Download or read book Somos nuestra memoria written by Iván Izquierdo and published by Libros del Zorzal. This book was released on 2021 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La memoria tiene sus matices, sus vaivenes, sus luces y sombras. En esa intermitencia –entre olvidos y recuerdos– conformamos nuestra identidad individual, social e histórica, porque después de todo, somos nuestra memoria. Esa idea subyace a la constelación de textos presentes en este libro, uniendo diferentes temas como un hilo conductor, sin prescindir de cierta renovación permanente que instala al lector en un lugar activo: el lugar de quien piensa y establece relaciones. Con un lenguaje sencillo y agradable, y al mismo tiempo con lucidez y agudeza, Iván Izquierdo nos acerca sus reflexiones con una idea clara: “No espero, y en verdad no deseo, desencadenar el mimetismo de que alguien decida pensar igual que yo”, pero “habrá sin duda numerosos puntos de contacto entre lo que yo digo aquí y lo que piensa cada uno de los lectores. A esos puntos me dirijo, y a cada uno de ellos lo celebro”. Se celebra, entonces, la diversidad y la comunión de pensamiento. Un pensamiento que incluye cuestiones cotidianas, aspectos propios de la ciencia, temas existenciales, y material relativo a la política, la historia o la actividad literaria. Un pensamiento sensible, en definitiva, acerca de lo que recordamos, lo que olvidamos, lo que somos y lo que pretendemos ser.
Download or read book Illegal written by Peter A. Geniesse and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why have millions of Mexicans and other Latinos fled their homelands and risked their lives to come to the U.S. in search of a job? Why are they living in the shadows, ever fearful of being discovered by the migras and of being deported? Why is the United States, a nation of immigrants, which often welcomed and recruited millions of Mexicans workers in the past, now spending billions of dollars on walls, border patrols, detention centers and workplace raids to get them out and keep them out? The issue is as complex as it is divisive. There are root causes, of course, and U.S. politics and trade policies have played a major role in producing today's immigration crisis. But the migrants themselves, real people with real experiences related throughout "Illegal," are the most credible witnesses to the system gone awry as well as the injustices suffered and endured on both sides of the border. Let them tell you their poignant stories. Rosa lost her husband to the drug wars and Rogelio lost his best friend in the desert. Ernesto lost his farm. Enrique was deported after a workplace raid. And Cresencio and Hector now are living the American dream, thanks to the amnesty program of the 1980s. That's just a sample.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish contemporary poetry: An anthology presents a selection of Spanish peninsular poetry from the 1970s to the present day, with an introductory study of the most relevant poetic trends and poetic groups of the period, followed by guided and close readings of each poem. The anthology includes poems by twenty-two authors selected according to their literary rigour and with attention to the relevance of their work, a comprehensive introductory study, notes, thorough individual commentaries to the poems, and lists of selected vocabulary and rhetorical terms that provide accessibility to the anthology. The poetic selection is divided into sections and subsections in order to aid its pedagogical intent, covering: the poetry written during the transition to democracy; the emergence of poetry written by women in the 1980s; the Spanish poetic field of the 1990s; the poetry written at the turn of the new millennium; and some of the youngest voices in Spanish poetry today.

Download or read book Unsettled Urban Space written by Tihomir Viderman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While urban life can be characterized by endeavors to settle stable and safe environments, for many people, urban space is rarely stable or safe; it is uncertain, troubled, imbued with challenges and perpetually under pressure. As the concept of unsettled appears to define the contemporary urban experience, this multidisciplinary book investigates the conflicts and possibilities of settling and unsettling through open and speculative analysis. The analytical prism of unsettled renders urban space an indeterminate ground unfolding through routines, temporalities and contestations in constant tension between settling and unsettling. Such contrasting experiences are contingent on how urban societies confront, undergo and overcome turbulence and difficulties in time and space. Contributions drawing on theoretical reflections and empirical accounts—from Argentina, Austria, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, the UAE, the UK, the USA and Vietnam—give insights into plural occurrences of the unsettled, which might tie down or unleash transformative, liberatory and emancipatory potentials. This book is for students, professionals and researchers interested in the uncertainties, foundations, disturbances, inconsistencies, residuals and blind fields, which constitute the urban both as lived space and as social, cultural and political ideal.
