Elephants and Ivory in China and Spain
The Element provides a global history of ivory and elephants, acknowledging the individuality and dignity of the elephants that provided that ivory. Sections on China include the first translations of texts about the cultural importance of elephants and ivory in the Song Dynasty (960–1279) and an examination of an ivory stave (huban 笏板), crafted from an Asian elephant tusk (Elephas maximus), carried by officials in court and other formal rituals.…

The US Census projects that the Hispanic community in the United States will reach 128.8 million by 2060, and this growth requires a better understanding of Spanish as a heritage language (SHL). This essay examines three future areas of development within SHL instruction. First, more communication between communities of research and practice is necessary to improve classroom instruction. Second, novel SHL teaching materials ought to promote a "pe…
The Armadillo
After seeing it for the first time in the Americas, sixteenth-century Spain sparked an armadillo craze across Europe. People bought household objects that contained an armadillo image and its image was produced on maps, in manuscripts and printed books. Elites collected carapaces in curio cabinets and then as display items in the first museums. Armadillo descriptions subsequently inspired the proto field of animal taxonomy. This paper explains wh…
At Home and Astray
Luce Irigaray has suggested that a zoological place exists through which humans may understand the grace and gift of the nonhuman animal that in turn inspires pure altruism and a communion with the living. Irigaray argues that the animal does not belong to the human nor in the human space but in another space appropriate to its life and territory. When thinking about her idea with respect to the domestic dog, many might scoff at the notion that t…

When the shoe is not an object
This study conceives women's shoes in Lope de Vega's classic play El caballero de Olmedo [The Knight of Olmedo] to be what Bill Brown would call “things.” The first part of the article visualizes what an image of those shoes, or chinelas, might look like. It also contrasts Lope's treatment of chinelas in El caballero de Olmedo with another of his plays, Peribáñez y el Comendador de Ocaña [Peribáñez and the Commander from Ocaña], and with a short …
Humor and Politics through the Animal in Cervantes and Leopold
Part of Thomas Hobbes's argument for the need for a social contract, enforced by a sovereign power, depends on a mistaken notion about the human animal. Hobbes thought that the original “natural” state of humanity was a purely animal existence. People once lived like wolves among one another—homo lupus homini—until the accession of a sovereign who then imposed a “civilizing” order.1 Hobbes thus proffers a fundamental misconception about the natur…

Time for the "Corrido" and the "Romance
Critics typically cite the date-formula as a formulaic component of the Mexican corrido. The date formula is a literary device in which a date, most often a year, begins the ballad and anchors it in a single historical moment. Critics, however, have overlooked the existence of the date-formula in other Hispanic ballads such as the lesser-known cuando and the sixteenth-century Spanish romance. The first part of the article argues that critical rec…
