Para una teología política del crimen organizado
Read moreTitle Para una teología política del crimen organizado Author Claudio Lomnitz Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456295 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 216 Format Print and digital THEMA Sociology and anthropology Synopsis With this second cycle of conferences, Lomnitz analyzes the spiritual field that has risen inside Mexican criminal organizations.

Malversaciones
Read moreTitle Malversaciones Author Bravo Varela, Hernán Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667086 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 144 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The least that can be demanded of an essayist is ingenuity in constructing analogies, elegant memory, a significant arsenal of references that are not entirely outlandish, although they are of an unexpected mold, and, crowning it all, an educated lust for prose. Hernán Bravo Varela conquered these virtues from his youthful writing. Now, with Malversaciones, he gives us eighteen essays of early maturity where the joy of the boy and the disenchantment of experience alternate and caress each other until they merge into a single and delicious breath, a drift that draws from the prose poem as well as from anecdotes, erudition, the little note in verse, literary criticism and the chronicle. Divided into four sections – Mexican poets; foreign authors; places and themes and practices of the poetic; The most beautiful final reflection on the ethos, praxis and politics of art, Malversaciones weaves a praise of deviation and madness, of the staging of corruptibility as a possible refuge for human descendants, of the cry as song and reflection, of hubris and cowardice as practices of the sublime, and it does not shy away from either the elegiac rage at the murder of the poet Guillermo Fernández or the self-parodic tenderness of a failed poetic-terrorist-adolescent attack against Jaime Sabines. It does all this, moreover, as an exhalation: a brief succession of lashes of lucidity, a –these are the author’s words– “patrimonial declaration”, a sort of freehand self-portrait of the reader as prince and beggar of the world.

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764723 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 320 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis I will never forget the sound of the drums of the shell collectors at night, while I tried to fall asleep in an old building on Donceles Street. It seemed like a sinister warning: beneath there is a city that beats and breathes, with gods who have not died; let us pay tribute to them, because one day that world will return... It is impossible to sleep next to the Templo Mayor without being influenced by those ancient stones, by the voices that whisper from the ruins during the early hours of the morning. My mind began to imagine a story to ward off the insomnia that this invocation to the ancient and mysterious side of the city caused me. I wanted to understand where we come from, and why it is difficult to reconcile ourselves with our pre-Hispanic origins; especially with the human sacrifices practiced by the Aztecs. This novel unites past and present in the same secret plot: the obsidian knives that ripped out hearts, the homeless people who swarm the streets of the Center, the colonial buildings with tezontle facades, the abandoned concrete buildings on the edge of large avenues, the sensationalist publications and their language of violence, the archaeological windows that tell of a lost splendor; a riddle whose main character is Mexico City, the place where any situation is possible. Archaeologists turned detectives, vagabonds dressed in human skins, secret tunnels and catacombs under the asphalt of the city, and a ritual murderer with an apocalyptic mission. All the Blood is a thriller about the universe of myths and the realm of the “real”; both are needed because they feed off each other. In the middle are we, puppets of forces that we sense and prefer to ignore. Until the sound of the drums reaches our door.

Mitchel -theorist and father of military aviation in the United States- predicted that air passengers would be as common as train passengers and that distances between major cities would be calculated in flight hours instead of kilometers. In 1936, John A. Wilson, head of Civil Aviation Canada, coined the term World's Airways System, which he claimed would represent a revolution in transportation. Such predictions are the guiding threads of this book.

Historia mínima del rock en América Latina
Read moreTitle Historia mínima del rock en América Latina Author Abel Gilbert; Pablo Alabarces Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075646763 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 324 Format Print and digital THEMA History and Archeology Synopsis For the authors of this book, the history of Latin American rock intersects failed modernization processes with states of political exception. Although all countries in the region experienced a similar initial phase, linked to the reproduction of the American rock scene, the development of each type of rock music is deeply connected to the forms that modernization took in each society in the 1960s: contradictory and varied modernizations, related to “regularly exceptional” political histories. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

Miroslav, el vampiro
Read moreTitle Miroslav, el vampiro Author Pedro Aparicio Herrera Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9786316503510 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 272 Format Printed THEMA Horror & supernatural fiction Synopsis Miroslav, the vampire is a novel that breaks the stereotype of the character created by John Polidori and polished by Bram Stoker in his works The Vampire and Dracula. Here the central character is a being whose vital drives are his very essence: love, temper and desire. A work of action and suspense that contrasts scenarios separated by the fracture between life and death, passion and loneliness, cowardice and unfettered friendship, framed by the dazzle of sensuality, whether in the form of the affable tasting of an exquisite wine, the deepest meaning of affection or the delight of the female body: the perpetual salvation of the soul.

Read moreTitle El arte del retrato Author Louis Marion Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918495 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 212 Format Printed THEMA Semiotics / semiology Synopsis "The work of Louis Marin (1931-1992), French philosopher, historian and semiotician, became an essential reference for understanding the relationships between images and texts, between the visible and the legible. 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
