L’audàcia del coneixement
Commemorar el mig segle d’existència d’una institució tan rellevant com una universitat pública no pot ser ni un simple tràmit formal ni tampoc un exercici purament nostàlgic. La rellevància social de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, un dels principals centres de recerca i de formació superior de l’Estat espanyol, obliga a posar, si se’n vol repassar la història, un especial èmfasi en l’avaluació de l’obra realitzada i en l’esforç intel·lectual esmerçat pels milers de persones que l’han integrada aquests cinquanta anys. Creiem que és una obligació, i també una gran oportunitat, analitzar amb un cert aprofundiment la trajectòria de la UAB, avaluar-ne la ...

Borrowed Words
The book contends that the acceptance of translation and imitation in the literary life of a country does not imply denying the specific conditions created by political borders in the constitution of a national literature, that is, the existence of national borders framing literary life. What it does is recognize new and different frontiers that destabilize the national confines (as well as the nationalistic values) of literary history. In translation and imitation, borders are experienced not as the demarcation of otherness, but rather as crossroads in the quest for identity."--Jacket.
Gabriela Mistral's Struggle with God and Man
Chilean poet, educator, diplomat, and feminist Gabriela Mistral (1889-1957) rose from poverty in the foothills of the Andes to become the first Latin American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1945. This volume provides both a detailed biography of the author and a careful analysis of her writing. Chronicling the personal, psychological, and social currents of Mistral's life and times, it addresses such topics as her finances, illness, and sexuality. Literary analysis considers the sacred and secular influences on Mistral's oevre, including Catholicism, the Hebraic tradition, Theosophy, and Buddhism. By recounting Mistral's intelligence and perseverance in overcoming her life's obstacles to reach the pinnacle of her field, this book establishes her as a model for Chileans and for humanity.

Neighborhood as Refuge
An examination of environmental revitalization efforts in low-income communities in Boston, Barcelona, and Havana that help heal traumatized urban neighborhoods. Environmental justice as studied in a variety of disciplines is most often associated with redressing disproportionate exposure to pollution, contamination, and toxic sites. In Neighborhood as Refuge, Isabelle Anguelovski takes a broader view of environmental justice, examining wide-ranging comprehensive efforts at neighborhood environmental revitalization that include parks, urban agriculture, fresh food markets, playgrounds, housing, and waste management. She investigates and compares three minority, low-income neighborhoods that ...
