Basic Spanish for the Camino BASIC SPANISH FOR THE CAMINO A Pilgrim’s Introduction to the Spanish Language and Culture American Pilgrims on the Camino www.americanpilgrims.org Northern California Chapter [email protected] February 1, 2020 Bienvenido peregrino Leaving soon on your Camino and need to learn some Spanish basics? Or perhaps you already know some Spanish and just need a refresher and some practice? In any case, here is a great opportunity to increase your awareness of the Spanish language and to prepare for your Camino and the transition into Spanish culture. Our meetings will focus on the language challenges that, as a pilgrim, you are likely to encounter on the Camino. While we will talk about culture, history, food, wine and many other day-to-day aspects of Spanish life, our objective will be to increase your language skills. Familiarity with the Spanish spoken in Spain will make the cultural transition easier for you and ultimately pay off with more satisfying human interactions along the Camino. Our meetings will be informal, in a comfortable environment and geared to making the review of Spanish an enjoyable experience.

  • Tasting Navarra with a Surface Area of 10,421 Km2, Navarra Has Four Dis- Tinct Climates: Oceanic, Mountain, Continental Mediterra- Nean, and Arid
    Tasting Navarra With a surface area of 10,421 km2, Navarra has four dis- tinct climates: oceanic, mountain, continental Mediterra- nean, and arid. Part of Navarra is humid and the other part is arid; the uplands in the north and the flatlands in the south. The interaction of these conditions has created dis- tinct ecosystems, on which human activity has modelled settlements, landscapes and different lifestyles that are reflected in the cuisine and in other cultural expressions. Navarra cuisine is based on local and seasonal produce, a cuisine that is closely linked to the land. The repertoires of recipes and traditional flavours are a result of the climate, the terrain, the history and the know-how built up over ge- nerations while now combining contemporary ideas. If synaesthesia is the perception obtained through the blending of two senses, when a taste transmits to the brain the harmony with the environment in which it was prepa- red, an intense synaesthetic experience occurs: sensations and emotions that immerse us in the land and explain it. © Departament for Economic and Business Development.

  • Volume 7, 2014 27
    laberinto an electronic journal of early modern hispanic literatures and culture volume 7, 2014 27 “¡Ay, reino mal gobernado!”: The Monarchy in Mira de Amescua’s Las desgracias del rey don Alfonso, el Casto Matthew D. Stroud Trinity University Until relatively recently, the conventional wisdom regarding the comedia held that the vast and remarkable cultural production of Spain’s Golden Age not only mirrored its political dominance but served as imperial propaganda in the effort to project the Hapsburg monarchy, the Castilian language, the Iberian political and economic systems, and the Roman Catholic religion both at home and abroad.1 More recent scholarship has found the relationship between imperial cultural production, politics, and society to be much more complicated, porous, and nuanced. Baroque art and literature teem with representations of racial and sexual diversity, class distinctions, and national identities, and the comedia is no different. Catherine Swietlicki has written that “Lope is capable of hearing the full presence of authentic alien voices, of tempering them by the oppositional process, and then writing the voices of the otherness with creative understanding” (219-20), and the same can be said for the genre as a whole. This willingness to explore and, at times, embrace, diversity in both political and cultural matters reveals not just an unwillingness to accept the imperial project in toto but an ongoing effort to criticize its aims and methods and expose the fissures, gaps, and inconsistencies in the monolithic imperial edifice. Even scholars who find it implausible that contemporary playwrights should have created openly subversive works performed in the center of empire still acknowledge that so many plays depict monarchs in a less than flattering light.

EMBODIED CONTESTATION: ALTERNATIVE RITUAL CONCLUSIONS ON THE CAMINO DE SANTIAGO by CLARE VAN HOLM Under the Direction of Kathryn McClymond, PhD ABSTRACT Despite its nearly thousand year history as a Christian penitent ritual, the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage has undergone rapid transformation in the last three decades, attracting a specific community of people who see themselves as “authentic” Camino pilgrims. Upon arrival at the shrine of Santiago, the traditional end of the pilgrimage route, many pilgrims express feelings of dissatisfaction. Drawing upon field research and interviews, this paper analyzes the practices of pilgrims along the Camino de Santiago route, at the shrine in Santiago de Compostela, and at the alternative conclusion site in the Galician coastal town of Finisterre. I argue that pilgrim dissatisfaction relates to pilgrim experiences in Santiago that are incongruous with their pilgrimage up until that point. In response, pilgrims have created alternative ritual conclusions that more closely relate to their experience on the Camino route and affirm their identity as “authentic” pilgrims.
