Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Madre anoche en las trincheras” es un estudio exhaustivo de investigación sobre el periplo de los hermanos Corral Martínez en la guerra de España a partir de treinta y seis cartas que remitieron desde los diversos frentes de batalla por los que pasaron. Dos hermanos movilizados por el Ejército Popular de la República para defender al estado leal de la sublevación militar del 18 de julio de 1936. El fracaso de ésta derivó en una guerra civil de 988 días dejando al país fracturado en dos, como también quedaron innumerables familias. Una guerra entre hermanos, conocidos, paisanos y familiares que decidieron dirimir los conflictos sociales sustituyendo la política por las armas.\r Naturales de la pedanía de Las Casillas, en Serón (Almería), desde su tierna infancia vieron cómo la vida les presentó su peor cara en un hábitat rural de una España muy distinta a la que hoy conocemos. La evolución de Antonio Miguel Corral Martínez en el levante valenciano y en el frente aragonés donde fue protagonista de los acontecimientos en torno a la famosa Bolsa de Bielsa con todos sus avatares históricos. La 43 División “La Heroica” vio como este seronero pronto ascendió a Cabo de una Compañía de Depósito dentro de la 130a Brigada Mixta del Ejército Popular.\r Felipe Corral Martínez quedó encuadrado en Alcalá de Henares (Madrid) a las órdenes de Valentín González González “El Campesino” formando parte de la famosa 46 División dentro de la 10a Brigada Mixta, 38o Batallón, 2a Compañía, la Batalla deTeruel y sus duras consecuencias, los Hospitales de Sanidad Militar valencianos. Nuevos destinos le aguardaban a nuestro hombre encuadrado en el Ejército del Norte en la 32 División como enlace de un Batallón de Ametralladoras Motorizado primero y como soldado de la 141a Brigada Mixta durante la Batalla del Ebro después, y de la 12a Brigada Mixta durante la retirada hacia Cataluña de finales de 1938. Conoceremos por último la represión franquista en los Batallones de Trabajadores que con el tiempo evolucionaron a Batallones Disciplinarios de Soldados de Trabajadores.\r Dos historias reales que nos sitúan a estos dos héroes olvidados en los acontecimientos de un país en guerra que sangró las heridas por los cuatro costados mientras en Las Casillas de Serón, sobrevivir era el gran objetivo de una población duramente golpeada por los horrores de la guerra. Hoy esta lectura rinde homenaje, hace historia y a su vez memoria con tantos y tantos sueños rotos para siempre y que han dormido el paso del tiempo durante los últimos ochenta años esperando a que llegase este momento: el de conocer, recordar, valorar y divulgar nuestro pasado más cercano a las siguientes generaciones para que acontecimientos como estos jamás vuelvan a repetirse.

Download or read book The Cultural Politics of Twentieth century Spanish Theatre written by Carey Kasten and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cultural Politics of Twentieth-Century Spanish Theater argues that twentieth-century artists used the Golden Age Eucharist plays called autos sacramentales to reassess the way politics and the arts interact in the Spanish nation's past and present, and to posit new ideas for future relations between the state and the national culture industry. The book traces the phenomenon of the twentieth-century auto to show how theater practitioners revisited this national genre to manifest different, oftentimes opposing, ideological and aesthetic agendas. It follows the auto from the avant-garde stagings and rewritings of the form in the early twentieth century, to the Francoist productions by the Teatro Nacional de la Falange, to postmodern parodies of the form in the era following Franco's death to demonstrate how twentieth-century Spanish dramatists use the auto in their reassessment of the nation's political and artistic past, and as a way of envisioning its future.

Download or read book Here Lies Lalo written by Abelardo "Lalo" Delgado and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 2011-04-30 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Stupid America, remember that chicanito / flunking math and English / he is the Picasso / of your western states / but he will die / with one thousand masterpieces / hanging only from his mind." In his poem, "Stupid America," Chicano activist poet Abelardo "Lalo" Delgado decries the lack of opportunity faced by his people: children let down by the educational system; artists and poets unable to express their creativity. "That chicano / with a big knife / he doesn't want to knife you / he wants to sit down on a bench / and carve … / but you won't let him." Known as the "poet laureate de Aztlán" and called "the grandfather of Chicano literature" in his 2004 obituary in The New York Times, Delgado used his words to fight for justice and equal opportunity for people of Mexican descent living in the United States. A twelve-year-old when he emigrated from northern Mexico to El Paso, Texas, Delgado's development as a poet and writer coincided with the Chicano Civil Rights movement, and so his poems both reflect the suffering of the oppressed and are a call to action. "We want to let america know that she / belongs to us as much as we belong in turn to her / by now we have learned to talk / and want to be in good speaking terms / with all that is america." Available for the first time to mainstream audiences, Delgado's poems included in this landmark volume were written between 1969 and 2001, and are in Spanish, English, and a combination of both languages. While many of his poems protest mistreatment and discrimination, especially as experienced by farm workers, many others focus on love of family and for the land and traditions of his people. Delgado wrote and self-published 14 books of poetry—none of which are available today—and five of them are included in this long-awaited volume. These poems by a pioneering Chicano poet and revolutionary are a must-read for anyone interested in the Chicano Civil Rights movement and the origins of Chicano literature.

Download or read book The Desertmakers written by Javier Uriarte and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies how the rhetoric of travel introduces different conceptualizations of space and time in scenarios of war during the last decades of the 19th century, in Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay. By examining accounts of war and travel in the context of the consolidation of state apparatuses in these countries, Uriarte underlines the essential role that war (in connection to empire and capital) has played in the Latin American process of modernization and state formation. In this book, the analysis of British and Latin American travel narratives proves particularly productive in reading the ways in which national spaces are reconfigured, reimagined, and reappropriated by the state apparatus. War turns out to be a central instrument not just for making possible this logic of appropriation, but also for bringing temporal notions such as modernization and progress to spaces that were described — albeit problematically — as being outside of history. The book argues that wars waged against "deserts" (as Patagonia, the sertão, Paraguay, and the Uruguayan countryside were described and imagined) were in fact means of generating empty spaces, real voids that were the condition for new foundations. The study of travel writing is an essential tool for understanding the transformations of space brought by war, and for analyzing in detail the forms and connotations of movement in connection to violence. Uriarte pays particular attention to the effects that witnessing war had on the traveler’s identity and on the relation that is established with the oikos or point of departure of their own voyage. Written at the intersection of literary analysis, critical geography, political science, and history, this book will be of interest to those studying Latin American literature, Travel Writing, and neocolonialism and Empire writing.
