Book Synopsis La Araña Negra by : Vicente Blasco Ibáñez
Download or read book La Araña Negra written by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez and published by LA CASE Books. This book was released on with total page 2702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La obra, compuesta de dos tomos, fue considerada una obra folletinesca (subgénero, que en Francia se conoció como feulleton-roman, en boga entre finales del siglo XIX y principios del siglo XX) probablemente para restarle importancia a la durísima crítica contra la Compañía de Jesús que esta obra contiene. Blasco Ibañez la escribió en su juventud, y más tarde la repudiaría, al no incluirla en sus Obras completas. Blasco Ibáñez dedicó gran parte de su tiempo al estudio de la Iglesia y su funcionamiento. Éste es el germen de la novela, en la cual se narra la historia de los Baselga, una familia noble de la España de comienzos del siglo XIX, íntimamente relacionada con los Jesuitas. En la novela, la Compañía de Jesús teje con infinita paciencia una tela de araña contra esta acaudalada familia con el fín de apropiarse de su fortuna. A lo largo de toda la novela se trata esta relación, analizando el comportamiento y funcionamiento de la Compañía de Jesús de una forma extensa.

Book excerpt: El Encanto, al igual que otros poblados del estado de Veracruz, se caracteriza por lo aberrante de su gente. Por un lado, quienes glorifican en público a Epifanio Martínez, en privado lo maldicen. Muchos quieren ser como él, pero aborrecen que su estirpe haya mantenido en perpetua desgracia al poblado. Nadie sabe con exactitud cuándo fue el día en que los pueblerinos quedaron a merced de tanta humillación. Lo perverso de su verdugo, confunde a la gente con la idea de que éste todo lo puede con el poder de su dinero, hasta que en el horizonte aparecen Gabino Domínguez y Gervasio García, provocando que el cacique viva sus peores días. Sin querer, el par de campesinos sufren con una experiencia que los horroriza de pies a cabeza en la derruida ex hacienda de El Encanto. A partir de ese momento, la vida en El Encanto ya no será la misma. Muchos, al igual que Gabino y Gervasio, creen que Epifanio tiene pactos con el demonio. Y el par de campesinos tienen razones de sobra para pensar así. Sin embargo, ambos se dan cuenta que el cacique no es el mito que todos creían. Así, poco a poco, Gabino y su inseparable amigo con la ayuda de la familia Ruvalcaba, descorren el velo que mantuvo por tanto tiempo postrado al poblado.

Book Synopsis The Language of the In-Between by : Erika Almenara
Download or read book The Language of the In-Between written by Erika Almenara and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2022-10-04 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often, the process of modern state formation is founded on the marginalization of certain groups, and Latin America is no exception. In The Language of the In-Between, Erika Almenara contends that literary production replicates this same process. Looking at marginalized communities in Chile and Peru, particularly writers who are travesti, trans, cuir/queer, and Indigenous, the author shows how these writers stake a claim for the liminal space that is neither one thing nor the other. This allows a freedom to expose oppression and to critique a national identity based on erasure. By employing a language of nonnormative gender and sexuality to dispute the state projects of modernity and modernization, the voice of the poor and racialized travesti evolves from powerlessness to become an agent of social transformation.
Book Synopsis The Garden Next Door by : José Donoso
Download or read book The Garden Next Door written by José Donoso and published by . This book was released on 1994-01 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Chilean writer named Julio and his wife, Gloria, are at a low point in their lives. Constantly bickering, the pair are beset by worries about money, their writing, and their son (who may or may not be plying the oldest profession in Marrakesh). When Julio's boyhood best friend, now a famous artist, lends the couple his luxurious Madrid apartment for the summer, it is an escape for both - but in particular for Julio, who fantasizes about the garden next door and the erotic life of the lovely young aristocratic woman who inhabits it. But Julio's life - and career - unravel In Madrid: he is rebuffed by a famous literary agent, Nuria Monclus, who detests him and his novel; his son's friend from Marrakesh moves in and causes havoc; and Gloria begins to drink. In the face of pitiless adversity, Julio's talent inexorably begins to fade. The garden next door, however, is also Gloria, who has been doing some creating of her own. It is this twist that transforms Donoso's brilliant satire of the writer's life into something even greater: a carefully crafted and bitteily comic meditation on gardens, deceit, and the nature of a writer's muse.

Book Synopsis Ancient Marbles in Naples in the Eighteenth Century by : Eloisa Dodero
Download or read book Ancient Marbles in Naples in the Eighteenth Century written by Eloisa Dodero and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-09-16 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ancient Marbles in Naples in the Eighteenth Century Eloisa Dodero aims at documenting the history of numerous private collections formed in Naples during the 18th century, with particular concern for the “Neapolitan marbles” and the circumstances of their dispersal. Research has thus made it possible to formulate a synthesis of the collecting dynamics of Naples in the 18th century, to define the interest of the great European collectors, especially British, in the antiquities of the city and its territory and to draw up a catalogue which for the first time brings together the nucleus of sculptures reported in the Neapolitan collections or coming from irregular excavations, most of which shared the destiny of dispersal, in some cases here traced in definitive fashion.
Book Synopsis The Archaeology of Colonialism by : Claire L. Lyons
Download or read book The Archaeology of Colonialism written by Claire L. Lyons and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2002 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Archaeology of Colonialism demonstrates how artifacts are not only the residue of social interaction but also instrumental in shaping identities and communities. Claire Lyons and John Papadopoulos summarize the complex issues addressed by this collection of essays. Four case studies illustrate the use of archaeological artifacts to reconstruct social structures. They include ceramic objects from Mesopotamian colonists in fourth-millennium Anatolia; the Greek influence on early Iberian sculpture and language; the influence of architecture on the West African coast; and settlements across Punic Sardinia that indicate the blending of cultures. The remaining essays look at the roles myth, ritual, and religion played in forming colonial identities. In particular, they discuss the cultural middle ground established among Greeks and Etruscans; clothing as an instrument of European colonialism in nineteenth-century Oceania; sixteenth-century Andean urban planning and kinship relations; and the Dutch East India Company settlement at the Cape of Good Hope.
