Nineteenth Century Literary and Historical Background............................................ 217 D. Miscellaneous ..................................... 220 i v CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Carolina Coronado (1820-1911) was a Romantic poet of considerable merit who also cultivated the drama and the novel. Famous at the age of twenty, she became active in literary circles and was known as an outstanding personality among the illustrious group of Spanish Romantics at mid­ century. Praised in her own time for all her works, and above all known for her lyrical and descriptive poetry written in a mysterious and delicate tone, she was a worthwhile representative of the Spanish Romantic movement and its evolution. Because no study of her life and works has ever been written, a thorough investigation of Carolina Coronado will help to complete the panorama of Romantic literature in Spain. In this study I shall examine Carolina Coronado's literary production within the context of her life and times. All available works will be considered, but more emphasis will be given to the poetry because of its significance and complexity. I shall also analyze Coronado's novels within the context of nineteenth century trends and developments. 2 Since she was not interested in posterity, Carolina Coronado paid little attention to her literary fame and the publication of her works. As a result, many of her writings, including her plays, were ultimately lost. However, there are approximately ten editions of her poetry, two with prologues by Hartzenbusch (1843 and 1848) and another of 1853 by Castelar. The most modern editions of Carolina Coronado's work date from 1946 and 1953. The novels are of high quality and are important for several reasons: first, they complete Coronado's literary personality; second, they inform us about the evolution of her style and her concerns; third, they are rare examples of the beginning of the nineteenth century novel in Spain. Judging by the repeated editions and the fact that several were translated into other languages, the novels were very successful in their era. Carolina Coronado's work is important as a barometer of the transition from the Romantic to the post-Romantic period in Spanish Literature. In her earliest poetry, mostly written in the 1830s, and also in her first novel, Jari11a (1851), Coronado belongs mostly to the literary traditions of the first Romantics. She shared with them, for example, their approach to nature as an ever changing creature with a soul of its own. Yet, even in her early works there is evidence of a different orientation which would later be 3 confirmed around mid-century. Coronado is always in search of harmony among the elements of nature and the delicacy of human feelings. She prefers suggestions to out-cries while her imagery is translucid and her vocabulary simple, on occasion, almost conversational. To the extent that she states the relative in terms that imply the absolute, she remains basically Romantic, but the ambiguity of her emotions and the subdued tones she uses to express them bring her closer to the later Becquer than to the earlier and more explosive Espronceda. After 1846, her poetry begins to incorporate history, politics, society and the role of women within it, and thus initiates a tendency away from Romanticism. Her novels La Sigea (1854) and La rueda de la desgracia (1873) bridge the gap between Romanticism and Realism. This study will explore the evolution of Carolina Coronado's style and thinking to see how her work prolongs Romantic tendencies while also contributing to the appearance of Realism. As a multifaceted writer whose transitional work contributes to the emergence of female consciousness in Spanish literature, Coronado's production deserves a thorough investigation. 4 A. Biographical Summary of the Life of Carolina Coronado Details of the life of Carolina Coronado are reasonably well known and can be found in various biographies as well as other more fragmentary

    MAHANI TEAVE concert pianist educator environmental activist ABOUT MAHANI Award-winning pianist and humanitarian Mahani Teave is a pioneering artist who bridges the creative world with education and environmental activism. The only professional classical musician on her native Easter Island, she is an important cultural ambassador to this legendary, cloistered area of Chile. Her debut album, Rapa Nui Odyssey, launched as number one on the Classical Billboard charts and received raves from critics, including BBC Music Magazine, which noted her “natural pianism” and “magnificent artistry.” Believing in the profound, healing power of music, she has performed globally, from the stages of the world’s foremost concert halls on six continents, to hospitals, schools, jails, and low-income areas. Twice distinguished as one of the 100 Women Leaders of Chile, she has performed for its five past presidents and in its Embassy, along with those in Germany, Indonesia, Mexico, China, Japan, Ecuador, Korea, Mexico, and symbolic places including Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate, Chile’s Palacio de La Moneda, and Chilean Congress. Her passion for classical music, her local culture, and her Island’s environment, along with an intense commitment to high-quality music education for children, inspired Mahani to set aside her burgeoning career at the age of 30 and return to her Island to found the non-profit organization Toki Rapa Nui with Enrique Icka, creating the first School of Music and the Arts of Easter Island. A self-sustaining ecological wonder, the school offers both classical and traditional Polynesian lessons in various instruments to over 100 children.

  • Byron in Romantic and Post-Romantic Spain María Eugenia Perojo Arronte University of Valladolid
    1 1 BYRON IN ROMANTIC AND POST-ROMANTIC SPAIN MARÍA EUGENIA PEROJO ARRONTE UNIVERSITY OF VALLADOLID The title of this paper seems to require a definition of Spanish Romanticism and post-Romanticism. What the terms Romanticism and post-Romanticism might mean in relation to Spanish literature has been a permanent debate among scholars. Spanish Romanticism as an aesthetic movement has been insistently questioned by many literary historiographers, adducing diverse and even opposed reasons and causes to support their albeit common agreement on its “failure” It is generally assumed that it flourished late and had “too short a lease”. Spanish nineteenth-century literature, poetry in particular, is fascinating because of its complexity for the literary historian, its resistance to be reduced to limits, to be encapsulated and easily digested in pill form. An overview of the debate through the voices of reputed scholars of the period may illustrate the controversy. The first usual reference when dealing with the development of Spanish Romanticism is to Edgar Allison Peers’ A History of the Romantic Movement in Spain . Peers considered that political causes are not a sufficient explanation for the “failure” of Spanish Romanticism. The problem, he argued, lay in the weakness of Romantic ideas among Spaniards. What he called the “Romantic revival” was “in the main a native development, and foreign influences upon it have often been given more than their due importance” .2 Sharing this idea of a failure of the movement, Vicente Llorens put his emphasis upon the persistence of Neoclassicism in the first decades of the nineteenth century. Thus, he began his study El romanticismo español 3 with the debate on Calderón’s drama which was initiated in 1814 between Johann Nikolas Böhl von Faber and José Joaquín de Mora.

Enlightment and Romanticism Dialectics in El Robinson urbano’s Antonio Muñoz Molina journalistic articles. Revista de Comunicación de la SEECI, 54, 55-78. https://doi.org/10.15198/seeci.2021.54.e632 ABSTRACT Introduction: The Urban Robinson appeared in 1984. It was the first work published by Antonio Muñoz Molina. As such, it contains the key elements of the initial work of the author. Those elements are the foundation for his later production. Methodology: This work analyses The Urban Robinson under the dialectic between the Enlightenment and Romanticism, which offers a perspective from which to read the years and tensions of the Spanish democratic transition as a historical period, as well as the relations between journalism (exercised in freedom again) and literature. To make this analysis, this article uses a bibliography on journalism and literature, on the one hand, and, on the other, on Enlightenment and Romanticism, as well as on Postmodernism as a post-Romantic period. Discussion: The Urban Robinson is presented, in the first years of Spanish democracy, as a defense of reason and the Enlightenment project, although it also reports its risks and excesses.

    VIAJEROS POR AMÉRICA CENTRAL: GEOGRAFÍAS, SUJETOS Y CONTRADISCURSOS A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Jesús Manuel Gómez Fernández, Lic. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Maureen Ahern Dr. Lúcia Costigan Aproved by Dr. Fernando Unzueta ______________________________ Dr. Claudio González Adviser Department of Spanish and Portuguese ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the narratives of the journeys of and about four explorers who traveled across the Central American isthmus, from the 16th to early 18th centuries, when Spain ruled over these territories. It studies the travel narratives of Vasco Núñez de Balboa, Juan Vásquez de Coronado, William Dampier and John Cockburn and, at the same time, it offers new perspectives on the recuperation of Central American cultural memory and heritage as it revisits and analyzes the early colonial isthmus in terms of its geographical and human landscapes. This dissertation proposes that through these “Relaciones de Viaje” the representation of the Central American Isthmus is transformed from a mythical landscape into a material one as they scrutinize the exploitable riches of the land and subject its peoples to new excluding set of rules. Rivaling the Spanish enterprise, the British search for their own truths in the Spanish territories that materialize new landscapes to non Spanish Europeans, so as to represent a counter imperialistic discourse. The isthmus thus becomes a discursive and physical battleground where the two powers clash producing new subjectivities that evolve on the margins of the Spanish project and under the protection of British Empire, as in the case of the Moskitia.

  • Recovering Jewish Spain: Politics, Historiography and Institutionalization of the Jewish Past in Spain (1845-1935)
    Recovering Jewish Spain: Politics, Historiography and Institutionalization of the Jewish Past in Spain (1845-1935) Michal Rose Friedman Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Michal Rose Friedman All rights reserved ABSTRACT Recovering Jewish Spain: Politics, Historiography and Institutionalization of the Jewish Past in Spain (1845-1935) Michal Rose Friedman This dissertation is a study of initiatives to recover the Jewish past and of the emergence of Sephardic Studies in Spain from 1845 to 1935. It explores the ways the Jewish past became central to efforts to construct and claim a Spanish patria, through its appropriation and integration into the nation’s official national historical narrative, or historia patria. The construction of this history was highly contentious, as historians and politicians brought Spain’s Jewish past to bear in debates over political reform, in discussions of religious and national identity, and in elaborating diverse political and cultural movements. Moreover, it demonstrates how the recovery of the Jewish past connected—via a Spanish variant of the so-called “Jewish question”—to nationalist political and cultural movements such as Neo-Catholicism, Orientalism, Regenerationism, Hispanism, and Fascism. In all of these contexts, attempts to reclaim Spain’s Jewish past—however impassioned, and however committed—remained fractured and ambivalent, making such efforts to “recover” Spain’s
