    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.

Josh Millburn contends that Hunt’s proposal of parental compromise over veganism is unacceptable on the ground that it overlooks respect for animal rights, which bars compromising. However, he contemplates the possibility of parental com­ promise over ‘unusual eating,’ of animal-based foods obtained without the violation of animal rights. I argue for zero parental compromise, rejecting a rights-oriented approach, and propose a policy that an ethical vegan parent and a non-vegan co-parent should follow to determine how to raise their children.

  • Page 1 the RECENT DEVELOPMENT of PORUGUESE
    THE RECENT DEVELOPMENT OF PORUGUESE LAW IN THE FIELD OF ANIMAL RIGHTS FERNANDO ARAÚJO1 2 I. THE PRESENT LEGAL OUTLOOK To put it mildly, Portugal is not at the forefront of the international struggle for the implementation of animal rights, and only timidly has the Portuguese legislation on animal welfare shown some progress in that direction in the last few years. Portuguese associations for animal welfare are too small, too financially strapped and too dispersed and uncoordinated to perform a sustained role in championing the cause. Their cultural and social visibility is minuscule – and surely disproportionate to the political, legal and judicial victories that, in spite of everything, the generosity and courage of a few activists3 have obtained on an individual basis. Worst of all, some traditions of violence on animals have a long history in Portugal, e.g. bullfights, and seem especially well suited to resist legal changes and to erect political barriers in the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, there are reasons for hope that this bleak outlook will improve. The rural- urban migration over the last century has resulted in the predominance of an urban culture that is becoming more and more sensitive to issues of animal welfare (a sensitivity not immune to the “herding effects” of trends and fads, e.g. the ban on furs in the fashion industry). The growing power of the media, with its consistent denunciations of the more shocking episodes of abuse of non-human animals, both domestically and internationally, has conferred visibility to these issues and put the pressure on politicians to terminate at least the more extreme forms of exploitation and violence.

  • The Politics of Bulls and Bullfights in Contemporary Spain
    SOCIAL THOUGHT & COMMENTARY Torophies and Torphobes: The Politics of Bulls and Bullfights in Contemporary Spain Stanley Brandes University of California, Berkeley Abstract Although the bullfight as a public spectacle extends throughout southwestern Europe and much of Latin America, it attains greatest political, cultural, and symbolic salience in Spain. Yet within Spain today, the bullfight has come under serious attack, from at least three sources: (1) Catalan nationalists, (2) Spaniards who identify with the new Europe, and (3) increasingly vocal animal rights advocates. This article explores the current debate—cultural, political, and ethical—on bulls and bullfighting within the Spanish state, and explores the sources of recent controversy on this issue. [Keywords: Spain, bullfighting, Catalonia, animal rights, public spectacle, nationalism, European Union] 779 Torophies and Torphobes: The Politics of Bulls and Bullfights in Contemporary Spain s is well known, the bullfight as a public spectacle extends through- A out southwestern Europe (e.g., Campbell 1932, Colomb and Thorel 2005, Saumade 1994), particularly southern France, Portugal, and Spain. It is in Spain alone, however, that this custom has attained notable polit- ical, cultural, and symbolic salience. For many Spaniards, the bull is a quasi-sacred creature (Pérez Álvarez 2004), the bullfight a display of exceptional artistry. Tourists consider bullfights virtually synonymous with Spain and flock to these events as a source of exotic entertainment. My impression, in fact, is that bullfighting is even more closely associated with Spanish national identity than baseball is to that of the United States. Garry Marvin puts the matter well when he writes that the cultur- al significance of the bullfight is “suggested by its general popular image as something quintessentially Spanish, by the considerable attention paid to it within Spain, and because of its status as an elaborate and spectacu- lar ritual drama which is staged as an essential part of many important celebrations” (Marvin 1988:xv).
