Ediciones Idea Por Magnolia Abrante la Machanguita
Book SynopsisJosé Luis Gallardo Navarro, a comienzos de 1981, escribió proféticamente estas palabras sobre la aún escasa narrativa de nuestro autor -formada tan sólo por cuentos y relatos breves-, palabras que definen, bastantes años después, Por Magnolia Abrante, la Machanguita, novela en que un policía prejubilado por alcoholismo relata vivencias suyas y teniendo como referencia en muchas de ellas a una mendiga, Machanguita. Escribió Gallardo: Pocos escritores logran así de golpe producir en nosotros esa desazón punzante que nos induce a confirmamos en las sospecha de que la literatura consiste en algo que nos resulta atractivo sólo porque es inútil. Y, como sin quererlo, sin embargo consigue ponernos los pelos de punta, desde un esquinazo de la escritura, cuando él camina descalzo sobre cristales de botella recién rotos, cortantes. Porque uno ha leído hasta demasiado, hasta las más de las veces o por inercia o por compromiso, tiende a olvidar la necesaria conexión con la vida que haga que la lit

Book SynopsisAlmost four centuries later, The Indiginous Hidalgo Don Quixote De La Mancha continues to be counted as a work of genius. It is the fame of his Don Quixote that has raised him in universal esteem to the height of the greatest literary creators, alongside Homer, Shakespeare and Dante. And, furthermore, with this uniqueness in his favor: while Homer, Shakespeare and Dante express themselves in established literary genres - epic, drama, medieval poetry - Cervantes projects the power of his fascination and influence on modern times as the creator of the modern novel. Don Quixote is not only this prototypical work of a multiform genre; It is also a great poetic creation that has worked in the spirit of modern man with the irresistible force of the most profound myths and symbols of his destiny.

Rizzoli Doris Dukes Shangri La A House in Paradise
Book SynopsisThis inspiring book accompanies the first traveling exhibition about Doris Duke’s estate Shangri La and its influential synthesis of modernist architecture and Islamic art and design. Situated on five acres of terraced gardens and pools overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Honolulu’s Diamond Head, Shangri La was the idyllic paradise of philanthropist Doris Duke, reflecting her personal passion for the art, architecture, and design of the Islamic world. The estate incorporates unique architectural features, such as carved marble doorways, jalis, and floral ceramic tiles, and the decor includes artifacts, such as silk textiles, jewel-toned chandeliers, and gilt and coffered ceilings, many collected during her travels. This volume presents an exclusive tour of Shangri La’s breathtaking interiors and landscape, including the splendid furnishings and art. Archival photographs of Duke and friends as well as correspondence and drawings provide a view into a lifestyle defined byTrade Review "...a process beautifully documented.." ~Wall Street Journal "...a vibrant reference ideal for holiday giving or as a splurge that transports you Into a world of artful design." ~WAG

Bucknell University Press,U.S. Machado de Assis and Narrative Theory: Language,
Book SynopsisThis book makes the argument that Machado de Assis, hailed as one of Latin American literature’s greatest writers, was also a major theoretician of the modern novel form. Steeped in the works of Western literature and an imaginative reader of French Symbolist poetry, Machado creates, between 1880 and 1908, a “new narrative,” one that will presage the groundbreaking theories of Swiss linguist Ferdinand de Saussure by showing how even the language of narrative cannot escape being elusive and ambiguous in terms of meaning. It is from this discovery about the nature of language as a self-referential semiotic system that Machado crafts his “new narrative.” Long celebrated in Brazil as a dazzlingly original writer, Machado has struggled to gain respect and attention outside the Luso-Brazilian ken. He is the epitome of the “outsider” or “marginal,” the iconoclastic and wildly innovative genius who hails from a culture rarely studied in the Western literary hierarchy and so consigned to the status of “eccentric.” Had the Brazilian master written not in Portuguese but English, French, or German, he would today be regarded as one of the true exemplars of the modern novel, in expression as well as in theory. Published by Bucknell University Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press.Trade Review"Earl E. Fitz advances the question of language as key to innovation and modernity in the mature works of Machado de Assis. Fitz attributes his departure from realism to a new awareness of the mutability, instability, self-referentiality and inescapable ambiguity of language in relation to meaning. What the novels are really about is not what they seem." -- K. David Jackson * Yale University *Is Machado de Assis a theoretician of the novel? Earl Fitz’s book is a fascinating response to such a question. In this exciting journey through the writer’s late novels, we learn that Machado didn’t tell us what he was thinking; differently, he showed us the very act of thinking through language. It’s worth reading: Fitz’s passion for Machado is contagious. -- Pedro Meira Monteiro, Arthur W. Marks ’19 Professor of Spanish and Portuguese * Princeton University *"A masterwork of original and seminal scholarship that rescues a critically important Latin American writer from an undeserved obscurity." * Midwest Book Review *"Earl Fitz’s book should be appreciated as a complement to the many other excellent studies of Machado’s relation to a plentiful external landscape. Lest we become overly confident about our ability to know these realities, we should pause and, considering perspectives like those of this book, clean our glasses." * Journal of Lusophone Studies *"Fitz’s study provides a strong argument for why scholars interested in narrative theory and form should give, if not renewed, then new attention to the work of Machado de Assis." * Bulletin of Spanish Studies *"[A] passionate and convincingly argued monograph...Fitz’s study makes a vital contribution to Machadoan criticism in that it highlights, perhaps more clearly, more forcefully, and in more detail than previously offered, the holistic view Machado came to embrace of narrative as a dynamic confluence of unstable signs capable of creating seemingly stable realities." * Hispania *"Along with the translation of more works by Brazilian writers and scholars alike, books like Machado de Assis and Narrative Theory pave the way for the reception of literary works that, otherwise, remain regrettably off the radar even among many in academia." * Hispanic Review *"Earl E.

La santita
Book SynopsisLa Santita es una apertura de mundos cosmopoéticos en los que las fronteras entre cuerpo y espíritu, cultura y naturaleza, femenino y masculino, lo lúdico y lo racional, la ciencia y la magia se desvanecen. En siete historias, la autora organiza universos en los que los manglares, las gallinas, las rocas volcánicas, las cenizas, Owi Wan Kenobi o Cristal se encuentran y tejen vínculos que ponen en juego la existencia de otras realidades (no necesariamente occidentales) que escapan a los límites de tiempo y espacio y vivos y muertos. Inspirada en las cosmologías del mundo andino y sus violencias profundas, Moscoso hace magia con las palabras, inventa ritmos y trae referencias de la cultura popular junto a otra cultura pop ancestral. Rompecabezas de referencias tan reconocible en el imaginario de Moscoso y en tantísimos puntos de América. Pósters de Chayanne y Hello Kitty entre viviendas precarias, vegetación random, terrenos vacíos, casas hechas con ladrillos sin pintar ni revocar, ciuda

Alianza Editorial Don Quijote de la Mancha 2
Book SynopsisSi bien Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616) gustaba de presentarlo como ?la historia de un hijo seco y avellanado?, el ?Quijote? es la obra cumbre de su labor literaria, uno de los libros fundamentales de la cultura universal y, como novela, la más grande de todos los tiempos y aquella en que hunde sus raíces la narrativa moderna. La presente edición, precedida de una esclarecedora introducción de Antonio Rey que sitúa la obra dentro del contexto de la vida de su autor y de la época en que fue escrita, ha corrido a cargo de Florencio Sevilla, quien se ha guiado por un criterio de absoluta fidelidad al texto de la príncipe, a fin de ofrecer un ?Quijote? lo más próximo posible al original que Cervantes concibiera.

Debolsillo Ligero de equipaje La vida de Antonio Machado
Book SynopsisIan Gibson se centra en el personaje de Antonio Machado en esta biografía que no desdeña apuntes de crítica literaria. Como siempre, tan apasionado como bien documentado, Gibson retrata todos los rostros de Antonio Machado, poeta en tiempo de guerra.Antonio Machado (1875-1938) es uno de los poetas españoles más leídos y amados de todos los tiempos. Pero cuál es su historia? Cómo se forjó el carácter y la personalidad de esta figura capital de nuestra literatura?Ian Gibson se propone en este magnífico ensayo desgranar la vida del autor de Soledades (1903), Campos de Castilla (1912) y Juan de Mairena (1936) en un ejercicio intenso y a la vez ágil que repasa los hechos que marcaron su asombrosa trayectoria. Víctima de la guerra de España, Machado murió exiliado en Collioure, ligero, como siempre, de equipaje, pero portando el legado una obra irrepetible.Reseña:Una biografía rigurosísima y de prosa muy ágil que solo puede escribir un ex jugador de rugby como es el genial irlandés -y español: tiene nuestra nacionalidad- Ian Gibson.Ramón Irigoyen, El País
