Book Synopsis Faces of Resistance by : S. Ashley Kistler
Download or read book Faces of Resistance written by S. Ashley Kistler and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Maya have faced innumerable and constant challenges to their cultural identities in the last 500 years, from the subjugation of the contact and colonial periods, to the brutality of state-sponsored violence in Guatemala and the introduction of new global technologies. Oral tradition plays a fundamental role among the contemporary Maya as a means to record history and resist oppression. Although scholars have examined the processes of resistance and identity in different spheres, The Faces of Resistance: Maya Heroes, Power, and Identity is the first to unpack the importance of heroes as a cornerstone of Maya cultural and political resistance. This collection of essays by leading scholars explores how Maya communities draw on stories of indigenous heroes as an empowering cultural memory and a way to connect with the legacy of their extraordinary past. In particular, this volume considers how the Maya, following centuries of persecution and marginalization, use historical knowledge to generate and fortify their indigenous identities. The analysis of Maya heroes presented in this volume reveals that narratives of hero figures help the Maya to re-connect with an understanding of their history that has survived centuries of oppression and legitimize the practices, beliefs, and morality that will define their future"--
Book Synopsis Dancing Girls, Loose Ladies, and Women of the Cloth by : F. Scott Spencer
Download or read book Dancing Girls, Loose Ladies, and Women of the Cloth written by F. Scott Spencer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2004-09-14 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The women in Jesus' life are a raucous and rowdy bunch, including "riotous" foremothers, "loose women," and "distressed daughters of Israel." Reading these new ways of interpreting women in the Gospels, male New Testament scholars have discovered liberating perspectives. In seven scintillating studies, Spencer explores among others the genealogy of Matthew's Gospel to discover the riotous yet righteous nature of Jesus' foremothers, slave girls and prophetic daughters in Luke-Acts, and women leading men in the Gospel of Mark 5-7. Scott Spencer, a virtuoso young New Testament scholar, provides his own lively forays into reading the Gospels through women's eyes. He shows what it is like for a man to read stories about the women in Jesus' life from a new perspective. Spencer is an able and inventive scholar whose broad-ranging insights and engaging style make his work very accessible.

Book Synopsis Fight Story by : Vamsidhar Chaturvedula
Download or read book Fight Story written by Vamsidhar Chaturvedula and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Who do you think you are? A monster slayer or a god? And why do you think people listen to monster-slayers or gods? It’s because they fear them more than the monsters themselves.” “People won’t fear me. I am not you.” “And you think it’s up to you to decide that? It’s the people we’re talking about. Gods and monsters—these are just different names people give to justify their clinging to something higher, to hide their inherent, weakness-driven, pathetic behaviours. They will form cults after you. They will blindly follow you. You think you’re liberating them, but all you’re doing is binding them further and stronger.” As Veera Bhadra struggles to find his place in all the happenings between life and death, unsure if his unfathomable strength was a gift or a curse, he meets Karthik—his answer. *** “Mom, why do I like to fight so much?” “People like many things. Some like drawing. Some like dancing. And you like fighting.” Young Karthik did not seem to be satisfied with the response. “You are not listening to me, mom. I like to fight so so so much more than others. So much more than anyone likes to dance. I don’t want to do anything else.” “So, do it. What’s the problem?” “There is no problem. I just don’t know why I love fighting so much.” As Karthik struggles to find his place in all the wins and death, unsure where his unexplainable passion will lead, he meets Veera Bhadra—his answer. Two lives. Different destinies. One epic encounter.
Book Synopsis Días de lluvia by : Montserrat Lunati
Download or read book Días de lluvia written by Montserrat Lunati and published by Aris and Phillips Hispanic Cla. This book was released on 2018 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Writers, publishers, readers and scholars have stopped apologising for the short story: the genre is no longer a bad investment, a trial-exercise for a novel or a minor entertainment, as demonstrated by exceptional writers with an almost exclusive dedication to it, such as Jorge Luis Borges, Alice Munro, Quim Monzâo or Cristina Fernâandez Cubas. With deep roots in classic and medieval literatures, and great achievements in the nineteenth- and twentieth-centuries, the genre of the short story, which benefits from the linguistic tightness of poetry and the narrative comforts of the novel, has finally been recognised as having a (hybrid) identity of its own. This volume re-edits and expands a previous bilingual collection published in 1997. The first edition included stories by twelve writers: Pilar Cibreiro, Cristina Fernâandez Cubas, Paloma Dâiaz-Mas, Adelaida Garcâia Morales, Lourdes Ortiz, Laura Freixas, Marina Mayoral, Mercedes Abad, Rosa Montero, Maruja Torres, Soledad Puâertolas and Marâia Eugenia Salaverri. The present edition adds another four: Nuria Amat, Juana Salabert, Luisa Castro and Berta Marsâe. The stories gathered in this second edition were written between 1980 and 2010, and testify to the richness and vitality of women’s writing in contemporary Spain. With the original texts in Spanish as well as facing-page English translations, an Introduction, notes, and bio-bibliographical information on each author, this volume is a useful tool for students of the Spanish language and culture at all levels. It includes a selection of secondary reading on Spanish women writers and a selection of anthologies of Spanish short stories since 1997"--
