Mientras dormías, cantabas

Mientras dormías, cantabas, la novela debut de Nayareth Pino Luna (Santiago, 1990), narra los acontecimientos que ocurren durante una celebración familiar de año nuevo en un barrio de la periferia de Santiago. Marta, la protagonista del relato, se ve enfrentada a su pasado y está obligada a sobrellevar una noche que parece no acabar. A través de un lenguaje articulado en torno a la cumbia, la autora le da ritmo a la narración, la cual está cargada de elementos de un cotidiano popular, que convierten a esta novela en un relato que te transporta a las emociones de una madrugada familiar de un primero de enero. Mediante la nostalgia del año que se va y el miedo que puede generar el futuro, Mientras dormías, cantabas se traduce en una historia potente y emotiva sobre los lazos familiares, el duelo y la necesidad de encontrar una verdad. Nayareth Pino Luna (Santiago, 1990) Licenciada en Letras Hispánicas, profesora y magíster en Educación (PUC). Ha trabajado por la enseñanza de la escritura en el aula y la formación de docentes en ejercicio. El año 2020 se adjudicó la beca de creación literaria del Ministerio de las Culturas para escribir, esta, su primera novela.

The Romantic Dogs is a bilingual collection of forty-four poems presents English readers with a chance to encounter the phenomenon of Roberto Bolaño as a poet: his own preferred and strongest literary persona. (When asked, 'What makes you believe that you're a better poet than a novelist?' Bolaño replied, 'The poetry makes me blush less.') These poems - intimate, moving, witty and wide-ranging - are as diverse in form as his fiction and will offer the reader equal delight. Expertly translated from the original Spanish by Laura Healy, this is as an opportunity to encounter a poetic voice like no other; a voice hailed by Susan Sontag as 'the real thing and the rarest'.

Philosophy is traditionally understood as the search for universal truths, and philosophers are supposed to transmit those truths beyond the limits of their own culture. But, today, we have become sceptical about the ability of an individual philosopher to engage in 'universal thinking', so philosophy seems to capitulate in the face of cultural relativism. In Introduction to Antiphilosophy, Boris Groys argues that modern 'antiphilosophy' does not pursue the universality of thought as its goal but proposes in its place the universality of life, material forces, social practices, passions, and experiences - angst, vitality, ecstasy, the gift, revolution, laughter or 'profane illumination' - and he analyses this shift from thought to life and action in the work of thinkers from Kierkegaard to Derrida, from Nietzsche to Benjamin. Ranging across the history of modern thought, Introduction to Antiphilosophy endeavours to liberate philosophy from the stereotypes that hinder its development.

Network Aesthetics

  • Categories: Art

Even as "network" has become a contemporary keyword, its overuse has limited its analytic usefulness. In the enthusiasm that orbits the concept, the network is too easily taken up as a term that we should already know. Patrick Jagoda claims that we do not, in fact, know networks, in part because of their very ubiquity and variety. His book shows how a range of popular aesthetic forms mediate our experience of networks and yield up greater insight into this critical concept. Each chapter of "Network Aesthetics" considers how a different contemporary genre makes sense of decentralized network structure, from fiction, film, and television to popular videogames such as Introversion's "Uplink," experimental games such as Jason Rohrer's "Between," and emergent transmedia storytelling forms such as "Alternate Reality Games." Jagoda wants to show that network aesthetics, in all of these cases, are not simply the quality of a genre; more substantively, they are a critical corollary to an era in which interconnection has become a key cultural framework. "Network Aesthetics" cuts through the cliches of sublime interconnection and illuminates the ordinary, lived aspects of networked life.

Under Suspicion

The public generally regards the media with suspicion and distrust. Therefore, the media's primary concern is to regain that trust through the production of sincerity. Advancing the field of media studies in a truly innovative way, Boris Groys focuses on the media's affect of sincerity and its manufacture of trust to appease skeptics. Groys identifies forms of media sincerity and its effect on politics, culture, society, and conceptions of the self. He relies on different philosophical writings thematizing the gaze of the other, from the theories of Heidegger, Sartre, Mauss, and Bataille to the poststructuralist formulations of Lacan and Derrida. He also considers media "states of exception" and their creation of effects of sincerity—a strategy that feeds the media's predilection for the extraordinary and the sensational, further fueling the public's suspicions. Emphasizing the media's production of emotion over the presentation (or lack thereof) of "facts," Groys launches a timely study boldly challenging the presumed authenticity of the media's worldview.
