Download or read book Franco s Famine written by Miguel Ángel del Arco Blanco and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At least 200,000 people died from hunger or malnutrition-related diseases in Spain during the 1940s. This book provides a political explanation for the famine and brings together a broad range of academics based in Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia to achieve this. Topics include the political causes of the famine, the physical and social consequences, the ways Spaniards tried to survive, the regime's reluctance to accept international relief, the politics of cooking at a time of famine, and the memory of the famine. The volume challenges the silence and misrepresentation that still surround the famine. It reveals the reality of how people perished in Spain because the Francoist authorities instituted a policy of food self-sufficiency (or autarky): a system of price regulation which placed restrictions on transport as well as food sales. The contributors trace the massive decline in food production which followed, the hoarding which took place on an enormous scale and the vast and deeply iniquitous black market that subsequently flourished at a time when salaries plunged to 50% below their levels in 1936: all contributing factors in the large-scale atrocity explored fully here for the first time.

Book excerpt: Este volumen recoge una serie de trabajos que tienen como común denominador el vínculo existente entre la escritura y la comunicación. Si bien cada trabajo aborda una problemática diferente y, en algunos casos, desde diversas perspectivas y modelos teóricos, en todos subyace el concepto del lenguaje como fenómeno social que constituye el gran sistema de comunicación humana. Sistema que nace en una situación social y que, como señala José Antonio Marina en su obra La Selva del Lenguaje, en una fantástica espiral ascendente hace posibles nuevos modos de sociabilidad.

This book was released on 2014-02-03 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E TEATRO, CUENTOS Y ESCENAS sta presentación que reproducimos en esta segunda edición en español, corresponde a la primera edición de la publicación de la Universidad Autónoma de Santo domingo durante el decanato del Dr. Luciano Castillo en la Facultad de Humanidades, quien se refi rió al autor en los siguientes términos: Mariano Morillo publicó hace poco tiempo un ensayo sobre el teatro universal. Ahora se atreve a incursionar en la temática de los cuentos y las obras teatrales y publicarlos. Hemos utilizados el verbo “atreverse”, adrede, porque el joven Mariano Morillo se ha determinado a hacer algo difícil y arriesgado al penetrar en géneros literarios tan delicados. Es raro en nuestros días, encontrar un joven que se dedique a menesteres socioculturales que parecen no interesarles a la juventud contemporánea, y que cuando se dedica a incursionar en los aspectos literarios en nuestro medio, se inclina por lo mas fácil de tratar.
