Goths reenacting Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death" on Halloween night...what could possibly go wrong? Despite her desire to make the Wisteria Tearoom a haven of tranquility, Ellen Rosings can't rid her parlors of the shadow of death. Fascinated with the tearoom's resident ghost, her customers flock to spirit-tours-with-tea, and to crown all, the office manager and her Goth friends plan a Halloween masquerade recreating a classic horror story. Between his heavy workload and his fits of jealousy when Ellen looks at anything male, Detective Tony Arag n can't offer her much comfort. Are the flashes of light she's been seeing some kind of message from the spirit world? Or is it just coincidence when a body turns up where she last saw a gleam? This cozy mystery is the fifth in the Wisteria Tearoom Mysteries series.

"The book contains a comprehensive introduction that describes Spanish theater in its Golden Age, what is known of the author’s life and times, contemporary stagings, and an extensive analysis of the text. The story unfolds as a cross between a jilted-lover scenario and a whodunit murder mystery. A woman laments her departed lover, a sister cross-dresses to avenge her murdered brother, a man duels with his cousin over lost honor, and before long, the dead man turns up as a ghost, or a bar maid, or a female peddler. Questions about identity abound in the witty El muerto disimulado / Presumed Dead. The transnational nature of this clever comedy complicates meanings, often producing bilingual wordplay that underscores the self-conscious, gender-bending, ludic character of the play and of theater in general."--

Masquerade And Social Justice In Contemporary Latin American Fiction written by Helene Carol Weldt-Basson and has been published by University of New Mexico Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2017-05-01 with Literary Criticism categories.
Contemporary Latin American fiction establishes a unique connection between masquerade, frequently motivated by stigma or trauma, and social justice. Using an interdisciplinary approach that combines philosophy, history, psychology, literature, and social justice theory, this study delineates the synergistic connection between these two themes. Weldt-Basson examines fourteen novels by twelve different Latin American authors: Mario Vargas Llosa, Sergio Galindo, Augusto Roa Bastos, Fernando del Paso, Mayra Santos-Febres, Isabel Allende, Carmen Boullosa, Antonio Benítez-Rojo, Marcela Serrano, Sara Sefchovich, Luisa Valenzuela, and Ariel Dorfman. She elucidates the varieties of social justice operating in the plots of contemporary Latin American novels: distributive, postmodern/feminist, postcolonial, transitional, and historical justices. The author further examines how masquerade and disguise aid in articulating the theme of social justice, why this is important, and how it relates to Latin American history and the historical novel.

In its conventional meaning, masquerade refers to a festive gathering of people wearing masks and elegant costumes. But traditional forms of masquerade have evolved over the past century to include the representation of alternate identities in the media and venues of popular culture, including television, film, the internet, theater, museums, sports arenas, popular magazines and a range of community celebrations, reenactments and conventions. This collection of fresh essays examines the art and function of masquerade from a broad range of perspectives. From African slave masquerade in New World iconography, to the familiar Guy Fawkes masks of the Occupy Wall Street movement, to the branded identities created by celebrities like Madonna, Beyonce and Lady Gaga, the essays show how masquerade permeates modern life.

This is an anthology of poems written over the course of fifteen years weaved with diverse themes that focus mainly on the journey than the destination. It also stresses on the aspect of being human and absorbing one's surroundings, dreams and visions, yet not getting caught up in the madness of the fast life that currently dictates us. The format of the poems ebb and flow from classical to modern archetypes and stereotypes with the added essence of rhyme, reason, and random, however clichd it may seem to be. It is an overall reflection of experiences, observations, and perspectives expressed through an art form which is muse-driven and dream-laden. It is true that beauty lies is the eye of the beholder, but it is in the heart of a reader that the life of an art form sincerely lies. This was purely done for the joy of creative writing and is not meant for critics to revel or patrons to parade upon. I hope you skip a beat, shed a tear, carve a grin, burn in rage, breathe a sigh, and kill your sorrows, for we are all kindred spirits of an eternal fire.

In Digging the Days of the Dead, Juanita Garciagodoy depicts various aspects of the celebration - including Prehispanic and Spanish Catholic traces on its development as well as folk and popular culture versions - and describes its changing place in contemporary Mexico. Garciagodoy examines in detail differences in attitudes toward death in Mexico and the United States. In part because the living do not exclude the dead from their family circle, celebrants of Dias de muertos treat death as an intimate life companion and fear it less than their northern counterparts, who tend to view death as inimical.
