En el 30. aniversario de su muerte, llega a la colecci n de Cuentos completos Julio Ram n Ribeyro, uno de los maestros del siglo XX en espa ol, en una edici n con pr logo de Juan Gabriel V squez «No haynada m s cinematogr fico que el retrato humano y en eso los cuentos de Ribeyro son nicos . -Fernando Le n de Aranoa Compuesta a lo largo de m s de cuatro d cadas, la narrativa breve de Julio Ram n Ribeyro, a la que el propio autor titul La palabra del mudo, despliega una variedad de registros que abarcan el mbito de lo fant stico, lo social, lo filos fico, as como la memoria introspectiva que evoca su juventud europea y su infancia en el Miraflores de su Lima natal. Aunque muchos de sus personajes son v ctimas de la desilusi n o el fracaso, una de las marcas de su imaginario, lo cierto es que sus cuentos trascienden el t pico de la derrota y recrean el complejo caudal de la experiencia humana. Este volumen re ne la mayor parte de su producci n cuent stica. Noventa y cinco relatos que revelan a un artista dotado para realzar el min sculo resplandor de unas vidas confinadas a la imposibilidad. Fiel a la po tica del fragmento y la periferia, que lo mantuvo al margen del Boom, el autor peruano supo narrar con compasiva iron a el destino de los seres tocados por la frustraci n, la decadencia y el misterio, y extraer de ese material sensible una forma de inigualable belleza. Con los a os, la obra de Julio Ram n Ribeyro no ha hecho sino crecer en lectores y admiraci n. Estas p ginas confirman el lugar privilegiado que ocupa su nombre entre los maestros de la prosa breve de todos los tiempos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION On the 30th anniversary of his death, Julio Ram n Ribeyro, one of the masters of twentieth century literature in Spanish, joins the collection Cuentos Completos in an edition prologued by Juan Gabriel V squez. "There is nothing more cinematic than a human portrait, and at that, Ribeyro's short stories are one of a kind." --Fernando Le n de Aranoa Composed throughout four decades, Julio Ram n Ribeyro's short fiction, which the author himself entitled The Mute's Word, displays a series of registers that covers the spheres of fantasy, society, philosophy, and introspective memory to evoke his European youth and his childhood in Miraflores, in his native Lima. Though many of his characters are victims of disillusionment or failure, one of the markers of his imaginary, the truth is his short stories transcend the topic of defeat and recreate the complex wealth of human experience. This volume gathers the best of his storytelling production. Ninety-five tales that reveal an artist gifted at highlighting the minuscule glow of lives confined to impossibility. Faithful to the poetic of fragmentation and periphery that sidelined him from the Boom movement, the Peruvian author knew how to narrate, with compassionate irony, the fate of those beings touched by frustration, decadence, and mystery, and draw a form of incomparable beauty from that sensitive material. Over the years, the work of Julio Ram n Ribeyro has only gathered readers and admiration. These pages confirm the privileged place his name has among the great masters of short prose of all time.

The Dreams of Santiago Ramón y Cajal

The Dreams of Santiago Ramón y Cajal

Benjamin Ehrlich

Oxford University Press Inc
2017
nidottu
The Spanish anatomist Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852-1934) explored the microscopic world of the brain and found a landscape inhabited by distinctly individual cells, later termed neurons. "The mysterious butterflies of the soul," he called them, "whose beating of wings may one day reveal to us the secrets of the mind." Although he ranks among the greatest scientists in history, the name of the Nobel Prize-winning "father of modern neuroscience" is not as well-known as that of Darwin, Pasteur, Galileo, Einstein, Copernicus, and Isaac Newton. The second half of the nineteenth century saw a revolution in the study of the mind. Cajal was a contemporary of Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), whose radical theories would scandalize the next century. Before he was a neuroanatomist Cajal conducted psychiatric experiments and before Freud became a psychiatrist, he worked in neuroanatomy. In public, Cajal spoke respectfully about Freud, but in private, Cajal rejected the man and his theories. In order to disprove Freud's "lies," Cajal started to record his own dreams in a diary, part of a notably personal book project, which he worked on from 1918 until his death in 1934. For reasons unknown, Cajal never published this work. Until recently, it was assumed that the manuscript had been destroyed during the Spanish Civil War. The Dreams of Santiago Ramón y Cajal is this lost dream diary, translated into English for the first time. The text is accompanied by an introduction to the life and work of Cajal, his relationship with the famed Viennese psychoanalyst, and the historical context surrounding the contributions of two great dueling intellects.

The Evangelical Rhetoric of Ramon Llull

BLThe first full-length analysis of the rhetorical and preaching theories of Ramon Llull, the thirteenth century lay philosopher and theologian Johnston demonstrates how Llull adapted commonplace ideas of courtly speech and popular sermons in order to create a unitary art of secular and sacred eloquence, and shows that Llull exemplifies the development of intellectual and spiritual ideals among the growing class of educated lay people in the later Middle Ages.

The Death of Ramón González

The Death of Ramón González

Angus Wright

University of Texas Press
2005
pokkari
The Death of Ramón González has become a benchmark book since its publication in 1990. It has been taught in undergraduate and graduate courses in every social science discipline, sustainable and alternative agriculture, environmental studies, ecology, ethnic studies, public health, and Mexican, Latin American, and environmental history. The book has also been used at the University of California-Santa Cruz as a model of interdisciplinary work and at the University of Iowa as a model of fine journalism, and has inspired numerous other books, theses, films, and investigative journalism pieces. This revised edition of The Death of Ramón González updates the science and politics of pesticides and agricultural development. In a new afterword, Angus Wright reconsiders the book's central ideas within the context of globalization, trade liberalization, and NAFTA, showing that in many ways what he called "the modern agricultural dilemma" should now be thought of as a "twenty-first century dilemma" that involves far more than agriculture.

Charles Deering and Ramón Casas

Isabel Coll Mirabent

2012
sidottu
This lavishly illustrated, bilingual art book presents drawings by Ramón Casas in the Charles Deering McCormick Library of Special Collections at the Northwestern University Library and oil paintings by Casas from private collections and the Art Institute of Chicago. Charles Deering and Ramón Casas follows the development and dramatic dissolution of a three-way friendship that connected the Spanish painter Ramón Casas (1866–1932); the Chicago industrialist Charles Deering (1852–1927), who was a collector and admirer of Casas’s work as well as a patron of Northwestern University; and the Spanish artist Miguel Utrillo (1862–1934), Casas’s lifelong friend and the father of the French painter Maurice Utrillo. Casas introduced Deering to Sitges, a beach town near Barcelona, Spain, where the latter created a palatial estate with a museum to house his art collection. Miguel Utrillo served as director of the museum. The text explores the treasures housed at Maricel and what happened among the three men that led Casas to abandon Utrillo and Deering to depart Spain, taking his art collection with him.

This book is an imaginary conversation with Juan Ramon Jimenez. William Kluback follows the journey of Juan Ramon and Platero, to adventure into the world, speaking of what it means to confront the foibles and opinions of human beings. Confronting the poet, the author seeks not merely to describe and analyze poetry and prose, but to ponder the affects they have on his thoughts. In other words, the author imagines Juan Ramon present; he wants to respond to his presence."
