Book Description
Esta novela trata sobre la lucha desde los tiempos de la conquista por la democracia, la libertad y la paz que han experimentado los pueblos latinoamericanos. A través de los tiempos, la mayoría de estos pueblos han experimentado la explotación y represión a manos de fuerzas opresoras extranjeras y nacionales. Esto ha llevado algunos de estos pueblos a recurrir a la revolución armada como última alternativa para alcanzar la democracia, la libertad y la paz. Desafortunadamente, estos pueblos han descubierto que la violencia no es el camino apropiado para encontrar la liberación. Un día muy confundido y preocupado de ver el camino que había tomado la revolución, Juanito decidió ir a la biblioteca y retiró varios libros para conocer más la ideología que El Estado, los ideólogos y los líderes del partido en el poder imponían sobre la población. Entre más leía sobre aquella doctrina, menos entendía cómo era posible que una ideología cuya filosofía hablaba y promulgaba la liberación del ser humano, a la hora de la práctica convirtiera en esclavos y dogmáticos a toda la población. La doctrina y los adoctrinadores caminaban caminos diametralmente opuestos. La doctrina decía una cosa y los que trataban de ponerla en práctica hacían otra. Los demagogos hablaban de libertad y ellos mismos eran esclavos de su propia doctrina enajenante y seguían obligando al pueblo a ser esclavo. -Es una desgracia tener que pasarse la vida en silencio sin poder decir lo que uno piensa porque si lo hacemos nos meten a la cárcel, nos torturan, nos mandan al exilio o simplemente nos acribillan frente a un paredón-pensaba Juanito. -Yo no puedo vivir así-decía-. ¿De qué valió que miles de compañeros perdieran sus vidas en feroces combates contra el enemigo? . . . ¿De qué valieron todos aquellos años metidos en la montaña con la espalda mojada, cansados, ahuevados, durmiendo en el suelo, enfermos, con el lodo hasta la rodilla, aguantando frío y hambres? . . . “Yo no puedo vivir bajo un sistema que me obliga a aceptar dogmas y una doctrina sacada de los fantásticos sueños de un viejo tejedor de sueños. Yo no tengo por qué aceptar doctrinas enajenantes, filosofías huecas o mitos . . . Yo no puedo vivir con una mordaza en la boca, una venda en los ojos, grilletes en las manos y una cadena de hierro en mi mente. Yo ya me cansé de toda esta carajada. Voy a salir y gritar a los cuatro vientos todo lo que siento. También le voy a decir a mis familiares y amigos que hagan lo mismo . . . , que no se queden con nada por dentro. Aunque me metan en una celda fría y acaben conmigo a palos, yo voy a decir lo que pienso-acabó diciendo Juanito-. BR> Esa misma tarde, Juanito tomó una hoja de papel y le escribió una carta a Juventino, el hijo mayor de su hermana Rosaura, quien para entonces ya estudiaba en la secundaria del Liceo José Martí. En aquella carta, Juanito le aconsejaba a su sobrino: Nunca dejes que otros manipulen tu vida ni tu mente. Mantén los ojos abiertos y nunca dejes que otros te impongan sus ideologías, doctrinas, dogmas, o mitos de los cuales tú no eres simpatizante ni entiendes. Prepárate y siempre defiende tu punto de vista. No seas como aquellos que no son ni chicha ni limonada. No seas como esas barcas o el cometa que se deja llevar por el viento. Si no estás de acuerdo con lo que hacen tus gobernantes, pues dilo y ya. Habla . . . , no te quedes callado porque lo que uno guarda en el pecho poco a poco te sofoca hasta dejarte inerte en el lecho. Dicho y hecho. Libera tu mente y tu ser . . . , ten fe en lo que haces, camina con determinación, se lo que tú quieras ser sin importarte el que dirán, respeta los derechos de los demás, mantén la mirada puesta en el futuro y muchas cosas buenas vendrán con el estudio y el trabajo.” Dos días después como a eso de las cuatro de la tarde, Juanito fue al parque situado frente a la catedral en la ciudad capital, se subió sobre una banca de c

Creole Subjects in the Colonial Americas

Creole Subjects in the Colonial Americas PDF Author: Ralph Bauer
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 080789902X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 518

Book Description
Creolization describes the cultural adaptations that occur when a community moves to a new geographic setting. Exploring the consciousness of peoples defined as "creoles" who moved from the Old World to the New World, this collection of eighteen original essays investigates the creolization of literary forms and genres in the Americas between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. Creole Subjects in the Colonial Americas facilitates a cross-disciplinary, intrahemispheric, and Atlantic comparison of early settlers' colonialism and creole elites' relation to both indigenous peoples and imperial regimes. Contributors explore literatures written in Spanish, Portuguese, and English to identify creole responses to such concepts as communal identity, local patriotism, nationalism, and literary expression. The essays take the reader from the first debates about cultural differences that underpinned European ideologies of conquest to the transposition of European literary tastes into New World cultural contexts, and from the natural science discourse concerning creolization to the literary manifestations of creole patriotism. The volume includes an addendum of etymological terms and critical bibliographic commentary.

Resisting Categories: Latin American and/or Latino? PDF Author: Mari Carmen Ramirez
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300187157
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 1184

Book Description
DIV This first volume of the Critical Documents of 20th-Century Latin American and Latino Art series published by the International Center for the Arts of the Americas at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, presents 168 crucial texts written by influential artists, critics, curators, journalists, and intellectuals whose writings shed light on questions relating to what it means to be "Latin American" and/or "Latino." Reinforced within a critical framework, the documents address converging issues, including: the construct of "Latin-ness" itself; the persistent longing for a continental identity; notions of Pan–Latin Americanism; the emergence of collections and exhibitions devoted specifically to "Latin American” or "Latino" art; and multicultural critiques of Latin American and Latino essentialism. The selected documents, many of which have never before been published in English, span from the late fifteenth century to the present day. They encompass key protagonists of this comprehensive history as well as unfamiliar figures, revealing previously unknown facets of the questions and issues at play. The book series complements the thousands of seminal documents now available through the ICAA Documents of 20th-Century Latin American and Latino Art digital archive, http://icaadocs.mfah.org. Together they establish a much-needed intellectual foundation for the exhibition, collection, and interpretation of art produced in Latin America and among Latino populations in the United States. /div

Barcelona, City of Comics

Barcelona, City of Comics PDF Author: Benjamin Fraser
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438487509
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 303

Book Description
Barcelona, City of Comics introduces readers of English to a range of Spanish- and Catalan-language comics published after the death of dictator Francisco Franco in 1975. During this time of palpable social change, the Catalonian capital regained its reputation as the hub of comics publishing in Spain. Comics collectives such as El Rrollo and Butifarra, as well as individual artists from Montse Clavé to Mariscal, contributed to a thriving comics subculture that drew from and pushed beyond the countercultural comics tradition in the United States. As the Salón Internacional del Cómic de Barcelona (1981–) drew greater attention to the city, comics magazines teemed with graphic depictions of urban scenes. On the comics page, themes of architecture and city life were employed as social critique, while the city of Barcelona itself increasingly solidified its reputation on the global stage through urban planning. With a foreword by Pere Joan, Barcelona, City of Comics delves into the relationship between comics and urbanism in one of Europe's most notable global cities.

The Woodbine Parish Report on the Revolutions in South America (1822)

The Woodbine Parish Report on the Revolutions in South America (1822) PDF Author: Mariano Martín Schlez
Publisher: Liverpool University Press
ISBN: 1802079114
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 296

Book Description
This book presents the unpublished intelligence report “South America”, written in 1822 by Woodbine Parish, clerk at the Foreign Office, Castlereagh's private secretary and later the first British Consul to Buenos Aires. The document is transcribed, analysed and fully contextualised in order to foreground its decisive historical significance. The aim of Parish’s report was to outline British foreign policy and political strategy towards the South American revolutions at the final Congress of the Holy Alliance, held in Verona. Its publication contributes to the ongoing debates on Informal Empire, providing new empirical evidence that will enable us to better understand the social content of the political, economic and cultural relationships established between Britain and Latin America in the first half of the 19th century. The history of the document and of its author introduce the reader to the early stages of British intelligence and diplomacy with respect to an Independent Latin America, revealing the Foreign Office’s powers and limitations. Likewise, they offer an overview of the information about the South American revolutions circulating in London at the time, as well as the mechanisms used by the British government to obtain, classify and publicize this intelligence for political purposes. In this sense, the report makes evident the importance for the British government of knowing a specific historical and geographical reality in order to develop a foreign policy and political strategy. The book reflects on how this knowledge was mediated by class antagonisms and social relations (on a national and international scale) and was shaped by the stages of development of the productive forces in the regions involved. In this sense, studying the Parish family will allow us to more fully understand the role played by the increasingly influential social classes, in particular the merchants and manufacturers, in the development and implementation of a British foreign policy for Latin America.
