Our Landless Patria
In particular, marginal citizenship adopted patriarchy as a model to regulate social relations at home, failing to address gender inequalities and perpetuating class differences."--BOOK JACKET.
The Death of Lorca
"Frederico Garcia Lorca, one of the outstanding poets and dramatists of this century, was murdered at the age of thirty-eight by Nationalist rebels in his native Granada on the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War in 1936. Since then the Franco regime has sought consistently to prevent the world from knowing how Lorca died, and a tissue of lies and misrepresentations has been woven around both the great poet's death and those of the thousands of ohter Republican supporters executed in Granada. In this book Ian Gibson, who has spent many years researching the subject, marvellously evokes the background to the repression and, in a carefully-documented study, describes the reign of terror that caused the deaths of so mant Spaniards--a story that has never fully been told before. His account of Lorca's arrest and death is the result of meticulous investigation, involving the tracking down of dozens of people concerned in the events surrounding the poet's last days, many of whom were directly implicated in the many Granada killings. This important book, established conclusively how Lorca died. It is no wonder that the book is banned in Spain"--dust jacket.

To Walk Alone in the Crowd
Winner of the 2020 Prix Médicis etranger I want to live on foot, by hand, by pencil, at ease, responsive to whatever I meet, loose like the air that moves around my body as I walk or like a graceful swimming stroke. I want to remain astonished. Join Antonio Muñoz Molina for a walk through Madrid, Paris, London and New York, where the past and the present live side by side in the literature of newspaper headlines, billboards, casual glances and overheard conversation. This is the digital metropolis, captured in notebooks, recorded on the iPhone, where Edgar Allan Poe, Herman Melville, Charles Baudelaire, Thomas de Quincey, Fernando Pessoa and Walter Benjamin step beside us, all of us writing the unfinished poem of the crowded city.
Mexican Political Biographies, 1935-2009
This fourth edition of Roderic Camp's highly respected Mexican Political Biographies is an updated comprehensive biographical directory of leading state and national politicians in Mexico, covering the years 1935–2009. The original edition, published in 1976, was the first and only comprehensive biographical work on contemporary political figures in any language and served as the prototype for the Mexican government's brief foray into its own official biographical directory. The Mexican Supreme Court has cited every biography of justices in the third edition as the basis of its biographies in the late 1980s. With updates of the existing biographies and appendices, plus almost 1,000 additio...
