La lengua portuguesa: Vol. I
Hace un año se celebraba en la Facultad de Filología de la Universidad de Salamanca, el Congreso La Lengua Portuguesa, bajo los auspicios del Centro de Estudios Brasileños, promotor de esta justificada y necesaria iniciativa en el contexto hispánico. Estos volúmenes se publican, bajo la denominación genérica de La Lengua Portuguesa las más de ciento cincuenta conferencias y comunicaciones de este magno Congreso. En torno a dos grandes bloques, Lengua y Literatura, en los que hemos aglutinado todas las intervenciones, se articulan diversos ejes fundamentales, también semánticamente muy ricos, encuadrados todos ellos bajo el concepto de lengua y cultura de expresión portuguesa: meto...
El manglar de la memoria
El manglar de la memoria surge de una necesidad imperiosa en el ámbito de la crítica literaria colombiana: para el año 2020, con catorce libros publicados a lo largo de casi cuarenta años, Tomás González se ha convertido en uno de los escritores más importantes de nuestro país. Sin embargo, a diferencia de otros autores de su generación, como Fernando Vallejo, Evelio Rosero o Laura Restre-po, aún no contamos con una producción crítica amplia y visible que acompañe su obra. Hay una serie de importantes reseñas, múltiples tesis universitarias y algunos artículos académicos que han iniciado esta labor. No obstante, un es-critor de su talla merece un esfuerzo más sistemático p...
Psychology of Liberation
Since the mid-1980s, the psychology of liberation movement has been a catalyst for collective and individual change in communities throughout Latin America, and beyond; and recent political developments are making its powerful, transformative ideas more relevant than ever before. Psychology of Liberation: Theory and Applications updates the activist frameworks developed by Ignacio Martin-Baro and Paulo Freire with compelling stories from the frontlines of conflict in the developing and developed worlds, as social science and psychological practice are allied with struggles for peace, justice, and equality. In these chapters, liberation is presented as both an ongoing process and a core dimen...
Saline and Alkaline Soils in Latin America
This book provides the first comprehensive overview of saline and alkaline soils in Latin America, known for having one of the most extensive surface of salt-affected soils in the world. It is organized along two main axes: soils and vegetation. The book discusses the occurrence of such soils in the region, focusing mainly in management strategies for their sustainable use, and it presents accounts of natural vegetation and crops in the various environments of the region. Social impacts of such conditions and ongoing projects to overcome them are considered. Likewise, the book highlights physiological mechanisms that are responsible for the negative effects these soils exert on crops and forest resources and determine vegetation distribution in them. Plant breeding challenges and new perspectives for such environments are discussed. Technologies such as irrigation and drainage are included. The readership includes soil and plant scientists, as well as policy makers.

Juan Gabriel Vásquez: la distorsión deliberada
Toda novela genuina nace en diálogo o discusión con la tradición literaria. Entre los narradores hispanoamericanos contemporáneos son pocos los que escriben tan imbuidos de esa dinámica como el colombiano Juan Gabriel Vásquez. Este ensayo cuenta cómo Vásquez, en novelas como Los informantes, Historia secreta de Costaguana o El ruido de las cosas al caer se enfrenta a la angustia de la influencia y crea a sus precursores. Así, Juan Gabriel Vásquez: la distorsión deliberada se deja leer como una novela de aprendizaje sobre un escritor que a través de la confrontación con antepasados tan ilustres como García Márquez, Roth, Conrad o Sebald, poco a poco va forjando su propia poéti...
