Salvador Ordonez, Jesus Vidana and Lucio Rendon While fishing in the Pacific, the engines of their fishing boat broke, leaving Salvador, Jesus and Lucio adrift in the vast ocean. For the next nine months, they survived with a rudimentary fishing rod, a Bible and a few blankets. Two of their companions died during the journey, and they tossed their bodies overboard rather than succumb to the temptation to eat them. Rescued by a Japanese trawler, they returned to Mexico to a curious mix of celebration and adulation. Jose Salvador Alvarenga Also from El Salvador, José is a fisherman who was found in January 2014 on the Marshall Islands after spending 14 months adrift in a fishing boat in the Pacific Ocean. According to his accounts, he survived on a diet of raw fish, turtles, small birds, sharks and rainwater. Alvarenga swam to shore at Tile Islet, a small island that is part of Ebon Atoll, on January 30, where two locals found him naked, clutching a knife and shouting in Spanish. Tami Oldham Ashcraft Tami had quite an adventure at sea: in 1983, survived 41 days adrift in the Pacific Ocean! She was was 23 years old and an experienced sailor who had been cruising in the South Pacific with her fiancéfor six months. They took a job delivering a 44-foot-yacht from Tahiti to San Diego, but less than three weeks into the journey, the pair was caught in the 40-foot waves and 140-knot winds of Hurricane Raymond. After the boat capsized and without a navigation system, Ashcraft was forced to navigate the yacht manually with the help of a sextant and a watch. She survived mainly on canned food during this time.

Proposing a third term that operates beyond the dichotomy of high culture and mass culture and yet offers a fresh approach to both, these essays address a multitude of different topics that can all be classified as unpopular culture. From David Foster Wallace and Ernest Hemingway to Zane Grey, from Christian rock and country to clack cetal, from Steven Seagal to Genesis (Breyer) P-Orridge, from K-pop to The Real Housewives, from natural disasters to 9/11, from thesis hatements to professional sports, these essays find the unpopular across media and genres, and they analyze the politics and the aesthetics of an unpopular culture (and the unpopular in culture) that has not been duly recognized as such by the theories and methods of cultural studies.

  • At the Crossroads of Europe, North Africa and America
    Cultures and Contexts: Spain –At the Crossroads of Europe, North Africa and America Class code CORE-UA.9544.001 Instructor Professor: Eugenio Suárez-Galbán Details Email: [email protected] Office Hours: Wed.: 5:30-6:00 Class Details Wed.: 6:00-9:00 Prerequisites Class Taking advantage of its location in Madrid, this course analyzes the ways in which Description historical, geopolitical, cultural, artistic, and popular views function to constitute and continuously transform a national culture. Specifically, the course concentrates on epistemological constructions of Spain—the idea of Spain—that emerges from competing external and internal perspectives. Students will examine in three modules how this national culture is constructed. The first analyzes Spain from North African perspectives as, on the one hand, the traditional site and myth of a lost paradise in Sephardic circles as well as in Hispano-Arabic literary traditions and, on the other, as a social collective which some contemporary historical interpretations view as a fairly unique, positive integration of different ethnic components. The second module looks at American perspectives in which the idea of Spain pits notions of Spanish imperial power and grandeur against the Black Legend, a term that Protestant circles in Europe and the United States promoted to attack the legitimacy of Spain’s New World empire. The third perspective focuses on European views and analyzes the depiction of Spain as the embodiment of German and French Romantic ideals beginning at the end of the 18th century and the reemergence of the same notion during the Spanish Civil War (1936- 39). Throughout the course, students will have the opportunity to examine some of the principal textual and visual images that contribute to the historical and contemporary construction of a national culture that emerged at geographic and cultural crossroads.

  • Fall 2016 Newsletter
    THE INSTITUTE FOR HISTORICAL STUDY VOLUME 36, NO. 2, FALL 2016 NEWSLETTER Recommending a Book to Institute Members by Ellen Huppert Danielle Allen’s 2015 book, Our Declaration: A Reading of the Declaration of Independence in Defense of Equality, is particularly relevant in this contentious presidential election year. While the author could not have foreseen the situation facing us today, in reading the book I found myself repeatedly reflecting on the contrast between the circumstances around the writing of the Declaration and conditions now. Allen, now at Harvard University, has had a distinguished career as political theorist, writing about democracy in ancient Athens as well as about current issues. (She is a contributing columnist to the Washington Post.) This particular book arose from her experience teaching the Declaration to two very different student groups: one, undergraduates at the University of Chicago, and the second, adult students in evening classes in Chicago. Allen “realized for the first time in my own life that the Declaration makes a coherent philosophical argument. In particular, it makes an argument about political equality.” Her book develops that point cogently and, to me, convincingly. She promises the reader, as she did her students, that no additional information is needed to follow her close reading. She does supply a detailed account of the writing of the document as well as background on how the members of the Continental Congress came to the point of declaring independence of the British crown. Yet the book is not burdened by too much explanatory material, making it a delight to read.

  • Juncker, Clara, "John Dos Passos in Spain,"
    JOHN DOS PASSOS IN SPAIN CLARA JUNCKER University of Southern Denmark [email protected] 91 In 1931, Ernest Hemingway wrote to John Dos Passos from Madrid: “You are the great writer of Spain” (Baker 1968: 342). The two friends both knew Spain, but Dos Passos got there first. After graduating from Harvard, Dos Passos studied Spanish language, literature and culture at the Centro de Estudios Históricos in Madrid in 1916-17, and he returned for almost eight months in 1918-19 (Carr 1984: 101-102). For six weeks he walked with his friend Dudley Moore across the Basque Provinces before returning to Madrid, where he wrote his war novel Three Soldiers (1921). In his first Spanish book, Rosinante to the Road Again (1922), Telemachus and his bawdy companion, Lyaeus, ramble along Spanish roads in search of “the gesture”, the essence of Spanish life that the Dos Passos persona hoped to emulate in words. Spain would remain important to both Dos Passos and Hemingway, from 1924 when they planned a hiking trip from Burguete to Andorra, to other times, as when Hemingway explored Zaragoza during the feria and Our Lady of the Pillar festivities in 1926. He used the railway station there in “Hills Like White Elephants” (1927) and would compare both Africa and Wyoming to Aragón in his works. Angel Capellán writes in Hemingway and the Hispanic World (1985) that “Aragón had become an integral part of his accumulated memories of Spanish landscapes” (33). In 1937, Dos Passos and Hemingway collaborated with Joris Ivens on the documentary The Spanish Earth .

    Partisanship in Balance: The New York Times Coverage of the Spanish Civil War, 1936- 1939 Julie Prieto [email protected] 208 Rosse Lane #105 Stanford, CA 94305 (650) 380-6286 Partisanship in Balance: The New York Times Coverage of the Spanish Civil War, 1936- 1939 Introduction In 1896, The New York Times was a small, conservative newspaper tottering on the brink of death with a readership of only 9,000 and years of mounting financial losses. Within three years of its purchase by Adolph Simon Ochs though, the paper had increased its readership to 25,000 and was on firm financial footing, having changed its format to eliminate the short fiction, comics, and gossip columns in favor of a heavy emphasis on news and book reviews.1 Ochs and his managing editor Carr Van Anda revitalized the paper not by competing directly with their main rivals, Hearst and Pulitzer, but by changing the paper to attract a different readership, one that was more interested in “hard” news with a heavy emphasis on foreign reporting. Particularly in the years after WWI, the New York Times under Ochs focused on increasing the number of foreign bureaus and correspondents around the world, even opening in 1924 its own radio station in order to receive messages direct from Europe.2 By the late 1920s, The New York Times had a reputation as being one of if not the most important news source in the United States for both national and international news. It was almost the national newspaper of record, with a readership of 780,000.3 No other newspaper came close in readership, scope of reporting, and importance in the national sphere.

  • Discussion Questions for Hotel Florida: Truth, Love, and Death in the Spanish Civil War by Amanda Vaill
    DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR HOTEL FLORIDA: TRUTH, LOVE, AND DEATH IN THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR BY AMANDA VAILL 1. HOTEL FLORIDA focuses on the Spanish Civil War experiences of six extraordinarily talented, courageous individuals. What was it about the social or political backgrounds of these six that drew them to the Loyalist cause? What strengths and flaws did they bring to their work? Who was pragmatic, idealistic, selfish, altruistic? 2. In her opening note, Amanda Vaill writes that HOTEL FLORIDA is about how each of the main characters relates to the truth --- “whether, for each of them, living the truth becomes just as important as telling it, to the world, to each other, and to themselves.” How did each of them tell the truth and live the truth? What is Vaill’s intent in echoing the first line of Hemingway’s FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS in the first line of HOTEL FLORIDA? 3. The United States, Britain and France chose not to become involved in the Spanish Civil War, despite the graphic evidence of civilian suffering contained in dispatches from battered cities and burning villages. Was this a wise policy? What kinds of support might have been provided? How were both sides --- the Nationalists and the Loyalists --- left politically vulnerable to the German and Russian agendas? 4. Do the relationships between the couples --- Ernest Hemingway and Martha Gellhorn, Robert Capa and Gerda Taro, Arturo Barea and IlsaKulcsar --- seem typical of traditional gender roles and stereotypes of the era? Were Martha, Gerda and Ilsa at a disadvantage because they were women? Were there advantages they exploited to further their careers? How did their work compare to that of the men they worked alongside? 5.

  • Hotel Florida Truth, Love, and Death in the Spanish Civil War by Amanda Vaill
    FARRAR, STRAUS AND GIROUX Reading Group Gold Hotel Florida Truth, Love, and Death in the Spanish Civil War by Amanda Vaill ISBN: 978-0-374-17299-2 / 464 pages Madrid, 1936. In a city blasted by a civil war that many fear will cross borders and engulf Europe—a conflict one writer will call “the decisive thing of the century”—six people meet and find their lives changed forever. Ernest Hemingway, his career stalled, his marriage gone sour, hopes that this war will give him fresh material and new romance; Martha Gellhorn, an ambitious novice journalist hun- gry for love and experience, thinks she will find both with Hemingway in Spain. Robert Capa and Gerda Taro, idealistic young photographers based in Paris, want to capture history in the making, and invent modern photojournalism in the process. And Arturo Barea, the chief of the Spanish gov- ernment’s foreign press office, and Ilsa Kulcsar, his Austrian deputy, struggle to balance truth-telling with loyalty to their sometimes compromised cause—an effort that places both of them in peril. Hotel Florida traces the tangled wartime destinies of these three couples against the backdrop of a critical moment in history. As Hemingway put it, “You could learn as much at the Hotel Florida in those years as you could anywhere in the world.” From the raw material of unpublished letters and diaries, official documents, and recovered reels of film, Amanda Vaill has created a narrative of love and reinvention that is, finally, a story about truth: finding it, telling it, and living it—whatever the cost.
