Francisco Ruiz Ramo'n points out that in contemporary Spain the return to this type of drama, "suele producirse desde una conciencia histories de las contradicciones del presente, con intencion de revelar las fuerzas, subrepticias o patentes, que lo configuran” CEstudios 215). Martha Halsey has also written about postwar historical drama in Spain, focusing on several plays ("Dramatic Patterns”). Nevertheless, as Ruiz Ramon notes in his ”Justification” to the EstrBnp issue dBdicatBd to historical drama in modern Spain C14.1), there have been few general studies on post World War II, historical theater. He mentions thB importance of Lukacs’ ThB Historical Novel and Lindenburger*s Historical Drama, both of which are relied on heavily in this study. Ule will begin with the understanding that the history play is a product of the interaction between the literary and social norms of the dramatist’s present and the past as 1 s interpreted during this later period. The essential elements of postwar and transitional historical drama, as well as artistic and social aspects and the relation between them, will be analyzed and contrasted. In short, we will attempt to explain the proliferation of historical drama in the postwar period, to characterize this dramatic production, to trace its development, and to study certain characteristic examples. Although of great interest, the development of historiography presented in studies such as Uilkander’s The Plau of Truth and StatB. lies beyond the scope of these objectives. The interaction between literature and history, art and reality, makes the study of historical drama a challenging task. As Lindenburger observes: ”... historical writings, whether we classify them simply as history or among the traditional literary forms, makB a greater pretense at engaging with reality than do writings whose fictiveness we accept from the start. The very term ’historical drama’ suggests the naturB of this engagement, with the first word qualifying the fictiveness of the second, the second questioning the reality of the first” Cx). The relationship between drama, which can be viewBd as artistically autonomous, and the external world, which nonetheless lies at the origin of this text is an aspect to be considered in the analysis of the plays. In thB casB of historical drama, the 3 complexitiy of this relationship manifests itself more openly due to the public nature of the events portrayed. 1 • Touiard a Definition of the Field of Studu Before beginning, uie must formulate a clear definition of the field of study. As indicated in the title, the area to be analyzed is the Spanish historical drama of the postuiar and transitional periods. It is necessary to ascertain what is meant by each of these terms before continuing with more profound analytical concerns. 1 .1 . Spanlsh-Pciain By "Spanish,’' it is understood that the plays are written in Spain, about Spanish history, by Spanish dramatists, for an implied Spanish public. Therefore, history plays written by dramatists in exile are not within the scope of this study. Two such examples are NochB de BUBrr.fiL.BI1 -Bl—DUSBP del PradQ and El caballero dB las espuelas de oro bu Rafael Alberti and Alejandro Casona, respectively. Neither will we discuss plays on Spanish history written by non-Spaniards, nor plays written by Spaniards on the history of other nations. Then too, there is the problem of staging. Due to the imposition of censorship, which will be studied in some detail later, many works never reached the Spanish stage. 4 ThB problem, however, Is that if texts by dramatists such as Alfonso Sastre and Martin Recuerda were not included, uie would be overlooking some of the most important works of the period. Therefore, w b will also consider texts that wBre not seen by a contemporary Spanish public. Although in a generally implicit manner, the works studied here represent the perspective of the political opposition in the postwar

  • El Oficio De La Arqueología the Craft of Archaeology *
    El oficio de la arqueología The Craft of Archaeology * Michael Shanks STANFORD UNIVERSITY, [email protected] Randall H. McGuire BINGHAMTON UNIVERSITY, [email protected] La idea de la arqueología como arte desafía la separación entre razonamiento y ejecución, teoría y práctica, que hoy caracteriza a la disciplina. El Movimiento de Artes y Oficios de fines del siglo xix estableció a la artesanía como una manifestación estética de oposición. Asentamos a la artesanía dentro de una crítica marxista del trabajo alienado y proponemos una práctica unificada de mano, corazón y mente. Los debates engendrados por la arqueo- logía postprocesual han definido firmemente a la arqueología del presente como una prác- tica cultural y política. Sin embargo, muchos arqueólogos aún no saben cómo implementar estas ideas. Argüimos que una solución a este dilema consiste en pensar en la arqueología como artesanía. Esta resolución no provee un método o un libro de recetas para la práctica de la arqueología, puesto que el núcleo de nuestro argumento es que la intención de regularizar la arqueología constituye precisamente la causa de alienación de la disciplina. Por el contrario, deseamos considerar a la arqueología como un modo de producción cultural, una práctica unificada que involucra al pasado, al arqueólogo, al pú- blico, al cliente y a la sociedad contemporánea. Palabras clave: arqueología artesanal, Movimiento de Artes y Oficios, práctica polí- tica y alienación. The idea of archaeology as craft challenges the separation of reasoning and execution that characterizes the field today. The Arts and Crafts Movement of the late nineteenth century established craftwork as an aesthetic of opposition.

  • Fiestas and Fervor: Religious Life and Catholic Enlightenment in the Diocese of Barcelona, 1766-1775
    FIESTAS AND FERVOR: RELIGIOUS LIFE AND CATHOLIC ENLIGHTENMENT IN THE DIOCESE OF BARCELONA, 1766-1775 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrea J. Smidt, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Dale K. Van Kley, Adviser Professor N. Geoffrey Parker Professor Kenneth J. Andrien ____________________ Adviser History Graduate Program ABSTRACT The Enlightenment, or the "Age of Reason," had a profound impact on eighteenth-century Europe, especially on its religion, producing both outright atheism and powerful movements of religious reform within the Church. The former—culminating in the French Revolution—has attracted many scholars; the latter has been relatively neglected. By looking at "enlightened" attempts to reform popular religious practices in Spain, my project examines the religious fervor of people whose story usually escapes historical attention. "Fiestas and Fervor" reveals the capacity of the Enlightenment to reform the Catholicism of ordinary Spaniards, examining how enlightened or Reform Catholicism affected popular piety in the diocese of Barcelona. This study focuses on the efforts of an exceptional figure of Reform Catholicism and Enlightenment Spain—Josep Climent i Avinent, Bishop of Barcelona from 1766- 1775. The program of “Enlightenment” as sponsored by the Spanish monarchy was one that did not question the Catholic faith and that championed economic progress and the advancement of the sciences, primarily benefiting the elite of Spanish society. In this context, Climent is noteworthy not only because his idea of “Catholic Enlightenment” opposed that sponsored by the Spanish monarchy but also because his was one that implicitly condemned the present hierarchy of the Catholic Church and explicitly ii advocated popular enlightenment and the creation of a more independent “public sphere” in Spain by means of increased literacy and education of the masses.

  • La Desestabilización De La Jerarquía Masculina En Las Novelas De María De Zayas
    ABSTRACT LA DESESTABILIZACIÓN DE LA JERARQUÍA MASCULINA EN LAS NOVELAS DE MARÍA DE ZAYAS Based on a great variety of primary and secondary sources, and referring to the ideas of Derrida, Spivak, and contemporary feminist theories, this study explores the ways in which María de Zayas y Sotomayor subverts and destabilizes the rigid patriarchal structure that predominated in the seventeenth century in order to give voice to women or female desire. Zayas constructs characters that are active, strong, clever, and ingenious, and who reject submission to the totalizing conventional customs of the age, and who challenge and fight against elements of a confining patriarchy. Likewise, through female writing about women who speak of cruelty and victimization at the hands of men, this thesis will discuss the resistance and subversion of Zayas in the face of hegemonic structures of early modern Spain or its dominant discourses, that attempt to silence women’s voice and control their subjectivity through absolutist postulations. The thesis will demonstrate, through the Novelas ejemplares y amorosas and Desengaños amorosos, that there are no inherent absolute truths that can attempt to dominate and concretize the female Subject. Zayas (a paragon of creativity, intellectual capacity, and knowledge) demonstrates the slippery nature of dominant discourses when she presents women who are able to exact revenge by their own hands, who can speak despite their subaltern condition, and who represent themselves by means of female writing.

Salgado1 Resumen: El artículo estudia el valor literario y particularmente en la poesía de Barba Jacob analizando la representación poética en piezas como "El son del viento", poema-autorretrato que inscribe su vida y su obra mediante signos demoníacos de carácter preciosista y buscando mostrar el trágico fracaso que jugó su estética maldita en su atormentada búsqueda de trascendencia.

Abstract: This article studies the literary contribution of Barba Jacob, analyzing in particular the poetic representation in pieces such as “El son del viento.” This study showcases this self-portrait poem as it inscribes the life and work of the poet, in particular how Barba uses demonic signs of a distinctly preciosista nature to reveal the tragic failure that her aesthetic ultimately represented in a tormented search for transcendence.

Ending the Spanish Exception Explaining the Rise of Vox Ethan vanderWilden, Colby College Honors Thesis in Government First Reader: Professor Jennifer Yoder Second Reader: Professor Carrie LeVan 2019-2020 Abstract The “Spanish Exception” refers to Spain’s lack, until recently, of a populist right-wing party. Vox became the first party to the right of the conservative PP to win seats in a regional election in 2018 and in general elections in April and November of 2019. Vox is currently the third largest political party in the Spanish parliament, bringing an end to Spanish exceptionalism. This thesis addresses the rise of Vox through a conceptual framework of political opportunity structure. The framework allows for multiple explanations to account for Vox’s sudden breakthrough.
