Book Synopsis Killer Crónicas by : Susana Chávez-Silverman
Download or read book Killer Crónicas written by Susana Chávez-Silverman and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2004-09-15 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A woman living and communicating in multiple lands, Susana Chávez-Silverman conveys her cultural and linguistic displacement in humorous, bittersweet, and even tangible ways in this truly bilingual literary work. These meditative and lyrical pieces combine poignant personal confession, detailed daily observation, and a memorializing drive that shifts across time and among geocultural spaces. The author’s inventive and flamboyant use of Spanglish, a hybrid English-Spanish idiom, and her adaptation of the confessional "crónica" make this memoir compelling and powerful. Killer Crónicas confirms that there is no Latina voice quite like that of Susana Chávez-Silverman. Includes a chapter that was awarded first prize in El Andar magazine’s Chicano Literary Excellence Contest in the category of personal memoir.

Los ejercicios, todos ellos diseñados a partir de los propios textos, pretenden repasar problemas gramaticales y léxicos tradicionales, con especial énfasis en aquellos que atañen a las variedades dialectales del español americano: por ejemplo, el uso del pronombre ‘vos’. Este libro es un excelente material de lectura que puede usarse en clases de español como segunda lengua o en clases de español para hablantes de herencia, tanto en clases de lengua (gramática o conversación) como de contenido (cultura). Dividido en nueve capítulos, el material abarca temas cruciales tales como política, identidad, raza, género, inmigración, violencia, exilio, medio ambiente, gastronomía, fútbol y música. Cada texto puede leerse de forma independiente, lo que permite que los profesores seleccionen las lecturas según las particularidades de cada curso. Pensado en un principio para estudiantes de español, esta antología es sobre todo una lectura indispensable para cualquier persona interesada en la zona que concentra el mayor número de hispanohablantes en el mundo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CRÓNICA DE UN CANIBALSinópsisCrónica de un Caníbal es una historia de amor, de dolor y de perseverancia. Es la historia de Sebastián Mogollón, un muchacho pobre que se enamora de Beatriz una muchacha rica de ciudad Panamá. El inicio de la novela tiene lugar en ciudad Panamá, a finales de la década del los ochenta, durante el gobierno de Manuel Antonio Noriega. Luego los personajes emigran a la ciudad de Nueva york, y la novela se desarrolla en las zonas marginadas de Brooklyn y el bajo Manhattan. Es diciembre del 1989, y además de todas las barreras sociales que se interponen en los planes de Sebastián para conquistar al amor de su vida, parece que el destino conspira también contra él. Sebastián, desesperado por ganarse el cariño de Beatriz, recuerda un embrujo de amor que le había enseñado un amigo. Se ilusiona pensando que sin dudas Beatriz se rendiría ante ese sortilegio. Para su sorpresa, ella se escapa con otro de sus pretendientes a los Estados Unidos. Sebastián cae en una depresión tal, que sólo desea morirse o dormir toda una vida; no se suicida porque le falta la energía suficiente para levantarse de la cama y matarse. Rehúsa escuchar los consejos de sus padres y su hermana, y solo encuentra algún alivio a su desventura tocando la guitarra y escuchando canciones de boleros. Cuando pensaba que dentro de él no quedaba más espacio para más sufrimiento, su familia perece durante la invasión de Estados Unidos a Panamá de 1989. Sin Beatriz, y sin su familia, Sebastián pierde aun más la falta de interés por la vida. Su amigo César Ramirez le recuerda que siempre hay razón para seguir viviendo, que solo se ha perdido una batalla, pero no la guerra, y lo convence para que emigre a Los Estados Unidos. Los dos atraviesan la frontera Méjico-Estados Unidos y llegan a Williamsburg, New York, un sector plagado drogas, prostitución y violencia. Sebastián había escuchado sobre los pesares que sufren los emigrantes en Nueva York, pero nunca pensó vivirlos en carne propia. Aprender un nuevo idioma, adaptarse a nueva cultura, sobrevivir al peligro de las calles del Williamsburg, y a los inviernos de Nueva York, sin embargo no lo desanimaron a seguir buscando el tesoro que escondía los muros de esa gran ciudad. Con la paciencia de quien busca una aguja en un pajar y está dispuesto a remover cada hoja de heno hasta encontrarla, o como el cazador furtivo que en medio del bosque arma una trampa y se sienta a esperar, así Sebastián espera que el efecto de ese embrujo de amor haga su efecto en Beatriz. El tema de la novela tiene cierta similitud con El Amor en los Tiempos del Cólera de Gabriel García Márquez. Es la historia del músico pobre que se enamora de la muchacha rica. Sebastián Mogollón, al igual que Florentino Ariza, en El Amor en los Tiempos del Cólera, se enferma gravemente de amor y ambos se refugian en la música para consolarse. La perseverancia, y un amor que prevalece a través de los años es el tema principal de ambas novelas. Pero a diferencia de Florentino Ariza, Sebastián no pretende hacerse rico y famoso para poder conquistar a Beatriz. Él se conforma con mucho menos: le es suficiente con ser un mesero de un restauran, y ver a través del cristal a la gente pasar, y soñar con algún día ver a Beatriz pasar frente a él.

Book Synopsis Too Much of Life: The Complete Crônicas by : Clarice Lispector
Download or read book Too Much of Life: The Complete Crônicas written by Clarice Lispector and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 717 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the magnificent feast of Clarice Lispector’s books, her crônicas—short, intensely vivid newspaper pieces—are the delicious canapés The things I’ve learned from taxi drivers would be enough to fill a book. They know a lot: they really do get around. I may know a lot about Antonioni that they don’t know. Or maybe they do even when they don’t. There are various ways of knowing by not-knowing. I know: it happens to me too. The crônica, a literary genre peculiar to Brazilian newspapers, allows writers (or even soccer stars) to address a wide readership on any theme they like. Chatty, mystical, intimate, flirtatious, and revelatory, Clarice Lispector’s pieces for the Saturday edition of Rio’s leading paper, the Jornal do Brasil, from 1967 to 1973, take the forms of memories, essays, aphorisms, and serialized stories. Endlessly delightful, her insights make one sit up and think, whether about children or social ills or pets or society women or the business of writing or love. This new, large, and beautifully translated volume, Too Much of Life: The Complete Crônicas presents a new aspect of the great writer—at once off the cuff and spot on.
Download or read book Broken Bars written by Kay S. García and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elena Poniatowska, Angeles Mastretta, Silvia Molina, and Brianda Domecq are Mexican writers whose works are beginning to attract substantial critical attention. To date, their work is not well known in the United States nor can readers obtain much information about the writers themselves. By combining in-depth interviews with critical essays, Kay Garcia provides an invaluable service to those who would like to have a better understanding of contemporary Mexican writing. Using a feminist literary critical approach, Garcia explores the connections between the writers' lives and their works. Both the writers and their protagonists have attempted to shape realities for themselves that contradict official discourses and boundaries. Unlike many writers of fiction today, these women give voice to the marginalized elements of Mexican society. The interviews, critical essays, and bibliography of Broken Bars will serve to make their works more accessible to readers in the United States.

Download or read book Volcanoes written by John P. Lockwood and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: VOLCANOES Since the publication of the first edition of Volcanoes in 2010, our world of volcanology has changed in exciting ways. Volcanoes have continued to erupt (some 61 eruptions with VEI magnitudes greater than 3 have taken place since 2010), and in this revised and updated edition, the authors describe the largest of these, and the ones that have had the most impact on society. Volcanoes, Second Edition, contains more than 80 new photographs and figures to better illustrate volcanic features and processes, with an updated Bibliography that includes important papers describing recent eruptions and new findings. Volcanologic research is improving the foundations of knowledge upon which all our science rests, and we briefly summarize the most important of these advances and new research tools developed over the past eleven years. The most productive of these new tools are remotely operated, constantly monitoring volcanoes and their impacts on the Earth’s atmosphere from space and exploring new volcanic worlds beyond the bounds of Earth. Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) are now widely available to understand better the most active volcanoes on Earth - those beneath the sea. This superlative textbook will enable students who may never see an erupting volcano to evaluate news stories about far-away eruptions, and to distinguish between overly sensational stories and factual reporting that puts facts in context. Emergency managers, land use planners, and civic officials also need to understand volcanic processes when their communities are threatened – this book will inform and guide them in their decision-making. Avoiding overly technical discussions and unnecessary use of jargon, with the important needs of civil authorities, teachers and students particularly in mind, this second edition of Volcanoes will also be of interest to general readers who are interested in these fascinating and ever-changing features of our dynamic planet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La trama ocurre en 1996, y sus orígenes nos llevan por las décadas del 60' al 90'; En este texto se deja traslucir la diversidad de la represión, desde dos protagonistas. -Un militar aparentemente normal, que acepta apropiarse de un bebe durante la dictadura. Un apropiador mundano, corrupto y ambiguo, enmarañado por su formación, se apoya en una filosofía desquiciante, basando su proceder en la caricatura del bueno que salva al niño del infierno rojo. -Un niño nacido en cautiverio que reconstruye sus raíces uruguayas, relacionadas a quien fue miembro de los "Tupamaros", y entre los años 1962 a 1964 del EGP (Ejército Guerrillero del Pueblo), primer grupo armado que opero en la Argentina. La historia se alimenta con hechos sociales y políticos ocurridos en Uruguay, Argentina y un pantallazo por Suecia y Nicaragua, como un reflejo de lo acontecido en el mundo entre esas décadas, donde aparecen distintos actores de la política argentina desde el 1970 al 1996.

This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alrededor del volcán Popocatépetl, los tiemperos, cuidadores del temporal o graniceros incursionan cada noche al mundo onírico para comunicarse con el volcán manteniéndolo contento, propiciando la lluvia y apaciguando el granizo que daña sus cosechas. Para los graniceros, la comunicación con el volcán es de vital importancia, sosteniendo una relación casi personal con él, considerándolo un ser vivo consciente con el cual comulgan día a día. A través de las narraciones de los sueños de Don Epifanio, el lector se adentrará en el inconsciente colectivo que permea el universo de los graniceros, en donde se manifiestan simbolísmos sincréticos a través de sus sueños arquetípicos que ayudan a comprender mejor la fusión espiritual que aun se aprecia en México.

Book Synopsis People of the Volcano by : Noble David Cook
Download or read book People of the Volcano written by Noble David Cook and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2007-06-27 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While it now attracts many tourists, the Colca Valley of Peru’s southern Andes was largely isolated from the outside world until the 1970s, when a passable road was built linking the valley—and its colonial churches, terraced hillsides, and deep canyon—to the city of Arequipa and its airport, eight hours away. Noble David Cook and his co-researcher Alexandra Parma Cook have been studying the Colca Valley since 1974, and this detailed ethnohistory reflects their decades-long engagement with the valley, its history, and its people. Drawing on unusually rich surviving documentary evidence, they explore the cultural transformations experienced by the first three generations of Indians and Europeans in the region following the Spanish conquest of the Incas. Social structures, the domestic export and economies, and spiritual spheres within native Andean communities are key elements of analysis. Also highlighted is the persistence of duality in the Andean world: perceived dichotomies such as those between the coast and the highlands, Europeans and Indo-Peruvians. Even before the conquest, the Cabana and Collagua communities sharing the Colca Valley were divided according to kinship and location. The Incas, and then the Spanish, capitalized on these divisions, incorporating them into their state structure in order to administer the area more effectively, but Colca Valley peoples resisted total assimilation into either. Colca Valley communities have shown a remarkable tenacity in retaining their social, economic, and cultural practices while accommodating various assimilationist efforts over the centuries. Today’s population maintains similarities with their ancestors of more than five hundred years ago—in language, agricultural practices, daily rituals, familial relationships, and practices of reciprocity. They also retain links to ecological phenomena, including the volcanoes from which they believe they emerged and continue to venerate.
