Download or read book Influencers activistas y los derechos de las mujeres written by Carmen de Burgos Seguí and published by Modern Language Association. This book was released on 2024-09-16 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The newspaper columnist Carmen de Burgos Seguí caused a sensation in 1903 when she called for a public discussion on divorce, then illegal in Spain. The fierce debate that ensued among Spain's leading thinkers--politicians, academics, feminists, journalists, and others--is collected in El divorcio en España. This milestone volume ultimately contributed to Spain's legalizing divorce in the 1930s--a victory for women's rights that was subsequently rolled back by the Franco dictatorship and not regained for over fifty years. The opinions showcased here illuminate the uniqueness of feminism in early-twentieth-century Spain: because ideas about marriage and the role of women in society were anchored in Catholic teachings, feminist arguments focused on rights to education, divorce, and employment instead of on suffrage.

Download or read book The Cuban Filmography written by Alfonso J. García Osuna and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On January 24, 1897, an event took place that would change Cuban culture forever: the first moving pictures were shown in Havana. A couple of weeks later, on February 7, the first movie was filmed on the island. Since then, cinematography and Cuba have shared peculiar and innate connections, as their beginnings roughly coincide and Cubans are living in both the age of independence and revolution and the age of film. This work is a filmography of every Cuban film (including documentaries, shorts and cartoons) released from 1897, the first year films were shown and made in Cuba, through 2001. Each entry gives the original title of the film, the English translation of it, director, production company or companies, year of release, black and white or color, total running time, writing credits if the film is based on a story or novel, animation credits if the film is a cartoon, music credits if music has been written specifically for the film, cast credits, and a synopsis and short critical evaluation. The work also provides comments on the relationship between Cuban film and history, and the changes that have taken place over the years in themes, topics, methods, and other aspects of filmmaking in Cuba.

Book excerpt: En una frontera sin límites e incomprensible, Héctor Charles no puede concebir la idea de dónde está, quién es ni quién fue, pero sospecha que será juzgado por una fuerza superior divina y hasta por él mismo. Héctor desciende a regiones infernales al ser obligado a revivir sistemáticamente cada uno de sus actos y los que a toda costa intenta ocultar y olvidar. Por no poder discernir en su posición inanimada su real identidad, el hombre sufre las consecuencias derivadas de la intrínseca pasión que lo llevó a un final insospechado, no solamente para él, sino para todos aquellos que en vida lo rodearon. At a limitless and incomprehensible border, Hector Charles cannot comprehend where he is, who he is, or who he was; but he suspects that he will one day be judged by a divine higher power and even by himself. Hector is descending into hellish depths as he is forced to systematically relive each of his actions, actions he tries to hide at all costs and longs to forget. As he is unable to discern his real identity in this inanimate position, he suffers the consequences that result from the intrinsic passion that brought him to an end that neither he nor all who knew him in life could have foreseen.

Download or read book Voces de Juncos En El Pantano written by Maricela Col Mel Ndez and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voces de Juncos en el pantano es la historia contada por las mujeres de una familia, historias que no se dicen, que se han guardado en secreto como un intento de ayudar al tiempo y al olvido. Pero la memoria obliga a la confesión, la confesión obliga a contar historias y a cambiarle los nombres a nuestra verdad. La fi cción es otro matiz de la realidad. Esta novela captura mis sentidos, sorprende su prosa, el recorrido de los decorados de una vida de dolor y sufrimiento profundo, de grandes abandonos, incluso de tocar las fronteras delicadas de la locura. Camila, Lotis, Iris, son el ramillete de mujeres ligadas por la sangre de la familia Juncos, que aprenden a penetrar todos los obstáculos posibles para recrearnos esta historia de libertad y superación, de supervivencia. No es sólo enfrentar los muros, es penetrarlos, o en el mejor de los casos, volar sobre ellos. Tal aprendizaje lo da una vida llena de sueños, visiones que perseguir. Lotis amó y fue amada, y la vida en su ruta escabrosa, dictó que hay amores que deben esperar llegar al cielo. Una historia que sale de los rincones más pobres de la isla de Puerto Rico, viaja a la gran ciudad de Nueva York, donde en ambas el abuso, la traición, la vida subterránea sumergen al niño en inmensas violencias. Una historia que sólo puede entenderse con el toque de magia de los milagros. Voces de Juncos en el pantano debe ser leída por todo aquel que desee desenmascarar la realidad de la pobreza, niños y mujeres en su diaria lucha por ser libres para educarse, crecer, amar, y reir. Una historia demasiado humana.

Download or read book Oculto sendero written by Elena Fortún and published by Editorial Renacimiento. This book was released on 2016-10 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oculto sendero, novela inédita y testamento literario de Elena Fortún (1885-1952), por fin sale a la luz. Fortún escribe esta autobiografía novelada durante su exilio en Argentina y la firma con el seudónimo de Rosa María Castaños. La protagonista es María Luisa Arroyo, pintora y antes niña que quería vestirse de marinero, alter-ego de la autora. El camino de su vida es el sendero hacia el entendimiento de su homosexualidad, camino que avanza parejo al conocimiento y realización del potencial artístico e intelectual de la protagonista. Tras una infancia narrada al más puro estilo Fortún, María Luisa Arroyo irá dejando atrás, como la creadora de la inolvidable Celia, los dictados de la feminidad convencional para adentrarse en una modernidad inevitable y también desgarradora. Ambientada en la España anterior a 1936, Oculto sendero ofrece un retrato único y necesario de la intimidad y la lucha de una mujer excepcional.
