Una apasionante novela histórica ambientada en la época virreinal, que narra la saga familiar de José de la Borda, el constructor de la emblemática iglesia de Santa Prisca en Taxco. Con una minuciosa investigación, Jacques Paire reconstruye la vida de este singular personaje, conocido como el Fénix de los mineros, y traza una saga familiar en la que recrea la sociedad de su tiempo, A través de una narrativa fluida, el autor da cuenta de las costumbres y la mentalidad de la época, así como las tensiones entre la sensualidad y la religión, en una de las etapas más desconocidas, pero a la vez fascinantes de nuestra historia. Durante el siglo XVIII, en plena era virreinal, el francés José de la Borda llega a las minas de Real de Taxco con el sueño de amasar una gran fortuna explotando las minas abandonadas de la región. Todo da un giro cuando su esposa muere durante el parto de su primogénito y él se sume enun luto profundo, del cual sale adelante al iniciar el ambicioso proyecto de construir la iglesia de Santa Prisca, en Taxco, una de las joyas de la arquitectura barroca mexicana.

What’s it like to take two months away from day-to-day life to trek the length of Spain while dealing with language barriers, crippling heat and injuries, and a spouse with motivations entirely different from your own? Leaving busy city lives behind, pastoral carer Cici Edwards-Jensen and corporate consultant Mike Jensen embark on the Via de la Plata in a quest for insights and adventure – and soon discover that walking the Camino is a very different experience from everything they’ve seen in the books and films that inspired them. This unflinchingly honest account of their journey exposes their unique frailties but also their universal quest: the search for meaning. Happiness Is That Way is for walkers, adventurers and dreamers curious about a life-changing pilgrimage.

"Moving Otherwise examines how contemporary dance practices in Buenos Aires, Argentina enacted politics within climates of political and economic violence from the late 1960s to the present. From the repression of military dictatorships to the precarity of economic crises, contemporary dancers and audiences consistently responded to and reimagined the everyday choreographies that have accompanied Argentina's volatile political history. The central concept, "moving otherwise," names how concert dance - and its offstage practices and consumption - offer alternatives to, and sometimes critique, the patterns of movement and bodily comportment that shape everyday life in contexts marked by violence. Drawing on archival research, interviews, and the author's embodied experiences as a collaborator and performer, the book analyzes a wide range of practices including concert works, community dance initiatives, and the everyday labor that animates dance. It demonstrates how these diverse practices represent, resist, and remember violence and engender social mobilization on and off the theatrical stage. As the first book length critical study of Argentine contemporary dance, it introduces a breadth of choreographers to an English speaking audience, including Ana Kamien, Susana Zimmermann, Estela Maris, Alejandro Cervera, Renate Schottelius, Susana Tambutti, Silvia Hodgers, and Silvia Vladimivsky. It considers previously undocumented aspects of Argentine dance history, including crossings between contemporary dancers and 1970s leftist political militancy, Argentine dance labor movements, political protest, and the prominence of tango themes in contemporary dance works that address the memory of political violence"--

An Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool University Press website and the OAPEN library as part of the Opening the Future project with COPIM. Representations of China in Latin American Literature (1987-2016) analyses contemporary Latin American novels in which China is the main theme. Using ‘China’ as a multidimensional term, it explores how the novels both highlight and undermine assumptions about China that have shaped Latin America’s understanding of ‘China’ and shows ‘China’ to be a kind of literary/imaginary ‘third’ term which reframes Latin American discourses of alterity. On one level, it argues that these texts play with the way that ‘China’ stands in as a wandering signifier and as a metonym for Asia, a gesture that essentialises it as an unchanging other. On another level, it argues that the novels’ employment of ‘China’ resists essentialist constructions of identity. ‘China’ is thus shown to be serving as a concept which allows for criticism of the construction of fetishized otherness and of the exclusion inherent in essentialist discourses of identity. The book presents and analyses the depiction of an imaginary of China which is arguably performative, but which discloses the tropes and themes which may be both established and subverted, in the novels. Chapter One examines the way in which ‘China’ is represented and constructed in Latin American novels where this country is a setting for their stories. The novels studied in Chapter Two are linked to the presence of Chinese communities in Latin America. The final chapter examines novels whose main theme is travel to contemporary China. Ultimately, in the novels studied in this book ‘China’ serves as a concept through which essentialist notions of identity are critiqued.

Acompañada de Aristóteles, Goethe, Victor Hugo, Darwin, Jane Austen y tantos otros escritores, pintores o aventureros, la autora nos invita a realizar una travesía por la costa vasca. Un viaje sentimental a los lugares de la adolescencia se transforma en una exploración de los viejos caminos costeros, un recorrido por la historia humana y geológica, grabada de un modo particularmente revelador en los paisajes y las piedras de la costa, el primigenio umbral donde se encuentran dos mundos. Un texto inspirador que nos propone observar la naturaleza y deleitarnos en ella, contemplar los matices de la vida en estado puro y sentir su hondo latido. "Este recorrido por la costa vasca es en realidad una excusa para regalarnos montones de historias, anécdotas y curiosidades. Un viaje delicioso de la mano de una nómada con la mochila cargada de sensibilidad, cultura e inteligencia. Un viaje cautivador coleccionando conchas, piedras y palabras en el que aparecen Jack London, el surf y la gran ola Belharra de Biarritz; los caballitos de mar, Auden, la evolución del traje de baño, Moby Dick, la petromanía, los plesiosaurios de Mary Anning, el recuerdo del baño perfecto, desnuda en un lago de Friburgo, o el del primer beso, bajo la advocación de De aquí a la eternidad. Precioso". Jacinto Antón, El País "Belmonte convierte la visita a los lugares de su adolescencia en un recorrido humano y geológico por la costa vasca". La Vanguardia "Hay algo transparente y luminoso en el libro de Belmonte. Seguramente es su alma. La felicidad que la embarga en todo momento es la euforia de la tierra madre. Este es un libro escandalosamente feliz". Félix de Azúa, El País "Una celebración de la cultura, al estilo de los escritores románticos pero también un intento de impregnarse con la naturaleza considerada como un prodigio y recordar con Thoreau que lo más próximo puede ser extraordinario". El Periódico "Belmonte recorre, con la lucidez que distinguió su anterior libro, la travesía de Bayona a Bilbao, una fascinante geografía que traza en poco más de doscientas páginas. Con lecturas. Una educación sentimental a través del más rotundo de los sentidos: mirar y ver; y contarlo. Y cómo lo cuenta". Fernando R. Lafuente, ABC "El modo en que narra Belmonte es interesantísimo porque consigue atrapar nuestra atención por el dinamismo de su prosa, la riqueza de su contenido y la virtud de plasmar en papel un pensamiento interior que se proyecta hacia fuera por el contexto, ese exterior que es el verdadero actor principal de la trama". Jordi Corominas, Leer "Se nota que está escrito en el caminar, con el pulsómetro en el antebrazo y con la franciscana humildad de ir a pie, reconociendo, desde la pausada experiencia del peregrino, la antigüedad, belleza y singularidad de nuestra geografía". Miguel Zugaza, El Correo Español "La autora nos invita a acompañarla en un viaje. Y consigue transmitir esa sensación de ser cómplices de un camino, que le hace pensar en su propia vida. Enlaza con la filosofía". Isabel Coixet
