Download or read book Historieta Doble written by Joanne Rappaport and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2024-10-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1970s, new methods of social science research began to flower in Latin America, connecting academic researchers to grassroots social movements. One of these was participatory action research, a method now used by community organizers, educational activists, and social scientists around the world. Historieta Doble traces the roots of participatory action research to the Caribbean coast of Colombia, and to the work of visionary sociologist Orlando Fals Borda with the Colombian Peasant Movement. Beautifully illustrated, this graphic novel shows how Fals Borda combined research and theory with political participation and activism, using comics to capture rural historical memory and allow peasants to see themselves as historical actors. This graphic history presents a fascinating journey through time, weaving Fals Borda’s original research with Joanne Rappaport’s contemporary reconstruction of his compelling story. The book features the artistic work of Ulianov Chalarka, whose comic panels brought Fals Borda’s research to life in the 1970s. Historieta Doble is a visual and narrative feast that transcends eras, connecting the past and present within the vibrant world of Latin American comics.

Download or read book The Comic Book Western written by Christopher Conway and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2022-06 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the greatest untold stories about the globalization of the Western is the key role of comics. Few American cultural exports have been as successful globally as the Western, a phenomenon commonly attributed to the widespread circulation of fiction, film, and television. The Comic Book Western centers comics in the Western’s international success. Even as readers consumed translations of American comic book Westerns, they fell in love with local ones that became national or international sensations. These essays reveal the unexpected cross-pollinations that allowed the Western to emerge from and speak to a wide range of historical and cultural contexts, including Spanish and Italian fascism, Polish historical memory, the ideology of shōjo manga from Japan, British post-apocalypticism and the gothic, race and identity in Canada, Mexican gender politics, French critiques of manifest destiny, and gaucho nationalism in Argentina. The vibrant themes uncovered in The Comic Book Western teach us that international comic book Westerns are not hollow imitations but complex and aesthetically powerful statements about identity, culture, and politics.

Aprenda acerca de: • El empresario estadounidense honrado por Hitler para promover antisemitismo en América. • El campo nazi en Nueva York aniquilado por Dios con una tormenta monstruosa después de una reunión nazi de 40.000 personas. • Los comerciantes judíos que ayudaron a financiar y suministran la revolución americana por su propia cuenta. • El amigo judío a quien George Washington pidió ayuda, cuando una batalla más ganaría la guerra, pero el tesoro de guerra estaba vacío. • El presidente de EE.UU., que murió repentinamente después de prometer a los árabes que no habría estado de Israel sin su aprobación. • El presidente de EE.UU. que ordenó, "¡Lo que sea necesario, salvar a Israel!" y una operación de apoyo militar masiva fue enviada cuando Israel se enfrentó a la derrota por los árabes. • Los cuatro presidentes estadounidenses que traicionaron a Israel, y vieron a Estados Unidos devastado inmediatamente por desastres cada vez más costosos.

Download or read book On the Edge of the Panel written by Julio Cañero and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-04 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To create a comic is not to illustrate words, but to create narrative diagrams and transform strokes into imaging words. The infinite array of possibilities that the merging of text and pictures provides is a garden of forking paths that critics have just started to explore. This is an art that operates as the crossroads of various disciplines, but whose specifications require a thorough understanding of its unique mechanisms. The explosion of experimental works and the incorporation of previously marginal (or nonexistent) genres and themes in comics have enriched an already fruitful art in ways that continue to surprise both readers and critics. This collection of essays offers a space of reflection on the cultural, social, historical, and ideological dimensions of comics. With this in the background, the book focuses on three main areas: the origins and definitions of comics; the formal tools of the medium; and authors and their works. The historical and formal approach to comics, as shown here, is still essential and the debate about the origins and definition is still present, but two thirds of this collection formulate other treatments that scholars had not started to tackle until recently. Does this mean that the study of comics has finally reached the necessary confidence to abandon the artistic legitimization of the medium? Or are they just new self defense mechanisms through alliances with other fields of academic interest? This book will add to the debate on comics, as did the international conference that led to it. It provides a channel of communication with an art, a two-headed medium that, like the god Janus, operates as a hinge, as a meeting point, as a bridge between pictorial and literary expression.
Download or read book Using Spanish written by R. E. Batchelor and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-09-29 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2005 book is a guide to Spanish usage for those who have already acquired the basics of the language and wish to extend their knowledge. Unlike conventional grammars, it focuses on those areas of vocabulary and grammar which cause most difficulty to English speakers. It fully illustrates the differences between the Spanish of Spain and Latin America, and looks in detail at register variation. Complete with a full word index, this clear and easy-to-consult text guides students through the richness and diversity of this major world language. This new edition has been extensively revised and updated to take a fuller account of Latin-American (particularly Mexican) usage. The vocabulary sections have been significantly expanded, and now include examples which contextualize each word or expression. The presentation of many sections has been improved to make reference even easier than before, and some completely new material has been added on semi-technical vocabulary and Anglicisms.
