Download or read book Historias de la Dama Negra written by Marisol Pita and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-02-25 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Historias de la Dama Negra" es un libro de lírica narrativa y prosa poética, que combina textos e imágenes, y supone una continuación de "Reflexiones, pasiones, recuerdos y olvidos", anterior obra de Marisol Pita. En este caso se plantea como hilo conductor la revisión del mito de Lilith, la primera mujer, según la tradición judía, y no Eva como se ha popularizado, creada en igualdad de condiciones que el hombre. A través de diez relatos en los que se habla de esta figura, se introducen una serie de textos en los que se plantean cuestiones vitales fundamentales, como la necesidad de realización personal, o la importancia del amor en la vida. El amor es uno de los temas fundamentales del libro, entendiendo a las personas como seres que necesitan encontrarse reflejados con claridad en los ojos de otro para lograr su plenitud vital. Y es que somos libres, autónomos e independientes, pero necesitamos amar para lograr la total existencia.

Download or read book The New Mother and other stories written by Lucy Lane Clifford and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-11-08 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The writings of Lucy lane Clifford (who also wrote as Mrs W K Clifford) were for almost a century completely lost to obscurity, but during her lifetime this extraordinary woman was a friend and confidant of Henry James, Rudyard Kipling, Thomas Hardy and other luminaries of the day. This collection contains possibly her best works. Her writings, originally penned as cautionary didactic tales for Victorian children, present themselves as a cycle of unique fables of existential dread and alienation, worthy (at their best) of a Kafka or Borges. Ranging from paeans to autism ('Wooden Tony' or 'The Paper Fish') or surreal horror ('The New Mother') this collection asks for Mrs Clifford to be reappraised as a precursor to 20th century and 21st century literature. This collection has been augmented with collages by artist D M Mitchell to show the link to such allegorical artists as Leonora Carrington, Max Ernst and Toyen.

Download or read book Cultural Encounters written by Mary Elizabeth Perry and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-07-26 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than just an expression of religious authority or an instrument of social control, the Inquisition was an arena where cultures met and clashed on both shores of the Atlantic. This pioneering volume examines how cultural identities were maintained despite oppression. Persecuted groups were able to survive the Inquisition by means of diverse strategies—whether Christianized Jews in Spain preserving their experiences in literature, or native American folk healers practicing medical care. These investigations of social resistance and cultural persistence will reinforce the cultural significance of the Inquisition. Contributors: Jaime Contreras, Anne J. Cruz, Jesús M.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stranger Things meets Sideways Stories from Wayside School in this quirky supernatural middle grade novel about a boy on an unlikely quest to uncover an enchanted book to defeat an unearthly nemesis—from New York Times bestselling author Alyson Noël. When he first started seeing ghosts, Max mistakenly assumed everyone else could see them, too. Now, after years of being blamed for the pranks of mischievous spirits, Max is determined to do whatever it takes to make himself normal. But when he’s sent to spend the summer with his eccentric grandfather, Ramhart, being normal becomes impossible. Here in Glimmerville, bakeries sell enchanted pies, the lake is infested with mermaids, the town’s beloved ghosts roam free, and Ramhart himself is celebrated as the world’s most famous monster hunter. At first, all Max wants is to survive the summer, but the more time he spends in Glimmerville, the more he starts to wonder if he’s finally found a place where he can truly be himself. But when a supernatural attack steals Ramhart’s soul, Max—with the help of a few new friends—must go on a quest to find his grandfather’s renowned Field Guide, an enchanted book that contains all the knowledge Ramhart has gathered about defeating unearthly nemeses. And if they don’t find the book fast, Glimmerville will crumble into chaos, and Max will lose the only person who’s ever made him feel at home.
