Download or read book Ask a Mexican written by Gustavo Arellano and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-04-22 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DEAR MEXICAN: WHAT IS ASK A MEXICAN ? Questions and answers about our spiciest Americans. I explore the clich s of lowriders, busboys, and housekeepers; drunks and scoundrels; heroes and celebrities; and most important, millions upon millions of law-abiding, patriotic American citizens and their illegal-immigrant cousins who represent some $600 billion in economic power. WHY SHOULD I READ ASK A MEXICAN ? At 37 million strong (or 13 percent of the U.S. population), Latinos have become America's largest minority -- and beaners make up some two-thirds of that number. I confront the bogeymen of racism, xenophobia, and ignorance prompted by such demographic changes through answering questions put to me by readers of my Ask a Mexican column in California's OC Weekly. I challenge you to find a more entertaining way to immerse yourself in Mexican culture that doesn't involve a taco-and-enchilada combo. OKAY, WHY DO MEXICANS PARK THEIR CARS ON THE FRONT LAWN? Where do you want us to park them? The garage we rent out to a family of five? The backyard where we put up our recently immigrated cousins in tool-shack-cum-homes? The street with the red curbs recently approved by city planners? The driveway covered with construction materials for the latest expansion of la casa? The nearby school parking lot frequented by cholos on the prowl for a new radio? The lawn is the only spot Mexicans can park their cars without fear of break-ins, drunken crashes, or an unfortunate keying. Besides, what do you think protects us from drive-bys? The cops?
Book Synopsis Carlos Gardel- Volver ( to Return ) by : Frederica Pratter
Download or read book Carlos Gardel- Volver ( to Return ) written by Frederica Pratter and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-06-06 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CARLOS GARDEL "VOLVER" ("To Return") The Carlos Gardel story is told in 29 colorful chapters that are like scenes in a period movie set in the era of tango 1900-1935 in Buenos Aires, Barcelona, Madrid, Paris, and New York. It is dedicated to Carlos Gardel, "El Zorzal" (The Songbird of Buenos Aires) who for many of his admirers has become an almost quixotic obsession and who, to this day, is a charismatic hero as popular in Argentina as Evita Peron or Jesus. Out of poverty stricken, immigrant existence Carlos Gardel, the poor "Morocho Del Abasto" (Dark-Eyed Kid from Abasto) became South America's most charismatic interpreter of the tango-cancion, a wildly popular film star, and was crowned the Tango King in Paris in 1930. He was chosen to replace Rudolf Valentino for Paramount when he tragically died in a plane crash in Medellin, Colombia, 1935. This page turning, historic novel gives us new and sensational insight answering the many puzzling questions about the life of Gardel, his motivations, and his music. For example, why and how did the plane crash happen? His liaisons with women? His life long friendship with men? His role in creating the tango-cancion? His involvement with a rich older woman who financed his films? His acting career? And the tragic end as the words of the tangos "Volver" and "Mi Buenos Aires Querido" are fatefully fulfilled as the beloved Carlitos, after the plane crash, returns home to Buenos Aires in a coffin, and more than thirty thousand are in the streets during his funeral. "Mi Buenos Aires querido, cuando yo te vuelva a ver, no habra mas penas ni olvido." (My beloved Buenos Aires when I see you again I will feel no more pain or oblivion.) The riveting account of the life and death of the elusive Gardel is based on countless hours of research. The book also contains more than 30 translations of the most important tango-canciones, from lunfardo (slang of Buenos Aires), which are key to understanding the times and the milieu that created Tango Argentina and the tango-cancion. "It will snow in Buenos Aires before another Gardel is found!" "Cada dia canta mejor!"

Book Synopsis This Ghostly Poetry by : Daniel Aguirre-Otezia
Download or read book This Ghostly Poetry written by Daniel Aguirre-Otezia and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2020-04-02 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spanish Civil War was idealized as a poet’s war. The thousands of poems written about the conflict are memorable evidence of poetry’s high cultural and political value in those historical conditions. After Franco’s victory and the repression that followed, numerous Republican exiles relied on the symbolic agency of poetry to uphold a sense of national identity. Exilic poems are often read as claim-making narratives that fit national literary history. This Ghostly Poetry critiques this conventional understanding of literary history by arguing that exilic poems invite readers to seek continuity with a traumatic past just as they prevent their narrative articulation. The book uses the figure of the ghost to address temporal challenges to historical continuity brought about by memory, tracing the discordant, disruptive ways in which memory is interwoven with history in poems written in exile. Taking a novel approach to cultural memory, This Ghostly Poetry engages with literature, history, and politics while exploring issues of voice, time, representation, and disciplinarity.

Download or read book Musical Migrations written by F. Aparicio and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-01-03 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dynamic and original collection of essays on the transnational circulation and changing social meanings of Latin music across the Americas. The transcultural impact of Latin American musical forms in the United States calls for a deeper understanding of the shifting cultural meanings of music. Musical Migrations examines the tensions between the value of Latin popular music as a metaphor for national identity and its transnational meanings as it traverses national borders, geocultural spaces, audiences, and historical periods. The anthology analyzes, among others, the role of popular music in Caribbean diasporas in the United States and Europe, the trans-Caribbean identities of Salsa and reggae, the racial, cultural, and ethnic hybridity in rock across the Americas, and the tensions between tradition and modernity in Peruvian indigenous music, mariachi music in the United States, and in Trinidadian music.

Book Synopsis Impossible Returns by : Iraida H. Lopez
Download or read book Impossible Returns written by Iraida H. Lopez and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this one-of-a-kind volume, Iraida López explores various narratives of return by those who left Cuba as children or adolescents. Including memoirs, semi-autobiographical fiction, and visual arts, many of these accounts feature a physical arrival on the island while others depict a metaphorical or vicarious experience by means of fictional characters or childhood reminiscences. As two-way migration increases in the post-Cold War period, many of these narratives put to the test the boundaries of national identity. Through a critical reading of works by Cuban American artists and writers like María Brito, Ruth Behar, Carlos Eire, Cristina García, Ana Mendieta, Gustavo Pérez Firmat, Ernesto Pujol, Achy Obejas, and Ana Menéndez, López highlights the affective ties as well as the tensions underlying the relationship between returning subjects and their native country. Impossible Returns also looks at how Cubans still living on the island depict returning émigrés in their own narratives, addressing works by Jesús Díaz, Humberto Solás, Carlos Acosta, Nancy Alonso, Leonardo Padura, and others. Blurring the lines between disciplines and geographic borders, this book underscores the centrality of Cuba for its diaspora and bears implications for other countries with widespread populations in exile.
