    L’auteur présente dans ses récents développements la tradition de l’hexamètre dactylique en portugais, telle qu’elle s’est constituée depuis l’œuvre de Carlos Alberto Nunes. Construite dans une opposition au plus important traducteur d’Homère dans cet idiome, Manuel Odorico Mendes, qui créa la tradition des décasyllabes pour rendre l’épopée classique en portugais, la nouvelle tradition de l’hexamètre depuis le xxe siècle se voit en rupture, dans une nouveauté radicale.The author presents the tradition of the dactylic hexametre in Portuguese in light of its recent developments, in the wake of Carlos Alberto Nunes’ work. Conceived in opposition to the most important Portuguese-speaking translator of Homer, Manuel Odorico Mendes, who creates the tradition of decasyllables to transpose the classical epic into Portuguese, the new tradition of hexametre, from the xxth century onwards, evinces a radical newness

    No full text
    "The noted Argentine composer, Alberto Ginastera is remembered primarily for operas, Don Rodrigo, Bomarzo, and Beatrix Cenci. Stuart Pope, editor of Ginastera's works and personal friend, has written in the preface of his catalogue: ""As with his (Ginastera's) contemporary Benjamin Britten, the human voice is perhaps Alberto Ginastera's greatest influence: the operas, the cantatas, the chamber music with voice and not least the choral writing."" Ginastera composed three choral works and, notably, all three appear in the sacred genre. These three sacred choral works were written at the beginning of his ouevre, Psalm 150 (Op. 5, 1938), the middle years, Hieremiae Prophetae Lamentationes (Op. 14, 1946), and Turbae ad Passionem Gregroianam, (Op. 43, 1974). From a musical and historical view, this study will show not only his choral compositional techniques but also yield in-sights into the development of Ginastera as a composer in general."Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T12:08:54Z (GMT).

    Family altruism and incentives

    Get PDF
    The author builds on the altruistic model of the family, to explore the strategic interaction between altruistic parents, and selfish children, when children's efforts are endogenous. If there is uncertainty about the amount of income the children will realize, and if parents have imperfect information, the children have an incentive to exert little effort, and to rely on their parent's altruistically motivated transfers. Because of this, parents face a tradeoff between the insurance that bequests implicitly provide their children, and the disincentive to work prompted by their altruism. The author shows that if parents can credibly commit to a pattern of transfers, they will choose not to compensate children in bad outcomes, as much as predicted by the standard (no uncertainty, no asymmetric information) dynastic model of the family. Alternatively, parents may choose to forgo any insurance, and offer a fixed level of bequest, to elicit greater effort from their children. The optimal transfers structure that the author derives, reconciles the predictions of the altruistic family model, with much of the existing evidence on inter-generational transfers, which suggests that parents compensate only partially, or not at all, for earnings differentials among their children. Moreover, the author shows that Ricardian equivalence holds in this setup, except when non-negativity constraints are binding.Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Health Economics&Finance,Educational Sciences,Safety Nets and Transfers

    La narrativa de Rodrigo Fresán y la vertebración de una poética afterpop

    Get PDF
    [spa] El presente estudio analiza la obra del escritor argentino Rodrigo Fresán desde una perspectiva omnímoda que considera y cuestiona la relevancia de las prácticas culturales contemporáneas, con especial detenimiento en el impacto que los medios de comunicación de masas tienen en su narrativa. Esta tesis se propone, así, examinar las implicaciones de su obra respecto a tres factores del siglo XXI: la omnipresencia de las nuevas tecnologías, el distanciamiento afectivo que generan y la imposición de un modelo de vida superficial. Con el propósito de lograr una mayor claridad expositiva, el trabajo queda dividido en dos bloques fundamentales: en el primero, se realiza una revisión del marco teórico, ejercicio que permite vislumbrar la consolidación de una nueva narrativa llamada a modificar, junto a otras propuestas, el viejo eje alta-baja cultura. Esta nueva literatura, denominada afterpop o mutante, se acerca a una estética mucho más actual mediante la primacía de la imagen sobre el texto, para lo cual recurre a una sobresaturación referencial y al registro de multitud de motivos pop con los que nutrir el relato a partir de alusiones de gran explicitud gráfica. En el segundo bloque se examina cómo Fresán utiliza todos estos recursos afterpop en la construcción de sus ficciones por medio de tres estrategias: 1. Temática: la manera con la que el escritor argentino vincula todas sus obras a partir del concepto de memoria, logrando una relación casi circular que permite leer su producción como si se tratara de una obra viva. 2. Procedimental: el empleo de los diferentes recursos que utiliza el autor en la construcción de su universo referencial para desautomatizar el eje alta-baja cultura, a través de la ficcionalización de la realidad, la fragmentación, la ironía o la hibridación genérica. 3. Teórica: los ensayos que respaldan esta forma de narrar y sitúan a Fresán como referente de esta nueva literatura. Nos referimos aquí a Afterpop y Homo Sampler, de Fernández Porta; Teoría general de la basura, de Fernández Mallo; La luz nueva, de Vicente Luis Mora; Radicante, de Bourriaud, Apocalípticos e integrados, de Eco; o No-lugares, de Augé. Finalmente trataremos de evidenciar cómo la obra de Fresán supera el modelo hegemónico representado por la gran novela del Boom hispanoamericano, y lo actualiza hacia derivas de mayor inmediatez y honestidad con el lector actual. Para ello, el escritor no solo recurre a la iconografía pop y al eclecticismo multidisciplinar, sino que además, tomando como referente a escritores norteamericanos contemporáneos como David Foster Wallace, Thomas Pynchon o Philip Roth, consigue avanzar hacia una narrativa que se inscribe de lleno, de manera crítica, en los cauces de la posmodernidad.[eng] This study analyses the work of the Argentinian writer Rodrigo Fresán from an omnimode perspective that considers and questions the relevance of Contemporary cultural behaviors, specifically the impact of mass media in his narrative. This thesis investigates the implications of his work based on three 21st Century factors: the omnipresence of new technologies, affective distancing and the imposition of a superficial lifestyle. With the aim of providing demonstrative clarity, this work is divided into two key parts: the first one, carries a revision of the theorical framework that allows the consolidation of a new narrative whose goal is to eliminate the barrier between the highbrow and lowbrow culture concept. This new literature, coined Afterpop o mutant, is closer to a more current aesthetic where image comes before text by using an oversaturation of references and Pop motives to nourish the tale with great visually explicit allusions. The second part examines how Fresán uses all these Afterpop resources when creating his fictional work by implementing three strategies: 1. Theme: the way in which the Argentinian writer links all his work to the concept of memory. 2. Procedural: the use of different resources by the author in the construction of his referential universe. 3. Theoretical: the essays that support this narrating style and that make Fresán a referent of this new literature. Finally, this study proves how Fresán’s work surpasses the hegemonic model represented by the great Hispano-American Boom novel, and updates it to provide more closeness and honesty with the current reader. To achieve that, the writer does not only resorts to Pop iconography and multidisciplinary eclecticism, but also to Contemporary North American writers such as David Foster Wallace, Thomas Pynchon or Philip Roth. With this, he shifts to a narrative that endorses a Postmodern aesthetic

    Inmune a sí mismo: Cervantes en la narrative zombie hispana contemporánea

    No full text
    This dissertation proposes a reading of Zombie Fiction in Spanish (ZFS) through the lenses of Miguel de Cervantes and of Latin American Magic Realism. The dissertation analyzes zombie narratives by Alberto López Aroca, Alejandro Castroguer and Javier Cosnava from Spain, and by Antonio Malpica from Mexico. In this effort, this dissertation seeks to demonstrate how, rather than conforming to the average conventions of zombie fiction, the novels of the Spanish authors parody and play with such conventions much in the same way that Don Quijote does with chivalric, pastoral, and other genres. In the case of the Mexican author, Malpica suffuses the conventions of zombie fiction with those of Magic Realism to re-affirm the postmodern ideology of “Indigenismo” (Indigenism). The dissertation postulates that the works of the Spanish and Mexican authors offer, respectively, a continuity with Cervantes and with Magic Realism rather than an adaptation in Spanish of foreign zombie artifacts. By deploying many of the same literary techniques used by Cervantes in Don Quijote, the Spanish authors offer a powerful critique of the postmodern idealism that determines policies and practices of contemporary Spanish governmental and political entities to the detriment of the Spanish people. In the case of the Mexican author, his zombie fiction employs techniques and devices of Magic Realism to present a postmodern critique of relations between nation-states and their indigenous populations. In this manner the analysis of ZFS by the authors from Spain is contrasted with that of the author from Mexico, whose novel belongs in the Apocalipsis Island series from Spain but is the only one in the saga that takes place in an American Hispanic country. In this effort, the dissertation focuses on the following zombie novels: Necronomicon Z (2007) by Alberto López Aroca, El manantial (2012) by Alejandro Castroguer, Zombies de Leningrado (2014) by Javier Cosnava and Apocalipsis Island: México (2017) by Antonio Malpica. The theoretical basis for this work is Jesús G. Maestro's analysis of the mechanisms that these authors incorporate from Cervantes’ work in Crítica de los géneros literarios en el Quijote (2009), which also establishes Don Quijote as a critique of idealism. The dissertation will also use the writings of Gustavo Bueno, such as Panfleto contra la democracia realmente existente (2nd ed. 2020) as support for the arguments related to the politics of Spain.Embargo status: Restricted until 09/2027.
