From La Galatea Through the Quijotes: the Historicization of the Pastoral in Cervantes FROM LA GALATEA THROUGH THE QUIJOTES: THE HISTORICIZATION OF THE PASTORAL IN CERVANTES by Paula Ann Kellar BS, Indiana University of Pennsylvania, 1969 MA, Kutztown University, 1980 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Department of Hispanic Languages and Literatures in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 1999 FROM LA GALATEA THROUGH THE QUIJOTES: THE HISTORICIZATION OF THE PASTORAL IN CERVANTES Paula Ann Kellar, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 1999 Cervantes ends La Galatea (1585) promising a sequel, a promise he repeats several times during his literary career. Yet no sequel was produced or apparently contemplated, suggesting that Cervantes intended his promise as a way of teasing the readers. This dissertation argues that Quijote I and II (1605, 1615) should be considered as the missing sequel to La Galatea. Its hypothesis is that at the core of the pastoral mode of La Galatea is a situation of impossible love - the Elicio, Galatea story - with its internal drama of love versus arranged marriage, unresolved in the text of La Galatea. This situation, with other stories, dramatic situations, even characters of La Galatea, are revisited in the two Quijotes, forming in retrospect a kind of narrative trilogy. Chapter 1 focuses on La Galatea, showing the historization and subversion of the model of the Renaissance pastoral novel inherited from Montemayor, introducing tensions and problems that cannot be contained within the model and narrative conventions of pastoral. Chapter 2 considers the little-known “Entremés de los Romances”, showing it as an interim work between La Galatea and the Quijotes; Cervantes reworks the open-ended situations of La Galatea and begins to suggest the properly “chivalric” inventions in the ii Quijotes. Chapter 3 displays pastoral elements in Quijote I showing how famous episodes involve explicit reworkings of elements from La Galatea, passed through the prism of Cervantes’ ironic mobilization of the genre of the chivalric novel. Chapter 4 discusses Quijote II, developing the idea that as the evolving pastoral “mutates” from La Galatea through Quijote I, that is, becomes subject to historical time and change, the narrative form that becomes more evident - and explicit in Quijote II - is the bildungsroman. The “pastoral” identity and story of Elicio in La Galatea, and the “chivalric” identity of don Quijote in the Quijotes are narrative tools, modes, subservient to representing the “becoming” or process of self-discovery of Alonso Quijano (and of the aristocracy he symbolizes ironically), a process of adaptation to modernity. Where earlier critics stressed the passage from romance to novel in Cervantes, this dissertation tracks the passage from pastoral to bildungsroman. iii PREFACE I wish to thank Professors John Beverley, Gerald Martin and Stephanie Mihalic for their insight, advice and technical assistance in the preparation of this work. I am grateful for the help and encouragement of Lucy J. Felix, Richard (I), Richard (II) and Katharine Kellar, and Catherine Lopresti, my proof-readers, for their objectivity, their infinite patience and unquestioned moral support. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page PREFACE...........................................................................................................................iv I.

CONCLUSION.........................................................................................260 BIBLIOGRAPHY.............................................................................................................272 v INTRODUCTION “Writing is nothing more than a guided dream.” Jorge Luis Borges The convention of the pastoral novel begged an extension, and so, at the end of La Galatea, Cervantes suggests such a project based on the activities of selected characters whose “histories” he had prematurely interrupted, and had left hanging by design: “En fin deste amoroso cuento y historia, con los sucessos de Galercio, Lenio y Gelasia, Arsindo, Maurisa, Grisaldo, Artandro y Rosaura, Marsilo y Belisa, con otras cosas sucedidas a los pastores hasta aquí nombrados, en la segunda parte de esta historia se prometen...”1 A central issue which has plagued Cervantists has been Cervantes’ apparent lack of any attempt to keep his word. As is well-known, Cervantes repeats the promise three more times during the course of his literary career, at the end of chapter VI, Quijote I and in the Prologues of both 1Miguel de Cervantes, La Galatea, ed. J.B. Avalle-Arce (Madrid: Espasa-Calpe, 1987) 496. 1 2 Quijote II and Los Trabajos de Persiles y Sigismunda. However, are the promises merely Cervantes’ attempts to tease the reader in the same way as the invention of Cide Hamete Benengeli in Quijote I?2 Nevertheless, even if the promises are a Cervantine manipulation, they are still related to La Galatea on two levels: the promises imply a continued contract with the reader to remember and to return to the original tale. Then their repetition demonstrates a need on Cervantes’ part to return himself to an unresolved conflict which may be seen as an obsession. The process of the resolution of the conflict evolves from La Galatea to the Quijotes, where I sense it finally concludes in Quijote II. It may legitimately asked then, what is the relationship of Los Trabajos de Persiles y Sigismunda to this problem? The last novel may share some of the basic elements and tensions involved in this conflict. If, as I argue, Cervantes brings the problem he sets up in La Galatea to a conclusion in Quijote II, then literally Persiles lies beyond this problem and its novelistic trajectory. The convention of the pastoral which promises an extension invites other authors to continue the work, hopefully in the spirit of the original composition, as del Río notes having occurred in the case of La Diana and its most important sequel, La Diana enamorada. Perhaps Cervantes was just following convention; but perhaps it is much more than convention. This thesis has its genesis in my sense that in some way the Quijotes provide continuations to La 2In The Romantic Approach to Don Quijote, Anthony Close deals with how Cervantes was read differently from the 17th century than in the 19th century. Close suggests ways in which Cervantes plays both with his contemporary readers’ expectations, and with his implied contracts between author and readers. Anthony Close, The Romantic Approach to Don Quijote: a critical history of the romantic tradition in Quijote criticism (Cambridge, England: Cambridge University Press, 1978). 3 Galatea, and that one of the threads to follow was Cervantes’ identification of the stories he intended to continue. In a way, it seemed as if Cervantes were more interested in the story of La Galatea, in the themes, characters and specific episodes, than in the pastoral as such. At the core of this tale is the impossible love between Elicio and Galatea, complicated by Galatea’s pledge of marriage to a Portuguese stranger which subverts the pastoral. Specifically, this nuclear tale of “impossible love” drives the main plot and the various subplots of the novel. It posits, and at least partially resolves the related situations. It is the wealth of episodic material implicit in the central tale which I sense seems so attractive to Cervantes; the theme of impossible love permits the exclusion and adaptation of collateral issues such as the love triangle and unrequited love, social inequality, marriage for love versus arranged marriages, insincerity, betrayal, kidnaping and suicide in the name of love and even murder as a crime of passion. Could it be, then, that what critics have noticed routinely as a formal promise, a contract between Cervantes and his reading public, was considered by the author a more informal commitment to continue the project begun in La Galatea, and adapted to fit the literary mood of the moment? My idea began to evolve into an hypothesis. Were the Quijotes attempts to pursue, then conclude, the open-ended plots of La Galatea? In such a case, each time Cervantes finished a work, reality must have shown him that the original project, was in some way unfinished or inadequate; this circumstance compelled him to resume the threads of the original in yet another kind of novel. In Quijote I, during the scrutiny of the Quijano library, Cervantes mentions his own novel in a way that implies intent, and indeed movement in the direction of continuing the 4 story of La Galatea: “...Su libro (La Galatea) tiene algo de buena invención; propone algo, y no concluye nada; es menester esperar la segunda parte que promete...”3 J.A Tamayo observes, “Toda La Galatea que poseemos no es sino el prólogo de lo que hubiera sido la historia novelada de Elicio y Galatea.”4 It is at the end of the sixth chapter that the continuation of La Galatea is proposed. Henry Sullivan recognizes similar Cervantine manipulations between Quijote I and its sequel. He reasons, “A key passage for this reading of Part II (Quijote II) is the significantly placed chapter VIII. There is a symmetry

    Lemir 14 (2010): 205-215 ISSN: 1579-735X ISSN: Las transformaciones de Aldonza Lorenzo Mario M. González Universidade de São Paulo RESUMEN: Aldonza Lorenzo aparece en el Quijote tan solo como la base real en que se apoya la creación de la dama del caballero andante, Dulcinea del Toboso, a partir del pasado enamoramiento del hidalgo por la labradora. No obstante, permanece en la novela como una referencia tanto para don Quijote como para su escudero. Para el caballero, lo que permite esa aproximación es la hermosura y la honestidad de una y otra, exacta- mente los atributos que Sancho Panza niega radicalmente en Aldonza para crear lo que puede llamarse una «antidulcinea». A la obsesión de don Quijote por desencantar a Dulcinea, parecería subyacer la de salvar la hermosura y honestidad de Aldonza Lorenzo. De hecho, cuando todos los elementos de la realidad son paulatinamente recuperados por el caballero en su vuelta a la cordura, la única excepción es Aldonza Lo- renzo, de quien Alonso Quijano sugestivamente nada dice antes de morir. ABSTRACT: Aldonza Lorenzo appears in Cervantes’s Don Quixote merely as the source that gave birth to the knight- errant’s imagined ladylove Dulcinea del Toboso ever since the Hidalgo fell in love with the farm girl in the past. However, Aldonza Lorenzo remains a reference to Don Quixote and his squire Sancho Panza throughout the novel. For the knight, beauty and honesty aproximate both girls, the real and the imagi- nary, while his squire denies those virtues in Aldonza creating what can be defined as an «anti-dulcinea».

  • Sobre Crítica Del «Quijote» La Razón Que Nutren La Cultura Y La Reflexión, La Voz De Alonso Quijano
    SOBRE CRÍTICA DEL QUIJOTE Maxime Chevalier Hace varias décadas que deja pendientes la crítica cervantina unas preguntas esenciales. Me refiero a la relación entre Cervantes y el protagonista del Qui• jote, por una parte, y, por otra parte, al concepto en que tenía Cervantes los libros y la cultura libresca. Sobre ambas preguntas quisiera explicarme hoy. La primera pregunta la planteó la edad romántica al afirmar que Cervan• tes mal había entendido la grandeza de su héroe. Tal concepto iba ya en germen en la conocida frase de la Estética hegeliana que define el asunto del Quijote como «oposición cómica entre un mundo ordenado según la razón [...] y un alma aislada», frase decisiva por señalar la pauta de la crítica deci• monónica, según la cual la novela cervantina es el conflicto entre prosaísmo y poesía, realidad e ideal, don Quijote y la sociedad. Al tomar este camino, se orientaban forzosamente los estudiosos a quienes competía la definición del protagonista hacia un elogio de la locura, un elogio de la locura radicalmente distinto del de Erasmo, que es elogio jocoso de la simpleza (stultitia).1 E iban a desembocar fatalmente en el dilema enunciado por Marthe Robert: de dos cosas la una, o bien abona el lector el buen sentido cervantino, hipótesis en la que don Quijote no pasa de ser un loco grotesco; o bien vemos en don Quijote una especie de santo escarnecido, y hemos de confesar que Cervantes no en• tendió su propia creación.2 Dilema finamente cincelado —y dilema inacepta• ble. Cualquier lector de buena fe en seguida advierte que dicho dilema no da cuenta de la realidad.

    Oceánide 4 2012 Fecha de recepción: 24 diciembre 2011 Fecha de aceptación: 20 enero 2012 Fecha de publicación: 25 enero 2012 URL:http://oceanide.netne.net/articulos/art4-15.php Oceánide número 4, ISSN 1989-6328 Don Quixote and Jesus Christ: The suffering “Idealists” of Modern Religion Rebekah Marzhan (Hamline University, Minnesota USA) RESUMEN: La figura de Don Quijote ha sido siempre examinada como la de un personaje que simboliza el absurdo de la búsqueda idealista. Por lo tanto, incontables generaciones han sido capaces de apropiarse temporalmente de este caballero medieval como representante de su propia situación histórica. A través de muy diversa tradición poética, ensayística, o novelesca, grandes pensadores han elevado el espíritu del Quijote desde las páginas de Cervantes, y revivido a este loco caballero como símbolo, no solo como estandarte de la fe en uno mismo, sino también de la fe en el sentido religioso o espiritual en este mundo moderno y racional. Si bien esta evolución del pensamiento ha sido desarrollada y explorada a través de diversos movimientos literarios, el análisis de ilustraciones modernas de Don Quijote han sido ampliamente descuidadas. En otras palabras, para apreciar la evolución del espíritu quijotesco ha de prestarse especial atención a las composiciones artísticas del siglo XX, con la obra de Salvador Dalí a la cabeza. Con una edición de 1945 de la obra cervantina, Dalí refleja a través de la iconografía cristiana la figura de un Don Quijote irracional que sufre a causa de su idealismo. Palabras clave: Don Quijote, Dalí, análisis visual, sufrimiento, Cristianismo. ABSTRACT: The figure of Don Quixote has always been seen as a character symbolizing the absurdity of idealistic pursuits.

  • The Universal Quixote: Appropriations of a Literary Icon
    THE UNIVERSAL QUIXOTE: APPROPRIATIONS OF A LITERARY ICON A Dissertation by MARK DAVID MCGRAW Submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Eduardo Urbina Committee Members, Paul Christensen Juan Carlos Galdo Janet McCann Stephen Miller Head of Department, Steven Oberhelman August 2013 Major Subject: Hispanic Studies Copyright 2013 Mark David McGraw ABSTRACT First functioning as image based text and then as a widely illustrated book, the impact of the literary figure Don Quixote outgrew his textual limits to gain near- universal recognition as a cultural icon. Compared to the relatively small number of readers who have actually read both extensive volumes of Cervantes´ novel, an overwhelming percentage of people worldwide can identify an image of Don Quixote, especially if he is paired with his squire, Sancho Panza, and know something about the basic premise of the story. The problem that drives this paper is to determine how this Spanish 17th century literary character was able to gain near-univeral iconic recognizability. The methods used to research this phenomenon were to examine the character´s literary beginnings and iconization through translation and adaptation, film, textual and popular iconography, as well commercial, nationalist, revolutionary and institutional appropriations and determine what factors made him so useful for appropriation. The research concludes that the literary figure of Don Quixote has proven to be exceptionally receptive to readers´ appropriative requirements due to his paradoxical nature. The Quixote’s “cuerdo loco” or “wise fool” inherits paradoxy from Erasmus of Rotterdam’s In Praise of Folly.

  • Under the Influence of Cervantes: Trapiello's Al Morir Don Quijote
    Under the Influence of Cervantes: Trapiello’s Al morir don Quijote Dr. Isidoro Arén Janeiro Independent Scholar Yor the last four hundred years, Cervantes’ masterpiece, Don Quixote (1605- 1615), has influenced literary creation, and it has conditioned the authors who dared to distinguish themselves from one of the monsters of literature. It has been argued that there is a before and an after the first publication of the Primera parte del Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quijote de la Mancha (1605). In essence, giving it the status of being the first “original”: the first modern novel that set the tone for the process of narrative production in Spain. Afterwards, all writers owed Cervantes, and are obliged into a conscious effort to swerve from the “original,” so as to differentiate their work by taking their narrative one step away; thus, positioning their work next to the “original” as a unique creation on its own. The aim of this article is to study these aspects, and to present an overview of the influence upon Andrés Trapiello’s Al morir Don Quijote (2005) by its predecessor: Cervantes’ Don Quijote (1605-1615). It will also analyse the complexity of the Cervantes’ masterpiece and the relationship established between the Primera parte del Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quijote de la Mancha (1605), the “original,” and the Segunda Parte del Ingenioso Caballero Don Quijote de la Mancha (1615). Additionally, it will present a study of Trapiello’s Al morir don Quijote, where the betrayal of Alonso Quijano is the central aspect that defines this novel. Finally, it will take into account Harold Bloom’s work The Anxiety of Influence: A Theory of Poetry, and it will analyse the intricate relationship between Trapiello and his text, as it is overshadowed by its predecessor.
