Agustin Lara

Autor: Andrew Grant Wood

Número de Páginas: 321

Few Mexican musicians in the twentieth century achieved as much notoriety or had such an international impact as the popular singer and songwriter Agustín Lara (1897-1970). Widely known as "el flaco de oro" ("the Golden Skinny"), this remarkably thin fellow was prolific across the genres of bolero, ballad, and folk. With close musicological focus and in-depth cultural analysis riding alongside the biographical narrative, Agustin Lara: A Cultural Biography is a welcome read to aficionados and performers of Latin American musics, as well as a valuable addition to the study of modern Mexican music and Latin American popular culture as a whole.

LA NOVELA NEGRA QUE ESTABAS ESPERANDO LEER. Calor, olivos, ahorcados..., una adictiva ópera prima a la altura de los grandes nombres del género. «Diálogos vivos y un variopinto grupo de investigadores en una novela que conjuga perfectamente la tensión con los toques de humor». Jónatan Rubio, Librería La Sombra «Personajes de carne y hueso en un paisaje singular. Un gran debut». Domingo Villar En Iznájar, Córdoba, parece que el calor fuera a asfixiarte, que los olivos se extendieran hasta el infinito en ordenadas hileras y que a los lugareños les cobraran por cada palabra que pronuncian. De eso se da cuenta Ernesto Pitana nada más llegar a su nuevo destino como sargento de la Guardia Civil. Pero lo que aún no sabe es que en la comarca se triplica la tasa de suicidios del resto de España, ni que en el pueblo hay ya esperándole un nuevo caso de ahorcamiento. Tampoco imagina hasta qué punto se complicarán las cosas cuando la viuda encuentre entre los papeles del difunto una misteriosa instantánea en la que aparecen cinco adolescentes, entre ellos su marido.

Narratives against Enslavement from the Court Rooms of Nineteenth-Century Brazil

Autor: Clara Lunow

Número de Páginas: 261

This book examines the enslavement system in nineteenth-century Brazil, demonstrating the strategies that lawyers and plaintiffs used to fight for freedom in court. In nineteenth-century Brazil, countless enslaved and freed women and men appealed to court to claim their right to freedom or that of family members. Taken as a whole, these legal suits create a narrative against the institution of slavery. By analyzing 30 individual cases (1810–1881) from various parts of imperial Brazil, this book demonstrates the intricate strategies of argumentation that lawyers and plaintiffs conceived to prove the right to freedom of the parties involved and to convince the authorities of it. Enslaved persons did not only protest their enslavement through rebellion, flight, refusal to work, and in everyday life but also produced a statement in the legal sphere against enslavement. This intellectual achievement was realized through the cooperation of lawyers and enslaved plaintiffs alike, functioning through stories of injustices, not through theoretical treatises on the right to liberty.
