在十七世纪末，有一名叫做巴西亚的神父决定召集墨西哥城所有的妇女，将她们送到贝伦的女修道院，这样一来她们便永远也不会出去或者被男人们看到了。毫无意外，巴西亚神父只能集合众多妓女、女演员以及马戏团表演者。然而当他刚刚把人关进修道院时，她们的情人便试图将她们救出并杀死巴西亚。男人们包围了修道院，女人们逃走时告诉善良的神父，如果这就是天堂，那么她们更中意地狱。神父疯掉了，并试图把含有圣水的栓剂塞进自己的直肠来自杀。

阿拉贡的住民确实粗犷顽固，有时甚至粗鲁，但他们同时也是隐秘的梦想家。（阿拉贡也是同时代的电影界戈雅，路易斯·布努埃尔之故乡。）

她们（弗莱明戈舞者）永远不会宽衣解带，但起舞之时她们的头发必然会像美杜莎的头发一样分开，向前跃动。她们举起双臂，去朗达看她们跳舞的里尔克写到，“就像受惊的蛇”。

与此同时，凯尔特——伊比利亚灵魂的酵母被放入了罗马法律、语言以及哲学的熔炉中。

西班牙，一片圣人、画家、诗人与勇士的土地，已然无止境地重复了斯多葛主义的诸种真理——尤其是，让我马上把它讲出来——在塞万提斯的《堂吉诃德》中，主人翁必须通过回到故乡，回到自身，回到自己的死亡来遏止自己疯狂的冒险。

Along with the move ment of the Christian armies, villages became towns, and some towns became cities. One can distinguish, though. the city conceived for mil itary delcnse and the city that, even if originally a fortress town , soon developed on commercial impulses. Avila is the supreme example of a city built for military defense: impregnable , turreted ,moated . Not for nothing is it the highest city in Spain , a citadel made by man and nature to watch over the wide spaces of Castile, the land of the castle, the castellum, which means "high place. " Equally wide are the walls of Avila: ten feet thick, protected by eighty-eight round towers and nine fortified gates. Its town fathers were renowned warriors who went to fight and came back with cattle, treasure, and slaves.

　　Mexican novelist and statesman Fuentes believes that a common

cultural heritage can help the countries of Latin America transcend

disunity and fragmentation. In a splendidly illustrated survey,

companion to a TV series, he perceptively explores Spanish

America's love-hate relationship with Spain and its search for an

identity in its multicultural roots. His guiding metaphor is the

mirror--whether the glass found in Olmec tombs that guided the dead

through the underworld, or Cervantes's Knight of the Mirror, who

attempted to cure Don Quixote of madness. In the popular assemblies

of medieval Spain's townships, Fuentes finds a model for democratic

change in Latin American nations warped by oligarchy and U.S.

imperialism. He paints a composite portrait of a dynamic culture

through sophisticated meditations on Hernand Cortes's Machiavellian

character, Spain's self-mutilating expulsion of its Jews, the

pillage of Indian society, Goya and the Enlightenment, Bolivar's

quest for self-rule, modern painting, and the Hispanic community in

the U.S. (Publishers Weekly )Fuentes has used the occasion of the

quincentennial of Columbus's voyage to the New World to reflect on

the Latin American experience in this tie-in to the BBC series of

the same name to be aired on the Discovery Channel on April 19-23,

1992. The theme of his thoughtful essay is the accommodation of

cultures--Spain unique in the Old World in bringing together

Christians, Moors, and Jews and the New World intermingling the

blood and cultures of Spaniards, Indians, and blacks. It is the

unavoidable encounter with the Other that has shaped the New World

experience: "When we exclude, we betray ourselves," counsels

Fuentes. "When we include, we find ourselves." Spanish America's

predicament is that it inherited from Spain neither institutions

nor attitudes necessary for full partnership in the modern

capitalist world. Latin America remains derivative in culture and

economy. Every page in this lapidary essay offers profound insight

into the Spanish American psyche. Fuentes concludes, "We have the

right . . . to celebrate the great wealth, variety, and continuity

of our culture. Indeed, as the quincentennial comes and goes, many

throughout Latin America will ask themselves, 'Why have our artists

and writers been so imaginative and our politicians so

unimaginative?' " Highly recommended for a wide range of readers.
