This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LA FILOSOFÍA EXISTENCIALISTA "Uno de los pensamientos que en este momento está conmoviendo al mundo civilizado es la de la Filosofía Existencialista. No es una simple especulación de la inteligencia, ni tampoco una lucubración de aula o de gabinete solamente; tiene su raigambre en la vida social, en el momento histórico. Ciertamente, la historia la está forjando y los pensadores que la formulan, principalmente de Europa, ven en ella una solución al desaliento que está destrozando las almas después de las guerras catastróficas que han deshecho tantas obras de belleza y anulado tantas vidas." Adalberto García de Mendoza (1948)

Download or read book Transvestism Masculinity and Latin American Literature written by B. Sifuentes-Jáuregui and published by Springer. This book was released on 2002-02-22 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about transvestism and the performance of gender in Latin American literature and culture. Ben. Sifuentes-Jáuregui explores the figure of the transvestite and his/her relation to the body through a series of canonical Latin American texts. By analyzing works by Alejo Carpentier, José Donoso, Severo Sarduy and Manuel Puig (author of Kiss of the Spiderwoma n), alongside critical works in gender studies and queer theory, Sifuentes-Jáuregui shows how transvestism operates not only to destabilize, but often to affirm sexual, gender, national and political identities.
Download or read book The Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri written by Robert M. Durling and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-10-07 with total page 886 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Durling's spirited new prose translation of the Paradiso completes his masterful rendering of the Divine Comedy. Durling's earlier translations of the Inferno and the Purgatorio garnered high praise, and with this superb version of the Paradiso readers can now traverse the entirety of Dante's epic poem of spiritual ascent with the guidance of one of the greatest living Italian-to-English translators. Reunited with his beloved Beatrice in the Purgatorio, in the Paradiso the poet-narrator journeys with her through the heavenly spheres and comes to know "the state of blessed souls after death." As with the previous volumes, the original Italian and its English translation appear on facing pages. Readers will be drawn to Durling's precise and vivid prose, which captures Dante's extraordinary range of expression--from the high style of divine revelation to colloquial speech, lyrical interludes, and scornful diatribes against corrupt clergy. This edition boasts several unique features. Durling's introduction explores the chief interpretive issues surrounding the Paradiso, including the nature of its allegories, the status in the poem of Dante's human body, and his relation to the mystical tradition. The notes at the end of each canto provide detailed commentary on historical, theological, and literary allusions, and unravel the obscurity and difficulties of Dante's ambitious style . An unusual feature is the inclusion of the text, translation, and commentary on one of Dante's chief models, the famous cosmological poem by Boethius that ends the third book of his Consolation of Philosophy. A substantial section of Additional Notes discusses myths, symbols, and themes that figure in all three cantiche of Dante's masterpiece. Finally, the volume includes a set of indexes that is unique in American editions, including Proper Names Discussed in the Notes (with thorough subheadings concerning related themes), Passages Cited in the Notes, and Words Discussed in the Notes, as well as an Index of Proper Names in the text and translation. Like the previous volumes, this final volume includes a rich series of illustrations by Robert Turner.
Download or read book S pero no La poes a de B cquer written by Giannina Braschi and published by Costa-Amic Editores. This book was released on 2022-05-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las rimas de Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, así como su obra en prosa, ponen de relieve la polaridad, la contradicción, el continuo vaivén de la esperanza y la desilusión. La estructura de sus poemas responde, en la medida de su lógica interna (sí/pero no), a la misma ley de contradicción que existe en los estratos profundos del espíritu. El problema de la vida y el amor se plantea y se une con su visión del mundo. La vida, o la experiencia, puede ser bella o fea, buena o mala. Toda experiencia abre una última dualidad insuperable, que desgarra la unidad de la existencia. En su coyuntura interna, lo uno anula lo otro; un mismo objeto o sentimiento puede ser motivo de entusiasta afirmación y al mismo tiempo de apasionada negación. Su poesía es delirio alegre o reconcentrado dolor; el ritmo psicológico oscila entre impulsos contrarios. La acumulación de las antítesis profundiza los estados internos. El alma se debate entre opuestos: la razón y la pasión; la alegría y el dolor; la esperanza y la desesperanza.

Book excerpt: Literary Nonfiction. Poetry. Latinx Studies. LGBTQIA Studies. Edited by Ricardo F. Vivancos-Pèrez and Norma Cantú. Rooted in Gloria Anzaldúa's experiences growing up near the U.S./Mexico border, BORDERLANDS/LA FRONTERA remaps our understanding of borders as psychic, social, and cultural terrains that we inhabit and that inhabit us all. Drawing heavily on archival research and a comprehensive literature review while contextualizing the book within her theories and writings before and after its 1987 publication, this critical edition elucidates Anzaldúa's complex composition process and its centrality in the development of her philosophy. It opens with two introductory studies; offers a corrected text, explanatory footnotes, translations, and four archival appendices; and closes with an updated bibliography of Anzaldúa's works, an extensive scholarly bibliography on Borderlands, a brief biography, and a short discussion of the Gloria E. Anzaldúa Papers. "Ricardo F. Vivancos-Pèrez's meticulous archival work and Norma Elia Cantú's life experience and expertise converge to offer a stunning resource for Anzaldúa scholars; for writers, artists, and activists inspired by her work; and for everyone. Hereafter, no study of Borderlands will be complete without this beautiful, essential reference."--Paola Bacchetta

Download or read book Luz sobre la piedra written by Manuel García Verdecia and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-07-11 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los poemas de Manuel García Verdecia son esas piedras pulidas que iluminan como fogatas, con fervor, con magia, nuestra orfandad y nuestra necesidad; para decirlo en sus palabras, nuestra "tozuda insistencia". La luz sobre la piedra nos ejemplifica nuestro pequeño paso por esta tierra cruel y venturosa, llena de maravillas pero también de imprecisión, de precariedad. Manuel García Verdecia, este Odiseo contemporáneo, nos recuerda que el poema es, ante todo, experiencia humana hecha lenguaje.
