Evelyn Waugh's Brideshead Revisited: Sites of Memory and Tradition
Published 2022-06-01“…In this article, it is my intention to analyse two theoretical notions related to space, namely Pierre Nora’s idea of the site of memory and Gaston Bachelard’s thoughts on space and the house, as applied to Evelyn Waugh’s Brideshead Revisited (1945). I base my analysis on the symbolic value of the English country house with regard to the interwar English aristocracy and upper classes as depicted in this novel; that is, as a site of memory. …”

...Análisis sintáctico-intensional de «Brideshead Revisited,» de Evelyn Waugh ...
Published 2022-09-01“…Mediante el análisis sintáctico intensional de la novela personal Brideshead Revisited, de Evelyn Waugh, en el que se atiende a la relación del narrador homodiegético con la distorsión temporal cronológica de la fábula presente en el discurso, se concluye que dichas alteraciones juegan a favor de la mejor recepción de la obra como memorias ficticias, y facilitan, en este caso, la adecuación de res a verba, lo que depara en una mejor accesibilidad para el lector, por su mayor verosimilitud, coherencia y significación, consiguiendo así la felicidad comunicativa. …”

La hora de los benditos. Religión, eclesiología y debates estéticos en los años peronistas
Published 2008-04-01“…The areas in which these changes occurred were varied: from the debates on the ideal relation between Church and State to the debates on the aesthetic the new generation of “catholic” writers -such as Graham Greene, Evelyn Waugh and Julian Green- offered. This paper intends to demonstrate that these changes were related to a new ecclesiology, which would need to include the catholic public opinion, and to a more humanist anthropology, as in the European personalism thought.…”
