Book So That All Shall Know Para que todos lo sepan

Download or read book So That All Shall Know Para que todos lo sepan written by Oscar Iván Maldonado and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does an artist respond to the horrors of war and the genocide of his or her people? Can art play a role in the fight for justice? These are key questions for understanding the work of Guatemalan photographer Daniel Hernández-Salazar. Since the 1980s, Hernández-Salazar has created both documentary and aesthetic works that confront the state-sponsored terrorism and mass killings of Guatemala's long civil war (1962-1996). His photographic polyptych (4-panel image) "Clarification" became the icon for the Recovery of Historical Memory project of the Archbishopric of Guatemala, as well as a rallying symbol for Guatemalans. Broadening his crusade for justice in the twenty-first century, Hernández-Salazar is now also using the shouting angel of his polyptych (entitled "So That All Shall Know") to challenge the forgetting and/or erasure of painful history in many parts of the world, including Mexico, Japan, the United States, Canada, and Argentina. So That All Shall Know is a powerful, comprehensive overview of the work of Daniel Hernández-Salazar on recent Guatemalan history. Portfolios of images present his early photojournalistic work documenting the Guatemalan genocide; his Eros + Thanatos series that responds aesthetically to the destruction of war; and his Street Angel project, which uses his image "So That All Shall Know" to protest against injustice and historical forgetting around the world. Accompanying the images are bilingual English-Spanish essays by four scholars who discuss the development of Hernández-Salazar's art in the context of contemporary photography, the social and political conditions that inspire his work, and the broader questions that arise when artists engage in social struggle. Introduced by Nobel Peace Laureate Rigoberta Menchú Tum, So That All Shall Know is a moving testament to the horrors of genocide and the power of art to give voice to the silenced and presence to the disappeared.

She knew Sal when she was a child, and he was always so kind to her. How could he possibly have been a killer?

Book Breves e intensos  art  culos sobre relatos cortos de autores brit  nicos contempor  neos

Download or read book Breves e intensos art culos sobre relatos cortos de autores brit nicos contempor neos written by José Francisco Fernández Sánchez and published by Universidad Almería. This book was released on 2001 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Con frecuencia el relato corto ha sido un género que la crítica literaria no ha tenido suficientemente en cuenta. En el área de la Literatura Inglesa esta relativa falta de interés ha sido evidente a pesar de que en la segunda mitad del siglo XX excelentes escritores se dedicaron a esta forma narrativa tan singular. La presente colección de artículos quiere servir de introducción a los relatos cortos de algunos de los principales autores británicos contemporáneos que han destacado en este campo. En algunos casos se trata de autores consagrados cuyas novelas han eclipsado unos relatos que merecen ser considerados por separado. En otros casos tenemos a maestros de distintos subgéneros a los que no se les ha prestado la necesaria atención crítica, y por último están los autores jóvenes que bien complementan su trayectoria literaria con historias cortas de gran calidad o bien deciden dedicarse de lleno a esta forma narrativa. En los trabajos de este volumen se invita al lector a iniciarse en la lectura de los relatos de los autores seleccionados así como a profundizar en el estudio de los rasgos más destacados de su producción. La diversidad de enfoques que aquí se ofrece da testimonio de la enorme riqueza del relato corto contemporáneo en las letras inglesas.

Book Defeating Los Zetas

Download or read book Defeating Los Zetas written by Sergio Aguayo and published by El Colegio de Mexico AC. This book was released on 2021-02-12 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The narrative regarding criminal violence in Mexico tends to highlight the negative, while minimizing success stories: this book is different. It explains the reasons why the region of La Laguna succeeded in reducing the statistics of homicides and missing persons and how it started to attend to the families of victims. There were two key factors: 1) federal, state, and local government pushing aside party differences in order to coordinate efforts, and 2) dialogue and response to the petitions of social actors. The result is the best security model in Mexico.

Book The Theatre of Antonio Buero Vallejo

Download or read book The Theatre of Antonio Buero Vallejo written by Catherine O'Leary and published by Tamesis Books. This book was released on 2005 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph examines the complex relationship between Antonio Buero Vallejo [1916 - 2000] and the ideologies of Francoist and post-Franco Spain. This monograph examines the complex relationship between Antonio Buero Vallejo [1916 - 2000] and the ideologies of Francoist and post-Franco Spain. The central focus of the study is Buero's political theatre and his employment ofmyth and history to challenge the notion of an España eterna. It also considers Buero's creation of his own myths and his revision of history in order to rationalize and justify his own stance. In his determination towrite and stage committed drama in a repressive society, Buero's choice, with its inherent contradictions and ambiguities, was posibilismo. This book looks at this pragmatic employment of language and silence, both in his art and in his dealings with the censors and with other representatives of the hegemony and analyses how posibilismo both aided and limited him. The monograph also considers Buero's neglected post-Franco theatre, examining the reasons for its initial negative reception and its renewed importance in today's Spain. In these days of digging up the past, Buero's post-Franco insistence on rejecting the pacto de olvido is perhaps more relevantthan ever before.

Download or read book Exit Wounds written by Ieva Jusionyte and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-04-16 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turns the familiar story of trafficking across the US-Mexico border on its head, looking at firearms smuggled south from the United States to Mexico and their ricochet effects. American guns have entangled the lives of people on both sides of the US-Mexico border in a vicious circle of violence. After treating wounded migrants and refugees seeking safety in the United States, anthropologist Ieva Jusionyte boldly embarked on a journey in the opposite direction—following the guns from dealers in Arizona and Texas to crime scenes in Mexico. An expert work of narrative nonfiction, Exit Wounds provides a rare, intimate look into the world of firearms trafficking and urges us to understand the effects of lax US gun laws abroad. Jusionyte masterfully weaves together the gripping stories of people who live and work with guns north and south of the border: a Mexican businessman who smuggles guns for protection, a teenage girl turned trained assassin, two US federal agents trying to stop gun traffickers, and a journalist who risks his life to report on organized crime. Based on years of fieldwork, Exit Wounds expands current debates about guns in America, grappling with US complicity in violence on both sides of the border.
