Poeta en San Francisco

Poeta en San Francisco

Autor: Barbara Jane Reyes

Número de Páginas: 122

Poetry. Asian American Studies. POETA EN SAN FRANCISCO is the winner of the highly prestigious James Laughlin Award for 2005, awarded annually from the Academy of American Poetry and the only prize for a second book of poetry in the United States. Although Reyes' first book was not as widely known as the first book of many of the other eligible poets, the judges nevertheless courageously chose this risky, radical, and deserving second book put out by an energetic but very small publisher. Reyes received her undergraduate education at UC Berkeley, where she also served as Editor-in-Chief of the Filipino American literary publication Maganda. Her work has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize. Her first book, Gravities of Center, was published by Arkipelago Books (SF) in 2003.

Comunicación y política

Comunicación y política

Autor: Gilles Gauthier , André Gosselin , Jean Mouchon

Número de Páginas: 413

Aunque la mayor parte de las investigaciones de esta obra se refieren a la escala nacional de la comunicación política, algunas abordan también aspectos internacionales y locales. Los territorios de la comunicación política también pueden concebirse desde un punto de vista sectorial, analizando la comunicación gubernamental, la comunicación totalitaria, la comunicación presidencial o la comunicación política de las empresas. Las arenas de la comunicación política están constituidas por el conjunto de los dispositivos, las fórmulas, los marcos, las reglas y las estrategias que definen las situaciones de interacción en las que pueden confrontarse, difundirse públicamente y evaluarse los discursos de los actores políticos.

Aquí Estamos-- --ya Nos Vamos

Aquí Estamos-- --ya Nos Vamos

Autor: Francisco J. Bustos , Michael Cheno Wickert

Número de Páginas: 100

Francisco Bustos eloquently writes of Colonia Ruiz Cortinez and Barrio San Ysidro, waiting in la linea to be scrutinized by U.S. Customs officials, and of the bi-national journey of living both in the United States and Mxico. His melodic tone defies the fast-paced world of schedules, while being actively engaged in the moment, and then fleeting down another street to encounter another tale. As es la vida qu no?, Bustos says, As es. Michael Cheno Wickert focuses mainly on living in the barrios of Southeast San Diego where life often turns toward violence and suspicion is commonplace. It is a place where identities are shattered and reconfigured from the broken pieces into a kaleidoscope. It is a land of churches, liquor stores, and taco shops. It is where paint, blood, sweat, and salsa drip from the body and splat on weather-worn sidewalks to tell the stories of an America often ignored.

Panorama Social de América Latina 2014

Panorama Social de América Latina 2014

Autor: United Nations Economic Commission For Latin America And The Caribbean

Número de Páginas: 296

En esta edición de 2014 del Panorama Social de América Latina se presentan las mediciones de la CEPAL de la pobreza por ingresos y se analiza la pobreza desde una perspectiva multidimensional. La aplicación de estos dos enfoques a los datos sobre los países de la región permite reforzar la idea de que, más allá de los avances logrados en la última década, la pobreza persiste como un fenómeno estructural que caracteriza a la sociedad latinoamericana. Con el objeto de contribuir a un diseño más integral de las políticas públicas para superar la pobreza y la desigualdad socioeconómica, además de examinarse las tendencias recientes del gasto social se profundiza en el análisis de brechas en tres ámbitos: juventud y desarrollo, desigualdad de género en el mercado laboral y segregación residencial urbana.

Rosario Tijeras

Rosario Tijeras

Autor: Jorge Franco

Número de Páginas: 188

"Since they shot her at point-blank range while she was being kissed, she confused the pain of love with that of death." Rosario Tijeras is the violent, violated character at the center of Jorge Franco's study of contrasts, set in self-destructing 1980s Medellín. Her very name-evoking the rosary, and scissors-bespeaks her conflict as a woman who becomes a contract killer to insulate herself from the random violence of the streets. Then she is shot, gravely wounded, and the circle of contradiction is closed. From the corridors of the hospital where Rosario is fighting for her life, Antonio, the narrator, waits to learn if she will recover. Through him, we reconstruct the friendship between the two, her love story with Emilio, and her life as a hitwoman. Rosario Tijeras has been recognized as an admirable continuation of a literary subject that was first treated by Gabriel García Márquez and then by Fernando Vallejo. A work in the Latin American social realist tradition, Rosario Tijeras is told in fast and vibrant prose and with poetic flourish.

Dura

Dura

Autor: Myung Mi Kim

Número de Páginas: 120

Conceived as one poem, Myung Mi Kim's Dura is a whirling experimental symphony of images, forms and rhythms assembled and juxtaposed to translate the experience and gestures of the Korean immigrant woman surviving in America at the end of the twentieth century. Its language negotiates a past -- "How was it to be the first arrivals in rows and columns" -- as well as a present -- "A perceiver without a state", and has already gained Kim recognition as among the most moving and important "translators" in contemporary poetry.

Mestizaje in Ibero-America

Mestizaje in Ibero-America

Autor: Claudio Esteva-fabregat , Claudio Esteva Fabregat

Número de Páginas: 408

One of the most remarkable results of the arrival of Europeans in the New World may often be taken for granted: the emergence of the mestizo component in Latin American societies. The racial mixing that occurred in the Hispanic New World is the subject of this important study, which draws on a wide variety of historical, ethnographic, demographic, and biological sources to analyze processes of intermarriage, assimilation, and acculturation that continue in Latin America to the present day. Mestizaje in Ibero-America sheds new light on miscegenation and acculturation: their different levels and proportions in particular periods and in rural and urban areas, and the role of Spanish, Indian, and African women in the historical process of biological fusion. Although racial and cultural mixing usually coincided, Esteva observes that mestizos were often assimilated into Indian or Spanish society during the early colonial period and that acculturation without miscegenation sometimes occurred. He also shows that, contrary to the belief that "pure" Spanish blood was diluted in the New World, racial mixing and acculturation already existed in Iberia, facilitating its occurrence in America.

Alfredo Arreguín

Alfredo Arreguín

Autor: Alfredo Arreguín , Lauro Flores

Número de Páginas: 198

"Arreguín's palpitations of color and light and arrested movement awaken our sublimated vision. His paintings seem to force our entire being to experience its livingness as an insatiable yearning and questing of the eyes." - from the Foreword by Tess GallagherBorn in Mexico in 1935 and a resident of Washington State for nearly five decades, Alfredo Arreguín has long been recognized as a major force in pattern painting. His canvases are tapestries that mingle diverse and interpenetrating influences and images: the traditional crafts of his native Michoacán; the lush rainforests of his homeland and of the Pacific Northwest; Japanese ukiyo-e prints; sacred and endangered animals; gods and and totemic figures; icons like Frida Kahlo and César Chávez; and motifs including masks, eyes, and abstractly patterned tiles.But Arreguín's paintings, for all the apparent flatness of their surfaces, conceal an astonishing depth of perspective. The basis of their composition is a grid of colorful patterns applied to superimposed planes, and below the surface of each completed painting are many others, transformed by the artist's strategic occlusions and erasures. The result is an exuberant,...

¿Extranjero en tierra extraña?

Autor: Antonio Córdoba Cornejo

Número de Páginas: 332

La ciencia ficción se ha visto siempre como un género fuera de lugar en América Latina. No obstante, a través de la obra de autores como Jorge Luis Borges o Adolfo Bioy Casares, se ha podido establecer la existencia de afinidades fundamentales entre dicho género y las principales corrientes literarias en la historia cultural de la región, así como instaurar un modelo literario no sólo en Latinoamérica, sino en el resto del mundo.
