    THEMA Historical fiction
    Synopsis With a stunning language, both authors –poets, narrators, essayists– capture two intimate stories of the Mexican revolution, located in the northern part of the country around 1913: an ordinary private who, from the tower of a church, awaits for the arrival of the enemy while he remembers how his future was manifested to him since childhood, through dreams and nightmares; a rural teacher that, after going through all the levels of carrancista bureaucracy, is appointed member of Congress. This powerful book reminds us that armies are made up by individuals.

    THEMA Political science & theory
    Synopsis In Donde nací como tú, Ana Couchonnal works on the figure of national identity as a central piece of the Paraguayan national narrative: the modern model sustained by liberal hegemony. The work addresses the vagaries and contradictions of this problematic construction, pointing out its recurrence in different moments of Paraguayan history and encouraging the possibility of discussing the concept of identity as a full and closed presence.

    THEMA Phenomenology & Existentialism
    Synopsis "The result of a research on the political thought of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, the author presents Merleau-Ponty's debate with other thinkers (Machiavelli, Husserl, Hegel, Marx, Sartre, Lúckas, among others) in a social and political context marked by the violence of the two world wars, the ideological unilateralism of the Cold War and colonialism. The aim of this contextualization is to make explicit how, from a prereflective phenomenological analysis, the French author elaborates an understanding of political praxis, linked to other relevant ideas in his philosophical thought"

    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.”"
