Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667253 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 184 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis «Barry Gifford, the father of Perdita Durango and Romeo Dolorosa, is known for his fondness for giving his fictional characters sonorous and picturesque names... What is behind Gifford's fondness for picturesque appellations? » Many things: the loneliness of the border, of that mythical territory between the United States and Mexico, and the loneliness of all men... portraits turned to dust and wind. » Roberto Bolaño In the border region between Coahuila and Texas, near Piedras Negras, a tribe of Seminole Indians seeks to escape persecution by the United States government. The blood and culture of the Creeks and the black slaves who have escaped from the plantations live and mix there; together they look for a place to live and prosper in peace. The Mexican government offers them Birth in exchange for fighting against the local native rebels. However, this territory is more porous and conflictive than it seems at first glance and, as the story progresses, the battle fronts multiply. Cass Dupuy, a retired ranger, will try all kinds of alliances to get a cut of the inhuman business of slavery. Teresa, his daughter, is a brave young woman who flees from her father's ranch in the company of Sonny, the son of a legendary Seminole chief. These characters trace, at the center of the story, a story of love and revenge that opens a path between blood and bullets. The hunch leads us through a territory of adventure and heroism. Barry Gifford is one of those rare writers who moves us, touches us and shakes us on the same page. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Pirrón de Élide Author Marían Fernanda Toribio Gutiérrez Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918532 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 202 Format Printed THEMA Ancient philosophy Synopsis Pyrrhon of Élide has always been surrounded by mystery. He is without being, he belongs without belonging. It is not strange, then, that the words that make up what of his life and thought has come down to us are the same words that define the ambiguous state of his reception: as the philosopher-character that he is, he is for us equally indifferent, unstable and indeterminate. This book seeks to show to what extent Pyrrhon's life can be interpreted as a struggle against the vanity of a dogmatism that threatens to sacrifice everything. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Hacia un pensamiento islámico decolonial Author Adlbi Sibai, Sirin Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786079564186 Edition number 1 Publication year 2016 Pages 320 Format Printed THEMA Epistemology. causality. human gender Synopsis Inspired mainly by Latin American decolonial thought, the so-called Third Wave feminisms and the Islamic thought of the Moroccan philosopher Taha Abderrahman, this work proposes a profound critique of the epistemological foundations of Islamic feminisms, while exploring the urgency of a decolonial Islamic thought as the answer and perhaps the only, but not unified, possible solution to the crisis of contemporary Islamic thought. It is an invitation to begin a different journey of true Islamic intracultural and intracivilizational dialogic introspection whose basic premise is paradoxically based on "the consciousness of Non-Being" in the context of the "empire of the annulment of the Other" and that offers us real possibilities of liberation and regeneration, as well as an anti-capitalist, anti-sexist, anti-patriarchal, anti-racist, anti-class and anti-colonial reintegration into the presents and futures from which, as colonized subjects, we have been expelled. From a renewed decolonial reading of Islamophobia as one of the structures of power, control, government and subalternization of Islam and Muslims in the modern/colonial world-system, this research shows how Islamic feminist discourses are a reactive response to it. . In this sense, they can be read from what Judith Butler has called "the paradox of subjectivization", which is that the discourses that resist such norms are themselves enabled or created, even by those same norms, which represents a constitutive limitation that, although it does not annul their capacity for social agency, does turn them into repetitive or rearticulating discourses inherent to power. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -

The former, in spite of himself, had to accept the latter as son-in-law. Liszt generously offered his genius as a pianist and composer; Wagner used his extraordinary talent to revolutionize opera and satisfy his narcissism. Although very different in terms of personality, Franz and Richard had at least one thing in common: they both produced astonishingly original works. Here is the story of their journey and the end of their lives. foreign rights contact Alejandro Cruz Atienza E-mail a.cruzatienza@colnal.mx -
