This book was released on 2022-02 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Places of Modernity in Early Mexican American Literature, 1848-1948, José F. Aranda Jr. describes the first one hundred years of Mexican American literature. He argues for the importance of interrogating the concept of modernity in light of what has emerged as a canon of earlier pre-1968 Mexican American literature. In order to understand modernity for diverse communities of Mexican Americans, he contends, one must see it as an apprehension, both symbolic and material, of one settler colonial world order giving way to another more powerful colonialist but imperial vision of North America. Letters, folklore, print culture, and literary production demonstrate how a new Anglo-American political imaginary revised and realigned centuries-old discourses on race, gender, class, religion, citizenship, power, and sovereignty. The "modern," Aranda argues, makes itself visible in cultural productions being foisted on a "conquered people," who were themselves beneficiaries of a notion of the modern that began in 1492. For Mexican Americans, modernity is less about any particular angst over global imperial designs or cultures of capitalism and more about becoming the subordinates of a nation-building project that ushers the United States into the twentieth century.

Download or read book 3 16 Spanish Pack of 25 written by Max Lucado and published by Good News Publishers. This book was released on 2008-01 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este texto es un desfile de esperanza de veintiocho palabras: Comienza con Dios, termina con vida, y nos insta a hacer lo mismo. Es tan breve que puede escribirse sobre una servilleta o memorizarse en un momento, pero al mismo tiempo es tan firme que ha aguantado dos mil aNos de ataques y cuestionamientos. Si no sabes nada acerca de la Biblia, comienza aquI. Si sabes todo de la Biblia, regresa acA. Todos necesitamos el recordatorio. El corazOn del problema humano es el corazOn del humano. Y el SeNor prescribe el tratamiento en Juan 3:16. El ama. El dio. Nosotros creemos. Nosotros vivimos. El ama. Dios te ama porque escoge hacerlo. "El SENOR se encariNO contigo y te eligiO, aunque no eras el pueblo mAs numeroso .... Lo hizo porque te ama" (Deuteronomio 7:7-8). El amor de Dios hacia ti depende de la bondad de El, no de la tuya. Y puesto que El es absolutamente bondadoso, tU eres amado absolutamente. No necesitas ganar su amor, porque ya lo tienes. Y puesto que no puedes ganarlo, tampoco puedes perderlo. El te ama con un amor eterno. Puede que des algUn paso fuera de su voluntad, pero nunca puedes separarte de su amor. ApUntalo! El te ama. De hecho, te ama tanto que ... El dio. El dio a su Hijo unigEnito. JesUs es el "unigEnito" de Dios. Es distinto a cualquier otra persona en la historia. Toda cualidad que atribuimos a Dios, podemos asignArsela a JesUs. JesUs posee una vida que dura eternamente, sabidurIa sin fin y energIa incansable. MAs que todo, JesUs es exento de pecado. Mientras viviO sobre la tierra, jamAs pecO. "El no cometiO ningUn pecado, ni hubo engaNo en su boca" (1 Pedro 2:22). Por otro lado, nosotros a diario hacemos cosas reprensibles. Exageramos la verdad. Herimos a la gente. Nos aprovechamos de los dEbiles y faltamos al respeto en nuestras familias. QuE debe hacer Dios? Su postura es muy evidente. "Busquen ... la santidad, sin la cual nadie verA al SeNor" (Hebreos 12:14). DOnde nos deja esto? Nos deja dependiendo de la promesa 3:16. "Dios ... dio a su Hijo unigEnito...." Aunque no pecO, JesUs llevO sobre sI el pecado nuestro. El SeNor cargO nuestro pecado sobre su Hijo y castigO ese pecado. Cuando JesUs muriO en la cruz, muriO por nosotros, en nuestro lugar, y resucitO de entre los muertos. Nuestra respuesta a este regalo tan grande es muy sencilla. Nosotros creemos. Confiamos que JesUs harA lo que nosotros no podemos hacer. No confiamos en nuestros propios esfuerzos para salvarnos. No podemos salvarnos a nosotros mismos. No depositamos nuestra confianza en otras personas para que nos salven. Creemos en El. A diario, y aun cada hora, damos pasos de confianza similares. Creemos que la silla nos sostendrA, y sentamos todo nuestro peso en ella. Creemos que el agua hidrata, y la bebemos. Confiamos en la obra que debe realizar el interruptor de la luz, y lo accionamos. Tenemos fe en la manija de la puerta, y le damos vuelta. Confiamos en poderes que no alcanzamos a ver para realizar cosas que nosotros no podemos lograr. JesUs nos invita a hacer lo mismo con El. Y cuando lo hacemos, cuando creemos-- Nosotros vivimos. El SeNor nos regala una vida completamente nueva. Nos da gozo en esta vida y la promesa de la vida eterna con El. Tenemos gozo porque tenemos al EspIritu viviendo dentro de nosotros. Poco a poco su EspIritu nos cambia para que seamos mAs semejantes a JesUs. Nada de culpabilidad en esta vida, nada de temor a la muerte, El nos da la vida, ahora! Y vida para la eternidad. En el cielo serAs lo mejor que puedes ser. Nada de enojo ni tristeza, lAgrimas ni aflicciones. Nunca cansado, egoIsta, ni derrotado. Mente despejada, mUsculos incansables, gozo sin estorbos. Y, mAs que todo, Dios! "QuE profundas son las riquezas de la sabidurIa y del conocimiento de Dios!" (Romanos 11:33). El cielo es un lugar perfecto poblado por gente perfecta viviendo con el SeNor perfecto. El ama. El dio. Nosotros creemos. Nosotros vivimos. Te gustarIa aceptar la promesa 3:16? Lo puedes hacer. Dile a Dios que lo aceptas. "Padre, creo que me amas. Diste a tu Hijo unigEnito para que yo pudiera vivir para siempre contigo. Separado de ti, muero. Contigo, vivo. Elijo la vida. Te elijo a ti." JesUs espera para que hagas tu oraciOn. Cree en El y ... no... perecerAs.... TendrAs la vida, la vida eterna, para siempre jamAs.

Download or read book Rainer Maria Rilke written by Dr. Adalberto García de Mendoza and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-06-21 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las obras de arte siempre han sido de una infinita soledad. El verso de Dante, la prosa de Dostoiewsky jams pueden ser comprendidas sino en la soledad del espritu, en la meditacin profunda que cada frase contiene y en la belleza que los propios idiomas proporcionan a quien sabe expresarse con elegancia y dignidad. La obra de arte slo es posible en la infinita soledad, porque es la manifestacin pura y difana del espritu humano, de ese y de esos otros que se llaman Juan Sebastin Bach, Victor hugo o Enrique Heine. De ese y de esos otros que fueron Miguel Angel y Bernini, Tiziano y Rembrandt, Lucca Della Robbia y Durero. Un mundo de seres solitarios y siempre atentos a lo ms profundo de su alma. ~Dr. Adalberto Garca de Mendoza
