Federico Garcia Lorca and the Culture of Male Homosexuality
Spain in the twentieth century gave birth to an array of astounding artistic and literary talent, including the passionately iconoclastic writer Federico Garcia Lorca. But his works were ill received in the homophobic atmosphere of institutionalized Spanish criticism. Because of this atmosphere, even today's critics have effectively marginalized and disavowed intimations of homo-affectivity and homoeroticism in the great Spanish works. This book first appeared in Spain in 1991 as counter-discourse against those prevailing ideological structures. Before its appearance, no significant work had focused on the position of Spanish culture towards homosexuality or on how homosexuality could affect...
The Comic Spirit of Federico Garcia Lorca
During the years since his death, Federico García Lorca, Spain's best-known twentieth-century poet and playwright, has generally been considered a writer of tragedy. Three of his major plays are fatalistic stories of suffering and death, and his poetry is filled with dread. Yet most of Lorca's dramatic production consists of comedies and farces. Throughout his poetry and prose, as well as in his most somber plays, runs an undercurrent of humor—dark irony and satire—that is in no way contradictory to his tragic view of life. On the contrary, as Virginia Higginbotham demonstrates, through humor Lorca defines, intensifies, and tries to come to terms with what he sees as the essentially hop...

Summary of Hector A. Garcia's Alpha God
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The majority of the world’s religions portray a god that is fearsome and male. This god is the source of violence and oppression, and his depiction demands reckoning. #2 God was created in the image of man. Men have historically used God to justify their worst impulses, and this has been evident throughout religious history. Men have sought dominance in the manner of male apes, using violence to obtain evolutionary rewards such as food, territory, and sex. #3 The god of the Abrahamic religions, and the gods of many other religions around the world, is a dominant alpha male. He has acquired power and used it to control material and reproductive resources. #4 The premise of this book is that God is not a dominant ape, and that religion is not used to justify out-group hatred or violence. Rather, religion is used to navigate interactions with other humans, and it is these instinctive drives that are behind every form of violence and oppression.
