Libros de Argentina (3 libros)

"An excellent compilation of texts by 31 Argentine political commentators and polemecists from the 1846-80 era. Authors include Mitre, Sarmiento, Alberdi, Echeverría, José Hernández, and Vicente F. López. In his preliminary study, Halperín Donghi notes that only Argentina realized a measure of the material and political progess to which the rest of the continent aspired - and this reflected in no small part the farsightedness of its political thinkers"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

This book aims at following a path of tensions, analysing the forms born by the internationalization projects Argentine art and artistic avant-gardes adopted in the sixties. The author describes the conditions that paved the way for their conception, the strategies to accomplish them, the images that best suited their representation and the antagonistic and opposing discourses, which beat the rhythm of the controversies that characterized the period.

"Novela. El relato del primer ataque guerrillero ocurrido el 5 de mayo de 1969 inicia la crónica de quienes participaron en él. Delaciones, prisión, tortura y actos de traición marcan sus destinos y prefiguran los horrores de la guerra posterior"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
