The Routledge Research Companion to the Works of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz

The Routledge Research Companion to the Works of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz

Called by her contemporaries the Tenth Muse Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1648–1695) has continued to stir both popular and scholarly imaginations. While generations of Mexican schoolchildren have memorized her satirical verses only since the 1970s has her writing received consistent scholarly attention. focused on complexities of female authorship in the political religious and intellectual context of colonial New Spain. This volume examines those areas of scholarship that illuminate her work including her status as an iconic figure in Latin American and Baroque letters popular culture in Mexico and the United States and feminism. By addressing the multiple frameworks through which to read her work this research guide serves as a useful resource for scholars and students of the Baroque in Europe and Latin America colonial Novohispanic religious institutions and women’s and gender studies. The chapters are distributed across four sections that deal broadly with different aspects of Sor Juana's life and work: institutional contexts (political economic religious intellectual and legal); reception history; literary genres; and directions for future research. Each section is designed to provide the reader with a clear understanding of the current state of the research on those topics and the academic debates within each field. | The Routledge Research Companion to the Works of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz

Sor Juana In de la Cruz and the Gender Politics of Knowledge in Colonial Mexico

Sor Juana In de la Cruz and the Gender Politics of Knowledge in Colonial Mexico

Each of the book's five chapters evokes a colonial Mexican cultural and intellectual sphere: the library anatomy and medicine spirituality classical learning and publishing and printing. Using an array of literary texts and historical documents and alongside secondary historical and critical materials the author Stephanie Kirk demonstrates how Sor Juana used her poetry and other works to inscribe herself within the discourses associated with these cultural institutions and discursive spheres and thus challenge the male exclusivity of their precepts and precincts. Kirk illustrates how Sor Juana subverted the masculine character of erudition writing herself into an all-male community of scholars. From there Sor Juana clearly questions the gender politics at play in her exclusion and undermines what seems to be the inextricable link previously forged between masculinity and institutional knowledge. Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz and the Gender Politics of Knowledge in Colonial Mexico opens up new readings of her texts through the lens of cultural and intellectual history and material culture in order to shed light on the production of knowledge in the seventeenth-century colonial Mexican society of which she was both a product and an anomaly. | Sor Juana In�de la Cruz and the Gender Politics of Knowledge in Colonial Mexico

The Cristos yacentes of Gregorio Fernández Polychrome Sculptures of the Supine Christ in Seventeenth-Century Spain

The Cristos yacentes of Gregorio Fernández Polychrome Sculptures of the Supine Christ in Seventeenth-Century Spain

Analyzing seventeenth-century images of the dead Christ produced by Gregorio Fern¡ndez author Ilenia Col³n Mendoza investigates how and why the artist and his patrons manipulated these images in connection with the religious literature of the time to produce striking images that moved the faithful to devotion. In so doing she contributes new findings to the topic of Spanish sacred sculpture. The author re-examines these sculptures not only in the context of a larger sculptural group but also as independent sculptures that were intended as powerful aids to contemplation and devotion as was prescribed by the writings of San Juan de la Cruz and Luis de Granada. Combining study of the sculptural works with that of liturgical sources she reveals the connection between the written word and the sculpted work of art. Through this interdisciplinary approach the author links Fern¡ndez's sculptural program with the strategic objectives of major patrons of the period such as the Duke of Lerma and King Philip III of Spain both fervent defenders of the Catholic faith. | The Cristos yacentes of Gregorio Fernández Polychrome Sculptures of the Supine Christ in Seventeenth-Century Spain

US Hegemony and the Americas Power and Economic Statecraft in International Relations

US Hegemony and the Americas Power and Economic Statecraft in International Relations

In this book Arturo Santa-Cruz advances an understanding of power as a social relationship and applies it consistently to the economic realm in United States relations with other countries of the Western Hemisphere. Following the academic and popular debate on the ebb and flow of US hegemony this work centers the analysis in a critical case for the exercise of US power through its economic statecraft: the Americas—its historical zone of influence. The rationale for the regional focus is methodological: if it can be shown that Washington's sway has decreased in the area since the early 1970s when the discussion about this matter started it can be safely assumed that the same has occurred in other latitudes. The analysis focuses on three regions: North America Central America and South America. Since each region contains countries that have at times maintained very different relationships with the United States the findings contribute to a better understanding of the practice of US power in the sub-region in question adding greater variability to the overall results. US Hegemony and the Americas: Power and Economic Statecraft in International Relations is an invaluable resource for students and scholars interested in Latin American History and Politics North American Regional Integration International Relations Economic Statecraft Political Economy and Comparative Politics. | US Hegemony and the Americas Power and Economic Statecraft in International Relations

This book follows Henry Klumb’s life in architecture from Cologne Germany to Puerto Rico. Arriving on the island Klumb was a one-time German immigrant a moderately successful designer and previously a senior draftsman with Frank Lloyd Wright. Over the next forty years Klumb would emerge as Puerto Rico’s most prolific locally well-known and celebrated modern architect. In addition to becoming a leading figure in Latin American modern architecture Klumb also became one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s most accomplished protégés and an architect with a highly attuned social and environmental consciousness. Cruz explores his life works and legacy through the lens of a sense of place defined as the beliefs that people adopt actions undertaken and feelings developed towards specific locations and spaces. He argues that the architect’s sense of place was a defining quality of his life and work most evident in the houses he designed and built in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico’s Henry Klumb offers a historical narrative culminating in a series of architectural analyses focusing on four key design strategies employed in Klumb’s work: vernacular architecture the grid and the landscape dense urban spaces and open air rooms. This book is aimed at researchers academics and postgraduate students interested in Latin American architecture modernism and architectural history. | Puerto Rico’s Henry Klumb A Modern Architect’s Sense of Place

Is There a God? A Debate

Is There a God? A Debate

Bertrand Russell famously quipped that he didn’t believe in God for the same reason that he didn’t believe in a teapot in orbit between the earth and Mars: it is a bizarre assertion for which no evidence can be provided. Is belief in God really like belief in Russell’s teapot? Kenneth L. Pearce argues that God is no teapot. God is a real answer to the deepest question of all: why is there something rather than nothing? Graham Oppy argues that we should believe that there are none but natural causal entities with none but natural causal properties—and hence should believe that there are no gods. Beginning from this basic disagreement the authors proceed to discuss and debate a wide range of philosophical questions including questions about explanation necessity rationality religious experience mathematical objects the foundations of ethics and the methodology of philosophy. Each author first presents his own side and then they interact through two rounds of objections and replies. Pedagogical features include standard form arguments section summaries bolded key terms and principles a glossary and annotated reading lists. In the volume foreword Helen De Cruz calls the debate both edifying and a joy and sums up what’s at stake: Here you have two carefully formulated positive proposals for worldviews that explain all that is: classical theism or naturalistic atheism. You can follow along with the authors and deliberate: which one do you find more plausible? Though written with beginning students in mind this debate will be of interest to philosophers at all levels and to anyone who values careful rational thought about the nature of reality and our place in it. | Is There a God?
