New Perspectives on Arabian Nights

Sinopsis del Libro

Libro New Perspectives on Arabian Nights

Adopting a multi-disciplinary approach, this comparative study of a selection of The Arabian Nights stories in a cross-cultural context, brings together a number of disciplines and subject areas to examine the workings of narrative. It predominantly focuses on the ways in which the Arabian Nights have transformed as its stories have travelled across historical eras, cultures, genres and media. Departing from the familiar approaches of influence and textual studies, this book locates its central inquiry in the theoretical questions surrounding the workings of ideology, genre and genre ideology in shaping and transforming stories. The ten essays included in this volume respond to a general question, ‘what can the transformation of Nights stories in their travels tell us about narrative and storytelling, and their function in a particular culture?’ Following a Nights story in its travels from past to present, from Middle East to Europe and from literature to film, the book engages in close comparative analyses of ideological variations found in a variety of texts. These analyses allow new modes of reading texts and make it possible to breach new horizons for thinking about narrative. This Book was previously published as a special issue of Middle Eastern Literatures entitled Ideological Variations and Narrative Horizons: New Perspectives on Arabian Nights.

El arte epistolar en el renacimiento español

Libro El arte epistolar en el renacimiento español

A study of letter-writing in Renaissance Spain. The subject of this book is the art of letter-writing in the Renaissance period, which, particularly in the case of Spain, has been unjustly neglected. The first part examines two major sixteenth-century treatises on letter-writing, Erasmus's Opus de conscribendis epistolis (1522) and Juan Luis Vives's De conscribendis epistolis(1536), concluding that the two were composed independently, rather than one being derived from the other. The author goes on to look at two important collections of letters, Fray Antonio de Guevara's Epístolas...

Las argonáuticas

Libro Las argonáuticas

Notable poema épico que relata la hazaña de Jasón y los Argonautas que, a bordo de la maravillosa nave Argo, partieron en busca del vellocino de oro. Si bien el poema hunde sus raíces en la tradición épica, sobre todo en la Odisea homérica, la concepción helenística de la obra literaria se diferencia ya esencialmente de sus modelos anteriores. El poema, que influyó decisivamente en la poesía posterior, por ejemplo en La Eneida de Virgilio, ha sido muchas veces injustamente olvidado. Su tratamiento de la pasión amorosa de Medea revela la gran capacidad del autor para la...
