THE WOMEN IN THE MEN'S CLUB

WOMEN MODERNISTA POETS IN CUBA (1880-1910)

2021 || Paperback || Catharina Vallejo || Monbeaulivre.fr || met inkijkexemplaar

The feminine, or 'Woman,' was one of the main inspirations in Modernismo's expression, and the still current exclusion of women poets from this movement's canon is contrary to its own foundational concepts of innovation, rupture and the importance of personal expression. This book examines the philosophical and epistemological underpinnings of Modernismo to show that there were indeed women who expressed beauty, broke with tradition and, in their search for a female Modernista voice, were inn...

Dividuals

The Split Human and Humanist Split in Early Modern Spanish Literature

2021 || Paperback || Julio Baena || Monbeaulivre.fr

Dividuals explores the other side, or hidden side of modern subjectivity, as seen in (mostly four) early modern Spanish classics. Veering away from the hypertrophied notions of individuality and identity, which constitute the bases of our own post-humanism and even anti-humanism, this essay looks into how, as humans, and as humanists, we have a long history of showing dividuality, a never-ending split in our beings. The split manifests itself in the humanist’s split between historicist, soc...

What Forms Mean -- Ce que les forment veulent dire

2021 || Paperback || Chris Andrews || Monbeaulivre.fr || met inkijkexemplaar

La notion de forme continue à susciter des débats théoriques dans les études littéraires et dans l’esthétique. Qu’est-ce qu’une forme, au juste? Le consensus sur une définition n’est pas près de s’imposer, d’autant plus que les théoriciens qui s’intéressent à cette notion ont des formations disciplinaires diverses (en linguistique, lettres ou philosophie) et peinent souvent à s’entendre. Comme l’a rappelé récemment Patrice Maniglier dans une défense vigoureuse...
