Download or read book In Order to Talk with the Dead written by Jorge Teillier and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2013-03-15 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In order to talk with the dead you have to know how to wait: they are fearful like the first steps of a child. But if we are patient one day they will answer us with a poplar leaf trapped in a broken mirror, with a flame that suddenly revives in the fireplace, with a dark return of birds before the glance of a girl who waits motionless on the threshold." —from "In Order to Talk with the Dead" Reared in the rainy forests of Chile's "La Frontera" region which had nurtured Pablo Neruda a generation earlier, Jorge Teillier has become one of Chile's leading contemporary poets, whose work is widely read in Latin America and Europe along with the poetry of his well-known contemporaries Nicanor Parra and Enrique Lihn. This English-Spanish bilingual anthology now introduces English-speaking readers to Teillier, with a representative selection of his best work from all phases of his career. Carolyne Wright has translated poems from the volumes Muertes y maravillas (1971), Para un pueblo fantasma (1978), and Cartas para reinas de otras primaveras (1985). Avoiding the bravura effects of some of his contemporaries, Teillier writes from a life lived directly and simply, returning time and again in his poetry to the timeless and mythic South of his boyhood, the "Land of Nevermore."

Download or read book El Puerto del Silencio written by Valentin Mendoza and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En esta segunda novela Valentín Mendoza pone en juego nuevos recursos de sus naturales dotes de narrador de largo aliento. Esta vez el autor nos conduce de la mano a través de una galería de tipos humanos y de eventos cargados de fuerte trascendencia social. Sin embargo, el dibujo de los personajes y de sus circunstancias es tan delicado y sutil que en ningún momento percibe el lector el asomo de la ideología en que se apoya la tesis que justifi ca la construcción del relato. Vale destacar el papel que juegan las mujeres en la confi guración de la historia y muy en particular, la fe en la nobleza del espíritu humano.

Download or read book Cumand written by Juan León Mera and published by Linkgua. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cumandá, también titulado Un drama entre salvajes, es una novela del ecuatoriano Juan León Mera. Juan León Mera, como auténtico hijo de su país y de su tierra, revela en toda su obra una clara predilección por los temas nativos. Cumandá es un anticipo de la novela indigenista que vendrá pocos años más tarde, pues refleja ya en este libro la protesta social indígena y su venganza contra su opresor. Tres hilos temáticos conforman esta novela de Juan León Mera: el amor, el indio y la selva. El subtítulo lo advierte y la narración se perfila entre pasiones, huidas, persecuciones y sacrificios. Cumandá es una novela fundadora de la narrativa ecuatoriana, y es también heredera ejemplar de la tradición romántica latinoamericana. A su manera, le da continuidad y la reorganiza. Así el amor imposible de una india y un blanco se engarza con la figura del buen salvaje. Juntos abren el universo sublime y misterioso de la selva. No falta la intriga, tampoco asombro. En Cumandá están los ecos de esas mujeres imaginadas en María de Jorge Isaacs, en Cecilia Valdés de Cirilo Villaverde o en Amalia de José Marmol. En los cuerpos de esos personajes literarios se pergeñaban proyectos biopolíticos y programas civilizatorios. También encontramos un diálogo con los textos de los exploradores, a la vez admirados y aterrados, frente a la naturaleza americana. Se dialoga además con las crónicas del Nuevo Mundo y las Tradiciones. Esas ingeniosas reconstrucciones del pasado que Ricardo Palmallevó a su cúspide. No son menos interesantes los modos en que Juan León Mera impugna las teorías sobre la inferioridad del indio. Aquí se cuestiona a Buffon, Montesquieu, Robertson, Domingo Faustino Sarmiento o José Ingenieros. A la vez pone en jaque todas aquellas concepciones de origen roussoniano, que enarbolaban al indio como un otro deseado. Se cuestiona la idea del idea del indio como estandarte que asegura el sueño colonial de América como un lugar ideal, virgen e impoluto. Queda por decidir si Cumandá se ubica a caballo entre una corriente indianista que insiste en una imagen exótica, decorativa y folclórica del indio, y otra corriente indigenista que lo pone en el centro del escenario, le da voz y se hace eco de su complejo universo cultural. En todo caso, esta novela reúne muchas de las preguntas que acompañan y aún acompañan el devenir de Ecuador y de América Latina.

Download or read book NO TAN ARDIENTE written by Hans Faverey and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-12-16 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algunos creen que es un monstruo, otros le rezan como a una santa o una diosa; Algunos opinan que conoce mejor que tú tus deseos, el anhelo que obsesiona el centro de tu corazón. A veces se acerca a alguien y, en apariencia, cuando se va, todo queda igual; algunos enloquecieron tras tratar con ella, otros pocos murieron y al menos uno sufrió un destino más extraño que la locura o la muerte; la gran mayoría de los que la trataron han desaparecido sin dejar rastro. Ella usa muchos nombres, uno diferente en cada oportunidad, y su aspecto - el color de su pelo, las vestiduras, los tonos de su maquillaje - varía de una ocasión a otra. Pero nada puede cambiar el brillo inquietante de sus ojos amarillos. Esos ojos son la única pista que tiene Simón para encontrarla. Porque cree firmemente que es su deber encontrarla, y tal vez, así, averiguar que ha sido de los que se esfumaron en su estela, y, si es necesario, pararla. Porque Simón la conoció cuando tenía nombre y sus ojos eran de un color más común.

Download or read book Plant Dreaming Deep written by May Sarton and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-07-22 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author’s tribute to the 18th-century New England farmhouse she called home: “[A] tender and often poignant book by a woman of many insights” (The New York Times Book Review). In Plant Dreaming Deep, Sarton shares an intensely personal account of transforming a house into a home. She begins with an introduction to the enchanting village of Nelson, where she first meets her house. Sarton finds she must “dream the house alive” inside herself before taking the major step of signing the deed. She paints the walls white in order to catch the light and searches for the precise shade of yellow for the kitchen floor. She discovers peace and beauty in solitude, whether she is toiling in the garden or writing at her desk. This is a loving, beautifully crafted memoir illuminated by themes of friendship, love, nature, and the struggles of the creative life. This ebook features an extended biography of May Sarton.

Download or read book Fusi n de Pasiones written by Alfredo Espinoza Quintana and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: F u s i ó n D e Pa s i o n e s El 09 de Diciembre de 1824, a la una de la tarde, la Batalla de Ayacucho estaba por concluir con el triunfo rotundo de los patriotas; y, once sobrevivientes españoles, presintiendo las consecuencias del desastre y los pasos de la muerte en sus cercanías, decidieron escabullirse, para no caer en manos del enemigo, ansioso de saldar las cuentas de trescientos años de horrorosa opresión. Así comienza el autor a relatar los acontecimientos históricos y las aventuras poco conocidas, rescatadas de los manuscritos hallados en los archivos conventuales por un investigador desvelado que anudó los cabos sueltos y recompuso la urdimbre, hasta restituir la trama en la que aparecerá plasmada, la verdadera historia de un pueblo. El conocimiento pleno de los lugares y de los acontecimientos históricos, le sirvieron de sólido soporte al autor, para ensamblar magistralmente los hechos verídicos, con aquellos sucesos que no habían sido recogidos por la historia, para explicar y reivindicar en forma coherente, el proceso cultural, político, religioso, administrativo y militar, que fue establecido y respetado con profundo fundamento humanista por la casta gobernante en el Imperio del Tahuantinsuyo.

Download or read book The Forbidden written by Benito Pérez Galdós and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benito Pérez Galdós, considered Spain’s most important novelist after Cervantes, wrote 77 novels, several works of theater and a number of other tomes during his lifetime (1843–1920). His works have been translated into all major languages of the world, and many of his most highly regarded novels, those of the contemporary period, have been translated into English two, three and even four times over. Of the few “contemporary novels” of Galdós that until now have not come to light in English, The Forbidden is certainly among the most noteworthy. The story line concerns a wealthy philanderer, José María Bueno de Guzmán, who attempts to buy the favors of his three beautiful married cousins. He is successful with the first, Eloísa, a grasping materialist who falls deeply in love with him. Then he rejects her in order to attempt to seduce the youngest, Camila. Meanwhile, the third, the pseudo-intellectual María Juana, jealous, seduces José María. But it is Camila, healthy, impetuous and wild, who resists his temptations and holds our attention. The novelist and critic Leopoldo Alas, Galdós’s contemporary, calls her “the most feminine, graceful, lively female character that any modern novelist has painted.” As a naturalistic study, in the manner of Balzac in particular, principal characters of Galdós’s other novels (El doctor Centeno, La de Bringas, La familia de León Roch) become fleetingly visible in The Forbidden. In addition, the entire Bueno de Guzmán family gives evidence of the naturalistic emphasis on heredity: they all display certain physical or mental disorders. Eloísa has a morbid fear of feathers, María Juana often feels that she has a tiny piece of cloth caught in her teeth, José María suffers bouts of depression, an uncle is a kleptomaniac, one of the relatives writes letters to himself, etc. At the same time, this novel shows the foibles of Spanish society where status is determined by one’s associates, by the wearing of finery, and by living on borrowed money. In their history of Spanish literature, Chandler and Schwartz call Galdós “the greatest novelist of the nineteenth century and the only one who deserves to be mentioned in the same breath with great novelists like Balzac, Dickens and Dostoievsky.” The Forbidden, written at the height of the author’s creative powers, is a major work and its publication for an English-speaking audience is long overdue.
