Naturaleza muerta
VUELVE EL AUTOR REFERENCIA DEL TERROR EN ESPAÑA CON UNA NOVELA QUE ATRAPA SIN PIEDAD. «Uno de los mejores autores de género en castellano. De hecho, llamarlo de género es limitarlo. Emilio es un gran escritor y ya». Mariana Enríquez «Emilio Bueso escribe de una manera terroríficamente adictiva: aunque tengas el corazón en un puño, pero no podrás dejar de leer». Juan Gómez-Jurado UNA MUJER QUE HUYE DE TODO. UNA CASA AISLADA JUNTO AL PANTANO. UNA TENSIÓN QUE CRECE BAJO EL AGUA. LAS LUCES MÁS PRECIOSAS ESCONDEN LOS ORÍGENES MÁS OSCUROS.
Al garete
Una distopía que plantea con crudeza el futuro al que se enfrentan los náufragos terrestres debido al cambio climático. Bueso plantea una desasosegante historia de supervivencia con una gran carga medioambiental localizada en una caravana de desechos flotantes. De fondo, recogiendo en su irreverente estilo una tradición que va de Noé al cambio climático, el autor hace sonar el rumor de los terroríficos castigos que seguramente merecemos. Esos mismos que tal vez, envanecidos, hayamos empezado ya a alimentar sin darnos cuenta.

The Political Imagination in Spanish Graphic Narrative
In a spirit of community and collective action, this volume offers insights into the complexity of the political imagination and its cultural scope within Spanish graphic narrative through the lens of global political and social movements. Developed during the critical years of the COVID-19 pandemic and global lockdown, the volume and its chapters reflect the interdisciplinary nature of the comic. They employ a cultural studies approach with different theoretical frameworks ranging from debates within comics studies, film and media theory, postcolonialism, feminism, economics, multimodality, aging, aesthetics, memory studies, food studies, and sound studies, among others. Scholars and students working in these areas will find the book to be an insightful and impactful resource.
A Companion to Spanish Environmental Cultural Studies
An exploration of how writers, artists, and filmmakers expose the costs and contest the assumptions of the Capitalocene era that guides readers through the rapidly developing field of Spanish environmental cultural studies. From the scars left by Franco's dams and mines to the toxic waste dumped in Equatorial Guinea, from the cruelty of the modern pork industry to the ravages of mass tourism in the Balearic Islands, this book delves into the power relations, material practices and social imaginaries underpinning the global economic system to uncover its unaffordable human and non-human costs. Guiding the reader through the rapidly emerging field of Spanish environmental cultural studies, wit...
Semantic Primes and Universal Grammar
This volume is part of a research program which started with the publication, in 1972, of Anna Wierzbicka's groundbreaking work on Semantic Primitives. The first within the program to focus on a number of typologically similar languages, it proposes a French, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian version of the Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) elaborated over the years by Wierzbicka and colleagues. Repetition is avoided through teamwork: a number of authors working on the languages under examination have had equal input in a set of five papers dealing with distinct parts of the metalanguage. Some of the findings presented here invite us to have a fresh look at what has already been achieved, and to amend some of the working hypotheses of the NSM approach accordingly. The volume also contains six case studies (on Italian sfogarsi, Portuguese saudades, Spanish crisis, French certes, Spanish expressions of sincerity and Italian and Spanish diminutives, respectively).
Languages of Resistance, Transformation, and Futurity in Mediterranean Crisis-Scapes
This collection rethinks crisis in relation to critique through the prism of various declared ‘crises’ in the Mediterranean: the refugee crisis, the Eurozone crisis, the Greek debt crisis, the Arab Spring, the Palestinian question, and others. With contributions from cultural, literary, film, and migration studies and sociology, this book shifts attention from Europe to the Mediterranean as a site not only of intersecting crises, but a breeding ground for new cultures of critique, visions of futurity, and radical imaginaries shaped through or against frameworks of crisis. If crisis rhetoric today serves populist, xenophobic or anti-democratic agendas, can the concept crisis still do the work of critique or partake in transformative languages by scholars, artists, and activists? Or should we forge different vocabularies to understand present realities? This collection explores alternative mobilizations of crisis and forms of art, cinema, literature, and cultural practices across the Mediterranean that disengage from dominant crisis narratives.
