This book was released on 2023-11-23 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La ópera en la actualidad es el tema que se aborda en este libro conformado por las conversaciones que sostuvo Gerardo Kleinburg con diez grandes protagonistas del quehacer operístico internacional: intérpretes, creadores y directores artísticos que piensan y reflexionan sobre este género para saber cuáles son en la actualidad sus mayores retos y hacia dónde se dirige. Así, Francisco Araiza, Barbara Hannigan y Sara María Sun, cantantes de primer nivel; Peter Sellars y Marcelo Lombardero, directores de escena fundamentales; Enrique Arturo Diemecke, director concertador y artístico; Markus Hinterhäuser y Christopher Koelsch, programadores de orden internacional, al igual que una creadora protagónica como Gabriela Ortiz y el escritor Jorge Volpi, hablan aquí acerca de los nuevos lenguajes musicales, canoros y dramáticos, de la relación entre los creadores e intérpretes de la ópera y su público, de la relevancia y los límites de la puesta en escena y su vínculo con las nuevas tecnologías, de la programación artística como discurso y como acto estético, político y social de interlocución, provocación y convivencia, del perfil actual y futuro del nuevo cantante, y del humanismo intrínseco a esta forma de arte dramático, un humanismo que necesitamos más que nunca y al que debemos aferrarnos para sobrevivir como individuos y como especie.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gracias Dios no es un libro de datos, esta es una verdadera versiA3n que yo estoy compartiendo, para que esta generaciA3n mejore y la generaciA3n futura crezca segura, feliz y productiva. Nosotros usualmente nos preguntamos si Dios existe o solo es un personaje ficticio. PermAtame decirles, yo soy una testigo viva que les confirma que Dios, JesAos y MarAa son reales. Yo los vi a ellos en la Iglesia Good Shepherd en Holbrook, Nueva York; y ademA!s, cuando estuve durmiendo, tuve mi propio viaje y los visitA(c) a ellos. Muchos otros autores de libros escriben frases estimulantes, pero ellos no explican la verdadera fuente del por quA(c) ocurren diferentes cambios en la vida y en el cuerpo humano. Todas las preguntas que no tienen respuestas correctas dejan a las personas en un estado de nerviosismo, ansiedad, miedo, y fA!cilmente caen en pA!nico. Cuando ellos entran en estado de pA!nico, sus vidas empiezan a desbaratarse y, desafortunadamente, muchos pierden la vida. Todo esto les sucede a ellos, es porque carecen de la correcta informaciA3n de cA3mo la mente y cuerpo funcionan. Recuerden, nosotros somos piezas de Dios, por eso nosotros estamos conectados directamente con A%0l, desde el lado derecho de nuestro cerebro. JesAos dijo: aEURoeSi tAo rezas con fe, tAo serA!s sanadoaEUR. JesAos nos enseA+-A3 a perdonar, amar y ayudarnos. Vivir en la Tierra es solo un aprendizaje de esto. Bueno, el Cielo existe, y a allA! solo irA!n los que aprendieron y practicaron lo que JesAos nos enseA+-A3. Yo conocA el infierno, y no me asustA(c). El limbo me sobresaltA3, y cuando estuve en el cielo, yo me sentA muy bien, y querAa quedarme ahA. Dentro del libro, estoy describiendo como lucen cada uno de estos lugares.Dios: aEURoeMis hijos han sido destruidos porque no tienen conocimientoaEUR. Esta es la razA3n por la cual el libro Gracias Dios fue escrito; entonces todos podrA!n alcanzar una prA3spera vida.Queridos lectores: yo los invito a que visiten mi website: www.diosnosbendigaahora.com ahA ustedes encontrarA!n un archivo de PDF gratis: aEURoeMi hijo triunfA3, su autismo quedA3 en el pasadoaEUR.

Download or read book Modern Spanish Grammar written by Christopher Pountain and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-06-01 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern Spanish Grammar: A Practical Guide is an innovative reference guide to Spanish, combining traditional and function-based grammar in a single volume.The Grammar is divided into two parts. The shorter section covers traditional grammatical categories such as word order, nouns, verbs and adjectives. The larger section is carefully organized around language functions and notions such as: giving and seeking information putting actions into context * expressing likes, dislikes and preferences comparing objects and actions.All grammar points and functions are richly illustrated and information is provided on register and relevant cultural background. Written by experienced teachers and academics, the Grammar has a strong emphasis on contemporary usage. Particular attention is paid to indexing and cross-referencing across the two sections. This is the ideal reference grammar for learners of Spanish at all levels, from elementary to advanced. It will prove invaluable to those with little experience of formal grammar, as no prior knowledge of grammatical terminology is assumed and a glossary of terms is provided. The book will also be useful to teachers seeking back-up to functional syllabuses, and to designers of Spanish courses.
Download or read book Spanish Graphic Narratives written by Collin McKinney and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish Graphic Narratives examines the most recent thematic and critical developments in Spanish sequential art, with essays focusing on comics published in Spain since 2007. Considering Spain’s rich literary history, contentious Civil War (1936–39), oppressive Francisco Franco regime (1939–75), and progressive contemporary politics, both the recent graphic novel production in Spain and the thematic focal points of the essays here are greatly varied. Topics of particular interest include studies on the subject of historical and personal memory; representations of gender, race, and identity; and texts dealing with Spanish customs, traditions, and the current political situation in Spain. These overarching topics share many points of contact one with another, and this interrelationship (as well as the many points of divergence) is illustrative of the uniqueness, diversity, and paradoxes of literary and cultural production in modern-day Spain, thus illuminating our understanding of Spanish national consciousness in the present day.

Download or read book La Dieta De Marin County written by Albert C Goldberg and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-12-27 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains everything a parent needs to know to design an optimal diet for the healthy child from infancy through the teenage years. It addresses the need for a practical nutrition book that contains evidence based information rather than "faith based" reasoning passed off as "science." It addresses the daily nutritional health issues of children in a specific, truthful, and friendly way. In addition to parents, this book will be of special interest to nursery schools, elementary and high school teachers, coaches, all health care providers, family physicians, pediatricians, and nurses who work with children, including pediatric and family nurse practitioners. At the turn of the previous century, malnutritionthe lack of certain nutrients, vitamins and mineralswas a problem second only to infection in this country. Today malnutrition is more likely to be a case of overconsumption of certain nutrients. Too much has replaced too little: too much fat, too much salt, too much sugar, and too much ultra-processed food. The author reveals the solution to the problem of overconsumption in this book, which is peppered throughout with helpful, nutritious recipes, as well as examples of the food labels of many popular products, with notes on what to look out for when reading the packages of your favorite foods. Although most of Dr. Goldberg's suggestions and anecdotes come from his years of nurturing thousands of children (and their parents), he has recruited the experience of many other experts in nutrition. For the past twenty five years the author has worked in countries such as Argentina, Chile, China, Colombia, Ecuador, Ethiopia, Honduras, India, Nepal, Philippines, Peru, Venezuela, and Vietnam, where poverty, ignorance, social disintegration and war have contributed to nutritional diseases, and he has brought back with him a keen understanding of the multi-cultural effects upon diet. In 2001 Doctor Goldberg was selected as one of fifty "Unsung Heroes of Compassion"from around the world and was acknowledged personally by His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama.
Download or read book The Age of Grief written by Jane Smiley and published by Mantle. This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this brilliant collection of five short stories and a novella, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jane Smiley presents six unforgettable portraits exploring the perils of domestic life. I am thirty-five years old, and it seems to me that I have reached the age of grief. Others arrive there sooner. Almost no one arrives much later . . . In the title novella, a man who has reached the 'age of grief' slowly realizes that his wife is in love with someone else. Unsure whether his marriage is best protected by confronting her or by feigning ignorance, he struggles to repress his anguish and to prevent his wife discovering that he is aware of her infidelity . . . Accompanying this novella are five short stories, including The Pleasure of Her Company, in which a lonely, single woman befriends the married couple next door, hoping to learn the secret to their happiness. And Long Distance, in which a man finds himself relieved of the obligation to continue an affair that is no longer compelling to him, only to be waylaid by the guilt he feels at his easy escape.
Download or read book Por Qu Creo en lo Que Creo written by Reynaldo Pareja and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si no hacemos preguntas atrevidas sobre lo que creemos no crecemos interiormente, no asumimos conscientemente lo que nos dijeron de pequeños que deberíamos creer. Creer como se cree de niño o de joven no es lo mismo que como se cree de adulto puesto que se han adquirido marcos de referencia que permiten analizar críticamente lo que nos enseñaron de la religión, de Dios, de la vida después de la muerte, del sentido ético y moral de la presente vida. De adulto se tiene la capacidad desarrollada para percibir las contradicciones entre lo que se ve y se constata en el diario vivir, y lo que dicen los "profesionales" que debe ser la realidad espiritual. No escribo como teólogo, aunque estudié teología. No escribo como filósofo, aunque estudié filosofía. No escribo como sociólogo aunque estudié sociología. No quiero hacer un tratado de teología, ni de filosofía, ni de sociología. Escribo para creyentes como yo, que están en la búsqueda de respuestas más satisfactorias a las preguntas que tienen de su fe cristiana. Escribo con el fin de compartir estas reflexiones que han zumbado por mi espíritu inquisidor y que, sólo en la soledad del encuentro personal con mi propia autenticidad en el pensar y sentir, he encontrado soluciones satisfactorias. Escribo para compartir con los que lean estas ideas duramente trabajadas, que me han servido para solucionar las contradicciones que he encontrado en la fe cristiana con la que crecí. Mi empeño al escribir estas notas es compartir con el lector aquello que me llevó a sentirme vivo en mi fe, vibrando de emoción al comprender y aceptar que hay diferentes perspectivas que pueden iluminarnos y llevarnos a entender que Dios se manifiesta de diferentes formas de acuerdo con la cultura, con los esquemas mentales, con la riqueza del tiempo, con la antigüedad y madurez de aquellos a quienes Él les habla, en cada etapa en que Él decide que tiene que hacerlo porque ese segmento de la humanidad lo necesita. Esta es pues, una invitación de coraje. Acompáñeme, estimado lector, en la revisión audaz de muchas creencias con las cuales nos criamos y absorbimos sin ningún cuestionamiento para descubrir respuestas diferentes y valederas.
