Book Description
Rain of Memories Have you ever felt like you've been followed by a storm? And despite your continuous running, there is no escape. The storm has you. Your whole life appears before you, and you don't have any choice but to contemplate the memories that come forward. That's the way the narrative voice brings you to see fragmented memories throughout poetry. Rain of Memories leads us to different roads: some poems will exalt the value of our lives; others are full of passion in the description of an unrequited love. Rain of Memories touches diverse subjects like romantic and passionate love, and our everyday existence. The narrative voice helps us to value the small things that surround us. It takes the reader to various moments of universality expressed by a language full of metaphors and musicality which grabs your attention like a storm. Lluvia de recuerdos Alguna vez ha sentido como si una tormenta estuviera detrás de Ud. para alcanzarlo y luego irrumpe a su alrededor inundándolo en su vendaval. Tal así parece al leer Lluvia de Recuerdos. Su narrativa nos lleva por diferentes caminos: unos callados y tranquilos, contemplativos, otros llenos de pasión ante el amor no correspondido, otros nos hablan con nostalgia de la tierra lejana. Algunos poemas nos llevan a contemplar las cosas pequeñas de la vida que nos rodean. La impresión que nos da entrar a un museo y ver la obra de un artista cuyo trabajo nos habla y nos transporta a un mundo del que poco sabemos. Lluvia de recuerdos nos traslada a diferentes momentos de universalidad. Trasciende con su chinchinear de metáforas escapadas de sus versos que llevan un mensaje escondido en sus poesías. Ellas guían al lector por diferentes caminos y exploran sus anhelos y sentimientos atrapando su atención.

Book Description
This book is the first to discover and probe in depth memory phenomena captured in literary works. Using literature as a laboratory for the workings of the mind, this comparative study of writers from Jean-Jacques Rousseau to Octavio Paz, including Proust, Breton, Woolf and Faulkner, uncovers valuable material for the classification of the memory process. Nalbantian's daring interdisciplinary work, involving literature, science, and art, forges a new model for dialogue between the disciplines.

Book Description
By blending personal memoir and critical analysis, Voices of the Survivors explores cultural and human responses to the violence of political repression and social disintegration perpetrated in Argentina during the so called Dirty War of the late '70s and early '80s. Central to the theoretical and critical corpus is the work of scholars writing in response to the historical trauma of the Holocaust (Adorno, La Capra, Shoshana Felman), which posed questions regarding social trauma, the links between mourning and memory, and the role of artistic creation and its value as testimony. The book traces shifts in discursive formations and social practices critical to understanding the origin and impact of the Process of National Reorganization (as it was known by the military government) through analysis of a broad range of sources, including poetry, fiction, memoirs and testimonies, popular music, and journalism. These texts explore the persistence of issues of memory and mourning within the particular conditions of Argentine culture in the aftermath of the dictatorship. This significant new work will be essential reading for scholars interested in issues of violence, political and cultural disruption, memory, and historical consciousness.

Book Description
ANAMNESIS (In ancient Greek – Recollection, reminiscence; loss of forgetfulness), Is the recollection of memories, lost in the journey or fall, from the Sanctuary into the human world. The fallen or children of the Sanctuary, are the creative minds, the divine souls, gods among human beings and the light of life. They live in the human society, just like everyone else, but all along, the feel something is missing, they perceive that there is something else; they try to find the inexplicable to the reason and to the senses; the truth. Rediscovering a whole new world, behind unopened doors, between unexplored parallels; where the poetical verses of art dominates, where philosophy is a life style and where all the immortal souls belongs to, the eternal place; the Sanctuary. Here are the verses of Love & Death, experienced by the divine immortal souls, fighting their own demons, in a world of dark mortal souls, a world of hate and chaos, destruction and confusion.
