Lapia, Roberto. "La domination espagnole en Sardaigne (1479-1720) et la littérature sarde contemporaine." Thesis, Paris 10, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020PA100037.
Повний текст джерелаThis research analyses how and why the most recent Sardinian literary production updates the presence of the Spanish in Sardinia (1479-1720). It mainly focuses on the attention that Sardinian authors pay today to the Spanish domination on the island but also to the revival, in new forms, of the genre "historical novel". The aim of the work is to understand the reasons for this recovery of history from the literature, and to study through what modalities this need for memory manifests itself. The research is based on a literary corpus composed of ten novels and two short stories writings between 1986 and 2017. The texts chosen are the work of nine authors: Francesco Abate, Paola Alcioni, Giulio Angioni, Sergio Atzeni, Anna Castellino, Pietro Maurandi, Carlo A. Melis Costa, Nicolò Migheli et Raffaele Puddu, belonging to the current called "new Sardinian wave". These texts are all based on the period of Iberian influence in Sardinia. Thanks to these works, which have been widely disseminated, the Spanish period returns to the contemporary imagination. This return to historical memory is manifested, at the literary level, by its own characteristics: the constant presence of a hybrid language; the importance of orality; original use of historical material in the narration; an "other" point of view on events. This corpus has been analysed according to paradigms developed within the framework of the “neo-historical” novel (Benvenuti, 2012 and Domenichelli, 2011), studies on the South and subaltern (Gramsci, 1975 and 2008, Said, 1980 and 2000, Chambers, 2003 and 2006), and according to a “micro-historical” approach (Ginzburg, 1976 and 2006)
Léveillé, Maxime. "Le roman amplifié : musique et musicalité dans la prose de fiction espagnole contemporaine (1993-2014)." Thesis, Reims, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018REIML006.
Повний текст джерелаThe aim of this thesis is to study the interartistic dialogue between music and literature in contemporary Spanish prose fiction since the emergence of “X generation” at the beginning of the 1990s. In a context of mass culture, the rise of this group of writers, namely led by Ray Loriga or José Angel Manas, has revealed a constant and lasting permeability of novels to music. Thus, such an influence is visible in some of the works of Augustin Fernández Mallo, one of the main representatives of the “mutant” movement that appeared in 2007 and in that of writers who were not connected to any particular literary group, such as Aixa de la Cruz, Belén Gopegui, Guillermo Aguirre, Pablo Gutiérrez, ou Kiko Amat. The love of music in these writers is the basis of an interartistic project where literary invention is connected to an abundant musical imaginary world, and its textualisation brings us to consider the novel as a musical aesthetic form. Thus, the novels studied are filled with a poetics of dissemination, which expands musicality to different components of the story and increases the perceptive dispositions of the text, so that the auditory imagination of the reader is stimulated. So, the fascination for music gives birth to a constellation of works whose resonant, musical, generic, thematic diegetic and stylistic aspects will be analysed through the concept of amplification that we define as the paths used by fiction to increase the power of mimesis, create a story and signify something beyond the frontiers of the novel, thanks to music
Heredia, Martínez María del Carmen. "El legado de una herencia cultural gitana : lunares e imágenes flamencas en la historia de España del primer tercio del siglo XX." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Bourgogne Franche-Comté, 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024UBFCH005.
Повний текст джерелаThis Doctoral Thesis tries to understand and explain the importance omitted inthe History of Spain between the current cultural association of the phenomenonof flamenco and the national identity of Spanishness.The work was involved within the cultural characteristics of the gypsypeople in the «rompien» or 'gitaneidad' of the values of substantial aesthetics andattending to the modal categories not related to musicality within what we call«lo flamenco».These distinctive characteristics formed part of the repertoire andstereotype of the national identity of «Spanishness» through the use of theparticular identities of Spanish gypsies.The socio-cultural context of the gypsy people will be analysed, fromtheir arrival in the area of the Iberian Peninsula known today as Spain and theirdifficulties in being recognised as part of Spanish society due to the racistlegislative framework based on the denial of social inclusion in which Spanishpolitics has developed.Gypsies came to achieve a representative position in Spain and the worldin the brushstrokes of prestigious artists such as Fortuny, Singer Sargent andApperley. They also had a great presence in Edison's first films on the Americancontinent, such as those of Carmencita and others that were better known inSpain, such as the film María de la O (Elias 1936).The thesis will analyse how the elements of a marginalised and despisedethnic group throughout Spanish history are accepted by the centre until theybecome iconographic representations of the country.The methodology will be based on the interdisciplinary nature of thecontents and the use of diverse strategies that include: genetic studies, researchin various archives and libraries, viewing of films and photographs, personalinterviews with relevant personalities and a multitude of readings related to thesubject.Among the results of this work we can highlight: the identification of thepossible origin of the polka-dot pattern in the aesthetics of flamenco; the identityof some people in little-studied films from the first third of the 20th century; andthe value of the history of the Maya family of Sacromonte in the history offlamenco and its gypsy identity.Furthermore, in the conclusions, some aspects of the history of the gypsypeople were examined in depth and it was argued how the gypsy person hasalways been placed in a degraded position in the social, political and legislativespheres. In order to tackle the problem of non-compliance with ConstitutionalLaw, the involvement of university education in Spanish gypsy issues is apending, urgent and fundamental issue
Mohring, Agatha. "Les dispositifs de l'intime dans le roman graphique espagnol contemporain : une approche intermédiale." Thesis, Toulouse 2, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018TOU20040.
Повний текст джерелаContemporary graphic novels address intimate themes such as autobiography and everyday life. They try to represent the unspeakable, the interiority that resists direct figuration, and they have to create modalities of disclosure that do not imply the distortion of intimacy. To do so, graphic novel artists often resort to strategies used by other media. They can also refer to them in order to cause a breach in the narrative and the figuration through which the reader can catch a glimpse of intimacy. Theater, photography, sketches or travelbooks, dance or cinema often break into the panel. They can even deeply modify the form of graphic novels. Analysing nearly forty intimate and intermedial contemporary Spanish graphic novels, this thesis studies the modalities of representation of intimacy. Moreover, it aims at defining its challenges in the 21st century. It also shows that intermedial references allow the artist to articulate the text and the image in a different way to suggest intimacy. Apparatus and intermediality theories turn out to be relevant tools to examine interconnection levels between different media, as well as their impact on the figuration of intimacy. The intermedial porosity of the graphic novel also questions its media status and its position in the contemporary editorial and cultural context. Its relations with the comic and the novel are ambiguous, since they oscillate between distancing and approaching. Moreover, on the one hand, they corroborate the mediatic independence of the graphic novel, while, on the other hand, they invalidate it. This thesis aims at finding out if the contemporary Spanish graphic novel is already established as a cultural series differentiated from the comic, or if it is still in an emerging stage
Las novelas gráficas contemporáneas tratan temáticas intimistas, por ejemplo la autobiografía o el relato del día a día. Plantean cómo representar lo indecible, la interioridad que resiste a la figuración directa, y tienen que inventar modalidades de desvelamiento que no impliquen la desvirtuación de lo íntimo. Entonces, los artistas recurren con frecuencia a estrategias propias de otros medios, o se refieren a ellos para crear brechas en la narración y en la imagen a través de las cuáles lo íntimo se deja entrever. El teatro, la fotografía, el libro de bocetos y de viaje, la danza o el cine irrumpen a menudo en las viñetas, y hasta pueden modificar en profundidad la forma de las novelas gráficas. Este trabajo observa, en unas cuarenta obras españolas contemporáneas, intimistas e intermédiales, las modalidades de representación de lo íntimo, y define sus retos en el siglo XXI. Demuestra también que las referencias intermediales permiten articular de una manera distinta el texto y la imagen en la novela gráfica para sugerirlo. La Crítica de los dispositivos y las teorías intermediales resultan ser herramientas pertinentes para examinar los niveles de interconexión entre los distintos medios, y sus incidencias en la figuración de lo íntimo. La porosidad intermedial de la novela gráfica también pone en tela de juicio su estatuto mediático y su ubicación en el panorama editorial y cultural contemporáneo. Sus relaciones con el cómic y la novela son ambiguas, puesto que oscilan entre distanciamiento y acercamiento, y que, por un lado, corroboran la independencia mediática de la novela gráfica, y, por otro lado, la invalidan. Esta tesis intenta averiguar si la novela gráfica española contemporánea ya está asentada como serie cultural diferenciada del cómic, o si sigue involucrada en una fase de emergencia
Fontaine, Clarisse. "La trilogie de Rafael Chirbes ou l’histoire d’une génération." Thesis, Pau, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PAUU1038/document.
Повний текст джерелаThis work is dedicated to the study of the trilogy of the Spanish writer Rafael Chirbes (1949-2015), made uo of the Larga marcha, La caída de Madrid and Los viejos amigos, and through which the author recounts the recent history of Spain, since the civil war until the return of a democratic regime, via the Francoism period. The narrative study of each novels coupled with a collective approach will allow us to observe how the story of the characters ends up recounting Spain’s History as well as the story of the author’s disillusioned generation

Повний текст джерелаAlejandro Lopez Andrada, a poet, novelist and essayist from the "generation of sons" as Juan Vila calls it, traces the lost or disappearing past of his native Andalusia.His prose is notable for its elegiac character and despite the generic diversity that characterises his works, they all express a feeling of nostalgia.This study aims to present, in the first instance, the narrative voice that is expressed in the chosen corpus as well as the subjectivity that defines it, and, secondly, the expression of this nostalgia through the exaltation of childhood, in which the representation of the Andalusian homeland is enshrined. Finally, the last part of this work is devoted to the Christian humanism that emerges from the texts, which reflect the author's own personal faith. This particularly manifests itself in the expression of love of the Other, in the demand for the values and way of life which hark back to the author's childhood and by the weight given to the importance of religion in all his work

Повний текст джерелаSpanish Republican philosophers in exile sided with the Second Republic, legally proclaimed on April 14, 1931. They embraced the anti-fascist cause rising in the 1920s and 1930s in Europe. During the Civil war they stood among the people. The war lasted three years. 1939 saw the victory of General Francisco Franco, supported by Nazi Germany and the Italy of Mussolini. Threatened with death, they had no choice but to escape Spain. Some intellectuals experienced French concentration camps but, for the most part, they found refuge in Latin America, especially in Mexico and Venezuela. In exile, they swore to remain loyal to the Second Republic and to the spirit of the Spanish people. These philosophers belonged to the vainquished, as those everywhere in Europe who, moved by liberal views and humane ideals rised against Fascist barbarity. As a result, their respective works are still widely unknown today – despite restless efforts made to promote their thought to a larger audience for over half a century. In addition to the historical context of crisis during the interwar period, the situation of Spanish philosophy itself is suggestive. Indeed, Spanish philosophy was institutionalised at the beginning of the twentieth century only ; the Schools of Madrid and Barcelona were created. In this sense, Spain caught up on other European countries, Germany especially. These politics of cultural and intellectual renovation are first bestowed upon the generation of philosophers I study, born in the 1900s. When the Spanish war erupts, they had become professionals of international recognition. This shows the actual limits of academic philosophy, incapable of taking or unwilling to accept unorthodox ways of philosophising. The experience of exile itself serves in my opinion as a catalyst : Spanish republican philosophers in exile seek emancipation from academic conventions to philosophise freely ; that is, in Spanish and according to the spirit of the people. No doubt "poetic reason" – the true invention of Spanish republican exile – stems from this ideal of autonomous thinking
Fintzel, Julie. "Le personnage apocryphe dans l'oeuvre de Max Aub." Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015AIXM3072.
Повний текст джерелаThis doctoral thesis has benn aproached in a perspective of history of literature, and aims to consider a global thought about the nature, the meaning and the impact of the use of the apocryphal for the Spanish writer Max Aub (Paris, 1903, Mexico City, 1972). The process underpins the ambitious project of "El Laberinto Mágico" ̶The Magic Labyrinth ̶, which groups together the works dedicated to the Spanish Civil War. Max Aub breaks with a first experimental practice of literature to focus from this point onward on the game of a character firmly immersed in History. The creation of the apocryphal character takes for the author a value of existential testimony, which goes beyond the playful dimension of the fiction and reality mix. In a century characterized by wars and violence, in an author deeply marked by the Spanish Civil War and the painful uprooting experience, the apocryphal character also goes back to the question of identity, as well as the otherness experience , and the exploration of the other possible existential paths. This exploration of the limits of the narrative genre contributes to the resolution of the "crisis of the novel" in the twenties, it is also part of a double perspective, national and European, and is anchored in History, to the point where it gives of it a new vision

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis is about documentaries which, in Spain, are in a half-way between militant commitment and political disengagement. Our research focused on minority movies likely to take the opposite view of the feeble representations of social problematics, and thus, to propose a political interpretation. These productions, by coming closer to militancy, question the speech and the action of in place authorities (political and economical) and, at the mean time, show alternatives that belong to a distant or very recent past. Portmán, a la sombra de Roberto (Miguel Martí, 2001), El efecto Iguazú (Pere Joan Ventura, 2002), 200 km. (Discusión14, 2003), La mano invisible (Isadora Guardia, 2004), Veinte años no es nada (Joaquín Jordà, 2004), El astillero (Disculpen las molestias) (Alejandro Zapico, 2007), Flores de luna (Juan Vicente Córdoba, 2009), 15M Libre te quiero (Basilio Martín Patino, 2011), although these movies share a lot of things in common with social criticism, they do not focus on individual fates, but rather on collective projects. Moreover, beyond describing facts, they act as whistleblowers in order to modify the viewer’s consciousness

Повний текст джерелаJosé María Guelbenzu who was born in Madrid in 1944 is still little known to the general public. However he is regarded as one of the writers who renewed post-franco literature. In the late 70's and early 80's he was at the head of two great publishing houses, Taurus and Alfaguara. Nowadays he collaborates to magazines such as Leer, Revista de Libros and to El Pais as a literary critic. The innovative form of his first novel experimentalist El mercurio (1968), broke new ground because it expressed the author's revolt against the rigid style and structure of that period's realistic novels. This trademark made him one of the leaders of the new aesthetic and ideological trends characterizing the second batch of the 1968 generation. Being a great admirer of Marcel Proust and above all of English-speaking writers such as James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, William Faulkner and Henry James, J. M. Guelbenzu writes own style of prose which combines density, lyricism and drama to tackle themes like fear, search for identity and frustration of love. In the 1980's, he reverted to a more traditional type of storytelling as did his fellow countrymen who felt the need to use history to recover a past they has been asked to forget with so much insistance. And yet, in a constant urge to renew his style, the writer chose to create in La mirada (1987) a more open type of novel, similar to Julio Cortázar's works, wich enables the reader to perceive the writing thanks to a kind of labyrinthine game. All readers can appreciate No acosen al asesino (2001), an enigmatic novel whose main protagonist is a young Spanish judge name Mariana de Marco. This novel displays a genuine mastery of the art of storytelling which is often based on introspection and contemporary issues. His latest novel, La cabeza del durmiente (2003), goes back to the secret word of childhood and reveals the author's deep sensitivity

Повний текст джерелаThrough the combined analysis of six poem books of contemporary Spanish poetry, this thesis aims to define poetic writings and its rhythm. Rhythm is considered in relation with the notion of space. Starting with the traditional association of rhythm and meter, the first part studies how the metrical space of the writing of verses, with its structures and boundaries, involves the law and its transgression. On the other hand, the second part considers space as a “substance”: poetic writing is analyzed through its development in the language and sentences. Centered on the figure of the “line”, the second conception of rhythm also implies temporality, which is included in the words themselves (the verbs) and generated by the combination of the sentences. However, in the poem books, sometimes linearity is deconstructed by different phenomenon that deal with language (the dissolution of syntaxes), verse (the enjambment, the dissemination on various lines), and the page. The last chapter is dedicated to the visibility of writing on the page. As a concretization of the writing act, the page is also a revelation of the writer of the poem. Our third and last part is centered on the subject, its different faces and representations. Rhythm appears, at last, as a mosaic of discursive and semantic spaces that imply the speaker as much as the reader

Повний текст джерелаThe theatrical universe of Miguel Romero Esteo, undoubtedly one of the most influential spanish playwrights of the second half of the 20th century, opens up spaces that emerge as unknown worlds no one has ever explored. In his work, consisting of plays he himself calls « grotescomachies », he invents a new dramaturgy, festive, ritual and baroque, which draws on various literary, theatrical, pictorial and musical traditions. The abundant usage of intertextuality in this polymorphous and hybrid theater, post-modern ahead of his time – where the researcher can gather traces of a cultural anthropology – underlines what the Self owes to the Other in every aesthetic and ideological perception of the world. Our primary focus will deal with the treatment of language, as the creation of the dramatic speech ventures off the beaten path and outlines routes that are unusual. Romero Esteo engages in a true deconstruction of speech and thus creates an unprecedented imaginary space, where poetry and music hold a central place. The author creates a celebration of sense and senses, at once loud and lyrical, but also critical and grotesque, where every single element of the dramatic structure falls within a specific form of play which, far from just materializing a unique playground, redefines the boundaries of the theatrical space-time.« Free-range » theater, theater of freedom… this unrivalled language, which mingles animal and human, spiritual and physical, insanity and reason, earth and sky, builds a timeless universe that allows for better appreciation and constant mockery of the distinctive features of the human condition

It follows specially the discussions between people of Roussillon and Catalonians during those two centuries, to understand the way the idea french Catalonians have of their neighbours and Spain, and the one Catalonians have of Roussillon and France, act on this process of identity building

Повний текст джерелаThis study focuses upon the press industry and its evolution in Spain during the Democratic Transition and under the Socialist power of Felipe González. Democratic renewal and continuity with early 20th Century culturally liberal tradition illustrate the changes which marked Spanish journalism. Markets emerging in the mid-1980s were highly coveted by the economic press. Founded upon a regenerationist project and making a claim to quality, El País diversified its publications to create the weekly economic supplement El País Negocios. A periodical of this media organ of influence, El País Negocios targets in particular socio-economic elites, a public of young executives and entrepreneurs in quest of economic modernity. Economic policies, employment relations just as managerial representations portray the transformations underway in Spain’s business world, one which fully integrates the framework of Europe and appropriates neo-liberal models. Our analysis of political and economic discourse sheds light upon the periodical’s ideology, an approach which enhances consensus and reflects the difficult construction of civil society

Повний текст джерелаBy adopting, in a line anchored on local governance models inherited from the past, the strategy of organizing a macro-event to realize an unprecedented series of urban transformations, Barcelona has given itself body and soul to a constructive fever from which the city of today is the result. The present study searches among the cinematographic representations made between 1992 (symbolical date which includes those which were developed with the objective of the Olympic Games) and 2017, date of commemoration, echoes and symptoms of a relative and incomplete change in perception, compared to the Barcelona Model. This thesis maintains that, at the turn of the century, the old reluctance to speak about success, strongly encouraged by institutions, gained momentum and found in cinematographic creation a mode of expression and a channel of communication. Step by step, a counter-discourse emerged and the cinema helped to make it visible. Through the cinema shot in Barcelona, are narrated twenty-five years of an urban biography that has multiplied anchors to achieve and maintain effective centrality as a global city. But as it accumulated successes in its desire of internationalization, it fully integrated, as our corpus shows, the dynamics of transnational problems and became not only a model to follow but also to avoid. Synecdoche of the contemporary city in a deeply urban world in the era of globalization, the Barcelona of today seeks among its images to place itself into an axial dialogical tension between pertinence and im-pertinence
