Spain is Different. La restauración monumental durante el segundo franquismo
Tras el eslogan que da título al libro se articulan trece capítulos que profundizan en la restauración monumental llevada a cabo por instituciones y arquitectos en los años del desarrollismo (1959-1975). Confluyen varias líneas de estudio: la vida y obra de los arquitectos, las intervenciones en regiones españolas con casos concretos junto a nociones teóricas acerca del nacionalismo y el turismo, dos factores esenciales para comprender las intervenciones realizadas en este periodo. Las distintas aportaciones presentan una amplia documentación gráfica –planos y alzados procedentes de proyectos originales, documentos de archivos personales de arquitectos, así como fotografías de época, a veces confrontadas con imágenes del estado actual de los inmuebles– que complementa los textos, fruto de la compilación y tratamiento sistemático de datos. Muestra finalmente las singularidades de la praxis restauradora en una época de significativos cambios económicos, sociales y culturales.
Latina Evangélicas
Latina Evangelicas: A Theological Survey from the Margins is a constructive and postcolonial examination of the theology of Protestant Latinas who reside in the United States. Written by three Latinas who have pastored and who teach in Latina/o communities, the book seeks to expand beyond Latina feminist and mujerista voices to include those whose perspectives have not yet been heard. It thus introduces an important theological perspective to a wider audience, and provides an important resource that has been lacking for evangelicas/os and other marginalized groups who study in various theological programs. Key terminology, such as evangelica, is defined throughout, and a glossary is included...
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
The Mosquito Bite Author
Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.
