Download or read book Enemies Within written by María Sierra and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-25 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can citizenship rights be denied to significant groups in a society that regards itself as civilized and self-governing? Is it possible to exclude such people in the name of freedom and reason? Is it plausible to explain classifications that differentiate between first- and second-class citizens as “natural”? This is the paradox inherent in modern politics, born of the revolutions that ended the Ancien Régime in the western world. Throughout the nineteenth century and at the beginning of the twentieth, liberalism inspired a representative form of government that appealed to citizenship, yet marginalized many social groups, including natives, women, immigrants, workers, slaves and nomads. In the Hispanic dimension of the Atlantic world that this book deals with, modern politics was based on exclusions explained as natural and necessary. In both Europe and America, a distinction was made between the responsible citizen and those “others” in society, potential “enemies within”, who had to be controlled and supervised. This book explains the success of this political operation by analysing the historical construction of figures of alterity that were fundamental to the definition of national civic identities. Its basic premise is that imaginaries that were constructed in the nineteenth century can be found even today in western political conceptions. The cultural complexity of enduring political images is revealed by exploring the inner workings of virtuous figures in relation to their opposites: readers will find the mosaic of representations of civic alterity both recognisable and surprising. The contributors to this volume provide historical perspectives on the debate on political legitimacy in open societies. Reinventing democracies involves understanding the historicity of inherited formulae of governance and considering them, therefore, as amenable to improvement. The readiness to do this is not a threat to democracy but, rather, a commitment to looking for it.

Download or read book Concerning the Angels written by Rafael Alberti and published by City Lights Books. This book was released on 1995 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in Spain in the summer of 1929, Concerning the Angels (Sobre los angeles) is the great Spanish poet Rafael Alberti's masterpiece, on a par with T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land, Pablo Neruda's Residencia en la tierra, and Federico Garcia Lorca's Poeta en Nueva York. It marks a major departure from the light-hearted tone of the poet's earlier verse, which was notably influence by Andalusian folksong. This bilingual text is at once intensely imaginative and intimately realistic, a lyrical illumination of the poet's "dark night of the soul." Rafael Alberti, born in 1902, is the last surviving member of the so-called Generation of 1927 that included such notable Spanish poets Federico Garcia Lorca, Vincente Alexandre, Pedro Salinas, Jorge Guillen, and Luis Cernuda. Christopher Sawyer-Laucanno lives in Massachusetts and teaches in the program in Writing and Humanistic Studies at MIT.

Download or read book D Ors fil sofo written by Mercè Rius and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2014-09-04 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mercè Rius, pone de manifiesto en este estudio que la obra de Eugenio d'Ors conectaba con los debates filosóficos del siglo XX mediante hilos mucho más finos que los percibidos inicialmente. Hoy se ratifica en su creciente estimación, sobre todo frente a aquellos cuya empedernida ignorancia llega al colmo de negarle todavía la credencial de filósofo. A través de esta investigación, la autora trata de mostrar que D'Ors, ni se equivocaba ni obraba de mala fe al considerarse ante todo filósofo. Para ello, realiza un balance de la filosofía orsiana resituándola en un horizonte más vasto tras descubrirle nuevos aspectos, cuyas afinidades con otros autores contemporáneos de tradición europea sugieren el alto nivel y la oportunidad histórica del pensamiento orsiano.
