Prosas de guerra y esperanza: Efraín Huerta en “El Popular” (1939-1944)
Read moreTitle Prosas de guerra y esperanza: Efraín Huerta en “El Popular” (1939-1944) Author Ugalde Quintana, Sergio Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667437 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 592 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis During the years when the threat of the extreme right was taking on a global scope, the public scene in Mexico was disputed between the progressive faction affiliated with the government of Lázaro Cárdenas del Río and a reaction that opposed his policies and did not hide the sympathy that the fascist regimes of Europe inspired in it. In accordance with the demands of the times, the young poet Efraín Huerta did not hesitate to appeal to a “moral, psychological and aesthetic” definition of the artist or the intellectual. It is not surprising, then, the combative tone of many of his contributions to the newspaper that the Cardenistas founded to counteract the attacks that the media conglomerates launched against his government: El Popular. In the not inconsiderable universe of these spaces, until now forgotten by literary historiography and which are presented in this necessary volume, the different facets of a fundamental trajectory for Mexican letters can be read. Although it would seem that political commentary was the main driving force behind Huerta's pen in these columns, they also have room for a diverse spectrum of registers and interests: popular speech, urban spaces, literary reviews, among others. Of all the scenarios outlined in Huerta's more than one thousand one hundred contributions to El Popular, two stand out for their centrality: on the one hand, the political denunciation of world and Mexican fascism; on the other, the response of poetry - and of literature and art in general - to this overwhelming reality. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

It highlights how Spanish went from being a language of conquest to a patrimonial language. Various linguistic strategies that show the strong clash between Spaniards and indigenous peoples, who at first had to find ways to understand each other and make themselves understood, are analyzed, showing how, over the centuries, Spanish in America acquired its own character because of the interbreeding of peoples and languages. foreign rights contact Alejandro Cruz Atienza E-mail a.cruzatienza@colnal.mx -

Someter a los dioses, dudar de las imágenes. Enfoques relacionales en el estudio del arte ritual amerindio
Read moreTitle Someter a los dioses, dudar de las imágenes. Enfoques relacionales en el estudio del arte ritual amerindio. Author Johannes Neurath Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789874434869 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 180 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural anthropology Synopsis How is one to understand the real presence of the beings and characters represented in the rituals and art of Amerindian peoples? Following Gell and Severi, the idea that images have “agency” is currently accepted but could lead to simplifications since artifacts and other ritual actors do not simply have agentivity but condense a multiplicity of forms of symbolization. Amerindian cosmologies recognize the world as unstable and the emphasis is on the need to control processes. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
