Es teatro vuestra oración: Santa Teresa’s performed confession in Juan Mayorga’s La lengua en pedazos

Juan Mayorga’s La Lengua en Pedazos (2010) strikes at the heart of the compositional circumstances of St Teresa's Libro de la Vida– staging, and arguably heightening the origins of her rhetorical strategies, the sense of awareness of readership and potential censure we encounter within the Libro de la Vida. His inquisitor refuses to be complicit in the tacit agreement that the word spoken in the theatrical space can conjure new realities –insistent on underscoring the textual origin of the visions painfully and partially offered up for his and our scrutiny. I will suggest that the persistent undertow towards a meta-commentary on the unmaking and remaking of the autobiographical text creates an unresolved tension between Teresa’s eloquent ability to take the spectator to a place beyond language, and our awareness that we are in the presence of a consummate performer, the textual source for the script itself produced with a supreme awareness of audience scrutiny. The play reflects ongoing lines of inquiry in our evolving understanding of the cultural production of Teresa and other holy women of the Early Modern period.

Imagen y poesía en José Juan Tablada y Alonso de Ledesma

La manía del bibliófilo suele convertirse en un laberinto de ese tipo de encuentros fortuitos que los ingleses del siglo XVIII llamaron “serendipity”. En este ensayo, gracias a mis incursiones bibliofílicas en el ámbito de la literatura aurisecular, salió a flote un precedente muy probable del haikú hispánico (aceptada la relatividad de su parentesco con el haikú japonés) en otras formas casi ideográficas de la poesía que se cultivó siglos muy anteriores al modernismo. En este caso se trata de pequeñas estrofas que acompañaban sendos grabados, cuyos motivos emblemáticos obligaban a una expresión sintética y profundamente visual, casi gestual. En un estudio paralelo, cotejo los Jeroglíficos de Alonso de Ledesma con algunos hai-kai de José Juan Tablada, separados por una distancia de tres siglos, pero identificados en su búsqueda poética.

Labour and the free churches 1918-1939: radicalism, righteousness and religion

It is a commonplace that the labour movement was somehow nurtured within the witness for liberty of the Free Churches. Exploring this at a range of levels - including organisation, rhetoric, policies, electoral politics and people - this book demonstrates the extent to which this remained a reality into the inter-war years. The distinctive religious setting in which it emerged indeed helps to explain the differences between Labour and more Marxist counterparts on the Continent. It is shown here that this setting continued to influence Labour approaches towards welfare, nationalisation and industrial relations between the wars. In the process Labour also adopted some of the righteousness of tone of the Free Churches. This setting was, however, changing. Dropping their traditional suspicion of the State, Nonconformists instead increasingly invested it with religious values, turning it through its growing welfare functions into the provider of practical Christianity. This nationalisation of religion continues to shape British attitudes to the welfare state as well as imposing narrowly utilitarian and material tests of relevance upon the churches and other social institutions. The elevation of the State was not, however, intended as an end in itself. What mattered were the social and individual outcomes. Socialism, for those Free Churchmen and women who helped to shape Labour in the early twentieth century, was about improving society as much as systems.

Tsunami Hazard Assessment of the Strait of Juan de Fuca

This study presents and discusses the tsunami hazard posed by an updated CSZ earthquake scenerio to the coastal communities of Port Angeles and Port Townsend, based on the results of a high resolution GeoClaw simulation with 2/3 arc second resolution (about 20.56 meters) surrounding these towns. In addition, we will also present the results of a coarse regional simulation of the Strait of Juan de Fuca. This coarse study encompasses 28 regions that span the Strait’s coast, including the communities of Anacortes, Bellingham, Friday Harbor, and Victoria, BC in addition to extended areas around Port Angeles and Port Townsend. The finest grid for these 28 regions where we collected results had 2 arc sec resolution (around 62 meters). Finally, we will discuss some inherent uncertainties in the specification of the earthquake scenario, the limitations of the GeoClaw model, and the associated uncertainites in the results.

Britain and the threat to stability in Europe 1918-45

After the horrors of the First World War a dialogue began between European statesmen seeking some form of European integration as a way of achieving lasting peace. During the inter-war period this idea started to attract support in Britain even though Britain's strategic and economic interests remained focused outside Europe. This book explores Britain's relations with the continent between 1918 and 1945, focussing on diplomatic and military responses to the major crises and examining attitudes to the idea of Europe in the broader context of relations with the Empire, Commonwealth and the USA.

D. Juan de e.t.a. Hoffmann e don gionvanni de lorenzo da ponte – análise comparativa e intertextual

Através da análise comparativo/intertextual do conto Don Juan, de E.T.A. Hoffmann e do libreto da ópera Don Giovanni, de Mozart, da autoria de Lorenzo da Ponte, o objectivo deste artigo foi pôr em relevo a relação intrínseca, presente em muitas das obras de E.T.A. Hoffmann, entre a escrita e a música, explicável pela enorme sensibilidade musical deste autor, a que não só dedicou a sua vida, como também produziu várias obras musicais. Tal como na ópera Don Giovanni, de Mozart, a escrita de Hoffmann é dirigida por uma batuta imaginária, apresentando o suspense próprio dos enigmas, cuja revelação é suspensa por um entreacto – neste caso, uma carta escrita a um amigo, em que nos é apresentada uma reformulação do mito de Don Juan – entreacto este que vem prolongar o mistério e nos encaminha para um finale, em que a progressão da melodia e a sequência narrativa se unem mais uma vez. Por seu turno, na análise puramente intertextual, é feita uma tentativa de estabelecer, de forma clara, os paralelismos existentes com o pré-texto, isto é, com o libreto da autoria de Lorenzo da Ponte, bem como com outros pré-textos presentes no texto de forma mais esbatida, mas cujo peso é, também ele, significativo para a criação do novo mito de Don Juan, um homem sempre consciente do absurdo da existência, interpretação esta que abriu caminho para novas abordagens do mito, do herói e da história. Tal como em muitas outras obras, o pós-texto procura, em geral, apropriar-se do texto pressuposto, tentando ultrapassá-lo em mestria, o que acontece com este texto de Hoffmann, literária e semanticamente mais rico que o seu pré-texto.
