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 -

Ejercicios de respiración seguido de El Estado empresario mexicano
Read moreTitle Ejercicios de respiración seguido de El Estado empresario mexicano Author Hernán Bravo Varela Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456646 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 120 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis En este volumen hay monstruos. El de la salud, el del cuerpo, que nos acompañan, tan nuestros. La búsqueda de Ejercicios de respiración sucede en la oscuridad, tienta las formas ocultas de la ansiedad y el dolor. Una puerta que permanece abierta en sueños, la agónica atmósfera de los hospitales. ¿Quién es el padre, ése que ahora -inamovible tiempo del recuerdo- muere? El Estado empresario mexicano gravita alrededor de este grave momento. El heredero se dispone a contarlo: recurre a momentos desperdigados, hitos de la memoria, piezas rodeadas de vacío que sin embargo conectan entre sí. Desde sus primeros poemas, que nombraban la gracia de un mundo inaugural, hasta la complejidad de sus más recientes búsquedas, Hernán Bravo Varela ha construido una escritura que pone en jaque los prestigios de lo poéticamente aceptado, como atestigua el diálogo entre estas dos colecciones de poemas. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
