Cuba's cultural influence throughout the Western Hemisphere, and especially in the United States, has been disproportionally large for so small a country. This landmark volume is the first comprehensive overview of poetry written over the past sixty years. Presented in a beautiful Spanish-English en face edition, The Whole Island makes available the astonishing achievement of a wide range of Cuban poets, including such well-known figures as Nicolás Guillén, José Lezama Lima, and Nancy Morejón, but also poets widely read in Spanish who remain almost unknown to the English-speaking world—among them Fina García Marruz, José Kozer, Raúl Hernández Novás, and Ángel Escobar—and poets born since the Revolution, like Rogelio Saunders, Omar Pérez, Alessandra Molina, and Javier Marimón. The translations, almost all of them new, convey the intensity and beauty of the accompanying Spanish originals. With their work deeply rooted in Cuban culture, many of these poets—both on and off the island—have been at the center of the political and social changes of this tempestuous period. The poems offered here constitute an essential source for understanding the literature and culture of Cuba, its diaspora, and the Caribbean at large, and provide an unparalleled perspective on what it means to be Cuban.

El falso documental ha pasado de ser una producción anecdótica a convertirse en una categoría cinematográfica reconocida por el gran público. Aunque su popularidadactual es incuestionable, no se trata de una forma nueva, sino que podemos rastrearla desde el inicio del cinematógrafo. Este libro recopila algunos de los títulos más emblemáticos, buscando a través de su estudio las características y la estructura que lo definen como modelo documental.En sus páginas se mantiene que todo fake puede ser estudiado no solo por los códigos tradicionalmente adscritos a los relatos de realidad que parasita, sino también por el contexto de su producción, su recepción y por la actitud mantenida por el texto. Alguno de los aspectos que mejor definen el falso documental es su falta de vocaciónde engaño y su insistencia en retratar los medios de comunicación de una manera subversiva.

La novela sobre la vida de Hedy Lamarr, una mujer clave en la historia del siglo XX. Friedrich "Fritz" Mandl es un joven austríaco que se hace cargo a sus 19 años de la destruida fábrica de armas de su padre. En apenas una década, llega a amasar una de las fortunas más grandes del planeta. Es rico, excéntrico, poderoso, mujeriego y astuto. Un personaje surrealista, adorado y temido por muchos. Durante la preguerra, en los años 30, entre su cartera de clientes cuenta con Mussolini, Hitler y Franco, entre otros. Entre sus amistades cercanas destacan nombres como Truman Capote, Hemingway, Orson Welles, Eva Perón y el general Perón. En 1933, al ver la película Éxtasis, donde la actriz Hedwig Kiesler interpreta el primer desnudo total femenino y el primer orgasmo en la pantalla grande, se enamora de ella. Hedy, era una joven bella y superdotada, estudiante de ingeniería y teatro. Tenía, además, una vida plagada de amantes. Tras filmar Éxtasis se casa con Fritz y viven una pasión desenfrenada; pero luego, a causa de las infidelidades y los celos, la relación toma un giro peligroso. Él la encierra en su castillo de Salzburgo, donde organiza los eventos, las reuniones y los negocios con políticos, empresarios y jueces. Hedy logra escapar y así emprende su huida a través de Europa. A bordo de un transatlántico con destino a Nueva York conoce a Louis B. Meyer, presidente de la Metro Goldwyn Meyer; antes incluso de llegar a destino firman un contrato y ella se convierte en Hedy Lamarr, la mujer más bella del cine, que llegará a triunfar como famosa actriz en Hollywood. Pero Hedy no es solo belleza y glamour, también es poder, inteligencia y trabajo. Además de cultivar su carrera como actriz, estudia ingeniería e inventa y patenta un sistema de comunicaciones para teleguiar torpedos y asegurar los contactos entre los aliados durante la guerra. En esta tecnología se basa el sistema que utilizamos hoy para comunicarnos con los teléfonos móviles, el Wi-Fi, el Bluetooth y el GPS. Una historia verdadera que acontece entre una Europa en guerra, los Estados Unidos y Argentina. La crítica ha dicho... «Me ha encantado descubrir un pedacito más sobre esta maravillosa mujer.» AndreaBookstagram «Constituye una reivindicación de Hedy Lamarr hoy bastante olvidada que fue mucho más que una mera estrella en el firmamento del cine.» Catalunya Press «Encontré en Hedy una expresión de rebeldía [...] No se detuvo en la gloria de ser una muñeca de la gran pantalla, admirada y elogiada por todos. Tuvo inquietudes que logró cristalizar en una época dominada por el machismo. Eso es fuerza, valor.» Entrevista a Roberto Lapid en Resistencia cultural «Una novela muy recomendable, que te hace desear volver a ver las películas de esta actriz que llegó a rechazar el papel protagonista en Casablanca.» El baúl de Xandris «Es una historia verdadera, que nos adentra en los secretos de una relación condenada a destruirse desde dentro.» Los libros de Danae «Roberto Lapid novela la vida de Hedwig Kiesler, un excepcional personaje histórico.» El Correo

This book takes an innovative look at international relations. Focusing on the worldwide campaign against abuses by the right-wing authoritarian regime in Uruguay (1973-1984), it explores how norms and ideas interact with political interests, both global and domestic. It examines joint actions by differently-motivated actors such as the leftist activists who had to flee Uruguay in these years, the Organization of American States, The United Nations, Amnesty International, and the United States. It traces language and procedures for making their claims. The chief goal, however, is to peruse the specific reasons that led these actors to endorse the central core of liberal rights that gave foundation to this system. A close examination of the available documents shows that even as they joined efforts to protest abuses, they were still pursuing their individual agendas, which is often overlooked in the existing scholarship on human rights transnational activism. The book pays special attention to the Uruguayan exiles, analyzing why and how leftist activists and leaders adopted the human rights language, which had so far been used to attack communism in the context of the Cold War.

One of the greatest collaborations of cinema history, L'Âge d'Or(1930) united the geniuses of Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dali in the making of a Surrealist masterpiece - a uniquely savage blend of visual poetry and social criticism. The film was banned and vilified for many years in many countries, becoming justly legendary for its subversive eroticism and its furious dissection of 'civilised' values. In a remarkable, intuitive reading of L'Âge d'Or, Paul Hammond interweaves a detailed account of the extraordinary circumstances of its production with a dazzling interpretation of its aesthetic and political nuances. At once authoritative and polemical, this is a study entirely in tune with its subject, a fitting celebration of a major landmark in world cinema.
