The Oxford Handbook of Global Realisms

Autor: Vaysman

Número de Páginas: 889

Realism is an artistic practice that aims to faithfully represent reality. Historically, it has been practiced across different media, from early pictorial art and epic oral narratives, through literature and visual arts, to film, music, and digital media. However, an understanding of what it means to "faithfully represent reality" is not universal; rather, it varies from culture to culture. The Oxford Handbook of Global Realisms approaches realism as a transnational, transhistorical, and intermedial global phenomenon. It brings the diversity of global realisms to the fore, showcasing previously underrepresented and marginalized theories, practices, forms, and media of realist cultural production.

Representar la existencia

Autor: Thomas Pavel

Número de Páginas: 412

"Debemos a la novela la fundación de un espacio nuevo en la historia de la cultura; no en vano es el único género del discurso que se plantea el universo como totalidad. Desde sus orígenes griegos, la visión novelesca del mundo implica un "pensamiento", una actitud sobre las relaciones, siempre conflictivas, siempre cambiantes, entre el individuo -con sus ideales- y la realidad. Thomas Pavel, catedrático de la Universidad de Chicago y una de las mayores autoridades mundiales en Literatura Comparada, ha trazado un recorrido magistral y fascinante por la historia de la novela, desde Heliodoro a Italo Calvino, sin olvidar ninguna de las grandes etapas (la novella italiana, los libros de caballerías, la picaresca, el conte philosophique, la novela realista, la modernista, la posmoderna) ni ninguno de los nombres fundamentales del género (Chrétien de Troyes, Cervantes, Madame de Lafayette, Fielding, Rousseau, Balzac, Joyce, Pynchon), para explicar los modos en que éste ha pensado la realidad y, con ello, contribuido a definir nuestra manera de imaginar, comprender y habitar el mundo."--Provided by publisher.

The Literature of Jealousy in the Age of Cervantes

Autor: Steven Wagschal

Número de Páginas: 240

"Frequent and complex representations of jealousy in early modern Spanish literature offer symbolically rich and often contradictory images. Steven Wagschal examines these occurrences by illuminating the theme of jealousy in the plays of Lope de Vega, the prose of Miguel de Cervantes, and the complex poetry of Luis de Gongora. Noting the prevalence of this emotion in their work, he reveals what jealousy offered these writers at a time when Spain was beginning its long decline." "Grounding his study in the work of thinkers ranging from Vives and Descartes to Freud and DeSousa, Wagschal also draws on classical antiquity to unravel myths that impinge upon the texts he considers. By showing that the greatest hyperbole of each of these writers is a representation of jealousy, he calls for a reconsideration of an era's literary giants, arguing not only for a reinterpretation of settled views on Cervantes but also for a reconsideration of Gongora's role in the development of modern European aesthetics." "With its insights into the interrelationships among literature, art, and society, Wagschal's study offers background theory for analyzing the emotions in literature and is the first book ...
