Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT The object of this thesis is to explore Pardo Bazan's approach to travel as an aesthetically rewarding experience and also as a soul-searching exercise in which she voices her opinions and concerns with regard to the state of late nineteenth-century Spain and compares it to some other European countries. Indeed, in the Galician author's chronicles, which reveal her versatility and multifaceted interests as a travel writer, the journey itself takes second place to cultural, social, political, artistic, religious, and intellectual considerations. Another aspect of Pardo Bazan's travel works that this study will develop is her uneasy stance with regard to progress, technological advancement, and modern civilization, as illustrated, principally, in her foreign chronicles. For it is her apprehension and at times aversion to modern technology that place her in an anachronistic position in relation to some of the events and places covered in her travel accounts. Pardo Bazan's obsessive longing for the past, as well as her generalized rejection of the aesthetic canons and artistic achievements of the nineteenth century (a period she regarded as lacking in spiritual and religious values), will also be revealed as playing a significant part in her approach to travel writing. In addition, the author's ambivalent attitude to France will be considered, together with her internationalism (which was never at odds with her Spanishness), and the progressive 3 and painful realization that, in the social, industrial, and cultural spheres, her country lagged well behind most of its European neighbours. Overall, this thesis will trace Pardo Bazan's journeys through her homeland and elsewhere in Europe as she attempts to identify the ills that beset turn-of-the- century Spain, suggest some possible solutions, and ultimately seek out among the advanced European nations she visited a role model worthy of emulation by her own country.

Conclusions 370 CONCLUSION 374 WORKS CONSULTED 384 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1. The Making of a Travel Writer Emilia Pardo Bazan (1851-1921) was one of the most prolific writers of nineteenth-century Spain. In a career which spanned over forty-five years, Pardo Bazan wrote nineteen novels, twenty-one novelas breves, well over five hundred short stories, many monographs and articles on a wide variety of subjects, two cookery books, and seven travel works. It could also be added that she was the most travelled writer of nineteenth-century Spain, with the possible exception of Juan Valera, who was in the diplomatic service. Between 1871 and 1874, in what was to be her first European tour, Pardo Bazan visited Paris, Vienna, Venice, Verona, Geneva, and London. Between December 1887 and January 1888, the author travelled to Rome as a correspondent for the Madrid newspaper, El Imparcial. Her first travel work, entitled Mi romeria. in which she recounts her journey to and experiences in the Italian capital, appeared in book form in 1888. That same year she published De mi tierra, a collection of travel pieces and essays on the folklore and art of her native Galicia. A1 pie de la torre Eiffel and Por Francia v por Alemania. in which Pardo Bazan narrates her experiences at the Paris Universal Exhibition of 1889 and related travels, appeared in 1889 and 1890 respectively. Por la Espaha pintoresca. published in 1895, is a compilation of some travel 8 pieces written by Pardo Bazan following trips taken between 1889 and 1893. In 1900, her articles on the Paris Universal Exhibition of that year appeared in book form under the title of Cuarenta dias en la Exposicion. The impressions collected during her travels through Belgium, France, Portugal, and parts of Spain were published in 1902 in Por la Europa catolica. Judging by her comments in the "Apuntes autobiograficos" which prefaced the first edition of Los pazos de Ulloa (1886), it seems that Pardo Bazan's first attempts at travel writing were made during her European tour of 1871-74, accompanied by her parents and husband. In 1871, after the election of Amadeus of Savoy as King of Spain and the demise of the Progressive Party to which Pardo Bazan's father belonged, the entire family moved to Paris in order to escape the turmoil that occurred in the wake of the Revolution of 1868. During her travels through France, Italy, and Austria she wrote her first passages of prose in the form of a travel journal, which she then decided was not worthy of publication: Sobre las mesas de las fondas, sobre mis rodillas en el tren, con plumas comidas de orin y lapices despuntados, tracé mis primeras paginas de prosa; el indispensable Diario de viaie. que no se me ocurrio publicar, ni lo merece. (Pardo Bazan, 1973: 709) And it was during her stay in Paris in 1871 that she obligingly performed her first duties as the "parfait voyageur", which later, in 1906, she summarized as follows: Ces devoirs [. .] consistent à visiter les monuments un par un, ce qui est très ennuyeux et non moins inutile. Je ne l'ai plus refait depuis. Je vais où il me plaît, et je 9 plains sincèrement ceux qui s'obligent à admirer à jour fixe, à heure fixe, telle ou telle vieillerie, alors qu'il y a tant de belles choses qu'aucun guide n'indique. (Gômez Carrillo, 1906: 458) After her return to Spain, Pardo Bazan became acquainted with Francisco Giner de los Rios who introduced her to Krausismo. the German philosophy in vogue at the time amongst many Spanish intellectuals. Although Pardo Bazan never embraced Krausismo. apparently preferring to occupy her time in the reading of "sounder" philosophers, such us Schelling, Fichte, Kant, Hegel, Saint Thomas, Descartes, Plato, and Aristotle (Pardo Bazan, 1973: 711), she did strike a close and long-lasting friendship with Giner, who was to become her mentor and adviser. In an article published in La Ilustracion Artistica of 1 March 1915, Pardo Bazan paid homage to the recently deceased Giner, and noted how he would urge her to enhance her writing career and broaden her horizons through travel and through contact with foreign places so that practice would contribute to increasing her Spanishness, her casticismo: Era Giner partidario de que el escritor se hiciese intime de si mismo; de que penetrase en su santuario y no renegase del manantial en que acostumbraba a beber: pero también de que recorriese el mundo, viajase, recibiese las influencias del aire exterior, y por ellas se hiciese doblemente castizo.

Herzberger, Chairperson Dr. James A. Parr Dr. Raymond L. Williams Copyright by Rachel Anna Neff 2013 The Dissertation of Rachel Anna Neff is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgements First and foremost, I wish to thank my kind and patient dissertation director, Dr. David K. Herzberger. I stopped counting the number of drafts he read and commented on, because I’m fairly certain the actual number would constitute cruel and unusual punishment. I am so grateful for the time and care he invested in my candidacy; I hope to one day be even half the mentor he has been to me. I would like to thank Dr. James A. Parr for serving on my committee, guiding me through several independent studies to improve my written Spanish, and for leading the amazing study abroad program in Spain where I worked at the Biblioteca Nacional. On a more personal note, I always appreciated how he shared his apple slices with me whenever I stopped by his office. I also wish to thank Dr. Raymond L. Williams for serving on my committee, advising me on independent study projects, and introducing me to Twitter. The topics in his courses were always fascinating, and the discussions inspiring. The end of the seminar dinners at his house are something I wish to do for my mentees in the future.

  • The Spanish Civil War in Text Designed by Sarah Glenski
    THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR IN TEXT DESIGNED BY SARAH GLENSKI COURSE DESCRIPTION & OBJECTIVES Political strife is something that has pervaded modern Spain. During the nineteenth century, the nation was plagued by a series of internal conflicts, the Carlist wars, in which vying factions fought for the right to the throne. A polarization of ideologies continued into the twentieth century. In 1931, the Second Republic, a liberal, democratically-elected government, came to power, yet the Nationalists, a group of right-wing rebels led by Francisco Franco, challenged and ultimately defeated the Republic during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). In many ways, Spain’s war prefigured World War II (1939-1945), yet fascism was not defeated in Spain. After the war, Franco implemented a fascist dictatorship that lasted until his death in 1975. The war left its mark on the nation in the decades that followed and continues to plague national consciousness to this day. In this course, students will come to understand the political and historical context of the Spanish Civil War and Postwar through a close analysis of a wide array of texts, such as photography, art, narrative, film, and graphic novel. Just as the texts are of various genres, they are of differing political ideologies, points of view, and publication dates, which allow us to approach the war from many angles. Besides analyzing the texts for content, we will contemplate how the texts, which are organized thematically, dialogue with each other both within and beyond their thematic groupings. At the heart of our analyses, we will question what a civil war means for a nation, by considering the diversity of portrayed experiences of Spain’s war and the role of memory.

  • 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.
