Download or read book Aquí and Allá written by Camilla Stevens and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquí and Allá: Transnational Dominican Theater and Performance explores how contemporary Dominican theater and performance artists portray a sense of collective belonging shaped by the transnational connections between the homeland and the diaspora. Through close readings of plays and performances produced in the Dominican Republic and the United States in dialogue with theories of theater and performance, migration theory, and literary, cultural, and historical studies, this book situates theater and performance in debates on Dominican history and culture and the impact of migration on the changing character of national identity from end of the twentieth century to the present. By addressing local audiences of island-based and diasporic Dominicans with stories of characters who are shaped by both places, the theatrical performances analyzed in this book operate as a democratizing force on conceptions of Dominican identity and challenge assumptions about citizenship and national belonging. Likewise, the artists’ bi-national perspectives and work methods challenge the paradigms that have traditionally framed Latin(o) American theater studies.

Book excerpt: Primera parte: St. Dean Ryan está a punto de dar el gran salto a la universidad, aunque aún no tiene claro si ese es el camino que quiere seguir. Las dudas sobre su futuro abordan su mente y dispondrá de tres meses para descubrirse a sí mismo y lo que quiere en la vida. Pero no cuenta con que, en el transcurso de ese verano, conocerá a alguien que cambiará para siempre su forma de ver el mundo, a los demás e incluso a sí mismo. Segunda parte: Norwalk Ryan vuelve a la ciudad y deberá enfrentarse a los fantasmas del pasado, a sus propios miedos y al momento que tanto temía antes de verano; pero esta vez no lo hará solo. La historia se complica y se retuerce hasta límites insospechados, provocando que tanto él como su entorno tengan que adaptarse a las nuevas situaciones que se presentan en sus vidas. Aquí y ahora es una intensa novela que describe los altibajos de determinadas relaciones con las que cualquiera puede sentirse identificado, adentrándose en los problemas que pueden surgir cuando el mundo que te rodea no está preparado para sentimientos tan poderosos. Es la suma de varias historias que se funden en una sola; el reflejo de lo que ocurre cuando los caprichos de la vida coinciden en darnos todo aquello que pedimos o en robarnos todo lo que dábamos por nuestro. Nada es por casualidad y sólo nosotros somos los dueños de nuestro destino.
Book Synopsis Colored Men and Hombres Aquí by : Michael A. Olivas
Download or read book Colored Men and Hombres Aquí written by Michael A. Olivas and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of ten essays commemorates the 50th anniversary of an important but almost forgotten U.S. Supreme court case, Hernandez v. Texas, 347 US 475 (1954), the major case involving Mexican Americans and jury selection, published just before Brown v. Board of Education in the 1954 Supreme Court reporter. This landmark case, the first to be tried by Mexican American lawyers before the U.S. Supreme Court, held that Mexican Americans were a discrete group for purposes of applying Equal Protection. Although the case was about discriminatory state jury selection and trial practices, it has been cited for many other civil rights precedents in the intervening 50 years. Even so, it has not been given the prominence it deserves, in part because it lives in the shadow of the more compelling Brown v. Board case. There had been earlier efforts to diversify juries, reaching back at least to the trial of Gregorio Cortez in 1901 and continuing with efforts by the legendary Oscar Zeta Acosta in Los Angeles in the 1960s. Even as recently as 2005 there has been clear evidence that Latino participation in the Texas jury system is still substantially unrepresentative of the growing population. But in a brief and shining moment in 1954, Mexican-American lawyers prevailed in a system that accorded their community no legal status and no respect. Through sheer tenacity, brilliance, and some luck, they showed that it is possible to tilt against windmills and slay the dragon. Edited and with an introduction by University of Houston law scholar Michael A. Olivas, Colored Men and Hombres Aqui is the first full-length book on this case. This volume contains the papers presented at the Hernandez at 50conference which took place in 2004 at the University of Houston Law Center and also contains source materials, trial briefs, and a chronology of the case.

Download or read book O que me trouxe até aqui written by Leonardo Libarino and published by Clube de Autores (managed). This book was released on 2017-02-28 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Um acidente pode destruir tudo, até mesmo uma história de amor. Você já parou pra pensar no que te trouxe até aqui? Quando você pensa nisso você se assusta com as milhares de possibilidades de coisas que poderia acontecer? Teoria do caos. Um simples “sim” ou “não” que você tivesse dito no passado poderia ter mudado toda a sua vida. Tudo que você conhece poderia estar diferente agora. Adam pensou nisso justamente no momento em que sua vida estava por um fio. Ele se lembrou de Eduardo e de como o conheceu, lembrou que sua vida estava virando de ponta cabeça e que Eduardo se tornou seu porto seguro. Seu amor. Adam tinha saído de um relacionamento com um final inesperado, isso o deixou mal. Seus amigos se tornam seu refúgio, a única coisa que o deixa feliz, mas não dura muito, pois o destino os separa. Adam fica sozinho, mas Eduardo entra na vida dele para mudar tudo. O jovem aprende muito com o novo companheiro, e sua vida depois disso não seria mais a mesma. Eduardo também trazia na bagagem muitas dores e problemas – problemas com os quais Adam talvez não seria capaz de lidar. E, como nem tudo são flores, os espinhos os machucam. A vidraça explode atrás dele. Os estilhaços voam pelo ar, vejo o carro se aproximar, é tão nítida a imagem, nem parece que acontece em milésimos de segundos. Será o meu fim? Eu pensei. Tem coisa mais esquisita que a vida? Em um momento você está vivo, feliz, rindo, ou até mesmo triste e, em questão de segundos, sua existência acaba. Tudo acaba como se não houvesse importância. Eu não sei se esse é o fim, mas eu sei como começou.

Book Synopsis Aquí Estamos-- --ya Nos Vamos by : Francisco J. Bustos
Download or read book Aquí Estamos-- --ya Nos Vamos written by Francisco J. Bustos and published by Michael Wickert. This book was released on 2006 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of poetry and prose that explores the unique relationship between people and the places they inhabit in the San Diego-Tijuana metropolitan area. Although the act of physically crossing the border is ever present, the San Ysidro Port of Entry is after all the most crossed border in the world, many other aspects compose the lives of border-dwellers. While food, music, and architecture mix the concrete world, language, mythology, and culture mix in the psyche and the soul of those who cross the line. This is a book which resides on the fence, split, yet more complete because it works to unify where others work diligently to divide.

Book Synopsis Fossilized Second Language Grammars by : Florencia Franceschina
Download or read book Fossilized Second Language Grammars written by Florencia Franceschina and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2005-12-22 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is a theoretical and empirical investigation into the mechanisms and causes of successful and unsuccessful adult second language acquisition.Couched within a generative framework, the study explores how a learner’s first language and the age at which they acquire their second language may contribute to the L2 knowledge that they can ultimately attain. The empirical study focuses on a group of very advanced L2 speakers, and through a series of tests aims to discover what underpins their near mastery of grammatical gender and other grammatical properties.The book explores an account of persistent selective divergence based on the idea that child and adult learners are fundamentally similar, except that in adults the L1 plays the role of a fairly rigid filter of the linguistic input. The impossibility of representing the new target language other than by using the building blocks of the previously established L1 is argued to be the main reason why near but not totally native like language representations are formed and become established in adult L2 learners.
