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!”

Autor: Jean A. Gili

Número de Páginas: 413

Una obra que reúna todos aquellos realizadores que han escrito páginas memorables en la historia del cine. No es tarea fácil recopilar la trayectoria de los directores esenciales del universo cinematográfico. Y es que hoy en día a nadie se le escapa ya la gran influencia que ha ejercido el cine en nuestra vida. Por eso, es de suma importancia tener a nuestro alcance una obra que trata de "reunir a aquellos realizadores en posesión de un estatus de autor que hubieran desarrollado su propia concepción del cine y una expresión cinematográfica original". De Tim Burton a Charlie Chaplin, de Stanley Kubrick a Fritz Lang, de Federico Fellini a Yasujiro Ozu, de Jean Renoir a Woody Allen y Orson Welles este libro propone a todos los cinéfilos una selección de 200 realizadores que han escrito la historia del cine. Una obra que rinde homenaje a los cineastas que "filman como respiran", para retomar la expresión de François Truffaut refiriéndose a Jean-Luc Godard. Todo ello sin olvidar a los realizadores que en España, y en ocasiones, en situaciones muy difíciles, han conseguido crear un universo particular alejado de estereotipos y modas: Buñuel, Bardem, Berlanga, Saura,...

Selected Prose and Prose-Poems

Autor: Gabriela Mistral

Número de Páginas: 262

The first Latin American to receive a Nobel Prize for Literature, the Chilean writer Gabriela Mistral (1889-1957) is often characterized as a healing, maternal voice who spoke on behalf of women, indigenous peoples, the disenfranchised, children, and the rural poor. She is that political poet and more: a poet of philosophical meditation, self-consciousness, and daring. This is a book full of surprises and paradoxes. The complexity and structural boldness of these prose-poems, especially the female-erotic prose pieces of her first book, make them an important moment in the history of literary modernism in a tradition that runs from Baudelaire, the North American moderns, and the South American postmodernistas. It's a book that will be eye-opening and informative to the general reader as well as to students of gender studies, cultural studies, literary history, and poetry. This Spanish-English bilingual volume gathers the most famous and representative prose writings of Gabriela Mistral, which have not been as readily available to English-only readers as her poetry. The pieces are grouped into four sections. "Fables, Elegies, and Things of the Earth" includes fifteen of Mistral's...

Autor: Carlos Montemayor , Donald Frischmann

Número de Páginas: 271

As part of the larger, ongoing movement throughout Latin America to reclaim non-Hispanic cultural heritages and identities, indigenous writers in Mexico are reappropriating the written word in their ancestral tongues and in Spanish. As a result, the long-marginalized, innermost feelings, needs, and worldviews of Mexico's ten to twenty million indigenous peoples are now being widely revealed to the Western societies with which these peoples coexist. To contribute to this process and serve as a bridge of intercultural communication and understanding, this groundbreaking anthology—to be published in three volumes over the coming years—gathers works by the leading generation of writers in thirteen Mexican indigenous languages: Nahuatl, Maya, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Tojolabal, Tabasco Chontal, Purepecha, Sierra Zapoteco, Isthmus Zapoteco, Mazateco, Ñahñu, Totonaco, and Huichol. Volume 1 contains narratives and essays by Mexican indigenous writers. Their texts appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Frischmann and Montemayor have abundantly annotated the English, Spanish, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that...

Chicana Lesbians

Autor: Carla Trujillo

Número de Páginas: 228

Literary Nonfiction. LGBT Studies. "CHICANA LESBIANS is a love poem, a bible, a dictionary, nothing so simple as a manifesto—this book is yet another reason to believe—to believe in the girls our mothers warned us about, brown girls, lesbians, making their own love poems, bibles, dictionaries, manifestoes, reasons to believe."—Dorothy Allison "When I was selling books at a Chicana conference, I noticed book buyers were literally afraid to touch this anthology. I say now what I said then, 'Don't be scared. Sexuality is not contagious, but ignorance is.' If you've ever been curious, been there, been voyeur, been tourist, or just plain under-informed, misinformed, or unaffirmed, here is a book to listen to and learn from".—Sandra Cisneros
