FITZMAURICE-KELLY CAMBRIDGE AT THE UNIVERSITY PRESS 1920 phint&d in ukcat skitaih. PREFACE ONE of the main obstacles which confront the compiler of a Spanish chrestomathy is concerned with the m.atter of accents. The difficulties are greater in Spanish than in the case of French, owing to the constant changes of system authorized by the Royal Spanish Academy. In a book of this kind, it is necessary to follow the best printed editions available: these printed editions differ in detail, one follows one system of older tradition, another edition follows another system. At any rate, I have accepted this as an established fact; there is, so far as I can see, no reason for applying rigidly the modern Academic system of accentuation to the names of writers who often flourished centuries before that system was invented. If this were an ex- haustive statement of the facts, it might perhaps be possible to find a practicable via media. But it is not an exhaustive presenta- tion of the circumstances. It has been borne in mind that this book is intended chiefly for EngUsh students equipped with some knowledge of the current system. The special needs of such students have been taken into account. For them Cervantes may be regarded as the beginning of modern Spanish literature. Editions of Cervantes exist in facsimile. These editions have been followed as closely as possible; but I have not thought it necessary to puzzle readers by reproducing mechanically old systems of spelling, graphic accentuation and so forth in the case of most writers who have flourished after Cervantes's time. As modern Spanish literature begins with him, I have modernized the text of later writers and may hope that the change has been carried out without undue brusqueness. The text has been modernized except when philological reasons rendered modernization out of question; the names of writers have throughout been modernized in the main headings; titles have been regarded as, in some sort, quotations, and are reproduced as given by the authors in the prefatory notes preceding each extract. In the prefatory notes the writers' names have not usually been modernized previous to the insertion of vi PREFACE Calderon, whose active career, spread over the greater part of the eighteenth century, seemed to be a good point of departure for the introduction of the modern system. The selection of extracts is, of course, a manifestation of individual taste, but even taste is based to some extent on principle. The principles that have guided me in my choice are that each extract should be mainly characteristic of the author, and that no extract should be excluded on the ground that the average reader may chance to be already acquainted with it. Not so much novelty, as excellence of manner or of substance, justifies the insertion of each fragment. Some omissions in the present compilation may be set down to difficulties imposed by copyright law. It may be found that prose rather than poetry is represented in this volume. Of Spanish lyrical verse there is already ample illustration in a number of books. Epical verse is unrepresented in these selections, and this absence of a whole genre is the less to be deplored since the new ametrical theories concerning Spanish epical verse are undiscussed, though they approximate epical verse more closely to prose. In lyric verse Spanish is perhaps less rich than is EngUsh: in prose Spanish attained a full development more speedily than English. It may be doubted if we have in the English of the fourteenth century anything that can match in lightness of touch and gaiety of spirit the Coronica de Pero Nino^ an extract from which heads the present series of selections. This is not the earliest specimen extant of Spanish prose—far from it; but the Coronica de Pero Nino is, in my judgment, the first Spanish, book Hkely to interest the foreign reader, and in substance its matter is as novel as its style is readable at the present day. Between Spanish and EngHsh literature there are certain obvious parallelisms. These extend from the earliest period when allegory—perhaps borrowed in each instance from France—reigns supreme in both countries to the epoch of ItaHan Renaissance which is, roughly, synchronous in both Spain and England. The efforts of Boscan and Garcilasso de la Vega may be compared with those of Wyatt and Surrey. Soon after this time Spanish verse and prose attained their highwater mark of excellence and inde- pendent treatment in the original poems of Luis de Leon, and in the natural periods of Cervantes's best prose. We cannot quite feel certain concerning the originality of the CeUstina; still less PREFACE vii can we feel certain as to the origin of Amadis de Gaula. In any case both works are anonymous, and it is not till shortly before the appearance of Don Quixote that we can assert positively that a Spanish book by a Spanish author has gone the round of the world. Don Quixote at first affects the drama in France and England; but it is not suitable to the stage conventions of either country, and it is not till more than a century later that, guided by Fielding and Sterne, the example of Don Quixote begins to react on the substance of English prose. It may be possible to trace this in- fluence through some of the later extracts given here : if so, one of the compiler's aims has been achieved. As there are chronological coincidences of literary productions between Spain and England, so there are corresponding coin- cidences of comparative sterility. The eighteenth century is a desolate period in each country; national spirit had sunk to a low point in Spain as in England, and French taste governed the leaders of literary fashion in both lands. Production at this time is thin and uninspired, and the reaction of romanticism was almost a necessity, if literature were to survive at all. It is not for us to estimate the attainments of Blake, Coleridge, Shelley, Byron and Scott, or to compare the hterary gifts of each of these men with those of their conceivable Spanish compeers. Be it enough to note that, while England is perhaps somewhat more advanced in point of time, there has been no real solution of continuity in Spain where the romantic spirit has never died out since the heyday of her Hterary renown. Sufficient proof of this will, possibly, be found in the present volume. J. F.-K. SWARDESTON, AugUSt, I92O. 1 LIST OF PICTURES Titian—Carlos Quinto frontispiece TiziANO Vecelli, more generally called by some form of his first name, is usually said to have been bom about 1477 in a village situated near Venice. The date of this event, however, is disputed, and there seems reason to think that it should be fixed somewhere nearer 1489. His painting attracted the attention of Pope Julius II and later of the Doge of Venice, for both of whom— as also for Alfonso d'Este—he worked. About 1532 his genius was recognized by Charles V who appointed him court-painter, and gave him a practical monopoly as regards imperial portraiture. Some notion of Titian's powers may be formed at the National Gallery by those who choose to examine his Portrait of Ariosto, and his Bacchus and Ariadne. The one testifies to his faculty of observation, the other to his astounding intensity of imagination. He appears to have died in 1576. From a photograph by D. Anderson, Rome.

MuRiLLO—El Mendiguito 25 Bartolome Esteban MuRiLLo (161 7-1 682) was a native of Seville; here he sought and obtained the help of Velazquez. Under the influ- ence of his master, Murillo's manner underwent considerable change: the gradual disappearance of the semi-classical inspiration from his early paintings and the substitution of their relative frigidity of style by the romantic glowing effects of his religious pictures illustrate the influence on Murillo of Velazquez, Ribera and Vandyck. Murillo's talent is thoroughly Andalusian and is even typically Sevillan in temperament. It is appropriate that he should have died in Seville and should be buried in the Church of Santa Cruz.

  • Essays on Golden Age Spanish Literature for Geoffrey L. Stagg in Honor of His Eighty-Fifth Birthday
    21.2 (2001) Reviews 227 Ingeniosa Invención: Essays on Golden Age Spanish Literature for Geoffrey L. Stagg in Honor of his Eighty-fifth Birthday. Ed. Ellen Anderson and Amy Williamsen. Newark, DE: Juan de la Cuesta, 1999. xx + 258 pp. ISBN: 0-936388-83-8. Geoffrey L. Stagg is duly honored in this latest addition to the handsome “homenajes” series published by Juan de la Cuesta. The collection of essays edited by Ellen M. Anderson an d Amy R. Williamsen contains some truly excellent contributions to Golden Age studies across the board. As most readers of this journal probably know, Stagg’s research focuses on the Cervantine œuvre, and he served as an Associate Editor for Cervantes since the journal’s inception until the date of publication of this Festschrift in celebra- tion of his eighty-fifth birthday. However, the editors’ introduction makes quite clear the fact that Stagg is nothing less than a Renaissance man—trained in both arms and letters—and this diversity is reflected through the fine selection of scholars and articles that make up this academic accolade. In addition to sketching Stagg’s academic career in their introduction to this homage, the editors also bring to light the human touch of this humani- tarian. His diplomatic manner with his students, his very special relationship with his wife, and the couple’s generous dinner parties with colleagues and students all paint an intimate portrait that gives a sense of wholeness to this academic tribute. The volume itself is divided into fou r sections. The first section, titled “Comparative Contexts,” contains three essays that “contribute to the under- standing of Spanish Renaissance and Baroque works in the light of the classi- cal letters and the Elizabethan literature Stagg knows and loves so well” (xvii).

  • Multiperspectivism in the Novels of the Spanish Civil War Hans Lauge Hansen, Aarhus University
    Orbis Litterarum 66:2 148–166, 2011 Printed in Malaysia. All rights reserved Multiperspectivism in the Novels of the Spanish Civil War Hans Lauge Hansen, Aarhus University Since the turn of the millennium, Spanish society has been engaged with an intense public and political debate about the Civil War and the post-war period. The number of publications has exploded within all genres, and narrative fiction clearly participates in the negotiation of the cultural memory of this period. Taking its point of departure in Todorov’s concept of restorative narratives, this article investigates whether contemporary Spanish novels continue a Manichaean division between ‘us’ and ‘them’, and whether it is possible to detect a difference in narrative patterns before and after the turn of the millennium. Keywords: cultural memory, Spanish Civil War, restorative narrative, multi- perspectivism, Spain. Since the turn of the millennium, Spain has witnessed a renewed public and political debate about Spain’s history in the twentieth century which has focused particularly on the memory of the Civil War of 1936–1939 and the immediate post-war period. The number of publications dedicated to this issue has exploded, not only in historiographic discourse, but within all genres, including novels, biography and autobiography.1 Through dialogue with other social discourses, narrative fiction clearly participates in the construction of the cultural memory of a given society. But what is the nature of this involvement? This article engages this question by examining the change in narrative perspective in the contemporary Spanish novel and by discussing the possible cultural and social impact of this change.

  • The Gospel, According to Lazarillo: Parodia Sacra & Picaresque
    To Hell with Christ!—the Gospel, According to Lazarillo: Parodia Sacra & Picaresque Signifying on the Novel as Genre Andrew R. Belton A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of English & Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Dr. Jessica Wolfe Dr. James Thompson Dr. Beverly Taylor ©2009 Andrew R. Belton ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Andrew R. Belton: To Hell with Christ!—the Gospel, According to Lazarillo: Parodia Sacra & Picaresque Signifying on the Novel as Genre (Under the direction of Jessica Lynn Wolfe) This thesis looks at an anonymously-authored work of early modern Spanish prose fiction, namely La vida de Lazarillo de Tormes, y de sus fortunas y adversidades (The Life of Lazarillo de Tormes: his Fortunes and Misfortunes). It makes the argument that Lazarillo, as a progenitor-text for the picaresque and novelistic traditions, initiates the use of intertextual signifying and the play of the parodic as an imaginative practice that will come to define twentieth century notions of the novel as a generic form with identifiable techniques. Major portions of this essay read parody as it functions within the text, both thematically and structurally; applying Bakhtinian notions of parodia sacra to discuss methodology, form and the construction of meaning within the work. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Throughout my work on this thesis, a number of people have been dedicated to providing support for its completion. I wish to thank several of these persons for their availability, feedback, and confidence in seeing this project to its close.

  • Sufis, Kabbalists and Christian Philosophers in Medieval Spain
    New York Open Center and Lapis Magazine Online Present Sufis, Kabbalists and Christian Philosophers In Medieval Spain Granada, September 15th to 20th, 2007 Co-sponsored with The Ibn ‘Arabi Society, Centro Abierto Tomillo, The Lumen Foundation www.EsotericQuest.org Joinndalusia, orus Al-Andalus on, developed a an extraordinary Quest … culture of religious tolerance in medieval Spain that produced works of enduring spiritual and artistic genius. Today, when the world seems to teeter on the edge of major religious conflict, this enlightened period when Muslims, Jews and Christians lived in relative Aamity serves as a powerful reminder of the achievements of co-existence or ‘conviviencia’. This was the time when the Zohar, the seminal kabbalistic work, was compiled by Moses de Leon. It was also the period of Ibn ‘Arabi, the Sheik Al-Akbar, the greatest of Sufi teachers, while further north in Majorca the Christian philosopher, Ramon Llull, developed a form of wisdom that drew from the deepest esoteric teachings of all three cultures. Join us on a quest for the beauty and spiritual philosophy of this largely forgotten age, a time when the magical city of Cordoba contained a library of scores of thousands of books while the largest collection elsewhere in Europe had no more than 400. The Islamic culture that conquered Spain went on to translate the works of the ancient Greek philosophers and was familiar with the secrets of alchemy. In this vibrant world, Kabbalists intermingled with Sufis, and streams of wisdom flowed into Spain from both the far East and the North. This sixth in the Open Center’s series of conferences on the Western Esoteric Tradition will take place in Granada, the evocative and beautiful city lying below the snowy Sierra Nevada that, alone on the Iberian Peninsula, remained under Muslim control until the fateful year of 1492.

  • TRANSLATION and LITERATURES in SPAIN, 20032012 Mario
    TRANSLATION AND LITERATURES IN SPAIN, 2003­2012 Mario Santana The University of Chicago Recibido: 24 julio 2015 Aceptado: 19 septiembre 2015 2015 Over the course of the last two decades, the rise of Iberian Studies within the US academy has forced a reconceptualization of monolithic (and monolingual) understandings of national literatures that were (and still are) one of the hallmarks of Hispanism and other institutionalized disciplinary fields of cultural scholarship. One of the most obvious effects of this shift has been the vindication of previously marginalized languages and cultures as objects of inquiry, and the need to articulate epistemological models and practices that bring to light both their particular trajectories and the complexities of their coexistence and interaction. In this context, the success of Iberian Studies as a productive epistemological model will depend on the the formulation and implementation of theoretically­informed practices that would open new venues for the expansion of the material and disciplinary archives, which in turn may facilitate the discovery and articulation of new critical problems that the previous paradigm did not identify as such.(1) In this essay, I would like to focus on one of the areas in need of further exploration —the role of translation in the constitution of national literatures and, in particular, in the dynamics of interliterary relations within the Iberian Peninsula. It is fair to say that the study of translation has remained in large part disassociated from the historical

When the Bubble Bursts: A Spatial Interrogation of Spanish Crisis in José Ángel Mañas’ Sospecha Abstract José Ángel Mañas’s detective novel Sospecha investigates the consequences of the 2008 economic crisis by focusing on the unsustainable development of the Madrid urban area. I argue that the novel’s depiction of the Spanish capital serves as a case study for coming to terms with the identity and effects of crisis. By employing elements of the police procedural, Sospecha creates multiple trajectories through these suburban communities, allowing the novel to trace the impacts of a globalized economic model that presents these spaces as products of consumption.
