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]

El presente trabajo presenta un panorama de síntesis biográfica con respecto a los poetas valencianos presentes en el Cancionero general de Hernando del Castillo. Asimismo, los poemas que contienen temas típicos de Valencia también son analizados, con el objetivo de estimular un mayor conocimiento de los hombres y la ciudad en cuyo entorno cul…[Read more]

This paper proposes a novel source for – or at least influence on – the iconography of the Moon trump in the Rider-Waite Tarot deck, which preserves the design from the Tarot de Marseille. 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]

Women’s literary expression in Latin America started as a crossroads of rhetorical practices and textual devices that included the knowledge and transmission of oral traditions, visual iconic narratives, tangible systems of record keeping, and the incorporation of the alphabetic script. I propose to look at the written production of Indigenous w…[Read more]

The horror of the situation at the center of the story of Abraham’s near-sacrifice of Isaac in Genesis has historically prompted a myriad of attempts to reconcile the apparently sadistic demands of God with normal human sensibilities. The tension–both in the story itself and in critical reactions to the story–is inherently dramatic, but the…[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]

In early seventeenth century, Francisco de Avila, Huarochiri’s extirpator of idolatries, and Guaman Poma de Ayala rejected the mestizo either for personal convenience or as a matter of concern for the fate of the Andean race. This article examines the places of enunciation from which these and other authors categorized some individuals as u…[Read more]

This essay studies the textual and visual representation of “the Indians of Peru” and their place in the illustrated edition of the Historia natural y moral de las Indias (1590) by José de Acosta, prepared by the sons of publisher Theodore De Bry. Such edition was published in 1601-1602 as the ninth volume of The Great Voyages. This essay disc…[Read more]

Based on a critical and reflective reading of Guaman Poma’s “New Chronicle and Good Government” (1615) [Nueva corónica y buen gobierno], this essay departs from the understanding of Waman Poma’s work as an “Opera Aperta” (Quispe-Agnoli 2020). Visual and written texts are understood initially as written-visual semantic fields that stimulat…[Read more]
