Doors and Mirrors

... 44 writers from 14 countries, a wide range of themes and styles. ... what is most striking is the spirit which animates each work--if spirit seems too vague a word, then let us say conviction or energy or even attitude. It races through the stories and poems ... uniting the literary entities so that they seem to complete each other. This spirit, however, is not ephemeral, for these writers, in digging out their roots have touched what is essential in themselves. ... --from the prefaceDonated by Wendy Larsen, 8/2011.

  • Publisher: A&C Black

The Contemporary Spanish-American Novel provides an accessible introduction to an important World literature. While many of the authors covered—Aira, Bolaño, Castellanos Moya, Vásquez—are gaining an increasing readership in English and are frequently taught, there is sparse criticism in English beyond book reviews. This book provides the guidance necessary for a more sophisticated and contextualized understanding of these authors and their works. Underestimated or unfamiliar Spanish American novels and novelists are introduced through conceptually rigorous essays. Sections on each writer include: *the author's reception in their native country, Spanish America, and Spain *biographical history *a critical examination of their work, including key themes and conceptual concerns *translation history *scholarly reception The Contemporary Spanish-American Novel offers an authoritative guide to a rich and varied novelistic tradition. It covers all demographic areas, including United States Latino authors, in exploring the diversity of this literature and its major themes, such as exile, migration, and gender representation.

Café

Este proyecto editorial fue una iniciativa en el año 2004 del Dr. Juan Luis Mejía Arango. Recién posesionado como rector de la Universidad EAFIT, invita a los profesores Juan Carlos López del grupo de Historia Empresarial y a mí, y luego de una amena charla, nos ayuda a trazar y orientar el trayecto del proceso de investigación, considerando como primera etapa la actividad minera. Con ella, nació la primera idea de la Antioquia industriosa, especialmente por la llegada de extranjeros de diferentes nacionalidades que importaron maquinaria y aplicaron técnicas rigurosas para la extracción del oro. Luego, con lo aprendido en la minería auroargentífera, se configuró una élite y luego una comunidad agrícola de la mano del café y de la colonización antioqueña. Y a futuro, se pretende continuar indagando acerca de la historia del comercio y la industria, con sus diversos sectores productivos.
