Book Synopsis The Prison Letters of Fidel Castro by : Fidel Castro
Download or read book The Prison Letters of Fidel Castro written by Fidel Castro and published by Bold Type Books. This book was released on 2009-04-29 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early in Ann Louise Bardach's Cuban voyage she came across Cartas de Presidio or The Prison Letters of Fidel Castro. Edited by Luis Conte Aguero, who was the recipient of most of these letters, they are cited in every important work from Hugh Thomas' opus Cuba to Tad Szulc's Fidel biography, and everything in between and since. These twenty-one letters (nine to Conte Aguero, six to his late sister and close collaborator, Lidia, one to his wife Mirta, one to his comrade in combat, Melba Hernandez letters, one to the great scholar Jorge Manach) are regarded as the single most valuable and revelatory document regarding Fidel Castro and the Cuban Revolution. Never before published in English, these letters were written when Castro was imprisoned for his failed attack on the Moncada from 1953 to 1955 and reveal a man of spectacular ambition and steely determination. A man, who despite being incarcerated to serve a lengthy prison term, never wavers in his confidence that he will one day rule Cuba.

This book was released on 2007-09-06 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzing the crucial period of the Cuban Revolution from 1959 to 1961, Samuel Farber challenges dominant scholarly and popular views of the revolution's sources, shape, and historical trajectory. Unlike many observers, who treat Cuba's revolutionary leaders as having merely reacted to U.S. policies or domestic socioeconomic conditions, Farber shows that revolutionary leaders, while acting under serious constraints, were nevertheless autonomous agents pursuing their own independent ideological visions, although not necessarily according to a master plan. Exploring how historical conflicts between U.S. and Cuban interests colored the reactions of both nations' leaders after the overthrow of Fulgencio Batista, Farber argues that the structure of Cuba's economy and politics in the first half of the twentieth century made the island ripe for radical social and economic change, and the ascendant Soviet Union was on hand to provide early assistance. Taking advantage of recently declassified U.S. and Soviet documents as well as biographical and narrative literature from Cuba, Farber focuses on three key years to explain how the Cuban rebellion rapidly evolved from a multiclass, antidictatorial movement into a full-fledged social revolution.

Book excerpt: Quimera es el segundo de los diez tomos de la Coleccin Poesas del Presidio compuesta por el Preso Poltico Plantado, Luis L. Arroyo durante sus 27 aos de Prisin Poltica en Cuba, narrando cotidianidades e incidencias de su estancia en prisin. Quimera no es un poemario de testimonios sobre el Presidio Poltico Cubano y, sin embargo, es un libro de testimonios. Quimera no es un libro temtico y, sin embargo, es un poemario temtico. Quimera no es un libro de testimonios sobre los crmenes cometidos por el Comunismo, Fidel y Ral Castro contra el Presidio Poltico Cubano, porque la Letra de sus poemas no establece denuncia alguna de los horrores vividos,... ni describe ningn acto de barbarie. Sin embargo, el Espritu de la Letra de cada poema, s encarna un fuerte testimonio que demuestra que los presos polticos cubanos jams perdieron su condicin de seres humanos con todos sus valores ticos de familia, de fraternidad, de solidaridad, de humanismo, de libertad,... a pesar de los horrores dantescos a que eran sometidos (y continan sometiendo a los presos actuales) por parte del Comunismo, de Fidel y de Ral Castro dentro del trance de la implantacin del marxismo-leninismo en Cuba y la conversin de sta en Colonia de Rusia, lo que conllevaba la imposicin, en las crceles cubanas, del salvaje y barbrico y pulverizante Sistema Penitenciario Ruso que se basaba en la aniquilacin del Preso medinate un rgimen pseudocientfico de ciclos de experimentos biolgicos, qumicos, dietticos, psicolgicos,... que provocaban enfermedades y hasta la muerte, inasistencia mdica,... amn de torturas fsicas, incomunicacin, aislamiento en hermtica soledumbre, trabajos forzados, golpizas, bayonetenamientos, baleamientos y hasta el asesinato directo,... todo esto diriguido a quebrarle al preso su espritu de resistencia fsica, ideolgica y moral y desajustarlo psquicamente, embrutecerlo, enajenarlo, despersonalizalo -y tratar de adoctrinarlo de ser posible- para, convertido en una Cosa y Cosificado, anularlo para siempre. Sin embargo, Quimera no da testimonios de ese socipata rgimen penitenciario; pero cada uno de sus poemas s da testimonio de que el preso, en pleno infierno, se expresaba con un Lenguaje libre de los efectos demoledores de la Prisin Comunista, los que no lograban daarle la Conciencia, por lo que su Poesa poda brotar sin la influencia deprimente de las torturas, sin plaidos, amarguras, resentimientos, odio, revanchismo... Quimera es un Canto a la Vida, al Amor a la Familia, a la Fe en Dios, a la Filosofa, a la Idiosincrasia y Cultura del Cubano, a las Remembranzas, a las Quimeras del Hombre en su Privacin... Y Quimera es temtica, porque mantiene la lnea expresada de principio a fin. Leda Quimera, el Lector podra decir que Quimera es, de por s, un inequvoco Testimonio de que, en todo tiempo y lugar, el Ser Humano posee la capacidad y fortleza sobradas para no sucumbir y mantener inclume sus sentimientos a pesar de las circunstancias.
Book Synopsis Heroes, Martyrs, and Political Messiahs in Revolutionary Cuba, 1946-1958 by : Lillian Guerra
Download or read book Heroes, Martyrs, and Political Messiahs in Revolutionary Cuba, 1946-1958 written by Lillian Guerra and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-24 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leading scholar sheds light on the experiences of ordinary Cubans in the unseating of the dictator Fulgencio Batista In this important and timely volume, one of today’s foremost experts on Cuban history and politics fills a significant gap in the literature, illuminating how Cuba’s electoral democracy underwent a tumultuous transformation into a military dictatorship. Lillian Guerra draws on her years of research in newly opened archives and on personal interviews to shed light on the men and women of Cuba who participated in mass mobilization and civic activism to establish social movements in their quest for social and racial justice and for more accountable leadership. Driven by a sense of duty toward la patria (the fatherland) and their dedication to heroism and martyrdom, these citizens built a powerful underground revolutionary culture that shaped and witnessed the overthrow of Batista in the late 1950s. Beautifully illustrated with archival photographs, this volume is a stunning addition to Latin American history and politics.

Book Synopsis Spanish Colonial Lives by : Linda Tigges
Download or read book Spanish Colonial Lives written by Linda Tigges and published by Sunstone Press. This book was released on 2016-01-21 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On their return to New Mexico from El Paso after the 1680 Pueblo Revolt, the New Mexican settlers were confronted with continuous raids by hostile Indians tribes, disease and an inhospitable landscape. In spite of this, in the early and mid-eighteenth century, the New Mexicans went about their daily lives as best they could, as shown in original documents from the time. The documents show them making deals, traveling around the countryside and to and from El Paso and Mexico City, complaining about and arguing with each other, holding festivals, and making plans for the future of their children. It also shows them interacting with the presidio soldiers, the Franciscan friars and Inquisition officials, El Paso and Chihuahua merchants, the occasional Frenchman, and their Pueblo Indian allies. Because many of the documents include oral testimony, we are able to read what they had to say, sometimes angry, asking for help, or giving excuses for their behavior, as written down by a scribe at the time. This book includes fifty-four original handwritten documents from the early and mid-eighteenth century. Most of the original documents are located in the Spanish Archives of New Mexico, although some are from the Bancroft Library at the University of California at Berkeley, the Archivo General de la Nacion in Mexico City, and elsewhere. They were selected for their description of Spanish Colonial life, of interest to the many descendants of the characters that appear in them, and because they tell a good story. A translation and transcription of each document is included as well as a synopsis, background notes, and biographical notes. They can be considered a companion, in part, to Ralph Emerson Twitchell’s 1914 two volumes, The Spanish Archives of New Mexico, summarizing the documents of the Spanish Archives of New Mexico, now available in new editions from Sunstone Press.
