Download or read book Memoria written by Orlando Ricardo Menes and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2019-02-06 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born to Cuban parents in Lima, Perú, raised in Miami among political exiles, and having spent two years in Francoist Spain, Orlando Ricardo Menes pays tribute to the resilience and tradition that shape Hispanic culture across the globe while critiquing the hypermasculine characteristics embedded within. Ripe with pride and shame, beauty and aversion, Memoria relays the personal path one takes while navigating the complexities of heritage. Throughout his life, the ever-present concept of machismo has created turmoil and grief for Menes, who aligns his sensibilities with a more compassionate expression of masculinity. In poems about the Franco dictatorship and the Spanish Civil War, Menes assails the fascists’ preoccupation with violence and domination as tokens of manliness. Meditations on the music of Menes’s youth also underscore a young man’s desire for alternative versions of manhood. Alice Cooper and Lou Reed offer examples of self-liberation from the repressive regime: “Cropped head, whitewashed face, O Lou, our goth-butch apostle / In skintight leather pants, eagle’s-head buckle on a rhinestone belt . . . Our mothers horrified to have borne sons so twisted, so perverse, / Their mop sticks primed to beat us into Marlboro Men.” Menes balances these unflinching criticisms with celebratory lines for España as a mother country: “We . . . sailed in silence on the asphalt currents / to Madrid’s Puerta del Sol, our little car / gliding like a caravel to this Gate of the Sun, / Spain’s navel, point zero, her alpha and omega, / where the empire was born and died, / where every road and every life begins and ends.” Menes’s honest embrace of his heritage includes fond remembrance of his mother, “we talked about your house in / Havana, so close to the bay your young eyes winced / in salt air,” and sincere expressions of cultural reckoning, “Nations die but blood lives forever in la memoria, / So pray to your Abuelo as you would God Himself / Who made earth, sky, and water from the void.” At once rich with sensorial memories and rife with conflicts of identity, Memoria expands representations of Hispanic culture while drawing on universal themes of love, belonging, and rebellion.

Book excerpt: Esta es la historia de Mi Papá realizando el sueño de su vida y donde al fi n logra conseguirlo, mi Hermano Paco sabiendo de ese sueño y también apasionado de África lo logra llevar a cabo para que lo pudiera disfrutar antes de morir. Antes del viaje mi Papá nos heredó un gran cumulo de cartas escritas, su colección de piedras pintadas y barnizadas por Él, y un disco de música con todas las canciones que le gustaban con el título de "Por Si Acaso", Él siempre dijo que de la vida debería de despedirse cuando la vida le sonriera mas y en el momento en que te se sintieras más feliz y satisfecho. Ciertamente el viaje le dio la oportunidad de que la vida le sonriera como nunca lo había hecho, conoció todos los lugares que siempre soñó y tuvo el momento más feliz de su vida: el final del trayecto donde le abre los brazos a la vida y le pide que lo tomara y se lo llevara. Este libro es parte de su legado, el único libro escrito de manera coloquial, ya que tiene cuentos, novelas y poemas, fue escritor, poeta, pintor, arquitecto y bohemio. Por lo pronto les dejo este sueño cumplido para que lo vivan con Él, está lleno de anécdotas, de historias, fotografías y pensamientos de la travesía y el desenlace con un final donde nos hereda su legado y nos dice quien y como fue.

Download or read book bookdown written by Yihui Xie and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-12-12 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: bookdown: Authoring Books and Technical Documents with R Markdown presents a much easier way to write books and technical publications than traditional tools such as LaTeX and Word. The bookdown package inherits the simplicity of syntax and flexibility for data analysis from R Markdown, and extends R Markdown for technical writing, so that you can make better use of document elements such as figures, tables, equations, theorems, citations, and references. Similar to LaTeX, you can number and cross-reference these elements with bookdown. Your document can even include live examples so readers can interact with them while reading the book. The book can be rendered to multiple output formats, including LaTeX/PDF, HTML, EPUB, and Word, thus making it easy to put your documents online. The style and theme of these output formats can be customized. We used books and R primarily for examples in this book, but bookdown is not only for books or R. Most features introduced in this book also apply to other types of publications: journal papers, reports, dissertations, course handouts, study notes, and even novels. You do not have to use R, either. Other choices of computing languages include Python, C, C++, SQL, Bash, Stan, JavaScript, and so on, although R is best supported. You can also leave out computing, for example, to write a fiction. This book itself is an example of publishing with bookdown and R Markdown, and its source is fully available on GitHub.
Download or read book Scripted Geographies written by Gayle R. Nunley and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study offers the first book-length exploration of travel narratives by nineteenth-century Spanish authors. Focusing on texts produced during a crucial period in the development of Spain's modern consciousness at the close of its imperial age, Scripted Geographies shows how writers' strategies of travel representation reflected and participated in this process of cultural transformation. The first two chapters, devoted to travel within Europe, explore constructions of Spain's sometimes problematic encounter with Western society and traditions. The final chapters shift to orientalist travel, allowing reflection on how Spanish renderings of the non-Western other intersect with patterns found in the better-known corpus of orientalist literature produced in then-ascendant imperial powers like Britain and France. These textual constructions of cultural difference reflect at a profound level their authors' preoccupations and hopes for Spain, as well as their strong awareness of both the powers and dangers inherent in the process of representing real world experience via language. Professor of Spanish at the University of Vermont.

Download or read book Memory Battles of the Spanish Civil War written by Sebastiaan Faber and published by Vanderbilt University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-30 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to forget the violent twentieth-century past was long seen as a virtue in Spain, even a duty. But the common wisdom has shifted as increasing numbers of Spaniards want to know what happened, who suffered, and who is to blame. Memory Battles of the Spanish Civil War shows how historiography, fiction, and photography have shaped our views of the 1936-39 war and its long, painful aftermath. Faber traces the curious trajectories of iconic Spanish Civil War photographs by Robert Capa, Gerda Taro, and David Seymour; critically reads a dozen recent Spanish novels and essays; interrogates basic scholarly assumptions about history, memory, and literature; and interviews nine scholars, activists, and documentarians who in the past decade and a half have helped redefine Spain's relationship to its past. In this book Faber argues that recent political developments in Spain--from the grassroots call for the recovery of historical memory to the indignados movement and the foundation of Podemos--provide an opportunity for scholars in the humanities to engage in a more activist, public, and democratic practice.
Download or read book Yann Tiersen Kerber written by Yann Tiersen and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Piano Solo Songbook). "I think there is a similarity between the infinite big and the infinite smallness of everything," says Yann Tiersen. "It's the same experiment looking through a microscope as it is a telescope." Named after a chapel in a small village on the island of Ushant, Kerber marks a new chapter in critically-acclaimed composer Yann Tiersen's career. A chapter still true to Tiersen's nuanced and subtle approach but one that sets out with his most overtly electronic material to date. Beautifully textured, highly immersive and thoughtfully constructed, Tiersen creates an electronic world, providing an environment in which the piano source exists. A sense of place has often been a central theme in Tiersen's work and here that is no different. Each track is tied to a place mapping out the immediate landscape that surrounds Tiersen's home, linking back to his thoughts on the possibilities of the infinite smallness. This official, exclusive folio is beautifully printed on high-quality, uncoated paper with striking graphic artwork. All seven pieces are presented for solo piano and follow an exclusive introduction to the project.

Book excerpt: Existe la historia oficial de un país, y la "otra" historia que jóvenes investigadores y eruditos tales como Julio Pinto Vallejos y Carlos Ruiz Rodríguez han ido revelando en sus trabajos, creando un balance más justo en el recuento de los hechos que ha vivido la nación chilena. Juan Daniel Brito no es un historiador, sin embargo en conversaciones con escritores y periodistas de su país, llega a la conclusión de que la recopilación de testimonios de "sus mayores," y familiares le abrían una nueva perspectiva acerca de su origen, y al hecho de pertenecer a una primera generación de hijos de campesinos del sur o de mineros del norte que llegaron a Santiago en la década de los años 30, ' y que con esfuerzo y sacrificios fueron parte del proceso de expansión demográfica de Santiago hacia sus cuatro puntos cardinales. Son estos "exiliados" del sur y del norte quienes fundan las "poblaciones," cuya historia se tiene aún que narrar.
