MediMente es un texto principalmente dedicado a los que desean iniciarse en el ejercicio de la meditaci n, pero que no por ello impide que los ya experimentados puedan conocer otra versi n, aunque siempre lamentar no poder conocer la de ellos y poder as completar el c rculo interactivo. Pero todos sabemos que esas son las reglas del juego cuando entre nosotros se interpone un libro. Por ello es que disfruto tanto o m s cuando me toca estar colocado del otro lado, del lado del lector.El libro esta dividido en dos partes: MediTeor a es la primera parte y consiste en una completa recopilaci n de todas las clases de meditaci n para principiantes ofrecidas y publicadas en el curso iniciado en el blog (p gina Web): "Libro Abierto". Est dedicada principalmente a ofrecer explicaciones te ricas de los comienzos de la pr ctica, pero con la clara intenci n, como el lector podr comprobar por s mismo, de ir gui ndolo en sus comienzos como meditador, en los pasos iniciales de la ejercitaci n. En esta misma secci n se tocan temas relacionados con la meditaci n, pero de tipo reflexivo y que no incluyen pr ctica (ejercitaci n) alguna que no signifique la invitaci n a determinados cambios en la forma, percepci n y filosof a de la vida del lector.MediPr ctica es la segunda parte y est dividida a su vez en dos cap tulos (Meditaci n Modelo y Meditaci n Argumentada). El primero de los cap tulos ofrece un modelo b sico y pr ctico, sobre el cual el meditador trabajar creativamente. El segundo incluye "Cinco Viajes Fant sticos al Interior del Alma", siendo cada uno de dichos viajes, una meditaci n, ofreciendo as la posibilidad de aplicar todo lo aprendido y conocer la forma de crear sus propias meditaciones.S lo me queda despedirme con la esperanza de que quien tome este libro entre sus manos sepa encontrar un verdadero cambio positivo que lo acompa e el resto del camino.

Arnesto sufre la mayor tragedia de su vida en virtud de la cual se muda de pueblo. A su llegada al nuevo lugar es v ctima de una tremenda golpiza. Pero vali la pena, porque de ella nace un amor de "tama o" desproporcionado que ni l mismo pod a imaginar...Una novela corta, aguda, que no permite la distracci n. Se trata de una s tira rom ntica tragic mica que introduce el elemento m stico entre sus p ginas, de manera muy sutil. A pesar de no tratarse de un texto de suspenso, su ritmo atrapa y su desenlace sorprende.

"Recopilando Reflexiones Hacia d nde nos dirigimos?" intenta la autoayuda a trav s de la filosof a, abordando temas que van de lo individual a lo colectivo, insertando con cierta humildad y timidez, recetas con las que quiz s el lector pueda identificarse.Debido al constante pedido por parte de muchos de sus lectores, el autor ha decidido recopilar en este volumen todas las reflexiones sobre diversos temas desarrollados con anterioridad, las que hasta ahora, como hijos abandonados, se han sabido esconder entre las l neas de sus novelas. Hoy, quedan reunidas aqu , como cita de honor y aceptando gustosas la inclusi n en sta su nueva casa, de posteriores e in ditas reflexiones, festejando todas juntas un jolgorio de filosof a simple pero profunda.Comenta el autor: "Recopilando Reflexiones es mi primer libro que no cuenta una historia. A trav s de sus aforismos y su prosa en general, intenta salpicar nuestras conciencias en forma desordenada pero precisa, de reflexiones que nos inciten a un incisivo an lisis de cada situaci n. Aqu ofrezco tambi n al lector mi punto de vista sobre profundos temas filos ficos y existencialistas, sobre las relaciones interhumanas con sus connotaciones y derivaciones, socavando en los sentimientos del alma.Una parte de los textos que habitan este volumen, ha sido extra da de mis libros publicados con anterioridad, por especial pedido de lectores que sin manifestarme su desinter s por mis relatos y novelas han querido ver recopilados en un mismo tomo mis pensamientos en temas puntuales de inter s universal. Me he permitido agregar escritos volcados en las p ginas Web de mis blogs, borradores depositados en viejos cuadernos, a la antigua usanza y frases, aforismos y pensares extra dos todos de un diario ntimo cuyos or genes datan de la d cada de los 80 y que hoy ha quedado en desuso, depositado en un emotivo cofre imaginario.Espero que esta amalgama de letras, palabras y frases que se re nen d ndole texto a este libro sirvan a su principal prop sito, esto es, aunar a todos los seres humanos (debiendo empezar tan s lo por mis lectores) en una reflexi n mancomunada que nos pueda se alar hacia d nde nos dirigimos... y si deberemos quiz s, cambiar de rumbo todos juntos, hacia un destino com n."

What is Cultural Sociology?

What is Cultural Sociology?

Polity Press

Culture, cultural difference, and cultural conflict always surround us. Cultural sociologists aim to understand their role across all aspects of social life by examining processes of meaning-making. In this crisp and accessible book, Lyn Spillman demonstrates many of the conceptual tools cultural sociologists use to explore how people make meaning. Drawing on vivid examples, she offers a compelling analytical framework within which to view the entire field of cultural sociology. In each chapter, she introduces a different angle of vision, with distinct but compatible approaches for explaining culture and its role in social life: analyzing symbolic forms, meaning-making in interaction, and organized production. This book both offers a concise answer to the question of what cultural sociology is and provides an overview of the fundamental approaches in the field.

Making Sense of Slavery

Making Sense of Slavery

Scott Spillman

BASIC BOOKS
2025
sidottu
An "essential" (James Oakes, author of The Crooked Path to Abolition) history of the study of slavery in America, from the Revolutionary era to the 1619 Project, showing how these intellectual debates have shaped American public lifeIn recent years, from school board meetings to the halls of Congress, Americans have engaged in fierce debates about how slavery and its legacies ought to be taught, researched, and narrated. But since the earliest days of the Republic, political leaders, abolitionists, judges, scholars, and ordinary citizens have all struggled to explain and understand the peculiar institution. In Making Sense of Slavery, historian Scott Spillman shows that the study of slavery was a vital catalyst for the broader development of American intellectual life and politics. In contexts ranging from the plantation fields to the university classroom, Americans interpreted slavery and its afterlives through many lenses, shaping the trajectory of disciplines from economics to sociology, from psychology to history. Spillman delves deeply into the archives, and into the pathbreaking work of scholars such as W. E. B. Du Bois and Annette Gordon-Reed, to trace how generations of Americans have wrestled with the paradox of slavery in a country founded on principles of liberty and equality. As the debate over the place of slavery in our history rages on, Making Sense of Slavery shows that what is truly central to American history is this very debate itself.

How does good writing stand out? If its purpose is to convey facts, findings, or instructions, it need be read only once for its content to be clear. If its purpose is to entertain or to provoke thought, it makes readers want to come back for more. Revised and updated, this guide covers four essential aspects of good writing:Individual words-spelling variations, hyphenation, frequently confused homonyms, frequently misused words and phrases, irregular plurals and negatives, and uses of capitalization and type style to add special meaningsPunctuation-the role of each mark in achieving clarity and affecting tone, and demonstration of how misuses can lead to ambiguitySyntax and structure-agreement of subject and verb, parallel construction, modifiers, tenses, pronouns, active versus passive voice, and moreStyle-advice on the less hard-and-fast areas of clarity and tone, including sentence length and order, conciseness, simplification, reading level, jargon and cliches, and subtlety Filled with self-test exercises and whimsical literary quotations, Grammatically Correct steers clear of academic stuffiness, focusing instead on practical strategies and intuitive explanations. Discussions are designed to get to the heart of a concept and provide a sufficient sense of when and how to use it, along with examples that show what ambiguities or misinterpretations might result if the rules are not followed. In cases where there is more than one acceptable way to do something, the approach is not to prescribe one over another but simply to describe the options. Readers of this book will never break the rules of language again-unintentionally.
