This book was released on 2020-09-09 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Serías capaz de guardar un secreto? ¿Qué harías si te dijera que la realidad que ves no es más que una simulación creada por seres superiores? ¿Qué si te explicara que ni siquiera existe «la realidad», sino un conjunto de ellas que se entrecruzan y superponen entre sí? Este es el trasfondo de El lugar donde los equilibristas descansan, de Frank Hidalgo-Gato Durán, quien nos regala una trepidante aventura que atraviesa universos, épocas y los cuerpos de un puñado de personajes inolvidables. Björn, Kim, Joshua y Roxanne, entre otros, serán sometidos por los arcontes a duras pruebas físicas y psicológicas en su formación como equilibristas de realidades. A partir de sus propias voces nos convertiremos en testigos de futuras y cruentas guerras contra especies alienígenas, de mundos estremecedoramente cercanos y regidos por el ciberespacio y la virtualidad o de la inevitable caída de sistemas globales carcomidos por el abuso de poder. En estos devastadores escenarios lo único que parecería mantener unidas las piezas es la incansable búsqueda del amor y a ellos mismos dentro de la infinidad de realidades que existen.

Book excerpt: Swept up in political intrigue, an assassin and a princess embrace a passionate love in this fourteenth-century romance by a New York Times–bestselling author. As the last unmarried princess of Monteverde, Elayne is trapped in a marital bond when her hand is promised to the land’s ruler. On the voyage to meet her future husband, she is captured by Allegreto Navona—the living embodiment of the dark angel she’s seen in dreams. Endowed with godlike beauty, his eyes burn bright with sin. A woman of modesty would flee such a man. But try as she might, a wanton hunger binds her to his side . . . Trained as an assassin, Allegreto is the bastard son of an ambitious lord who raised him to murder for control of Monteverde. Now that his father is dead, if Allegreto can make Elayne his wife, it will cleanse his tainted blood, and the country will be his, but she is no mere maiden to be possessed. Unexpectedly, he falls in love with her, finding in her quick mind and azure eyes the conqueror of his heart. But will his dark past scare her off? With a legendary ability to create lovers you’ll never forget, the author of Flowers from the Storm offers a lively historical romance.

Book excerpt: En el año 2010, antes de cumplir cincuenta años, me impuse algunos compromisos personales. Uno de ellos fue el de recorrer el Camino Francés, que es uno de los caminos de peregrinación que conducen a Santiago de Compostela en España. Me acompañó en la aventura mi cuñada. En el Camino conocimos a personas excepcionales, pasamos por lugares increíblemente bellos y tuvimos la suerte de contemplar paisajes maravillosos, aparte de disfrutar de las experiencias más fascinantes de nuestra vida. Antes de empezar nos advirtieron que podrían sucedernos varias cosas: que el Camino en cualquier caso nos cambiaría, y que, o bien éste pasaría a ser parte de nosotros, o bien que nosotros pasaríamos a formar parte de él para siempre. La realidad es que, efectivamente, la experiencia del Camino ha cambiado nuestra vida llegando a instalarse en lo más profundo de nuestra alma. La Magia del Camino es la historia de lo que nos aconteció a lo largo del Camino de Santiago.
Download or read book Don Quixote and Catholicism written by Michael McGrath and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-15 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four hundred years since its publication, Miguel de Cervantes’s Don Quixote continues to inspire and to challenge its readers. The universal and timeless appeal of the novel, however, has distanced its hero from its author and its author from his own life and the time in which he lived. The discussion of the novel’s Catholic identity, therefore, is based on a reading that returns Cervantes’s hero to Cervantes’s text and Cervantes to the events that most shaped his life. The authors and texts McGrath cites, as well as his arguments and interpretations, are mediated by his religious sensibility. Consequently, he proposes that his study represents one way of interpreting Don Quixote and acts as a complement to other approaches. It is McGrath’s assertion that the religiosity and spirituality of Cervantes’s masterpiece illustrate that Don Quixote is inseparable from the teachings of Catholic orthodoxy. Furthermore, he argues that Cervantes’s spirituality is as diverse as early modern Catholicism. McGrath does not believe that the novel is primarily a religious or even a serious text, and he considers his arguments through the lens of Cervantine irony, satire, and multiperspectivism. As a Roman Catholic who is a Hispanist, McGrath proposes to reclaim Cervantes’s Catholicity from the interpretive tradition that ascribes a predominantly Erasmian reading of the novel. When the totality of biographical and sociohistorical events and influences that shaped Cervantes’s religiosity are considered, the result is a new appreciation of the novel’s moral didactic and spiritual orientation.

Download or read book Pre Columbian Foodways written by John Staller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-11-24 with total page 691 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The significance of food and feasting to Pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures has been extensively studied by archaeologists, anthropologists and art historians. Foodways studies have been critical to our understanding of early agriculture, political economies, and the domestication and management of plants and animals. Scholars from diverse fields have explored the symbolic complexity of food and its preparation, as well as the social importance of feasting in contemporary and historical societies. This book unites these disciplinary perspectives — from the social and biological sciences to art history and epigraphy — creating a work comprehensive in scope, which reveals our increasing understanding of the various roles of foods and cuisines in Mesoamerican cultures. The volume is organized thematically into three sections. Part 1 gives an overview of food and feasting practices as well as ancient economies in Mesoamerica. Part 2 details ethnographic, epigraphic and isotopic evidence of these practices. Finally, Part 3 presents the metaphoric value of food in Mesoamerican symbolism, ritual, and mythology. The resulting volume provides a thorough, interdisciplinary resource for understanding, food, feasting, and cultural practices in Mesoamerica.
