Abstract:
La colmena decrit la misere sociale des habitants d'un quartier de madrid en 1943. Les themes evoques sont d'ordre economique, culturel et politique. En s'appuyant sur la dialectique comme systeme argumentatif articulant le tissu textuel l'ecrivant fait egalement appel a d'autres techniques narratives pour transcrire la realite sociale. Notre etude s'attache surtout a l'analyse du fonctionnement des divers reseaux de sens qui s'investissent et s'entrechoquent dans le roman. Toutefois, la realite est souvent escomptee ou tout simplement gommee. Nous avons conclu que ce systeme d'ecriture est du a la censure qui influence considerablement les ecrivains de l'apres - guerre et les pousse, sans qu'ils s'en rendent compte, a utiliser des techniques narratives efficaces qui voilent le ton critique du roman. Publie a buenos aires en 1951, la colmena est un roman revolutionnaire, donc subversif puisqu'oppose a l'ecriture panegyrique du moment. C'est lui qui inaugure le roman socialiste du milieu du siecle en espagne
La colmena describes the social misery that reogned amongst the inhabitants of one quarter in madrid of 1943. The analysis is carried out from the point of view of economy, culture and politics. By using dialectic as the argumentative pattern which structures the text, the author alsotakes advantage of the other narrative technics to describes society. We mainly concern ourselves with the analisis of the various networks of meaning which spead and fostle together skipped out, if not simply rubbed out. We came to the conclusion this was due to the censorship which deeply influenced post - war writers and led them, unwittingly, to devise other narrative technics with a view to disgui sing the critical tone of their writings. Published in buenos aires in 1951, la colmena is revolutionary novel and as such was regarded as subsersive be- cause it sets against the panegyric writing of that time. It triggered off the socialist novelof the 1950's in spain

La presente disertación aborda los impactos de la Guerra Civil Española en la narrativa La Colmena, de Camilo José Cela. Novela española que ganó el premio Nobel de Literatura e inauguró el realismo de los años 50, una denuncia del conflicto bélico. En ese Periodo intelectuales de todo tipo eran liberales, simpatizantes de la izquierda, o de ella militantes, de modo que fueron incompatibles con el franquismo. El resultado de la propia guerra fue dramático para la cultura. De esta manera, propone trazar un paralelo entre el periodo que ahogó el país en una grave depresión, política, económica, social y cultural, así como también presenta la opinión de críticos literários acerca de la novela en cuestión. Finalmente presenta el análisis de algunos personajes que fueron divididos en cuatro grupos: traperos, triunfadores, sujetados y mercantes del cuerpo. El trabajo se apoya en las referencias teóricas de: Gonzalo Sobejano, Ángel Basanta y Raquel Asún.

Abstract:
Após a Guerra Civil Espanhola (1936-1939), conflito que durou quase três anos e culminou com a vitória das forças conservadoras fascistas e o estabelecimento da ditadura do general Francisco Franco, a Espanha atravessou um período de extrema miséria e desolação, período também conhecido como \"años de hambre\". Camilo José Cela retrata as mazelas sociais deste período em uma narrativa repleta de ironia e cinismo em La Colmena, romance que abriu portas para o realismo social na década de 50. Na obra de Cela, a perspectiva fragmentada da realidade, a reprodução dos valores conservadores e o conformismo disseminados no cotidiano constroem um quadro de inércia e desolação sociais, onde cada indivíduo é obrigado a aceitar a condição em que se encontra, tentando sobreviver por mais um dia em uma sociedade alienada e violenta.
After the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), which lasted nearly three years and culminated in the victory of the conservative fascist forces and the establishment of General Franco\'s dictatorial regime, Spain experienced times of extreme poverty and despair known as \"años de hambre\". In La Colmena, Camilo José Cela depicts the social maladies of that time through a narrative where irony and cynicism abound. The novel cleared the way for social realism in the 50\'s. In Cela\'s work the fragmented perspective of reality, the reproduction of conservative values and the resignation disseminated in everyday life paint a portrait of inertia and social despair, where each individual is obliged to accept the conditions in which they find themselves and tries to survive one more day in a violent and alienated society.

Full text
Abstract:
La nouvelle et les genres brefs en général occupent une proportion écrasante dans la production littéraire de Camilo José Cela dont on connaît mieux les récits de voyage et les romans. Pourtant, la poétique de la nouvelle dépasse les frontières de ce genre et informe l'oeuvre entière de cet auteur. Ce constat invite à examiner quelles relations se tissent par ce biais entre les différents genres, par delà les spécificités génériques. Pour ce faire, on se penche d'abord sur la notion de genre littéraire et on s'interroge sur la position adoptée par l'écrivain lui-même sur cette question. Les paratextes, lieux privilégiés de la réflexion métanarrative, ne cessent de récuser le cloisonnement de la littérature en catégories étanches et les positions normatives. Aussi bien dans le roman que dans le récit de voyage et le roman, C. J. Cela développe une poétique du fragment et de la discontinuité. Ses oeuvres se construisent sur la base d'unités narratives brèves disposées selon le principe de la parataxe. Cette organisation visible dans la présentation typographique des oeuvres est renforcée par l'intégration de marériaux divers qui constituent autant d'éléments de discontinuité dans les textes. Si C. J. Cela nomme "apuntes", c'est-à-dire "notes", ses nouvelles, cette appellation pourrait être aussi appliquée au roman qui évacue toute véritable intrigue et au récit de voyage qui le réduit au minimum. En l'absence d'une véritable intrigue qui puisse remplir la fonction de force centripète dans le récit, l'épisode et le tableau l'emportent sur la trame, le détail occupe le premier plan tandis que la stylisation réduit à quelques traits le monde représenté. Quelle que soit l'appartenance générique d'une oeuvre, son écriture est marquée du sceau du "dire bref" dont participe encore l'oralité du discours. Cet art de la briéveté imprime un style unique aux oeuvres de cet écrivain
Camillo José Cela's travel narratives and novels are very well known. However, the short story and other short literary works, that occupy a considerable proportion of his writing, shape his poetics. In his works, the poetics of the short story go beyond the boundaries of this genre and give meaning to the author's entire production. This statement invites one to examine which connections exist between the different genres beyond the generic specificities. To accomplish this, one focuses first on the notion of literary genre and one examines Cela's position with regard to this question. The paratext, privileged domain of the metanarrative discourse, constantly rejects normative postures and the separation of literature into establishes categories. In the travel narrative as well as in the novel, C. J. Cela exhibits a poetic of fragment and discontinuity. His works are constructed using brief narrative elements arranged according to the principe of the paratexis. This structure, evident in the typographic presentation of the works, is reinforced by the integration of diverse materials which constitue so many components of discontinuity in the text. If Cela calls his short stories "apuntes", that is, "notes", this label could also be applied to the novel, which renounces any real plot, and to the travel narrative which reduces the plot to the minimum. In the absence of a true plot which might serve as a centripetal force in the narrative, the episode and the scene trump the plot. Detail and anecdote ocupy the first place while stylization reduces the universe that he paints to a few touches. Whatever the generic connection of a work, C. J. Cela's writing style is characterized by the concise discourse in which the oral speech is a substantial component. This practice of brevity brands a style unique to this writer's literary creation

Abstract:
El presente trabajo tiene el objetivo de analizar los rasgos humorísticos y figuras retóricas en La Colmena de Camilo José Cela. La tesina se basa en las teorías de la superioridad, de la descarga, de la incongruencia y las teorías sociológicas y antropológicas según el estudio de José Antonio Llera. Nuestra investigación ha examinado particularmente el humor negro, grotesco y la ironía presente en la obra de Cela. Hemos podido concluir y afirmar que Cela usa el humor y la ironía a través de descripciones grotescas las cuales forman parte de su critica social y como mecanismo de defensa. Hemos establecido que el autor usa el humor para reflejar su propia elección subjetiva de la realidad de la posguerra. Finalmente hemos constatado que el humor es algo añadido lo cual se muestra a través de sus comentarios omniscientes.

Abstract:

Para estudiar cómo se presenta la relación entre Ficción e Historia o entre Ficción y Memoria del pasado reciente en la novela contemporánea de lengua castellana, se ha optado por Mazurca para dos muertos de Camilo José Cela, que toca la época de la Guerra Civil española. El objetivo es hacer un análisis sobre las voces narrativas; para esto se ha usado un método narratológico. Se ha partido de la premisa de que la novela en cuestión es una construcción de una polifonía de voces que abarca el dialogismo. Se mantiene la hipótesis de que la diversidad de voces y el dialogismo se hallan inmersos en los testimonios directos de los acontecimientos acaecidos durante la Guerra Civil, de los que, sin embargo, se obtiene una perspectiva limitada: cada una de las voces se distingue, pero existe una relación o conexión temática entre ellas. La historia se enfoca desde una visión y un punto de vista de un primer narrador desde donde se aborda el conjunto de la historia; este utiliza numerosos modalizadores para orientar a los lectores en su dirección de opinión. Así elabora el discurso a partir de la información recabada desde las voces narrativas que completan el punto de vista del primer narrador desde diferentes perspectivas. Por eso se sostiene, en las conclusiones, que el diálogo y la polifonía son un modo de organización estructural, pero que, también, sirven como herramientas con las que se enfoca la historia desde el ángulo subjetivo de un narrador. Se subraya, además, lo magistral logrado en la trancripción de una realidad oral y la representación verosímil de la historia.

Abstract:
The chapter takes as starting point a famous book by Almeida Garrett, Viagens na Minha Terra (1846), one of the first books to explore a nearby reality in the Iberian area, a mixed genre work, fundamental in the construction of the Portuguese national identity through the author’s journey to Portugal. It is an internalised landscape from which many historical or fantastic episodes arise related to themes that the author expresses: the violence of war, the joke of the gothic novel, anti-religious criticism about the parasitism of the friars. The purpose of this article is to reflect on several examples of proximity travel written by Iberian authors: José Pla, Viaje en autobús (1942), Camilo José Cela, Viaje a la Alcarria (1946) and José Saramago, Viagem a Portugal (1981). These travel books take advantage of the travelogue feature: to travel, but also to express opinions, analysis and criticisms with the eyes of the essayist, so that the result is much more than a simple guide, with the advantage that travellers are profound connoisseurs of the reality they visit.

Assuming that, in this particular type of human settlements, heritage buildings such as the cathedral, the town hall, and other similar constructions operate as tourist attractors, this research investigates to what extent the location of these buildings, together with the two main syntactic properties of the elements of the street network—integration and choice—can describe the spatial distribution of economic activities in touristic heritage cities, using the UNESCO Heritage site of Toledo, Spain, as case study. In order to investigate this question, each segment of the street network has been characterized with four main values: (1) economic activity, (2) spatial integration, (3) spatial choice, and (4) heritage intensity. The first value, economic activity, represents the presence or absence of economic activity in the buildings that are accessible through each corresponding street segment. The second value, spatial integration, accounts for the integration values that each segment has at two different scales—the neighborhood and the whole city. The third value, spatial choice, considers the choice values that each segment has, again, at these two scales. The fourth value, heritage intensity, reflects the proximity of listed building to each individual street segment. Street audits were used to record the economic activities taking place in the ground floors and upper floors of the buildings within the historic city. Space Syntax analysis was used to determine the different integration and choice values for each street segment; and GIS tools were used to establish their heritage intensity. Afterwards, statistical analysis was employed to investigate the relationships among these four variables, showing how the distribution of economic activity in the street network of the historic city of Toledo can be well explained by the other three variables—spatial integration, spatial choice and heritage intensity.References Ashworth, G.J., Tunbridge, J.E.
