    Courting Wisdom: Silence, Solitude and Friendship in Eighteenth-Century Spain

    No full text
    Friendship as an ideal and a social institution has long been associated with the eighteenth century, and viewed as essential to the betterment of society since it promoted sociability and relationships. This essay explores how the notions of silence and solitude, seemingly antithetical to friendship and sociability, were in fact complimentary activities which interfaced with the idea of amistad. In Spanish authors such as Forner, Moratín, Jovellanos and Meléndez Valdés, silence and solitude were represented as positive, necessary components, alongside friendship, in the acquisition of wisdom. I argue that these works articulate a brand of neo-Pythagoreanism, which romanticizes the archetype of the silent master and the contemplative ideal of the solitary thinker

    “Ensayo en la noche”: Políticas de la restitución en Diario de una princesa montonera -110% verdad- de Mariana Eva Perez

    En Diario de una princesa montonera -110% verdad- (2012) Mariana Eva Perez, hija de desaparecidos, dramaturga, licenciada en ciencia política, y nieta de dos figuras prominentes de Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo crea un lenguaje propio para narrar las contradicciones que producen algunos de los tabús, silencios y eslóganes de la memoria. El nudo de conflicto que analizo en este ensayo se centra en la incómoda relación de la protagonista con su hermano, apropiado luego de nacer en la Escuela de Mecánica de la Armada y restituido cuando ella tenía veinte años. Lejos de las metáforas tranquilizadoras de la reparación, la restitución y la reconstrucción, que para la autora producen otra clase de olvidos, Diario construye una poética lúdica y sagaz que critica el uso de estos términos y el silencio de historias como la suya, opuestas al final feliz de la reunificación familiar. En este sentido, Diario abre una reflexión necesaria y nuevos interrogantes sobre uno de los temas más difíciles en las políticas de memoria de la Argentina actual

    This essay’s purpose is to explore the radical nature and trajectory of the Du Boisian prophetic tradition. A significant part of this tradition is its metanarrative’s form and function, which is first located in W. E. B. Du Bois’ writings and secondly located in seminal writings and sermons of Martin Luther King Jr. The Du Boisian metanarrative is focused on economic justice, which here is economic reparations
