Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Niebla de Sortilegios retrata la extraordinaria travesía por la vida de una mujer con dotes naturales únicos, matizados por una gracia inusual, la que proyecta a su alrededor con magia intrínseca. Robertina cautiva a cuantas personas interactúan con ella, utilizando todo un arsenal de atributos que incluyen el humor, la fortaleza de espíritu, la lealtad, la generosidad, la fe y un sentido orgánico y profundo del amor. Desde muy joven, selectivamente se mide al estandarte moral y al carácter audaz de su madre adoptiva, su tía Romelia, y hurga en el trasfondo pernicioso de la ignorancia y el derroche desenfrenado de su padre adoptivo, Manuel Santana, para crecer en razón y juicio. Cuando su ineludible conformación anatómica de mujer la lleva instintivamente a desear una compañía de vida, una fuerza natural maravillosa la lleva a casarse con su propio hermano de crianza, con quien se sumerge en una tórrida fusión marital, hasta el día de su muerte. Aunque nunca ha ido a la escuela, Robertina es poseedora de una sabiduría insólita, con la que logra tejer su propio juicio en torno a temas tan complicados como el significado de la vida, de la muerte y el más allá. Concibe con independencia de criterio las enseñanzas de la Biblia, al punto de ser capaz de establecer sus propias interpretaciones sobre la figura histórica y apoteósica de Jesucristo. Su sabiduría innata la lleva a conjeturar muy locuazmente sobre derivaciones filosóficas muy inteligentes. Al caer súbitamente enferma con un cáncer devastador y violento, en Niebla de Sortilegios se narra como la vida de un ser humano surtida de gracia y buenaventura puede terminar en las trincheras del azar y la casualidad. Años después de su muerte su sarcófago termina siendo profanado y su cráneo robado, por estudiantes extranjeros de medicina. Aquel inesperado desenlace póstumo, deja a sus propios parientes inmersos en la fragua de una enmarañada trilogía conceptual: duda sobre la justeza de un ser divino, escepticismo sobre la existencia o no de una fuerza sobrenatural y resignación ante el poder descomunal del sentido arbitrario ubicuo de la vida.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After generations of being rendered virtually invisible by the US academy in critical anthologies and literary histories, writing by Latin Americans of African ancestry has become represented by a booming corpus of intellectual and critical investigation. This volume aims to provide an introduction to the literary worlds and perceptions of national culture and identity of authors from Spanish-America, Brazil, and uniquely, Equatorial Guinea, thus contextually connecting Africa to the history of Spanish colonization. The importance of Latin America literature to the discipline of African Diaspora studies is immeasurable, and this edited collection provides a ripe cultural context for critical comparative analysis among the vast geographies that encompass African and African Diaspora studies. Scholars in the area of African Diaspora Studies, Black Studies, Latin American Studies, and American literature will be able to utilize the eleven essays in this edition to enhance classroom instruction and further academic research.

Book excerpt: Pablo Neruda is one of the world's great poets, and Copper Canyon Press has long been dedicated to publishing translations of his work in bilingual editions. The Hands of Day--at long last translated into English in its entirety--pronounces Neruda's desire to take part in the great human making of the day. Moved by the guilt of never having worked with his hands, Neruda opens with the despairing confession, "Why did I not make a broom? / Why was I given hands at all?" The themes of hands and work grow in significance as Neruda celebrates the carpenters, longshoremen, blacksmiths, and bakers--those laborers he admires most--and shares his exuberant adoration for the earth and the people upon it. Yes, I am guilty of what I did not do, of what I did not sow, did not cut, did not measure, of never having rallied myself to populate lands, of having sustained myself in the deserts and of my voice speaking with the sand. Pablo Neruda (1904-1973) was a Chilean poet and diplomat who received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1971. Recognized during his life as "a people's poet," he is considered one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century. William O'Daly is the best-selling translator of six of Pablo Neruda's books, including The Book of Questions and The Sea and the Bells. His work as a translator has been featured on The Today Show.

This book was released on 1999-05-27 with total page 956 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La obra contiene, extractados, todos los libros de emblemas que se publicaron en español durante los siglos XVI y XVII. Se trata de un material de difícil acceso que de este modo se pone a disposición del lector, ya sea investigador o mero aficionado a la riquísima cultura simbólica cifrada en el género de la literatura emblemática. El libro se presenta en primera instancia como índice alfabético de los motivos iconográficos principales presentes en cada emblema. Pero, además, se podrá acceder a los emblemas mediante búsquedas realizadas a partir de los índices complementarios: de autores, lemas, fuentes y claves temáticas, aparte de los motivos iconográficos secundarios. Completa el volumen un glosario terminológico y de personajes que ayuda a la comprensión de los significados. El desarrollo de los estudios de emblemática en el ámbito internacional (existe una extensa Society for Emblem Studies) ha hecho aconsejable introducir traducción al inglés de los campos de información más relevantes. Y las ventajas que proporcionan las nuevas tecnologías han sido aprovechadas con la incorporación de un CD-ROM (ejecutable por igual en los sistemas Macintosh y PC) que agiliza la combinación de búsquedas complejas. Tanto el CD-ROM como el libro reproducen los grabados de los 1.732 emblemas estudiados.

Book excerpt: A reference guide to the vast array of art song literature and composers from Latin America, this book introduces the music of Latin America from a singer's perspective and provides a basis for research into the songs of this richly musical area of the world. The book is divided by country into 22 chapters, with each chapter containing an introductory essay on the music of the region, a catalog of art songs for that country, and a list of publishers. Some chapters include information on additional sources. Singers and teachers may use descriptive annotations (language, poet) or pedagogical annotations (range, tessitura) to determine which pieces are appropriate for their voices or programming needs, or those of their students. The guide will be a valuable resource for vocalists and researchers, however familiar they may be with this glorious repertoire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elcor Vincent Aragundi lived his career as a professional racing jockey, but as a native from Ecuador born in Quito, he was first inspired with poetry by his mother when he was still a boy. Between then and the moment he had grown, he began to write poetry in Spanish when he was still in school. He continued to write through the years even after he came to the United States back in March of 1954. Not knowing a word of English when he stepped off the plane in Florida, he ended up getting lost at a bus stop to eat. He returned unable to match the bus he was on with that of the number he held. The bus driver had unknowingly left without him. It took two hours before they could find someone that would translate. English has always been a huge struggle for him, though he desperately wanted to learn. It at times would leave him frustrated from the defied opportunities from his inability to communicate and adapt into the language. That was then; now a proud American citizen celebrating his fifty-fifth year in the United States, he is a renowned poet with trophies, medals, and merits awarded to him for his work, his passion, and his art. Recognized by the International Society of Poets in Owings Mills, Maryland, “A Flight in the Night” was published back in 2002 by the International Library of Poetry. He has been writing in English now for twenty-five years. With over a hundred poems written, half of them reside in Spanish, and the other half in English. His work is not only a milestone but an inspiration of the heart that proves yet that nothing can stand in the way of his love for poetry.

Book excerpt: A veces se siente como si la vida sólo estuviera ahí para patearnos al suelo, y luego patearnos más para mantenernos en el suelo, ¿no? John se pregunta por qué no puede simplemente hacer todo lo que quiera, como su mejor amigo Henry lo hace. ¿Es acaso solamente el hecho de que Henry es asquerosamente rico? ¿O hay algo más en ello? Cansado de lo que él percibe como un sin fin de pérdida de tiempo, John decide salirse de la escuela, y perseguir sus sueños. Cómo muchos antes que él, John quizás se hubiera rendido después de no ver resultados. ¿Honestamente? Lo más seguro es que se hubiera rendido. No obstante, un búho curioso, notable, y raro lo encuentra. Y es este encuentro el que lanza a John a una aventura increíble para averiguar por qué la vida apesta tanto.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mexican cinema has largely been overlooked by international film scholars because of a lack of English-language information and the fact that Spanish-language information was difficult to find and often out of date. This comprehensive filmography helps fill the need. Arranged by year of release and then by title, the filmography contains entries that include basic information (film and translated title, production company, genre, director, cast), a plot summary, and additional information about the film. Inclusion criteria: a film must be a Mexican production or co-production, feature length (one hour or more, silent films excepted), fictional (documentaries and compilation films are not included unless the topic relates to Mexican cinema; some docudramas and films with recreated or staged scenes are included), and theatrically released or intended for theatrical release.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story of a slave's unrequited love for the woman who possessed him is set in 19th-century colonial Cuba. It is the only known feminist and abolitionist novel published during the 19th century in Spain or its colonies. Sab is a pioneer novel in that it is not merely concerned with improving the treatment of slaves or putting an end to the trade in Africa; it is an impassioned declaration of human rights. This new annotated critical edition provides the original Spanish text, an authoritative English introduction, maps and tables which relate to 19th-century Cuba, and a vocabulary list.
