Robin Williams, American Master

Autor: Stephen Spignesi

Número de Páginas: 597

Did you know that, according to director Chris Columbus, Robin Williams improvised so much during the filming of Mrs. Doubtfire that the studio had enough footage to release PG, PG-13, R, and NC-17 versions of the movie? Or that Robin ad-libbed all his lines in Good Morning, Vietnam because the DJ the movie was based on didn’t really do comedy during his shows? Robin Williams, American Master looks at Robin’s seventy movies, from his earliest appearance in Can I Do It…’Til I Need Glasses? to his final posthumous voice-only appearance in Absolutely Anything. Each film is discussed in detail, with special emphasis on Robin’s performances and how they exist in the context of his entire body of work. Robin Williams, American Master is the perfect tour guide through Robin’s epic collection of cinematic genius.

THE EMPTY REGION

Autor: Mario Szichman

Número de Páginas: 216

The plot of The Empty Region takes the reader from the military camps of holy warriors in Pakistan, to the security corridors of the CIA and the FBI. It’s a fascinating puzzle inhabited by historical characters, including Osama bin Laden and George W. Bush, as well as officials aware of the tragedy´s secrets. Szichman leads us along the terminals where the air pirates of al-Qaida consummated their tragic ritual, makes us travel on the airplanes, turned into guided missiles, and recreates the 102 minutes when the burning towers of the World Trade Center became hell on earth. Although violence and destruction are the background of the novel, is the common citizen who is brought to the story´s foreground. Infused with glimpses of humor and irony, The Empty Region is also a love story, and a song of life, populated by unforgettable characters. “Szichman […] Has the accuracy of an entomologist, shows rhetorical display, scary emotion, poignant suspense. The narrative interest consists in the vertigo of the events and in the performances of their main character´s.” Fernando Rodríguez Lafuente (Cultural Suplement. ABC of Madrid)

Don Quixote: T.2.

Autor: Cervantes Saavedra de M.

Although the two parts are now published as a single work, Don Quixote, Part Two was a sequel published ten years after the original novel. While Part One was mostly farcical, the second half is more serious and philosophical about the theme of deception. Part Two of Don Quixote explores the concept of a character understanding that he is written about: an idea much explored in the 20th century.

Verdes colinas de africa (Spanish Edition)

Autor: Ernest Hemingway

Número de Páginas: 282

Una obra maestra del reportaje donde el Premio Nobel de Literatura Ernest Hemingway cuenta la estancia de un mes—diciembre de 1933—en África, dedicado a una de sus grandes pasiones: la caza mayor. La luz africana, el paisaje febril, la excitación y la tensión que produce la cinegética se convierten para Hemingway en motivos de reflexión que van mucho más allá del safari y la simple narración turística. Como siempre, Hemingway logra elevar la anécdota a la categoría de mito, explorar la condición del hombre a través de sus instintos más primarios y, en definitiva, indagar en torno a la eterna cuestión de la muerte, el deseo y la supervivencia.

Still reading Hegel: 200 years after the phenomenology of spirit

Autor: Edmundo Balsemão Pires

Número de Páginas: 270

Associando-se a um amplo movimento comemorativo europeu e norte-americano, o Instituto de Estudos Filosóficos, com sede na Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra, em colaboração com a unidade de I&D L.I.F. – Linguagem, Interpretação e Filosofia e com o “Centro de Filosofia” da Universidade de Lisboa organizou nos dias 19 e 20 de Novembro de 2007 um Congresso Internacional comemorativo dos 200 anos da Fenomenologia do Espírito de G. W. F. Hegel, obra publicada inicialmente em 1807. Por ocasião deste congresso, a comunidade filosófica portuguesa teve a grata oportunidade de se confrontar com algumas das mais recentes orientações de análise da obra do filósofo, pondo-se a si mesma à prova quanto às suas aptidões analíticas. Aqui se deixa o retrato de um tal encontro, tanto quanto possível fiel ao que foram, na altura, as exposições dos diferentes autores. In conjunction with a broad commemorative movement in Europe and America, the Institute for Philosophical Studies, based at the Faculty of Letters, University of Coimbra, in collaboration with the R&D unit L.I.F. – Language, Interpretation and Philosophy and with the “Centre for Philosophy” of...

Se analiza la relación de la obra poética y teatral de T.S. Eliot con la doctrina de San Juan de la Cruz expuesta en sus grandes tratados ascético-místicos y en su poesía. Esto nos revela afinidades que van más allá de lo que hasta ahora se había señalado entre la obra del carmelita y los Ariel Poems, Ash-Wednesday, Murder in the Cathedral, The Family Reunión...

The Wrong House

Autor: Esteban Burier

Número de Páginas: 170

“THE WRONG HOUSE” (Marielito; Exodus of Cubans in 1980) By Esteban Burier For all opponents of the Castro regime who went to comply with arbitrary sanctions; for those who were executed by the Castro regime; deprived of any defense, innocent of cases imposed by improvised courts; for those who were under the inclemency of the murderer Ernesto (Che) Guevara and so many other lap dogs of the dictator Fidel Castro; They are my deepest respect and admiration. They gave their lives with a shout of; Live Christ the King! Long live free Cuba! “THE WRONG HOUSE” Narrates the childhood of a boy that never thought twice to make a decision, committing many errors which took him, as consequence of punishment, to many juvenile reformatories and at last to jail, where he spent part of his life. The good education from his family did not influence on the boy, who does not divert from his delinquent path. A supernatural strength pushed him to these twisted paths to destroy and incarcerate him to where the stubborn are taken, to where you are subject to many tests and you can lose your dignity and also your manhood, depending on how weak or strong your personality is or if you allow to be...

The_sky_is_the_limit.epub

Autor: Karla Galván Duque Senosiain

Número de Páginas: 121

“The sky is the limit” is a little treasure. It’s not just a book on autism or on someone’s particular and extraordinary life experience, it’s also revealing and paradigmatic. Revealing because it helps us as human beings to understand that an advanced society must be committed and inclusive; whatever our circumstance, we are all people and at the same time we are all unique. Paradigmatic because I have never met anyone with such a determination to do her part in helping parents, families, therapists, and anyone willing to learn more about the way these children understand their particular world, which is our own as well. Karla is a woman who has given her life great value; she is a fighter that turns obstacles into great opportunities to grow and to love; this makes “The sky is the limit” a book about love, perseverance, strength, energy, self-motivation, optimism… and, why not say it as well, it’s a Coaching book, a totally 21st-century book!”

Reversible Monuments

Autor: Mónica de la Torre , Michael Wiegers

Número de Páginas: 520

Not since 1959 when Octavio Paz and Samuel Beckett published An Anthology of Mexican Poetry, has there been a collection which so thoroughly examines the poetry of the country known for being "too far from God and too close to the United States." Yet, as Elliott Weinberger writes in his introduction, "Americans know everything about God, but next to nothing about Mexico—few know that Mexico-particularly when compared to the United States-is a kind of paradise for poets." Reversible Monuments introduces this "paradise" to American readers. It includes major international writers like Alberto Blanco, Pura Lopez Colome, and David Huerta, as well as exciting younger poets, and poets whose work, while well-known in the Spanish-speaking world has not yet seen publication in English. The twenty-five poets represented are as diverse as their American counterparts: They are urban, educated, younger, well travelled, aware of their literary heritage, and include Buddhists, feminists, Jewish poets, experimental poets, darkly brooding poets, and playfully entertaining poets. Until the Poem Remains by Francisco Hernandez Strip away all the flesh until the poem remains with the sonorous...

Cultura territorial e innovación social

Autor: Nacima Baron , Joan Romero

Número de Páginas: 518

Este libro tiene como objetivo contribuir al estudio sobre los efectos socio-espaciales de la crisis y, en particular, a los estudios relativos a un «urbanismo de la austeridad» y a un urbanismo desterritorializado en las grandes ciudades españolas, teniendo en perspectiva otros espacios urbanos de países del norte del Mediterráneo. Pretende abordar estudios comparados de distintas dinámicas regionales y urbanas al tiempo que proponer escenarios de futuro y, desde esta perspectiva, el objetivo central es considerar la transformación de las espacialidades metropolitanas a la luz de una reflexión sobre las nuevas relaciones de poder y las recomposiciones que originan en materia de política pública y sus efectos sobre la cohesión y justicia territoriales.

Hamlet (edición bilingüe) (Los mejores clásicos)

Autor: William Shakespeare

Número de Páginas: 320

Los mejores libros jamás escritos «En este instante yo podría beber sangre caliente, y hacer cosas tan amargas, que el día temblaría de verlas.» En una gélida noche, tan funesta que el viento se vuelve mensajero de terribles presagios, Hamlet, Horacio y tres soldados se reúnen con el propósito de desentrañar el misterio en torno al espectro que ha aparecido en las últimas noches cerca del castillo. Solo hablará con Hamlet, pues esa criatura castigada a vagar por las tierras de Elsinor fue su padre, el último rey de Dinamarca. Su hermano Claudio le traicionó arrebatándole la vida, el trono y su reina. Un horrible crimen que reclama justicia. Frente al magnífico texto original presentamos la versión de Tomás Segovia, una de las más apreciadas en español. Asimismo, cuenta con una introducción a cargo de Alan Sinfield, catedrático emérito de literatura inglesa de la Universidad de Sussex. Edición bilingüe. Versión de Tomás Segovia.

Un montón de imágenes rotas

Autor: Ignacio García de Leániz Caprile

Número de Páginas: 156

No hay poema más enigmático, renombrado y oracular en la historia de la literatura que La tierra baldía de T. S. Eliot. Un siglo después, en su centenario, García de Leániz muestra la candente actualidad que el poema encierra en sus versos y el grado de cumplimiento de sus avisos y profecías. Sus principales temas —el desarraigo urbano, la cultura del olvido, la pérdida del sentido del ser, el daño ecológico y el problema de la redención del hombre y mujer actuales— apuntan de lleno a la encrucijada histórica en la que nos hallamos. Y nos sitúan en un estado de alerta sobre el destino crepuscular de Europa, la cultura occidental y el porvenir del humanismo clásico y cristiano. El libro supone una aproximación fecunda a la famosa obra considerándola como poema-candil que alumbra posibles salidas del laberinto de la modernidad terminal y sus imágenes rotas. Y constituye para nosotros un yacimiento de sentido cien años después para comprender mejor nuestra humana condición, el pasado y el presente, la memoria y el olvido, la desesperación y la esperanza, Dios y su ausencia.

JUST THE WAY IT WAS

Autor: Mario Ignacio Zunzunegui

Número de Páginas: 284

This book is a simple and humble gift, a present, a legacy of past life and love. It is a tale of many joys, laughs, and even laughter, as well as tears that sometimes came to be shed. It is a small present without any monetary or significant value of any commercial interest. Nevertheless, it is very exclusive because only the author can make this gift, because within the gift there are many experiences and anecdotes of a lifetime that only he is aware of. It is a gift that may one day be useful to dad or mom, when their son or daughter asks you to tell a story. Well, finally in decades to come, this dusty and forgotten old gift might have served for something useful. At the request of my great friend Mario Ignacio Zunzunegui, I allow myself to review his book where he captures his memoir with absolute reality. We first met many years ago through the sport of rock and high mountain climbing in Mexico City. I wish to testify that Mario recounts with absolute veracity events in his book and in which he cites me as an active participant. I congratulate Mario for his excellent memory in recounting those events in which he names my sister, Yoselinda, and me. We planned a trip to climb...

La Morenita

Autor: Guadalupe Cordoba

Número de Páginas: 148

Success-it's something everyone hopes for but few have the fortitude and endurance necessary to achieve it, especially when confronted by one adversity after another. Lupe Cordoba knows that hard work and determination are the traits necessary to achieve success, and she used these strong personal qualities to rise to her position as a nationally acclaimed restaurateur. Cordoba seemed to encounter nothing but hardships and obstacles throughout her life, and in La Morenita: The Story of Lupe Cordoba, she candidly illustrates how her life developed from an idyllic childhood in a small Mexican town to the collapse of her marriage after succeeding in reaching America with her three small children. Perseverance and clever thinking carried Cordoba from the plight of sleeping in her car to opening her first restaurant to preparing hors d'oeuvres for a party for President Clinton. While conveying her talent for balancing romance, motherhood, and business in her life, Cordoba offers frank advice for others in her position and presents intimate portraits of her family and friends and the lives they endured to reach their current plateau. La Morenita delivers the compelling story of one...
