'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

La formación de mediadores para la promoción de la lectura

En la promoción de la lectura, como en la animación a la lectura, sobre todo cuando los destinatarios de las mismas son niños o adolescentes, es muy importante la figura del mediador, papel que, en esas edades, suelen cumplir adultos con perfiles específicos (padres, maestros o bibliotecarios, aunque, en buena lógica, deberíamos considerar también como tales a los editores y a los libreros). El mediador es el puente o enlace entre los libros y esos primeros lectores que propicia y facilita el diálogo entre ambos. El Máster de Promoción de la Lectura y Literatura Infantil de la Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha que se puede cursar desde la red y a distancia, tiene como objetivo bás...

Mein Traum von Mexiko

„Mein Traum von Mexiko“ ist sicherlich der autobiografischste Roman der Mannheimer Autorin Nora Noé, die ihre schriftstellerische Arbeit bisher hauptsächlich dem Jungbusch widmete. In ihrem neuen mitreißenden Buch erzählt sie in beeindruckender Ehrlichkeit von der verbotenen leidenschaftlichen Liebe zu dem katholischen Priester Aurelio. Gleichzeitig gibt sie einen anschaulichen Einblick in die mexikanische Kultur und Gesellschaft. Die Mexikokennerin taucht tief in die Lebenswelt eines faszinierenden Landes ein, die sich einem Touristen in dieser Form niemals erschließen wird. Trotzdem verliert Nora Noé auch in diesem Roman ihre eigenen Mannheimer Wurzeln nicht aus den Augen.

Reconstructing Criminality in Latin America

The only reader currently available on criminality in Latin America, Reconstructing Criminality in Latin America reconstructs the way in which different Latin American societies have viewed, described, defined, and reacted to criminal behavior. Crime in Latin America is explored in terms of gender, race, class, and criminological theory. The highly readable essays in this book explore how Catholic notions of sin, natural law, the "divine" rights of absolutist monarchs, liberal rights of "man," positivism, and social Darwinism received a sympathetic, even enthusiastic, endorsement from policy makers throughout Latin America. Reconstructing Criminality in Latin America also shows how new methodologies have given scholars deeper insight into the significance of crime in Latin American societies. The selections testify that the insights of scholars like Eric Hobsbawm and Michel Foucault are the foundations of modern histories of crime in Latin America. This book is ideal for criminal justice, sociology, and Latin American social history courses.
