The Cambridge History of Spanish Literature
Publisher Description
A Critique of British Marxism
In their enthusiasm to promote the notion of human agency, British Marxists have remained umbilically attached to the individual/society opposition, central to bourgeois ideology, and to its variants, such as subject/system and text/context. They are attached, similarly, to the notion of consciousness, whether exercised by individual or collective agencies. This book argues that such an approach is methodologically misconceived. It recommends, accordingly, the recovery of Marxism's classical concepts, notably the 'social formation' and 'modes of production', with a consequent focus upon the notion of the ideological (as opposed to political or libidinal) unconscious. British Marxists, it elaborates, need urgently to familiarize themselves with the work of the Spanish Marxist Juan Carlos Rodríguez. This book also advocates, by extension, a reconsideration of other social modes, notably of a feudalism based not upon ‘subjects’, as under capitalism, but upon ‘lords’ and ‘serfs’/‘servants’. The result is a radically new take on the history of ideological production.
Andalucia
Andalucia is the quintessence of Spain and yet, historically and culturally, it is surprisingly unlike the rest of the country. Its literary history began to develop with the Romans and reached an early flowering when Arabic poets drew on centuries of literary tradition, together with the landscapes and passions of Moorish Spain. Later, Prosper Mérimée, Byron and Washington Irving forged legends of exotic southern Spain that persist to this day and Spanish writers themselves captured the rich tapestry of Andalucian culture, from Cervantes' Seville to the Córdoba of Baroque poet Luis de Góngora and Lorca's 'hidden Andalucia'. With the advent of the Civil War, a new generation flocked to Andalucia and were inspired to write some of the twentieth century's most iconic works of literature, from Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls to Gerald Brenan's The Spanish Labyrinth and Laurie Lee's trilogy of books. As vibrant and compelling as the region itself, Andalucia: A Literary Guide for Travellers illuminates the very soul of Spain.

Más perenne que el bronce. El discurso autopoético en la lírica española contemporánea
Los diversos formatos en los que el ser humano ha materializado la escritura –el papiro, el pergamino, el papel e, incluso, una hoja de procesador de textos– poseen una naturaleza fungible. Infinitas amenazas salen al paso del soporte de lo artístico: el olvido que conlleva el devenir temporal, las catástrofes imprevistas (como los incendios de bibliotecas, un virus informático) y las destrucciones intencionales conforman un breve muestrario. A pesar de todo, se dijo de la poesía que era “más perenne que el bronce”, que podría durar más que las estatuas o que las superficies exclusivas sobre las que se grababa un acontecimiento importante. En este libro se estudian el funciona...
