This book was released on 2005 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La figura del grabador mexicano Manuel Manilla se ha quedado durante mucho tiempo a la sombra de José Guadalupe Posada. Este libro, ricamente ilustrado, otorga a Manilla su lugar como artista por derecho propio, tanto por reunir un gran conjunto de sus obras por primera vez, como por su diseño que hace eco al conocido volumen de Mexican Folkways, que se dedicó a Posada en 1930. Los grabados de Manilla abren una vista a la vida teatral, las corridas de toros, las costumbres tradicionales y la pintoresca vida cotidiana de finales del siglo XIX en la Ciudad de México. El ensayo de Mercurio López que acompaña las imágenes es fruto de una nueva investigación acerca de Manilla y su entorno.
Book Synopsis A Sentimental Education for the Working Man by : Robert M. Buffington
Download or read book A Sentimental Education for the Working Man written by Robert M. Buffington and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2015-05-29 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Sentimental Education for the Working Man Robert Buffington reconstructs the complex, shifting, and contradictory ideas about working-class masculinity in early twentieth-century Mexico City. He argues that from 1900 to 1910, the capital’s satirical penny press provided working-class readers with alternative masculine scripts that were more realistic about their lives, more responsive to their concerns, and more representative of their culture than anything proposed by elite social reformers and Porfirian officials. The penny press shared elite concerns about the destructive vices of working-class men, and urged them to be devoted husbands, responsible citizens, and diligent workers; but it also used biting satire to recast negative portrayals of working-class masculinity and to overturn established social hierarchies. In this challenge to the "macho" stereotype of working-class Mexican men, Buffington shows how the penny press contributed to the formation of working-class consciousness, facilitated the imagining of a Mexican national community, and validated working-class men as modern citizens.

Book Synopsis Dimensions of the Americas by : Shifra M. Goldman
Download or read book Dimensions of the Americas written by Shifra M. Goldman and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents an overview of the social history of modern and contemporary Latin American and Latino art. This collection of thirty-three essays focuses on Latin American artists throughout Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean, and the United States. The author provides a chronology of modern Latin American art; a history of "social art history" in the United States; and synopses of recent theoretical and historical writings by major scholars from Mexico, Cuba, Brazil, Peru, Uruguay, Chile, and the United States. In her essays, she discusses a vast array of topics including: the influence of the Mexican muralists on the American continent; the political and artistic significance of poster art and printmaking in Cuba, Puerto Rico, and among Chicanos; the role of women artists such as Guatemalan painter Isabel Ruiz; and the increasingly important role of politics and multinational businesses in the art world of the 1970s and 1980s. She explores the reception of Latin American and Latino art in the United States, focusing on major historical exhibits as well as on exhibits by artists such as Chilean Alfredo Jaar and Argentinean Leandro Katz. Finally, she examines the significance of nationalist and ethnic themes in Latin American and Latino art.
Book Synopsis Soldaderas in the Mexican Military by : Elizabeth Salas
Download or read book Soldaderas in the Mexican Military written by Elizabeth Salas and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-04 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the evolving role of women soldiers in Mexico—as both fighters and cultural symbols—from the pre-Columbian era to the present. Since pre-Columbian times, soldiering has been a traditional life experience for innumerable women in Mexico. Yet the many names given these women warriors—heroines, camp followers, Amazons, coronelas, soldadas, soldaderas, and Adelitas—indicate their ambivalent position within Mexican society. In this original study, Elizabeth Salas challenges many traditional stereotypes, shedding new light on the significance of these women. Drawing on military archival data, anthropological studies, and oral history interviews, Salas first explores the real roles played by Mexican women in armed conflicts. She finds that most of the functions performed by women easily equate to those performed by revolutionaries and male soldiers in the quartermaster corps and regular ranks. She then turns her attention to the soldadera as a continuing symbol, examining the image of the soldadera in literature, corridos, art, music, and film. Salas finds that the fundamental realities of war link all Mexican women, regardless of time period, social class, or nom de guerre.

Book Synopsis Settling the Score by : Kathryn Kalinak
Download or read book Settling the Score written by Kathryn Kalinak and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1992-12-01 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the earliest experiments in musical accompaniment carried out in the Edison Laboratories, Kathryn Kalinak uses archival material to outline the history of American music and film. Focusing on the scores of several key composers of the sound era, including Erich Wolfgang Korngold’s Captain Blood, Max Steiner’s The Informer, Bernard Herrmann’s The Magnificent Ambersons, and David Raksin’s Laura, Kalinak concludes that classical scoring conventions were designed to ensure the dominance of narrative exposition. Her analyses of contemporary work such as John Williams’ The Empire Strikes Back and Basil Poledouris’ RoboCop demonstrate how the traditions of the classical era continue to influence scoring practices today.
