Tenemos en Aragón como castigo la piedra de yeso: comarcas extensas yacen sobre lechos de esa materia que priva a los habitantes de toda vegetación. Una de las fases en que se presenta la piedra citada es la llamada alabastro, que en otros tiempos fue elemento preciado para la construcción de obras artísticas, como los retablos mayores de El Pilar y La Seo. No alcanzo la razón por qué ha dejado de usarse; teniendo en casa tan abundante producto, se trae de Italia mármol blanco y la piedra de Alicante, que en algunos casos son preferibles, pero en la decoración y construcción de monumentos interiores puede el alabastro competir con ambos. Es de fácil pulimento, transparente, y se encuentra en varios tonos y colores, se labra seis veces antes que el mármol, se arranca con facilidad y puede aserrarse como la madera; el transporte es económico porque se halla en Escatrón, Sástago, Fuentes de Jiloca [...]. Yo pienso que en Zaragoza puede revivir y ser fuente de riqueza la industria de los alabastros [...] (Dionisio Lasuén, Heraldo de Aragón.

"Como el da del Bautismo, de pronto el cielo cambi de forma, o de profundidad, la noche se trunc en una gran masa de manto negro y temible. Desaparecieron las estrellas, la luna nunca haba salido, ahora estara tragada por la inmensa concavidad de la tormenta que se gesta. No hubo trueno, no hubo relmpago. Se desgarr la oscuridad en un torrente de agua, la lluvia demandada por la escasa fe de Flavinia. Jess que estaba a veinte pasos habra intervenido, despus de todo. Ciertamente no era necesario saberlo. El ruido del agua creci de a poco sobre las piedras colgantes, el agua fue al hoyo en rebanadas de gran fuerza, dilatando el polvo que ya no es. Flavinia se desgarr el manto que se haba aherido a su cuerpo de plomo, se abalanz para abrazar el lodo, y arrancar una raz muerta, una raz que ahora tendra vida, entre el agua, y la tierra que se ha vuelto arcilla; se frot el rostro, el cuello, hundi la cabellera antiguamente quemada, ahora la senta ya resucitar al roce de las rocas, dej que todos sus aos y su cuerpo desnudo se baaran como en Roma, sin perfume, pero con el agua que es ms pura de la que baja del Palatino en Primavera. El Quinto Evangelio establece un nexo entre el primer siglo de la cristiandad y el presente. Se lee en el Captulo de La Ejecucin: "Deodoro Contreras muri a las siete y cuarenta. La cmara qued invisible para Vespasiano y el abogado, y para todos en verdad, cuando se corri una pesada cortina. No les era permitido ver el descenso del cuerpo exnime desde el lecho de lino. Se puede afirmar, sin metforas, que se revivi una vez ms la escena de la muerte en la cruz. No obstante, nadie esper que Contreras pudiera acogerse esta vez a los beneficios de la resurreccin"

"This book presents three versions of the Godfather/Death motif in English translations as well as the original Spanish. A desperate man makes a pact with Death in order to alleviate pain or sorrow or poverty. Death then makes him a doctor and endows him with the ability to predict life or death, and thus he feathers his nest and his fortune turns. In the end, however, Death demands its pound of flesh, and the day of reckoning arrives." "The three authors of these Death-and-the-Doctor tales are three of nineteenth-century Spain's most well-known short-story writers. Fernan Caballero [Cecilia Bohl de Faber] (1796-1877) first published "Juan Holgado y la muerte [Juan Holgado and Death]" in 1850. It stands out for its humor, relating Fernan Caballero's hapless paterfamilias attempt to escape his numerous children in order to feast on a rabbit, only to have Death, in the shape of an old woman, snatch it from his hands." "Antonio de Trueba (1819-89) first published "Tragaldabas [Glutton]" in 1867. The main characteristic of Trueba's piece is its satire and scathing portrayal, as well as condemnation, of the medical profession." ""Death's Friend" is much more ambitious than Fernan Caballero's and Trueba's tales, and in length approaches a short novel. It is essentially a love story: Gil Gil and Elena, ill-starred lovers, are reunited through divine intervention as both Elena and Death petition God on Gil Gil's behalf." "Taken together, these three Death-and-the-Doctor tales fill a void in the Godfather/Death motif of Western European literature and highlight the universality of Spain's folk tradition."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

In the past decade, there has been a surge of Anglophone scholarship regarding Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, which has led to a reframing of the discourses around Spanish culture of this period. Despite this new interest-in which painting, in particular, has been singled out for treatment-a comprehensive study of sculpture collections and the status of sculpture in Spain has yet to be produced. Sculpture Collections in Early Modern Spain is the first book to assess the phenomenon of sculpture collecting and in doing so, it alters the previously held notion that Spanish society placed little value in this art form. Di Dio and Coppel reveal that, due to the problems and expense of their transport from Italy, sculptures were in fact status symbols in the culture. Thus they were an important component of the collections formed by the royal family, cultivated noble collectors, humanists, and artists who had pretensions of high status. This book is especially useful to specialists for its discussion of the typologies of collections and objects, and of the mechanics of state gifts, transport, and collection display in this period. An appendix presents extensive archival documentation, most of which has never before been published. The authors have uncovered hundreds of new documents about sculpture in Spain; and new documentary evidence allows them to propose several new identifications and attributions. Firmly grounded in extensive archival research, Sculpture Collections in Early Modern Spain redefines the socio-political and art historical importance of sculpture in early modern Spain. Most importantly, it entirely transforms our knowledge regarding the presence of sculpture in a wide range of Spanish collections of the period, which until now has been erroneously characterized as close to non-existent.
