Esta novela de Gustav Meyrink se basa sobre la leyenda del golem, una criatura hecha de barro a la que dio vida el rabino Lew en el gueto de Praga durante el siglo XVI para defender a los judíos de persecuciones antisemitas. La historia cuenta además que el golem escapó al control de su creador, causó terribles daños en la ciudad y desde entonces aparece cada 33 años. A día de hoy se sigue contando que la criatura vive tras una ventana cerrada en el desván de la antigua sinagoga de Staranova, hoy clausurada. El golem fascinó a los lectores alemanes a partir de su publicación en 1915 y fue elegida por Jorge Luis Borges como uno de sus 100 libros favoritos.

Based on his intelligence and the progress he continues to make, Nathaniel rises fast within the Office of Internal Affairs, and is not only given the almost impossible task to capture members of the Resistance, who seek to destroy the power of wizards, but he must also face a dangerous golem that is making random attacks on London and other areas, while his relationship with the djinni Bartimaeus remains as teasing and complex as ever.

La desilusión de la imagen. Arqueología, cuerpo(s) y mirada(s), plantea que las imágenes son vínculos entre distintas épocas y culturas, son síntomas e indicios que dejan huellas en el imaginario cultural. Son la elegíaca memoria como musa que deambula por los tiempos pero fuera de los tiempos (genealogía) o, en otros términos, las imágenes son Mnemosyne, es decir, la musa de todas las musas. Una arqueología de la imagen, implica considerar a la imagen desde la intermedialidad (entre-medios), los cuerpos y las miradas. Concebirla desde una crítica de la cultura en una contemporaneidad atravesada por la crisis. La pregunta ¿qué son las imágenes? que se formula desde la debilidad de cierta inocencia de la escritura, adquiere toda su dimensión desde el momento en que se confunde imagen con visualidad o imagen con medios audiovisuales, dejando por el camino todos los restos de imágenes que no son visuales. Aún más, ese debate se torna más complejo, cuando en su trasfondo está la «memoria» del holocausto (o de los holocaustos); las imágenes de la crisis política, económica y social o los miles de refugiados, en la paradigmática imagen de un niño muerto en la playa, deambulando por geografías europeas. La imagen es, en efecto, «nómada», viaja por territorios y culturas. Entonces, la inocencia de la pregunta se transforma en la imagen frágil de los que no tienen imagen. «La propuesta de Víctor Silva Echeto, es una de las mejor articuladas que conozco para pensar posibles alternativas a la situación de impasse a que parece abocarnos el mundo contemporáneo.» JENARO TALENS (escritor).

"For centuries, Jews have remembered the Golem, a creature of clay said to have been given life by the mystical incantations of the mysterious Maharal, Rabbi Yehuda Loew, leader of the Jewish community of 16th-century Prague. Some versions have the Golem as a lovable, clumsy mute; others as a monster like Frankenstein's who turned against his creator, giving a vivid warning against magic and the occult. In this beautiful book, Elie Wiesel has collected many of the legends associated with this enigmatic and elusive figure and retold them as seen through the eyes of a wizened gravedigger who claims to have witnessed as a child the numerous miracles that legend attributes to the Golem. 'I, Reuven, son of Yaakov,' he begins, 'declare under oath that "Yossel the mute," the "Golem made of clay," deserves to be remembered by our people, our persecuted and assassinated, and yet immortal people. We owe it to him to evoke his fate with love and gratitude .... He was a savior, I tell you.' Reuven's Golem is no fool or monster, but a figure of intuition, intelligence, and compassion who may yet return, perhaps in our own generation, to protect the Jews from their enemies. Mark Podwal's highly imaginative drawings recapture the mystery of Gothic Prague, and the elusive Golem is given a shape as the shadow of the Maharal. Thus, two remarkable artists have come together in the creation of a work of rare spiritual beauty which is also a triumph of the bookmaker's art."--Dust jacket.

Characters are made, scripted, and invented, but Creators and Created Beings in Twentieth-Century Latin American Fiction explores what occurs when literary creations become creators themselves. Representing Latin American fiction’s increasingly skeptical gaze in the early- to mid- twentieth century, these literary creators breach the metafictional frame in order to problematize themes including life and death, gender and sexuality, and technology. Drawing upon a diverse range of literary works by canonical and non-canonical authors including Jorge Luis Borges, Horacio Quiroga, Carlos Onetti, Julio Cortázar, María Luisa Bombal, Carlos Fuentes, Roberto Arlt, Juan José Arreola, Eduardo Ladislao Holmberg, Clemente Palma, Adolfo Bioy Casares, and Pedro Angelici, this study excavates critical ontological and epistemological inquiries and delves into questions of identity, power, scientific knowledge, and the transformative nature of fiction.

A city of immense literary mystique, Prague has inspired writers across the centuries with its beauty, cosmopolitanism, and tragic history. Envisioning the ancient city in central Europe as a multilayered text, or palimpsest, that has been constantly revised and rewritten—from the medieval and Renaissance chroniclers who legitimized the city’s foundational origins to the modernists of the early twentieth century who established its reputation as the new capital of the avant-garde—Alfred Thomas argues that Prague has become a paradoxical site of inscription and effacement, of memory and forgetting, a utopian link to the prewar and pre-Holocaust European past and a dystopia of totalitarian amnesia. Considering a wide range of writers, including the city’s most famous son, Franz Kafka, Prague Palimpsest reassesses the work of poets and novelists such as Bohumil Hrabal, Milan Kundera, Gustav Meyrink, Jan Neruda, Vítĕzslav Nezval, and Rainer Maria Rilke and engages with other famous authors who “wrote” Prague, including Guillaume Apollinaire, Ingeborg Bachmann, Albert Camus, Paul Celan, and W. G. Sebald. The result is a comparative, interdisciplinary study that helps to explain why Prague—more than any other major European city—has haunted the cultural and political imagination of the West.

El autor presenta las diversas teorías sobre el Golem en sus contextos históricos e intelectuales y pasa revista a las técnicas para su creación. Este libro contiene el primer tratamiento completo de los materiales textuales referidos a la creación del Golem desde la Antigüedad hasta la época moderna y se presentan las variadas maneras en que fue entendido el Golem en los diferentes sistemas místicos. La idea de que el ser humano es capaz de crear un hombre artificial cumplió el papel de otorgar a los sabios judíos una posición especial, en tanto que dueños de poderes sobrenaturales originados en un profundo conocimiento de la lengua hebrea y de sus poderes mágicos y místicos. El autor presenta las diversas teorías sobre el Golem en sus contextos históricos e intelectuales y pasa revista a las técnicas para su creación, tema que ha sido descuidado por los investigadores. En el libro se investiga también la actitud judía y cristiana ante el Golem durante el Renacimiento, como parte del interés por la naturaleza y el carácter del hombre. El texto se basa en el examen de numerosos manuscritos aún no trabajados, y refuta el difundido supuesto según el cual las características generales de la mística judía ya son bien conocidas.
