Historias y poemas de una lucha de clases / Stories and Poems of a Class Struggle by Roque Dalton Pdf

“The revolutionary the dictatorship couldn’t kill, the trickster poet favored by the gods.” —Ben Ehrenreich, author of The Way to Spring: Life and Death in Palestine Poems of revolution by one of Latin America’s most beloved poets One of Latin America’s greatest poets, Roque Dalton was a revolutionary whose politics were inseparable from his art. Born in El Salvador in 1935, Dalton dedicated his life to fighting for social justice, while writing fierce, tender poems about his country and its people. In Poemas clandestinos / Stories and Poems of a Class Struggle, he explores oppression and resistance through the lens of five poetic personas, each with their own distinct voice. These poems show a country caught in the crosshairs of American imperialism, where the few rule the many and the many struggle to survive—and yet there is joy and even humor to be found here, as well as an abiding faith in humanity. In striking, immediate, exuberantly inventive language, Dalton captures the ethos of a people, as stirring now as when the book was first published nearly forty years ago. “I believe the world is beautiful,” he writes, “and that poetry, like bread, is for everyone.”

Poemas clandestinos by Roque Dalton Pdf

Historias y poemas de una lucha de clases fue el título original del libro que ahora conocemos como Poemas clandestinos. Ninguno de los poemas aparece firmado por Roque Dalton, sino firmados por Vilma Flores, Timoteo Lúe, Jorge Cruz, Juan Zapata y Luis Luna. Más que seudónimos, son heterónimos, como los de Fernando Pessoa, pues cada uno de «los autores» tiene una biografía propia. El denominador común es que todos habían pasado por las aulas universitarias. De alguna forma, eso significaba afirmar que, para Dalton, el sujeto de la revolución en El Salvador no sería un etéreo «proletariado» —descontextualizándose así el producto del análisis de Marx, quien tenía en el horizonte de sus preocupaciones a la sociedad capitalista industrial de fines del siglo XIX, en concreto, a Inglaterra, esa sociedad inglesa industrial cuyos bajos fondos retrata magistralmente el Oliver Twist de Dickens—, sino que provendría de la pequeña burguesía, los estudiantes y los intelectuales, pero adoptando el proyecto histórico y los valores éticos de las mayorías populares como suyos. «La pequeña burguesía» es el título de uno de los poemas, donde el autor advierte sobre lo que ocurre cuando este sector quiere transformar la sociedad desentendiéndose del dolor de las mayorías populares, de tal suerte que hacer la revolución se convierte en un acto frívolo... Para un intelectual, pero sobre todo si ese intelectual es poeta, ¿cómo debe hacerse la revolución? En opinión de Roque Dalton, el poeta revolucionario debe poner en función del proyecto histórico transforma-dor no sólo su participación en organizaciones políticas y el trabajo conocido tradicionalmente como intelectual, sino también la poesía misma, razón del ser poeta. Pero la Modernidad ha situado a la poesía y, por extensión, a la estética, fuera del «mundo de la vida», es decir, del mundo cotidiano. ¿Qué hacer?

A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn Pdf

“It’s a wonderful, splendid book—a book that should be read by every American, student or otherwise, who wants to understand his country, its true history, and its hope for the future.” —Howard Fast, author of Spartacus and The Immigrants “[It] should be required reading.” —Eric Foner, New York Times Book Review Library Journal calls Howard Zinn’s iconic A People's History of the United States “a brilliant and moving history of the American people from the point of view of those…whose plight has been largely omitted from most histories.” Packed with vivid details and telling quotations, Zinn’s award-winning classic continues to revolutionize the way American history is taught and remembered. Frequent appearances in popular media such as The Sopranos, The Simpsons, Good Will Hunting, and the History Channel documentary The People Speak testify to Zinn’s ability to bridge the generation gap with enduring insights into the birth, development, and destiny of the nation.

World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality by Gesine Müller,Mariano Siskind Pdf

From today’s vantage point it can be denied that the confidence in the abilities of globalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism to illuminate cultural signification processes of our time has been severely shaken. In the face of this crisis, a key concept of this globalizing optimism as World Literature has been for the past twenty years necessarily is in the need of a comprehensive revision. World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Against, Post, Otherwise offers a wide range of contributions approaching the blind spots of the globally oriented Humanities for phenomena that in one way or another have gone beyond the discourses, aesthetics, and political positions of liberal cosmopolitanism and neoliberal globalization. Departing basically (but not exclusively) from different examples of Latin American literatures and cultures in globalized contexts, this volume provides innovative insights into critical readings of World Literature and its related conceptualizations. A timely book that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a mustread for all scholars involved in the field of the global dimensions of literature.

A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula by Fernando Cabo Aseguinolaza,Anxo Abuín Gonzalez,César Domínguez Pdf

A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula is the second comparative history of a new subseries with a regional focus, published by the Coordinating Committee of the International Comparative Literature Association. As its predecessor for East-Central Europe, this two-volume history distances itself from traditional histories built around periods and movements, and explores, from a comparative viewpoint, a space considered to be a powerful symbol of inter-literary relations. Both the geographical pertinence and its symbolic condition are obviously discussed, when not even contested. Written by an international team of researchers who are specialists in the field, this history is the first attempt at applying a comparative approach to the plurilingual and multicultural literatures in the Iberian Peninsula. The aim of comprehensiveness is abandoned in favor of a diverse and extensive array of key issues for a comparative agenda. A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula undermines the primacy claimed for national and linguistic boundaries, and provides a geo-cultural account of literary inter-systems which cannot otherwise be explained.

Diaries of a Terrorist by Christopher Soto Pdf

Sexy, outspoken, and explosive, the terrorist of Soto’s debut collection resists police violence with linguistic verve and radical honesty. This debut poetry collection demands the abolition of policing and human caging. In Diaries of a Terrorist, Christopher Soto uses the “we” pronoun to emphasize that police violence happens not only to individuals, but to whole communities. His poetics open the imagination towards possibilities of existence beyond the status quo. Soto asks, “Who do we call terrorist, & why”? These political surrealist poems shift between gut-wrenching vulnerability, laugh-aloud humor, and unapologetic queer punk raunchiness. Diaries of a Terrorist is groundbreaking in its ability to speak—from a local to a global scale—about one of the most important issues of our time.

Colonial Phantoms by Dixa Ramírez Pdf

Using a blend of historical and literary analysis, Colonial Phantoms reveals how Western discourses have ghosted—miscategorized or erased—the Dominican Republic since the nineteenth century despite its central place in the architecture of the Americas. Through a variety of Dominican cultural texts, from literature to public monuments to musical performance, it illuminates the Dominican quest for legibility and resistance.

Anarchism in Latin America by Ángel J. Cappelletti Pdf

The available material in English discussing Latin American anarchism tends to be fragmentary, country-specific, or focused on single individuals. This new translation of Ángel Cappelletti's wide-ranging, country-by-country historical overview of anarchism's social and political achievements in fourteen Latin American nations is the first book-length regional history ever published in English. With a foreword by the translator. Ángel J. Cappelletti (1927–1995) was an Argentinian philosopher who taught at Simon Bolivar University in Venezuela. He is the author of over forty works primarily investigating philosophy and anarchism. Gabriel Palmer-Fernandez is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Youngstown State University.
