Santiago Rojas and The Golden Wall to The Empire of the Sun
Santiago Rojas and The Golden Wall to The Empire of the Sun, Book One By: Jose Duron Santiago Rojas and The Golden Wall to The Empire of The Sun takes place in a distant future Earth. An Earth with many of today’s world issues resolved and with many new ones to solve. It tells the story of Santi, a thirteen-year-old boy whose biggest dream is meeting his mother, a strong woman who had to leave him behind to provide a better life. With this in mind, he sets sail to Simeka, the most advanced nation in the world. As he embarks on his journey to fulfill his dream, he finds himself entangled in a revolution in his home country and the rise of a global threat, a threat only Santi can stop… or start. As it is with every dream, Santi goes through trials and tribulations that test his strength, will, sanity, and most of all, his position on the conflict brewing inside of him—to be or not to be.
The Sweet Penance of Music
"This book provides a fresh, comprehensive view of the musical life and its cultural context in Santiago, Chile, from its foundation in 1541 to the end of the colonial period, roughly in 1810. Combining the study of archival documents, secondary sources and music scores, it deals with different aspects of musical life in the cathedral (chap. 1), convents and monasteries (chap. 2), private houses (chap. 3) and public spaces (chap. 4), considering, as well, the life and function of musicians as crucial agents in the music field. Despite its focus on a particular city of Latin America, it raises this issue from a broad perspective that explores its links with other urban centers (especially Lima), within the globalizing framework of the colonial system. The idea of music as a "sweet penance," belonging to a nun harpist in a convent of Santiago at the end of the eighteenth century, gives rise to consider duality as an essential trait of the period and its music"--

El Partido Democrático de Chile
Este libro reconstruye minuciosamente la trayectoria de la primera organización política popular chilena, el Partido Democrático, desde su nacimiento en 1887 hasta la instauración de la dictadura de Ibáñez en 1927, período durante el cual alcanzó su máxima influencia antes de iniciar su largo y definitivo ocaso. Presenta una visión de conjunto, a la vez que detallada, de la época más importante de la vida de este partido, ofreciendo explicaciones tanto sobre su desarrollo y auge como sobre su integración al sistema parlamentarista, su creciente corrupción, distanciamiento con los movimientos sociales emergentes en la segunda y tercera década del siglo XX e inevitable decadencia.
