Download or read book Le n Ferrari written by León Ferrari and published by Editorial Rm. This book was released on 2008 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As poetic as he is controversial, the renowned Argentinean Conceptualist León Ferrari (who was forced to live in exile in Brazil from 1976 to 1991, and who won a Golden Lion award at the 52nd Venice Biennale in 2007) is known for his fierce criticism of power and religion--both as an artist and as a journalist. This first major retrospective monograph brings together a selection of heliographs, drawings and collages which fiercely criticize Argentinean dictatorship, conservative religion and American authority--among many other heavily loaded subjects. It also features a selection of recent works, produced between 2004 and 2008, which include his well-known polyurethane sculptures. Throughout, Ferrari's work shuns quiet, undisturbed or serene contemplation, instead loudly joining denouncement with beauty, bliss with anguish, joy with fury. With scholarly essays by distinguished experts, an in-depth interview and a selection of texts by Ferrari himself.

This book was released on 2006-06-30 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro aborda diversas problemáticas que plantea la enseñanza de la lengua desde una perspectiva social y cultural. Las escenas de clase en las que se trabajaron distintos contenidos del área, los relatos de prácticas docentes en las que se utilizaron variados libros de texto, las producciones escritas de alumnos de diferentes escuelas públicas y privadas, las transcripciones de las voces de docentes y alumnos y el recorrido por múltiples consignas sobre temas propuestos en los diseños curriculares constituyen el material de análisis de esta obra. Con estos materiales, el libro busca distanciarse de aquellas ideas que suponen que las teorías sobre el lenguaje, por sí solas, pueden dar cuenta de los complejos procesos que se juegan en el leer, el escribir o el hablar en el aula. Más aun, de aquellas ideas que imaginan que las teorías pueden “aplicarse” sin mediaciones, olvidando la diversidad de prácticas y actores que la escuela manifiesta. Las experiencias de aula concretas que aquí se presentan ofrecen la posibilidad de reconocer y volver a pensar los conflictos y las incertidumbres que atraviesan las prácticas de enseñanza para, en función de los problemas, proponer otros modos de intervención y de trabajo en el área de Lengua.

Download or read book Words of the True Peoples Palabras de los Seres Verdaderos written by Carlos Montemayor and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the larger, ongoing movement throughout Latin America to reclaim non-Hispanic cultural heritages and identities, indigenous writers in Mexico are reappropriating the written word in their ancestral tongues and in Spanish. As a result, the long-marginalized, innermost feelings, needs, and worldviews of Mexico's ten to twenty million indigenous peoples are now being widely revealed to the Western societies with which these peoples coexist. To contribute to this process and serve as a bridge of intercultural communication and understanding, this groundbreaking, three-volume anthology gathers works by the leading generation of writers in thirteen Mexican indigenous languages: Nahuatl, Maya, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Tojolabal, Tabasco Chontal, Purepecha, Sierra Zapoteco, Isthmus Zapoteco, Mazateco, Ñahñu, Totonaco, and Huichol. Volume 1 contains narratives and essays by Mexican indigenous writers. Their texts appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Frischmann and Montemayor have abundantly annotated the English, Spanish, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that trace the development of indigenous texts, literacy, and writing. These supporting materials make the anthology especially accessible and interesting for nonspecialist readers seeking a greater understanding of Mexico's indigenous peoples. The other volumes of this work will be Volume 2: Poetry/Poesía and Volume 3: Theater/Teatro.

Download or read book Jewish Imaginaries of the Spanish Civil War written by Cynthia Gabbay and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2022-09-08 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jewish Imaginaries of the Spanish Civil War inaugurates a new field of research in literary and Jewish studies at the intersection of Jewish history and the internationalist cultural phenomenon emerging from the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939), the Republican exile, and the Shoah. With the Spanish Civil War as a point of departure, this volume proposes a definition of Jewish textualities based on the entanglement of multiple poetic modes. Through the examination of a variety of narrative fiction and non-fiction, memoir, poetry, epistles, journalism, and music in Yiddish, Spanish, French, German, and English, these essays unveil non-canonic authors across the West and explore these works in the context of antisemitism, orientalism, and philo-Sephardism, among other cultural phenomena. Jewish writings from the war have much to tell about the encounter between old traditions and new experimentations, framed by urgency, migration, and messianic hope. They offer perspectives on memorial and post-memorial literatures triggered by transhistorical imagination, and many were written against the grain of canonic literature, where subtle forms of dissidence, manifested through language, structure, sound, and thought, sought to tune with the anti-fascist fight. This book revindicates the polyglossia of Jewish cultures and literatures in the context of genocide and epistemicide and proposes to remember the cultural phenomena produced by the Spanish Civil War, demanding a new understanding of the cosmopolitan imaginaries in Jewish literature.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las contribuciones a este libro se centran en las estrategias y los metodos linguisticos interculturales usados por los misioneros coloniales de la America Latina. Su objetivo principal fue una traduccion eficiente de los conceptos cristianos a textos amerindios y sus contextos indigenas para que sus destinatarios nativos lograran una mejor comprension de la nueva religion y abandonaran la suya. Para esto, los misioneros linguistas aprendieron las lenguas autoctonas y el resultado fue la creacion de obras linguisticas (diccionarios y gramaticas) asi como tambien textos para la instruccion religiosa cristiana (doctrinas, sermones etc.). Asimismo tomaron en cuenta teorias de lexicografia y traduccion, y tambien recurrieron a generos textuales nativos y europeos. Los aportes aqui reunidos constituyen una mirada comparativa a traves de Latinoamerica dentro de un marco amplio de disciplinas (como son la historia, la sociolinguistica, la antropologia etc.), estudiando las lenguas nahuatl, tarasco, maya, quechua, tupi, guarani y chiquitano. Al analizar los diferentes acercamientos a la traduccion, los autores llegan a resultados matizados en cuanto a los metodos misioneros, como eran prestamos y traducciones palabra- por-palabra, pero sobre todo la (re-)creacion de nuevos terminos y expresiones en la lengua ajena, frecuentemente basados en lo que se suponia que eran conceptos semanticos y gramaticales nativos. Aparte de una aparente confusion de los indigenas, en los articulos se observa la integracion del cristianismo en las culturas nativas, en la mayoria de los casos en la forma de una 'nativizacion' de la religion europea.

Book excerpt: Today, the world offers us more options than ever before, but it also forces us to juggle more priorities, to make more choices, and to make them faster. The result: a crisis of doing too much, or not enough, and making our decisions based on impulse, stress or guilt. In 10-10-10Suzy Welch offers an exciting, effective strategy that will help you make the right decision in any situation, at work or at home; with colleagues, family or friends. The rule is deceptively simple: when faced with a decision, consider what the consequences and outcomes of your various options would be in 10 minutes, 10 months, and 10 years. But the results are extraordinary. Using the framework of 10-10-10will allow you to think through your decisions and to match them with the expectations and values you hold dearest. Most importantly, it allows you to chart a path in the direction you want, and to head confidently towards it with focus, balance, and joy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los Verdaderos Angeles es un trabajo literario de investigación hecha novela pues mezcla los atributos de realidad y fantasía para explicar los hechos misteriosos que respectan a las criaturas divinas descritas en la biblia. Se trata de una increíble obra que explica de forma contundente la verdad sobre los Angeles y Demonios que, mediante evidencias sustentadas en la biblia, demuestra que dichas criaturas son los seres extraterrestres que nos visitan actualmente. De acuerdo a los análisis razonables que hizo el autor, y que con la ayuda de los testimonios de personas reales que deciden mantenerse en el anonimato dan fe de que los alienígenas son los Angeles y que incluso nuestro Dios tiene precisamente la misma característica. La biblia ha sido leída desde la perspectiva científica y por primera vez en la historia se ha demostrado que los Demonios y los Angeles son entes que realmente existen aunque no de la forma como te la esperabas.

Download or read book A Series of Unfortunate Events 01 The Bad Beginning written by Lemony Snicket and published by Egmont Books (UK). This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is nothing to be found in the pages of A Series of Unfortunate Events but misery and despair. You still have time to choose another international best-seller to read. But if you must know what unpleasantries befall the charming and clever Baudelaire children read on . . . In The Bad Beginning the three youngsters encounter a greedy and repulsive villain, itchy clothing, a disastrous fire, a plot to steal their fortune and cold porridge for breakfast. Then again, why trouble yourself with the unfortunate resolutions? With 5 million copies sold in the UK alone, one might consider Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events to make him one of the most successful children’s authors of the past decade. We, however, consider these miserable so-called adventure stories and the Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey that accompanied the books for children as nothing more than a dreadful mistake.
