This book addresses contemporary discourses on a wide variety of topics related to the ideological and epistemological changes of the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries, and the ways in which they have shaped the Spanish language and cultural manifestations in both Spain and Hispanic America. The majority of the chapters are concerned with ‘otherness’ in its various dimensions; the alien Other – foreign, immigrant, ethnically different, disempowered, female or minor – as well as the Other of different sexual orientation and/or ideology. Following Octavio Paz, otherness is expressed as the attempt to find the lost object of desire, the frustrating endeavour of the androgynous Plato wishing to embrace the other half of Zeus, who in his wrath, tore off from him. Otherness compels human beings to search for the complement from which they were severed. Thus a male joins a female, his other half, the only half that not only fills him but which allows him to return to the unity and reconciliation which is restored in its own perfection, formerly altered by divine will. As a result of this transformation, one can annul the distance that keeps us away from that which, not being our own, turns into a source of anguish. The clashing diversity of all things requires the human predisposition to accept that which is different. Such a predisposition is an expression of epistemological, ethical and political aperture. The disposition to co-exist with the different is imagined in the de-anthropocentricization of the bonds with all living realms. And otherness is, in some way, the reflection of sameness (mismidad). The other is closely related to the self, because the vision of the other implies a reflection about the self; it implies, consciously or not, a relationship with the self. These topics are addressed in this book from an interdisciplinary perspective, encompassing arts, humanities and social sciences.
Eva Perón remains Argentina's best-known and most iconic personality, surpassing even sporting superstars such as Diego Maradona or Lionel Messi, and far outlasting her own husband, President Juan Domingo Perón - himself a remarkable and charismatic political leader without whom she, as an uneducated woman in an elitist and male-dominated society, could not have existed as a political figure. In this book, Jill Hedges tells the story of a remarkable woman whose glamour, charisma, political influence and controversial nature continue to generate huge amounts interest 60 years after her death. From her poverty-stricken upbringing as an illegitimate child in rural Argentina, Perón made her way to the highest echelons of Argentinean society, via a brief acting career and her relationship with Juan. After their political breakthrough, her charitable work and magnetic personality earned her wide public acclaim and there was national mourning following her death from cancer at the age of just 33. Based on new sources and first-hand interviews, the book will seek to explore the personality and experiences of 'Evita' and the contemporary events that influenced her and were in turn influenced by her. As the first substantive biography of Eva Perón in English, this book will be essential reading for anyone interested in modern Argentinean history and the cult of 'Evita'.
Abiayalan Pluriverses: Bridging Indigenous Studies and Hispanic Studies looks for pathways that better connect two often siloed disciplines. This edited collection brings together different disciplinary experiences and perspectives to this objective, weaving together researchers, artists, instructors, and authors who have found ways of bridging Indigenous and Hispanic studies through trans-Indigenous reading methods, intercultural dialogues, and reflections on translation and epistemology. Each chapter brings rich context that bears on some aspect of the Indigenous Americas and its crossroads with Hispanic studies, from Canada to Chile. Such a hemispheric and interdisciplinary approach offers innovative and significant means of challenging the coloniality of Hispanic studies.
La “mediana edad” es un concepto que se utiliza en todos los ámbitos y que presenta numerosos vértices diferentes, aunque generalmente es bastante impreciso, incluso dentro del paradigma psicoanalítico. Este libro trata de determinar su significado preciso a través del reto que representa sentar las bases para el desarrollo de una verdadera metapsicología psicoanalítica de la “mediana edad”, algo que los editores creen que le faltaba al psicoanálisis. Desde este planteamiento, han invitado a catorce psicoanalistas de renombre a que compartieran sus ideas sobre el tema y el resultado de esa labor es Puesta al día sobre la mediana edad: perspectivas psicoanalíticas, que, además de las diversas aportaciones, contiene un estudio introductorio realizado por los editores. Este libro supone un verdadero avance en el desarrollo de una metapsicología específica para la “mediana edad”.

Hélène Seydoux establece brillantemente cómo en la ópera, más que en otras formas artísticas –literatura, teatro o cine–, las mujeres reciben el máximo privilegio al otorgar a las cantantes el mayor espacio lírico. Seydoux analiza las grandes óperas de los grandes compositores y trata de buscar un modelo emblemático femenino que sirva como referente común en el ámbito del bel canto, mientras trata de buscar paralelismos con la época, la sociedad, el momento en el que las óperas fueron creadas intentando establecer hasta que punto estas son reflejo de esas condiciones. Porque la ópera también es una interpretación del mundo. La autora, se aleja de la tesis de la musicología y ayuda al lector a descubrir (o a redescubrir) los placeres de la tragedia lírica, la comedia bufa o el drama jocular.
