El Cristo de Medinaceli y su Archicofradía

Autor: Enrique Guevara Pérez

Número de Páginas: 390

En la difusión del modelo y la devoción a Jesús Cautivo y Rescatado, en su iconografía del Ecce-Homo, por todo el territorio nacional e internacional, ha jugado un papel protagonista la imagen devotísima del afamado Cristo de Medinaceli, escultura anónima venerada en Madrid desde 1682, pero de origen sevillano, que se encuentra profundamente ligada a las órdenes de Trinitarios Descalzos y de Capuchinos. Más de tres siglos después de la llegada a la capital de España, de la imagen de Nuestro Padre Jesús Nazareno, rescatada de su cautiverio en Mequinez y de su depósito en sucesivas capillas, siempre bajo el patronato de los duques de Medinaceli, sigue muy vigente su culto, su devoción y su historia siempre rodeada de leyendas y percances. Con el fin de acrecentar el conocimiento sobre la imagen del Cristo de Medinaceli, ve la luz ahora este libro que conjuga la historia de la imagen con la de la Archicofradía que le rinde culto desde 1710, habiendo llegado hasta nuestros días como una de las más pujantes y, sin duda, como la más numerosa de cuantas configuran la Semana Santa de Madrid. Un cuidado texto, cronológicamente ordenado desde los orígenes hasta nuestros...

MADRID 2024 Petit Futé

Autor: Dominique Auzias , Jean-paul Labourdette

Número de Páginas: 277

Dans la capitale espagnole, plus de trois millions d'habitants s'agitent, s'affolent et s'affairent avec toujours cette même exubérance qui définit si bien les peuples latins. Située en plein coeur de la péninsule Ibérique et de la Meseta, Madrid est une capitale haute en altitude (646 mètres) mais aussi en couleur. Face à ce ballet en technicolor, le terme "cosmopolite" vient instantanément à l'esprit, tant l'animation de ses rues et le trafic de ses artères semblent hors normes. C'est chamboulé et électrisé que l'on visite Madrid, que l'on découvre le caractère affirmé de chaque quartier.

Reading the Literatures of Asian America

Autor: Shirley Lim , Amy Ling

Número de Páginas: 395

With the recent proliferation of critically acclaimed literature by Asian American writers, this groundbreaking collection of essays provides a unique resource for students, scholars, and the general reading public. The homogeneity implied by the term "Asian American" is replaced in this volume with the rich diversity of highly disparate peoples. Languages, religions, races and cultural and national backgrounds. Examining a century of Asian American literature from the late 19th century up through the contemporary experimental drama of Ping Chong, the contributors address the work of writers with Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino, East Indian, and Pacific Island ancestry. Asian Canadian and Hawaiian literature are also considered.

Inclusion, Diversity and Innovation in Translation Education

Autor: Alejandro Bolaños García-escribano , Mazal Oaknín

Número de Páginas: 264

Through examples of literary and audiovisual translation teaching practices, Inclusion, Diversity and Innovation in Translation Education places a novel emphasis on equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) synergising the latest research advancements in EDI and translation curricula. The contributors revisit how languages and translation are currently taught and explore the relevance of EDI values from an interdisciplinary perspective. The chapters contain proposals of best teaching practices and teacher training guidance alongside examples of research-led teaching scenarios. There is a twofold rationale behind this volume: firstly, identifying links between literary and audiovisual translation teaching practices, which often demand great creativity inside and outside the classroom; and, secondly, placing greater emphasis on EDI-focused methods and themes. Following this approach, readers are invited to consider pressing societal issues such as (media) accessibility, intersectionality, LGBTQI+ and race, among others, and to embed them in their language and translation teaching practices. Praise for Inclusion, Diversity and Innovation in Translation Education ‘This collection...

Beyond Human

Autor: Maryanne L. Leone , Shanna Lino

Número de Páginas: 388

Chronicling sixteenth-century Spain to the present day, Beyond Human aims to decentre the human and acknowledge the material historicity of more-than-human nature. The book explores key questions relating to ecological equity, justice, and responsibility within and beyond Spain in the Anthropocene. Examining relations between Iberian cultural practices, historical developments, and ecological processes, Maryanne L. Leone, Shanna Lino, and the contributors to this volume reveal the structures that uphold and dismantle the non-human–human dichotomy and nature-culture divide. The book critiques works from the Golden Age to the twenty-first century in a wide range of genres, including comedia, royal treatises, agricultural reports, paintings, satirical essays, horror fiction and film, young adult and speculative literature, poetry, graphic novels, and television series. The authors contend that Spanish cultural studies must expose the material historicity that entangles today’s ecological crises and ecosocial injustices with previous, future, and contemporary entities. The book argues that this will require the simultaneous decentring of the human and of the Anthropocene as an...

Encyclopedia of Feminist Literature

Autor: Kathy J. Whitson

Número de Páginas: 313

Many women writers have secured a solid place in the literary canon, while others have remained marginalized. This reference includes alphabetically arranged entries on roughly 70 women writers whose works are widely read in English, and on some 20 related topics. While some of the writers profiled are widely known, others have not yet received as much attention. And while most of the writers are from England and America, the volume also profiles Chilean, Brazilian, Indian, South African, Australian, French, and German authors. The writers selected are feminist, in that their works have challenged traditional gender roles, explored female oppression, or critiqued patriarchal social structures. In addition to providing biographical information, the entries include interpretative summaries of major works. Each author entry includes biographical information, an extensive summary treatment of at least one of her works, an list of her other major works, cross-references to related entries, and a list of works for further reading. What distinguishes this encyclopedia from the many other volumes addressing feminist literature or literature by women is the interpretative summary in each...

This selection of thirty-eight stories (from the nineteenth to the twenty-first centuries) illustrates diverse narrative styles, from the austere to the avant-garde, as well as a broad spectrum of human experiences.

Número de Páginas: 472

This anthology covers writings by Asian Americans in all genres, from the early twentieth century to the present. Some sixty authors of Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, South Asian, and Southeast Asian American origin are represented, with an equal split between male and female writers. The collection is divided into four sections-memoir, fiction, poetry, and drama-prefaced by an introductory essay from a well-known practitioner of that genre: Meena Alexander on memoir, Gary Pak on fiction, Eileen Tabios on poetry, and Roberta Uno on drama. The selections depict the complex realities and wide range of experiences of Asians in the United States. They illuminate the writers' creative responses to issues as diverse as resistance, aesthetics, biculturalism, sexuality, gender relations, racism, war, diaspora, and family.

Sanctuary Everywhere

Autor: Barbara Andrea Sostaita

Número de Páginas: 150

In Sanctuary Everywhere, Barbara Andrea Sostaita reimagines practices of sanctuary along the U.S.-Mexico border in order to explore the possibilities for radical fugitivity in the face of militarized border enforcement. After the 2016 presidential election, churches, universities, cities, and even states began declaring themselves sanctuaries. Sostaita proposes that these calls for expanded sanctuary are insufficient when dealing with the everyday workings of immigration enforcement. Through fieldwork in migrant clinics, shelters, and the Sonoran Desert, Sostaita demonstrates that, as a sacred practice, sanctuary cannot be fixed in any one destination or mandate. She turns to those working to create sanctuary on the move, from a deported nurse offering medical care on the border to incarcerated migrant women denying rules on touch in detention facilities to collectives set up to honor those who died crossing the border. Understanding sanctuary to be a set of fugitive practices that escapes the everyday, Sostaita shows us how, in the wake of extreme violence and loss, migrants create sanctuaries of their own to care for the living and the dead.

Out in the Open

Autor: Jesús Carrasco

Número de Páginas: 194

'A...humane and very beautiful book' Garth Greenwell, author of What Belongs to You A young boy has fled his home. Crouched in his hiding place he hears the shouts of the men hunting him. When the search party has passed, what lies before him is an infinite, arid plain, one he must cross in order to escape those from whom he’s fleeing. One night he crosses paths with an old goatherd and from that moment nothing will ever be the same for either of them. Out in the Open tells the story of a boy in a drought-stricken country ruled by violence. A closed world where names and dates don’t matter, where morals have drained away with the water. In this landscape the boy, not yet a lost cause, has the chance to learn the painful basics of judgement, or to live out forever the violence with which he grew up.
