Rutgers University Press Infortunios de Alonso Ramirez The Misfortunes
Book SynopsisIn 2009, 319 years after its publication, and following over a century of copious scholarly speculation about the work, José F. Buscaglia is the first scholar to furnish direct and irrefutable proof that the story contained in the Infortunios/Misfortunes is based on the life and times of a man certifiably named Alonso Ramírez.Trade Review"Buscaglia's Spanish-English edition of Siguenza y Gongora's greatest work is a magnificent illustration of what the fields of history and literature can offer when they are brought together. And it is fun to read, to boot! The text takes readers on a fascinating, whirlwind tour through the interlocking worlds of seventeenth-century Mexico and Southeast Asia." -- Camilla Townsend * author of Malintzin's Choices: An Indian Woman in the Conquest of Mexico *“Buscaglia-Salgado’s bilingual edition of Infortunios de Alonso Ramirez/The Misfortunes of Alonso Ramirez is an essential contribution. Multi-faceted and meticulously researched, it situates the story in the context of a global history of empires and piracy, opening new channels for further analysis and research. Deftly deciphering documents in colonial archives, questioning editorial practices, sketching maps, and revisiting his own sailing voyages, Buscaglia-Salgado has tracked Ramírez’s routes, uncovering some of the mysteries surrounding the protagonist and making visible a global historical process.” -- Arcadio Díaz-Quiñones * Princeton University *"Buscaglia's Spanish-English edition of Siguenza y Gongora's greatest work is a magnificent illustration of what the fields of history and literature can offer when they are brought together.

Impedimenta Los infortunios de Svoboda
Book SynopsisEstamos en un pequeño pueblo de Bohemia donde nunca pasa nada. Los trenes que paran en la estación rara vez traen a nadie interesante. Svoboda, un tipo algo ingenuo y simplón, frecuenta sus andenes desde hace un cuarto de siglo y se dedica a ayudar a los pasajeros a cargar su equipaje. Hasta que un día, en 1939, las tropas alemanas invaden la ciudad, y el porteador aficionado se ve acusado sin saber muy bien cómo de organizar un atentado para matar a Hitler... Tras la suerte del necio Svoboda adivinamos la historia de todo un país, desgarradora y absurda, como vista por el lado equivocado de un telescopio. Los infortunios de Svoboda, una novela magistral donde la sátira se mezcla con la ternura, trata sobre la facilidad con que fabricamos cobardes y mártires, todo con olímpico desprecio hacia cualquier valor humano.János Székely es uno de los mejores escritores húngaros de todos los tiempos.

Penn State University The Infortunate The Voyage and Adventures of
Book SynopsisFirst published by Penn State Press in 1992, William Moraley's first-hand account of bound servitude provides a glimpse of life among the lower classes in England and the American colonies during the 18th century. This revised edition features additional information and shows how to read and interpret Moraley's autobiography.Trade Review“Those of us who have too long savored the autobiography of Benjamin Franklin as being an account of a typical poor man’s rise to wealth and power in the new United States will welcome this account of the more usual fate of a common ordinary person in Colonial and Federal America. . . . Filled with half-truths and whole lies, it nevertheless is a valuable—almost priceless—document about life in the early U.S.”—Ray B. Browne Journal of American Culture“The adventures of William Moraley depict not the rags-to-riches tale, the model so often used to describe mobility in colonial America, but rather the saga of one who never earned a decent competency. . . . Klepp and Smith have provided readers with a valuable glimpse of how those on the margins struggled, however in vain, in the ‘best poor man’s country.’”—Sharon V.

Stanford University Press When Misfortune Becomes Injustice: Evolving Human
Book SynopsisWhen Misfortune Becomes Injustice surveys the progress and challenges in deploying human rights to advance health and social equality over recent decades. Alicia Ely Yamin weaves together theory and firsthand experience in a compelling narrative of how evolving legal norms, empirical knowledge, and development paradigms have interacted in the realization of health rights, and challenges us to consider why these advances have failed to produce greater equality within and between nations. In this revised and expanded second edition, Yamin incorporates crucial lessons learned about the state of global health equity and public health systems during the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrating just how incompatible the current institutionalized world order—based on neoliberal, financialized capitalism—is with one in which the rights of diverse people around the globe can be realized. COVID-19 struck a world that had been shaped by decades of disinvestment in public health, health systems, and social protection, as well as privatization of wealth and gaping social inequalities within and between countries, and the evident crisis of confidence in the capacity of democratic political institutions and global governance was deepened by the pandemic. Yamin argues that transformative human rights praxis in health calls for addressing issues of structural inequality and political economy, and working across disciplinary silos through networks and social movements.Trade Review"In an increasingly unequal, fragmented, and unaccountable global order in which intellectual property rights trump health rights, this extraordinary book is a powerful call – by a scholar-activist dedicated to converting 'misfortune to be endured into injustice to be remedied' – to pursue human rights transformatively, to advance connection, dignity, equality, and social justice."—Jackie Dugard, Columbia University"This book makes you believe in the power of invoking human rights to advance health justice, especially if you're doubtful, despondent, or simply new to the topic. It is filled with stories that ignite a fire in you to do something, and insights to think through what you might do."—Seye Abimbola, University of Sydney"Alicia Yamin is able to combine, in a way that very few authors can, a sensitive and empathetic account of the tragic consequences of the widespread denial of the right to health with a deeply informed critique of global health policies. This book offers not only deep insights into the struggles to achieve health and social equality, but explains in highly readable and accessible terms what needs to be done. A wonderful read and an inspired guide."—Philip Alston, Pomeroy Professor of Law at New York University and former UN Special Rapporteur on Extreme Poverty and Human Rights (2014-2020)"Yamin's book is a story of hope and the resilience that highlights how individuals, communities, and societies can confront power asymmetries and shift them to realise their health and human rights. The book provides a compelling account for students of health and human rights and for advocates on how human rights can be applied to transform the narrative from 'misfortune to be endured' to one of 'injustice to be remedied'."—Rajat Khosla, The Lancet"Yamin's book is a 'must read' for those emerged in the struggle for a healthy society, and for students of any stage of learning who seek to understand the history of and the potential of the human right to health."—Louise C. Ivers, ReVista: Harvard Review of Latin AmericaPraise for the first edition "Yamin draws on years of practical field experience to speak with unique authority among human rights scholars about the global and national dynamics that systematically produce poverty and health inequalities across the world."—Paul E. Farmer, Harvard University, and Co-Founder and Chief Strategist of Partners In HealthTable of ContentsIntroduction: Allegorizing the World Chapter 1: Indignation and Injustice Chapter 2: The Significances of Suffering Chapter 3: Diverging Parables of Progress Chapter 4: Dystopian Modernization Chapter 5: Global Crises, Pandemics, and Norms Chapter 6: Inequality, Democracy, and Health Rights Chapter 7: Power, Politics, and Knowledge Conclusions: The Struggle for the World We Want

El desafortunado
Book SynopsisDesde que huyó de Europa, Adolf Eichmann ha vivido escondido. Tras el nombre falso de Ricardo Klement se ha establecido en Argentina, donde llegó en 1950 y consiguió trabajo, amparado por la comunidad alemana. Dos años después, su familia se reúne con él. El desafortunado es la crónica de esos últimos años de libertad, hasta que es capturado por el Mossad en 1960. Recuerdos y reflexiones personales se mezclan con una vida discreta, para ofrecer una imagen muy precisa del criminal, de sus razonamientos que justifican las atrocidades cometidas, de su convencimiento de estar sirviendo una causa honrada quebusca el bien.El desafortunado es una espléndida novela que reconstruye los últimos años de Adolf Eichmann en Argentina. Es el retrato frío y aséptico del llamado arquitecto del Holocausto, uno de los criminales de guerra más crueles del nazismo, responsable de las deportaciones y de aplicar la Solución final. Sin juzgarlo y sin hacer un esfuerzo por retratarlo como un ser abominable, pero a la vez sin mostrar ningún rastro de empatía, sólo sirviéndose de hechos objetivos mezclados con las reflexiones del nazi (tomadas de sus propias declaraciones), el autor presenta a un personaje que participó en la aniquilación de seis millones de personas creyendo estar haciendo lo justo.

John Wiley & Sons When Misfortune Becomes Injustice
Book SynopsisWhen Misfortune Becomes Injustice surveys the progress and challenges in deploying human rights to advance health and social equality over recent decades, with a focus on women''s health and rights. Yamin weaves together theory and firsthand experience in a compelling narrative of how evolving legal norms, empirical knowledge, and development paradigms have interacted in the realization of health rights.When Misfortune Becomes Injustice reveals extraordinary progress in recognizing health-related claims as legal rights and understanding the policy implications of doing so over the last few decades. Yet Yamin challenges us to consider why these advances have failed to produce greater equality within and between nations, and how the human rights praxis must now urgently address threats to social and gender justice, in health and beyond.

This unique volume utilizes the client's voice through metaphor, art, and play as reflected in a rich cornucopia of case studies. Clinicians can easily delve into evidence-informed trauma approaches that will enhance their treatment repertoire. Rich samples of child, teen, and adult client art, sandtray, and metaphor enliven powerful and moving case studies. This is an important volume for clinicians, regardless of level of training, to have in their professional library."Athena A. Drewes, PsyD, MA, MSEd, RPT-S, past president and founder emeritus, New York Association of Play Therapy, and director of clinical training and the APA-accredited doctoral internship, Astor Services for Children and Families, Rhinebeck, New York"Dr. Pernicano has once again created a unique resource that all trauma-informed practitioners can immediately apply to their work with clients across the lifespan. Detailed case examples bring Pernicano’s methods to life and illustrate just how meaningful stories and creative interventions can positively impact a wide range of challenges, including abuse, grief, addiction, and attachment problems. The framework and practical concepts presented in this user-friendly book will help both new and experienced therapists individualize treatment through the use of stories that not only engage clients but also effectively enhance their emotional reparation and recovery."Cathy Malchiodi, PhD, LPCC, LPAT, ATR-BC, REAT, executive director, Trauma-Informed Practices and Expressive Arts Therapy Institute, Louisville, Kentucky"A clearly written, comprehensive description of the role of metaphors and stories in the treatment of trauma across the ages. Highly recommended!"Charles E. Schaefer, PhD, RPT-S, professor emeritus of psychology, Fairleigh Dickinson University, Teaneck, New Jersey, and cofounder and director, The Association for Play Therapy, Clovis, California"Pat Pernicano is a clinician who speaks from the heart. She blends evidence, art, play, and stories to understand and communicate therapy’s most important trauma-informed messages to the most important and often the most vulnerable: kids, teens, and adults suffering from trauma. Packed with case examples, playful interventions, pragmatic approaches, and illustrative art and metaphors, this book guides the reader through integrative approaches for maximizing effectiveness in therapy. Don’t miss out on this treasure."George W. Burns, PhD, adjunct professor of psychology, Cairnmillar Institute, Melbourne, Australia, and author of eight books, including 101 Stories for Enhancing Happiness and Well-Being"What is unusual about this book is the juxtaposition of metaphor/storytelling and a wide range of trauma cases. It is also unique in presenting child, adolescent, and adult cases. This book describes a wealth of case material within clearly articulated case conceptualizations. In addition, there is sufficient detail of the techniques used—including pictures, metaphors, and stories—that the reader can easily apply the technique in their own practice. This book is a worthwhile read for beginning and seasoned therapists alike."Helen Benedict, PhD, RPT-S, professor of psychology and director of clinical training, Baylor University, Waco, TexasTable of ContentsForeword Helen Benedict Acknowledgements Introduction Part I: The Tools of the Trade 1.
