De emociones, agencia y adicciones. Entre la destrucción y la esperanza
El fenómeno de las adicciones trasciende al consumo problemático de sustancias. La adicción se presenta bajo diversas formas de dependencia, que tienen en común la disminución de la autonomía, las fracturas emocionales, y la ruptura de los principales vínculos de quienes viven el problema. La persona adicta es un ser humano que se ha visto desdibujado en distintas partes de su vida, y que, a decir de las y los autores, al buscar la vida, se encontró con la muerte. Este tomo, tercero y último de la investigación “El desarrollo de la capacidad de agencia y la reconfiguración emocional en adictos en proceso de ‘rehabilitación’. Hacia una propuesta de prevención”, plantea un...
María Izquierdo and Frida Kahlo
María Izquierdo (1902–1955) and Frida Kahlo (1907–1954) were the first two Mexican women artists to achieve international recognition. During the height of the Mexican muralist movement, they established successful careers as easel painters and created work that has become an integral part of Mexican modernism. Although the iconic Kahlo is now more famous, the two artists had comparable reputations during their lives. Both were regularly included in major exhibitions of Mexican art, and they were invariably the only women chosen for the most important professional activities and honors. In a deeply informed study that prioritizes critical analysis over biographical interpretation, Nancy...
Hermanos, generales y gobernantes: Los Ávila Camacho
Arturo Olmedo Díaz y Rodrigo Fernández Chedraui rescatan la historia de tres personajes que, además de hermanos, fueron forjadores de la historia mexicana: Maximino, Manuel y Rafael Ávila Camacho, quienes fueron integrantes de una familia tan modesta como emprendedora, que acunó hombres que se fraguaron en el trabajo y en los campos de batalla; éstos trascendieron de tal manera, que en un mismo momento histórico conjuntaron en sus manos los destinos de la nación, del estado de Puebla y de su capital: Manuel como presidente de la República, Maximino como gobernador del referido estado, y Rafael como alcalde de la Angelópolis. Asimismo, los autores trazan el temperamento de estos tre...
Selected Poetry of Delmira Agustini
This graceful translation and bilingual edition, now in paperback, is the first to bring English readers a representative sampling of the poetry Delmira Agustini published before her untimely death on July 6, 1914 at the age of twenty-seven. Translated by native Uruguayan Alejandro Cáceres and including work from each of Agustini's four published books, Selected Poetry of Delmira Agustini: Poetics of Eros is a response to a resurgent interest not just in the poems but in the passionate and daring woman behind them and the social and political world she inhabited. Delmira Agustini was born in Montevideo, Uruguay, on October 24, 1886 to wealthy parents of German and Italian descent. She publi...

Mexico
In the first half of the 20th century, Mexico was home to a burgeoning of art comparable in energy to the political revolution that shook the country between 1910 and 1920. This surge of artistic activity is the subject of this compelling new book, which presents the work of Mexican artists—from the social-realist painters Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros to the photographers Agust�n Jim�nez and Manuel �lvarez Bravo—alongside that of their international contemporaries, figures as diverse as Philip Guston, Josef and Anni Albers, and Edward Burra. Illustrated with some 150 striking images, Adrian Locke’s incisive text explores the artistic documentation of the dramatic changes wrought by the revolution, the government’s role in employing artists to promote its reforms, the emergence of a native modernism, and the remarkable contribution of European and American artists and intellectuals, including Eisenstein, Trotsky, and Andr� Breton, to Mexico’s cultural renaissance.

The Churches and Democracy in Brazil
Brazil is a rapidly emerging country. Brazilian theology, namely the Theology of Liberation, has become well known in the 1970s and 1980s. The politically active Base Ecclesial Communities and the progressive posture of the Roman Catholic Church contrasted with a steadily growing number of evangelicals, mostly aligned with the military regime but attractive precisely to the poor. After democratic transition in the mid-1980s, the context changed considerably. Democracy, growing religious pluralism and mobility, a vibrant civil society, the political ascension of the Worker's Party and growing wealth, albeit within a continuously wide social gap, are some of the elements that show the need of ...
