The presenters were leading architects and architectural historians from the region, and attendees included their colleagues as well as local and international university students, policy makers, civic leaders and developers from Jamaica, the surrounding Caribbean isalnds and the United States. This illustrated volume, co-published by MoMA and Archivos de Arquitectura Antillana (AAA), an architectural journal based in the Dominican Republic, presents the papers from this critical symposium in both English and Spanish, making them accessible to a broader public.

Book excerpt: Aqui la historia real es el viaje inconcluso del Cristo de la Veracruz desde Espana hasta la costa sur de Cuba en el ano 1713, a bordo de un mercante espanol. Se quedo en Trinidad por voluntad propia, negandose a abandonar aquella tierra segun rezan la historia y la leyenda, alli permanecio y alli continua hasta el presente, venerado en la iglesia de la Santisima Trinidad por todo aquel que cree en El y en sus milagros. La parte imaginaria nos cuenta la historia de una joven nacida en las cumbres del Macizo de Garraf, en Cataluna, que huye de su misera existencia privada de afectos y, con ese fin, se embarca como polizon en el mismo barco encargado de trasladar el Cristo a su destino; ella se sobrepone a sus miedos, enfrenta el peligro segun se le presenta dia a dia, desembarca para quedarse en el mismo lugar que lo hace la imagen sagrada. Anos despues escribe sus memorias y deja el manuscrito aprisionado en las paredes de un palacete trinitario del Siglo XVIII donde vivio hasta su muerte.

Download or read book Poetry Of Discovery written by Andrew Debicki and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-11-21 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leading critic of contemporary Spanish poetry examines here the work of ten important poets who came to maturity in the immediate post-Civil War period and whose major works appeared between 1956 and 1971: Francisco Brines; Eladio Cabañero; Angel Crespo; Gloria Fuertes; Jaime Gil de Biedma; Angel González; Manuel Mantero; Claudio Rodríguez; Carlos Sahagún; and José Angel Valente. Although each of these poets has developed an individual style, their work has certain common characteristics: use of the everyday language and images of contemporary Spain, development of language codes and intertextual references, and, most strikingly, metaphoric transformations and surprising reversals of the reader's expectations. Through such means these poets clearly invite their readers to join them in journeys of poetic discovery. Andrew P. Debicki's is the first detailed stylistic analysis of this generation of poets, and the first to approach their work through the particularly appropriate methods developed in "reader-response" criticism.

Download or read book Una Luz y una Copa de Vino written by Ricardo Orme Valdiz N. and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laurita cogió rápidamente una silla y parándose encima trató de observar por la pequeña y alta ventana sin percatarse que sus bellas piernas producían una mirada fija en el doctor Frías. Laura se esforzaba por fisgar detenidamente, pudiendo advertir sólo un tumulto de gente rodeando algo, Carlos Venturo era ese algo y esa mañana había decidido quitarse la vida ingresando furtivamente al nosocomio y dejándose caer desde el quinto piso. Así empieza unos de los cuentos que componen esta perturbadora decena narrativa en que la inquietante clientela del doctor Frías lleva su patología al límite, para finalmente terminar pareciéndose a nosotros. El autor explora los problemas familiares y matrimoniales, la soledad y el desamor. El cirujano plástico que funge de personaje principal y eje del libro se refugia en extrañas y misteriosas experiencias oníricas descubriendo de este modo un escape a la atemorizante realidad. Un conjunto de textos con la profundidad reflexiva de Paul Auster, la precisión idiomática de los mejores textos de Raymond Carver y una sensualidad mezcla de Nabokov y Bkovsky.

Download or read book Six Masters of the Spanish Sonnet written by Willis Barnstone and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With poems selected and translated by one of the preeminent translators of our day, this bilingual collection of 112 sonnets by six Spanish-language masters of the form ranges in time from the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries and includes the works of poets from Spanish America as well as poets native to Spain. Willis Barnstone's selection of sonnets and the extensive historical and biographical background he supplies serve as a compelling survey of Spanish-language poetry that should be of interest both to lovers of poetry in general and to scholars of Spanish-language literature in particular. Following an introductory examination of the arrival of the sonnet in Spain and of that nation's poetry up to Francisco de Quevedo, Barnstone takes up his six masters in chronological turn, preceding each with an essay that not only presents the sonneteer under discussion but also continues the carefully delineated history of Spanish-language poetry. Consistently engaging and informative and never dull or pedantic, these essays stand alone as appreciations--in the finest sense of that word--of some of the greatest poets ever to write. It is, however, Barnstone's subtle, musical, clear, and concise translations that form the heart of this collection. As Barnstone himself says, "In many ways all my life has been some kind of preparation for this volume."
