Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book in English on Horacio Quiroga (Uruguay 1878-Argentina 1937), a canonical author whose works are read by all advanced students of Spanish in the US and many other countries. The study examines Quiroga’s work through the theoretical lens of the heroic—a lens elaborated in part by means of Quiroga’s own disquisitions on the subject—and the complementary phenomenon of the monstrous. This lens serves to elucidate many evidently obscure and self-contradictory aspects of Quiroga’s work and its relation to the context in which he lived. That context included the neo-colonial social and economic milieu of Argentina’s fast-changing, immigrant-charged, increasingly materialistic society; the growing influence of foreign cultural discourses, particularly Hollywood film; the conflict between the genders in a society that embraced modernity but resisted changes in gender roles; the weight of new scientific discourses, especially Darwinian evolution, in social and political thought; and the impact on pedagogical theory and practice of these multiple changing discourses. This study discloses the extraordinary range of Quiroga’s work, which includes erotic romance, science fiction and fantasy, psychological occult, social satire, a great variety of juvenile literature, outdoor adventure and—most familiar to readers in the United States—gothic and naturalist horror. The book concludes that Quiroga’s consistent imperative of the heroic is essential to reconciling these various, evidently incompatible aspects of Quiroga’s poetics, revealing its theoretical and ethical coherence.

Book excerpt: El canon horizontal, más que un conjunto de ensayos empeñados en apreciaciones coyunturales sobre la producción textual de dominicanos y puertorriqueños disecciona y compara, traza un mapa claro y definido de rutas alternas para el estudio y disfrute de una literatura plena en voces y afluencias. Hurga en los elementos productivos de los textos, su teoría, sus logros formales y en la expresión de una poética del decir a fin de encontrar el sentido. Es decir, una síntesis entre sentir el arte y conocer sus diversas manifestaciones, la verdadera estética Miguel Ángel Fornerín.

Ganador del Premio Nacional de Ensayo Pedro Henríquez Ureña con los libros: La escritura de Pedro Mir (1995) y Los letrados y la nación dominicana (2014).

This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 964 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of the still very valuable Biblioteca histórica de la filología by Cipriano Muñoz y Manzano, conde de la Viñaza (Madrid, 1893), our knowledge of the history of the study of the Spanish language has grown considerably, and most manuscript and secondary sources had never been tapped before Hans-Josef Niederehe of the University of Trier courageously undertook the task to bring together any available bibliographical information together with much more recent research findings, scattered in libraries, journals and other places. The resulting Bibliografía cronológica de la lingüística, la gramática y la lexicografía del español: Desde los principios hasta el año 1600 (BICRES) began appearing in 1994. BICRES I covered the period from the early beginnings to 1600), followed by BICRES II (1601–1700), BICRES III (1701–1800), and together with Miguel Ángel Esparza Torres of Madrid there followed BICRES IV (1801 to 1860). Now, the fifth volume, has become available, covering the years from 1861 to 1899. Access to the bibliographical information of altogether 5,272 titles is facilitated by several detailed indexes, such as a short title index, a listing of printers, publishers and places of production, and an author index. More than twenty years of research in the major libraries of Spain and other European countries have gone into this unique work — relative sources of the Americas have also been covered — making it exhaustive source for any serious scholar of any possible aspect of the Spanish language.

Book excerpt: Soon after the fall of the Aztec empire in 1521, missionaries began teaching Latin to native youths in Mexico. This initiative was intended to train indigenous students for positions of leadership, but it led some of them to produce significant writings of their own in Latin, and to translate a wide range of literature, including Aesop's fables, into their native language. Aztec Latin reveals the full extent to which the first Mexican authors mastered and made use of European learning and provides a timely reassessment of what those indigenous authors really achieved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Struggles for Recognition traces the emergence of melodrama in Latin American silent film and silent film culture. Juan Sebastián Ospina León draws on extensive archival research to reveal how melodrama visualized and shaped the social arena of urban modernity in early twentieth-century Latin America. Analyzing sociocultural contexts through film, this book demonstrates the ways in which melodrama was mobilized for both liberal and illiberal ends, revealing or concealing social inequities from Buenos Aires to Bogotá to Los Angeles. Ospina León critically engages Euro-American and Latin American scholarship seldom put into dialogue, offering an innovative theorization of melodrama relevant to scholars working within and across different national contexts.

Book excerpt: ¿De qué hablaban Mozart y Da Ponte mientras componían? ¿Qué palabras amargas se dijeron Verdi y el duque de Rivas frente al Teatro Real de Madrid en la víspera de estrenar La forza del destino? ¿Por qué dejaron de compartir habitación Musorsgky y Rimsky-Korsakov? ¿Tenía envidia Haendel de Bach, o tenía miedo, o solo le dio pereza recibirle y por eso nunca llegaron ni a saludarse? ¿Cómo se tomaba Liszt las críticas de Berlioz? ¿Qué dijo Schubert, un poco borracho, el día del entierro de Beethoven? Las respuestas a estas preguntas... no las tenemos con certeza. Pero el autor de este libro las ha imaginado ayudado por las cartas, las biografías, los testimonios de la época y la obra de los compositores y artistas que protagonizan este libro. Con verdadera admiración y cariño hacia sus personajes, buen pulso narrativo, sentido del humor y atención al detalle, Santiago Miralles Huete firma 24 preludios (y una inesperada "fuga" final) que componen una historia de la música clásica. Alternativa, literaria, imaginada si se quiere, pero fiel y documentada. Un verdadero festín para melómanos de todos los géneros y todas las edades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary art and multicultural education is the first book of its kind to address the role of art within today's multicultural education. Co-published with the New Museum of Contemporary Art, this beautifully illustrated book provides both theoretical foundations and practical resources for art educators and students, combining exquisite color reproductions, statements from contemporary artists and interviews with notable educators. Absent from multicultural art education is an approach which connects everyday experience, social critique and creative expression with classroom learning; for students from widely-varied backgrounds and differing levels of English comprehension, art becomes a vital means of reflecting upon the nature of society and social existence. To this end, this volume features both works of art and artists' personal statements in English and Spanish with lesson plans which explore topics that connect what students learn in school to what life experiences might reveal.
