Abstract

The White Indians of Mexican Cinema theorizes the development of a unique form of racial masquerade—the representation of Whiteness as Indigeneity—during the Golden Age of Mexican cinema, from the 1930s to the 1950s. Adopting a broad decolonial perspective while remaining grounded in the history of local racial categories, Mónica García Blizzard argues that this trope works to reconcile two divergent discourses about race in postrevolutionary Mexico: the government-sponsored celebration of Indigeneity and mestizaje (or the process of interracial and intercultural mixing), on the one hand, and the idealization of Whiteness, on the other. Close readings of twenty films and primary source material illustrate how Mexican cinema has mediated race, especially in relation to gender, in ways that project national specificity, but also reproduce racist tendencies with respect to beauty, desire, and protagonism that survive to this day. This sweeping survey illuminates how Golden Age films produced diverse, even contradictory messages about the place of Indigeneity in the national culture.This book is freely available in an open access edition thanks to TOME (Toward an Open Monograph Ecosystem)—a collaboration of the Association of American Universities, the Association of University Presses, and the Association of Research Libraries—and the generous support of Emory University and the Andrew W.

Abstract

"Was the seventeenth century the historical high point of Dutch development? To how many inhabitants of the Netherlands was the seventeenth century a golden age? More than the newly famous one percent? How Dutch, in European and global context, were the Golden Age and its art? To what extent was Dutch society defined by burghers rather than farmers, peasants, soldiers, aristocrats? How tolerant were the Dutch, how Calvinist, how peace-loving, how democratic, how republican? Do present day values concerning social justice, gender equality, and ecology affect our view of the Dutch Golden Age?" -- Page 7.

Abstract

Propiciadas por el desarrollo de la imprenta, las continuaciones literarias conocen en la España de la Edad Clásica un verdadero auge que afecta a todos los ámbitos de la ficción. Sin embargo, este fenómeno no es totalmente nuevo puesto que durante la Edad Media cualquier elaboración literaria se centraba en la reutilización y continuación de textos ajenos. Sin hacer caso omiso de esta herencia medieval, este libro trata de especificar la noción de continuación para la época moderna considerándola como una modalidad peculiar del préstamo. Situándose por encima de las fronteras genéricas, ofrece un estudio de conjunto de esta práctica proponiendo una arqueología de la misma y tomando en cuenta la dimensión creativa que conllevan las obras correspondientes. La pratique littéraire de la continuation est la reprise affichée, de la part d’un auteur, de personnages propres à une œuvre antérieure, généralement écrite par un autre auteur. C’est en Espagne, à la fin du XVe siècle, que cette pratique naît sous sa forme moderne, pour ensuite gagner toute l’Europe. Cet ouvrage offre une étude d’ensemble de cette pratique, en propose une archéologie et prend en compte la part de création que comportent ces œuvres.

Abstract

This volume presents a new approach to Spanish Baroque drama, inspired by Foucauldian discourse archeology, whose rare fusion of meticulous philology and ambitious theory will be exciting and fruitful both for the specialist of Spanish literature and for anyone invested in the history of European thought. Detailed readings are dedicated to some of the most prominent plays by Lope de Vega and Calderón de la Barca, both autos sacramentales (El viaje del alma; El divino Orfeo; La lepra de Constantino) and comedias (El castigo sin venganza, El príncipe constante, El médico de su honra). The "archeological" perspective cast on the plays implies an integration of their discourse-historical "foils", from pagan antiquity through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, as well as a discussion of related discourses, mainly theological, philosophical and historiographical. A separate "excursus" suggests a reconsideration of the common manner in which the discursive relation between the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, Mannerism and the Baroque is conceptualized.

Abstract

Es un honor ofrecer este volumen como señal de homenaje y gratitud a Jean-Pierre Étienvre. Organizado en cinco grandes apartados temáticos –«Lexicografía y gramática», «Luces de la ecdótica», «Primores de la prosa», «Cuestiones de poética», «De política e historia»– que remiten a las preocupaciones e intereses del Profesor Étienvre a lo largo de su dilatada producción científica, el volumen recoge veintinueve contribuciones. La cantidad, la calidad y la diversidad de estos estudios son el mejor testimonio de la impronta que Jean-Pierre Étienvre ha dejado en el hispanismo: antiguos alumnos y doctorandos, pero también numerosos colegas, grandes figuras del hispanismo francés e internacional, han querido manifestarle aquí su admiración, su cariño y su reconocimiento. Jean-Pierre Étienvre, auteur d'études désormais classiques sur le Siècle d'or espagnol, a formé plusieurs générations d'hispanistes depuis la prestigieuse chaire de littérature du Siècle d'or à la Sorbonne, où il est aujourd'hui professeur émérite. Ce volume d'hommage retrace ses préoccupations et ses intérêts au cours de sa longue carrière scientifique à travers les contributions de nombreux collègues, figures majeures de l'hispanisme français et international, et de ses anciens étudiants et doctorants. Jean-Pierre Étienvre, author of now classic studies on the Spanish Golden Age, has trained several generations of Hispanists since the prestigious Chair of Golden Age Literature at the Sorbonne, where he is now Professor Emeritus. This tribute volume traces his concerns and interests during his long scientific career through the contributions of numerous colleagues, major figures in French and international Hispanism, and his former students and doctoral candidates.

Abstract

À partir de la trajectoire spécifique de l’auteur jésuite Pedro de Ribadeneyra (1526-1611), à la fois personnalité centrale de la Compagnie de Jésus et écrivain réputé de son temps, cet ouvrage examine les rapports complexes entre écriture, institution religieuse et pratiques littéraires afin d’interroger la figure de l’écrivain religieux au Siècle d’or. Ces recherches, qui se proposent de revoir l’histoire religieuse au prisme de l’histoire culturelle et sociale, illustrent comment la Compagnie de Jésus, institution multipolaire dont le mode d’articulation reposait sur l’écrit — à la fois moyen de négociations et d’ajustements constants — sut s’adapter continuellement pour devenir un acteur clé de la première modernité. A partir de la trayectoria específica del escritor jesuita Pedro de Ribadeneyra (1526-1611), a la vez figura central de la Compañía de Jesús y escritor de renombre en su época, este libro examina la compleja relación entre escritura, institución religiosa y prácticas literarias para profundizar en la figura del escritor religioso en el Siglo de Oro. Esta investigación, que pretende revisitar la historia religiosa a través del prisma de la historia cultural y social, ilustra cómo la Compañía de Jesús, institución multipolar cuyo modo de articulación se basaba en la palabra escrita —a la vez medio de negociación y de ajuste constante—, fue capaz de adaptarse continuamente para convertirse en un actor clave de la modernidad temprana. Based on the particular trajectory of the Jesuit author Pedro de Ribadeneyra (1526-1611), both a central figure in the Society of Jesus and a renowned writer of his time, this book examines the complex relationship between writing, religious institution, and literary practices in order to interrogate the figure of the religious writer in the Golden Age. This research, which aims to revisit religious history through the prism of cultural and social history, illustrates how the Society of Jesus, a multipolar institution…

Abstract

At publication date, a free ebook version of this title will be available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. In this beautifully written and deeply researched study, Hannah Frank provides an original way to understand American animated cartoons from the Golden Age of animation (1920-1960). In the pre-digital age of the twentieth century, the making of cartoons was mechanized and standardized: thousands of drawings were inked and painted onto individual transparent celluloid sheets (called "cels") and then photographed in succession, a labor-intensive process that was divided across scores of artists and technicians. In order to see the art, labor, and technology of cel animation, Frank slows cartoons down to look frame by frame, finding hitherto unseen aspects of the animated image. What emerges is both a methodology and a highly original account of an art formed on the assembly line.

Abstract

À une époque où toutes les pièces étaient normalement désignées par une étiquette hypergénérique, celle de come­dia, Lope de Vega (1562-1635) a écrit six pièces qu’il a appelées tragedias et une trentaine de tragicomedias. Or la tragédie en Espagne était peu représentée hors du cadre des théâtres commerciaux, les corrales de comedias. Dans ces conditions, comment une idée de la tragédie suffisamment consistante pour être mobilisée dans les mécanismes de composition et de réception du théâtre de Lope a-t-elle pu se former ? Cet ouvrage explore d’abord la formation de compétences génériques du public du corral, à partir de deux ensembles en amont de la tragédie lopesque : les œuvres tragiques écrites entre 1575 et 1585 et les comedias tragiques écrites au tournant du siècle. Il revient ensuite à la tragédie lopesque proprement dite, analysant la formule que Lope instrumentalise à l’envi pour séduire divers types de public, en jouant de la plasticité d’une forme qui se laisse adapter ad hoc. En una época en que todas las obras se designaban indistintamente con la etiqueta hipergenérica de «comedia», Lope de Vega escribió seis obras teatrales que llamó «tragedias» y unas treinta «tragicomedias». Sin embargo, la tragedia española se consideraba como un género ajeno al mundo de los teatros comerciales, los «corrales de comedias». En estas condiciones, ¿cómo pudo tomar cuerpo una idea de la tragedia suficientemente sólida en los mecanismos de composición y recepción del teatro de Lope? Este libro explora en primer lugar la formación de la capacidad del público del corral para apreciar géneros a partir de dos conjuntos de piezas: el de la obras trágicas escritas al final del reinado de Felipe II y el de las comedias trágicas a finales del siglo XVI. En un segundo momento, se centra en la tragedia lopesca propiamente dicha, una fórmula que Lope instrumentaliza a su antojo en el segundo decenio del siglo XVII para seducir varios tipos de públicos, jugando con la…

Abstract

"Han Hyung-mo was a major figure within South Korea’s Golden Age cinema. The director of Madame Freedom (1956), the most famous film of the 1950s, Han made popular films that explored women’s relationship to modernity. He was also a master stylist who introduced technological innovations and fresh ideas about film form and genre into Korean cinema. This book offers a transnational cultural history of Han’s films, one that foregrounds questions of gender and style. Han’s films embody a period style that Klein calls “Cold War cosmopolitanism.” The waging of the Cold War enmeshed South Korea within a network of ties to the Free World. Fostered by political leaders like Syngman Rhee, American institutions such as the US military and the Asia Foundation, and ordinary Koreans, these networks created channels through which material resources, liberal ideas, and cultural texts flowed into and out of Korea. Han and other cultural producers tapped into these networks to create new forms of commercial culture that meshed local concerns with foreign trends.Combining extensive archival research and in-depth analyses of individual films, Cold War Cosmopolitanism offers a fresh, interdisciplinary perspective on the waging of the cultural Cold War in Asia."

Abstract

The Dutch Republic was a cultural powerhouse in the modern era, producing lasting masterpieces in painting and publishing-and in the process transforming those fields from modest trades to booming industries. This book asks the question of how such a small nation could become such a major player in those fields. Claartje Rasterhoff shows how industrial organisations played a role in shaping patterns of growth and innovations. As early modern Dutch cultural industries were concentrated geographically, highly networked, and institutionally embedded, they were able to reduce uncertainty in the marketplace and stimulate the commercial and creative potential of painters and publishers-though those successes eventually came up against the limits of a saturated domestic market and an aversion to risk on the part of producers that ultimately brought an end to the boom.
