Download or read book Hacerse cargo written by Manuel Cruz and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-11-15 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uno de los pilares sobre los que se sostiene la visión del mundo hegemónica en la actualidad es el de la importancia fundamental atribuida a los individuos, entendidos como seres libres y soberanos, y, en consecuencia, responsables. Sin embargo, no está claro que semejante defensa de la libre responsabilidad sea la actitud realmente más extendida en nuestra sociedad, en la que lo que parece generalizado en creciente medida es la sistemática búsqueda de argumentos exculpatorios que minimicen la aceptación de responsabilidad por parte de los individuos (el ambiente familiar, el contexto económico, la inestabilidad emocional...). Desde el punto de vista teórico, estaríamos ante una paradoja. De tanto exculpar al individuo a base de responsabilizar a las estructuras, hemos terminado por convertirle en el eslabón más débil de la cadena. La misma modernidad que en un principio pretendía hacer descansar el sentido del mundo sobre el ser humano, convirtiéndolo en la nueva clave para justificar lo real, al final ha terminado por considerarlo un elemento incapaz de sostener nada ni hacerse cargo de acción alguna a poco que ésta tenga consecuencias negativas.

Book Life Creative Mimesis of Emotion

Download or read book Life Creative Mimesis of Emotion written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are emotions, feelings, sentiments not the stuff of literature? That is where they project their 'inner logic' of aesthetic transmutation; there, beyond the instrument of language that they command. This collection explores how the lyrical virtualities of life-experience and the elegiac style in literature share a common core, lifting the human significance of life from abysmal vitality to esoteric heights, from abysmal grief to a serene reconciliation with destiny. The 'elegiac sequence' in the play of emotions, feelings, sentiments brings together life and literary creativity in its transformatory power. With papers by A. Giuculescu, John McGraw, R. Ellis, A. Carillo Canán, B. Watson, S. Bindeman, R.J. Wilson, L. Kimmel, B. Prochaska, T. Raczka, Chr. Eykman, J.S. Smith, G. Scheper, S. Feshbach, I. Vayl, H. Rudnick and others.

Download or read book Versos en Matices written by Maria Aduke Alabi and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Versos en Matices es una compilación de poemas, unidos por el concurso de su propia diversidad, los que debido a las diferentes tonalidades subscritas en la vida misma se plasman de forma que abarcan cada una de ellas, con un carácter propio, con estilo y con una cualidad peculiar y especial que se distingue por sus matices, los que transforman letras en sensaciones. Esta colección de poemas colorativos es una luz que se descompone en rayos cada uno con un matiz diferente en vías de reflejar en otros, ya sea por armonía o contraste la combinación perfecta de sensaciones, música, pasiones, recuerdos y sentimientos. Espero con cada verso producir una impresión en el sensorio individual del lector que sea desatada mediante la luz propia que se refleja como rayo rebosante de sensibilidades, dejar sentir la vibración emergente de sus ondas líricas y que estas envuelvan y seduzcan almas con sus cantares rítmicos o arrítmicos, que construyan en la imaginación con fiel apego los colores reflejados por su espectro. El conjunto cromático armónico de esta colección es detallada a continuación para el mejor entendimiento del contenido y la intensión que detallan cada una de sus matices: GRIS Es el símbolo cromático que representa los versos que se identifican con el infortunio, la melancolía, el dolor y el sufrimiento. También representa el desconsuelo. En este caso el poeta utiliza los versos grises dentro del poemario para dar cabida a estos sentires. ROSADO El color rosado en este poemario es símbolo del amor de pareja, el amor puro como sentimiento no como acto. También se utiliza para denotar cariño y respeto. El amor es normalmente representado por el color rojo pero el poeta prefirió separar ambas simbologías en dos tonalidades diferentes. ROJO El rojo por su tonalidad ardiente se destaca dentro de la escala cromática como violencia, pero no es representativo en este poemario. En esta colección este color representa la pasión arrolladora, representados mediante poemas eróticos y pasionales, aquellos en los que tiene lugar el contacto físico entre un hombre y una mujer, narrados de una forma que presentan lo dicho en un plano simbólico incorporando la realidad del acto en cuestión. AMARILLO Es un símbolo cromático que señala la muerte, pero en este poemario representa el cambio (muerte y nacimiento) la transformación, la mutación, la evolución. El amarillo es el elemento ideal para transportar lo malo de su vida hacia algo positivo y más deseado. PURPURA Generalmente el color purpura o violeta ha tenido su representación simbólica dentro de la religión y la espiritualidad con un valor litúrgico poderoso. Es un color frio y muy delicado y de signo idealista que tradicionalmente ha sido símbolo de espiritualidad. El violeta como símbolo cromático representa exactamente eso en esta obra: espiritualidad, sublimación, pasión por lo desconocido. Presenta una imagen netamente subjetiva y mística. VERDE El color verde no es utilizado nominalmente como representación de cosas verdes, más bien como color polifacético la simbología dada en este poemario la relaciona con la creación artística, la inspiración, la fertilidad mental, la naturaleza del pensamiento, la fecundidad de las ideas y simbólicamente representa la capacidad literaria y la creación inusual. AZUL Este color es un símbolo cromático utilizado en la obra como representación del idealismo patriótico, nacionalismo y amor al pueblo de origen. La luz que se desprende del azul, la vemos resplandecer clara e iluminada en identificación con los más altos ideales. NEGRO Este color tradicionalmente ha sido símbolo de oscuridad o maldad, pero esa representación simbólica no tiene cabida en este poemario. El negro aquí representa a una cultura, a una raza, un linaje, una proced

Book excerpt: Es la historia de un anciano que fue abandonado por su familia en un asilo para que muriera de soledad. Agobiado por las enfermedades y el abandono de sus hijos desea morir lo más pronto posible. Un día, se le presenta la muerte y lo atormenta, le avisa que pronto va a ir por él, y le muestra una ficha de marfil en donde aparece el día de su muerte. En una lucha poco usual con la muerte, y sin que ella se dé cuenta le roba la ficha. Con este acto el anciano esta privado de morir, pues ha adquirido el don de la eternidad. El saber que es eterno lo obligó a meditar profundamente en su actual forma de vida, pero sobre todo, en la forma que él debería de morir. Fue tanto el pesar que el anciano padeció al final de su vida, que parecía que el destino se había vuelto implacablemente hostil, y buscó a la muerte como última alternativa para poner fin a su sufrimiento. E ignorado por la muerte, y revolcándose de dolor se resignó a seguir viviendo. Entonces, él tuvo que aceptar los fenómenos sobrenaturales que acontecían a su alrededor como parte de su vida cotidiana. Y comenzó a ver la figura terrible de la muerte como algo cotidiano y familiar pues debido al don de la eternidad, él pronto se iba a convertir también en muerte, una raza especial de seres que no mueren.

Book The Challenge of Life

Download or read book The Challenge of Life written by Kunz and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the autumn of 1971 F. Hoffmann-La Roche & Co. Ltd in Basel celebrated their 75th anniversary. The company was one of the first in the chemical industry to concentrate from the beginning on pharmaceuticals. Step by step new activi ties were taken up, but all within the frontiers of biology. During the 75 years of Roche the research division has become by far the largest department in the company, with basic research assuming an increasingly important part in it. For this reason Roche cannot but feel a share of res pons i bility towards the many problems raised by biomedical progress. Hence, the idea of celebrating the anniversary along conventional lines could not be seriously entertained. The occasion was to show Roche at work. A special kind of work certainly, breaking away from the daily routine into the sphere offree communi cation with thinking people outside the purview of the company's usual tasks.

  • Author : John King
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 1986-12-04
  • ISBN : 0521268494
  • Pages : 246 pages

Download or read book Sur written by John King and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1986-12-04 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of Sur, Argentina's foremost literary and cultural journal of the twentieth century. Victoria Ocampo (its founder and lifelong editor) and Jorge Luis Borges (a regular and influential contributor) feature prominently in the story, while the contributions of other major writers (including Eduardo Mallea, William Faulkner, André Breton, Virginia Woolf, Alfonso Reyes, Octavio Paz, Waldo Frank, Aldous Huxley and Graham Greene) are discussed. Politically speaking, Sur represented a certain brand of liberalism, a resistance to populism and mass culture, and an attachment to elitist values which offended against the more dominant phases of Argentine thought, from Peronism to the varied forms of nationalism, socialism and Marxism. Dr King examines the journal's roots, its development and its demise, relating it to other journals circulating at the time, and highlighting vital issues debated in its pages, such as Argentine attitudes towards fascism during the Second World War.
