Book Description
Voices of Love Letters from Africa is a collection of writings from young writers from Africa. The 2021 winners and finalists of the 2021 Chima Ugokwe Prize for Essay contributed to this volume. They are voices of Hope. Voices of patriotism. Voices of common sense. They are innocent voices from Africa. Beautiful souls who wrote from their hearts. They have given us hope, a future, and love. I was touched as I read thoughtful lines that proffers solutions to many contemporary challenges that the pandemic came with. The Ubuntu. I am because weare. They were part of a history that will never die. They witnessed a time when humanity listened to the same whistle and we all got home. For the first time, we were worried about ourselves, our neighbors, our children, and distant persons. For the first time, generosity thrived more than it does in festivities. For the first time, we live consciously, watching and paying attention to headlines and breaking news. For the first time we cried for people we do not know and had never seen. We became human and to some, more religious. Well, for the same time still, we had to socially distance ourselves from our friends and loved ones. In their believe, they are sure that common sense can no longer prevail, but a sense of common purpose, a sense of deep thinking that targets our living beyond fears, beyond doubts and worries, beyond insensibility and irresponsibility, a sense that can generate widespread new understanding of reality and collective action. We must live for others. That is the spirit.

Book Description
Hearing Voices takes a fresh look at sound in the poetry and prose of colonial Latin American poet and nun Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1648/51–95). A voracious autodidact, Sor Juana engaged with early modern music culture in a way that resonates deeply in her writing. Despite the privileging of harmony within Sor Juana’s work, however, links between the poet’s musical inheritance and subjects such as acoustics, cognition, writing, and visual art have remained unexplored. These lacunae have marginalized nonmusical aurality and contributed to the persistence of both ocularcentrism and a corresponding visual dominance in scholarship on Sor Juana—and indeed in early modern cultural production in general. As in many areas of her work, Sor Juana’s engagement with acoustical themes restructures gendered discourses and transposes them to a feminine key. Hearing Voices focuses on these aural conceits in highlighting the importance of sound and—in most cases—its relationship with gender in Sor Juana’s work and early modern culture. Sarah Finley explores attitudes toward women’s voices and music making; intersections of music, rhetoric, and painting; aurality in Baroque visual art; sound and ritual; and the connections between optics and acoustics. Finley demonstrates how Sor Juana’s striking aurality challenges ocularcentric interpretations and problematizes paradigms that pin vision to logos, writing, and other empirical models that traditionally favor men’s voices. Sound becomes a vehicle for women’s agency and responds to anxiety about the female voice, particularly in early modern convent culture.

Book Description
The reflexive constructions that are the focus of this book are the constructions broadly described with the term “middle”: i.e., those that can appear in all persons, and in which the reflexive marker (RM) cannot be understood as a full referential pronoun. One goal of this study is to provide a corpus-based typology of middle and related uses that allow us to compare the behaviour of the RM in these constructions with previous typological accounts, where competing models (based either on changes of diathesis or on the semantics of the verbal event) can be found. A second goal is to shed light on the evolution of the different functions of the RM, by exploring the factors that affect its productivity, with a specific focus on those verbs where reflexive marking is most variable, that is, anticausative verbs and verbs with no change of valency. These reflexive constructions show a notable difference in productivity in Spanish and Galician, although the languages are closely related and contiguous. The languages are thus good candidates for a contrastive and variationist analysis serving these two goals. The semantic class of the predicate, its aspectual properties and the animacy of the subject are some of the most relevant factors that are taken into account to understand the motivations behind the presence (or absence) of the RM. By relying on a corpus of interviews from rural communities across peninsular Spain (except Catalonia), space as a relevant extra-linguistic variable is taken into account, helping uncover previously unknown geographical patterns.
