Book excerpt: Juan Montalvo es uno de los más grandes pensadores de América Latina. Vivió en el siglo XIX, durante un período de inestabilidad política y restricciones de las libertades públicas. Pasó la vida defendiendo la libertad de prensa y combatiendo las tiranías y el clericalismo. Se enfrentó sin descanso contra los gobiernos autoritarios y sufrió por ello persecuciones que lo mantuvieron exilado de su patria, el Ecuador, por largas temporadas. Buena parte de la producción de Montalvo tiene como finalidad defender los valores del libre pensamiento y el derecho a la libertad de conciencia. En 1874, apareció un artículo en el periódico panameño Star and Herald, donde se ensalzaban los logros de Gabriel García Moreno como presidente y se apoyaba su candidatura a la tercera reelección. Montalvo se indignó y escribió la misiva que aquí publicamos al diario, bajo el titulo de La dictadura perpetua. En ella su prosa mordaz y directa ponía en relieve las perversiones del gobierno de García Moreno. Este texto, subtitulado, canto a la libertad y a la lucha contra la tiranía, se leyó clandestinamente en Ecuador y contribuyó a quitar la venda de los ojos de nuestros antepasados, no llegó a Ecuador hasta mayo de 1875. La dictadura perpetua es un retrato del poder ejercido en sus extremos. Construido, a través del análisis del carácter y la psicología de un dictador. El libro inspiró a un grupo de jóvenes liberales a ejecutar a Gabriel García Moreno, entonces presidente del Ecuador, el 6 de agosto de 1875. Muchas de las ideas que aparecen en La dictadura perpetua siguen teniendo total vigencia en el presente: «¿A dónde van a parar los principios democráticos, a dónde las instituciones liberales, a dónde los derechos de los pueblos, a dónde la justicia, a dónde el pundonor, a dónde la dignidad humana, a dónde la libertad, a dónde la esperanza?» «¡Desdichado, por otra parte, el pueblo donde la revolución viniese a ser imposible!»
Download or read book Montalvo s Capitulos Que Se Le Olvidaron a Certantes written by Kristen N. Helmsdoerfer and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an attempt to use Catholicism to unify and nationalize nineteenth-century Ecuador, political leaders such as Gabriel Garcia Moreno and Ignacio de Veintemilla instituted rigid centralization measures that heightened the power of the clergy and divided liberals and conservatives. Amid this backdrop one leading liberal thinker, Juan Montalvo, attacked Ecuadorian tyrannical leaders and clergy in his numerous political pamphlets and journals and wrote prolifically about the importance of individual freedoms and regaining basic human rights. In 1895 Montalvo published an imitation of the popular Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes titled Los capitulos que se le olvidaron a Cervantes (The Chapters Cervantes Forgot), transforming the madman into a biblically virtuous figure to immortalize his anti-clerical humor and social commentary on religious and governmental institutions. By offering an analysis in English of his satirical comedy and political and religious themes, I bring a previously untranslated yet important work to a wider readership while offering another interpretation for its full comedic potential. I draw biographical and literary comparisons between Cervantes and Montalvo and demonstrate the power of Don Quixote and its eponymous character to become a transnational vehicle for meaningful religious and political expression.

Download or read book Ensayos sobre cr tica literaria written by Antonio Alatorre and published by El Colegio de Mexico AC. This book was released on 2013-08-24 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antonio Alatorre reunió, en 1993, trece artículos en los que expone su manera de ver la literatura y de entender y ejercer la crítica literaria. No formula ninguna "teoría literaria" ni ninguna "metodología" (nada más ajeno a sus afanes), simplemente propone su manera de entender dos fenómenos indisolublemente trabados: la literatura y la lectura. Alatorre muestra que el que lee y, muy importante, siente lo que lee, es ya un crítico literario en potencia: con las herramientas adecuadas será capaz de pensar críticamente y de explicar las razones de la emoción experimentada. El crítico no es sino un lector más "formado", más "instruido", dotado de mayor capacidad de recepción, de mayor sagacidad literaria y de la capacidad y honradez para transmitir elocuente y claramente su experiencia de lector. Este "librito" se publicó originalmente en la colección Lecturas Mexicanas de Conaculta. Actualmente esta edición se encuentra agotada. De 1993 a 2010, Alatorre añadió algunas noticias más, pulió una que otra idea (pocas) y corrigió poquísimas cosillas de estilo. Se ofrece esta nueva edición (algo corregida y añadida) para conmemorar los 90 años del nacimiento de Antonio Alatorre.

Download or read book Nineteenth Century Nation Building and the Latin American Intellectual Tradition written by Janet Burke and published by Hackett Publishing. This book was released on 2007-02-28 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides readings from the works of eighteen Latin American thinkers of the nineteenth century who were engaged in articulating and examining the problems that Spanish and Portuguese America faced in the one hundred years after securing independence. The selections represent all major regions of Latin America. Although these regions differ significantly with regard to indigenous background, geography, climate, and available resources, their people confronted the common problems that surround the intractable challenges of statecraft and nation building: issues of race, international relations, economics, education, and self-understanding. Burke and Humphrey provide fresh, accessible translations of key works, a majority of which appear for the first time in English; a General Introduction that sets the works in historical and intellectual context; detailed headnotes for each selection; a Guide to Themes; and bibliographic references.
