Özet:
This dissertation examines religious and secular stories, their intersections, and the possibilities of enchantment that these stories and their intersections might offer modern man in four works by Miguel de Unamuno (1864--1936): Amor y pedagogia (1902), Del sentimiento tragico de la vida en los hombres y en los pueblos (1913), Niebla (1914), and San Manuel Bueno, martir (1930). These works, by combining, twisting, and distorting religious and secular stories, underscore the literary quality and tropes of both kinds of narratives and question the supposed break between the modern and the pre-modern and the distinction between "enchanted" and "disenchanted." I argue that there are four interrelated narratives of enchantment within these works: the story of losing religion, the story of learning religion, the story of experience, and the story of uncertainty. The story of losing religion traces the changes to and decline of Christianity in Spain and Europe and offers a possibility of the continuance of the religious tradition through modifications and distortions of Christian myth and secular explanations of the world. In the story of learning I explore what Unamuno and his characters deem "religious" and how el hombre de carne y hueso of Del sentimiento tragico and Unamuno's fictional characters acquire beliefs in spirits and god through experiences that the body and the embodied mind have with their surroundings and others. The story of experience reveals how experiences that violate the physical properties of the body connect transcendent and immanent realms by breaking down the dichotomies of nature/society, primitive/modern, and religious/secular and advances a counternarrative to secular accounts of compartmentalized social life and privatized religion. The story of uncertainty, a story about stories and how they are related, by exposing the fictionality of any claim to truth, subverts both secular and religious narratives and offers that uncertainty might constitute a modern enchantment.
