What role do others, objects and movement play in the development of the body schema? The importance of the study of infancy within Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology lies in the desire to unravel the very genesis of our perception. In dialogue with the works of Jean Piaget and Henri Wallon, Merleau-Ponty analyzes child development from a perspective that considers the material conditions that surround the child and the bonds that they establish with their caregivers as defining elements of their being in the world. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667406 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 264 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Esteban Arévalo is a man who dresses badly. This would not be of great importance if it were not for the fact that the disheveled appearance of his worn-out old clothes – which he continues to wear out of conviction, not necessity – arouses the deepest distrust among his neighbors in the Tacubaya neighborhood: rumors point to him as the main suspect of having committed eight murders. Blaise Rodríguez, the narrator of this story, is determined to prove Esteban Arévalo’s innocence. Contrary to the roughness that people expect from a guy who takes so little care in his attire, the protagonist is rather kind, polite and quite cultured. Would it be possible for a man with no major existential aspirations and who remains gentle even when he is treated with rejection to become a cruel murderer? What would be his reasons for killing? The Badly Dressed Man poses a critical reflection on murder, intolerance and fear of difference, in a present of extreme violence where physical appearance takes on radical importance as a crucible of status, identity and class aspirations. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764761 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 456 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Convinced that Mexico City may not be the most advisable region to live in, but also that it is so intricate and exciting that it is impossible to leave it, Juan Villoro proposes this book written from the devotion of the recalcitrant and amazed urbanite that unfolds like an infinite puzzle: the shortcuts, the wrestling movies, the national heroes, the Tepiteño commerce, the government paperwork, the enigma of the tire repair shops, the countless crowds, the consumption of chili, the ancestral temples. The author also narrates certain autobiographical passages, such as the last walk with his grandmother or the memory of the neighborhood of abandoned houses where he grew up. With an attentive gaze and a firm pulse, Villoro unfolds as a journalist, passerby, pen buyer, nostalgic adult, responsible father, emergency brigade member, and offers us a testimony of the multiple adventures that the city has in store for each and every one of its members. Whether from his own experience or through listening to and investigating other people's realities, Juan Villoro composes a great fresco of the endearing and eternal chaos that makes up the country's capital. The space in which nothing fits anymore, but nothing is ever left over: Chilangópolis. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx
