Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde Cualquier Punto de Vista Desde Cualquier Punto de Vista es una mirada audaz a Santiago de Chile. Con una prosa rpida, un constante cambio de narrador y una irreverencia que no se le conoca en textos anteriores, Biggs aborda los problemas de la vida cotidiana en una historia que pudo ser la suya. El relato central, es el de un ejecutivo exitoso (Carlos Sims) que estando en la cima de su carrera, enfrenta un sorpresivo despido, con todo lo que ello implica: prdida del automvil de la empresa, del chofer y de mil prebendas que crea que seran para siempre. El tema no es menor, cuando va acompaado del relato de personajes como el junior de la oficina, (Pablo Carreo), quien junto a su amigo Sebastin (con una ambigedad sexual el primero y una abierta homosexualidad el segundo), organizan una Brigada de Asalto cuyo financiamiento en una primera etapa est a cargo de una fbrica de condones que ellos mismos han montado. Personajes como la madre de Sebastin (Mara Elena Lillo) antigua combatiente del VOP, de la secretaria (Melinda) que es capaz de cualquier cosa con tal de no fallarle a su jefe, o del sub gerente (Claudio Valds Fonk) quien con un clculo cnico y sin frontera aspira al cargo mximo, se armonizan en forma sinfnica con la suegra del protagonista, que es vctima del terrible mal de Alzheimer, y de su esposa, una mujer de clase quien, desde su soledad pasiva, ve transformarse su entorno sin tener recursos ni respuestas para enfrentar el derrumbe del mundo en que creci. La novela transcurre con una velocidad abismante con una serie de otros personajes tan reales como los que construye Biggs los que van relatando una historia lineal y transversal a la vez, desde su personal punto de vista. Desde Cualquier Punto de Vista (From Any Point of View) is an audacious look at Santiago de Chile. With fast prose, a constant change of narrator and with an irreverence that we didnt see in his previous books, Biggs faces the problems of everyday life in a story that could be your own. The central plot involves a very successful executive (Carlos Sims) who, at the peak of his career, is unexpectedly fired, hence, facing all the lossesthe company car, the chauffer, and thousands of other perks he thought would last forever. This theme is knit with the story of a sexually ambiguous junior executive (Pablo Carreo) and his homosexual friend Sebastin, who together decide to organize a Brigade of Assault, financed by a condom factory. The story is filled with rich characters like Sebastins mother (Mara Elena Lillo), a former V.O.P. Militant (an armed leftist group in Chile during the sixties); Melinda, the secretary who is ready to do anything for her boss; or the assistant manager, (Claudio Valds Fonk) whos trying to claw his way to the top of the Company with a lack of scruples and a cynical attitude. Woven into this rich tapestry is Carlos mother-in-law, a victim of Alzheimers; his wife, a woman with class who, from her passive loneliness, sees her world fall apart without having means or answers to face the destruction of the world she grew up in. Biggs has created a novel of breathless speed with a series of other characters that tell the story in a lineal and transversal way, from their own point of view.

Download or read book El elemento religioso en J J Rousseau written by Ferrando López, Andrés and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De Rousseau se ha hecho, e incluso se hace, una lectura preeminentemente política, priorizando El Contrato social sobre el resto de su obra. Esta visión, auspiciada por los partidarios de la Contrarrevolución, posteriormente se ha hecho canónica al asentarse los principios proclamados por los revolucionarios franceses. Con la perspectiva de esta visión sesgada, los escritos referentes a la religión se ven como añadidos discordantes, explicándose por causas subjetivas los que se presentan como disarmonías. Frente a esta interpretación, la que el autor propone atiende a aspectos culturales, antes que a aspectos subjetivos. Rousseau es fruto de un momento de transición. Frente al XVIII como el siglo de la razón, el pueblo es eminentemente religioso. La opción de Rousseau por el sentimiento religioso es una opción epistemológica pero a su vez es una opción social, una opción por el pueblo llano, frente a la razón auspiciada por la élite. Rousseau propone una revolución moral presidida por esquemas religiosos, aunque esta religión tiene que adaptarse a los nuevos tiempos: la metafísica debe ceder ante lo terrenal, o la moral primar frente a lo teológico. La religión civil, como religión patriótica, es expresión de su deísmo en el ámbito político.
