Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Political Shame of Mexico In this book are described many occurrences which the writer saw and the characters and acts of many persons whom he know more or less intimately. The knowledge which came through direct observation was supplemented, while it was being acquired and afterwards, by very fortunate investigations undertaken in the banning as a business necessity. During the time when the responsibility for Mexico was so securely fastened upon the United States that it could not be shaken off, the author of this volume was most favorably situated for the acquirement of information - and by that word is meant the core and not the rind. The distinction is vitally important, for in Mexico things are never what they seem. This general truth seems there to have a particular manifestation, for though Mexico is next neighbor to the United States, the government at Washington, if one may judge by its acts, has seen on the far side of the Rio Grande nothing but a series of illusions many of them artificially produced in a manner which I have here attempted to describe. It may be asserted with confidence that the mere outward and visible story of Mexico, a record of what happened on the surface from the last days of Diaz to the most recent incident of American interference, would puzzle rather than enlighten the usual reader, even though inaccurately told.

THE POLITICAL SHAME OF MEXICO CHAPTER I IN order to justify the text that in Mexico things are never what they seem, let us cite an instance very conspicuous. This will necessitate glancing back a little way, four years or thereabouts, along the panorama of that country's recent history. So glancing, the observer's eye is naturally attracted to a brilliant spot, in a physical sense surely the best lighted scene of Mexico's drama. The reference is to the great Diaz celebration with its myriad lamps. There we shall come upon a clue which will lead us to the end of the story, out of the brilliance into the shadow, and through paths exceedingly obscure, hopelessly difficult for those that have no guide. The centenary of Mexico's independence was celebrated in September, that dazzling September of 1910. For the entire month the "asphalt section" of Mexico's capital was cleared of its twelve hundred beggars and dressed in its party clothes. Receptions, banquets, parades -- all the spectacular extravagances of a nation's festival -- filled the days and nights with obvious rejoicing. The most beautiful women from interior and coast cities and from the haciendas of the "hot country" were gathered in Mexico City and distributed like flowers to grace a thousand entertainments. Special envoys from all the great nations and most of the little ones of Europe, Asia, Africa and every variety of America -- torrid, temperate and frozen -- were present to participate in the events that marked the realization in Mexico of the fabled golden age, the season of prosperity and peace. Such honors as come only to the exalted were heaped upon Porfirio Diaz. He was "The Moses and Joshua of his people" by the phrase of Andrew Carnegie, "The prodigy of nature ..".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexican Problems The recent triumph of the Liberal or Popular Party in Mexico, after almost 4 years of struggle, presents a unique opportunity for the carrying of certain economic changes which will destroy forever the dangerous political power of those egotistical groups composed of big landowners, who up to now have maintained the working classes in a state of slavery and ignorance. It is only recently that the conspiracy of si lence in regard to the monopoly of the land, - the censurable policy of Porfirio Diaz and; of Huerta - was broken; and as there are still many educated people in the Mexican Federation who are not acquainted with the facts in the case, 1 shall dedicate this chapter to the his tory of the land.

Download or read book Political Anxiety in Golden Age Children's Classics and Their Contemporary Adaptations written by Jasmin Sültemeyer and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-07-05 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As striking, counter-intuitive and distasteful as the combination of children and anxiety may seem, some of the most popular children's classics abound in depictions of traumatic relationships, bloody wars and helpless heroes. This book draws on Freudian and Lacanian anxiety models to investigate the psychological and political significance of this curious juxtaposition, as it stands out in Golden Age novels from both sides of the Atlantic and their present-day adaptations. The stories discussed in detail, so the argument goes, identify specific anxieties and forms of anxiety management as integral elements of hegemonial middle-class identity. Apart from its audacious link between psychoanalysis and Marxist, feminist, as well as postcolonial ideology criticism, this study provides a nuanced analysis of the ways in which allegedly trivial texts negotiate questions of individual and (trans)national identities. In doing so, it offers a fresh look at beloved tales like Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz and Peter Pan, contributes to the dynamic field of adaptation studies and highlights the necessity to approach children's entertainment more seriously and more sensitively than it is generally the case.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twenty-second Munk Debate pits acclaimed journalist, professor, and ordained minister Michael Eric Dyson and New York Times columnist Michelle Goldberg against renowned actor and writer Stephen Fry and University of Toronto professor and author Jordan Peterson to debate the implications of political correctness and freedom of speech. Is political correctness an enemy of free speech, open debate, and the free exchange of ideas? Or, by confronting head-on the dominant power relationships and social norms that exclude marginalized groups are we creating a more equitable and just society? For some the argument is clear. Political correctness is stifling the free and open debate that fuels our democracy. It is also needlessly dividing one group from another and promoting social conflict. Others insist that creating public spaces and norms that give voice to previously marginalized groups broadens the scope of free speech. The drive towards inclusion over exclusion is essential to creating healthy, diverse societies in an era of rapid social change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gillian White argues that the poetry wars among critics and practitioners are shaped by “lyric shame”—an unspoken but pervasive embarrassment over what poetry is, should be, and fails to be. “Lyric” is less a specific genre than a way to project subjectivity onto poems—an idealized poem that is nowhere and yet everywhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As every one understands, our conflict with Mexico has been almost entirely eclipsed by the greater wars following it. But in the field of thought mere size does not count for much; and while the number of troops and the lists of casualties give the present subject little comparative importance, it has ample grounds for claiming attention. As a territorial stake New Mexico, Arizona and California were of immense value. National honor was involved, and not a few of the Mexicans thought their national existence imperilled. Some of the diplomatic questions were of the utmost difficulty and interest. The clash of North and South, American and Mexican, produced extraordinary lights and shades, and in both countries the politics that lay behind the military operations made a dramatic and continual by-play. The military conduct of the governments-especially our own-and the behavior of our troops on foreign soil afforded instruction worthy to be pondered.
