Mundos imaginados. Con A de Animación 13
El presente número de Con A de animación profundiza en la relación privilegiada que la imagen animada, en su condición de fabricada, tiene con lo imaginario. La animación ha sido un elemento esencial en el cine de fantasía, en su función como efecto visual para sugerir lo inventado o lo sobrenatural, por no decir que los filmes de animación integran una rama central del propio género de la fantasía. Pero la animación también tiene una enorme capacidad para mostrarnos los vericuetos de la vida psíquica, de hacer visible mediante objetos animados y escenarios en metamorfosis lo que es sentido y experimentado, aunque quizá por ello, como ocurre en nuestros sueños íntimos, la ani...

The Case for Marriage
A groundbreaking look at marriage, one of the most basic and universal of all human institutions, which reveals the emotional, physical, economic, and sexual benefits that marriage brings to individuals and society as a whole. The Case for Marriage is a critically important intervention in the national debate about the future of family. Based on the authoritative research of family sociologist Linda J.

Today a broad consensus holds that marriage is a bad deal for women, that divorce is better for childr...
Venezuela
Before 1989, US scholars emphasized Venezuela's status as an exceptional Latin American nation. Most importantly, it served as an ideal model for US policy in Latin America. All this changed in the mass unrest during the week of February 27, 1989. This book explores the changing attitudes about Venezuela and it's role in the rest of the world.
Self Portrait in Green
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
