    La técnica compositiva en las cantinelas de Santa Eulalia en latín y francés : estudio comparativo
    (Universidad de Huelva, 1998) Castro, Eva
    This essay presents a new view of the two poems by Saint Eulalia found in the famous Saint Amand manuscript, today in the collections of the Valenciennes Library. Both poems are of unusual interest: the first, written in French, constitutes the first vernacular poem conserved; the second, composed in Latin, raises questions about literary genre. The comparative study to follow emphasizes a similarity in the two poems' technique and determines their authorship. Assuming that the poems date from the last third of the ninth century, the essay establishes, in addition, a relationship between Saint Eulalia's writing and the larger poetical and musical revolution then taking place in the region of the old French kingdom delimited by the Jumiéges, Réomé, and Saint Amand abbeys.

    Ovid, on the Birth of Love (Met. I 452 ff.)
    (Universidad de Huelva, 1998) Pérez Vega, Ana
    The charm of the Apollo and Daphne myth inspires admiration, particularly in its amatory facet, the aspect which has attracted most attention. But the myth also examines love and pain, alongside the elements of prophecy and virginity, as the true nature of poetry, symbolized by the laurel of Apollo. It also deals with love -and its opposite, the philosophical principles of separation and combination- as primum mobile in a civilizing rewriting of Hesiod and his primary, generative love. Here Ovid fuses the charm of elegy with the cosmogonic hymn, didactic wisdom and the epyllion.

    Mito, círculo, parodia : del modernismo anglosajón a la metaficción historiográfica de Pérez-Reverte
    (Universidad de Huelva, 1998) Collado Rodríguez, Francisco
    This essay establishes a cultural bridge between Modernism and Postmodernism by focusing on the use of the motif of the mythic circle in Anglo-American and Hispanic writing, the latter from Spain and Latin America. Beginning with analysis of Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury, the essay examines the symbology of the circle in Anglo-American Modernism, after which this symbology is viewed in light of anthropological and psycoanalytic theory. Discussion of Borges's use of the circle as a cultural link between the two periods leads to analysis (informed by the postmodern/poststructuralist concepts of "historiographic metafiction" and "narrativity") of the influ

    Italia-Spagna : l'immagine riflessa
    (Universidad de Huelva, 1998) Muñiz Muñiz, María de las Nieves

The ideological principles and stereotypes underlying the images of both cultures are particularly emphasized. Authors studied include Manzoni, Leopardi, Alarcón, and Galdós.

    Funciones del nombre en la configuración del personaje : un estudio comparativo en la literatura contemporánea de expresión española e inglesa (II)
    (Universidad de Huelva, 1998) Pérez Romero, Carmen
    As indicated in the first part of this essay appearing in Exemplaria 1 (1997), the names of characters have often been carefully selected by writers of fiction, since they consider names an essential element in delimiting personality, either by revealing it or by concealing it. Various critical views of the significance of proper names were then presented. While the first two functions of character names were addressed, three remaining roles of names in contemporary literature are analysed in the essay below: the presence of the Doppelgünger phenomenon; the fusion of real persons and fictional characters; and intertextuality.

    Broken Images : Eliot, Lorca, Neruda and the discontinuity of Modernism
    (Universidad de Huelva, 1998) Young, Howard T.
    T. S. Eliot's powerful trope in The Waste Land ("a heap of broken images"), which may derive in part from Tennyson's Idylls of the King, has overflowed into Lorca's Poeta en Nueva York and Neruda's Residencia en la tierra. What these three poets see while "walking around" is the detritus of urban life, broken and abandoned objects. With values fractured and icons turned into shards, Eliot's image relates as well to the discontinuity that underlines many examples of modernism, not only in the arts but also in science.
