Mitte des 15. Jahrhunderts endete die zauberhafte Welt des arabischen Reiches von Al-Andalus mit dem tief betrübten Abzug von Boabdil, der sich des Wertes und der außerordentlichen Schönheit, die er hinter sich ließ, sehr wohl bewusst war. Einige Monate zuvor war es den Katholischen Königen mit ihren in Santa Fe lagernden Truppen durch die andauernde Belagerung gelungen, den letzen Maurenkönig von Granada, Boabdil „el Chico“, zu stürzen. Die vom letzten Herrscher von Al-Andalus vergossenen Tränen, als er den Pass „Suspiro del Moro“ (Seufzer des Mauren) über- querte, sowie die verletzende Bemerkung seiner Mutter: „Bewei- ne wie ein Weib, was du nicht 4 fähig warst, wie 5 ein Mann zu ver- teidigen“, waren Augenblicke, die der Nachwelt er- halten geblieben sind und einen Wendepunkt in der Geschichte dieses Landes darstellten. Von diesem Zeitpunkt an wurde Granada als Königssitz und sogar als kö- nigliche Grabstätte zum Symbol für die Einheit Spaniens.

    Official guide City of Granada 3 Open doors To the past. To the future. To fusion. To mix. To the north. To the south. To the stars. To history. To the cutting edge. To the night. To the horizon. To adventure. To contemplation. To the body. To the mind. To fun. To culture. Open all year. Open to the world. Welcome The story of a name or a name for history 5TH CENTURY B.C.: the Turduli founded Elybirge. 2ND CENTURY B.C.: the Romans settled in Florentia Iliberitana. 1ST CENTURY: according to tradition, San Cecilio, the patron saint of the city, Christianised Iliberis. 7TH CENTURY: the Visigoths fortified Iliberia. 8TH CENTURY: the Arabs arrived in Ilvira. 11TH CENTURY: the Zirids moved their capital to Medina Garnata. 15TH CENTURY: Boabdil surrendered the keys of Granada to the Catholic Monarchs. Today, we still call this city GRANADA which, over its 25 century–history, has been the pride of all those who lived in it, defended it, those who lost it and those who won it. 25 centuries of inhabitants have given the city, apart from its different names, its multicultural nature, its diversity of monuments, religious and secular works of art, its roots and its sights and sounds only to be found in Granada. Iberians, Romans, Arabs, Jews and Christians have all considered this Granada to be their own, this Granada that is today the embodiment of diversity and harmonious coexistence. Since the 19th century, Granada has also been the perfect setting for those romantic travellers that had years on end free: the American Washington Irving, with his Tales of the Alhambra (1832), captivated writers, artists and musicians of his generation, telling them about that “fiercely magnificent” place that also fascinated Victor Hugo and Chateaubriand.

Delgado Theatre Journal, Volume 67, Number 2, May 2015, pp. 177-196 (Article) Published by Johns Hopkins University Press DOI: 10.1353/tj.2015.0042 For additional information about this article http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/tj/summary/v067/67.2.delgado.html Accessed 1 Sep 2015 22:22 GMT Memory, Silence, and Democracy in Spain: Federico García Lorca, the Spanish Civil War, and the Law of Historical Memory Maria M. Delgado In the midst of the search for the body of Federico García Lorca, funded by Andalu- sia’s regional government in 2009, journalist Emilio Silva wrote of “the silent bones of Federico García Lorca and the skeleton of our democracy.”1 Contrasting the circulating images of the burial of Chilean folk singer Víctor Jara with the secrecy accompanying the exhumation of Lorca’s supposed grave, Silva, cofounder and president of the Aso- ciación para la Recuperación de la Memoria Histórica (Association for the Recovery of Historical Memory, or ARMH)—a national organization assisting in the location and exhumation of the graves of Spain’s desaparecidos, or disappeared, during the Spanish Civil War and its aftermath—praised the “demonstration of the democratization of democracy that those who suffered the Pinochet dictatorship have managed to create.” Jara’s funeral was conducted in the public eye, with his widow, Joan Turner, sharing the stage with the Chilean president, Michelle Bachelet, who spoke of the funeral as “an act of love and pain for all our dead.”2 Catalan singer Joan Manuel Serrat, who had been prohibited by the Franco regime from singing in his native language when chosen to represent Spain in the 1968 Eurovision Song Contest, offered his own homage to Jara: “[t]o those who say: let the dead rest in peace, I reply: are the dead at peace? Are we at peace with them? .

  • Pdf La Huerta De San Vicente / Antonina Rodrigo Leer Obra
    La huerta de San Vicente La huerta de San Vicente fue el último hogar de Federico García Lorca, donde oscura­ mente se inició el drama, en el verano de 1936. Hay casas y paisajes cargados de acentos tenebrosos, que parecen predestinados a intimidar por no se sabe qué extraños barruntos; al conocerlos nos sobrecoge un escalofrío de inquietud, nos falta el aire y deseamos salir huyendo. El escenario de la huerta, por el contrario, era un lugar esplendoroso, con la exu­ berancia de la vega, enfrentada a Granada, la Alhambra, el Generalife y Sierra Nevada, la dilatada panorámica que el poeta contemplaba desde el balcón de su cuarto. Las estancias estivales de la familia García Lorca en la huerta de San Vicente, comenzaron en 1926. A partir de este año, las cartas de Lorca desde la huerta, están esmaltadas de des­ lumbrantes imágenes y referencias donde se trasluce la voluptuosidad que ejercía en él el contacto con la naturaleza y la necesidad de comunicar su alegría de vivir en aquel idílico paraje. Describe la casa y su entorno, el aroma del lugar y hasta el leve mareo que le produce la fragancia ambiental. A Jorge Guillen le escribe: «Ahora estoy en "la huerta de San Vicente", situada en la vega de Granada. Hay tantos jazmines en el jardín y tantas "damas de noche" que por la madrugada nos da a todos en casa un dolor lírico de cabeza, tan maravilloso como el que sufre el agua detenida». «Y sin embargo, ¡nada es excesivo! Este es el prodigio de Andalucía». ' A Carlos Moría le dice: «...Yo sigo bien en este ambiente tan dulce y lleno de belleza».2 Y en otra cana: «Hace un día espléndido.

Only three days earlier, however, Congress had agreed on a resolution which, despite morally recognizing and pledging support to victims of the Civil War and dictatorship for the first time since Francisco Franco’s death, aimed precisely to contain efforts to recuperate that past. Acknowledging “la necesidad de recuperar la memoria colectiva,” Congress em- phasized both that this recovery occur “dentro del espíritu de concordia de la Constitución,” and that its own recognition of these victims should not “reavivar viejas heridas o remover el rescoldo de la confrontación civil” (“El Congreso”).

  • Plan Especial De Protección Y Catálogo Del Área Centro De Granada
    AYUNTAMIENTO DE GRANADA CONSEJERÍA DE CULTURA DE LA JUNTA DE ANDALUCÍA PLAN ESPECIAL DE PROTECCIÓN Y CATÁLOGO DEL ÁREA CENTRO DE GRANADA MEMORIA GENERAL INSTITUTO MUNICIPAL DE REHABILITACIÓN. GRANADA, ENERO 2002. MEMORIA. PLAN ESPECIAL DE PROTECCIÓN Y CATÁLOGO DEL AREA CENTRO DE GRANADA. 1. PREÁMBULO. MODELO DE PLAN PROPUESTO. 2 MEMORIA. PLAN ESPECIAL DE PROTECCIÓN Y CATÁLOGO DEL AREA CENTRO DE GRANADA. 1.1. Introducción. El Plan se ha planteado desde su inicio como un instrumento de conexión con los aspectos más destacables del Centro Histórico de Granada de acuerdo con el diagnóstico previo que se esta- bleció a partir del Avance del Plan Especial del Conjunto Histórico redactado en 1993. Es decir no se parte de una realidad desconocida sino de un entorno cuyos problemas quedaron acotados en su día de una manera bastante precisa. Desde el punto de vista de los redactores se han introducido tardíamente mecanismos de plani- ficación urbanística en el Centro Histórico lo que ha favorecido la consolidación del abandono y de la ruina como forma de acometer el cambio de la estructura física, esta tendencia últimamente se está controlando de forma positiva al introducir mecanismos de gestión como es el Instituto Municipal de Rehabilitación que fomenta a través de las ayudas públicas la rehabilitación del Área Centro. Los pro- blemas de la estructura física son expresión de otro abandono en el terreno social y económico en cuya recuperación los planes urbanísticos son decisivos, si bien las medidas que realmente se pongan en práctica dependen de la madurez e iniciativas de la propia sociedad Una vez finalizadas las etapas del Avance, Aprobación Inicial y Provisional, el Plan se convierte en un excelente interlocutor para desarrollar iniciativas.
