  • Ad/Dressing Modernism: Emilia Pardo Bazán's Later Short Stories
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA Ad/Dressing Modernism: Emilia Pardo Bazán’s Later Short Stories (1901-1921) A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the Department of Modern Languages and Literatures School of Arts and Sciences Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Martha E. Davis Washington, DC 2010 Ad/Dressing Modernism: Emilia Pardo Bazán’s Later Short Stories (1901-1921) Martha E. Davis, Ph.D. Director: Chad C. Wright, Ph.D. Although her realist and naturalist novels have been widely researched, scholars have only recently begun to study the more than 500 short stories Emilia Pardo Bazán authored. The majority of her short story oeuvre coincides not only with the pinnacle of her feminist writings, but also with the modernist period (1880-1920). Concerned with literary as well as sartorial fashion, Pardo Bazán demonstrates a heightened awareness of her writing style, as well as her characters’ style of dress and their corresponding roles as conformists or New Woman trendsetters. In this dissertation I aim to uncover how the question of “style” or “fashion” manifests itself in characters’ apparel and the literary themes of Pardo Bazán’s “modernist” writing. To illustrate how Modernism allowed Pardo Bazán to experiment with form and content, I draw on the short story theories of Poe, Joyce and other critics. Virginia Woolf’s and Edith Wharton’s reflections provide a contemporary feminist perspective on writing during what Rita Felski deems a “feminized” modern age. I refer to what Robert Johnson describes as the “social modernism” of Spanish women writers that highlights themes related to women’s changing societal roles.

Deborah Wong has consistently challenged me to become a better scholar and to think more deeply and critically about my work. I am grateful for her advice and teachings, and that she demanded excellence from me at every turn. Finally, Jonathan Ritter has been such a great advisor and mentor. His patience, kindness, humor and wisdom are all boundless. I admire Jonathan for so many reasons, and pattern myself after him in a number of ways.

  • La Feria De Abril – Transcript in English
    Dynamic Spanish Trips La Feria de Abril Transcript in English La Feria de Abril – Transcript in English Hello and welcome to Dynamic Spanish! Here, you can improve your Spanish while you explore this beautiful country. Are you ready? Let’s go! In this episode we’re taking you to a festival in Seville called La Feria de Abril. Seville is the capital of the autonomous community of Andalusia, located in the south of Spain. Every year, around two weeks after Easter, the fair begins and runs for seven days. This is the biggest week in Seville’s calendar, and something the locals are really proud of. Every day at midday, a parade of horse drawn carriages takes people from here, all the way to the bullring; La Real Maestranza. Bullfights play an important part in this celebration, despite the mixed feelings that Spaniards have about this violent and bloody tradition. Bullfighting is not as popular as it used to be, with some regions, such as Andalusia, maintaining the tradition more than others. We’ll discuss this controversial topic in detail in a future episode. Attendees of the fair tend to dress very smartly, and that includes the well decorated horses. Women wear flamenco dresses with a matching flower in their hair, a shawl, and a fan. The men wear special suits with short jackets and flat brimmed hats. As you can see, it’s a very fashionable and colourful event. What do the men wear during the April Fair? A. Short jackets and flat brimmed hats B. Flamenco dresses with matching flowers in their hair C.

Dent & Co, Aldine House, 29 and 30 Bedford Street Covent Garden, fV,C. ^ 1903 All Rights Reserved PREFACE N the story of Seville I have endeavoured to interest the reader in the associations of the buildings and the thoroughfares of the city. I do not claim to have written a full history of Seville, though I have sketched the salient events in its annals in the opening chapters of this book. The history of Seville is the history of Spain, and if I have omitted many matters of historical importance from my pages, it is because I wished to focus atten- tion upon the city itself. I trust that I have succeeded in awaking here and there an echo of the past, and in bringing before the imagination the figures of Moorish potentate or sage, and of Spanish ruler, artist, priest and soldier. Those who are acquainted with the history of Spain will appreciate the difficulty that besets the historian in the matter of chronological accuracy, and even in a narration of many of the main events. The chronicles of the Roman, Gothic and Moorish epochs are hardly accepted as reliable. Patriotic bias and religious enthusiasm are elements that frequently mislead in of the is not [the making history, though Spaniard in the of error in this [alone commission respect.

During an active career spanning more than forty years which was based almost exclusively in Seville, Murillo’s paintings of poor people in both religious and genre paintings constitute the widest extant range of representations of the poor in Spanish art of the seventeenth century. By focusing on discourses on poverty of the period, the networks of charitable assistance which existed in Seville and the nature of the image at that time, this study explores the extent to which Murillo’s images of the poor express changing perceptions of the poor and poor relief in early modern Spanish culture.

  • The “Caseta” at the Seville Fair1 2
    PI‐136‐E THE “CASETA” AT THE SEVILLE FAIR1 2 “It's amazing, Marcos”. That is how Manolo greeted his colleague on the morning of March 18. “Good morning, Manolo, what’s so amazing?” “The caseta! It’s ours!” One week earlier, at one of their Friday meetings after preparing case studies, Marcos had suggested it would be a good idea for the members of group 3 of the PIDE (Intensive Business Management Programme)3 to share a caseta (marquee tents) at the Seville Fair. Although nobody thought this was possible because the official inauguration of the Fair (when the fair lights are turned on) was little more than a month away, Manolo mentioned that he had some contacts and could try. His efforts, and influences let it be said, bore fruit and 20 working days before the inauguration of the Fair, he was awarded a caseta (marquee tent) whose rights had not been renewed by the previous members. “What do you say if we make some phone calls and start organizing things? We only have 20 days and the initial € 1,500 that we collected among ourselves, and there’s still a lot of work to be done", said Manolo. 1 Case Study prepared by the Research Division of Instituto Internacional San Telmo, Spain. Prepared by Professors Raimundo Gómez del Sol and Enrique Garrido Martínez of Instituto Internacional San Telmo, based on work carried out by Team III of the Intensive Business Management Programme (PIDE) “PIDE Sevilla Enero 08”, for use in the classroom and not as an example of the correct or incorrect management of a specific situation.
