In this way, numerous intertexts are evident, which also outline a rather explicit poetics and canon [...] It is through this type of procedures that D´Annunzio the novelist, whose imprint defines this book, avoids the structures of the classical novel that decades earlier had been established by Honoré de Balzac and Stendhal. foreign rights contact Lic.

Implicación y lazo emergente Author Ariel Gravano Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878384160 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 155 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural anthropology Synopsis The desire to understand others and their worlds is not only an ambition of the anthropologist, but also of practitioners who, focused on face-to-face relationships, need both an “intellectually critical” knowledge of the addressees themselves and their world and a critical awareness of their effects on interaction with them. This book illustrates an exemplary avenue offered by anthropological research, assuming that unease and vulnerability as constitutive of the gesture of understanding. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Miroslav, el vampiro
Read moreTitle Miroslav, el vampiro Author Pedro Aparicio Herrera Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9786316503510 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 272 Format Printed THEMA Horror & supernatural fiction Synopsis Miroslav, the vampire is a novel that breaks the stereotype of the character created by John Polidori and polished by Bram Stoker in his works The Vampire and Dracula. Here the central character is a being whose vital drives are his very essence: love, temper and desire. A work of action and suspense that contrasts scenarios separated by the fracture between life and death, passion and loneliness, cowardice and unfettered friendship, framed by the dazzle of sensuality, whether in the form of the affable tasting of an exquisite wine, the deepest meaning of affection or the delight of the female body: the perpetual salvation of the soul.

Cascarón roto
Read moreTitle Cascarón roto Author López Mills, Tedi Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764099 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 152 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis El nuevo libro de Tedi López Mills se compone de tres ensayos en los que la formación de filósofa de la autora, así como su gran calidad literaria y perspicaz pensamiento, salen a relucir de forma grácil y deslumbrante. En el primero, “Aviones”, la autora trabaja sobre la experiencia de la despedida, la incertidumbre a la que da lugar el alejarse de los seres a los que nos unen vínculos afectivos. Como eje narrativo de este ensayo está la historia de Ted Mills, tío de la autora que falleció trágicamente al estrellarse el avión de combate que piloteaba. Por otro lado, “Cascarón roto” es una reflexión sobre los planteamientos que numerosos pensadores clásicos (Platón, Aristóteles, Diógenes Laercio, Cicerón) hicieron sobre la amistad, mismos que son contrapunteados por ejemplos cotidianos de la vida contemporánea: conversaciones, malentendidos, sobre interpretaciones de lo dicho, es decir, los deslices y tropiezos que toda amistad atraviesa. En “Impertinencia”, la identidad nacional es encarnada por disputas lingüísticas que se inspiran en formulaciones de pensadores como Guillermo Sheridan, José Vasconcelos y, sobre todo, Carlos Monsiváis, así como con recuerdos de las discusiones y comentarios comunes en los pasillos de la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la UNAM: lo nacional entendido como una formación del habla pero, también, como la propia historia y memoria. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
