Leonor de Aquitania, la mujer más poderosa del momento, emprende un viaje a Castilla para preparar la boda de su nieta con Luis de Francia. Nada la detendrá en su empeño por ser la Señora de Europa. Leonor de Aquitania, reina de Inglaterra y Francia, viaja a Castilla acompañada de su amigo y confidente, el druida Blédhri, que quiere dejar por escrito los recuerdos de la azarosa vida de la reina. El viaje es largo y pesado, pero nada arredra a la gran reina, quien ha tenido que sortear inconvenientes y peligros de todas clases para cumplir con la misión que su destino y su férrea voluntad le tenían reservado: ser la Señora de Europa. Durante su viaje Leonor rememora su vida: su boda, las difíciles relaciones y divorcio con Luis VII de Francia; su matrimonio con Enrique II Plantagenet, el desarrollo de la Segunda y Tercera Cruzadas, las vidas de sus once hijos y las anécdotas ocurridas durante el camino. Ara Antón nos introduce en la fascinante Edad Media, una época dura, con continuas luchas y conflictos políticos, en una tierra de costumbres muy arraigadas, donde el honor y la búsqueda de la misión personal estaban por encima de la propia vida de Leonor, una mujer adelantada a su tiempo que logró destacar por su gran cultura, belleza y capacidad estratégica. Una novela histórica basada en una rigurosa investigación, plagada de detalles históricos fidedignos, con un estilo directo y claro, que nos sumerge en las intrigas del mundo palaciego medieval, la nobleza, la corte y las cruzadas, un mundo que reconoció en Leonor de Aquitania su musa de trovadores y símbolo de su máximo esplendor.

Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) has often been considered a particularly British writer in part as his official post as Poet Laureate inevitably committed him to a certain amount of patriotic writing. This volume focuses on his impact on the continent, presenting a major scholarly analysis of Tennyson's wider reception in different areas of Europe. It considers reader and critical responses and explores the effect of his poetry upon his contemporaries and later writers, as well as his influence upon illustrators, painters and musicians. The leading international contributors raise questions of translation and publication and of the choices made for this purpose along with the way in which his ideas and style influenced European writing and culture. Tennyson's reputation in Anglophone countries is now assured, following a decline in the years after his death. This volume enables us to chart the changes in Tennyson's European reputation during the later 19th, 20th and 21st centuries.

Los Sufis es la mejor introduccion jamas escrita sobre la escuela filosofica y mistica tradicionalmente asociada con el mundo islamico.Potente, conciso e intensamente estimulante, resume mas de mil anos de pensamiento oriental - el producto de algunas de las mentes mas ilustres de toda la historia humana - en una sola obra, presentando ideas atemporales en un estilo fresco y contemporaneo.Cuando el libro se publico originalmente en ingles, en 1964, lanzo a su autor, Idries Shah, a la escena internacional, atrayendo la atencion de pensadores y escritores como J. D. Salinger, la Premio Nobel Doris Lessing, Ted Hughes, Claudio Naranjo y Robert Graves.Tambien introdujo al mundo occidental nuevos conceptos que ahora son comunes, como la importancia psicologica de la atencion y el humor, el uso de historias tradicionales como instrumentos de ensenanza (lo que Shah denomino "e;cuentos ensenantes"e;), y la deuda historica de Occidente con el Medio Oriente en materia cientifica, literaria y filosofica.Como introduccion a las muchas docenas de libros Sufis que Shah escribio despues, es insuperable: este mismo libro abre una ventana a una comunidad de gente (Los Sufis mismos) cuyo sistema de pensamiento y accion se ha enfocado durante mucho tiempo en el avance de la humanidad toda, y cuyas ideas sobre los individuos y la sociedad, su proposito y direccion, deben ser comprendidas y ponderadas... hoy mas que nunca.

From the mid-13th to the mid-18th century the ability to dance was an important social skill for both men and women. Dance performances were an integral part of court ceremonies and festivals and, in the 17th and 18th centuries, of commercial theatrical productions. Whether at court or in the public theater danced spectacles were multimedia events that required close collaboration among artists, musicians, designers, engineers, and architects as well as choreographers. In order to fully understand these practices, it is necessary to move beyond a consideration of dance alone, and to examine it in its social context. This original collection brings together the work of 12 scholars from the disciplines of dance and music history. Their work presents a picture of dance in society from the late medieval period to the middle of the 18th century and demonstrates how dance practices during this period participated in the intellectual, artistic, and political cultures of their day.

By showing how music intersected with wider cultural affairs, such as philosophy and criticism, this book connects music and the modern in eighteenth-century Spain within the context of Enlightenment thought. Histories of modern Europe often present late eighteenth-century Spain as a backward place, haunted by the Inquisition and struggling to keep pace with modernity. While Spain under Charles III (1759-1788) pushed for economic and cultural modernization, many elites and the public at large resisted Enlightenment ideas. For conservatives, the modern would in time show its fragility, and Spain would withstand the collapse thanks to its firm grounding in the pillars of monarchy, religion, and traditional forms of knowledge. One source of this solid foundation was long-established musical knowledge based on the rules of counterpoint. In contrast, modernizers argued that Spain could be true to its essence, yet modern and cosmopolitan at the same time: they favoured cosmopolitan genres, such as Italian opera and artistic expression rather than counterpoint rules. At other times, ambivalence toward modernity produced creative uses of music, such as reinterpretations of pastoral and sentimental topics to accommodate reformist political trends. To both sides, music was crucial to the integrity of the Spanish nation. Whether and how Spain became modern would in many ways be defined and reinforced by the kinds of music that Spaniards composed and witnessed on stage. Through the study of press debates, opera and musical theatre productions, this book shows how music intersected with wider cultural affairs, such as philosophy and criticism, medicine and the human body, civilization, Bourbon policy and sentimentality. Music and Modernity in Enlightenment Spain for the first time connects music and the modern in eighteenth-century Spain within the context of Enlightenment thought.

The sixteenth century was an exciting period in the history of European theatre. In the Iberian Peninsula, Italy, France, Germany and England, writers and actors experimented with new dramatic techniques and found new publics. They prepared the way for the better-known dramatists of the next century but produced much work which is valuable in its own right, in Latin and in their own vernaculars. The popular theatre of the Middle Ages gave endless material for reinvention by playwrights, and the legacy of the ancient world became a spur to creativity, in tragedy and comedy. As soon as readers and audiences had taken in the new plays, they were changed again, taking new forms as the first experiments were themselves modified and reinvented. Writers constantly adapted the texts of plays to meet new requirements. These and other issues are explored by a group of international experts from a comparative perspective, giving particular emphasis to one of the great European comic dramatists, the Portuguese Gil Vicente. Tom Earle is King John II Professor of Portuguese at Oxford. Catarina Fouto is a Lecturer in Portuguese at King's College London.
