Quincentennial of Columbus’ first voyage to the Americas kickstarted a renaissance for the Iberian country, as it entered into a globalized economy. Though the 1992 celebrations were criticized by many for their problematic glorification of Spain’s colonial history, this particular year also gave birth to a newfound interest in Cuba, one of Spain’s most precious colonies, lost in 1898. Literary texts, films, documentaries, photographs, and art focused on the Caribbean island began circulating in Spain in an unprecedented manner, as artists and the public alike showed a growing enthusiasm towards Cuba, its history, and its culture. ii By analyzing novels, theater, a tourist guidebook, a film, and two photographic series, this interdisciplinary and transatlantic dissertation studies the image of Cuba promoted through the work of Spanish women writers (Carme Riera, Magrarita Aritzeta, María Teresa Álvarez, Ángel Aymar i Ragolta, Isabel Segura) and photographers (Cristina García Rodero, and Isabel Muñoz) between 1992 and 2015. I maintain that though conceived with good intentions, the literary and cultural productions discussed herein offer a simplistic, stereotypical, and at times fetishizing image of Cuba. Most works fail at openly criticizing Spain’s dark colonial history and choose, instead, to grant Spanish women a voice, an agency, and a subjectivity, wishing to rescue them from historical oblivion. While significant, this “gendered choice” is nevertheless paradoxical, for it obscures the role that Western women, alongside men, played in the colonization process and in the oppression of others. The westernized images of Cuba offered by the writers and photographers in this project, as well as the omission of Spain’s colonial actions, support what scholars call imperialist nostalgia—the longing for a past whose brutality has been concealed and forgotten. The works that I study are the offspring of this particular form of nostalgia, which finds its truest expression in the problematic clichés and images used, during the last thirty years, in Spanish literature and photographs focused on Cuba, as well as in Spain’s new forms of economic colonialism on the island. iii This dissertation of Jennifer Linda Monti is approved.

  • La Construcción Del Yo En El Exilio: El Público Argentino De Rosa Chacel E
    ROMANCE STUDIES 2020, VOL. 38, NO. 2, 80–92 https://doi.org/10.1080/02639904.2020.1794602 La Construcción del yo en el Exilio: El público argentino de Rosa Chacel E. Helena Houvenaghel ICON (Institute for Cultural Inquiry), Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands ABSTRACT KEYWORDS The identity-building process of exiled republican writers moves in Rosa Chacel; republican a field of tension between Spain and the host country. The self-image exile; identity-building; Rosa Chacel crafted in the short essays published during her dialogue; cultural hybridity; Argentinian exile (1940–1959) and collected in the volume La lectura Europe/America es secreto (1989) exemplifies that tension. On the one hand, there is PALABRAS CLAVE a strong sense of identification with Ortega y Gasset’s generation and Rosa Chacel; exilio with the Spanish past. On the other, the scene from where the essays republicano; construcción are enunciated is situated in the Argentinian context of the present: identitaria; diálogo; hibridez based on the reading experiences of the day in Argentina, a dialogic cultural; dinámica Europa/ relationship with the Argentinian public is created. Contrary to what América the title of the collection La literatura es secreto suggests — a reference to the solitary character of reading — the dialogic dimension of reading is reflected in the essays and becomes the mechanism through which Chacel rebuilds — between the Spain of the past and the Argentina of the present — her exiled self. RESUMEN La construcción identitaria de los escritores republicanos exiliados se mueve en un campo de tensión entre España y el nuevo país de acogida. La auto-imagen construida por Rosa Chacel en sus ensayos breves publi­ cados en el exilio argentino (1940-1959) y recopilados en el volumen La lectura es secreto (1989) ejemplifica dicha tensión.

TJCII was launched in 19961. In March 1998 the committee members and a group of in- tercessors made a prayer journey to Spain, visiting Granada, Cordoba and Toledo. From this time the TJCII leadership knew that one day we would have to address the history and sufferings of the Marranos. An explanatory note is needed about the terminology.

  • Literature, 1898–1936 K
    LITERATURE, 1898–1936 K. M. Sibbald, McGill University This survey covers the years 2010 and 2011 1. General, Literary and Cultural History After some intense critical activity in recent years, there is a certain lull in production. Rather than hurrying into print yet another memoir for immediate consumption, there is evidence of deeper reflection driven by inventive eclecticism rather than circumstantial interest, and this welcome multifariousness is examined in what follows. Joan Brown, Confronting Our Canons. Spanish and Latin American Studies in the 21st Century, Lewisburg, Bucknell U.P., 2010, 247 pp., asserts the need to define a literary canon for Hispanic Studies and frames her argument within primarily US data and an instructive blend of quantitive analysis and qualitative interpretation that points to unfortunate gaps with regard to gender, geography, politics, and linguistic research, ending with a call for a flexible, core-based canon. Doing a sterling job at presenting a rather different version from that usually given, Christine Arkinstall, Histories, Culture, and National Identity: Women Writing Spain, 1877–1984, Lewisburg U.P., 2009, 250 pp., examines literary contributions by women authors to the Liberal project in the 20th c., analysing in separate sections Rosario de Acuña’s plays, Amor a la patria, Tribunales de venganza, and El Padre Juan within the Liberal debate proper, Ángela Figueroa’s poetic anthologies Belleza cruel and Toco la tierra: Letanías to exemplify how she subverted the official discourse by imbuing Catholic iconography with new meanings designed to expose the cruelty of the Civil War and the ensuing dictatorship, and using current theories on culture, memory, and trauma to explore how Rosa Chacel’s novels Barrio de maravillas and Acrópolis propose education and social commitment to ensure a democratic Spain for a new generation; while the same author in ‘Making Free-thinking Spain: The Sociopolitical Poetics of Belén de Sárraga (c.

    UN SEMBLANTE: ROSA CHACEL POR CLARA JANÉS María del Carmen Expósito Montes (Universidad de Jaén . Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educación. Departamento Lenguas y Culturas Mediterráneas) [email protected] RESUMEN: En nuestro modelo de sociedad, un potente agente de socialización lo constituyen las artes en general, y como tal, la literatura autobiográfica de la que se hace eco Rosa Chacel configura en las letras españolas la transición hacia un peldaño más por el que luchan conjuntamente lo masculino y lo femenino. Reforzar ambas capacidades e integrarlas en el ser humano fue tarea académica y cultural que discurrió a lo largo del círculo literario chaceliano, intentando aceptar y comprender ambos modelos para llegar a un fin común: la dispersión de su idea de la vida narrada, contada, ficcionalizada y teatralizada en su densa obra literaria en contenido más que en cantidad. Para intentar esclarecer en qué contexto se situaba Rosa Chacel frente a la vorágine que se avecinaba por la llegada de las vanguardias en España, Clara Janés, poeta intuitiva y sintetizadora que canaliza su yo femenino, no lejano a lo que pretendía su maestra Rosa Chacel ha protagonizado varias entrevistas con un encanto fascinante, en las que camina a través de la literatura chaceliana y concede claves que solo ella conoce con respecto a su personalidad como autora creativa, discípula en el arte de la vida y por supuesto amiga hasta su lecho de muerte, representación que regaló a sus lectores en un positivo y alentador artículo. A través de la maestra de la mágica poesía de Clara Janés, descubrimos a la prosista más poética Rosa Chacel, tesoro único y eslabón perdido dentro del lírico Veintisiete mayoritariamente masculino.

  • The Splintering of Spain
    This page intentionally left blank ii ii The Splintering of Spain This book explores the ideas and culture surrounding the cataclysmic civil war that engulfed Spain from 1936 to 1939. It features specially commissioned articles from leading historians in Spain, Britain and the USA which examine the complex interaction of national and local factors, contributing to the shape and course of the war. They argue that the ‘splintering of Spain’ resulted from the myriad cultural clea- vages of society in the 1930s. Thus, this book views the civil war less as a single great conflict between two easily identifiable sets of ideas, social classes or ways of life, than historians have previously done. The Spanish tragedy, at the level of everyday life, was shaped by many tensions, both those that were formally political and those that were to do with people’s perceptions and understanding of the society around them.

  • The Diary of a Sceptic (Pdf)
    TERESA GIMÉNEZ BARBAT THE DIARY OF A SCEPTIC The Diary of a Sceptic Teresa Giménez Barbat (Introduction by Albert Boadella) Translated by Sandra Killeen © Teresa Giménez Barbat, 2018 © Introduction by Albert Boadella, 2018 © Translated by Sandra Killeen, 2018 © Cover illustration by José María Beroy, 2018 Editorial coordination, page layout and front cover: Editorial Funambulista INTRODUCTION I’m going to try and write as comprehensibly and naturally as Te- resa does in the pages that follow this prologue. The first thing that springs to mind is that this is a book that takes numerous risks. Its diary format is a risk on the current writing scene. Such a realistic narrative form implies the likelihood of a minority reception right from the outset. The elimination of any fictional perspective is cur- rently a sort of literary suicide. Anyone who writes a book free of fantasies could be said to walk a fine line with their readers. The majority want to read simulations. The book also has a feminist air to it, which together with the ostentation of scepticism may initially cause readers to shy away from these pages. Obviously, I write this hypothesis from a masculine point of view and in it I’m attempting to express my first impression when the book I had in my hands was fresh out of the oven. Nonetheless, as I knew the writer person- ally I was inclined to take the theoretical risk. I have to admit here, that I opened the pages of this account out of curiosity about my friend, though this didn’t prevent a certain degree of scepticism on my part and a slight willingness to be distracted when faced with the first undigested page.

  • O Exemplo Da Tradução Da Literatura Catalã Em Portugal
    https://doi.org/10.22409/gragoata.v24i49.34156 Intersecção entre os Estudos Ibéricos e os Estudos de Tradução: o exemplo da tradução da literatura catalã em Portugal Esther Gimeno Ugaldea Resumo Tomando como ponto de partida a intersecção entre os Estudos Ibéricos e os Estudos de Tradução, este artigo aborda as relações entre os sistemas literários catalão e português com base no trabalho de tradução, nomeadamente da tradução de romances escritos em catalão para português europeu no século XXI. O propósito da análise é duplo: por um lado, e partindo da tradução literária, quer-se salientar a natureza rizomática do espaço ibérico, tal como propõe o paradigma dos Estudos Ibéricos e, por outro, pretende-se mostrar o potencial da intersecção de duas disciplinas que se encontram em expansão. Apresenta-se primeiro uma breve descrição e análise do corpus estudado para depois se centrar no papel intermediário do espanhol. A ênfase posta na tradução indireta permite concluir que este processo de transferência cultural acaba por ter efeitos negativos, uma vez que pode implicar a invisibilização da língua e do sistema cultural menorizado. Palavras-chave: Estudos Ibéricos; Estudos de Tradução; literatura catalã; Portugal; tradução indireta.
