DOWNLOAD EBOOKA comprehensive examination of the full range of Carmen Martín Gaite's work. Carmen Martín Gaite produced a large body of work in various genres over the course of her five-decade career, though she is primarily known as a novelist, short story writer, and social commentator. Her work at times reflects, and at times defies, the pattern of development in Spanish fiction since the 1950s. This Companion offers a re-reading of Martín Gaite's works, emphasizing her early experimentalism which culminated in mid-career works (notably El cuarto de atrás), and stressing how, in the late 1960s and early 1970s when the majority of Spanish novelists were engaged in a critique of history, Martín Gaite turned to the writing of cultural history, exploring its intersection with narrative fiction in a positivist rather than a nihilistic mode. Her exploration of gender issues, particularly mother-child relations, towards the end of her career anticipated new directions in feminist thought. Discussions of often-ignored works, such as poetry, drama, children's literature, and literary translations, offer insight into sidelined aspects of this writer's literary output. Catherine O'Leary is Reader in Spanish at the University of St Andrews. Alison Ribeiro de Menezes is Professor of Spanish at the University of Warwick.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe career of Spain's celebrated author Carmen Martín Gaite spanned the Spanish Civil War, Franco's dictatorship, and the nation's transition to democracy. She wrote fiction, poetry, drama, screenplays for television and film, and books of literary and cultural analysis. The only person to win Spain's National Prize for Literature (Premio Nacional de las Letras) twice, Martín Gaite explored and blended a range of genres, from social realism to the fantastic, as she took up issues of gender, class, economics, and aesthetics in a time of political upheaval. Part 1 ("Materials") of this volume provides resources for instructors and a literary-historical chronology. The essays in part 2 ("Approaches") consider Martín Gaite's best-known novel, The Back Room (El cuarto de atrás), and other works from various perspectives: narratological, feminist, sociocultural, stylistic. In an appendix, the volume editor, who was a friend of the author, provides a new translation of Martín Gaite's only autobiographical sketch, alongside the original Spanish.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLa ópera en la actualidad es el tema que se aborda en este libro conformado por las conversaciones que sostuvo Gerardo Kleinburg con diez grandes protagonistas del quehacer operístico internacional: intérpretes, creadores y directores artísticos que piensan y reflexionan sobre este género para saber cuáles son en la actualidad sus mayores retos y hacia dónde se dirige. Así, Francisco Araiza, Barbara Hannigan y Sara María Sun, cantantes de primer nivel; Peter Sellars y Marcelo Lombardero, directores de escena fundamentales; Enrique Arturo Diemecke, director concertador y artístico; Markus Hinterhäuser y Christopher Koelsch, programadores de orden internacional, al igual que una creadora protagónica como Gabriela Ortiz y el escritor Jorge Volpi, hablan aquí acerca de los nuevos lenguajes musicales, canoros y dramáticos, de la relación entre los creadores e intérpretes de la ópera y su público, de la relevancia y los límites de la puesta en escena y su vínculo con las nuevas tecnologías, de la programación artística como discurso y como acto estético, político y social de interlocución, provocación y convivencia, del perfil actual y futuro del nuevo cantante, y del humanismo intrínseco a esta forma de arte dramático, un humanismo que necesitamos más que nunca y al que debemos aferrarnos para sobrevivir como individuos y como especie.
