¿De quién es el 24 de marzo? Memoria, historia y política
Read moreTitle ¿De quién es el 24 de marzo? Memoria, historia y política Author Federico Lorenz Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9786316503374 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 180 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural history Synopsis The approach to consumption as ritual greatly expands the understanding of society itself, as it offers reflections on the mechanisms of transfer of meaning from the cultural and socially constituted world to individuals, through privileged vectors of signs such as the fashion system, the advertising ecology and the soap opera. To conclude, the text deals with the limits of consumption, an issue that opens the work, reaching the understanding that there are clear limits to consumption, which are civic, moral and affective. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
El asedio animal
Read moreTitle El asedio animal Author Londoño, Vanessa Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764471 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 112 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In Hukuméiji, a town located in the north of Colombia, near the Don Diego River and the Caribbean Sea, the characters in the four stories that make up this novel are stripped of parts of their body—their tongue, hands, legs, eyes—they suffer the death of their loved ones, and they have even been stripped of their land or crops; that is, they suffer the mutilation of the different parts that make them up. Thus, the body becomes a system to explain loss, so that the author weaves a writing that embodies the pain and ravages of violence exercised by power anywhere in the world. Likewise, nature—present in the stories through the jungle, plants, crops, or torrential rains—links human bodies with the territory: violence is executed on bodies and land in an analogous way. If, as journalist Ana Teresa Toro says, in Latin America “the body makes culture, the body thinks, articulates and gestures ideas, manifests history in a forceful way, it is not a mere consumer or a product, it is an idea and a concept”, El asedio animal participates in the current conversation that links, for example, the struggles of women and indigenous peoples with the care of the land and the protection of natural resources, as part of the same process that considers bodies – individual, collective, natural – as territories of resistance against an economic system that seeks to manage life, death, flesh and its desires. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

It is not a history of philosophy from the phenomenological point of view, nor is it a search for “proto-phenomenological” authors. Rather, it is a broad exercise that integrates works in which some of the theses of phenomenology are discussed, dialogued and confronted with some of the peaks of the history of philosophy. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
