Book Synopsis Mexican Travel Writing by : Thea Pitman
Download or read book Mexican Travel Writing written by Thea Pitman and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a detailed study of salient examples of Mexican travel writing from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. While scholars have often explored the close relationship between European or North American travel writing and the discourse of imperialism, little has been written on how postcolonial subjects might relate to the genre. This study first traces the development of a travel-writing tradition based closely on European imperialist models in mid-nineteenth-century Mexico. It then goes on to analyse how the narrative techniques of postmodernism and the political agenda of postcolonialism might combine to help challenge the genre's imperialist tendencies in late twentieth-century works of travel writing, focusing in particular on works by writers Juan Villoro, Héctor Perea and Fernando Solana Olivares.

The presenters were leading architects and architectural historians from the region, and attendees included their colleagues as well as local and international university students, policy makers, civic leaders and developers from Jamaica, the surrounding Caribbean isalnds and the United States. This illustrated volume, co-published by MoMA and Archivos de Arquitectura Antillana (AAA), an architectural journal based in the Dominican Republic, presents the papers from this critical symposium in both English and Spanish, making them accessible to a broader public.

Book Synopsis Koumeterium Messolonghi by : Etréstles
Download or read book Koumeterium Messolonghi written by Etréstles and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Koumeterium Messolonghi es el Valle de las Luces, donde pragmatiza toda lesa mal herencia de no saber obrar con humildad o soberbia todas las vidas descursadas, el estímulo romántico que roza el infinitesimal contacto de estímulo Teomesolongui, de la mano que toca nuestra vida, del Dios Universal entumecido, meciendo nuestros sentidos a la luz de las luces de la casta Humana. Todo aquel desconocimiento no queda como el balde en la superficie del pozo sin hundirse, se hunde para luego remontar. Mesolongui es una gran Pira de Lavandas, Lirios y Lotos, renaciendo en los brazos de un Palo Santo. La descompresión celular de cada habitante de Mesolongui se reconvierte reciclada en un cúmulo de aromas frontales y volátiles para los nasones esferoides del Mundo Espiritual para vivir en los brazos del Señor y su Obra, siempre con Valentía ante cada fenómeno, que atente a paralizar, toda continuidad de amar el tiempo versus romanticismo, en los brazos de la existencia, de propagar mas allá de toda vivida y no vivida mueca de la Vida Eterna, sin temor a los temores infames del poderío ficticio del Hombre. Cerca del jardín de los héroes de Mesolongui, se encuentran los restos de los que murieron en la gran salida. Fue una legendaria lucha por la libertaria revolución de 1821 en Grecia, exactamente en Mesolongui. La tumba de Markos Botsaris y la estatua del gran helenófilo lord Byron se encuentran en este jardín. Cierta vez me encontraba buscando un libro, y este era inevadiblemente de tendencia oriental. Solía recordarme a mi maestro, el monje Dada Virajánanda, hablándome de los procesos del tiempo, del ayer, del hoy y del mañana; que todos a la vez eran una pura unidad. Que la muerte física tenía que ser de satisfacción espiritual, para que el espíritu no se desconecte de su cuerpo desechable. "Creo que en ningún lugar donde habitan las almas terrenales, habrá de poder encontrar más vida que aquí en el Cementerio de Mesolongui...". "Más allá de todo metal del Odio de todo Dios no oído, más allá de todo mal de tímido Odio no he Oído".
Book Synopsis The Grid and the Park by : Adrián Gorelik
Download or read book The Grid and the Park written by Adrián Gorelik and published by Latin America Research Commons. This book was released on 2022-02-07 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its publication in Spanish in 1998, The Grid and the Park not only revitalized studies on the history of Buenos Aires, but also laid the foundation for a specific type of cultural work on the city —an urban perspective for cultural history, as its author would describe it— that has had a sustained impact in Latin America. Public space, embodied in the grid of city blocks and the park system, here appears as a particularly productive category because it encompasses dimensions of the material city, politics, and culture, which are usually studied separately. From Domingo Faustino Sarmiento’s figurations of Palermo Park in the mid-nineteenth century to Jorge Luis Borges’s discovery of the suburb in the 1920s; from the modernization of the traditional center carried out by Mayor Torcuato de Alvear in the 1880s to the questioning of that centrality by the emergence of the suburban barrio, the book weaves the changing ideas on public space with urban culture to produce a new history of the metropolitan expansion of Buenos Aires, one of the most extensive and dynamic urban centers of the early twentieth century.
Book Synopsis Myth and Subversion in the Contemporary Novel by : José Manuel Losada Goya
Download or read book Myth and Subversion in the Contemporary Novel written by José Manuel Losada Goya and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bilingual work identifies and explains the subversive rewriting of ancient, medieval and modern myths in contemporary novels. The book opens with two theoretical essays on the subject of subversive tendencies and myth reinvention in the contemporary novel. From there, it moves on to the analysis of essential texts. Firstly, classical myths in works by authors such as André Gide, Thomas Pynchon, Julio Cortázar, Italo Calvino or Christa Wolf (for instance, Theseus, Oedipus or Medea) are discussed. Then, myths of biblical origin – such as the Flood or the Golem – are revisited in the work of Giorgio Bassani, Julian Barnes and Cynthia Ozick. A further section is concerned with the place of modern myths (Faust, the ghost, Ophelia…) in the fiction of Günter Grass, Paul Auster, or Clara Janés. The contributors have also delved into the relationship between myth and art – especially in the discourse of contemporary advertising, painting and cinema – and myth’s intercultural dimensions: hybridity in the Latin American novels of Augusto Roa Bastos and Carlos Fuentes, and in the Hindu-themed novels of Bharati Mukherjee. This volume emerges from the careful selection of 37 essays out of over 200 which were put forward by outstanding scholars from 25 different countries for the Madrid International Conference on Myth and Subversion (March 2011). Este volumen bilingüe identifica y explica la práctica subversiva aplicada a los mitos antiguos, medievales y modernos en la novela contemporánea. Abren el libro dos estudios teóricos sobre la tendencia subversiva y la reinvención de mitos en la actualidad. Prosigue el análisis de diversos textos de primera importancia. En primer lugar se revisan los mitos clásicos en autores como André Gide, Thomas Pynchon, Julio Cortázar, Italo Calvino o Christa Wolf (p. ej., Teseo, Edipo, Medea). En segundo lugar, la reescritura de los mitos bíblicos según Giorgio Bassani, Julian Barnes o Cynthia Ozick (p. ej., el diluvio o el Golem). En tercer lugar, mitos modernos en la ficción de Günter Grass, Paul Auster o Clara Janés (p. ej., Fausto, el fantasma, Ofelia). El volumen presta igualmente atención a las relaciones entre mito y arte (su recurrencia en la publicidad, la pintura y el cine contemporáneos) y a la vertiente intercultural de los mitos: el mestizaje en la novela latinoamericana de Augusto Roa Bastos y Carlos Fuentes, o en la de temática hindú de Bharati Mukherjee. La compilación resulta de una exquisita selección de 37 textos entre los más de 200 propuestos para el Congreso Internacional Mito y Subversión (Madrid, marzo de 2011) por investigadores de prestigio procedentes de 25 países.
