Book excerpt: La temporada taurina de 1908/1909 —que corrió del 4 de octubre de 1908 al 21 de marzo de 1909— despertó gran interés entre los aficionados al espectáculo, que deseaban confirmar en el ruedo lo que habían leído en la prensa acerca de Rodolfo Gaona, la nueva sensación que regresó de España. Acrecentó el interés de los taurófilos la competencia que surgió entre las plazas de toros “México” y “El Toreo”, que marcó la historia taurina de la capital de la república desde el 22 de septiembre de 1907 cuando esta última se inauguró. La rivalidad entre ambas plazas se manifestó en la nacionalidad de los toros y toreros que cada una de ellas seleccionaba para sus festejos: principalmente mexicanos, en la “México”, sobre todo españoles en “El Toreo”. De acuerdo con los autores de este libro, el desenlace de este antagonismo consistió en el derrumbe de la empresa de la plaza “México”, que sólo logró organizar 6 corridas durante la temporada, mientras que la plaza “El Toreo” arregló 21 festejos. Este resultado se explica por la escasez de recursos económicos de la empresa de la plaza “México”. En fin, la competencia entre las empresas de las plazas de toros y las expectativas que generó el regreso de Rodolfo Gaona al país azteca, contribuyeron al auge de las películas taurinas, en especial a partir de la temporada de 1909/1910. La fiesta de los toros era el espectáculo más popular en México y los empresarios cinematográficos no tardaron en percatarse de ello. Primero fueron exhibidores —como los hermanos Alva, Enrique Rosas, Salvador Toscano, José Pesquera Tuñón y José Cava— quienes comenzaron a filmar las corridas de toros, por lo menos las más importantes, y a ofrecerlas en venta o alquiler para su proyección en los cinematógrafos. Luego, éstos fueron imitados por la empresa de la plaza de toros “El Toreo”, que se dedicó a rodar cuanto festejo taurino le pareció relevante, y a ofrecerlo en venta o alquiler para su proyección en las salas de cine. De todo esto y de mucho más da cuenta el presente volumen de los Anales del cine en México, 1895-1911, que contiene tres valiosos apéndices: Archivos fílmicos taurinos de México; Corridas de toros filmadas de 1896 a 1906; y Corridas de toros filmadas de 1907 a 1915.

This book was released on 2019-10-28 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En 1908 se sucedieron tres acontecimientos destacados en México. El primero, de orden contextual, fue la entrevista Díaz-Creelman. El segundo consistió en la expedición del primer Reglamento de Cinematógrafos para el Distrito Federal. Y el tercero se cifró en la fundación de la Unión Cinematográfica, S.A. En efecto, en enero se celebró la entrevista Díaz-Creelman, que según consenso entre historiadores, fue el punto de partida de la búsqueda de una salida negociada —dentro del bloque en el poder— a la prolongada dictadura del “Héroe del 2 de Abril”. En otro orden de cosas, en junio de 1908 el Consejo Superior de Gobierno del Distrito Federal promulgó el Reglamento de Cinematógrafos, que constaba de 26 artículos y un transitorio. Elaborado a partir de un borrador que redactó el ingeniero Miguel Ángel de Quevedo, quien fungía como inspector de salas de espectáculos del Consejo Superior de Salubridad, éste fue el primer reglamento que se ocupó en exclusiva del cinematógrafo en nuestro país. Por último, a comienzos de 1908 se fundó la Unión Cinematográfica S.A., que se reorganizó el 2 de septiembre de ese año. La Unión quedó integrada inicialmente por Miguel Calápiz, presidente, Henrí Moulinié, gerente tesorero, y Pedro García, gerente secretario. El número de sus suscriptores en toda la república aumentó rápidamente, pues La Unión recibía las últimas novedades de Europa y proporcionaba diariamente veinticinco vistas diferentes a cada subscriptor para que pudiera cambiar, también a diario, el programa de sus funciones de cine. Se trataba de un claro intento de monopolizar la distribución de películas en todo México. El libro de Juan Felipe Leal 1908: Segunda parte. La “Unión Cinematográfica”, S.A., evidencia que en este año el cine mexicano emprendió una evolución semejante a la que tuvo lugar alrededor de 1906 en Europa y Estados Unidos, tendiente a conformar organizaciones cada vez más grandes y articulaciones cada vez más complejas entre la producción, la distribución y la exhibición.

This book was released on 2018-06-20 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Como resultado de un minucioso trabajo de investigación documental en las revistas y los diarios de la época, en este volumen Juan Felipe Leal y Eduardo Barraza dan cuenta exhaustiva de la producción y la exhibición de cine en la Ciudad de México en el año 1907. En medio de una oferta de diversiones públicas que comprendía el automovilismo, la equitación, la charrería, las peleas de gallos, las corridas de toros, las carreras de caballos y la aviación, la producción cinematográfica de ese año estuvo formada por actualidades, noticias filmadas, reportajes y algunas películas ficcionales. El presente libro ofrece testimonios fehacientes y abundantes de ello, valiéndose de programas de mano, notas de prensa y crónicas urbanas, ilustrados con numerosos fotogramas de las películas que se exhibieron en esa fecha, así como de carteles, dibujos, anuncios y fotografías de época. En 1907 las cuatro compañías productoras de películas más importantes de la Ciudad de México rodaron 52 cintas, que se exhibieron en las más de 50 salas de cine que había en la capital del país. Los aparatos de cinematógrafo y los kinetoscopios de proyección estaban a la venta del público, así como los fonógrafos (con cilindros de cera) y los gramófonos (con discos). En algunas salas de cine se contaba con el novedoso cronomegáfono, cuyo sonido se sincronizaba con las imágenes de movimiento, o bien, con el popular orquestrión mecánico de 300 voces, adornado con maniquíes y luces de colores que amenizaban los intermedios. Esta obra pasa revista a los teatros que exhibían ocasionalmente vistas de cinematógrafo (como el Apolo, el Arbeu, el Hidalgo, el Lelo de Larrea, el Orrin, el Guillermo Prieto, el Principal, y el del Renacimiento), a los locales de cine que mostraban cierta permanencia en el tiempo (como la Academia Metropolitana, el Salón Rojo, y el Teatro Riva Palacio), y a aquellos otros de vida efímera (como el Azul, el de la calle de Don Toribio, el Spectatorium, El Dorado, el Ruviar, y el Molino Blanco). De todos ellos se proporcionan numerosos datos sobre su ubicación, propietarios, aforos, días y horarios de trabajo, programación y precios de entrada. La lectura de este texto despierta una experiencia similar a la que se recrea en sus páginas, donde cada función de 30 “vistas fijas” y “de movimiento” duraba 2 horas. Como dice Jean Paul Sartre en Las palabras (citado en la nota 87 del volumen de marras): “[…] Por fin miraba la pantalla: descubría una tiza fluorescente, unos paisajes parpadeantes […]”. La función está por comenzar.

This book was released on 1989 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This definitive edition of Columbus's account of the voyage presents the most accurate printed version of his journal available to date. Unfortunately both Columbus's original manuscript, presented to Ferdinand and Isabella along with other evidence of his discoveries, and a single complete copy have been lost for centuries. The primary surviving record of the voyage-part quotation, part summary of the complete copy-is a transcription made by Bartolome de las Casas in the 1530s. This new edition of the Las Casas manuscript presents its entire contents-including notes, insertions, and canceled text-more accurately, completely, and graphically than any other Spanish text published so far. In addition, the new translation, which strives for readability and accuracy, appears on pages facing the Spanish, encouraging on-the- spot comparisons of the translation with the original. Study of the work is further facilitated by extensive notes, documenting differences between the editors' transcription and translation and those of other transcribers and translators and summarizing current research and debates on unanswered current research and debates on unanswered questions concerning the voyage. In addition to being the only edition in which Spanish and English are presented side by side, this edition includes the only concordance ever prepared for the Diario. Awaited by scholars, this new edition will help reduce the guesswork that has long plagued the study of Columbus's voyage. It may shed light on a number of issues related to Columbus's navigational methods and the identity of his landing places, issues whose resolution depend, at least in part, on an accurate transcription of the Diario. Containing day-by-day accounts of the voyage and the first sighting of land, of the first encounters with the native populations and the first appraisals of his islands explored, and of a suspenseful return voyage to Spain, the Diario provides a fascinating and useful account to historians, geographers, anthropologists, sailors, students, and anyone else interested in the discovery-or in a very good sea story. Oliver Dunn received the PH.D. degree from Cornell University. He is Professor Emeritus in Purdue University and a longtime student of Spanish and early history of Spanish America. James E. Kelley, Jr., received the M.A. degree from American University. A mathematician and computer and management consultant by vocation, for the past twenty years he has studied the history of European cartography and navigation in late-medieval times. Both are members of the Society for the History of Discoveries and have written extensively on the history of navigation and on Columbus's first voyage, Although they remain unconvinced of its conclusions, both were consultants to the National geographic Society's 1986 effort to establish Samana Cay as the site of Columbus's first landing.

Book excerpt: Throughout history, potters, sculptors, painters, poets, novelists, cartoonists, song-writers, photographers, and filmmakers have recorded and tried to make sense of boxing. From Daniel Mendoza to Mike Tyson, boxers have embodied and enacted our anxieties about race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality. In her encyclopedic investigation of the shifting social, political, and cultural resonances of this most visceral of sports, Kasia Boddy throws new light on an elemental struggle for dominance whose weapons are nothing more than fists. Looking afresh at everything from neoclassical sculpture to hip-hop lyrics, Boddy explores the ways in which the history of boxing has intersected with the history of mass media. Boddy pulls no punches, looking to the work of such diverse figures as Henry Fielding and Spike Lee, Charlie Chaplin and Philip Roth, James Joyce and Mae West, Bertolt Brecht and Charles Dickens in an all-encompassing study that tells us just how and why boxing has mattered so much to so many.

Book excerpt: At the crossroads of art and science, Beautiful Brain presents Nobel Laureate Santiago Ramón y Cajal’s contributions to neuroscience through his groundbreaking artistic brain imagery. Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852–1934) was the father of modern neuroscience and an exceptional artist. He devoted his life to the anatomy of the brain, the body’s most complex and mysterious organ. His superhuman feats of visualization, based on fanatically precise techniques and countless hours at the microscope, resulted in some of the most remarkable illustrations in the history of science. Beautiful Brain presents a selection of his exquisite drawings of brain cells, brain regions, and neural circuits with accessible descriptive commentary. These drawings are explored from multiple perspectives: Larry W. Swanson describes Cajal’s contributions to neuroscience; Lyndel King and Eric Himmel explore his artistic roots and achievement; Eric A. Newman provides commentary on the drawings; and Janet M. Dubinsky describes contemporary neuroscience imaging techniques. This book is the companion to a traveling exhibition opening at the Weisman Art Museum in Minneapolis in February 2017, marking the first time that many of these works, which are housed at the Instituto Cajal in Madrid, have been seen outside of Spain. Beautiful Brain showcases Cajal’s contributions to neuroscience, explores his artistic roots and achievement, and looks at his work in relation to contemporary neuroscience imaging, appealing to general readers and professionals alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hit movie La Bamba (based on the life of Richie Valens), the versatile singer Linda Ronstadt, and the popular rock group Los Lobos all have roots in the dynamic music of the Mexican-American community in East Los Angeles. With the recent "Eastside Renaissance" in the area, barrio music has taken on symbolic power throughout the Southwest, yet its story has remained undocumented and virtually untold. In Barrio Rhythm, Steven Loza brings this hidden history to life, demonstrating the music's essential role in the cultural development of East Los Angeles and its influence on mainstream popular culture. Drawing from oral histories and other primary sources, as well as from appropriate representative songs, Loza provides a historical overview of the music from the nineteenth century to the present and offers in-depth profiles of nine Mexican-American artists, groups, and entrepreneurs in Southern California from the post-World War II era to the present. His interviews with many of today's most influential barrio musicians, including members of Los Lobos, Eddie Cano, Lalo Guerrero, and Willie chronicle the cultural forces active in this complex urban community.

Throughout the text are clear technical and mathematical explanations, and portraits of the remarkable personalities who wrote and broke the world's most difficult codes. Accessible, compelling, and remarkably far-reaching, this book will forever alter your view of history and what drives it. It will also make you wonder how private that e-mail you just sent really is.
