DOWNLOAD EBOOKDelmira Agustini (1886–1914) has been acclaimed as one of the foremost modernistas and the first major woman poet of twentieth-century Spanish America. Critics and the reading public alike were immediately taken by the originality and power of her verse, especially her daring eroticism, her inventive appropriation of vampirism, and her morbid embrace of death and pain. No work until now, however, has shown how her poetry reflects a search for an alternative, feminized discourse, a discourse that engages in an imaginative dialogue with Rubén Darío's recourse to literary paternity and undertakes an audacious rewriting of social, sexual, and poetic conventions. In the first major exploration of Agustini's life and work, Cathy L. Jrade examines her energizing appropriation and reinvention of modernista verse and the dynamics of her breakthrough poetics, a poetics that became a model for later women writers.

Para resolver esta incertidumbre, este libro enseña a «seducirse a uno mismo» primero, como una parte fundamental y previa basada en nuestro autoconocimiento y autoestima, para luego ofrecer «al otro» lo que somos de una forma atractiva y sin trucos. Identificar por qué estamos gustando y cómo gustarle respetando nuestra identidad en cada una de las propuestas y situaciones que vamos a generar.
Fictions of the Feminine in the Nineteenth-Century Spanish Press

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHow was the female body perceived in the popular culture of late nineteenth-century Spain? Using a wide array of images from popular magazines of the day, Lou Charnon-Deutsch finds that women were typically presented in ways that were reassuring to the emerging bourgeois culture. Charnon-Deutsch organizes the 190 images reproduced in this book into six broad categories, or &"fictions of the feminine&": she reads women's bodies as a romantic symbol of beauty or evil, as a privileged link with the natural order, as a font of male inspiration, as a mouthpiece of bourgeois mores, as a focalized point of male fear and desire, and as an eroticized expression of Spanish exoticism and political ambitions. These imaginary visions of femininity, Charnon-Deutsch argues, were a response to, and also helped to create, gendered stereotypes by suggesting ideal feminine behavior and poses. Further, they comprised a reassuring &"between-male&" cultural medium that provided graphic validation of women's docile body for a culture enthralled with femininity. Integrating the fields of literature and cultural studies, Charnon-Deutsch's approach to this subject is unique. Many of the images collected here are available for the first time, and they represent only a fraction of the two thousand images Charnon-Deutsch collected during her research. This book will appeal to students of Spanish cultural studies and gender studies, as well as to art historians.

Gender and Allegory in Transamerican Fiction and Performance

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBy rethinking contemporary debates regarding the politics of aesthetic forms, Gender and Allegory in Transamerican Fiction and Performance explores how allegory can be used to resolve the "problem" of identity in both political theory and literary studies. Examining fiction and performance from Zoé Valdés and Cherríe Moraga to Def Poetry Jam and Carmelita Tropicana, Sugg suggests that the representational oscillations of allegory can reflect and illuminate the fraught dynamics of identity discourses and categories in the Americas. Using a wide array of theoretical and aesthetic sources from the United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean, this book argues for the crucial and potentially transformative role of feminist cultural production in transamerican public cultures.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLas rimas de Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, así como su obra en prosa, ponen de relieve la polaridad, la contradicción, el continuo vaivén de la esperanza y la desilusión. La estructura de sus poemas responde, en la medida de su lógica interna (sí/pero no), a la misma ley de contradicción que existe en los estratos profundos del espíritu. El problema de la vida y el amor se plantea y se une con su visión del mundo. La vida, o la experiencia, puede ser bella o fea, buena o mala. Toda experiencia abre una última dualidad insuperable, que desgarra la unidad de la existencia. En su coyuntura interna, lo uno anula lo otro; un mismo objeto o sentimiento puede ser motivo de entusiasta afirmación y al mismo tiempo de apasionada negación. Su poesía es delirio alegre o reconcentrado dolor; el ritmo psicológico oscila entre impulsos contrarios. La acumulación de las antítesis profundiza los estados internos. El alma se debate entre opuestos: la razón y la pasión; la alegría y el dolor; la esperanza y la desesperanza.
