{"title":"Four Dichotomies in Spanish: Adjective Position, Adjectival Clauses, Ser/Estar, and Preterite/Imperfect by Luis H. González, and: Understanding and Teaching Reflexive Sentences in Spanish by Luis H. González (review)","authors":"Carlos Benavides","doi":"10.1353/hpn.2023.a900046","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/hpn.2023.a900046","url":null,"abstract":"de la maquinación de homogenización de la dictadura. Así, Martens afirma que la literatura infantil, con su “función socializadora”, representa “las prohibiciones . . . [y] las prescripciones, en fin, el conjunto de símbolos que definen una sociedad o una cultura determinada” (17). La censura del franquismo, pues, era un acto performativo en todos los sentidos. La segunda parte, editada por Tena Fernández, incluye entrevistas y testimonios de autores, artistas y editores que fueron perjudicados por la censura franquista: Rosa Montero, Luis Matilla, Andrés Rábago (El Roto), Juan Margallo, Víctor Márquez Reviriego, Cristina Vizcaino y Ángel García Pintado. Las personas entrevistadas se enfocan en el teatro independiente durante la dictadura (ej., Matilla, Margallo), las viñetas (ej., El Roto), las novelas (ej., Montero, García Pintado) o las revistas (ej., Márquez Reviriego, Vizcaino). Todos conversan sobre el dolor causado por la censura y algunos mencionan la necesidad de autocensurarse (ej., Montero dijo, “En una dictadura hay un doble lenguaje. Por ejemplo, hablabas del absolutismo de Enrique VIII de Inglaterra y todo el mundo entendía que estabas hablando de Franco” [172]). La inclusión de estas entrevistas y de estos testimonios forma, en mi opinión, la columna vertebral del libro. Leer sobre las experiencias de estos autores y artistas ante la maquinaria de la censura crea una sensación de empatía profunda y nos hace recordar que el acto de censura, tan lleno de contradicciones y significado vacío, silenció el desarrollo cultural de todo un país por varias décadas. De hecho, Tena Fernández pone énfasis en el papel importante de contar las historias cuando escribe, “La necesidad de las entrevistas para el estudio de nuestra historia es vital porque los contextos son los que nos ayudan a comprender los hechos y si no conocemos esos matices es fácil armar discursos basados en estereotipos” (168). La censura cultural en el franquismo: Estudios y entrevistas pone de relieve las conversaciones necesarias sobre el silenciamiento de la dictadura en el siglo XX en España. El libro será de interés no solo para profesores que se dedican a los estudios culturales de la España contemporánea, sino también para estudiantes de español. Creo que sería fructífero que estos últimos lean fragmentos de este libro para entender mejor la maquinaria de censura durante el franquismo. También, como ya se ha mencionado, analizar algunas imágenes censuradas se podía implementar en clases para hablar de las estrategias de poder de las dictaduras.

Fashioning Spanish Cinema: Costume, Identity, and Stardom. U of Toronto P, 2021. Pp. 265. ISBN 978-1-4875-0911-8. Fashioning Spanish Cinema aims to offer answers to a variety of questions dealing with identity through the analysis of costumes in Spanish cinema across a diverse range of genres, periods, and artists. This monograph was published almost at the same time as Fashioning Spain: From Mantillas to Rosalía (2021), an edited volume about fashion that covers similar topics, and in which Jorge Pérez also contributes with a chapter about Balenciaga y Conchita Montenegro. These two, in fact, are at the center of Pérez's research in the first chapter of his book. Despite this coincidence, Fashioning Spanish Cinema is still the only monograph, at least up to the time of writing this review, focusing on Spanish film costume and fashion from an academic point of view and within the field of cultural studies. The volume contains a comprehensive introduction in which Jorge Pérez meticulously reveals the purpose of the book. Fashioning Spanish Cinema is essentially a study about identity—\"gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, class, nationhood, and so on\" (6)—and its expression through costume and fashion in Spanish cinema. While the volume analyzes diverse genres and topics, it keeps a strong sense of cohesiveness without losing the principal focus on identity. Fashioning Spanish Cinema also carries the reader on a temporal journey across Spanish cinema showing the developing of diverse identities along over 80 years of film history. Chapter 1 starts with the study of the haute couture French company Balenciaga's influence in the creation of film stars such as Conchita Montenegro, Sara Montiel, or Rocío Durcal. It also explores the Basque expatriate designer Cristóbal Balenciaga's way of benefiting from dressing Spanish actresses for three decades (1940s–60s) during Francisco Franco's dictatorship. Balenciaga's political position during that time is described as uncertain, but his work in Spanish films sure helped the designer stay in good terms with Franco's family to the point that both Franco's wife [End Page 327] and daughter did wear his clothes. The chapter serves as a historic introduction to the complex world of the costume industry in Spanish cinema. Although the connection with political history felt at times as if it were falling short of expressing the potential of the political power of costumes to create conflict and political turmoil, on the other hand, a deeper exploration would probably have been beyond this volume's scope of research. The second chapter continues the temporal exploration of Spanish cinema focusing on the films of Pedro Almodóvar and his relationship with the Chanel firm. This chapter is more accessible to those readers who may not have a background in the ins and outs of the film industry or are","PeriodicalId":51796,"journal":{"name":"Hispania-A Journal Devoted To the Teaching of Spanish and Portuguese","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136172763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Behind the articles that are published in each quarterly issue of Hispania there are numerous peer reviewers who have given generously of their time and expertise. Many times, articles that reach the acceptance stage have passed through multiple rounds of peer evaluation, and we are particularly thankful that our reviewers are ready to take a second (or third!) look at a revision along the way. Our aim in all cases is to provide authors of submissions with rigorous, detailed, and meaningful feedback. It is our pleasure to include these reviewer names in our March issue as a way of saying thanks. The anonymity of the review process is essential to the work we do, and so individual reviewers are never connected with a particular submission. If you are interested in becoming a reviewer, please create a reviewer profile in the Scholar One system and make sure to include your areas of expertise!! This issue’s contents are just one batch of contributions to our continuing commitment toward reaching members of the association at K-20 levels and including all research specializations pertaining to the broad categories of literature, linguistics, and pedagogy. The short-form articles section of the journal was formed to provide readers with access to shorter pieces (1,500–3,000 words) that promise to be of interest to K-12 members of the association in particular. Here we include Jerry L. Parker’s “Racial Inclusivity in the Spanish Curriculum: A Case for Afro-Hispanic Literature,” which outlines the impact of diversity equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) efforts in an intermediate Spanish II course. The research articles run the gamut. In “Re-Conceptualizing Affricate Variation in Caracas Spanish,” Manuel Díaz-Campos, Molly Cole and Matthew Pollock tie frication duration to social and linguistic factors in the Venezuelan capital. In “Teaching Special Questions: The Role of Semantics and Pragmatics in Colloquial Interrogative Structures in Spanish,” Javier Fernández-Sánchez and Alfredo García-Pardo assert the special interpretative functions of questions in which evidentiality and irony play a crucial role. Ana Cecilia Iraheta’s article, “Reclaiming the Power of Bilingualism: Spanish Heritage Learners Using Bilingual Skills in a Critical Service-Learning Project,” finds linguistic and affective gains are strengthened through community engagement. Rob A. Martinsen and Gregory L. Thompson discuss the current state of computer-mediated communication in their “Virtual Language Exchanges in Lower-level Language Classes: Promise and Practice.” Two of this issue’s articles blend the study of literature in both Portuguese- and Spanish-language texts.
