A pesar que puga semblar una mica pueril, crec que he de començar aquest treball amb una asseveració rotunda: el Cancionero general no es va editar a València per casualitat. Les edicions de 1511 i 1514 no van ser solament el resultat del moltes vegades problemàtic pelegrinatge vital dels erudits literaris de l’època que, com Hernando del Castil…[Read more]

El 22 de desembre de 1509, l‘erudit castellà Hernando del Castillo, el mercader genovés Lorenzo Ganoto i l’impressor Cristóbal Cofman firmaven a la ciutat de València, davant el notari Joan Casanova, el contracte de la primera edició del Cancionero general, que va veure la llum finalment l’any 1511. En esència, la distribució del treball era…[Read more]

In fact, the Moon template appears to date back to the earliest days of the Tarot. The proposed source or prototype is a Greco-Roman talismanic design aga…[Read more]

There is nothing like a firmly established typology of dreams – simply because the taxonomies on which existing typologies are based vary widely: They can be oneirocritical, thematic, or based on dreaming characters or their responses, on narratological functions, etc. The essays in this volume will discuss a broad range of dream types, with a s…[Read more]

English abstract: ‘Trolösa’ (‘Faithless’) is a film by Ingmar Bergman and Liv Ullmann which replicates their extramarital affairs and dramatizes personal identity drawn into the vortex of infidelity—a film which extracts from the experience of adultery all the possibilities of metaphysical anxiety, personal drama, and traumatic retrospection. (A…[Read more]

Num dos envelopes do espólio pessoano, encontram-se 56 folhas dactilografadas, quase sem emendas, com o que aparenta ser boa parte de uma peça teatral em inglês. O problema: não há indicação de título, nem de autor. Será um inédito de Fernando Pessoa? Uma tradução inglesa de uma peça olvidada de outro dramaturgo português? Num momento em qu…[Read more]

This is a book review of Stefanie Knauss, “Religion and Film: Representation, Experience, Meaning” (Brill, 2020).

Walt Whitman (1819–1892), the father of American free verse, and Nima Yushij (1897–1960), the father of Persian New Poetry, each played a central role in his respective poetic tradition. Whitman’s free verse and Yushij’s New Poetry are the results of translating the discourse of democracy to a literary discourse. In this way, there are multipl…[Read more]
