Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The sixteenth-century changes wrought by expansion of the Spanish empire into Peru shaped the ways of being a family in colonial Peru. Even as migration, race mixture, and transculturation took place, family members fulfilled obligations to one another by adapting custom to a changing world. Family began to shift when, from the moment of their arrival in 1532, Spaniards were joined with elite indigenous women in political marriage-like alliances. Almost immediately, a generation of mestizos was born that challenged the hierarchies of colonial society. In response, the Spanish Crown began to promote the marriage of these men and the travel of Spanish women to Peru to promote good customs and even serve as surrogate parents. Other reactions came from wives in Spain who, abandoned by husbands, sought assistance to fulfill family duties. For indigenous families, the pressures of colonialism prompted migration to cities. By mid-century, the increase of Spanish migration to Peru changed the social landscape, but did not halt mixed-race marriages. The book posits that late sixteenth-century cities, specifically Lima and Arequipa, were host to indigenous and Spanish families but also to numerous 'blended' families borne of a process of mestizaje. In its final chapter, the legacies for the next generation reveal how Spanish fathers sometimes challenged law with custom and sentiment to establish inheritance plans for their children. By tracing family obligations connecting Peru and Spain through dowries, bequests, legal powers, and letters, Transatlantic Obligations presents a powerful call to rethink sixteenth-century definitions of family"--Provided by publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the Spanish victories over the Inca claimed Tawantinsuyu for Charles V in the 1530s, native Andeans undertook a series of perilous trips from Peru to the royal court in Spain. Ranging from an indigenous commoner entrusted with delivering birds of prey for courtly entertainment to an Inca prince who spent his days amid titles, pensions, and other royal favors, these sojourners were both exceptional and paradigmatic. Together, they shared a conviction that the sovereign's absolute authority would guarantee that justice would be done and service would receive its due reward. As they negotiated their claims with imperial officials, Amerindian peoples helped forge the connections that sustained the expanding Habsburg realm's imaginary and gave the modern global age its defining character. Andean Cosmopolitans recovers these travelers' dramatic experiences, while simultaneously highlighting their profound influences on the making and remaking of the colonial world. While Spain's American possessions became Spanish in many ways, the Andean travelers (in their cosmopolitan lives and journeys) also helped to shape Spain in the image and likeness of Peru. De la Puente brings remarkable insights to a narrative showing how previously unknown peoples and ideas created new power structures and institutions, as well as novel ways of being urban, Indian, elite, and subject. As indigenous people articulated and defended their own views regarding the legal and political character of the "Republic of the Indians," they became state-builders of a special kind, cocreating the colonial order.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuando la tranquilidad se torna dominante y mi entorno fecundo, estalla con voz armoniosa y envolvente la nostalgia. Entonces llega la musa como sol naciente. Y de mi pluma brotan versos que hacen del papel un gorrión que hará de su canto mi poesía. Pasa un día y otro día. Vuelvo a escuchar la triste voz que me pone en manos de la tristeza. Planto otros versos que se vuelven poesía. Así pasan los días. Así nacen las musas. Esta obra es la esencia nostálgica que brota del rincón de mi existencia, las que presento en versos los que quizás muchos ojos leerán y al hacerlo no verán, mas mi voz gritara aunque quizás no se oiga, tal vez porque soy la simple lagrima que comienza a recorrer a ciegas y en la oscuridad los senderos de una faz desconocida. En cada uno de estos poemas me encuentro, porque cada uno formo parte de mi ser en algún momento de mi vida y en algún instante de mi vida fueron mi vida en ese instante. Quiero con esta obra remover los sentimientos más ocultos y darles vida, haciendo sentir en ellos la eternidad del instante, dejando sentir vibrante las luces de cada verso, casi cegante, expuestos sobre papel, tal vez tímidos y temerosos de que los ojos no los miren y las almas no los sientan. Voz de la nostalgia, tal vez no sea más que la migración de mi vida a la muerte, hacia tristes pasiones posiblemente absurdas, ya que evaden las finalidades de los hombres; mi meta no es negar la felicidad ni omitirla, sino simplemente despertar esa sensibilidad que yace bajo la corteza ruda de los mas apesadumbrados seres, presentándoles aquella soledad que se ahoga en el silencio y nos hace sus víctimas, aquellos sentimientos que queman el alma y que han quemado el corazón de muchos hombres. Este sin número de voces son ecos del alma con los que comparto sentimientos ajenos y propios que deseo hacer latir en otros corazones.

Book excerpt: "De cualquier modo, se me era dado revertir todo este proceso, el mío, y aún sin la participación de mi adorada sobrina, iniciar un esbozo de momentos íntimos, pero que pudiera ir configurándose a pedacitos en un gran y completo mosaico de fervoroso acto de amor. Debo buscar (por mi propio y único esfuerzo) un rincón de bienestar y agradable delirio en que Rosa Blanca pudiera participar entre la medianoche que ya se fue y las dispersas brumas que arriban desde las colinas de Hostalric, y que este delirio fuera no simplemente testigo, sino actor en este encuentro entre mi cuerpo erizado de reverberante deseo, y el de ella, incólume aún a las turbulencias que ha desatado en mí... Y ya no la nombro al azar o por rigurosas circunstancias de los verbos, y por ello, digo con oculto regocijo "adorada sobrina", como si tuviera derecho a desbaratar las burdas etiquetas y tabúes impuestos por la ignorancia de los tiempos...De cualquier manera, se me es dado crear ¿qué?, ¿un mundo ficticio en que Rosa Blanca y yo fuéramos un solo cuerpo, una carne dentro de la otra, el vaivén sinuoso del acto que penetra dentro de nosotros?"

Download or read book Spanish Poetry of the Grupo Poético de 1927 written by Geoffrey Connell and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-17 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish Poetry of the Grupo Poético de 1927 is an anthology of poems by members of Grupo Poético de 1927, an association of poets who sought to detach poetry from non-poetic elements such as narrative, anecdote, political or social preoccupations, or didacticism. Seven poets are represented: Pedro Salinas, Jorge Guillén, Gerardo Diego, Federico García Lorca, Vicente Aleixandre, Rafael Alberti, and Luis Cernuda. This text consists of eight chapters and begins with an introduction to changing trends in poetry in Spain between 1918 and the present. Biographical notes are included to show the effect (or lack of effect) of these movements on the individual poets. Movements such as ultraismo and maestria are discussed, along with the tercentenary of the death of Spanish poet Luis de Góngora, the crisis suffered by the Grupo, and late developments in the poets of the Grupo. The chapters that follow focus on the works of the Grupo poets. This book is written specifically for sixth-formers and undergraduates, as well as anyone with an interest in Spanish poetry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La mayor&í a de nosotros somos personas corrientes que tenemos d&í as buenos y d&í as malos. Nuestras vidas son radicalmente ordinarias y poco emocionantes. Eso significa que son la clase de vidas que a Dios le fascinan. Mientras que el mundo alaba la belleza, el poder y la riqueza, Dios oculta su gloria en lo simple, lo trivial, lo insensato, y act&ú a en personas, cosas y lugares sin ning&ú n esplendor.En nuestra é poca de adoraci&ó n a los influentes y de presunci&ó n virtual, esta es una forma novedosa, incluso transformadora, de entender a Dios y nuestro lugar en su creaci&ó n. Nos insta a apreciar una vida de sencillez, a amar a aquellos a los que el mundo ignora, a trabajar por la gloria de Dios antes que la nuestra. Y demuestra que Dios siempre ha sido el Se&ñ or de la cruz: un Salvador que esconde su gracia en lugares sin encanto ni gloria.Tu Dios es demasiado glorioso les recuerda a los lectores que, si bien una vida tranquila puede parecerle insulsa al mundo, Dios tiende a usar a las personas comunes y corrientes para llevar a cabo su labor m&á s importante.Al final de cada cap&í tulo, Chad Bird invita al lector a profundizar en la b&ú squeda de la vida fiel y ordinaria con preguntas de estudio para uso tanto personal como grupal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las historias e invenciones de Félix Muriel, de Rafael Dieste, se publicaron en Buenos Aires en 1943 y, ya entonces, pudo causar cierta sorpresa el hecho de que su autor, exiliado republicano, no se refiriera en ellas a la reciente guerra de España ni a sus consecuencias. Sin embargo, de modo subrepticio, la política estructura el texto y contribuye a construir la problemática unidad del libro -un libro que muchos llamaron "obra maestra" y que José Ramón Marra-López ha situado "al margen de toda posible clasificación". No para clasificarlo, sino para entender esa "marginalidad" y los motivos de su encanto está escrito este estudio, el primero dedicado en extenso específicamente al volumen y el primero que contempla con detenimiento el manuscrito autógrafo.

Download or read book Imageries of deception in Chilean novels of the 1990s written by Cecilia Ojeda and published by Edwin Mellen Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the New Chilean Narrative published in the historically significant decade of the 90s by a group of writers belonging to the Generation of the 80s. The analysis of selected texts by Ana Maria del Rio, Diamela Eltit, Guadalupe Santa Cruz, Jaime Collyer, Ramon Diaz Eterovic, Gonzalo Contreras, and Alberto Fuguet explores the literary strategies by which these writers present literary imageries of deception that question the post-dictatorial order in Chile. The concept of imageries of deception alludes to literary motifs that represent a critical view of a Chilean contemporary reality whose source can be traced to the Pinochet dictatorship and its ideological aftermath. The imageries of deception question the dominant myths that sustain Chilean post-dictatorial society, and remember the nation's ideological conflicts of the past three decades. As cultural spaces where memory resists the dominant will to deceptively erase the past, the narrative of the 90s reveals the enduring and debilitating impact of a dictatorship successfully disguised as the current neo-liberal democracy.
