Download or read book La Verdad de Gabriel written by Antonio Lategana and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El obsesionado comportamiento ético de Miguel en su ejercicio profesional como abogado, solamente le permitió percibir a la justicia, como la dama ciega que equilibra su balanza con el peso exclusivo de la VERDAD, sin embargo, tan loable convencimiento, lo alejó completamente de la senda exitosa. La sensación y percepción de vida que nos pertenece todos, fue entonces interrumpida sorpresivamente en Miguel e incorporado al dulce y hermoso despertar que representa la promesa inequívoca de Vida Eterna. En esa insuperable, única e inmejorable dimensión, fue invitado a participar como fiscal acusador, para el juicio del milenio, al que seria sometida esa VERDAD, por ausentarse reiteradamente entre los hombres. El juicio requería presentar un caso que pudiese considerarse emblemático y representativo, un caso donde el uso de la mentira fuese reiterado y sin escrúpulos, para desplazar y anular a la VERDAD y consentir a la avaricia y al engaño colectivo. Sin duda alguna, la manipulación del mercado petrolero y sus derivados, cumplían con cada uno de esos requisitos.

Download or read book Troubled Memories written by Oswaldo Estrada and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzes literary and cultural representations of iconic Mexican women to explore how these reimaginings can undermine or perpetuate gender norms in contemporary Mexico. In Troubled Memories, Oswaldo Estrada traces the literary and cultural representations of several iconic Mexican women produced in the midst of neoliberalism, gender debates, and the widespread commodification of cultural memory. He examines recent fictionalizations of Malinche, Hernán Cortéss indigenous translator during the Conquest of Mexico; Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, the famous Baroque intellectual of New Spain; Leona Vicario, a supporter of the Mexican War of Independence; the soldaderas of the Mexican Revolution; and Frida Kahlo, the tormented painter of the twentieth century. Long associated with gendered archetypes and symbols, these women have achieved mythical status in Mexican culture and continue to play a complex role in Mexican literature. Focusing on contemporary novels, plays, and chronicles in connection to films, television series, and corridos of the Mexican Revolution, Estrada interrogates how and why authors repeatedly recreate the lives of these historical women from contemporary perspectives, often generating hybrid narratives that fuse history, memory, and fiction. In so doing, he reveals the innovative and sometimes troublesome ways in which authors can challenge or perpetuate gendered conventions of writing womens lives. A leading scholar on gender and literature, Oswaldo Estrada delivers a thorough, rigorous, and exciting account on the persistence of female icons in contemporary culture. Steeped in his deep knowledge of Mexicos cultural history, Estradas book is a key contribution to questions of gender, iconicity, and the interrelations between popular and literary culturea must read for scholars and students. Ignacio M. Sánchez Prado, author of Strategic Occidentalism: On Mexican Fiction, the Neoliberal Book Market, and the Question of World Literature By studying the way some of the most prominent female Mexican icons of all time have been reimagined in contemporary fiction and transformed into objects of consumerism, symbols of national identity, and memories of the past, this book fills a dire need in the Mexican studies field. The scholarship is exemplary, the style is impeccable, and reading the author is a pleasure. Patricia Saldarriaga, Middlebury College

Book excerpt: INTIHUATANA Del Quechua: Donde se Ata al Sol El tiempo no es más que espacio entre recuerdos de vida. Una vida de renacer diario que nos conlleva a aprender una sucesión de lecciones. Pasan los años como peldaños desde donde puedo ver mejor lo absurdo, lo verosimil, lo verdadero de lo vivido, en un tiempo que realmente no pasa. Pasamos nosotros que no encontramos el escondite para el elemento tiempo que nos devora hasta desaparecernos y sustituirnos entre sus fauces del plano de este mundo, más tenemos algo eterno dentro de nosotros que el tiempo no logra corroer porque no pertenece a este mundo y tiene una gran fuerza : el espíritu. Les dejo algunas memorias de unas porciones en del espacio de mi tiempo , del Intihuatana de mi vida. Con mucho cariño, espero que la disfruten. Salud!. Intihuatana es una misteriosa escultura irregular, localizada a un extremo del Templo de las Tres Ventanas, un obervatorio Inca de la Ciudad de Macchupicchu en Perú, considerada una de las maravillas del mundo. Cuenta la Leyenda Inca, que Intihuatana era utilizado para amarrar al Sol, en un esfuerzo por evitar que se fuera, o quizá sólo para alargar el día y estirar las horas de luz. El Sol era considerado el Padre y Dios de los Incas e Intihuatana era una roca labrada ubicada en casi todas las cudades incas. Con la llegada de los españoles al Perú todas las Intihuatanas fueron destruidas permaneciendo en el tiempo solo la que existe hoy en Macchupicchu.

The figures included have a professed gay identity, or have written on gay or lesbian themes in either a positive or negative way, or have authored works in which a gay sensibility can be identified.

Book excerpt: Guillermo Gómez-Peña has spent many years developing his unique style of performance-activism; his theatricalizations of postcolonial theory. In Ethno-Techno: Writings on Performance, Activism and Pedagogy, he pushes the boundaries still further, exploring what's left for artists to do in a post-9/11 repressive culture of what he calls 'the mainstream bizarre'.

Download or read book Lesbian Realities Lesbian Fictions in Contemporary Spain written by Nancy Vosburg and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-18 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lesbian Realities/Lesbian Fictions in Contemporary Spain, edited by Nancy Vosburg and Jacky Collins, focuses exclusively on manifestations of lesbian cultures and identities in contemporary Spain. Bringing together key essays from a range of international scholars, this anthology of critical essays examines the changing cultural, sociological and political landscape of Spain at the turn of the millennium. Divided into two sections, the first contributions focus on the realities of lesbian lives and looks at how Spanish lesbian identities are constructed through language and the media. The essays in the second section analyze contemporary lesbian identities as manifested in novels and short stories published since the late 1980s by authors such as Carme Riera, Lola van Guardia, Flavia Company and Mabel GalOn. The aim of this volume is to provide a significant and coherent contribution in English to the body of knowledge within an evolving subject area that has remained relatively under-researched until recently. Throughout the anthology, the visibility of the lesbian subject in Spain, either within the media, literature, the Parliament, and even within the gay book-publishing industry, emerges as a key concept for analyzing the status of lesbians in Spanish society. All essays in our volume are original, previously unpublished works written specifically for this volume by contributors who have been involved in researching or developing lesbian cultures in Spain. Lesbian Realities/Fictions in Contemporary Spain brings knowledge into the public domain that hitherto has remained hidden, and provides access to an audience interested in social and cultural change in Spain and yet who are unable to access material in Spanish. It is a particularly invaluable resource for teachers and students of Spanish cultural studies, global sexuality, and gender studies.
