Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667208 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 184 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The Trace is a text that talks about a burial, and the feelings of the protagonist when she contemplates the body of a man with whom she lived for a long time, whom she has stopped seeing and whom she sees again, now bloodless, and the memory of that body when it was alive and shared a very intense love relationship with the person who looks at it. But, by doing so, that is, by reviving it in writing, the decay of the body is cancelled. Writing allows us to give life to things again. Of course, writing is, on a certain level, a dead body by the very fact that it is something that is written and the book is an object, but by having the possibility of writing, of recreating something, life is recovered. This is the most beautiful thing about writing, the possibility of resurrecting that which disappears.

Lenguaje inclusivo y exclusión de clase

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851454 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 200 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis What does it mean to talk about inclusion in linguistic terms? Who is included (and who is not) in the discourse that speaks (and why)? Can inclusive language solve the problem of structural exclusion of language, which is in turn the materialization of other structural and structuring exclusions of subjectivities (social class, race/ethnicity, possession of cultural capital, etc.), simply by using the “a,” the “e,” the “x,” the “@” or any other symbol? In this lucid text – a reference in Spain and which now extends the conversation to other latitudes in a revised and expanded edition, with a prologue by Yásnaya Aguilar – Brigitte Vasallo transcends the discussion on “linguistic incorrectness” and places the debate on inclusive language in the field of political practice. For Vasallo, the answer lies in finding a use of language that shows restlessness and generates noise, and thus, finding new ways of naming. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Convinced that these disasters should be told with the most representative voices involved, Villoro took the stories of his fellow earthquake survivors and built a concert of impressions that is not lacking in suspense or absurdity. “After reading this heartfelt and vibrant book, one might think that the author did not tell the whole truth: 8.8 was written with fear still in the skin, and perhaps in that secret lies its extraordinary power.” -Leonardo Tarifeño foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Ää: manifiestos sobre la diversidad lingüística
Read moreTitle Ää: manifiestos sobre la diversidad lingüística Author Aguilar Gil, Yásnaya Elena Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764792 Edition number 2 Publication year 2022 Pages 208 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Reading the articles by Yásnaya Aguilar compiled in this volume, as well as the many comments on social media that accompany and enrich them, is a pleasure that I wholeheartedly recommend to readers. Throughout these texts, as entertaining as they are refreshing, it is clear that Yásnaya Aguilar has been able to see beyond impositions and violence, driven by her deep passion for languages, for linguistics, for literature, to go beyond the confines of her native Ayuujk and her learned Spanish, to approach the most widely spoken languages in the world, such as Russian, but also the countless indigenous languages that throughout the planet are marginalized, threatened and, sometimes, on the verge of extinction. In his unpretentious use of the plain Mexican dialect of Castilian, the constant generosity of his style, his humor and sincerity stand out, which allows him to construct a defense as passionate as it is reasonable, as rigorous as it is entertaining, of the value of indigenous languages, of cultural plurality, of the vitality of the traditions of our native peoples. This clarity also gives greater force to his denunciations against linguistic discrimination, against the contempt for indigenous languages and against the arrogance of the defenders of Spanish as the national language. Written over the course of a decade, this book is destined to be an exponent of an authentic blossoming and renaissance of contemporary thought in indigenous languages.
