It is a short book about love, but not about that kind of love... about the one which people go into deep feelings. We might call this story: "The first moment of love", when people come along before any form of relationship. It is about that small fire that warms us inside before our souls start to burn in a flame of love.
Thirty-five years after her death, this book reassesses the Argentinian poet Alejandra Pizarnik (1936-72) in the light of recent publications of her 'complete' poetry and prose, diaries, and previously unavailable archive material.The essays in this volume explore Pizarnik's work from new angles: they examine her production as a literary critic, revealing her intense identificatory strategies as a reader, and the impact of such activities upon her own creative process. They also weigh up the influence of her ambiguous attitudes towards sexuality on her poetic personae, as well as the ways in which her concern with sex inspires her experimentation with humorous prose. New approaches are taken to key texts and themes: in the case of the much-studied work, 'La condesa sangrienta', through a detailed philosophical reading involving comparisons with Kafka, and, in the case of the theme of the split subject, through the lens of translation.By broadening the scope of Pizarnik studies, this book will act as a catalyst for further research into the work of this compelling poet.
Manual de dibujo de la arquitectura, etc. Es una reflexión sobre las raices, los procesos y los objetivos de la expresión gráfica en general y su aplicación a la arquitectura, en particular, proponiéndose su entendimiento y su práctica sobre tres vías esenciales: como análisis y conocimiento de la realidad del entorno habitable, como ideación, imaginación y formalización de sus modificaciones para adaptarse a las necesidades humanas, y como elaboración de los medios necesarios para ordenar, gobernar y comunicar dicha transformación. Tal reflexión se plantea desde los lugares de su enseñanza y desde los de su aprendizaje.
This is the first and only treatise that explores true cunning! This is not just another book on "dark psychology" or manipulation. This is the first and only book that delves into the art of real cunning, which will always be understood concerning practical intelligence, virtue, perspicacity, and noble sagacity. The difference between a cunning person and a manipulator is that the former has no malice or selfishness in his heart. While the manipulator seems to delight in deceiving and manipulating people, the cunning person only uses his trickery when the occasion warrants it and is always backed by truth, justice, and honesty. Being cunning is not the same as being a manipulator. Unlike the manipulator, who acts with vileness and selfishness, the truly astute person always plays fair. The fights in which the cunning person fights are won with intelligence, but also with decency. He who wins with meanness very soon reaps the antipathy and contempt of others, and his victories turn into defeats. He who is truly shrewd never chooses to use illegitimate weapons and forbidden tricks. The manipulator manipulates others with traps and deception. The shrewd one knows that intelligence...

"In order to talk with the dead you have to know how to wait: they are fearful like the first steps of a child. But if we are patient one day they will answer us with a poplar leaf trapped in a broken mirror, with a flame that suddenly revives in the fireplace, with a dark return of birds before the glance of a girl who waits motionless on the threshold." —from "In Order to Talk with the Dead" Reared in the rainy forests of Chile's "La Frontera" region which had nurtured Pablo Neruda a generation earlier, Jorge Teillier has become one of Chile's leading contemporary poets, whose work is widely read in Latin America and Europe along with the poetry of his well-known contemporaries Nicanor Parra and Enrique Lihn. This English-Spanish bilingual anthology now introduces English-speaking readers to Teillier, with a representative selection of his best work from all phases of his career. Carolyne Wright has translated poems from the volumes Muertes y maravillas (1971), Para un pueblo fantasma (1978), and Cartas para reinas de otras primaveras (1985). Avoiding the bravura effects of some of his contemporaries, Teillier writes from a life lived directly and simply, returning time and...
¿Cómo fue realmente la vida a lo largo del siglo XX? En 1910, tres cuartas partes de la población británica pertenecían a la clase trabajadora, pero sus historias han pasado inadvertidas hasta ahora. A partir de los relatos en primera persona de personal doméstico, de obreros, mineros y amas de casa, la reputada historiadora Selina Todd revela una inesperada Gran Bretaña en cuyos cines se alzaban los puños cuando Winston Churchill aparecía en la pantalla, donde las comunidades apoyaban a los huelguistas y quienes ganaban la lotería (como Viv Nicholson) se negaban a volverse «respetables». Trazando el ascenso de la clase obrera a caballo de dos guerras mundiales, hasta una agonía que arranca con Thatcher y que aún hoy se prolonga, Todd cuenta por vez primera la historia de estos hombres y mujeres con sus propias palabras. Desvelando una vasta porción oculta del pasado británico, El pueblo es la vívida historia de un siglo revolucionario y de la gente que realmente forjó el mundo moderno. «La vasta y apasionada historia que compone Selina Todd constituye una contribución más que necesaria al renovado florecimiento del pensamiento sobre las clases sociales en la...

Although the two parts are now published as a single work, Don Quixote, Part Two was a sequel published ten years after the original novel. While Part One was mostly farcical, the second half is more serious and philosophical about the theme of deception. Part Two of Don Quixote explores the concept of a character understanding that he is written about: an idea much explored in the 20th century.

Mirar al cielo suele parecernos un suceso similar al de asomarse a un abismo. El cosmos es para nosotros el reino de lo lejano, el espacio donde yace todo aquello que nunca podremos tocar. Lo que ocurre, sin embargo, es todo lo contrario. No hay nada más cercano que el cielo, nada más propio de nuestra condición que dejarse asombrar por el brillo de un planeta. Todo lo que nos ha ocurrido como especie, todo lo que les ocurrió a las especies que nos precedieron y habrá de ocurrirles a las que nos sigan está íntimamente unido al devenir de los astros. Esto lo sabe muy bien Rafael Bachiller, uno de los pocos científicos profesionales que se esfuerzan por comunicar la ciencia al gran público.
Pocas veces un libro ha penetrado tanto en el imaginario colectivo y la psicología humana como El extraño caso del Dr. Jekyll y Mr. Hyde; incluso hasta formar parte del vocabulario corriente para designar trastornos de doble personalidad. La historia sigue al abogado Gabriel John Utterson por las calles de Londres, quien, ocupándose de los asuntos de sus ricos y aristócratas amigos, llega a ganar la confianza del Dr. Jekyll —científico obsesionado con separar químicamente el bien y el mal— y finalmente poder develar el misterio del malvado asesino Mr. Hyde. Uno de los libros más famosos de la literatura inglesa, es también el modelo definitivo del horror gótico y una lectura obligada para todos los amantes del terror y el suspense. La novela, a la vez que narra una historia que nunca decae en la tensión, explora las diferencias de clase, la teoría evolutiva, el crimen, la doble vida y, especialmente, las adicciones; elementos que muestran su actualidad y relaciones con las situaciones contemporáneas. La prosa de Stevenson es impecable y mantiene la atención a la vez que provoca al pensamiento constante, la atmósfera ha sido lograda perfectamente y la naturaleza...
A beautiful girl named Scarlett was abandoned in a mysterious orphanage and suffers from a tragic ailment—her skin is ultrasensitive to light.
