Book excerpt: Inmerso en los intricados laberintos de la moral humana, la ética, la justicia, el conocimiento científico y el uso de los mismos con propósitos ulteriores, el autor nos adentra en un mundo cuasi mágico en el que nuestros sentidos nos dictarán el desenlace del crimen cometido. Cada lector tendrá la oportunidad de sentir a flor de piel cada instancia de los acontecimientos en la vida de los personajes que el autor retrata con sus letras. Un grupo de jóvenes estudiantes adolescentes cuyos talentos se combinan, creando un círculo de hermandad y un código secreto el cual unirá sus vidas y cambiará el curso de éstos para siempre. Ese hermetismo y complicidad, con el tiempo logra transformar ese código en el instrumento y causal de un crudo y escalofriante crimen. Sigfredo Soto nos plantea la distorsión que pueden sufrir nuestras estructuras sociales, morales, éticas, religiosas y de justicia cuando son arropadas por el deseo de poder, venganza y ambición. ¿Lograrán la justicia y el bien prevalecer?

Book The Shade of the Saguaro   La sombra del saguaro  Essays on the Literary Cultures of the American Southwest   Ensayos sobre las culturas literarias del suroeste norteamericano

Download or read book The Shade of the Saguaro La sombra del saguaro Essays on the Literary Cultures of the American Southwest Ensayos sobre las culturas literarias del suroeste norteamericano written by Annamaria Pinazzi and published by Firenze University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume springs from that fruitful project of scientific cooperation between the humanities departments of Università di Firenze and University of Arizona which was the Forum for the Study of the Literary Cultures of the Southwest (2000-2007). Tri-cultural, at least (Native, Hispanic and Anglo-American), and multi-lingual, today's Southwest presents a complex coexistence of different cultures, the equal of which would be hard to find elsewhere in the United States. Of this virtually inexhaustible object of study, the essays here collected tackle an ample range of themes. While the majority of them are concerned with the literatures of the Southwest, still a good third falls into the fields of history, art history, ethnography, sociology or cultural studies. They are partitioned in four sections, the first three reflecting the chronology of the stratification of the three major cultures and the fourth highlighting one of the most sensitive topics in and about contemporary Southwest - the borderlands/la frontera

Book Adapting Gender

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ilana Dann Luna
  • Publisher : SUNY Press
  • Release : 2018-01-01
  • ISBN : 143846827X
  • Pages : 314 pages

Download or read book Adapting Gender written by Ilana Dann Luna and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demonstrates how film adaptations intersect with feminist discourse in neoliberal Mexico. Adapting Gender offers a cogent introduction to Mexico’s film industry, the history of women’s filmmaking in Mexico, a new approach to adaptation as a potential feminist strategy, and a cultural history of generational changes in Mexico.Ilana Dann Luna examines how adapted films have the potential to subvert not only the intentions of the source text, but how they can also interrupt the hegemony of gender stereotypes in a broader socio-political context. Luna follows the industrial shifts that began with Salinas de Gortari’s presidency, which made the long 1990s the precise moment in which subversive filmmakers, particularly women, were able to participate more fully in the industry and portrayed the lived experiences of women and non-gender-conforming men. The analysis focuses on Busi Cortés’s El secreto de Romelia (1988), an adaptation of Rosario Castellanos’s short novel El viudo Román (1964); Sabina Berman and Isabelle Tardán’s Entre Pancho Villa y una mujer desnuda (1996), an adaptation of Berman’s own play, Entre Villa y una mujer desnuda (1992); Guita Schyfter’s Novia que te vea (1993), an adaptation of Rosa Nissán’s eponymous novel (1992); and Jaime Humberto Hermosillo’s De noche vienes, Esmeralda (1997), an adaptation of Elena Poniatowska’s short story “De noche vienes” (1979). These adapted texts established a significant alternative to monolithic notions of national (gendered) identity, while critiquing, updating, and even queering, notions of feminism in the Mexican context. “Adapting Gender demonstrates Luna’s considerable skills as a scholar. She deftly carries out a careful analysis of the literary and cinematic texts, putting them in the context of the evolving publishing and film industries. Written in a lively and engaging style, this is a unique synthesis of the evolution of feminism and the roles women have had—indeed, at times, been limited to—in Mexico and what this has meant for their creative output.” — Niamh Thornton, author of Revolution and Rebellion in Mexican Film

Book Empty Stone   Piedra vac   a

    Book Details:
  • Author : Felipe Garc’a Garc’a Quintero
  • Publisher : Lulu.com
  • Release : 2017-12-02
  • ISBN : 1387413910
  • Pages : 134 pages

Download or read book Empty Stone Piedra vac a written by Felipe Garc’a Garc’a Quintero and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Subtraction is the word that designates the writing operation that Felipe García Quintero practices in Empty Stone. The operation is difficult because it is performed on the heart of the contemporary poetic problem. It would seem impossible to dive into the difficulty of the action without falling into the melodrama: is there any awareness of what is at stake when one assumes to reflect on writing and poetic language, without any hint of fear, in front of everything that has been said on the subject? Impossibility seemed cold before reading Empty Stone. Now I know its temperature, its warm condition, its simple act of being in favor, not knowing exactly of what. True uncertainty, the very one, inhabits this Empty Stone. Eduardo Milán Restar es la palabra que designa la operación de escritura que emplea Felipe García Quintero en Piedra vacía. La operación es difícil porque se realiza sobre el corazón del problema poético contemporáneo.

Book El Cuerpo un Espacio Pedag  Gico

Download or read book El Cuerpo un Espacio Pedag Gico written by Norma Delia Dur N. Amavizca and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los sistemas pedagógicos continúan en crisis. Una crisis humana que amenaza con nunca acabar. En esta obra, se argumenta, que una de las razones principales de las crisis educativas se debe a que los procesos pedagógicos han centrado la atención en el desarrollo cognoscitivo, principalmente, y han dejado de lado al cuerpo y sus emociones. La pedagogía de lo corporal propuesta por el Dr. Sergio López Ramos, muestra un camino esperanzador y encausa a la educación al aprendizaje por medio del cuerpo, concibiéndolo como un espacio en donde el individuo tiene posibilidades de construir nuevas formas de vivir en armonía consigo mismo y con los otros. Para que el ser humano alcance una mejor calidad de vida en esta época global y postmoderna. La autora incursiona en la pedagogía de lo corporal del Dr. López Ramos con la metodología de historia de las ideas y logra exponer la propuesta de abrigar una nueva epistemología del cuerpo y las emociones en los procesos educativos.

Los espacios D, E y F, con un enfoque más formal, muestran una selección de obras relacionadas con la poesía experimental. En la primera de ellas, el espectador puede contemplar una selección de 50 poemas experimentales en una edición digital especialmente desarrollada para esta exposición. A través de las pantallas puede accederse a destacados ejemplos de poesía visual, poemas sonoros y poesía textual. En el espacio E se muestran ejemplares de poesía sonora, de poemas-objeto y libros-objeto y de poesía-acción. En la estancia F se muestran obras de autores españoles y no españoles cuya relevancia viene dada por su participación en exposiciones internacionales de poesía experimental. La exposición se completa con una biblioteca y una sala de cine, en la que se pueden visionar algunas películas de aquellos años, caracterizadas por la abstracción y las transgresiones estéticas defendidas también desde la poesía. Entre ellas se encuentra Pêche de nuit, realizado en 1963 por varios autores, entre otros Henri Chopin, creador de la poesía sonora fallecido el pasado año. También pueden verse dos películas de Javier Aguirre dedicadas a Julio Campal y Jorge Oteiza. La biblioteca pretende ayudar al visitante a conocer algunas publicaciones de poesía experimental, y permitir a los expertos profundizar en los aspectos teóricos y prácticos del género.
