Book excerpt: Las Estaciones de la Cruz se convirtió en una práctica devocional Cristina en el siglo XIII. Usan el ritual metafóricamente para viajar con Él desde su juicio hasta su tumba. Los participantes están de pie ante réplicas para seguir a Jesucristo en sus últimos momentos de sufrimiento mientras caminaba hacia la Montaña del Calvario. El camino entre su condena en la corte y la crucificción final es conocida como Vía Dolorosa o Vía Crucis. En Jerusalén todavía es recorrido por devotos peregrinos actualmente. El Vía Crucis no representa el caminar de un hombre en un día histórico, sino el caminar de toda la humanidad. La idea no es convertirse en Cristo pero ganar conciencia de la condición humana y llegar a la conclusión: "Si Cristo lo hizo, yo también puedo". La condición humana ha cambiado un poco durante los últimos dos mil años. Todos todavía nos sentimos abandonados. Trabajadores migrantes, soldados, prisioneros, vícticas de discriminación racial y de violencia, los pobres y los que no tienen hogar, los dolientes y los enfermos mentales están entre quienes nos encontramos en el camino. Cuando enfocamos nuestra mente y nuestro corazón en El Camino, nos damos cuenta de que hay fuerza en su ejemplo, cualquiera que sean nuestras circunstancias. La Cuaresma comprende 40 días antes de Pascua, una época dedicada a la examinación profunda y la reflexión del "Yo". Desde los primeros días del cristianismo, los seguidores de Jesús contaron la historia de su pasión, muerte y resurrección. Los peregrinos que llegaron a Jerusalén estaban ansiosos por ver los lugares por los que Jesús caminó. Cuando el cristianismo se enraizó en todo el mundo, estos lugares sagrados resultaron muy lejos para viajar. Mi pequeña colección resalta las manos y los rostros de Jesús para enfatizar nuestra común condición humana. Las Estaciones exaltan el sufrimiento injusto, particularmente por aquellos que pelean en contra de la autoridad. Al final de la meditación, se hace claro que cada uno de nosotros es visto, tocado y crucificado por Cristo cada día.

Book Writing Across Cultures

  • Author : Angel Rama
  • Publisher : Duke University Press
  • Release : 2012-05-29
  • ISBN : 0822352931
  • Pages : 266 pages

Download or read book Writing Across Cultures written by Angel Rama and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-29 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ángel Rama was one of twentieth-century Latin America's most distinguished men of letters. Writing across Cultures is his comprehensive analysis of the varied sources of Latin American literature. Originally published in 1982, the book links Rama's work on Spanish American modernism with his arguments about the innovative nature of regionalist literature, and it foregrounds his thinking about the close relationship between literary movements, such as modernism or regionalism, and global trends in social and economic development. In Writing across Cultures, Rama extends the Cuban anthropologist Fernando Ortiz's theory of transculturation far beyond Cuba, bringing it to bear on regional cultures across Latin America, where new cultural arrangements have been forming among indigenous, African, and European societies for the better part of five centuries. Rama applies this concept to the work of the Peruvian novelist, poet, and anthropologist José María Arguedas, whose writing drew on both Spanish and Quechua, Peru's two major languages and, by extension, cultures. Rama considered Arguedas's novel Los ríos profundos (Deep Rivers) to be the most accomplished example of narrative transculturation in Latin America. Writing across Cultures is the second of Rama's books to be translated into English.

Book excerpt: "Substantially the book that devotees of the director have been waiting for: a full-length critical work about Ozu's life, career and working methods, buttressed with reproductions of pages from his notebooks and shooting scripts, numerous quotes from co-workers and Japanese critics, a great many stills and an unusually detailed filmography."—Sight and Sound Yasujiro Ozu, the man whom his kinsmen consider the most Japanese for all film directors, had but one major subject, the Japanese family, and but one major theme, its dissolution. The Japanese family in dissolution figures in every one of his fifty-three films. In his later pictures, the whole world exists in one family, the characters are family members rather than members of a society, and the ends of the earth seem no more distant than the outside of the house.

Book The Uncomfortable Dead

  • Author : Subcomandante Marcos
  • Publisher : Akashic Books
  • Release : 2010-02-01
  • ISBN : 1936070758
  • Pages : 305 pages

Download or read book The Uncomfortable Dead written by Subcomandante Marcos and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2010-02-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stylized reissue of the acclaimed, surreal noir collaboration between Mexico’s greatest writer and its most courageous revolutionary. “Taibo’s expertise ensures a smart, funny book, and Marcos brings a wry sense of humor.” —Publishers Weekly In alternating chapters, Zapatista leader Subcomandante Marcos and the consistently excellent Paco Ignacio Taibo II create an uproarious murder mystery with two intersecting storylines. The chapters written by the famously masked Marcos originate in the mountains of Chiapas, Mexico. There, the fictional “Subcomandante Marcos” assigns Elias Contreras—an odd but charming mountain man—to travel to Mexico City in search of an elusive and hideous murderer named “Morales.” The second story line, penned by Taibo, stars his famous series detective Hector Belascoaran Shayne. Hector guzzles Coca-Cola and smokes cigarettes furiously amidst his philosophical and always charming approach to investigating crimes—in this case, the search for his own “Morales.” The two stories collide absurdly and dramatically in the urban sprawl of Mexico City. The ugly history of the city’s political violence rears its head, and both detectives find themselves in an unpredictable dance of death with forces at once criminal, historical, and political. Readers expecting political heavy-handedness will be disarmed by the humility and playful self-mocking that runs throughout the book.

Book Mediterranean Enlightenment

  • Author : Francesca Bregoli
  • Publisher : Stanford University Press
  • Release : 2014-06-18
  • ISBN : 0804791597
  • Pages : 356 pages

Download or read book Mediterranean Enlightenment written by Francesca Bregoli and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-18 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mediterranean port of Livorno was home to one of the most prominent and privileged Jewish enclaves of early modern Europe. Focusing on Livornese Jewry, this book offers an alternative perspective on Jewish acculturation during the eighteenth century, and reassesses common assumptions about the interactions of Jews with outside culture and the impact of state reforms on the corporate Jewish community. Working from a vast array of previously untapped archival and literary sources, Francesca Bregoli combines cultural analysis with a study of institutional developments to investigate Jewish responses to Enlightenment thought and politics, as well as non-Jewish perceptions of Jews, through an exploration of Jewish-Christian cultural exchange, sites of sociability, and reformist policies. Mediterranean Enlightenment shows that Livornese Jewish scholars engaged with Enlightenment ideals and aspired to contribute to society at large without weakening the boundaries of traditional Jewish life. By arguing that the privileged status of Livorno Jewry had conservative rather than liberalizing effects, it also challenges the notion that economic utility facilitates Jewish integration, nuancing received wisdom about processes of emancipation in Europe.

Book Building in time

Download or read book Building in time written by Marvin Trachtenberg and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the pre-modern age in Europe, the architect built not merely with imagination, bricks and mortar, but with time, using vast quantities of duration as the means to erect monumental buildings that otherwise would have been impossible to achieve. Virtually all the great cathedrals of France and the rest of Europe were built by this deliberate practice, here given the name "Building-in-Time." It places an entirely new light on the major works of pre-modern Italy, from the Pisa cathedral group to the cathedrals of Milan, Venice and Siena, and from the monuments of fourteenth-century Florence to the new St Peter's. Even as this temporal regime was flourishing, the fifteenth-century Italian architect Leon Battista Alberti proposed a new one for architecture, in which time would ideally be excluded from the making of architecture ("Building-outside-Time"). Planning and building, which had always formed one fluid, imbricated process, were to be sharply divided, and the change that always came with time was to be excluded from architectural making.
