Confined to a prison cell, thrice-murderer Pascual Duarte recounts his journey from a violent childhood to a life of pain and misfortune; juxtaposing tableaus of country poverty against scenes of bare brutality, Nobel laureate Camilo José Cela crafts a powerful meditation on cruelty and anomie. The Family of Pascual Duarte follows his upbringing in the poor Spanish province of Extremadura to his eventual imprisonment--and impending death sentence. Death permeates Duarte's world: his father's grotesque death to rabies, his young brother's drowning in an oil vat, and the loss of his children. But it is his wife's sudden death that condemns him to the darkest path when, losing all faith and driven by blind revenge, he kills her souteneur. Now an alien to the world around him, Pascual Duarte resigns himself to his bloodied fate--yet never gives up his search for peace. Camilo José Cela has been recognized as one of the pioneers of Spanish literary realism, and his masterwork The Family of Pascual Duarte proves the power of his prose. The novel, which birthed the transgressive and groundbreaking tremendismo movement, roils with emotion and unflinching inhumanity, painting the Spanish countryside in bloodshed, eroticism, and an unshakeable feeling of grief. Blending the political with the personal with the philosophic, the result is an unparalleled exploration of the fraught relationship between man and society, and the past's inescapable hold on the present.

Essay from the year 2002 in the subject Romance Studies - Spanish Studies, grade: 1,8 (A-), University College Cork (Spanish), course: HS 2057 Cinema & Identity in Spain & Latin America, language: English, abstract: The film version of the novel La Familia de Pascual Duarte by Camilo José Cela is written and directed by Ricardo Franco Rubio and was first screened in 1975. Without any background knowledge the film seems hard to follow, boring and depressing, but by watching it with background knowledge, just as Spanish history, Spanish cinema history, the novel itself or by watching the film for the second time one can realise, that it is a very demanding film full of symbols, of small important details which all have a second meaning, a hidden meaning. Turning a novel into a film is a very complex task, one cannot just take the book and, without changing anything, trying to make a film out of it. There are huge differences between reading a book and watching the same thing on screen: ”the analysis of a literary text reveals the manner in which linguistic and literary tools such as graphemes, syntax, tropes, shadings, and narrative strategies create a story and its characters. The cinematic rendering of that verbal fiction is accomplished by means of cinematic tools such as mise-en-scéne, photography and camera work, editing, sound, narrative strategies, and choice of actors.”1 So there must be some changes, because some details of books that are good to read, are not necessarily good to watch! It is difficult to say, when is a film version of a novel ”good” or ”bad”, because the filmmakers work with other instruments, in a ”good” film version we do not see exactly the same, that we imagined while reading the book. By comparing the novel to the film there are similarities and differences, in the film there are characters and scenes left out but also things added, which do not appear in the book. ”Novel and film share several basic structural elements. 1) Both focus on the text′s central character, Pascual Duarte, an agricultural labourer living with his family in an isolated, unnamed village in Extremadura, Spain. The time frame is principally the first three decades of the twentieth century. 2) Both texts present a case of individual violence that, while enacted within a circumscribed social sphere, resonates with meaning on a national level. 3) Both texts, hindered by the censorship of the Franco years, mask the significance of the social and historical context for criminal behaviour. 4) Both texts actively engage the receptor in the task of providing a motive for the extremely violent behaviour exhibited by the protagonist.”2

Gema Pérez-Sánchez argues that the process of political and cultural transition from dictatorship to democracy in Spain can be read allegorically as a shift from a dictatorship that followed a self-loathing "homosexual" model to a democracy that identified as a pluralized "queer" body. Focusing on the urban cultural phenomenon of la movida, she offers a sustained analysis of high queer culture, as represented by novels, along with an examination of low queer culture, as represented by comic books and films. Pérez-Sánchez shows that urban queer culture played a defining role in the cultural and political processes that helped to move Spain from a premodern, fascist military dictatorship to a late-capitalist, parliamentary democracy. The book highlights the contributions of women writers Ana María Moix and Cristina Peri Rossi, as well as comic book artists Ana Juan, Victoria Martos, Ana Miralles, and Asun Balzola. Its attention to women's cultural production functions as a counterpoint to its analysis of the works of such male writers as Juan Goytisolo and Eduardo Mendicutti, comic book artists Nazario, Rubén, and Luis Pérez Ortiz, and filmmaker Pedro Almodóvar.

Awarded the 1989 Nobel Prize for Literature, Camilo José Cela has long been recognized as one of the preeminent Spanish writers of the twentieth century. Journey to the Alcarria is the best known of his vagabundajes, Cela's term for his books of travels, sketchbooks of regions or provinces. The Alcarria is a territory in New Castile, northeast of Madrid, surrounding most of the Guadalajara province. The region is high, rocky, and dry, and is famous for its honey. Cela himself is "the traveler," an urban intellectual wandering from village to village, through farms and along country roads, in search of the Spanish character. Cela relishes his encounters with the simple, honest people of the Spanish countryside--the blushing maid in the tavern, the small-town shopkeeper with airs of grandeur lonely for companionship, the old peasant with his donkey who freely shares his bread and blanket with the stranger. These vignettes are narrated in a fresh, clear prose that is wonderfully evocative. As the New York Times wrote, Cela is "an outspoken observer of human life who built his reputation on portraying what he observed in a direct colloquial style."

"The United States has come to know Spain, its people, and its land through its literature and, more recently, through the international distribution of many of its films. This analysis aims to probe the creative Spanish soul in greater depth through the particular prism of the cinematic adaptation." "The analysis of the Spanish novels La familia de Pascual Duarte and Los santos inocentes and their cinematic adaptations Pascual Duarte (1975) and Los santos inocentes (1984) is based on the intersection of literary and cinematic theory." "The first chapter of this study summarizes various theories whose integration forms a basis for the analysis of the cinematic adaptation. Structuralism, semiotics, deconstruction, reader criticism, and Freudian/Lacanian psychology serve both film and literary criticism in their analysis of texts. The theories examined in this chapter are inflected in later chapters into the criticism and analysis of the novels and films in question." "The second chapter provides general background information on agrarian Spain - the historical, economic, and ideological context of both La familia de Pascual Duarte and Los santos inocentes. While in most cases the texts refer only obliquely to the reigning ideology that is responsible for the plight of the rural worker, the history of the province of Extremadura, where rural poverty is and was a social and economic phenomenon, is crucial to the understanding of all four texts whose stories are set in this province."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
