Gender and Disorder in Early Modern Seville
In this exploration of crisis in Counter-Reformation Spain, Mary Elizabeth Perry reveals the significance of gender for social order by portraying the lives of women who lived on the margins of respectability--prostitutes, healers, visionaries, and other deviants who provoked the concern of a growing central government linked closely to the church. Focusing on Seville, the commercial capital of Habsburg Spain, Perry uses rich archival sources to document the economic and spiritual activity of women, and efforts made by civil and church authorities to control this activity, during a period of local economic change and religious turmoil. In analyzing such sources as art and literature from the period, women's writings, Inquisition records, and laws and regulations, Perry finds that social definitions of what it meant to be a woman or a man persisted due to their sanctification by religious ideas and their adaptation into political order. She describes the tension between gender ideals and actual conditions in women's lives, and shows how some women subverted the gender order by using a surprisingly wide variety of intellectual and physical strategies.
Los rebaños de Gerión
Desde el mito griego -los rebaños de Gerión- al Honrado Concejo de la Mesta, la Península Ibérica ha sido famosa tierra de pastores. Sin embargo, la importancia social y económica de esta granjería -y de su modalidad más característicamente hispana, la trashumancia-, es difícil de conceptualizar históricamente, porque todo lo pastoril no sólo elude al historiador sino que resulta opaco a su mirada: enseres perecederos y viviendas temporales, modos de vida cuasinómadas y, sobre todo, actividades regidas por usos consuetudinarios. De hecho, en los estudios sobre la Mesta, se suele prestar más atención al reflejo de la actividad ganadera en el ámbito urbano que a los testimonios cotidianos de mayorales, gañanes y zagales, las dificultades de la actividad cañariega y la repercusión social y cultural de sus modos de vida. Este libro tiene como propósito identificar los orígenes de la actividad pastoril en la Península y determinar su importancia económica y social en distintos periodos históricos antes de que la Mesta, organizada por el rey Alfonso X, alcanzase su primera edad de oro en época de los Reyes Católicos y los Austrias mayores.

Origen y evolución del deporte sevillano
En la presente obra, no aparecen todos los acontecimientos deportivos que se han ido sucediendo en Sevilla en los últimos siglos, lo cual ya sería casi imposible por su volumen, al haberse convertido en un fenómeno social de masas, pero sí aparecen aquellos que podemos considerar como el origen de las actuales prácticas deportivas en nuestra ciudad y el inicio de la gran cantidad de éxitos nacionales e internacionales de los deportistas sevillanos.
Visions in Exile
Malcolm K. Read employs a psychoanalytic model which sees civilization as a manner of instinctual renunciation in this analysis of selected texts from the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. Focusing on their moments of silence and contradiction, he demonstrates that certain attitudes toward the body expressed in these texts have a basis, albeit unconscious, in a motivation which is ultimately political. The central topics, deeply intertwined thematically and theoretically, relate to the nature and development of language; to the Baroque art of Gongora and Quevedo; to Feijoo's defense of the rationalist subject set against Torres Villarroel's subversion of the same; and to the neo-classical aesthetics of Luzan and Arteaga. The result is an interdisciplinary approach that challenges traditional assumptions in both literary criticism and linguistic historiography.
A la luz de Roma. Santos y santidad en el barroco iberoamericano. Volume II: España, espejo de santos
In Spagna, più che altrove, il XVII secolo è il secolo dei santi. Non solo per l'elevazione agli altari di quell'inedito manipolatore di uomini e donne le cui virtù furono riconosciute da Roma nel 1622, ma in senso più ampio, a causa della posizione di crocevia che la monarchia ispanica aveva tra il Mediterraneo e l'Atlantico. Specchio tra due mari, la penisola iberica, vedeva riflessa nella sua luna interna la fonte di esempi di vita cristiana della chiesa primitiva, giganteschi o distorti, secondo il taglio e la recinzione dello scrittore religioso, anche se quasi sempre riconoscibili, come quelle ombre sfigurate che lasciavano trasparire i vetri spessi incorniciati da legni nobili che registrano gli inventari dell'epoca. Un po' più vicino allo specchio ispanico, gli archetipi della santità imitabile o ammirevole del tardo medioevo, santità militante, di clausura o guerriera, che mostrava un florilegio di esempi di vita vocazionale, sulla sedia, sul pulpito, nel convento e persino per i modi.
El retablo sevillano
EL RETABLO SEVILLANO. DESDE SUS ORÍGENES A LA ACTUALIDAD. En el mundo hispano el retablo se erige como una de las creaciones artísticas más complejas y consustanciales a su idiosincrasia. Su principal particularidad fue la de servir de marco e intensificar el efecto de la imagen religiosa, favoreciendo así a la integración de las distintas especialidades artísticas. La sevillana fue una de las principales escuelas creadoras de retablos desde los tiempos bajomedievales, contribuyendo al esplendor de los mismos una amplia pléyade de escultores, pintores, arquitectos, tallistas, ensambladores, etc. Esta obra pretende dar cuenta de la evolución que, a lo largo de cinco siglos, ha experim...
