Book Synopsis Cuentos de terror y misterio by : Edgar Allan Poe
Download or read book Cuentos de terror y misterio written by Edgar Allan Poe and published by Siruela. This book was released on 2011-07-13 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El lado oscuro ha ejercido siempre un gran atractivo en los seres humanos. Es el lado del mal, pero también el lado de lo desconocido, de los espíritus, de los vampiros, de todo aquello que, en definitiva, nos sitúa en las fronteras de la muerte, territorio habitado por muertos vivientes o por espíritus errantes a la espera de su definitiva redención. Es a finales del siglo XVIII cuando lo siniestro deja ya de ser espacio para la fascinación, o ámbito propicio para ritos esotéricos en los que se conjuran el peligro que siempre nos acecha o se pacta con las fuerzas malignas, y pasa a ser tema literario y artístico en general. Nace entonces un género literario propio centrado en relatos que ahondan en seres de ultratumba, en vampiros y personajes que irrumpen en nuestra vida rompiendo cualquier posible explicación científica, y que nos sitúa ante algo desconocido y aterrador. Los 8 relatos incluidos en esta selección nos invitan a dar un paseo por ese mundo, a dejarnos atraer por su inquietante fascinación y a dejar deambular nuestra imaginación por lugares y situaciones que forman parte de nuestros sueños y pesadillas cotidianas. Se cumple en ellos esa advertencia que aparece en muchas películas: «Cualquier parecido con la realidad…». O quizá no sea así, quizá son estos relatos precisamente los que, como toda gran obra de ficción, más nos acercan a los últimos parajes de la realidad.

Book Synopsis Translation in Anthologies and Collections (19th and 20th Centuries) by : Teresa Seruya
Download or read book Translation in Anthologies and Collections (19th and 20th Centuries) written by Teresa Seruya and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2013-08-29 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the numerous discursive carriers through which translations come into being, are channeled and gain readership, translation anthologies and collections have so far received little attention among translation scholars: either they are let aside as almost ungraspable categories, astride editing and translating, mixing in most variable ways authors, genres, languages or cultures, or are taken as convenient but rather meaningless groupings of single translations. This volume takes a new stand, makes a plea to consider translation anthologies and collections at face value and offers an extensive discussion about the more salient aspects of translation anthologies and collections: their complex discursive properties, their manifold roles in canonization processes and in strategies of cultural censorship. It brings together translation scholars with different backgrounds, both theoretical and historical, and covering a wide array of European cultural areas and linguistic traditions. Of special interest for translation theoreticians and historians as well as for scholars in literary and cultural studies, comparative literature and transfer studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “propulsive and mesmerizing” (The New York Times) story collection by the International Booker–shortlisted author of The Dangers of Smoking in Bed and Our Share of Night—now with a new short story. The short stories of Mariana Enriquez are: “The most exciting discovery I’ve made in fiction for some time.”—Kazuo Ishiguro “Violent and cool, told in voices so lucid they feel spoken.”—The Boston Globe (Best Books of the Year) Electric, disturbing, and exhilarating, the stories of Things We Lost in the Fire explore multiple dimensions of life and death in contemporary Argentina. Each haunting tale simmers with the nation's troubled history, but among the abandoned houses, black magic, superstitions, lost loves and regrets, there is also friendship, compassion, and humor. Translated by the National Book Award-winning Megan McDowell, these “slim but phenomenal” (Vanity Fair) stories ask the biggest questions of life and show why Mariana Enriquez has become one of the most celebrated new voices in global literature.

Book excerpt: What would you do if you woke up and found yourself in a parallel universe under an alien sky? This is the question Zax Delatree must answer every time he closes his eyes.

Sometimes he wakes up in technological utopias, and other times in the bombed-out ruins of collapsed civilizations. All he has to live by are his wits and the small aides he has picked up along the way - technological advantages from techno-utopias, sedatives to escape dangerous worlds, and stimulants to extend his stay in pleasant ones. Thankfully, Zax isn't always alone. He can take people with him, if they're unconscious in his arms when he falls asleep. But someone unwelcome is on his tail, and they are after something that Zax cannot spare - the blood running through his veins, the power to travel through worlds...

Book Synopsis A Specter is Haunting Europe by : José B. Monleón
Download or read book A Specter is Haunting Europe written by José B. Monleón and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Departing from established structuralist or psychological approaches to the fantastic, Jos Monlecn offers an ideological reading of this literary product of mass culture. In an exploration of the origins and development of the fantastic, Monlecn traces the relation of reason to unreason in light of three distinct events that influenced capitalist thinking: the French Revolution, the uprisings of 1848, and the Bolshevik Revolution. The fantastic, Monlecn argues, reflected social tensions and produced a cultural space in which to appropriate fears brought on by the revolutions--to tame the "specter" mentioned by Marx and Engels in The Communist Manifesto. At the same time the fantastic helped carve in Europe a defense of order through the introduction of unreason as a viable discourse. Monlecn pays particular attention to the development of the fantastic in Spain, whose unique economic and cultural conditions form a distinct background against which to test his paradigm for the development of the genre in the rest of Europe. This study touches upon a wide range of works, including those by Bcquer, BazNBn, Galdcs, Alarccn, Maupassant, Shelley, Poe, and James, as well as etchings by Goya. Originally published in 1990. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
