Antunes/Character Development in 2 Novels
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page essay. Antonio Lobo Antunes, contemporary Portuguese author, writes in a style that is very reminiscent of the psychologically complex novels of Faulkner or Dos Passos. In both Act of the Damned and The Natural Order of Things, Antunes presents perceptually complicated narratives that offer a cacophony of voices through the medium of jumbled interior monologues that encompass, simultaneously, both action happening in the current time and a host of memories. The following examination of these novels focuses on the development of two characters from each narrative, detailing their psychological orientation and the role that they fulfill within the context of each novel. No additional sources cited.

Assault on Paradise by Tatiana Lobo
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages. This essay focuses
on the social system in Spanish America and how that social
system is reflected in the novel Assault on Paradise by Tatiana
Lobo. The protagonist, Pedro, has many conflicting thoughts and
actions throughout the novel, from his underground resistance
days in Seville, Spain, to his love affair with "The Mute" up to
his last actions taken in freeing the captured Indians. All of
this displays the fact that while his background was very
European he was led in directions which would have been
considered socially subversive by his peers. Bibliography lists

Aura by Carlos Fuentes

5 pages. Aura was first published in
1962 by Carlos Fuentes. It is a novel filled with dualities and
comparisons such as that of masculine and feminine, young and
old, the beautiful and the deteriorating, life and death and
darkness and light. It is this very combination of opposites
which makes the novel so compelling to read and it becomes a
novel of changing and at the same time, the things that remain
the same. Bibliography lists one source.

Benito Perez Galdos' "Dona Perfecta" � Religion And Spirituality
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. The obvious implication of religious and spiritual intolerance sets the overall theme for Perez Galdos' (2004) Dona Perfecta, a novel about Spain's historic tendency to castigate those who did not fall in line with faith unity. Pepe represents the antiestablishment 'villain' who is not only proud of his personal � if not entirely outsider � beliefs, but he does not hesitate to express them, much to the chagrin of community outrage. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Berceo/Virgin Mary as Mother/Religious Symbol
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that discusses this thirteenth century poetry. Gonzalo de Berceo, thirteenth century Spanish poet, focused on the subject of the Virgin Mary and her importance to Christian worship in his text Milagros de Nuestra Senora (Miracles of Our Lady). Berceo begins with an elaborate allegory that pictures him as a pilgrim finding a field that he describes in a manner that immediately equates it with Paradise and the Garden of Eden. In this new "Eden," it is Mary who is the new "Eve." This allegorical beginning is the principal theme of Berceo's work, as he describes Mary as the central symbol of the new age brought about by Christianity. Just as Eve caused the downfall of humanity, the Virgin is instrumental in its redemption. No additional sources cited.

Berceo/Virgin Mary as Mother/Religious Symbol
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that looks at Gonzalo de Berceo's thirteenth century masterpiece Milagros de Nuestra Senora (Miracles of Our Lady), which consists of a series of narratives that relate many of the miracles performed by the Virgin Mary. In this work, Mary is essentially the protagonist who battles against the forces of evil, Satan devils, in order to aid humanity in the goal of reaching salvation. In so doing, the Virgin is pictured as humanity's greatest and most powerful advocate in the war between the forces of Heaven and Hell. Human beings are the fallible souls in the middle, who would undoubtedly fail to achieve Paradise if not for the intercession of the Virgin. No additional sources cited.
