Excited because a long weekend is approaching, Homero, Tor, Érika, Alain, Selene, Indra and Yanira decide to go to Tepoztlán to rest. There they meet Pancho -a local boy- who invites them to climb Tepozteco, but on a not so usual path, which will take them to the heart of the mountain where they will learn, first hand, about pre-Hispanic mythology and many of its customs. The presence of the children and their entrance into the sanctuary will unleash a struggle between deities: some, like Tonantzin, will seek to protect them, while others will try to sacrifice them, leaving behind the teachings of Quetzalcoatl. José Agustín narrates the adventures of the protagonists with great ease: his agility in narrating their adventures, intertwining them with the ancient world, is surprising. foreign rights contact Quetzalli de la Concha Oswaldo Muñoz

For the author, words can paint and pictures can be read. Reflection on these movements and exchanges allow to deepen the reflexive dimension of representation, its “opacity”. The art of portraiture explores the intertwinements between discourse and image, between reading and seeing, themes that accompanied Louis Marin throughout his life.”" foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

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?

Transporte a la infancia
Read moreTitle Transporte a la infancia Author Cartas, Frida Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851447 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 152 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Here, memory is not cloudy. There are traces that have been left clean after the insatiable trampling of violence. Wherever this story takes place, the heat of the climate is tempered and what boils is the horror of prejudice. Father, mother, son, daughter, boy, girl, good, bad, yes, no: inside these pages the world struggles between dualisms and those who do not fit in there are denied, mistreated, excluded. Through everyday anecdotes we learn about the events that determined the identity of the author and various aspects of reality rarely explored in literature. Frida Cartas recalls a childhood that left no space for her name, nor for her voice, nor for her body. In some stories, an unusual tenderness prevails; in many, the crudeness of incessant abuse; In others, an inexplicable humor or a coldness that dissects events to tell us something: that the most atrocious violence can inhabit our bodies, but also the most lively and resilient courage towards life. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

In history there are only rare moments when certain works of art transform the world. Located in an instance of transition, “The Origin of the Work of Art” is an oasis, a fertile place, which allows Heidegger to overcome a project that begins to desertify, Being and Time, to take the necessary impulses to revivify his thought, the philosophy of Ereignis.

El encarguito
Read moreTitle El encarguito Author Sheridan, Guillermo Publisher Trilce Ediciones Imprint Trilce Ediciones ISBN 9786078745036 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages – Format Digital THEMA Language and Linguistics Synopsis This work brings together the chronicles that Guillermo Sheridan published in the magazine Letras Libres between 1999 and 2006, and some that have appeared in the newspaper Reforma. A deeply rooted custom and inextricable usage that speaks to the Mexican confusion about the uses of affection, the "encarguito"—thing and message, object and symbol—is an elaborate form of nightmare. The choice of the object to be commissioned falls within what in the theory of Mexican identity is known as "ocurrencia" or "detallito" (little detail), a phenomenon that consists of applying ingenuity to the meticulous concoction of a nonsense. foreign rights contact Déborah Holtz E-mail deborah@trilce.com.mx
