The Handbook has provided scholars interested in Latin America with a bibliographical source of a quality unavailable to scholars in most other branches of area studies." —Latin American Research Review Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field.

The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Lawrence Boudon, of the Library of Congress Hispanic Division, has been the editor since 2000, and Katherine D. McCann has been assistant editor since 1999. The subject categories for Volume 60 are as follows: Art History (including ethnohistory) Literature (including translations from the Spanish and Portuguese) Music Philosophy: Latin American Thought

Download or read book Vino written by Karl J. Trybus and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¡Vino! explores the history and identity of Spanish wine production from the mid-nineteenth century to today. Nineteenth-century infestations of oidium fungus and phylloxera aphids devastated French and Italian vineyards but didn't extend to the Iberian Peninsula at first, giving Spanish vintners the opportunity to increase their international sales. Once French and Italian wineries rebounded, however, Spanish wine producers had to up their game. Spain could not produce only table wine; it needed a quality product to compete with the supposedly superior French wines. After the Spanish Civil War the totalitarian Franco regime turned its attention to Spain's devastated agricultural sector, but the country's wine industry did not rebound until well after World War II. In the postwar years, it rebranded itself to compete in a more integrated European and international marketplace with the creation of a new wine identity. As European integration continued, Spanish wine producers and the tourism industry worked together to promote the uniqueness of Spain and the quality of its wines. Karl J. Trybus explores the development of Spanish wine in the context of national and global events, tracing how the wine industry has fared and ultimately prospered despite civil war, regional concerns, foreign problems, and changing tastes.

Book James Joyce   Roma y Otras Historias

Download or read book James Joyce Roma y Otras Historias written by Giuseppe Cafiero and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "James Joyce, Roma e altre storie" descrive i mesi in cui scrittore irlandese James Joyce ("Ulisse", "Finnegans Wake", "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man"), ha vissuto a Roma, tra il 1906 e il 1907. E' un rendiconto degli incontri tra Joyce e il detective Herr David Mondine, delle lettere scritte dal Mr. Joyce al suo fratello Stanislaus e di un diario tenuto da Herr Mondine, che costruisce una coinvolgente narrazione di quei giorni. Joyce, frustrato dalla vita che conduceva a Trieste - allora parte dell'Impero d'Austria-Ungheria - fugge, con Miss Nora Barnacle, una moglie non sposata, e con il loro figlioletto Giorgio, a Roma per una nuova avventura pur detestando questa città così devota a un ritualismo volgare e a una smodata pompa liturgica. Mr. Joyce si aggirerà per la città di Roma come un spaesato visitatore catturato da luoghi che trova orribili e spettrali e che si accontenta di sostare piacevolmente in taverne e locande per mangiare e bere. Nel suo vagabondare Joyce tratteggia sovente affascinanti analogie tra la sua nativa Dublino e Roma, fra una città legata a vecchi e bizzarri miti e un'altra segnata da glorie mummificate tra maestose rovine e orribili edifici eretti in onore di un nuovo secolo. "Il libro è arricchito da ben 140 foto d'epoca che mostrano personaggi e luoghi frequentati da James Joyce e da Mr. Davide Mondine, il suo alter ego" +++ "James Joyce, Roma y otras Historias" describir los meses en que el autor irlandés James Joyce ("Ulises", "Finnegans Wake", "Retrato del Artista como un Hombre Joven") vivió en Roma, entre 1906 y 1907. Narraciones de los encuentros entre Mr. Joyce y el detective Herr David Mondine, y las cartas escritas por Mr. Joyce a su hermano Stanislaus, así como el diario escrito por el Sr. David Mondine constituyen una emocionante reconstrucción de esos días. Joyce se siente frustrado con su vida en Trieste -entonces parte de Austria-Hungría y hoy parte de Italia-así que, acompañado por su mujer Nora Barnacle y su pequeño hijo Giorgio, sale huyendo de esa ciudad puerto en el Adriático en busca de nuevas aventuras en Roma, esa capital tan Católica, a la que llega a aborrecer por su vulgar ritualismo e inmoderada pompa litúrgica. Mr. Joyce vaga como un nómada de corazón capturado por una ciudad que encuentra horrenda y fantasmal y pasa el tiempo en tabernas y hosterías, comiendo y bebiendo. El artista encuentra fascinantes similitudes entre su nativa Dublín y Roma, hija legítima de una ciudad de mitos viejos y glorias momificadas, establecida entre ruinas majestuosas y edificios ridículos erigidos en honor de un nuevo siglo. El libro se enriquece con unas 140 fotografías antiguas que muestran a personas y lugares frecuentados por James Joyce y el Sr. David Mondine, su alter ego.

This book was released on 2021-08-04 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si elegiste este libro es porque te llamó la atención o tienes la curiosidad de lo que él contiene. Y eso está bien, porque nos habla de una verdad de la cual nadie se atreve a hablar. Ya sea por miedo, inseguridad o ignorancia, las personas no se han interesado en ella o simplemente porque, en ocasiones, esa verdad la están ocultando. Desde el principio, el mundo ha sido envidioso, egoísta y solo unas cuantas personas se quieren beneficiar de los dones que se nos fueron entregados desde el inicio de nuestros tiempos. Los beneficios que hablamos son: bendiciones, protección y sabiduría, solo por mencionar algunos. Los cuales son una herramienta fundamental para encontrar nuestro propósito en esta vida. Pero, ¿por qué no podemos ser lo que Dios ha escrito en nuestro interior? Porque tenemos miedo a saber la verdad, la cual se encuentra escrita en este humilde libro. Leer este libro cambiará tu vida, ya no será la misma; prosperarás y tus sueños se realizarán. Que la gloria de Dios venga a ti. Amén.

Download or read book Republics of Knowledge written by Nicola Miller and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2025-02-18 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Republics of Knowledge tells the story of how the circulation of knowledge shaped the formation of nation-states in Latin America, and particularly in Argentina, Peru and Chile, during the century after Iberian rule was defeated in the 1820s. Most immediately, the author has sought to provide a cross-disciplinary approach to the history of knowledge, combining the methods of global intellectual history with a new way of thinking about nations as experienced and enacted as well as how they are imagined, and in so doing offer a new interpretation of the history of independent Latin America to illustrate its wider significance in the making of the modern world. By bringing these lines of inquiry together within a transnational framework, Nicola Miller shows how evidence from the pioneering nations of Latin America can invite historians to rethink many of their general theories about how knowledge travels and how a sense of nationhood is created. The book is designed to stimulate debate about the significance of knowledge not only in Latin America but in all modern societies. As Miller explains, Latin America is usually regarded as an exception to general theories, notably of colonialism, nationalism and liberalism; and yet it was in that part of the world, not in Europe, that the Age of Revolution brought the founding of a second wave of modern republics, and it was in Latin America that pioneering attempts were made to apply liberal principles in societies with inherited caste divisions and corporate institutions. It was there that some of the richest debates about the vexed relationship between collective identities and individualism took place"--
