Tirso de Molina: The Trickster of Seville and the Stone Guest

Número de Páginas: 241

Tirso de Molina was, with Lope de Vega and Calderon, one of the great dramatists of 17th century Spain, which produced a theatre as vital rich and as varied as its Elizabethan counterpart. The Trickster of Seville is thoroughly representative of the drama of Spain's Golden Age: a drama of fast-moving action which set its face against classical precepts, broke the unities of time and place, cheerfully mixed the serious and the comic, combined main and sub-plots, and cultivated Spanish subjects and Spanish characters. In this respect Tirso's Don Juan is of course, the most famous character in the drama of the Golden Age, as well as the first of a long line which extends through Mozart and Moliere to the 20th century.

El sueño americano y sus pesadillas

Autor: Marcelo G. Burello , Alejandro Goldzycher

Número de Páginas: 415

Desde hace alrededor de un siglo, circula por el mundo –y con toda naturalidad– el concepto de "sueño americano", cual epítome de la cultura estadounidense (y por ende, a la vez, cual clave ideológica del sistema capitalista). Pero... ¿cómo y cuándo surgió esta vaga y poderosa idea? Y sobre todo, ¿qué papel tuvo en su origen y vigencia la literatura norteamericana, siempre tan rica en variantes y a menudo tan simplificada desde una perspectiva externa y sesgada? En este volumen, un nutrido grupo de estudiosos latinoamericanos enfoca obras y autores literarios a la luz de este auténtico mito cultural, en un arco que va desde la época colonial hasta nuestros días. Los puritanos y los beat, el western y la ciencia ficción, escritores consagrados oficialmente y escritores de culto: una vasta galería de nombres de mujeres y hombres que con sus poemas, ensayos y narraciones permiten explorar y analizar críticamente un sueño demasiado propenso a volverse pesadilla... Escriben: Gabriel Matelo, Mariana Larín, Marcelo G. Burello, Nicolás Ferreiro, Thomas Schonfeld, Luciana Colombo, María Verónica Colombo, Cecilia E. Lasa, Daniel del Percio, Thiago Pimentel, Sofía...

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.

Dead Men Flying

Autor: General Patrick Henry Brady , Meghan Brady Smith

Número de Páginas: 629

Viet Nam may be the only war we ever fought, or perhaps that was ever fought, in which the heroism of the American soldier was accompanied by humanitarianism unmatched in the annals of warfare. And the humanitarianism took place during the heat of the battle. The GI fixed as he fought, he cured and educated and built in the middle of the battle. He truly cared for, and about, those people. What other Army has ever done that? Humanitarianism was America's great victory in Viet Nam. Spearheading the humanitarian efforts were the air ambulance operations, call-sign Dust Off, the most dangerous of all aviation operations, which rescued some one million souls in Viet Nam. Dead Men Flying is the story of Charles Kelly, the father of Dust Off, who gave his life to save Dust Off—the greatest life-saver ever. His dying words—When I have your wounded—set the standard for combat medicine to this day. It is also the story of the author, Medal of Honor recipient General Patrick Brady, who learned from Charles Kelly and struggled to meet his standard. Brady led the 54th Medical Detachment as it rescued over twenty-one thousand wounded—enemy and friendly—in ten months, while sustaining ...

In Case of Fire in a Foreign Land

Autor: Ariel Dorfman

Número de Páginas: 172

In the world of Chilean poet Ariel Dorfman, men and women can be forced to choose between leaving their country or dying for it. The living risk losing everything, but what they hold onto—love, faith, hope, truth—might change the world. It is this subversive possibility that speaks through these poems. A succession of voices—exiles, activists, separated lovers, the families of those victimized by political violence—gives an account of ruptured safety. They bear witness to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of personal and social damage in the aftermath of terror. The first bilingual edition of Dorfman’s work, In Case of Fire in a Foreign Land includes ten new poems and a new preface, and brings back into print the classic poems of the celebrated Last Waltz in Santiago. Always an eloquent voice against the ravages of inhumanity, Dorfman’s poems, like his acclaimed novels, continue to be a searing testimony of hope in the midst of despair.

James Joyce en el cine

Autor: Jesús Isaías Gómez López

Número de Páginas: 196

El tema central de este libro, la traducción fílmica del Ulises de James Joyce, abre el camino para futuros estudios de este tipo, al mismo tiempo que pone en tela de juicio la tradicional mirada miope que la literatura y los literatos, por lo general, han venido dedicando al cine. No hay que olvidar que una novela como ésta, que puede ser leída de multiples maneras, es "per se" un ejemplo de escritura intraducible. Con todo, quienes leen y van al cine con la asiduidad y religiosidad de quien dedica igual veneración a ambas formas de contar una historia, comprenderán que pese a esa aparente inutilidad de películas como ésta, en su traducción al cinematógrafo se encierra su verdadera esencia, en una profundidad que la hace pasar inadvertida, pero que siempre está ahí, en la esencia misma de esa imagen que ha nacido de una plalabra o frase escrita, y que en el caso de Joyce nos hace pensar que, tal vez, su obra es en sí misma cine. Es bien sabido el interés que siempre tuvo Joyce por que su novela Ulises fuese llevada al cine, en especial de la mano de Sergei Eisenstein. Pero la novela sería filmada veintiseis años después de su muerte, de la mano del polémico y...

House of Houses

Autor: Pat Mora

Número de Páginas: 322

Combining poetic language and the traditions of magic realism to paint a vivid portrait of her family, Pat MoraÕs House of Houses is an unconventional memoir that reads as if every member, death notwithstanding, is in one room talking, laughing, and crying. In a salute to the Day of the Dead, the story begins with a visit to the cemetery in which all of her deceased relatives come alive to share stories of the family, literally bringing the food to their own funerals. From there the book covers a year in the life of her clan, revealing the personalities and events that Mora herself so desperately yearns to know and understand. ÒPoet MoraÕs complex and dramatic family history comprises more than personal reminiscences: it also embraces resonant aspects of Mexican American history. Mora recounts her familyÕs traumatic exodus from Mexico to escape the violence of Pancho Villa and his forces and their struggles to begin new lives in another country. To anchor her psychologically rich, dramatic, sometimes funny, often touching multigenerational tale, Mora uses the image of a houseÑthe house of housesÑduring a single year, a fruitful metaphor that allows her to dwell on the bright ...

Calderon The Physician of his Honour

Autor: Donald Hindley

Número de Páginas: 217

One of the most intellectually and emotionally engaging of the Spanish Golden Age (seventeenth century) plays, as well as the most controversial. Taking place during the reign of King Pedro of Castile (1350¡1369), it is one of the spectacular 'honour dramas', in which the main characters confront compelling yet conflicting imperatives. The Physician of His Honour is beautiful in its poetry and unsettling in its resolution. For more than 350 years the play and its author have been as fiercely reviled as they have been enthusiastically acclaimed by audiences and readers. First published in 1997, for the second edition the translation has been extensively revised, with the aim of simplifying the English, whilst continuing to respect and acknowledge as much as possible the beauties and challenges of the original Spanish.

Beyond Intensity

Autor: Ramon Vila

After years of traveling the world, searching for all life has to offer, Toni Martí realizes that his youthful curiosity has soured into stagnation, depression, and drug addiction. While stumbling through what remains of his life, he commits a crime and is sentenced to community service at a nursing home. Forced to comply, he forms a grudging relationship with Juan, an octogenarian whose family long ago abandoned him, and whose day-to-day life seems undisturbed by change. He also encounters Lucía, who runs the nursing home, but not her life; too fearful to follow the lure of her dreams or rebel against her parents, she has grown dull and unhappy. “Beyond Intensity” captures the story of three characters trapped in lives that bring them only loneliness and despair. Soon, they will be forced to discover what is beyond the pursuit of momentary pleasure, beyond routine, beyond conformity. Against the backdrop of a dehumanized society, these three characters’ lives give us the opportunity to reflect on the culture of immediacy and the search for instant gratification—to ask ourselves, what lies beyond intensity?

Calderon: The Painter of his Dishonour, El pintor de su deshonra

Número de Páginas: 225

Alan Paterson presents Calderon's original text, from manuscript and printed sources, with a skilful verse translation into English of a remarkable play, in which Calderon develops the motif of marital honour in quite original ways. The blending of deep pathos and humour anticipates the modern theatre of the absurd, though Calderon is pushing to the limits the license gained by Lope de Vega to mingle tragedy with comedy. The play incorporates important aesthetic ideas of the Renaissance on painting and the character of the artist. It must be unique in seventeenth-century European in dramatising the painter as he works in his studio and meditates on his art. Since the play deals with the aesthetic component in human behaviour, its own aeathetic status as a verse drama had been conserved in the translation. Those with no knowledge of Spanish will find a text which is agreeable to read and to perform. The translation is close enough, however, to offer the reader of limited ability in Spanish a reliable key to the Spanish text. Spanish text with facing-page translation, introduction and commentary.
