Book La Historia

Download or read book La Historia written by Ing Julio a. Ruiz Ram Rez and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mucho se ha escrito de la Escuela Náutica de Mazatlán y referente al egregio marino "Capitán de Altura Antonio Gómez Maqueo"; un poco aquí, otro tanto más allá. La investigación del Ing. Julio Alfonso Ruiz Ramírez contabiliza abundantes horas en entrevistas con marinos de todas las edades y estratos sociales, revisión de viejas y gastadas hojas en el archivo municipal, registros de las sesiones del cabildo de antaño en busca de pistas sobre fechas, y búsquedas que dieran mayor luz a la fundación de la escuela o sobre el siempre evasivo pasado del capitán. Su pesquisa incluyó visitas a los cementerios, incluso viajes: a México y al lugar de nacimiento del marino, oriundo de Orizaba; todo ello para perfilar mejor sus rasgos y personalidad. Hurgar en el pasado es difícil, y más cuando los coterráneos de la persona investigada pasaron a mejor vida. El trabajo que emprendió Julio es con la finalidad de dejar la menor cantidad de lagunas posibles y poder así sacar a relucir los pormenores de su amada escuela y del marino que tanto tuvo que ver en su reapertura y fortalecimiento. Su compendio es un registro ameno cuya intención es la de poder llegar a los lectores interesados en descubrir las fases de la fundación de su alma mater y de conocer mejor a la persona que la consolidó. Es un libro valiosoque merece ser escudriñado cuantas veces sea necesario. Ing. Jorge A. Holcombe Isunza

Book Liminal Sovereignty

    Book Details:
  • Author : Rebecca Janzen
  • Publisher : SUNY Press
  • Release : 2018-08-27
  • ISBN : 1438471033
  • Pages : 256 pages

Download or read book Liminal Sovereignty written by Rebecca Janzen and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2018-08-27 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uses cultural representations to investigate how two religious minority communities came to be incorporated into the Mexican nation. Liminal Sovereignty examines the lives of two religious minority communities in Mexico, Mennonites and Mormons, as seen through Mexican culture. Mennonites emigrated from Canada to Mexico from the 1920s to the 1940s, and Mormons emigrated from the United States in the 1880s, left in 1912, and returned in the 1920s. Rebecca Janzen focuses on representations of these groups in film, television, online comics, photography, and legal documents. Janzen argues that perceptions of Mennonites and Mormons—groups on the margins and borders of Mexican society—illustrate broader trends in Mexican history. The government granted both communities significant exceptions to national laws to encourage them to immigrate; she argues that these foreshadow what is today called the Mexican state of exception. The groups’ inclusion into the Mexican nation shows that post-Revolutionary Mexico was flexible with its central tenets of land reform and building a mestizo race. Janzen uses minority communities at the periphery to give us a new understanding of the Mexican nation. “This subject matter has never been studied in this fashion before, nor with such theoretical sophistication. Not only is the book compelling, but it’s also illuminating.” — Pedro A. Palou, Tufts University

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sobre el libro Maricarmen, una mujer adulta de clase media que sobrevive en su espacio de comodidad relativa dando clases a extranjeros. Manuel, un profesor y militante retirado cuya vida se ha centrado en tener un pequeño restaurante en la ciudad de México en donde convive y comparte con amigos música, charla y recuerdos. Ambos han fincado una amistad de años compartiendo vacíos, vivencias y caminatas por el cerro del Ajusco donde encuentran un pequeño objeto. La rareza del objeto, la secrecía y las dudas de un investigador provocan el reencuentro solidario de varios amigos, una geóloga investigadora, un antropólogo que abandonó su pasión profesional. Lo que parece una quimera se convierte gradualmente en un mundo distinto que coexiste con la compleja realidad y crisis de nuestro planeta. La información que contiene aquel objeto comienza a volverse una obsesión a la vez que rescata los ideales y valores del pasado de cada uno. A la realidad ominosa del mundo contemporáneo, se aúnan las dudas sobre mundos paralelos y el sentido de la vida.

Book Secondhand China

  • Author : Carles Prado-Fonts
  • Publisher : Northwestern University Press
  • Release : 2022-06-15
  • ISBN : 0810144786
  • Pages : 349 pages

Download or read book Secondhand China written by Carles Prado-Fonts and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2022-06-15 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This transcultural study of cultural production brings to light the ways Spanish literature imagined China by relying on English- and French-language sources. Carles Prado-Fonts examines how the simultaneous dependence on and obscuring of translation in these cross-cultural representations created the illusion of a homogeneous West. He argues that Orientalism became an instrument of hegemony not only between “the West and the rest” but also within the West itself, where Spanish writers used representations of China to connect themselves to Europe, hone a national voice, or forward ideas of political and cultural modernity. Uncovering an eclectic and surprising archive, Prado-Fonts draws on diverse cultural artifacts from popular literature, journalism, and early cinema to offer a rich account of how China was seen across the West between 1880 and 1930. Enrique Gaspar, Luis de Oteyza, Vicente Blasco Ibáñez, and lesser-known authors writing in Spanish and Catalan put themselves in dialogue with Leo Tolstoy, John Dewey, W. Somerset Maugham, Bertrand Russell, Pearl Buck, and André Malraux, as well as stereotypical figures from popular culture like Fu Manchu and Charlie Chan. Throughout, Prado-Fonts exposes translation as a technology of cultural hegemony and China as an appealing object for representation. A timely contribution to our understanding of how we create and consume knowledge about the world, Secondhand China is essential reading for scholars and students of Orientalism, postcolonial studies, translation studies, comparative literature, and cultural studies.
