Twentieth-century war is a unique cultural phenomenon and the last two decades have seen significant advances in our ability to conceptualize and understand the past and the character of modern technological warfare. At the forefront of these developments has been the re-appraisal of the human body in conflict, from the ethics of digging up First World War bodies for television programmes to the contentious political issues surrounding the reburial of Spanish Civil War victims, the relationships between the war body and material culture (e.g. clothing, and prostheses), ethnicity and identity in body treatment, and the role of the ‘body as bomb’ in Iraq, Afghanistan and beyond. Focused on material culture, Bodies in Conflict revitalizes investigations into the physical and symbolic worlds of modern conflict and that have defined us as subjects through memory, imagination, culture and technology. The chapters in this book present an interdisciplinary approach which draws upon, but does not privilege archaeology, anthropology, military and cultural history, art history, cultural geography, and museum and heritage studies. The complexity of modern conflict demands a coherent, integrated, and sensitized hybrid approach which calls on different disciplines where they overlap in a shared common terrain - that of the materiality of conflict and its aftermath in relation to the human body. Bodies in Conflict brings together the diverse interests and expertise of a host of disciplines to create a new intellectual engagement with our corporeal nature in times of conflict.

Historians have only recently established the scale of the violence carried out by the supporters of General Franco during and after the Spanish Civil War of 1936-1939. An estimated 88,000 unidentified victims of Francoist violence remain to be exhumed from mass graves and given a dignified burial, and for decades, the history of these victims has also been buried. This volume brings together a range of Spanish and British specialists who offer an original and challenging overview of this violence. Contributors not only examine the mass killings and incarcerations, but also carefully consider how the repression carried out in the government zone during the Civil War - long misrepresented in Francoist accounts - seeped into everyday life. A final section explores ways of facing Spain’s recent violent past.

This collection of articles, contributed by both experienced and novice researchers, addresses core issues in three different domains of Hispanic Linguistics: theoretical linguistics, language acquisition and language contact. Together these papers provide an overview of how the analysis of Spanish contributes to current formal and experimental linguistics, while on an individual level offering fine-grained analyses and innovative proposals covering a wide range of areas such as semantics and pragmatics, syntax, morphology, phonology, prosody, dialectal variation, first, second and bilingual language acquisition, as well as sociolinguistics. The volume will be a resource for graduate students, academics and researchers in theoretical, experimental and descriptive linguistics in general and Hispanic Linguistics in particular.The selection of chapters included in this volume were presented at the 17th Hispanic Linguistics Symposium hosted in October 2013 by the Language Acquisition Research Laboratory at the University of Ottawa in Ottawa, Canada.

The fear of violent crime dominates Guatemala City. In the midst of unprecedented levels of postwar violence, Guatemalans struggle to fathom the myriad forces that have made life in this city so deeply insecure. Born out of histories of state terror, migration, and US deportation, maras (transnational gangs) have become the face of this new era of violence. They are brutal organizations engaged in extortion, contract killings, and the drug trade, and yet they have also become essential to the emergence of a certain kind of social order. Drawing on years of fieldwork inside prisons, police precincts, and gang-dominated neighborhoods, Anthony W. Fontes demonstrates how gang violence has become indissoluble from contemporary social imaginaries and how these gangs provide cover for a host of other criminal actors. Ethnographically rich and unflinchingly critical, Mortal Doubt illuminates the maras’ role in making and mooring collective terror in Guatemala City while tracing the ties that bind this violence to those residing in far safer environs.

This book examines the contested representations of those murdered during the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s in two small rural communities as they undergo the experience of exhumation, identification, and reburial from nearby mass graves. Based on interviews with relatives of the dead, community members and forensic archaeologists, it pays close attention to the role of excavated objects and images in breaking the pact of silence that surrounded the memory of these painful events for decades afterward. It also assesses the significance of archaeological and forensic practices in changing relationships between the living and dead. The exposure of graves has opened up a discursive space in Spanish society for multiple representations to be made of the war dead and of Spain’s traumatic past.

20.000 palabras agrupadas por tema; con gramática y phrase book Autor: Diego Luzuriaga (1959), traductor y docente Egresado del Instituto Superior en Lenguas Vivas; Buenos Aires, Argentina PRESENTACIÓN DE LA OBRA Para alguien de mi generación, los modos de publicación digital inauguran un nuevo paradigma. Los medios técnicos disponibles hoy en día me han permitido plasmar la Guía de Inglés según mi idea original. También es gracias a Internet que puedo acercarte esta obra de una manera asequible y ágil. Durante años trabajé en este volumen bilingüe con pasión por ambos idiomas y buscando facilitar un dominio cabal del inglés a todo estudiante de habla hispana, en particular a quienes carecen de recursos económicos para acceder a esta lengua internacional. Las nuevas técnicas de traducción automática nos sorprenden más y más. Para el individuo en nuestro mundo globalizado, sin embargo, una cosa es valerse de traducciones y otra muy distinta es poder generar el propio discurso en lengua extranjera e interpretar los contenidos más diversos de una manera personal y autónoma. He ahí la principal razón de ser de esta Guía. También es inigualable poder apreciar la belleza de la literatura en inglés, los matices en sus giros, los múltiples sentidos, las complejidades, el humor, las sonoridades y las sutilezas de esta lengua inagotable. La ortografía de inglés elegida en esta obra ha sido la británica, por tratarse de la variedad original. Cuando existen variantes estadounidenses para ciertas palabras, las mismas se indican en todos los casos. He procurado dar con equivalentes en castellano que estuviesen exentos de regionalismos, lo cual no siempre resulta sencillo. Espero que vayas a disfrutar de la Guía de Inglés tanto como yo escribiéndola. Fueron años elaborando este material, con la intención de brindarte cuanto me fuese posible y que te alcance hasta el más avanzado nivel de estudios. La Guía de Inglés potenciará tus conocimientos de todas las maneras que imagines y sus traducciones acaso aporten nuevo léxico a tu español. Todo el texto y la diagramación de la obra son de mi autoría. Sus imágenes figuran como free clip art en Internet y en tal condición fueron descargadas de la red. El precio de venta es menor que mi arancel por una lección de inglés durante una hora. Las páginas de muestra en Google Books te permitirán evaluar la utilidad de esta Guía. Este libro condensa conocimientos que son fruto de 30 años enseñando inglés tanto a escolares como a profesionales y empresarios. ¡Confío en que te resultará una transacción ventajosa! Haz que el trato también sea justo para mí, adquiriéndola de quien aquí suscribe Tu aliado, el autor… Diego Luzuriaga PD: Si quieres saber en qué ando ahora, ven a visitar mi sitio AMOIDIOMA en facebook.

Narrating Narcos presents a probing examination of the prominent role of narcotics trafficking in contemporary Latin American cultural production. In her study, Gabriela Polit Due–as juxtaposes two infamous narco regions, Culiacan, Mexico, and Medellin, Colombia, to demonstrate the powerful forces of violence, corruption, and avarice and their influence over locally based cultural texts. Polit Due–as provides a theoretical basis for her methods, citing the work of Walter Benjamin, Pierre Bourdieu, and other cultural analysts. She supplements this with extensive ethnographic fieldwork, interviewing artists and writers, their confidants, relatives, and others, and documents their responses to the portrayal of narco culture. Polit Due–as offers close readings of the characters, language, and milieu of popular works of literature and the visual arts and relates their ethical and thematic undercurrents to real life experiences. In both regions, there are few individuals who have not been personally affected by the narcotics trade. Each region has witnessed corrupt state, police, and paramilitary actors in league with drug capos. Both have a legacy of murder. Polit Due–as documents how narco culture developed at different times historically in the two regions. In Mexico, drugs have been cultivated and trafficked for over a century, while in Colombia the cocaine trade is a relatively recent development. In Culiacan, characters in narco narratives are often modeled after the serrano (highlander), a romanticized historic figure and sometime thief who nobly defied a corrupt state and its laws. In Medellin, the oft-portrayed sicario (assassin) is a recent creation, an individual recruited by drug lords from poverty stricken shantytowns who would have little economic opportunity otherwise. As Polit Due–as shows, each character occupies a different place in the psyche of the local populace. Narrating Narcos offers a unique melding of archival and ground-level research combined with textual analysis. Here, the relationship of writer, subject, and audience becomes clearly evident, and our understanding of the cultural bonds of Latin American drug trafficking is greatly enhanced. As such, this book will be an important resource for students and scholars of Latin American literature, history, culture, and contemporary issues.
