Book excerpt: La historia de esta novela empieza con el Golpe de Estado realizado por un cabo del ejército, Juan Buenavista, y termina con una yerna del dictador asumiendo la Vicepresidencia de la República. Gaetano, hijo mayor del dictador, debido a las brutalidades cometidas por la dictadura, se reveló contra su padre, participando en su asesinato. Después de asumir la presidencia, el mismo Gaetano estableció el culto al Señor Presidente, del cual su propio hijo, Alberto Buenavista, llegó a ser heredero. Se dice que los triunfadores escriben la historia, aunque ni el triunfo ni el progreso sean una señal de virtud. Sin embargo, los Buenaventura, guiados por un aparente sentido claro de destino, y contando a la Presidencia de la República entre sus derechos de herencia, escribieron la historia, la cual con el tiempo se convertirá en una de las muchas leyendas que suelen abundar en los pueblos que nacen, viven y mueren allende los mares...
Download or read book Cinematic Journeys in Latin America written by Richard Francaviglia and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2023-08-30 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically examines how movies that feature real or imagined explorers and expeditions creatively feature the geography of Latin America. It focuses on how locales are scripted into film plots and artistically depicted, and demonstrates that place is as important as any character in a film, especially in this genre. Nineteen key films are analyzed. Some, like Aguirre, the Wrath of God, Fitzcarraldo, The Other Conquest, Embrace of the Serpent, and The Lost City of Z are based on the exploits of real explorers. Others are fictional, including Apocalypto, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and Dora and the Lost City of Gold. The author also discusses the evolution of exploration-discovery films, including trends that will likely be found in forthcoming movies.
Download or read book Nibiru written by Sam and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Con toda probabilidad, hace ya 5 milenios, fuimos visitados por una raza extraterrestre cuyo testimonio se niega a desaparecer y todavía perdura inmerso en cantidad de mitos, leyendas y cosmogonías. Nibiru tan sólo es una de las múltiples denominaciones que en la antigüedad recibió su lugar de origen: un planeta que recorre incansablemente las profundidades del Sistema Solar, de un modo muy característico. Sam propone un recorrido tras las huellas del astro, aunque más que huellas constituyen una biografía entera, a través del testimonio del pueblo Dogón y los vestigios del antiguo Egipto y la vieja Mesopotamia. Sin duda, un itinerario apasionante que no dejará a nadie indiferente, marcando un antes y un después; porque en esta obra... no hay espacio para cabos sueltos ni se deja nada en el aire.
