Cultures of the Fragment

Cultures of the Fragment places fragments at the center of reading and non-reading uses of Iberian manuscripts. The book contests the notion that fragments came about accidentally, arguing that most fragments were created on purpose, as a result of a wide range of practical, intellectual and spiritual uses of manuscript material.

'The Open Access publishing costs of this volume were covered by the Dutch Research Council (NWO), Veni-project “Leaving a Lasting Impression. The Impact of Incunabula on Late Medieval Spirituality, Religious Practice and Visual Culture in the Low Countries” (grant number 275-30-036).' This volume explores various approaches to study vernacular books and reading practices across Europe in the 15th-16th centuries. Through a shared focus on the material book as an interface between producers and users, the contributors investigate how book producers conceived of their target audiences and how these vernacular books were designed and used. Three sections highlight connections between vernacularity and materiality from distinct perspectives: real and imagined readers, mobility of texts and images, and intermediality. The volume brings contributions on different regions, languages, and book types into dialogue. Contributors include Heather Bamford, Tillmann Taape, Stefan Matter, Suzan Folkerts, Karolina Mroziewicz, Martha W. Driver, Alexa Sand, Elisabeth de Bruijn, Katell Lavéant, Margriet Hoogvliet, and Walter S. Melion.

Las joyas epistolares más íntimas y pasionales de las grandes figuras de la historia. En sus cartas, grandes figuras de la historia -desde Virginia Woolf hasta Emilia Pardo Bazán, pasando por Oscar Wilde, Goya, Emily Dickinson o el marqués de Sade- dejaron escrito el fuego que los consumía. Éxtasis, fantasías, confesiones, escándalos, primeras veces... Estas correspondencias apasionadas y desatadas muestran cómo el erotismo, inherente a la naturaleza humana, surge en la intimidad con una fuerza arrolladora que va más allá de los tabúes y las normas, y hace temblar la vida de sus protagonistas. Un tributo epistolar al dios Eros.

Brujería y aquelarres en el mundo hispánico

¿Cuál fue la repercusión del proceso de Zugarramurdi en las Indias Occidentales? ¿Qué modelo de aquelarre se proyectó sobre tierras americanas en el contexto colonial? ¿Cruzan las seguidoras de Satán el Atlántico, sobre sus escobas engrasadas con los ungüentos del agua verdosa y hedionda que vomitan los sapos? ¿Organizan sus encuentros en las landas americanas, chupando niños “por el sieso y la natura”, practicando misas negras, y banquetes caníbales? No es este un libro que pretenda replantear el “estado de la cuestión” sobre la brujería moderna, ni sus conflictos históricos, políticos o económicos, ni tampoco sobre la institución inquisitorial, sino reflexionar a...

Lecturas del cuerpo. Fisiognomía y literatura en la España áurea

La fisiognomía es una disciplina que interpreta el aspecto exterior de los seres humanos (y a veces, de animales) para sacar conclusiones acerca de su carácter, disposición y destino. Los trabajos de investigación sobre la fisiognomía de la época medieval y áurea son relativamente escasos, seguramente también porque para analizar la textualización de determinadas prácticas fisiognómicas es indispensable rastrear qué tratados fisiognómicos circulaban entonces en España y estaban al alcance de autores y lectores. La obra de Folke Gernert, Lecturas del cuerpo, aborda por primera vez la importancia de la fisiognomía en el Renacimiento y el siglo XVII español; la variedad de aspec...
