    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.

However, a conspiracy is hatched in the very heart of the empire in order to overthrow the leader. The fate of Ce Océlotl, the young son of a veteran of past battles, may change the course of events. Marked by an omen from the day of his birth, he will pursue his destiny to become a great warrior and to be remembered by his people. Set in the pre-Hispanic era, Las águilas de Tenochtitlán is an epic novel in which betrayal and loyalty, the thirst for revenge, power and honor come together in a plot full of conspiracies and the most deadly battles.

    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.

    Synopsis We all have secrets. Lina has a terrifying one that she doesn't know about. Following the murder of his mother by beings from the underworld, his father reveals to her that he is not human: he comes from an alternate and hidden civilization of the underworld. Each generation has called these beings differently: demons, elementals, undead, nosferatus. Lina must go down to the Shadow World to seek justice. While on her journey, she will find great allies, implacable enemies, revealed mysteries and intense love. Lina is shy, she seems vulnerable, but if she trusted herself a little more, she would know that she is as dangerous as the most lethal of weapons.
