The Unity of Plurality: Literary Effects in the 19th and 20th Centuries.
(Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 6, No. 6, 2016-06) Romero Sánchez-Palencia, Carmen
The artistic manifestations that have taken place in the modern era have been reflected in modernisms. These varied and international aesthetic movements are primarily characterised by not having a single viewpoint or a single way of interpreting or understanding reality. Thus different, yet equally valid manifestations coexist at this time, among which we will highlight Realism and Symbolism. In parallel, we mustn’t forget that the root of the word ‘modern’ has always encompassed the idea of the importance of the past, the embracing or denial of what came before, generating a feeling of superiority.
Thomas Stearns Eliot: Creación y crítica poética en El bosque sagrado.
(Universidad Francisco de Vitoria, 2013) Romero Sánchez-Palencia, Carmen
Actualmente, tal y como ocurrió en la modernidad, el mundo está necesitado de respuestas profundas que cuestionen al hombre completo y su modo de vida. Igual que en la época moderna, la manera de entender el mundo actual está cambiando, proceso en el que juegan un papel fundamental los medios de comunicación, la publicidad e incluso el arte, pudiendo disolverse en ocasiones la importancia del ser humano en dichos procesos burocráticos e informativos. Este es el fin principal de los trabajos de Thomas Stearns Eliot, que el ser humano no se deje llevar por la apatía existencial ni sea aplastado por los diversos elementos sociales, para ello investiga sobre la teoría y práctica poética, sobre el ser y el hacer de la poesía, sobre la creación y la crítica. Binomios inseparables y necesarios en el modelo creativo que propone su autor.
Literature and Truth in Enrique Vila-Matas.
(Theory and practice in language studies, 2018) Lozano Díaz, Vicente; Romero Sánchez-Palencia, Carmen
A postmodern approach helps the Spanish novelist Enrique Vila-Matas overcome the dichotomy between literature and reality and between desire and facts as the solution is to combine both elements. However, this does not mean he accepts all postmodernist characteristics, as accepting hermeneutic truth allows him to propose an aesthetic and even moral ideal that affirms the existence of a truth and certain values that go beyond absolute postmodern relativism.
Work, Unity, and Aesthetic Plenitude in La Peste by Albert Camus.
(Journal of Language and Literature, 2020) Romero Sánchez-Palencia, Carmen
Albert Camus, and his work, is the perfect example of achievement through personal growth, with a unitary conception of the individual and their relationship with the world and with others. In confronting the immediate, the author offers repose; in the face of the absurd, revolt, and in the face of a meaninglessness he proposes love. His task is advance, our advance, climbing a long ladder that we may also descend, although transformed, no longer as we were the first time. This project will analyse the book La Peste / The Plague, relating it and the ideas here expressed with the concept of work. Work being understood as something beyond mere occupation, or way of making a living, but the endeavours of the subject as an essential component of life. This becomes evident when one seeks to grow fully, in harmony with humanity as embodied by Camus’ characters in a situation of collective emergency, in a city in the grip of the plague. The result is a hymn of hope, of momentary triumph not without repeated stumbles, recalling again and again what we are and what we can become. Just as in our own lives, the nebulous is the constant companion of victory, which is never entirely complete.
Historical context, strata and unity of meaning: the hermeneutic mentality of Roman Ingarden.
(Analele Universităţii din Craiova. Istorie, 2021) Romero Sánchez-Palencia, Carmen; Lozano Díaz, Vicente
We live in a world in which visiting a museum, listening to music or reading a book has become commonplace. Long gone are the times when only a minority was able to read or attend great concerts. We have become accustomed to move in an environment where contact with artistic creations is easy and accessible. However, if we pause to reflect or question the true meaning of art and its intrinsic nature, many would be surprised to find themselves without a clear or concise answer. It may be that if we were truly aware of art’s role we would dedicate more time to contemplate and enjoy the artistic works available to us. The question of defining, delimiting or framing the notion of the “artistic” is not a trivial one. Engaging with art brings us into contact with the sublime, with that which we most need but fail to recognise or understand. However, rapid technical or technological access to works of art does not necessarily translate into a proportional interest in art. Many look forward to their retirement to begin enjoying the pleasures of art while others frequent artistic or cultural milieux merely in order to project an image of sophistication to others, rather than out of any real personal interest; still others simply believe that art is not for them because they are too busy in their daily lives and have no interest in investing time and money in something that requires quietude and repose. Some regard art in purely decorative terms: books, artwork or records are adornments to make walls and shelves more attractive and appealing. Here art is exclusively ornamental. Within this final group are those who take a real interest in these theoretical and practical questions, themselves creators or not, who look to art simply for that which is lacking or can profoundly nourish their own lives. But what is art? What does it consist of? The question of art is a philosophical and anthropological question. To understand art one must look beyond the merely apparent, the concrete, through a phenomenological approach where what matters is the relation we establish with what confronts us as a subject. To understand the truth of an artistic composition, if it is truly artistic, is to understand ourselves. In this vein, we will analyse the work of the Polish thinker Roman Ingarden and his specific notion of the literary work of art as the foundation of modern aesthetics. We will thus pursue an understanding of artistic creation by exploring its essence, its ontology and epistemology within literary theory.
La realidad tan solo se forma en la memoria: lectura de En busca del tiempo perdido de Marcel Proust.
(Bajo Palabra, 2022) Lozano Díaz, Vicente; Romero Sánchez-Palencia, Carmen
Para el escritor francés Marcel Proust, el arte en general, y más específicamente la literatura, tiene la función principal de ayudarnos a incorporar el pasado a nuestras vivencias presentes, permitiéndonos asociar lo vivido anteriormente a nuestras sensaciones y experiencias actuales, y facilitando con ello que alcancemos la realidad esencial, la realidad que va más allá de los simples hechos inmediatos y de la insoportable banalidad en la que las exigencias y las urgencias de lo cotidiano tienden a sumergirnos
