Etnografía en contextos críticos Author José Joel Lara González; Marina Alonso Bolaños; Juan José Atilano Flores; Reyes Luciano Álvarez Fabela; Benjamín Muratalla Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918792 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 144 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural anthropology Synopsis This work highlights and analyzes the risks involved in fieldwork in different contexts, often in the face of a reality that surprises, disturbs and amazes. These are reflections that seek to understand the anthropological experience in the face of otherness, such as the prevailing submission among social groups with colonial overtones; the taboos surrounding the work of women anthropologists; the places where violence is the daily struggle for life itself and the raid of the narco in the music production industry. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

La raiz negra de los astros
Read moreTitle La raiz negra de los astros Author Nadia Escalante Andrade Publisher Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Imprint Dirección General de Publicaciones y Fomento Editorial ISBN 9786073072762 Edition number Primera edición Publication year 2023 Pages 56 Format Print and digital THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies Synopsis "Every poem is a map" writes Escalante and, indeed, the cartographic exercises contained in this book chart a return to language, they make use of the verbal as raw material to reconstruct a sense and a desire of their own to inhabit the world. The speaker, marked by an elective silence yet conscious of that other silence imposed on the women who preceded us, uses the world carefully, extensively, like someone who germinates seeds underground. foreign rights contact Lic.

Toda la sangre
Read moreTitle Toda la sangre Author Esquinca, Bernardo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764723 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 320 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis I will never forget the sound of the drums of the shell collectors at night, while I tried to fall asleep in an old building on Donceles Street. It seemed like a sinister warning: beneath there is a city that beats and breathes, with gods who have not died; let us pay tribute to them, because one day that world will return... It is impossible to sleep next to the Templo Mayor without being influenced by those ancient stones, by the voices that whisper from the ruins during the early hours of the morning. My mind began to imagine a story to ward off the insomnia that this invocation to the ancient and mysterious side of the city caused me. I wanted to understand where we come from, and why it is difficult to reconcile ourselves with our pre-Hispanic origins; especially with the human sacrifices practiced by the Aztecs. This novel unites past and present in the same secret plot: the obsidian knives that ripped out hearts, the homeless people who swarm the streets of the Center, the colonial buildings with tezontle facades, the abandoned concrete buildings on the edge of large avenues, the sensationalist publications and their language of violence, the archaeological windows that tell of a lost splendor; a riddle whose main character is Mexico City, the place where any situation is possible. Archaeologists turned detectives, vagabonds dressed in human skins, secret tunnels and catacombs under the asphalt of the city, and a ritual murderer with an apocalyptic mission. All the Blood is a thriller about the universe of myths and the realm of the “real”; both are needed because they feed off each other. In the middle are we, puppets of forces that we sense and prefer to ignore. Until the sound of the drums reaches our door.

Antología de Enrique Dusse. La Filosofía de la Liberación
Read moreTitle Antología de Enrique Dusse. La Filosofía de la Liberación Author Dussel Ambrosini, Enrique Domingo; Bautista Segales, Juan José; Colmenares Lizárraga, Katya Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786078683628 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 992 Format Printed THEMA Critical philosophy Synopsis This anthology shows the fundamental thesis of the Philosophy of Liberation as a thinking that arises from a locus enuntiationis (place of enunciation) located in the exterior, on the geopolitical, cultural, economic, political, military periphery of the global South, with an active position in living in a dependent, neocolonial world. As an act of decolonizing rebellion, the Philosophy of Liberation observed in dominated peoples, excluded from modern civilization—and, therefore, from its thought—the opportunity to display a broader horizon than that of mere Eurocentrism. Starting from world history, Dussel situates philosophical thinking from the otherness of the Other, nothingness, non-being, “the widow, the orphan, the stranger” (as Hammurabi describes them in his Babylonian code of law) and the poor, an alterity from which criticism can be made of any system (economic, political, epistemological, philosophical, gender, cultural, racial, etc.) that closes on itself. Dussel is inspired by his favorite authors (Latin American and European, from Salazar Bondy or Freire to Sartre or Heidegger, including Hinkelammert, Levinas, Zea, Ricoeur or Benjamin) and subsumes them in a new decolonizing and critical discourse. The result is not only a new vision of world history, but also new philosophical categories that are refined, specified, as the debates, the years, and the existential places from which one thinks. The intercultural interpellation of indigenous peoples is strengthening the original theses of the Philosophy of Liberation. This work is dedicated in memory of Dr. Juan José Bautista (+2021), who left us too soon, and his wife Dr. Katya Colmenares who prepared this anthology and wrote its introduction. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -
Corazón de mierda
Read moreTitle Corazón de mierda Author Gonzalo Lizardo Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074455212 Edition number 1 Publication year 2012 Pages 123 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis In this novel we salute the fortunate appearance of the youngest of our line of picaresque characters. Narrated from a calm old age, it is a story of orphanage, crime, heartbreak and atonement, all common themes to the Lazarillo de Tormes, Periquillo Sarniento and Candingas, a smiling devil that lends his name to the protagonist of this novel. But even if the subjects are the same, the passage through a voice changes them. As he speaks, while he narrates, the voice, at times slang, at times poetic but always juicy, becomes the real main character of this delicious novel. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx
