A master class from the exhilarating writer Julio Cortázar “I want you to know that I’m not a critic or theorist, which means that in my work I look for solutions as problems arise.” So begins the first of eight classes that the great Argentine writer Julio Cortázar delivered at UC Berkeley in 1980. These “classes” are as much reflections on Cortázar’s own writing career as they are about literature and the historical moment in which he lived. Covering such topics as “the writer’s path” (“while my aesthetic world view made me admire writers like Borges, I was able to open my eyes to the language of street slang, lunfardo…”) and “the fantastic” (“unbeknownst to me, the fantastic had become as acceptable, as possible and real, as the fact of eating soup at eight o’clock in the evening”), Literature Class provides the warm and personal experience of sitting in a room with the great author. As Joaquin Marco stated in El Cultural, “exploring this course is to dive into Cortázar designing his own creations.… Essential for anyone reading or studying Cortázar, cronopio or not!”

Cortázar inédito. El Cortázar que nos quedaba por conocer, este que entra en el aula y sonríe. Berkeley, California, otoño de 1980. En la cima de su carrera y después de años de negativas, Julio Cortázar acepta dar un curso universitario de dos meses en los Estados Unidos. Como cabía esperar, no se tratará de conferencias magistrales sino de una serie de charlas sobre literatura, y sobre todo acerca de su experiencia de escritor y la génesis de sus obras. Las clases tratan gran diversidad de temas: aspectos del cuento fantástico; la musicalidad, el humor, el erotismo y lo lúdico en la literatura; la imaginación y el realismo, la literatura social y las trampas del lenguaje, todos ellos encarnados en lecturas y ejemplos tomados de la cultura universal. Las clases llegan a su punto máximo de interés cuando Cortázar, ya en la edad de los balances, se refiere a su evolución de escritor y analiza su obra: cómo nacieron los cronopios y cuentos insuperables como "La noche boca arriba" o "Continuidad de los parques"; el sentido de Rayuela y su proceso de escritura; el desafío de Libro de Manuel. Quien lea la minuciosa y fiel transcripción de trece horas de grabaciones, al cabo de este encuentro con el Cortázar oral, valorará lo mismo que en sus textos: la soltura y cercanía, la vastedad de lecturas, la honestidad intelectual, la imaginación y el rigor de tamaño profesor. El Cortázar que nos quedaba por conocer, éste que ya entra en el aula y sonríe. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Berkley, California, fall of 1980. At the pinnacle of his career and after turning down multiple offers, Julio Cortázar agrees to teach a two-month college course in the United States. These previously unedited transcripts of thirteen hours of recorded lessons cover a wide variety of subjects—aspects of the Fantastic tale; musicality, humor, eroticism, and playfulness in literature; imagination and realism, social literature and language traps—and bring us face to face to a Cortázar we had yet to meet: the brilliant professor who comes in to the classroom and smiles at us.

How does coding change the way we think about architecture? This question opens up an important research perspective. In this book, Miro Roman and his AI Alice_ch3n81 develop a playful scenario in which they propose coding as the new literacy of information. They convey knowledge in the form of a project model that links the fields of architecture and information through two interwoven narrative strands in an “infinite flow” of real books. Focusing on the intersection of information technology and architectural formulation, the authors create an evolving intellectual reflection on digital architecture and computer science.

This national bestseller is "a significant contribution to discussions of the art of fiction and a necessary challenge to received views about whose stories are told, how they are told and for whom they are intended" (Laila Lalami, The New York Times Book Review). The traditional writing workshop was established with white male writers in mind; what we call craft is informed by their cultural values. In this bold and original examination of elements of writing—including plot, character, conflict, structure, and believability—and aspects of workshop—including the silenced writer and the imagined reader—Matthew Salesses asks questions to invigorate these familiar concepts. He upends Western notions of how a story must progress. How can we rethink craft, and the teaching of it, to better reach writers with diverse backgrounds? How can we invite diverse storytelling traditions into literary spaces? Drawing from examples including One Thousand and One Nights, Curious George, Ursula K. Le Guin's A Wizard of Earthsea, and the Asian American classic No-No Boy, Salesses asks us to reimagine craft and the workshop. In the pages of exercises included here, teachers will find suggestions for building syllabi, grading, and introducing new methods to the classroom; students will find revision and editing guidance, as well as a new lens for reading their work. Salesses shows that we need to interrogate the lack of diversity at the core of published fiction: how we teach and write it. After all, as he reminds us, "When we write fiction, we write the world."

A collection of masterful short stories in Julio Cortazar's sophistocated, powerful and gripping style. 'Julio Cortázar is truly a sorcerer and the best of him is here, in these hilariously fraught and almost eerily affecting stories' Kevin Barry A grieving family home becomes the site of a terrifying invasion. A frustrated love triangle, brought together by a plundered Aztec idol, spills over into brutality. A lodger’s inability to stop vomiting bunny rabbits inspires a personal confession. As dream melds into reality, and reality melts into nightmare, one constant remains throughout these thirty-five stories: the singular brilliance of Julio Cortazar’s imagination. WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY KEVIN BARRY ‘Anyone who doesn't read Cortázar is doomed’ Pablo Neruda

Julio Cortazar's crazed masterpiece, the forbearer of the Latin Boom in the 1960s - published in Vintage Classics for the first time 'Cortazar's masterpiece. This is the first great novel of Spanish America... A powerful anti-novel but, like deeply understood moments in life itself, rich with many kinds of potential meanings and intimations' Times Literary Supplement Dazed by the disappearance of his muse, Argentinian writer Horatio Oliveira wanders the bridges of Paris, the sounds of jazz and the talk of literature, life and art echoing around him. But a chance encounter with a literary idol and his new work – a novel that can be read in random order – sends Horatio’s mind into further confusion. As a return to Buenos Aires beckons, Horatio’s friend and fellow artist, Traveler, awaits his arrival with dread –the lives of these two young writers now ready to play out in an inexhaustible game of indeterminacy.

Three extensively revised essays by Mailloux, an influential proponent of cultural studies, describe his approach in depth. Following are ten essays, nine of them written specifically for this volume, by scholars who offer various perspectives on Mailloux's ideas. Each essayist weighs the strengths and limitations of the cultural studies movement in general and Mailloux's approach in particular.
