Book excerpt: Se trata de un diario en el que se narra momento a momento de la transformación de una mujer en apariencia superficial y vanidosa a un mundo que ella no conocía de dolor, de malos entendidos y enfermedades emocionales como la baja autoestima, y físicas como la obesidad, la codependencia, por una serie de malas elecciones y de pensamientos equivocados, autodestructivos que la llevaron a devaluarse y de someterse a pruebas de las que no estaba convencida, pero que por "amor", la denigraron al grado de permitir humillaciones, golpes, infidelidades, atropellos en su dignidad de mujer, por lo que su auto estima la condujo por odios y resentimientos hacia todos los que la rodeaban, incluyendo a ella misma. Por toda la novela no encontramos el nombre de la protagonista, por una sencilla razón, es la historia de varias mujeres que participaron en una encuesta y taller de lectura, en la que narraron sus similitudes algunas de ellas y de ellas se estructuró la novela. Al continuar con los talleres, se leyeron varios de estos capítulos a las mujeres que asistían y veían que era increíble el parecido que tenía con su propia vida, con la vida de su abuela, de su madre, de tu tía, de su vecina, es decir todos manifestaban conocer una mujer parecida a la protagonista, es por eso que si esto acomoda a algunas, pueden ponerle su nombre o el de alguna conocida y la novela quedará completa Pero ¿de qué similitudes estoy hablando? Se casaron muy jóvenes, con el guapo de la colonia quien siempre les hizo sentir que les hizo un favor, la mayoría embarazadas, bonitas, pero con una autoestima baja por una u otra razón y es ahí donde su cónyuge les encontró el punto débil y lo aprovecharon haciéndolas muy infelices, sin embargo, reconocen su responsabilidad porque lo permitieron. El final es una reflexión de lo que cualquier ser humano debería aplicar antes de entablar una relación enfermiza, pero es hasta que se toca fondo, como cualquier enfermo, para poder recuperarse, sanar y alcanzar lo que todos anhelamos, la felicidad. La protagonista tenía una felicidad falsa al inicio, y al final alcanzó una verdadera, pasando por situaciones adversas, pero aleccionadoras. Hay historias que pueden dar un giro a nuestras vidas, que nos pueden ayudar a ver lo que no hemos podido por estar enfrascados en círculos viciosos, en relaciones equivocadas, en un mundo en el que sólo nos limita nuestro propio pensamiento, pero sobre todo que nos ayuden a dejar atrás las causas de dolor y sufrimiento, esta historia rompe con la idea de que "para merecer, hay que sufrir", nos hace entender que no hay necesidad. Es una historia de dolor, pero a la vez de esperanza de un futuro mejor, siempre y cuando nuestro presente lo llenemos de respeto, responsabilidad y amor

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ambivalent Desires: Representations of Modernity and Private Life in Colombia (1890s-1950s) is a literary and cultural study of the reception of modernity in Colombia. Unlike previous studies of Latin American modernization, which have usually focused on the public aspect of the process, this book discusses the intersection between modernity and the private sphere. It analyzes canonical and non-canonical works that reflect the existing ambivalence toward the modernizing project being implemented in the country at the time, and it discusses how the texts in question reinterpret, adapt, and even reject the ideology of modernity. The focus of the study is how the understanding of the relationship between modernity and private life relates to the project of constructing a modern nation, and the discontinuities and contradictions that appear in the process. The question of what modernity is, its implications for everyday life, and its desirability or undesirability as a new cultural paradigm were central issues in Colombian texts from the end of the nineteenth century through the first half of the twentieth. At stake was the definition of the nation's identity and the project of breaking away from the cultural patterns of the colonial past. Considering that the apparently peaceful process of modernization in Colombia was interrupted in the 1950s by the eruption of political violence across the country, this study situates itself on the eve of a crisis and asks how representations of modernity in texts from the period evidence the social fragmentation that may have led to it. The book begins with an analysis of the theme of the private collection in the work of JosZ Asunci-n Silva, and how it is used to propose a specific notion of personal and cultural identity. It continues with an analysis of the modernizing ideology of the popular magazine El GrOfico during the period of economic prosperity of the 1920s known as the 'Dance of the Millions,' focusing on the publication's advertisements and the section devoted to women and the home. Subsequently, the canonical writings of TomOs Rueda Vargas are analyzed in the context of the relation between autobiographical writing and public life, emphasizing the contradiction between the author's public liberalism and his private conservatism, and highlighting his critique of modern life. The works of previously neglected women writers Manuela Mallarino Isaacs, Juana SOnchez Lafaurie, and Fabiola Aguirre are studied in the context of women's relationship to modernity and their conflict between traditional roles that relegated them to the private sphere, and their desire to accept modern standards. The book concludes with an analysis of the novels of Ignacio G-mez DOvila, which have received scant attention to this date, as it discusses his critique of the upper classes' flight into the private and what the author sees as their alienation from a society on the verge of a crisis.

Download or read book The Complete Poems of San Juan de la Cruz written by and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1578, during months of imprisonment for his reformist beliefs, San Juan de la Cruz composed a series of narrative poems inspired by the Biblical Song of Songs—and, the story goes, a popular love song overheard from his cramped cell—that take God as the beloved. Erotically charged, initially scandalous, his mystical poetry engages with the journey of the soul through the darkest trenches of suffering and despair toward an enlightened spiritual connection with God. For hundreds of years, these poems have resonated deeply with those who search for meaning in the dark, and have influenced generations of poets, artists, and philosophers. This bilingual edition of the Complete Poems—including “Dark Night” and both the Sanlúcar and Jaén manuscripts of “Spiritual Canticle”—presents an intimate and exceptionally collaborative new translation from María Baranda and Paul Hoover. Baranda, one of the most distinguished Mexican poets of her generation, lends her deft hand with expansive, meditative poetry. Hoover—the accomplished American poet, editor, and translator—offers his dexterity with form and the possibilities of language. The product is uniquely faithful to image and idea, and loyal to the ecstatic lyricism of this canonical text. A volume that hums with the soul’s longing to find solace, The Complete Poems of San Juan de la Cruz is a collection to be treasured.

Download or read book La Ara a Negra written by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez and published by LA CASE Books. This book was released on with total page 2702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La obra, compuesta de dos tomos, fue considerada una obra folletinesca (subgénero, que en Francia se conoció como feulleton-roman, en boga entre finales del siglo XIX y principios del siglo XX) probablemente para restarle importancia a la durísima crítica contra la Compañía de Jesús que esta obra contiene. Blasco Ibañez la escribió en su juventud, y más tarde la repudiaría, al no incluirla en sus Obras completas. Blasco Ibáñez dedicó gran parte de su tiempo al estudio de la Iglesia y su funcionamiento. Éste es el germen de la novela, en la cual se narra la historia de los Baselga, una familia noble de la España de comienzos del siglo XIX, íntimamente relacionada con los Jesuitas. En la novela, la Compañía de Jesús teje con infinita paciencia una tela de araña contra esta acaudalada familia con el fín de apropiarse de su fortuna. A lo largo de toda la novela se trata esta relación, analizando el comportamiento y funcionamiento de la Compañía de Jesús de una forma extensa.

Download or read book All Is Well written by Martha Triana and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2014-04-10 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All Is Well is a compendium of life precepts towards living the meaningful life we are supposed to live as children of the universe. The writings are a reminder of some Bible statements and Jesus teachings to the ones who want to listen and are ready for it. Several poems exemplify the praxis of remaining aware in the moment to overcome daily issues. As harmonious food for the soul its uplifting poetry and some agreeable musicality provide time for remembering that which everyone already unconsciously knows. It is a recognition of the ideas of such authors as Anthony De Mello, who taught how to control the ups and downs to avoid discouragement; Eckhart Tolles concept of being conscious of everything that happens for us in our life; Esther and Jerry Hicks suggestion of living in the vortex to attract the best; Joel Goldsmiths persistence in acknowledging Gods presence within in communion, stillness and meditation; A Course in Miracles, which espouses seeing God in every one of us giving what we were given when we were created; Louise Hays teachings of loving, approving and honoring ourselves. All Is Well is an excellent present to uplift someone's heart. As my father's signature, this book encompasses broadly his positive philosophy of life. It is my inspired gift of love to the world for those wanting to live life as if in heaven now.
