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]

Historically, tourism in Wales was invigorated by the reinvention of mountain scenery during the Romantic period when travellers gained new perspectives of the terrain from higher ground. It is also during this period that inns and guesthouses began keeping visitors’ books in which guests evaluated their surroundings and their hosts’ good ser…[Read more]

Essay on the poetry of Emily Dickinson and her impact upon literature. This essay celebrates her global reach from within societal spheres of gender. “Emily Dickinson transformed the genre of poetry from the academic salon styled idealism to the personal poignant voice of reality from the poet’s point of view.”

Early Modern Spanish literature, also known as Golden Age Spanish literature, is a well-established period in the History of Spanish literary tradition, covering from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the end of the seventeenth century, from Renaissance to Baroque works.

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]

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 adopting an holistic approach to these categories that are often juxtaposed, the seminar…[Read more]

Troy has long captured the human imagination. The story of its fall and the tales of both its inhabitants and besiegers have caught the attention of artists and their audiences from antiquity to post-modernity. It seems we are drawn to the struggle that is Troy and the Trojan War, to the paragons of virtue, and the archetypes of other, less noble…[Read more]

This article argues that Tennyson’s ‘Tithonus’ (1860) draws together ageing and decay through the poem’s formal wrinkling: moments where metrical disruption, folding, slackness, or concealment correspond to the insights derived from the perspective of great age — chiming the poet’s keynotes of disappointment, mourning, and loss. I turn to ‘Ulysses…[Read more]

The significance of old age in Kipling’s work has gone largely unacknowledged by critics who attend to the many youthful protagonists who sail, hunt, and explore their way across the plots of his fiction. This essay argues that the relationship between grandparent and grandchild in Kipling’s Kim serves as a representational strategy—at the level…[Read more]
