Download or read book [Colección del Nuevo Humanismo] Humanizar la tierra written by Silo and published by Virtual Ediciones. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanizar la Tiera es un conjunto de tres libros: el primero de ellos, La mirada interna, fue concluido en 1972 y corregido en 1988. El segundo, El paisaje interno, se terminó en 1981 y sufrió algunas modificaciones en 1988. Por último, El paisaje humano, fue redactado en 1988. Aun cuando son producciones distintas, se corresponden con tres momentos de un proceso de reflexión profunda. Esos momentos o etapas están puestos en una secuencia que se inicia en el mundo de los sueños y los símbolos, para ir emergiendo hacia los paisajes del mundo externo y humano. Se trata entonces de un recorrido, de un deslizamiento del punto de vista, que comienza en lo más íntimo y personal para concluir en una apertura hacia el mundo interpersonal, social e histórico. Según el autor, en el libro se destacan aquellos temas más generales, más amplios con los que debe enfrentarse cualquier persona a lo largo de su vida y la define como una obra de pensamiento sobre la vida humana, tratada en un estilo de prosa poética.

Book Synopsis [Colección del Nuevo Humanismo] Interpretaciones del Humanismo by : Salvatore Puledda
Download or read book [Colección del Nuevo Humanismo] Interpretaciones del Humanismo written by Salvatore Puledda and published by Virtual Ediciones. This book was released on 2020-04-20 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interpretaciones del Humanismo es un estudio referido a los distintos modos en que el concepto de humanismo ha sido entendido en Occidente a partir del Renacimiento. No se trata de un estudio histórico-filosófico de tipo académico sino de un intentento por reconstruir, en un lenguaje lo mas simple posible, las imágenes del ser humano que se han impuesto en nuestra civilización, así como las principales ideas sobre "naturaleza" o "esencia" humana. El libro describe en primer lugar la concepción del ser humano desarrollada en el Renacimiento y luego, aquellas que han ido presentando las corrientes filośoficas de nuestro siglo –de inspiración marxista, cristiana y existencialista– y que se declararon humanistas. El siglo XX, efectivamente, presencia humanismos conflictivos, ideas contrastantes sobre "naturaleza" humana, que tuvieron fuerte influencia en la esfera política. En el texto resuenan los ecos del gran debate sobre el humanismo que a fines de los años cuarenta involucró a personalidades de la estatura de Sartre y Heidegger, así como la polémica sobre el valor histórico del humanismo que propusieron durante los años setenta los estructuralistas y M. Foucault. El libro presenta también una descripción de de las nuevas concepciones filosóficas o políticas que han surgido en los últimos años, inscritas en el ámbito del humanismo. Entre ellas destaca la Perestroika puesta en marcha por el grupo dirigente soviético guiado por Mihail Gorbahöv y el Nuevo Humanismo fundado en los años sesenta por el pensador argentino Mario Rodríguez Cobos, conocido con el nombre de Silo. El libro comienza con un prólogo escrito por M. Gorbachöv "Una precondición para la sobrevivencia", en el cual el ex-presidente de la URSS plantea la necesidad de una "revolución humanista" para superar los tremendos peligros que amenazan a la humanidad y construir una nueva civilización planetaria que tenga como valor central al ser humano.

Book Synopsis The Long, Lingering Shadow by : Robert J. Cottrol
Download or read book The Long, Lingering Shadow written by Robert J. Cottrol and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students of American history know of the law’s critical role in systematizing a racial hierarchy in the United States. Showing that this history is best appreciated in a comparative perspective, The Long, Lingering Shadow looks at the parallel legal histories of race relations in the United States, Brazil, and Spanish America. Robert J. Cottrol takes the reader on a journey from the origins of New World slavery in colonial Latin America to current debates and litigation over affirmative action in Brazil and the United States, as well as contemporary struggles against racial discrimination and Afro-Latin invisibility in the Spanish-speaking nations of the hemisphere. Ranging across such topics as slavery, emancipation, scientific racism, immigration policies, racial classifications, and legal processes, Cottrol unravels a complex odyssey. By the eve of the Civil War, the U.S. slave system was rooted in a legal and cultural foundation of racial exclusion unmatched in the Western Hemisphere. That system’s legacy was later echoed in Jim Crow, the practice of legally mandated segregation. Jim Crow in turn caused leading Latin Americans to regard their nations as models of racial equality because their laws did not mandate racial discrimination— a belief that masked very real patterns of racism throughout the Americas. And yet, Cottrol says, if the United States has had a history of more-rigid racial exclusion, since the Second World War it has also had a more thorough civil rights revolution, with significant legal victories over racial discrimination. Cottrol explores this remarkable transformation and shows how it is now inspiring civil rights activists throughout the Americas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practice-as-Research: In Performance and Screen presents a thoroughgoing exploration of the major fissures of established knowledge created by a new trans-disciplinary, worldwide project for the twenty-first century. Focussing on the most fleeting and yet pervasive practices of the performance and screen arts, it both documents and analyses the practical-theoretical integration of hands-on creative and scholarly methods of research. Through an innovative combination of manuscript, catalogue and digital multi-media formats, it aims to embody the principles of performance and screen practice-as-research in its structure and design – making book pages and DVD images mutually illuminating. With over fifty practitioner-researcher contributors, Practice-as-Research constitutes the most comprehensive presentation of this sometimes controversial and frequently fresh way of doing things with an imaginative convergence of artistic and scholarly processes.

Book Synopsis Cold War Spy Stories from Eastern Europe by : Valentina Glajar
Download or read book Cold War Spy Stories from Eastern Europe written by Valentina Glajar and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2019-08-01 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Cold War, stories of espionage became popular on both sides of the Iron Curtain, capturing the imagination of readers and filmgoers alike as secret police quietly engaged in surveillance under the shroud of impenetrable secrecy. And curiously, in the post-Cold War period there are no signs of this enthusiasm diminishing. The opening of secret police archives in many Eastern European countries has provided the opportunity to excavate and narrate for the first time forgotten spy stories. Cold War Spy Stories from Eastern Europe brings together a wide range of accounts compiled from the East German Stasi, the Romanian Securitate, and the Ukrainian KGB files. The stories are a complex amalgam of fact and fiction, history and imagination, past and present. These stories of collusion and complicity, betrayal and treason, right and wrong, and good and evil cast surprising new light on the question of Cold War certainties and divides.

Book Synopsis Spanish Music in the Twentieth Century by : Tomás Marco
Download or read book Spanish Music in the Twentieth Century written by Tomás Marco and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the exhilarating impact of Isaac Albeniz at the beginning of the century to today's complex and adventurous avant-garde, this complete interpretive history introduces twentieth-century Spanish music to English-speaking readers. With graceful authority, Tomas Marco, award-winning composer, critic, and bright light of Spanish music since the 1960s, covers the entire spectrum of composers and their works: trends and movements, critical and popular reception, national institutions, influences from Europe and beyond, and the effect of such historic events as the Spanish Civil War and the death of Franco. Marco's penetrating aesthetic critiques are threaded throughout each phase of this rich account. Marco provides detailed coverage of the key figures, induding a chapter devoted entirely to Manuel de Falla--Spain's most celebrated twentieth-century composer--and a panoramic survey of recent arrivals on the contemporary music scene. Exploring the rise and fall of the zarzuela, the author highlights innovative works in this authentic Spanish genre. He analyzes the attempts to find an audience for Spanish opera; demonstrates the flowering of symphonic and chamber music at the beginning of this century; traces currents such as romanticism, impressionism, and neoclassicism; and tracks the influence of Spain's distinctive regional folk traditions. Covering musical innovation after Spain's emergence from its period of isolation, Marco notes the speed with which many composers absorbed the work of Stravinsky and Bartok, the twelve-tone system, aleatory forms, electronic techniques, and other European developments. English-speaking scholars, musicians, critics and general readers have for decades been without full information on the rich and varied work coming out of Spain in this century. This lively history fills a long-felt need and fills it superbly, with the knowledge and insights of a major figure in the musical world.

Book excerpt: The city is not only built of towers of steel and glass; it is a product of culture. It plays an especially important role in Latin America, where urban areas hold a near-monopoly on resources and are home to an expanding population. The essays in this collection assert that women's views of the city are unique and revealing. For the first time, Unfolding the City addresses issues of gender and the urban in literature--particularly lesser-known works of literature--written by Latin American women from Mexico City, Santiago, and Buenos Aires. The contributors propose new mappings of urban space; interpret race and class dynamics; and describe Latin American urban centers in the context of globalization. Contributors: Debra A.

Book Synopsis The Future of Development by : Gustavo Esteva
Download or read book The Future of Development written by Gustavo Esteva and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2013-10-09 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On January 20, 1949 US President Harry S. Truman officially opened the era of development. On that day, over one half of the people of the world were defined as "underdeveloped" and they have stayed that way ever since. This book explains the origins of development and underdevelopment and shows how poorly we understand these two terms. It offers a new vision for development, demystifying the statistics that international organizations use to measure development and introducing the alternative concept of buen vivir: the state of living well. The authors argue that it is possible for everyone on the planet to live well, but only if we learn to live as communities rather than as individuals and to nurture our respective commons. Scholars and students of global development studies are well-aware that development is a difficult concept. This thought-provoking book offers them advice for the future of development studies and hope for the future of humankind.
