Vivir de prestado. Deudas, pobreza y derecho
Read moreTitle Vivir de prestado. Deudas, pobreza y derecho Author Emilia Schijman Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918648 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 192 Format Printed THEMA Sociology: family & relationships Synopsis A total ethnography, which finds in debts and in law two great operators of social life. In it, the author breaks down the modes of operation of collective law by showing procedures, rituals, coercive measures and sanctions. It is a living law that reinterprets and completes written law and has an effective way of functioning: it generates obligations. Here, living law is articulated with living debt, modulating a collective order full of precariousness, but also of solidarity, risk and protection. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

This work explores Merleau-Ponty's various approaches to certain canonical works in the history of philosophy. Accompanying the dialogue of his phenomenology with the celebrated theories of knowledge of Aristotle, Descartes, Hume, Kant, Bergson or Husserl means simultaneously outlining a history of the philosophies of the body and feeling. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
Una historia crítica de la idea de vida. El paradigma bio-teo-político de la autarquía
Read moreTitle Una historia crítica de la idea de vida. El paradigma bio-teo-político de la autarquía Author Martín Grassi Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918242 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 232 Format Printed THEMA Philosophy Synopsis The present book embarks on a critical-conceptual history of the notion of life in the West. The different discourses around life (such as biology, ethics, politics, phenomenology and theology) characterize it by its capacity to be a cause and principle of itself. Hence, we can speak of a bio-political paradigm of autarky. This deconstructive analysis shows that if the characteristic of life and the living is its being referred to itself, then all contact and trade with the other is either accidental or anecdotal. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
Una colonia francesa en Paraguay. Nueva Burdeos
Read moreTitle Una colonia francesa en Paraguay. Nueva Burdeos Author Luc Capdevilla Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9786316503183 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 96 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural history Synopsis The history of Nuevos Burdeos is the story of a failed attempt, but at the same time it opens windows to a 19th century and to a Paraguay more interconnected than it is usually recognized. It allows to initiate family stories, surnames that remain to this day or people forced to move westward, away from the rivers. The work of Luc Capdevila and Guido Rodríguez Alcalá penetrates these worlds and, especially, that of the French consul, through his official correspondence. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Author Enrique Cambón Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789871984176 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 240 Format Printed THEMA Agnosticism & atheism Synopsis If God exists, why doesn't he make himself present in a tangible way, why doesn't he act and intervene in an effective and evident way to bring about all the positive things he wishes to promote in humanity? This question contains within itself a genuine and fruitful search for God, whether it comes from an atheistic, agnostic or believing conviction, or from those who “do not succeed” in believing in God even though they ardently desire it. It is a cry that is expressed, explicitly or in the most intimate of many, as a sometimes dramatic claim: “God, why don't you give me the faith I desire so much? foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Historia, memoria y construcción política, siglos XIX/XX Author Luc Capdevilla Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878384368 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 272 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural history Synopsis Paraguay is the only country in the region whose entire borders come directly from its wars with all its neighbors. Located at the crossroads of the colonial borders of the former Portuguese empire, of the old Iberian viceroyalties, it suffered the two bloodiest international conflagrations of the continent in the 19th and 20th centuries. The first almost wiped it off the map in 1870; it emerged victorious, but exhausted, from the second, in 1935. The impact of these two wars on Paraguayan society has been extremely important, and retains an intense presence in today's social imaginary. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

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.

Las religiones indígenas de Mesoamérica. Historia, ritos y transformaciones
Read moreTitle Las religiones indígenas de Mesoamérica. Historia, ritos y transformaciones Author Johannes Neurath Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918846 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 196 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural anthropology Synopsis "This book offers a general introduction to the religions of Mesoamerica. It does not pursue an encyclopedic purpose, but rather demonstrates that, even in the age of academic hyperspecialization, comprehensive Mesoamerican studies are not impossible. A fundamental contribution of this new proposal is to promote concepts that do not come from theology and the history of religions but from indigenous practices themselves. Terms such as polytheism, cosmology, mythology, sacrifice and prayer should be questioned, if Mesoamerican religions are to be understood in their own relational logic." foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
Las palabras no escritas. Pirrón de Élide
Read moreTitle Las palabras no escritas. Pirrón de Élide Author Marían Fernanda Toribio Gutiérrez Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918532 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 202 Format Printed THEMA Ancient philosophy Synopsis Pyrrhon of Élide has always been surrounded by mystery. He is without being, he belongs without belonging. It is not strange, then, that the words that make up what of his life and thought has come down to us are the same words that define the ambiguous state of his reception: as the philosopher-character that he is, he is for us equally indifferent, unstable and indeterminate. This book seeks to show to what extent Pyrrhon's life can be interpreted as a struggle against the vanity of a dogmatism that threatens to sacrifice everything. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Audiencias, de antes de la radio hasta después del podcast Author José Luis Fernández Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9786316593511 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 208 Format Printed THEMA Media studies Synopsis It argues that audioneers are the protagonists of a very deep and misunderstood transformation that, arising in the passage from the nineteenth to the twentieth century, does not cease to renew itself. These are four “invisible” revolutions, since they do not stand out in our written and audiovisual culture: the total revolution, the mass revolution, the popular revolution and the permanent revolution of audioneuts. The radio, the phonographic, the telephone and the various platforms that surround us, our speakers and our headphones bring us discourses that surround us and in which we are immersed. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Antropología y diversidad cultural Author Saúl Millán Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9786316593641 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 120 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural anthropology Synopsis El dilema entre la unidad y la diferencia ha marcado al pensamiento antropológico en sus distintas modalidades, como un péndulo que no encuentra aún su equilibrio en el centro de gravedad necesario. Los ensayos reunidos en este volumen se inscriben en esa encrucijada y constituyen momentos de reflexión sobre los vínculos que unen a la antropología con la diversidad cultural. El lector encontrará por lo tanto que problemas generales de la disciplina comparten el espacio con problemas particulares de la docencia, o bien con aspectos asociados a las políticas culturales. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Identity rests on the network of social relationships that are established from the kinship groups that extend to the entire neighborhood dimension and that will be expressed intensely inside the stadiums during the development of a soccer match. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Ensayo de interpretación y modelización Author Enrique Luco Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789874434968 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 176 Format Printed THEMA Ancient philosophy Synopsis This essay is an attempt to revalue a paradigm of interpretation of the ancient Egyptian religious cosmovision, monism and its derivations, sketched in the eighties by Nordic Egyptologists - Uppsala (1987) and Bergen (1988) Symposia - and which projects in the scholar a divergent perception of the Egyptian experience of the sacred with respect to the interpretations currently in force. To achieve this goal, he investigates the nature of the Egyptian cosmotheology that underlies the theological discourse of the priestly texts of all its epochs. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Antropología e historia de las políticas culturales del siglo XX Author María Alonso Bolaños Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918662 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 138 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural anthropology Synopsis Where does what is defined as music, indigenous and national begin and end? It is not a question here of describing or theorizing about national musics, but of the discourse models that concern them, their promotion and conservation practices, the cultural policies surrounding them, the disciplines that investigate them, postulate them as themes or simply parasitize them. This is a genuine act of “invention”, of social construction, which establishes actors, purposes and responsible parties. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

It pitted Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay against Paraguay. Paraguay was the big loser and was devastated territorially and demographically. The nineteenth-century wars can be thought of as the driving force behind the formation of national states. This book aims to analyze the representations of the nation and other political-community identities in the discourse of the elites and in some manifestations of popular culture during that war. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com
