Francisco de Rojas Zorrilla y Augustín Moreto

Sinopsis del Libro

An elucidation in Spanish of the dramatic intentions and accomplishments of the two best imitators of the inspired craftsmanship of Pedro Calderón de la Barca, this is the first monograph to be published on Rojas Zorilla and Moreto for at least two decades. Following an introductory section, in which she discusses and compares the differing attitudes and methods of the two dramatists, the author concentrates on their respective achievements in the genres which they practiced with enthusiasm and ability. Among the comedies and serious secular plays selected for analysis are not only their most celebrated works, but also numerous plays previously overlooked or undervalued. These lesser-known works are revealed to be worthy of scholarly attention and are also discovered to illuminate hitherto rarely perceived or appreciated aspects of their creators' dramatic art. Moreto is shown to have, besides his famous aptitude for comedy, considerable abilities for treating serious or tragic themes, conflicts and characters. In addition to his celebrated preference and capacity for dramatizing sensationalist subjects and for creating abnormal, even pathological protagonists, Rojas Zorilla is observed to have other less obvious talents – for exploiting without fuss the best resources and techniques of drama and the stage; and for creating with imaginative restraint characters that are convincingly normal and humanly limited in the directions of their thoughts, the ranges of their emotions and the extremes of their conduct.

El mundo de la infancia y otros temas alusivos en la narrativa realista y fantástica de Ana María Matute

Childhood is a fundamental theme in the works of Ana Maria Matute, and also one of the key issues for the study of the aesthetic narrative of the writer. This thesis presents an analysis of the image of childhood in the works of Matute written for adults, observed in two distinct literary contexts: that of the realistic novels and of the fantastic works. This division also corresponds, though not mathematically, to the two creative periods of the writer, so that the continuity and evolution of both the theme and the aesthetic techniques throughout the author's entire literary career can be...

La fiesta del nacimiento de nuevos sentidos. Ensayos sobre narrativa latinoamericana

El rasgo interdisciplinario de los estudios literarios de nuestro tiempo ocasiona que sean cada vez más escasas las lecturas en donde la literatura es la base de la argumentación. En los textos que reúne La fiesta del nacimiento de nuevos sentidos. Ensayo sobre narrativa latinoamericana, se ve que no se trata de renunciar a esas otras disciplinas, sino de darles el lugar que les corresponde en los estudios literarios, de tal suerte que, para el crítico, la referencia histórica no invalida el texto de la novela, las modas teóricas no sustituyen el placer de leer, y la sólida...
