Book Los buenos europeos

Download or read book Los buenos europeos written by Duque, Félix and published by Ediciones Nóbel, S.A.. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De poco serviría la progresiva caída de las barreras que separaban a los pueblos europeos, tras las dos guerras mundiales y la llamada "guerra fría", si no se intentase investigar los lazos (o los rechazos) profundos que, en el orden del pensamiento y de los grandes presupuestos sobre el sentido del individuo, de la nación y de la humanidad, o sea, en el orden filosófico, han mantenido unido -discordia concors- al Viejo Continente. Al mismo tiempo, el problema del terrorismo internacional y de sus secuelas bélicas exige de Europa una concentración de sus fuerzas, intelectuales y políticas, para hacerse oír con voz propia.Un problema avivado por recientes conflictos, cuyo inicio esencial se sitúa sin embargo mucho más lejos: en la tierra mítica del Jardín, con su doble tensión:la autoctonía griega o el desarraigojudío, y en la magnífica consigna de la Revolución Francesa y en el desarrollo por separado de sus tres ideales: generadores del liberalismo, el fascismo y el comunismo, para desembocar en la "herida" Europa, expectante e inquieta ante la amenaza y la seducción (América y el Islam presentan ambos rasgos, cada uno a su modo).Difícil resulta, en esta coyuntura, ser de veras buenos europeos.Pero ahora, más que nunca, es ello necesario.

  • Author : Julio MacLennan
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2018-07-03
  • ISBN : 1681778246
  • Pages : 634 pages

Download or read book Europa written by Julio MacLennan and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European history is deeply embedded in the global civilization that has emerged in the twenty-first century. More than two thirds of today’s nations were once European colonies or protectorates. Europe’s legacy is evident in the trajectory of the United States and has influenced aspiring hegemonic powers like China. For centuries, Europe was the heart and soul of the West, and European powers enjoyed unprecedented global hegemony, not only by military and economic means, but also through their influence on politics and culture. The rise and fall of the European era of world supremacy constitutes one of the most epic histories of all time. Europa reveals the origins of Europe’s rapid expansion, which was then expanded upon further by millions of Europeans migrants, who spread their culture and values. MacLennan also reveals how statesmen, scientists, inventors, philosophers, writers, and revolutionaries were responsible for transforming the continent into a civilization that inspired universal attraction.

Book Mediated Identities in the Futures of Place  Emerging Practices and Spatial Cultures

Download or read book Mediated Identities in the Futures of Place Emerging Practices and Spatial Cultures written by Lakshmi Priya Rajendran and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the emerging problems and opportunities that are posed by media innovations, spatial typologies, and cultural trends in (re)shaping identities within the fast-changing milieus of the early 21st Century. Addressing a range of social and spatial scales and using a phenomenological frame of reference, the book draws on the works of Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty and Don Hide to bridge the seemingly disparate, yet related theoretical perspectives across a number of disciplines. Various perspectives are put forward from media, human geography, cultural studies, technologies, urban design and architecture etc. and looked at thematically from networked culture and digital interface (and other) perspectives. The book probes the ways in which new digital media trends affect how and what we communicate, and how they drive and reshape our everyday practices. This mediatization of space, with fast evolving communication platforms and applications of digital representations, offers challenges to our notions of space, identity and culture and the book explores the diverse yet connected levels of technology and people interaction.

  • Author : John King
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 1986-12-04
  • ISBN : 0521268494
  • Pages : 246 pages

Download or read book Sur written by John King and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1986-12-04 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of Sur, Argentina's foremost literary and cultural journal of the twentieth century. Victoria Ocampo (its founder and lifelong editor) and Jorge Luis Borges (a regular and influential contributor) feature prominently in the story, while the contributions of other major writers (including Eduardo Mallea, William Faulkner, André Breton, Virginia Woolf, Alfonso Reyes, Octavio Paz, Waldo Frank, Aldous Huxley and Graham Greene) are discussed. Politically speaking, Sur represented a certain brand of liberalism, a resistance to populism and mass culture, and an attachment to elitist values which offended against the more dominant phases of Argentine thought, from Peronism to the varied forms of nationalism, socialism and Marxism. Dr King examines the journal's roots, its development and its demise, relating it to other journals circulating at the time, and highlighting vital issues debated in its pages, such as Argentine attitudes towards fascism during the Second World War.

Book Black Voices in Early Modern Spanish Literature  1500 1750

Download or read book Black Voices in Early Modern Spanish Literature 1500 1750 written by Diana Berruezo-Sánchez and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-09-05 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking study, Diana Berruezo-Sánchez recovers key chapters in the history of Afro-Iberian diasporas by exploring the literary contributions and life experiences of black African communities and individuals in early modern Spain. From the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries, international trade involving chattel slavery led to significant populations of enslaved, free(d), and half-manumitted black African women, men, and children in the Iberian Peninsula. These demographic changes transformed Spain's urban and social landscapes. In exploring Spain's role in the transatlantic slave trade and its effects on cultural forms of the period, Berruezo-Sánchez examines a broad range of texts and unearths new documents relating to black African poets, performers, and black confraternities. Her discoveries evince the broad yet largely disregarded literary and artistic impact of the African diaspora in early modern Spain, expanding the scope of linguistic practices beyond habla de negros and creating space for early modern black poets in the Spanish literary canon. These textual sources challenge established understandings of black Africans and black African history in early modern Spain. They show how black Africans exerted significant cultural agency by collectively contributing to and shaping the literary texts of the period, including those of the popular genre villancicos de negros, and by developing artistic traditions as musicians, dancers, and poets. As both creators and consumers of cultural forms, black African men and women navigated a restrictive, coercive slave society yet negotiated their own physical and cultural spaces.

Book Nietzsche and Dostoevsky

Download or read book Nietzsche and Dostoevsky written by Paolo Stellino and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2015-09-17 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first time that Nietzsche crossed the path of Dostoevsky was in the winter of 1886–87. While in Nice, Nietzsche discovered in a bookshop the volume L’esprit souterrain. Two years later, he defined Dostoevsky as the only psychologist from whom he had anything to learn. The second, metaphorical encounter between Nietzsche and Dostoevsky happened on the verge of nihilism. Nietzsche announced the death of God, whereas Dostoevsky warned against the danger of atheism. This book describes the double encounter between Nietzsche and Dostoevsky. Following the chronological thread offered by Nietzsche’s correspondence, the author provides a detailed analysis of Nietzsche’s engagement with Dostoevsky from the very beginning of his discovery to the last days before his mental breakdown. The second part of this book aims to dismiss the wide-spread and stereotypical reading according to which Dostoevsky foretold and criticized in his major novels some of Nietzsche’s most dangerous and nihilistic theories. In order to reject such reading, the author focuses on the following moral dilemma: If God does not exist, is everything permitted?
