La casa de empeño y otros poemas. The pawn shop and other poems

Autor: Robert Gurney

Número de Páginas: 162

Vivo un poco fuera del tiempo y el espacio. Me encanta imaginarme en un campo —hace siglos— espantando cuervos o verme pasear a orillas de los ríos de la Patagonia. Me esfuerzo por crear una poesía minimalista. Como Huidobro, borro el adjetivo que no agrega nada. Busco una poesía a menudo gráfica. ¿Para qué? Busco la verdad, no la verdad masiva de la brocha gorda sino las pequeñas verdades de la vida. No siempre vemos las pequeñas cosas. Las persigo. Me gustan los sencillos actos de la humanidad: una sonrisa, una lágrima y los de la naturaleza: de una hormiga o una culebra. Absorbo cada día palabras de anuncios, tanto viejo como nuevo, escenas o voces del mercado, e-mails, periódicos, la televisión, películas, cuadros, fotos, los movimientos de los animales y pájaros del jardín. En mis textos hay una mezcla de realismo objetivo e imaginación subjetiva. Confieso que, al estilo de Raymond Carver, cambio a veces unos detalles para producir cierto efecto y mi imaginación puede arreglar las cosas según sus propias leyes. Creo que no es siempre el poeta quien crea los poemas. Es otra cosa. Es decir, creo en la inspiración. Mis amigos dicen que mis poemas sugieren...

The Exiles and Other Stories

The Exiles and Other Stories

Autor: Horacio Quiroga

Número de Páginas: 168

Tales of risk and danger, suffering, disease, horror, and death. Tales, also, of courage and dignity, hard work, and human endurance in the face of hostile nature and the frequent brutality of men. And tales flavored with piquant touches of humor and bemused irony. These are the stories of the Uruguayan writer Horacio Quiroga, here presented in an important compilation of thirteen of his most compelling tales, sensitively selected and translated by J. David Danielson. Author of some two hundred pieces of fiction, often compared to the works of Kipling, Jack London, and Edgar Allan Poe, Quiroga set many of his stories in the territory of Misiones in northeastern Argentina, the subtropical jungle region where he spent much of his life. Included here are stories from Los desterrados (1926) often said to be his best book, as well as others from Cuentos de amor de locura y de muerte (1917), Anaconda (1921), and El Desierto (1924). The publication of this selection marks the first appearance in English of all but two of the thirteen stories. Quiroga here presents a wide range of characters: parents and children, servant girls and prostitutes, landowners and lumber barons, foremen and...

The Book of Archives and Other Stories from the Mora Valley, New Mexico

The Book of Archives and Other Stories from the Mora Valley, New Mexico

Autor: A. Gabriel Meléndez , Robert Con Davis-Undiano

Número de Páginas: 248

In the shadow of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, New Mexico’s Mora Valley harbors the ghosts of history: troubadours and soldiers, Plains Indians and settlers, families fleeing and finding home. There, more than a century ago, villagers collect scraps of paper documenting the valley’s history and their identity—military records, travelers’ diaries, newspaper articles, poetry, and more—and bind them into a leather portfolio known as “The Book of Archives.” When a bomb blast during the Mexican-American War scatters the book’s contents to the wind, the memory of the accounts lives on instead in the minds of Mora residents. Poets and storytellers pass down the valley’s traditions into the twentieth century, from one generation to the next. In this pathbreaking dual-language volume, author A. Gabriel Meléndez joins their ranks, continuing the retelling of Mora Valley’s tales for our time. A native of Mora with el don de la palabra, the divine gift of words, Meléndez mines historical sources and his own imagination to reconstruct the valley’s story, first in English and then in Spanish. He strings together humorous, tragic, and quotidian vignettes about...

La Otra Cara de America / The Other Face of America SPA

La Otra Cara de America / The Other Face of America SPA

Autor: Jorge Ramos

Número de Páginas: 304

Este libro muestra una cara de los Estados Unidos que muchos no conocen o que temen conocer. Estados Unidos es mucho más que la Casa Blanca, Disneylandia y la NASA. Estados Unidos tiene a millones de personas viviendo en las sombras, con el temor constante a ser descubiertos y deportados. Sin embargo, estos inmigrantes ayudan enormemente a que funcione la sociedad norteamericana. Escrito en un lenguaje sencillo y directo, Jorge Ramos—el conductor titular del Noticiero Univision y autor de varios libros—nos presenta en breves pero poderosos relatos, las vidas de la gente que no sale en la televisión, en los periódicos ni en las revistas, pero que es fundamental para la economía y la cultura estadounidense. Ramos, un mexicano radicado hace más de dos décadas en Estados Unidos y con una maestría en Relaciones Internacionales, es uno de los periodistas más reconocidos e influyentes de Norteamérica. En esta versión actualizada, con los últimos datos sobre el eterno debate migratorio, Ramos muestra el constante dilema de Estados Unidos: que a pesar de ser un país de inmigrantes, muchas veces no sabe qué hacer ni cómo tratar a los recién llegados. Este es un libro...

Interpretation Des Heiligen

Autor: Giuseppe Zaccaria

The hermeneutic path involved in the interpretation of law as well as in the interpretation of sacred texts, though peculiar, seems - as Emilio Betti pointed out - to share several things, most importantly the "normative" nature of interpretation. The 1999 issue of the Yearbook "Ars Interpretandi" accounts for the several and disparate relationships between these two important "regional hermeneutics".

Broken Wings Alas Rotas

Broken Wings Alas Rotas

Autor: Guadalupe Elena Parra Batriz

Número de Páginas: 192

Este libro relata historias verdaderas de jóvenes que habían tratado de escapar del dolor solo para quedar atrapados en celdas obscuras e indiferentes a sus tragedias. Jóvenes cuyas alas rotas antes de empezar el vuelo terminaron por destruirlos. Se exponen momentos cruciales en la vida de estos jóvenes y se ahonda en el proceso psicológico por el que pasan y la dinámica interna que los encarcela. Se narran circunstancias en las que la estabilidad emocional se vuelve vulnerable y se entablan las luchas internas por mantener el equilibrio. La angustia de estos jóvenes se plasma en los diálogos que desgarran la realidad dolorosa de jóvenes que no pudieron escapar de las heridas lacerantes del pasado. This book is the product of over 5 years of experience working with juvenile delinquents. It is about real life stories of children and adolescents whose broken wings landed them in institutions indifferent to their tragedy which ended up destroying them. For many of them their wings will never again undertake the flight. They had tried to escape the pain only to end up trapped in dark cells with people unresponsive to their feelings and needs. Crucial moments in the lives of...
