Sinopsis del Libro

Libro La vida manda y otros textos

This edition comprises selected examples of the Cuban writer Ofelia Rodriguez Acosta' s prose, including her best known novel and samples of her short stories, essays and journalism works. These texts range from raw realism to lyrical exaltation; from the direct portayal of the historical moment to the meticulous insight of the human psyche. Her peculiar naturalism bloomed under the influence of the philosophical currents of her times, encompassing echoes of Positivism, but after a passionate discussion against Existentialism her writing steerer towards the Latin American avant-garde literature that without any conflict simultaneously approached metaphysics and political commitment. Together the foreword essay and the selected examples offer a survey view of her style and ideas in the convulsive decades of 1930 to 1950 Cuba, a key to understand the development of Modernity on the island. Ofelia Rodríguez Acosta, undoubtedly occupies a place in this feat. We hope that this book continues the growing academic work determined to recover her voice. This book is much more than an excellent edition of the novel «La vida manda» by the all-important Cuban feminist Ofelia Rodríguez Acosta. In addition to including a selection of other texts by the author, in her introduction Madeline Cámara highlights with sharpness and intelligence the importance of naturalism, feminism and mysticism in the work of Rodríguez Acosta. From now on, every study on Rodríguez Acosta will have to take into account this magnificent contribution made by prof. Camara.

Política/sexualidad

Libro Política/sexualidad

PolitÌca / sexualidad shows that during the 1980s a traceable phenomenon in Latin American women's writing is the creation of a knot in which sexuality becomes entangled with politics. Women's writing struggles to create a political reading of the discourse of sexuality and likewise show how political space forces the private sphere to impose itself upon the sexuality of women. At one level of representation, a woman's body is the space where discourse merges the joyful experience of pleasure with the pain of repression. This book is a contribution to the construction of a Latin American...

Los escritores vagabundos

Libro Los escritores vagabundos

Ya sea por razones personales, políticas o meramente aventureras, muchos autores europeos y latinoamericanos escaparon de sus países de nacimiento y atravesaron el Atlántico, adquirieron otra lengua e incluso escribieron en ese idioma que les prestó su nueva patria temporal. Traven, Artaud, Burroughs y Lowry en México; Hemingway en Cuba; Zweig, Bernanos y Cendrars en Brasil; César Vallejo y César Moro en París, pero también Breton, Lawrence, Gombrowicz, y Michaux, entre tantos otros, produjeron numerosas obras mayores a partir de esta errancia a ultramar. Unos partieron a Europa en...

Traducción, humanismo y propaganda monárquica

Libro Traducción, humanismo y propaganda monárquica

La traducción de Fernández de Villegas del ‘Infierno’ en coplas de arte mayor está rodeada de una extensa glosa del mismo traductor cuya fuente principal es el ‘Comento sopra la Comedia de Landino’ (1481). En este libro se abordan temáticas hasta hace poco desatendidas, como el contexto del que emerge –la corte regia–, su fecha de composición, sus problemas de transmisión textual y los mecanismos de traducción empleados –los cuales se analizan desde el marco de los ‘Translation Studies’–. Asimismo, cómo el contexto político, cultural y literario del autor influye...

Myths in Crisis

Libro Myths in Crisis

This trilingual volume examines the extent to which myths are affected by the crises of the 20th and 21st centuries. It brings together four theoretical studies which analyse both the crisis of structure – implying the distortion or disappearance of myth – and the crisis of concepts and terminology that currently threaten the study of mythology. The largest section of the volume focuses on the crises that have affected ancient, medieval and modern literary myths from a global perspective, taking into account psychology, ethics, politics and contemporary meta-literature. The final section...
