The Poetics of Otherness in Antonio Machado's 'proverbios Y Cantares'
Author: Nicolás Fernández-Medina
Publisher: University of Wales Press
ISBN: 0708323235
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Antonio Machado (1875-1939) is one of Spain’s most original and renowned twentieth-century poets and thinkers. From his early poems in Soledades. Galerías. Otros poemas of 1907, to the writings of his alter-ego Juan de Mairena of the 1930s, Machado endeavoured to explain how the Other became a concern for the self. In The Poetics of Otherness in Antonio Machado’s “Proverbios y cantares,” Nicolás Fernández-Medina examines how Machado’s “Proverbios y cantares,” a collection of short, proverbial poems spanning from 1909 to 1937, reveal some of the poet’s deepest concerns regarding the self-Other relationship. To appreciate Machado’s organizing concept of otherness in the “Proverbios y cantares,” Fernández-Medina argues how it must be contextualized in relation to the underlying Romantic concerns that Machado struggled with throughout most of his oeuvre, such as autonomy, solipsism and skepticism of absolutes. In The Poetics of Otherness in Antonio Machado’s “Proverbios y cantares,” Fernández-Medina demonstrates how Machado continues a practice of “fragment thinking” to meld the poetic and the philosophical, the part and whole, and the finite and infinite to bring light to the complexities of the self-Other relationship and its relevance in discussions of social and ethical improvement in early twentieth-century Spain.

New World Order
Author: Sean Stone
Publisher: TrineDay
ISBN: 163424091X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
A sweeping overview of world affairs and, especially having come across the name of William Yandell Elliott, Professor of Politics at Harvard through the first half of the 20th century. Sean found that Elliott had created a kindergarten of Anglo-American imperialists amongst his students, who included Henry Kissinger, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Samuel P. Huntington, and McGeorge Bundy. Upon further investigation, Sean came to understand Elliott's own integral role, connecting the modern national-security establishment with the British Round Table Movement's design to re-incorporate America into the British 'empire'. Whether that goal was achieved will be left to the reader to decide. However, it cannot be denied that W.Y. Elliott's life and intellectual history serves to demonstrate the interlocking relationship between academia, government, and big business.

Book Description
If you feel frustrated because all you do is work, yet do not seem to reap the rewards of your hard work while others live the life of absolute luxury, wealth and power without working, this book will show you why. It covers many different subjects, and will build you the mind's eye of the complex structure of the system, which is designed to strip you of your wealth, and give it to those in power. This book has been written to be read from start to finish first, and then used as reference, because there is way too much detail to rely on memory alone to remember. Such topics are as follows: Money, The Banking System, Tax, GDP, Debating Techniques, Gas-lighting, Free speech, Propaganda, Politics, Religion, Multiculturalism, Racism, Welfare, Rights, Law, Fractional Reserve Banking, Debt as money, National Debt, Quantitative Easing, Derivatives, World Reserve Currency, War, Wage Compression, Education, Bitcoin and many more. Do not worry if these topics seem daunting or intimidating to you, academia has designed them to be this way so you will fear trying to learn them, but each topic has been distilled down to a very short chapter, and detailed in a way to make it very clear and easy to understand. Do not fear knowledge, as knowledge will make you fearless.

The History of the Port of London

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
“This meticulously researched account underlines the importance of the capital’s docklands . . . from Roman landing to modern financial centre.” —Discover Britain The River Thames has been integral to the prosperity of London since Roman times. Explorers sailed away on voyages of discovery to distant lands. Colonies were established and a great empire grew. Funding their ships and cargoes helped make the City of London into the world’s leading financial center. In the nineteenth century a vast network of docks was created for ever-larger ships, behind high, prison-like walls that kept them secret from all those who did not toil within. Sail made way for steam as goods were dispatched to every corner of the world. In the nineteenth century London was the world’s greatest port city. In the Second World War the Port of London became Hitler’s prime target. It paid a heavy price but soon recovered. Yet by the end of the 20th century the docks had been transformed into Docklands, a new financial center. The History of the Port of London: A Vast Emporium of Nations is the fascinating story of the rise and fall and revival of the commercial river. The only book to tell the whole story and bring it right up to date, it charts the foundation, growth and evolution of the port and explains why for centuries it has been so important to Britain’s prosperity. This book will appeal to those interested in London’s history, maritime and industrial heritage, the Docklands and East End of London, and the River Thames.
