Book Synopsis The Bodies of Others by : José A. Sánchez
Download or read book The Bodies of Others written by José A. Sánchez and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-02-24 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available in English for the first time, The Bodies of Others investigates, through a series of close readings of several theatrical and film productions in Europe and South America, the relationship between “representation” (including theatrical representation) and ethics (defined as an ongoing relational negotiation, as opposed to a set of universal moral laws). The main concepts are exposed through a comparative analysis of historical processes, political actions and artistic works from different periods. Thus, the dialogue between the film La carrose d'or by Jean Renoir (1952) and Rosa Cuchillo by Yuyachkani (2006) serves to address the problem of the multiple meanings of representation. The dialogue between the play El Señor Galíndez by Eduardo Pavlovsky (1973), the performance The Conquest of America by Las Yeguas del Apocalipsis (1989) and the novel 2666 (2004) by Roberto Bolaño allows the concept of an 'ethic of the body' to be addressed. Other key concepts such as identity, care, cruelty, violence, memory and testimony are considered through investigation of work such as Angelica Liddel's theatre pieces, Rabih Mroué and Lina Majdalanie's performances, Albertina Carri, Basilio Martín Patino and Apichatpong Weerasethakul's films, and Mapa Teatro's trans-disciplinary creations.

Download or read book Libre Acceso written by Susan Antebi and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2015-12-02 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Libre Acceso stages an innovative encounter between disciplines that have remained quite separate: Latin American literary, film, and cultural studies and disability studies. It offers a much-needed framework to engage the representation, construction, embodiment, and contestation of human differences, and provides tools for the urgent resignification of a robust and diverse Latin American literary and filmic tradition. The contributors discuss such topics as impairment, trauma, illness and the body, performance, queer theory, subaltern studies, and human rights, while analyzing literature and film from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Mexico, and Peru. They explore these issues through the work of canonical figures Jorge Luis Borges, Gabriel García Márquez, João Guimarães Rosa, and others, as well as less well-known figures, including Mario Bellatin and Miriam Alves.

Book excerpt: Contested Identities in Costa Rica explores the concept of national identity within the paradigm of the dominant image of the traditional and idealised tico.

Book Synopsis Visual Disobedience by : Kency Cornejo
Download or read book Visual Disobedience written by Kency Cornejo and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2024-07-12 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Visual Disobedience, Kency Cornejo traces the emergence of new artistic strategies for Indigenous, feminist, and anticarceral resistance in the wake of torture, disappearance, killings, and US-funded civil wars in Central America. Cornejo reveals a direct line from US intervention to current forms of racial, economic, and gender injustice in the isthmus, connecting this to the criminalization and incarceration of migrants at the US-Mexico border today. Drawing on interviews with Central American artists and curators, she theorizes a form of “visual disobedience” in which art operates in opposition to nation-states, colonialism, and visual coloniality. She counters historical erasure by examining over eighty artworks and highlighting forty artists across the region. Cornejo also rejects the normalized image of the suffering Central American individual by repositioning artists as creative agents of their own realities. With this comprehensive exploration of contemporary Central American art, Cornejo highlights the role of visual disobedience as a strategy of decolonial aesthetics to expose and combat coloniality, heteropatriarchy, white supremacy, empire, and other systems of oppression.
Download or read book Redes sin causa written by Lovink, Geert and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-12-20 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Con la gran mayoría de los usuarios de Facebook atrapados en un frenesí de friending, liking y commenting, ¿en qué momento podemos desconectar para comprender las consecuencias de nuestras infosaturadas vidas? ¿Qué nos obliga a participar tan diligentemente con los sistemas de redes sociales? Redes sin causa examina nuestra obsesión colectiva con la identidad y la autogestión, junto con la fragmentación y la información de sobrecarga endémica de la cultura contemporánea en línea.Con escasez de teoría sobre las consecuencias sociales y culturales de los servicios en línea más populares, Lovink ofrece un análisis crítico pionero de nuestro sobrevalorado mundo en red a partir de estudios de casos en los motores de búsqueda, video online, blogging, radio digital, activismo en los media y la saga de Wikileaks. Este libro ofrece un poderoso mensaje a profesionales de los medios y a los teóricos: colectivamente vamos a dar rienda suelta a nuestra capacidad crítica para influir en el diseño de la tecnología y en los espacios de trabajo, si no queremos desaparecer en la nube. Incisivo pero nunca pesimista, Lovink, partiendo de su larga experiencia en la investigación de medios de comunicación, nos ofrece una crítica de las estructuras políticas y poderes conceptuales incluidos en las tecnologías que dan forma a nuestra vida cotidiana.

Book Synopsis Ideology, Politics and Demands in Spanish Language, Literature and Film by : Teresa Fernandez Ulloa
Download or read book Ideology, Politics and Demands in Spanish Language, Literature and Film written by Teresa Fernandez Ulloa and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprises various chapters which explore a variety of topics related to the manner in which ideological and epistemological changes in the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries shaped the Spanish language, literature, and film, among other forms of expression, in both Spain and Latin America, and how these media served the purpose of spreading ideas and demands. There are articles on ideological representations of linguistic differences and sameness; linguistic changes associated with loan words and the ideas they bring in modifying our communicative landscape; the role of the Catholic religion on the construction of our dictionary; analysis of some political discourses, ideologies and social imaginaries; new visions of old literature (a return to the parody in the Middle Ages to analyze its moderness) and postmodern narrative; discussions on contemporary Spanish poetry and Central American literature; a new return to the liberation philosophy by analyzing Ellacuría´s work; and several studies about concepts such as capitalism, patriarchy, identity, masculinity, homosexuality, globalization, and the Resistence in several forms of expression.
Download or read book Lo Posthumano written by Rosi Braidoti and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuestra segunda vida en el mundo digital, la comida genéticamente modificada, las prótesis de nueva generación y las tecnologías reproductivas son aspectos ya familiares de la condición posthumana. Ya que se han borrado las fronteras entre aquello que es humano y aquello que no lo es, poniendo en evidencia la base no natural del ser humano actual. Desde el punto de vista de la Filosofía y la Teoría Política, urge actualizar las definiciones de identidad y los fenómenos sociales a raíz de este salto. Con un simple análisis se verá que después de haber constatado el fin del Humanismo, es preciso ver en esta transformación las malas intenciones de una colonización de la vida por parte de los mercados y su lógica del beneficio. Es preciso, pues, adecuar la teoría a los cambios en curso, sin añoranzas por una humanidad ahora perdida y cogiendo las oportunidades ofrecidas por las formas de Neohumanismo que nacen de los movimientos medio ambientales y de los Estudios de Género y Postcoloniales.
Download or read book Pay written by Mark Smith and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2006 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide aims to provide practical tools to non specialists-essentially water resources planners, river basin managers, non-governmental organizations and private sector operators. It links the most recent practice on payments for hydrological services to current discourse on integrated water resources management and looks into the different aspects to consider when exploring the potential feasibility of establishing reward or payments for ecosystem services related to water security. Pay demystifies concepts and jargon, and through a series of tools, case studies and stories from around the world, describes pitfalls to avoid and provides hints to fill gaps in knowledge. It is based on a demand-driven approach, linking text, tools and illustrations to key questions emerging from current and potential practitioners.

Book Synopsis Retrato de un hombre libre by : Agustín García Simón
Download or read book Retrato de un hombre libre written by Agustín García Simón and published by Editorial Renacimiento. This book was released on 2013-01-14 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La tradición cultural que alimentó a los grandes maestros en las aulas de institutos y universidades españolas se ha ido extinguiendo en los últimos años, como acervo incompatible con una sociedad que niega o, simplemente, ignora la entrega callada y sabia de los viejos profesores. El ruido mediático, la velocidad y vértigo de nuestro tiempo, han arrumbado vidas y trayectorias dedicadas por vocación y pasión al saber y su transmisión, como concepto inseparable del conocimiento, la ética y el civismo. Hay que retroceder a las postrimerías del siglo pasado para encontrar los últimos eslabones sueltos de lo que antaño fue una cadena brillante y sólida de pedagogía humanística y crítica, que unía sabiduría y vida como ejemplo y método de enseñanza. Es el caso de don Santiago de los Mozos, catedrático de las universidades de Granada y Valladolid en la segunda mitad del siglo XX, protagonista de este Retrato de un hombre libre; retrato intelectual, en efecto, de uno de los maestros españoles más desconocidos y, a la vez, más fascinantes del espectro universitario español contemporáneo. Su porte institucionista, aunque nunca pasó por la Institución Libre de Enseñanza, su temple maireniano, su ideario ilustrado que expresaba una inteligencia excepcional y un don de la palabra que le hicieron justamente célebre en su medio, van revelándose en esta obra a través de un agudo diálogo entre el autor y el maestro, hasta conformar un atractivo ensayo, intenso y apasionado, sobre la historia y cultura españolas en sus claves más importantes, y en sus demonios característicos y redivivos. Un retrato espléndido que desprende por doquier la natural grandeza del maestro, cuya lección ilumina con finísima ironía la España democrática que va de la Transición al año 2000. Agustín García Simón (Montemayor –Valladolid–, 1953). Editor, escritor y periodista, ha dedicado su vida profesional a la cultura del libro, aunque sigue atento a la actualidad en sus colaboraciones en distintos medios periodísticos. En los últimos treinta años ha dirigido la edición de cientos de libros, seis de los cuales han merecido premios nacionales a los libros mejor editados. Su inclinación por la historia y el humanismo le han llevado a una exigente labor editorial en la que han primado los temas y figuras más abiertos y universales de la cultura y lengua españolas de naturaleza castellana. Entre sus grandes obras como editor destacan: Historia de una Cultura (4 vols.), 1995-1996; Historia de la Ciencia y de la Técnica en la Corona de Castilla (4 vols.), 2002; o la recuperación histórica de los Viajes de extranjeros por España y Portugal (6 vols.), 1999, de don José García Mercadal. Ha publicado ensayos sobre viajes y viajeros extranjeros por España, pero como autor es conocido, fundamentalmente, por el libro que dedicó al retiro del emperador Carlos V: El ocaso del emperador. Carlos V en Yuste (1995). Como narrador se dio a conocer con una singular novela: Valcarlos (Premio Miguel Delibes de narrativa, 2005); y, sobre todo, con los doce relatos que reunió en su última obra: Cuando leas esta carta, yo habré muerto (2009).

Book Synopsis Handbook of International Feminisms by : Alexandra Rutherford
Download or read book Handbook of International Feminisms written by Alexandra Rutherford and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-08-23 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of Handbook of International Perspectives on Feminism is to present the histories, status, and contours of feminist research and practice in their respective regional and/or national contexts. The editors have invited researchers who are doing this work to present their perspectives on women, culture, and rights with the objective to illuminate the diverse forms that feminist psychological work takes around the world, and connect these forms with the unique positions and concerns of women in these regions. What does "feminist psychology" look like in Japan? In South Africa? In Sri Lanka? In Canada? In Brazil? How did it come to look this way? How do psychologists in these countries or regions, each with unique political, economic, and cultural histories, engage in feminist work in the societies in which they live? How do they employ the tools of "psychology" – broadly defined – to do this work, and what tensions and challenges have they faced?

Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Spanish Language Teaching: metodologías, contextos y recursos para la enseñanza del español L2, provides a comprehensive, state-of-the-art account of the main methodologies, contexts and resources in Spanish Language Teaching (SLT), a field that has experienced significant growth world-wide in recent decades and has consolidated as an autonomous discipline within Applied Linguistics.

It brings together the most recent research and offers a broad, multifaceted view of the discipline. Features include: Forty-four chapters offering an interdisciplinary overview of SLT written by over sixty renowned experts from around the world; Five broad sections that combine theoretical and practical components: Methodology; Language Skills; Formal and Grammatical Aspects; Sociocultural Aspects; and Tools and Resources; In-depth reflections on the practical aspects of Hispanic Linguistics and Spanish Language Teaching to further engage with new theoretical ideas and to understand how to tackle classroom-related matters; A consistent inner structure for each chapter with theoretical aspects, methodological guidelines, practical considerations, and valuable references for further reading; An array of teaching techniques, reflection questions, language samples, design of activities, and methodological guidelines throughout the volume. The Routledge Handbook of Spanish Language Teaching contributes to enriching the field by being an essential reference work and study material for specialists, researchers, language practitioners, and current and future educators. The book will be equally useful for people interested in curriculum design and graduate students willing to acquire a complete and up-to-date view of the field with immediate applicability to the teaching of the language.
