Full textIf there is a leitmotif to American criticism of the past fifty years it is that America, exceptionally, was not discovered but constructed. Those in a new world void of self-evident tradition or the conventional markers of history, the story goes, invented an organic truth to their past experience, current interests, and future intentions. They constructed cultural memory. Fiction from the early national period, critics argue, variously reflects, exposes, challenges, and participates in this hegemonic process.
This project is dedicated to another group of American writers who insisted that the land did speak: Mormon and Gentile immigrants who walked west the breadth of a new nation and in their journals described haunted rock cities and uncanny Indian massacres. In these descriptions, poetic patterns prove more powerful than manifest appearances. The complex erosion and accretion of these rock cities and these massacre stories prompts reassessment of nineteenth-century Euro-American settlers’ relationship with the land and the land’s inhabitants and alternate interpretations of the seminal texts of American Romanticism.
In Chapter 1, I consider Idaho’s City of Rock’s mythical Almo Massacre in the context of Mormon prophecy, theology, and history. In this reading, I am centrally concerned with the effects of the story’s poetics: how does the Almo-Massacre story invent and perform the nation? The Mountain Meadows Massacre, and its translation from its authentic site to the site of its mythical reenactment in the City of Rocks, is my central concern in Chapter 2. Chapter 2 reminds us that trauma narratives are never about authentic specifics of place, time, or experience but about synesthetic sense: how things feel. This sense is artifactual, and thus heritable and transportable. This revelation informs my readings of the journals of America’s nineteenth-century overland immigrants who walked west and described not the virgin land of American myth but contested space. In Chapter 4, I turn to three of America’s canonical nineteenth-century nation stories: Washington Irving’s “Rip Van Winkle,” James Fenimore Cooper’s The Last of the Mohicans , and Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn . In these stories, the world-as-felt matters as fully as the world-as-seen.

Full textTo study the sermons of F. De sales first requires to clear up what we know about the text, the way it was handed down to us, its editions, as the corpus is composed of, oral gatherings' (recueillis) and of autographs. Then comes a very extensive study of what is currently known about the oratorical background in those days, which makes it possible to deal with the salesian theoretical texts, to locate their filiation and their originality. Finally takes place the theological perspective of the sermons which constantly confronts to the whole work as the bishop's scotism influences the whole of his reflection upon God and man. Thus can be explained the spirituality of the sermons (characteristic of the whole work), here studied in connection with a few points only. Nothing platonic about them if only some sources, quite common then (but entirely renewed by the hebraic thought and its approach), and a certain way of writing. Everything converges on the merry mystery of the visitation : oratory and style (namely the choice of images and some tropes) as well as any reflection on incarnation, on God as trinity and love, God as benevolence" bent to communication", man as an image of a trinitary God, thus partaking of the unity of diversity, easter, whitsun, the transfiguration, as well as christmas. "God made himself a man so that man may be made God" and "man is created for bliss just as bliss for man". Within other texts, the appendix is constituted of unpublished items, sermons attributed to the bishop and the research card index of F. De sales works

Full textSi propone l’analisi del tema della felicità nei Sermoni scritti da John Tillotson (1630-1694), il quale fu eletto Arcivescovo di Canterbury nel 1691 e fu il maggiore esponente del movimento dei Latitudinari. Costoro erano un gruppo di religiosi noti per la loro sobrietà nella scrittura e per l’accento posto su questioni morali nei loro scritti. Nel primo capitolo, di carattere introduttivo, viene spiegato brevemente il ruolo dei Latitudinari, la loro dottrina e la struttura dei loro sermoni. Segue poi una parte dedicata alla vita e al pensiero di Tillotson. Nel secondo, terzo e quarto capitolo la candidata affronta il tema della felicità dal punto di vista del singolo, sondando la sua interazione con tematiche quali l’educazione della persona, la conoscenza di sé e l’uso della ragione, l’amor proprio e i vantaggi che una vita moralmente retta può portare. Il quinto capitolo invece è dedicato alla visione del tema della felicità collettiva, con riferimento alle pratiche caritatevoli in voga in Inghilterra alla fine del 1600 e al rapporto del singolo e della collettività con la provvidenza divina.

Full textEsta tese analisa as moralidades vicentinas a partir dos preceitos retóricos presentes na Arte Retórica de Aristóteles e na retórica latina a fim de observar possíveis pontos de identificação das moralidades com os sermões medievais. Para tanto, investiga como a retórica influenciou os diversos tratados de prédica que orientaram a produção de sermões no período. O conhecimento das técnicas retóricas, seja em sua formulação antiga, ou em suas atualizações, mostra-se um importante meio de interpretação não só das estratégias persuasivas das moralidades, como também na compreensão do sentido mais profundo do texto. O corpus vicentino de interesse para esta investigação foi delimitado e organizado a partir da distinção dos discursos epidíticos, deliberativo e judiciário no que concerne à identificação dos valores e argumentos predominantes nos autos analisados, quais sejam: a exaltação das virtudes e da Virgem nos autos da Fé e da Mofina Mendes e as vantagens dos discursos que visam à deliberação nos autos da Alma e da Feira, além da construção argumentativa no diálogo das personagens que acusam/defendem nos autos da Barca do Inferno e Purgatório
This thesis analyzes the vincentian moralities from rhetoric precepts found in Aristotle's The Art of Rhetoric and latin rhetoric in order to observe possible points of identification of morality with medieval sermons. Therefore, investigates how the rhetoric influenced the various treaties that guided the production of preaching sermons in the period. Knowledge of rhetorical techniques, whether in its old formulation, or their updates, shows an important means of interpretation not only of persuasive strategies of morals, but also in understanding the deeper meaning of the text. The vincentian corpus of interest for this research was delimited and organized from the distinction of epideictic, deliberative and judicial speeches concerning the identification of values and arguments prevalent in the autos analyzed, namely: the exaltation of the virtues and the Virgin in the autos of Fé and Mofina Mendes, and the advantages of speeches aimed at deliberation in the autos of Alma and Feira, as well as argumentative construction in the dialogue of the characters who accuse/argue in the autos of Barca do Inferno and Purgatório

Full textIn the year 1520 the Bishop of Barcelona, General Inquisitor of the Kingdom of Aragon, Confessor of the Queen Isabella I of Castile and Royal Preacher of Ferdinand II of Aragon, Martín García, compiled 156 of his Sermones, that he had aproximately preached between the years 1490 and 1510. This work, which complete title is Sermones eminentissimi totiusque Barchinonensis gregis tutatoris acerrimi, necnon immarcessibilis sacre theologie paludamento insigniti Martini Garsie, was printed in 1520 by Georgius Coci in Zaragoza. The Sermones had two main goals: on the one hand, the aim was to achieve the highest number of conversions to Christianity among the Muslim and Jew population and, on the other hand, the Sermones pursued the consolidation of the faith of Old Christians and, also, strengthened the indoctrination of the new converted. The purpose of this thesis is to present the first modern philological edition of the Sermones by the Dominican Martín García.
