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 2014-05-06 with total page 305 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 Three contains plays by six Mexican indigenous writers. Their plays appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Montemayor and Frischmann have abundantly annotated the Spanish, English, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that introduce the work of each playwright and discuss the role of theater within indigenous communities. These supporting materials make the anthology especially accessible and interesting for nonspecialist readers seeking a greater understanding of Mexico's indigenous peoples.

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?
Download or read book Bend ceme Ultima written by Rudolfo Anaya and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-17 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Full of “sensual dreams [and] unexplained phenomena,” this "best-known and most-respected" coming-of-age classic from the godfather of Chicano literature follows a young boy growing up in the llano, or plains, of post-World War II New Mexico, and the generous curandera who introduces him to the sacred side of life (New York Times). A PBS Great American Read · Winner of the Premio Quinto Sol Award · Recipient of the National Humanities Medal · With a new Foreword by author, playwright, and stage director Denise Chavez; a new Afterword by award-winning journalist and author Carmela Padilla; and a new essay by Manuel Muñoz, a Macarthur Fellow and winner of the Joyce Carol Oates Prize. “I pulled this baby into the light of life . . . Only I will know his destiny.” Antonio Marez is six years old when the woman who helped usher him into the world comes to stay with his family in New Mexico. Venerated by some as a miracle-worker—and disparaged by others as a bruja—Ultima, a curandera, or healer, opens Tony’s eyes to the spiritual roots of his culture, and introduces him to a magical, if sometimes frightening, new world: a realm in which she operates as a shaman. Suddenly, the ordinary challenges and triumphs of childhood become extraordinary. As Ultima shows Tony how to cure ailments, reverse curses, and restore peace to those who have lost it, he embarks on a singular quest, one in which he probes the family ties that bind and rend him, questions the Catholicism that shaped him, and explores the Spanish, Mexican, and Native American influences that informed not only his heritage, but his very sense of self. And at each life turn there is Ultima, who was there the day he was born . . . and will nurture the birth of his soul. A rich and wondrous story that reveals universal truths about the human condition and celebrates the beauty of Chicano culture. Includes a Reading Group Guide.

Book excerpt: Quien que conozca el amor y el desprecio a la misma vez, no sabe el dolor que provocan. Bueno si sabe lo que hablo sabrá lo que dicen mis palabras, quizás lo sienta como suyas, también muchas de mis palabras son dulces gotas, o gotas amargas de llanto; porque esa simple palabra "amor" echa de cuatro letras puede hacerme elevar hasta la luna tan solo impulsada por el amor. Sé que él no vendrá porque se lo ha llevado el desprecio, y sus recuerdos no se abran borrados como un corazón dibujado en la arena. La vida de RAUL se apaga cuando SARAH le abandona y empieza una lucha constante entre el amor y el olvido, y la soledad que le da miedo. Pero la vida le premia devolviéndole a su única hija pérdida, Raul quiso ayudar a su hija a quebrantar la coraza de su alma herida y empieza a inculcarle los mejores sentimientos, pero la vida fue demasiado corta.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Como en un principio, los fantasmas interiores volvieron y lo hicieron con más fuerza que antes, provocando en mí el odio y el rencor más grande que haya sentido nunca hacia una persona; estoy seguro también que este asunto terminará con la muerte. Resulta curioso, porque aunque en algunos momentos siento que a ese hombre que me ordenan asesinar lo conozco profundamente y me he enfrentado a él, hay otros en que mi mente es bloqueada e ignoro cómo es él en realidad. Aunque ahora sepa de quién se trata, también sé, sin la menor duda, que al encontrarle en mi camino voy a hacerle mucho daño. Así lo mandan las fuerzas internas que habitan en mí y así se hará, repito, no me cabe la menor duda.
