Book Synopsis Equívocos / Misconceptions. Early 21st Century Cuban Poets. Bilingual Anthology by : Yoandy Cabrera
Download or read book Equívocos / Misconceptions. Early 21st Century Cuban Poets. Bilingual Anthology written by Yoandy Cabrera. This book was released on 2021-11-24. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Equívocos / Misconceptions is a spirited adventure, an energizing take on today’s transgressions. The project refuses a conventional reliance on generations as a method for organizing anthologies of Cuban poetry. Instead, editor Yoandy Cabrera cuts across a moment in the twenty-first century, asking what priorities writers themselves have articulated. Bilingual editorial notes contextualize a wide range of themes they explore. The poems themselves – and their translations—are by turns confiding, howling, sensual, scathing, indirect, explicit, contemplative, fierce.” Kristin Dykstra, Saint Michael’s College “Si muchas de las antologías de poesía cubana publicadas en la década del 90 y comienzos de los años 2000 muestran la irrupción de nuevos discursos y formas estéticas, esta es una antología para los poetas “desubicados”, un gesto crítico que pretende corregir el error de pensar la poesía a partir del concepto de generación, cuando lo más importante son las poéticas de los autores escogidos (geómetras del desastre, no-sujetos, por ejemplo). La selección de 21 poetas realizada por Yoandy Cabrera propone observar, como en una vista aérea, las redes afectivas y estéticas que los autores establecen con sus lectores desde un afuera que es también doble: del territorio nacional y de las propias lecturas realizadas hasta el momento por la crítica. Además, se trata de una iniciativa importante como proyecto formador de nuevos traductores de la poesía cubana al inglés, a partir del trabajo realizado por Cabrera junto a sus estudiantes.” Idalia Morejón, Universidade de São Paulo Poets: Magali Alabau, Jorge Luis Arcos, Néstor Díaz de Villegas, om ulloa, René Rubí Cordoví, Ernesto Hernández Busto, Dolan Mor, Janet Batet, Norge Espinosa Mendoza, Aleisa Ribalta Guzmán, Milena Rodríguez Gutiérrez, Joaquín Badajoz, Félix Hangelini, Dashel Hernández Guirado, Leonardo Sarría, Kelly Martínez-Grandal, Jamila Medina Ríos, Legna Rodríguez Iglesias, Sergio García Zamora, Gelsys M.

Book Synopsis Medicine and Religion in Enlightenment Europe by : Andrew Cunningham
Download or read book Medicine and Religion in Enlightenment Europe written by Andrew Cunningham. This book was released on 2017-03-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Enlightenment period, here understood as covering the years 1650 to 1789, is usually considered to be a period when religion was obliged to give way to rationality. With respect to medicine this means that the religious elements in the treatment and interpretation of diseases to all intents and purposes disappeared. However, there are growing indications in recent scholarship that this may well be an overstatement. Indeed it appears that religion retained many of its customary relations with medicine. This volume explores how far, and the ways in which, this was still the case. It looks at this multi-faceted relationship with respect to among others: medical care and death in hospitals, religious vocation and nursing, chemical medicine and religion, the clergy and medicine, the continued significance of popular medicine, faith healing, dissection and religion, and religious dissent and medical innovation. Within these significant areas the volume provides a European perspective which will make it possible to draw comparisons and determine differences.
