The Unity of Plutarch's Work

Sinopsis del Libro

Libro The Unity of Plutarch's Work

This volume of collected essays explores the premise that Plutarch's work, notwithstanding its amazing thematic multifariousness, constantly pivots on certain ideological pillars which secure its unity and coherence. So, unlike other similar books which, more or less, concentrate on either the Lives or the Moralia or on some particular aspect(s) of Plutarch's oeuvre, the articles of the present volume observe Plutarch at work in both Lives and Moralia, thus bringing forward and illustrating the inner unity of his varied literary production. The subject-matter of the volume is uncommonly wide-ranging and the studies collected here inquire into many important issues of Plutarchean scholarship: the conditions under which Plutarch's writings were separated into two distinct corpora, his methods of work and the various authorial techniques employed, the interplay between Lives and Moralia, Plutarch and politics, Plutarch and philosophy, literary aspects of Plutarch's oeuvre, Plutarch on women, Plutarch in his epistemological and socio-historical context. In sum, this book brings Plutarchean scholarship to date by revisiting and discussing older and recent problematization concerning Plutarch, in an attempt to further illuminate his personality and work.

Literaturas indigentes y placeres bajos

Libro Literaturas indigentes y placeres bajos

Que vincula a Felisberto Hernandez, Virgilio Pinera y Juan Rodolfo Wilcock? Una multitud de semejanzas. Entre ellas, una comun propension a concebir escenas de placer que ocurren alli donde algun ser imaginario, en el texto que lo inventa, pierde la lucidez, la integridad, la fuerza, la turgencia, y se aboca a las delicias que ocasionan una laxitud que invade el cuerpo y una pausada extincion de la conciencia. Y tambien la puesta en acto, en esos textos, de ciertas estrategias de escritura: escrituras del desorden de la prosa o del verso, de la banalidad, del balbuceo, de la arritmia, del...

Libro Religión, política y ciencia en la obra de César Vallejo

C sar Vallejo is one of the finest poets of Latin America, and his poetry has managed to maintain a broad readership base right up until the modern day. Since Vallejo's posthumous poems were first published in 1939 in an edition supervised by his widow, Georgette de Vallejo, there remain to this day a number of unanswered questions about them. In what order did Vallejo write the poems? Would he have published the poems as they are? This book, by a careful analysis of the evidence available, proposes a new chronology for the posthumous poems, suggesting that the Peruvian poet's work went...

Kant y el ornitorrinco

Libro Kant y el ornitorrinco

Esta obra constituye el complemento definitivo a los estudios semióticos de Eco y es una exaltación de la filosofía como arte del pensamiento y como indagación de las eternas dudas del hombre. En este ensayo de Umberto Eco, filosofía y semiótica se aúnan para analizar los mecanismos de percepción del hombre. ¿Por qué reconocemos a un gato como tal? ¿Por qué hemos acordado denominarlo de este modo? A partir de estas preguntas, Eco retoma una serie de aspectos que no se trataron con profundidad suficiente en su Tratado de semiótica general. Para ello, recoge y estudia fábulas...
