Miguel Delibes y el genio de una realidad imaginada
No full textThe author explains that the genius of Miguel Delibes’ literature lies on the creation of words in which the reader can drown and feel as their own, built upon realities as daily as those of a frustrated wife who reproaches her husband’s corpse of everything he never did, the wisdom of a child who lives in a cave with his rat-hunter father or that of a hunter on the verge of death, who receives the Anointing of the Sick, believing in the existence of heaven for those of his kind.El autor explica que la genialidad de la literatura de Miguel Delibes reside en la creación de mundos en los que el lector se sumerge y asume como propios, a partir de las realidades tan cotidianas como las de una esposa frustrada que recrimina al cadáver de su esposo todo lo que no hizo, la sabiduría de un niño que habita en una cueva con su padre cazador de ratas o la del cazador al borde de la muerte, que acepta la extremaunción al creer en la existencia de un cielo para los de su clase
La Apertura al Futuro: Una Categoría Para el Análisis de la Novela Hispanoamericana Contemporánea
No full textJuan Goytisolo y la tradición autobiográfica española
No full textEscribir una autobiografía exige una compleja elección de modelos. Entre los escritores de autobiografías que Juan Goytisolo incorpora en su propios textos autobiográficos, Coto vedado (1985) y En los reinos de taifa (1986), se encuentra José María Blanco White, escritor de fines del siglo XVIII y comienzos del XIX, relativamente olvidado hasta décadas recientes. Significativamente, en la autobiografía de Blanco White ocupa un lugar importante su descubrimiento de Feijoo, cuya fama había periclitado cuando Blanco lo descubre. Vemos así la estrategia autobiográfica de preferir como modelo literario una figura que es necesario reivindicar.
A complex selection of models is required to write an autobiography. Among the writers of autobiographies that Juan Goytisolo includes in his own autobiographical texts, Coto vedado (1985) and En los reinos de taifa (1986) is José Maria Blanco White, a writer from the end of the eighteenth and beginning of the nineteenth centuries, who was relatively forgotten until recently. Significantly, Blanco While's discovery of Feijoo, whose fame had been declining when Blanco discovered him, has an important place in his autobiography. Thus, we see the autobiographical strategy of selecting a figure who needs to be recovered as a literary model
The Phase Ia Archaeological Reconnaissance Survey of U.S. Highway 32 Road Improvements, Randolph County, Indiana
No full textAbstracts are made available for research purposes. To view the full report, please contact the staff of the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology (www.gbl.indiana.edu)From 6 July to 24 August 2004, the Glenn A. Black Laboratory Office of Cultural Resource Management (GBL-OCRM), Indiana University, conducted a Phase Ia archaeological survey of the proposed road rehabilitation on S.R. 32 in Randolph County, Indiana (Project NH-100-4 [ ] CN, Des. No. 0013850), under contract with the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT).Visual surface inspection and shovel testing were conducted within the project boundaries. Shovel tests were excavated on a 10 m x 10 m grid within the proposed new ROW. A total of 241,640 m2 (59.7 acres) were subjected to subsurface survey, and approximately 43,360 m² (10.7 acres) were subjected to overview due to extensive surface and subsurface disturbance. Survey access was denied to a total of 106,400 m² (26.3 acres). The incomplete parcels will require a Phase Ia survey and will be discussed in detail in Chapter Four. These parcels are indicated in red in Figures 1 and 2. No previously recorded sites are located within the proposed ROW, and a total of 29 new archaeological sites were recorded during the 2004 investigations (Table 1). Of that total, the GBL-OCRM recommends additional testing at the Phase II level for four sites as indicated belowin Table 1. All of the four sites recommended for further testing date to the historic period and are considered potentially eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places under criterion A, B, and D. The sites recommended for eligibility contain structural, artifactual, and archival evidence of homesteads that appear to relate to the founding of the historic towns of Haysville, Union City, and Winchester, as well as the early settlement in the area of the Jericho Friends Meeting
