Book The Little Devil and the Rose   El diablito y la rosa

Download or read book The Little Devil and the Rose El diablito y la rosa written by Viola Canales and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her ode to ñThe Umbrella,î Viola Canales remembers a family story about her mother, who every Saturday as a child ñpopped open her prized childÍs bright umbrella / as did her little sister / and followed their motherÍs adult one / from their Paloma barrio home / to downtown Main Street McAllen / walking like ducks in a row / street after street,î until one Saturday ñthe littlest one disappeared / inside the wilderness of WoolworthÍs.î Warm-hearted recollections of family members are woven through this collection of 54 poems, in English and Spanish, which uses the images from loterÕa cards to pay homage to small-town, Mexican-American life along the Texas-Mexico border. Cultural traditions permeate these verses, from the curanderas who cure every affliction to the daily ritual of the afternoon merienda, or snack of sweetbreads and hot chocolate. The communityÍs Catholic tradition is ever-present; holy days, customs and saints are staples of daily life. San MartÕn de Porres, or ñEl Negrito,î was her grandmotherÍs favorite saint, ñfor although she was pale too / sheÍd lived through the vestiges of the Mexican war / the loss of land, culture, language, and control / and it was El Negrito to whom she turned for hopeî to bring enemies together. Fond childhood memories of climbing mesquite trees and eating raspas are juxtaposed with an awareness of the disdain with which Mexican Americans are regarded. Texas museums, just like its textbooks, feature cowboy boots worn by Texas Rangers, but have no ñclue or sign of the vaqueros, the original cowboys / or the Tejas, the native Indians there.î And some childhood memories arenÍt so happy. In ñThe Hand,î she writes: ñIn the morning I arrived at my first-grade class / knowing no English / at noon I got smacked by the teacher / for speaking Spanish outside, in the playground.î Inspired by the archetypes found in the Mexican bingo game called loterÕa, these poems reflect the history„of family, culture and war„rooted in the Southwest for hundreds of years.

Book Ancient Magic and the Supernatural in the Modern Visual and Performing Arts

Download or read book Ancient Magic and the Supernatural in the Modern Visual and Performing Arts written by Filippo Carlà-Uhink and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-04-23 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To what extent did mythological figures such as Circe and Medea influence the representation of the powerful 'oriental' enchantress in modern Western art? What role did the ancient gods and heroes play in the construction of the imaginary worlds of the modern fantasy genre? What is the role of undead creatures like zombies and vampires in mythological films? Looking across the millennia, from the distrust of ancient magic and oriental cults, which threatened the new-born Christian religion, to the revival and adaptation of ancient myths and religion in the arts centuries later, this book offers an original analysis of the reception of ancient magic and the supernatural, across a wide variety of different media – from comics to film, from painting to opera. Working in a variety of fields across the globe, the authors of these essays deconstruct certain scholarly traditions by proposing original interdisciplinary approaches and collaborations, showing to what extent the visual and performing arts of different periods interlink and shape cultural and social identities.

Book The Play of Power

    Book Details:
  • Author : Margaret Rich Greer
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2017-03-14
  • ISBN : 1400887119
  • Pages : 273 pages

Download or read book The Play of Power written by Margaret Rich Greer and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-14 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pedro Calderon de la Barca (1600-1681), one of the great dramatists of Spain's Golden Age, wrote a series of mythological spectacle plays for the Habsburg courts. Written when court spectacles were an instrument of monarchical absolutism, these later works by Calderon have often been dismissed by critics as servile flattery of the royalty or mere displays of dazzling showmanship. Margaret Rich Greer argues, however, that many of the playwright's court dramas not only explore human life and social organization, but also possess artistic unity and thematic complexity that make them landmarks in European dramatic history. Analyzing seven of these plays, she demonstrates Calderon's mastery in the integration of music, dance, elaborate scenery, and stage machinery to enhance rather than overpower his poetic text. Greer shows that by envisioning each drama in the physical setting of its performance and in the political context of its time, readers can appreciate a complex relationship of texts: intertwined with the flattering image of the splendor of royal power are a discourse relevant to common spectators and another one that is subtly critical of the policies of the king and the court. Originally published in 1991. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pesar de los temores que constantemente acechan su mente, el padre Alberto es un empedernido amante de las faldas que se traza la meta de tres mil mujeres por saciar con su inagotable vigor. Juana Morales proviene del inmenso mundo de nosotros los pobres y para alcanzar el éxito pronosticado por su abuela, la anciana que comía tierra, debe recorrer caminos tormentosos. El dulce encanto del infierno es el espejo de un mundillo complejo permeado por paramilitares, guerrilla, dirigentes nocivos, políticos corruptos y una Iglesia llamada a cambios estructurales so pena de desaparecer. Dos de las amantes del padre Alberto, gemelas incluso en sus gustos varoniles, son secuestradas por orden de la otra mujer en el triángulo amoroso del religioso. Allí comienza la historia... El infierno poco a poco se irá consolidando.
