Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «En estos tiempos de miserias omnipresentes, de ciegas violencias, de catástrofes naturales o ecológicas, podría parecer que hablar de la belleza es incongruente, inconveniente, provocador, casi un escándalo. Pero precisamente por todo esto, vemos que, en oposición al mal, la belleza se sitúa en el otro extremo de una realidad a la que debemos hacer frente». FRANÇOIS CHENG Estas cinco meditaciones, que originalmente fueron cinco sesiones orales, constituyen un breve pero intenso diálogo entre la estética occidental, fundamentalmente la renacentista, y la estética oriental, en especial la china, que nos adentra en el misterio de la belleza como luz y como espíritu.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El autor enfatiza que sin una aguda conciencia de la barbarie del mundo, el tema de la belleza no puede ser discutido de manera erudita. Él cree que, dado el dominio casi universal del cinismo, la estética solo puede llegar al fondo si permite que la ética la subvierta. En otras palabras, el autor cree que la verdadera belleza sólo puede revelarse cuando nos fijamos en la realidad crucial del "entre", en la relación que une a los seres, en "aquello que surge de lo vivo, que de consiste en lo inesperado y lo inesperado." Para captar la esencia de la belleza, el autor quería pedir rostros frente a los cuales las palabras de belleza pudieran aparecer como irresistibles. Quería crear un encuentro real con personas de carne y hueso, con miradas y escuchas, creyendo que la revelación de la verdadera belleza pasa por la intersección y la penetración mutua. Invitó a un grupo de amigos -artistas o científicos, filósofos o psicoanalistas, escritores o antropólogos, conocedores de Oriente y China o no- a presenciar la creación de estas meditaciones durante cinco veladas inolvidables. El autor señala que las meditaciones están marcadas con el sello de la moralidad y deben leerse como tales. A menudo proceden a través de una profundización progresiva en una especie de pensamiento en espiral, donde ciertas repeticiones, inevitables, son en realidad ricas en algo nuevo que emerge del intercambio entre el poeta y sus interlocutores. Cada participante en estos encuentros podría vivir una extraña experiencia en estos momentos de intensa presencia: un hombre se entregó totalmente y en humildad para evocar una realidad aparentemente "inútil", descuidada, incluso ridiculizada por nuestra sociedad, pero en el fondo En esta preciosa fragilidad. entre seres, sucedió algo único que todos sintieron repentinamente que era fundamental. El autor cree que las meditaciones se ofrecen para compartir con un mayor número de personas para que la chispa de belleza que tienen encienda la vida. Él espera que el libro transforme a los lectores y los haga lo mejor de sí mismos. El autor destaca que el libro no es un pesado tratado académico, sino una aproximación personal al tema de la belleza. Él cree que el libro puede transformar a los lectores y ayudarlos a convertirse en personas más éticas, empáticas y compasivas.

Book Synopsis The Way of Beauty by : François Cheng
Download or read book The Way of Beauty written by François Cheng and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-06-25 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Five meditations on the role of beauty in human life and its direct connection with the sacred • Looks at how beauty has the power to elevate and counterbalance the negative side of the reality facing us • Presents the role of beauty in transforming individuals and transforming the world from a Taoist perspective In a time of mindless violence and widespread ecological and natural catastrophes, François Cheng asks if talking about beauty may not seem incongruous even scandalous. Yet this is actually the most appropriate time to revisit a subject that was a philosophical mainstay for millennia. The power of beauty to elevate and transcend counterbalances the negative side of the reality facing us. As John Keats noted in “Ode on a Grecian Urn,” beauty is inseparable from truth: “Beauty is truth, truth beauty,--that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.” The ultimate human reality pivots on these two extremes of the living universe--beauty and evil. Cheng begins his teachings with the intrinsic sense of beauty revealed by the landscape, symbolized by the staggeringly beautiful Lu Mountain of his native province in China. His five meditations carry the reader from the understanding of beauty being in the mind of the beholder to its intimate relationship with the sacred, both from a Western and Taoist perspective. He shows that the most telling indication of the importance of beauty in human life and for individual spiritual realization can be grasped by simply imagining a world without it.

Book Synopsis The History of Water Management in the Iberian Peninsula by : Ana Duarte Rodrigues
Download or read book The History of Water Management in the Iberian Peninsula written by Ana Duarte Rodrigues and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume approaches the history of water in the Iberian Peninsula in a novel way, by linking it to the ongoing international debate on water crisis and solutions to overcome the lack of water in the Mediterranean. What water devices were found? What were the models for these devices? How were they distributed in the villas and monastic enclosures? What impact did hydraulic theoretical knowledge have on these water systems, and how could these systems impact on hydraulic technology? Guided by these questions, this book covers the history of water in the most significant cities, the role of water in landscape transformation, the irrigation systems and water devices in gardens and villas, and, lastly, the theoretical and educational background on water management and hydraulics in the Iberian Peninsula between the sixteenth and the nineteenth centuries. Historiography on water management in the territory that is today Spain has highlighted the region’s role as a mediator between the Islamic masters of water and the Christian world. The history of water in Portugal is less known, and it has been taken for granted that is similar to its neighbour. This book compares two countries that have the same historical roots and, therefore, many similar stories, but at the same time, offers insights into particular aspects of each country. It is recommended for scholars and researchers interested in any field of history of the early modern period and of the nineteenth century, as well as general readers interested in studies on the Iberian Peninsula, since it was the role model for many settlements in South America, Asia and Africa.

Download or read book Crossfire written by Roberta Johnson and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The marriage of philosophy and fiction in the first third of Spain's twentieth century was a fertile one. It produced some truly notable offspring -- novels that cross genre boundaries to find innovative forms, and treatises that fuse literature and philosophy in new ways. In her illuminating interdisciplinary study of Spanish fiction of the "Silver Age," Roberta Johnson places this important body of Spanish literature in context through a synthesis of social, literary, and philosophical history. Her examination of the work of Miguel de Unamuno, Pio Baroja, Azorin, Ramon Perez de Ayala, Juan Ramon Jimenez, Gabriel Miro, Pedro Salinas, Rosa Chacel, and Benjamin Jarnes brings to light philosophical frictions and debates and opens new interpersonal and intertextual perspectives on many of the period's most canonical novels. Johnson reformulates the traditional discussion of generations and "isms" by viewing the period as an intergenerational complex in which writers with similar philosophical and personal interests constituted dynamic groupings that interacted and constantly defined and redefined one another. Current narratological theories, including those of Todorov, Genette, Bakhtin, and Martinez Bonati, assist in teasing out the intertextual maneuvers and philosophical conflicts embedded in the novels of the period, while the sociological and biographical material bridges the philosophical and literary analyses. The result, solidly grounded in original archival research, is a convincingly complete picture of Spain's intellectual world in the first thirty years of this century. Crossfire should revolutionize thinking about the Generation of '98 and the Generation of '14 by identifying the heterogeneous philosophical sources of each and the writers' reactions to them in fiction.

Book Synopsis Adam Buenosayres by : Leopoldo Marechal
Download or read book Adam Buenosayres written by Leopoldo Marechal and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 897 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A modernist urban novel in the tradition of James Joyce, Adam Buenosayres is a tour-de-force that does for Buenos Aires what Carlos Fuentes did for Mexico City or José Lezama Lima did for Havana - chronicles a city teeming with life in all its clever and crass, rude and intelligent forms. Employing a range of literary styles and a variety of voices, Leopoldo Marechal parodies and celebrates Argentina's most brilliant literary and artistic generation, the martinfierristas of the 1920s, among them Jorge Luis Borges. First published in 1948 during the polarizing reign of Juan Perón, the novel was hailed by Julio Cortázar as an extraordinary event in twentieth-century Argentine literature. Set over the course of three break-neck days, Adam Buenosayres follows the protagonist through an apparent metaphysical awakening, a battle for his soul fought by angels and demons, and a descent through a place resembling a comic version of Dante's hell. Presenting both a breathtaking translation and thorough explanatory notes, Norman Cheadle captures the limitless language of Marechal's original and guides the reader along an unmatched journey through the culture of Buenos Aires. This first-ever English translation brings to light Marechal's masterwork with an introduction outlining the novel's importance in various contexts - Argentine, Latin American, and world literature - and with notes illuminating its literary, cultural, and historical references. A salient feature of the Argentine canon, Adam Buenosayres is both a path-breaking novel and a key text for understanding Argentina's cultural and political history.
