Book excerpt: La vuelta al mundo en diez colores En este cautivador viaje a través de los colores de la paleta cromática, Victoria Finlay nos lleva a una apasionante aventura alrededor del mundo y a través de los tiempos, desentrañando cómo los colores que elegimos han determinado la historia de la cultura. ¿Cómo viajó el preciado color azul ultramar desde las remotas minas de lapislázuli de Afganistán hasta el pincel de Miguel Ángel? ¿Cuál es la relación entre la pintura marrón y las antiguas momias egipcias? ¿Por qué Robin Hood vestía de verde Lincoln? Finlay explora los materiales físicos que colorean nuestro mundo, como los minerales preciosos y la sangre de los insectos, así como los significados sociales y políticos que el color ha tenido a lo largo del tiempo. Por ejemplo, los emperadores romanos solían llevar togas teñidas de un color púrpura que se fabricaba con un oloroso marisco libanés, es probable que así anunciaran su llegada. Algunas de las primeras plantaciones de índigo las inició, en Estados Unidos, una chica de 17 años llamada Eliza. Y el popular cuadro de Van Gogh, Rosas blancas , que se encuentra en la National Gallery de Washington, tuvo que ser rebautizado después de que un investigador descubriera que las flores estaban hechas originalmente con una pintura rosa que se había desvanecido hacía casi un siglo. Color está repleto de personas, acontecimientos y anécdotas extraordinarios que te harán ver nuestro mundo a través de otros filtros.

Download or read book News from the Empire written by Fernando del Paso and published by Dalkey Archive Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If there was not so much fiction in News from the Empire, it could be called a work of history. In fact, the focus of this broad work is history itself, as well as the many unrecorded lives and events that history has forgotten from this strange era in Mexico's early nationhood. Using Emperor Maximilian and his wife, Carlota, as a starting point, Fernando Del Paso both considers what Mexico is and the country's place in the larger narrative of world history. The book spans the palaces of Europe and the villages of Mexico, yet despite its broad focus News is a book rich in characters and details, a work that opens up this era of Mexican history to readers without specialized knowledge. Maximilian and Carlota are the focus of the book, and even if they are not explicitly on every page, they are always in the background somewhere, providing the humanizing contradictions that fill it. Del Paso draws a complicated picture of two naïve people placed in a situation they could not manage and a country they did not understand. This innocence is especially inexplicable in the case of Maximilian, who, as brother of Austria's Emperor Franz Josef, should have known something about ruling but is completely unable to govern.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A celebration of one of the world’s most influential painters, Frida Kahlo, and the animals that inspired her art and life—now available in paperback! Pura Belpré Illustrator Honor , 2018 ALA Notable Children's Book, 2018 Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year, 2018 New York Times/New York Public Library Best Illustrated Children's Book, 2017 Barnes & Noble Best Book, 2017 Smithsonian Top Ten Best Children's Book, 2017 The fascinating Mexican artist Frida Kahlo is remembered for her self-portraits, her dramatic works featuring bold and vibrant colors. Her work brought attention to Mexican and indigenous culture and she is also renowned for her works celebrating the female form. Monica Brown’s story recounts pivotal moments in Frida’s life and the beloved pets who comforted her along the way—two monkeys, a parrot, three dogs, two turkeys, an eagle, a black cat, and a fawn—and playfully considers how Frida embodied many wonderful characteristics of each animal. John Parra’s bold-colored art, reminiscent of Frida’s palette, make this biography a warm and wonder-filled offering for Frida Kahlo fans old and new.
