In Evil Hour
In Evil Hour is the thrilling story about the smears, defamations, infidelities, and torrential rains that afflict a small Colombian town, and the sacrifice of a boy that brings torment and chaos to an end, from the masterful Gabriel García Márquez, author of One Hundred Years of Solitude and Love in the Time of Cholera. One morning, slanderous posters start appearing all over the town, revealing family secrets and maligning individuals. Ghosts of the past reappear, along with old feuds and infidelities. Torrential rains then flood the town and chaos is everywhere. Neighbors suspect each other, yet no one knows who is responsible. Finally, a boy is made the scapegoat and tragedy ensues. In Evil Hour contains vivid characters who reflect the humor and pathos of everyday life. This brooding novel clearly points the way to the flowering of García Márquez’s genius in his later One Hundred Years of Solitude.
Alternative Art and Anthropology
While the importance of the relationship between anthropology and contemporary art has long been recognized, the discussion has tended to be among scholars from North America, Europe, and Australia; until now, scholarship and experiences from other regions have been largely absent from mainstream debate. Alternative Art and Anthropology: Global Encounters rectifies this by offering a ground-breaking new approach to the subject. Entirely dedicated to perspectives from Asia, Latin America, and Africa, the book advances our understanding of the connections between anthropology and contemporary art on a global scale. Across ten chapters, a range of anthropologists, artists, and curators from cou...

Psychoanalysis of Aging and Maturity
As developing countries increasingly confront the issues of an aging population, this important book identifies the key period in the life cycle in which changes to the body, as well as concomitant psychological developments, result in the entering of a new phase of life, maturescence. The author defines the metapsychology of maturescence from a psychoanalytic standpoint, detaching it from the concepts of midlife and middle age. Supported by clinical examples, the book defines the stimuli which are the precursors to this phase, before examining the complete set of psychological challenges it entails. The author also highlights how maturescence has been illustrated in key literary figures in the 20th century and draws parallels with the mythical cycle of the hero. This fascinating and original book will be essential reading for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists and any professional working with issues around aging.

La mala ora
Una storia emblematica che sembra superare il confine tra realtà e immaginario, un romanzo intenso e visionario nel quale García Márquez anticipa molti dei temi e dei simboli che compariranno nel capolavoro Cent'anni di solitudine.
Topografías Invisibles. Estrategias críticas entre Arte y Geografía
Este libro reflexiona acerca de las nuevas consideraciones geográficas desarrolladas recientemente por las prácticas artísticas frente a las múltiples problemáticas territoriales invisibilizadas por la economía del poder capitalista. En él se da voz a artistas, geógrafos, arquitectos e historiadores procedentes de distintos puntos de Europa que explican y analizan el creciente marco de experiencias iniciadas en la escena artística contemporánea. Todos coinciden en señalar la importancia de lo que se oculta tras la geopolítica actual, y también la necesidad de abrir nuevas perspectivas al hecho histórico, utilitario y simbólico que define los lugares. El conjunto de estudios que aquí se recopilan pone de manifiesto cómo el arte, desde sus posiciones practicadas en contextos urbanos y naturales, se ha implicado en la reinterpretación, transgresión e incluso transformación de los usos y las imágenes del territorio. Estos nuevos enfoques artísticos sin duda generan nuevos conocimientos en torno al paisaje social, cultural y físico de nuestra era global.
