    No full text
    PhDThis thesis examines the impact of economic liberalism on the dominant source of legitimation in Mexico - nationalism - during the presidency of Carlos Salinas de Gortari (1988-94). It asks whether national ideology remained of value as a legitimising force given the ways in which neoliberalism challenged its social rationale and looks at the search for a new basis of consensus. The thesis argues that salinismo continued to find nationalism valuable to maintaining consensus by providing a formula which could mediate rival individual and social claims. It analyses nationalism through the content attributed to the individual and the social in political discourse of the period. Chapter 1 argues that a relationship has existed between political economy and national ideology since Mexico's independence. This has been determined by elites seeking to establish a state sufficiently stable to enable economic development. In the 20th century, conceptions of nationality provided criteria for "nation-building", the creation of an integrated citizenry free of divisions which threatened stability. Chapter 2 argues that Salinas continued to find nationalism of legitimising value to his own state reforms, but adapted it to neoliberal priorities. Chapters 3 and 4 focus on how Salinas dealt in two instances - landholding and free trade - with conflicts generated by rival conceptions within nationalism and neoliberalism of the individual and sovereignty. Chapter 5 examines how intellectuals reassessed nationalist ideology, and how the new models of community they imagined reflected the search for a legitimising formula functional to the new political economy. Chapters 6 and 7 argue that opposition parties on Left and Right also sought such a formula and assessedth e need to mediate individual and social claims. The thesis contributes to an understanding of the role nationalism has played in Mexico's capitalist development, shedding light upon its fate within accelerated modernisation

    A study of Pedro Salinas’ poetry from a hermeneutic point of view, focusing in two defi nitory core ideas: Identity and Existence, both key to understanding the ‘Who’ in Salinas’ poetry. We are thereby enabled to explore the Love tale inside the fi elds of Narrativity and Fictionality, in which Salinas’ poetry fi nds its meaning, a relative interpretation for the fi ctional-poetic world built by its author. The purpose of this study is to investigate Salinas’ love poetry from Presagios (1924) to Largo lamento (1936-39).Un estudio de la poesía de Pedro Salinas desde un enfoque hermenéutico, concretado en dos ejes defi nidores: la identidad y la existencia, claves para comprender el ‘quién’ de la poesía saliniana.

Este estudio tiene como objeto de investigación la poesía amorosa de Salinas desde Presagios (1924) hasta Largo lamento (1936-39)

    Pedro Salinas' poetry as a dialogue with the world

    No full text
    The focus of the bachelor thesis "Pedro Salinas' poetry as a dialogue with the world" was the interpretation of nine collections written by the author. The starting point of our interpretation was the dialogical character of Salinas' poetry. The aim of our research was to illustrate how the lyrical subject leads the dialogue and to which recipients does he turn. We also showed the importance and function Pedro Salinas attributed to poetic dialogue and poetry itself. The introductory section is devoted to a brief characterization of Pedro Salinas as a person and to the description of the generation of '27, which he was part of. We briefly outlined some of the philosophical theories of José Ortega y Gasset (continuous process of self-creation, perspectivism, dehumanization of art) and showed how these ideas influenced the works of Pedro Salinas. In the main part, we explained why we consider Salinas' poems dialogical and described the nature of this dialogue. Gradually, we examined the dialogue of the lyrical subject with things, with his beloved and with The Contemplated. We illustrated on certain poems that this dialogue serves to reveal the hidden reality of addressees and to enrich the lyrical subject with their perspectives. We tried to demonstrate that Salinas' lyrical subject tries to..
