Lo femenino contiene el misterio de la creación. Esta verdad simple y primordial a menudo pasa desapercibida. Sin embargo, en estos tiempos de crisis global, que a su vez portan las semillas de una transformación global, es necesario que redespertemos al poder espiritual y al potencial de lo femenino. Las cualidades femeninas forman parte tanto del hombre como de la mujer y nos empujan hacia las profundidades de nuestro ser, hasta los misterios del alma, cuya sabiduría se denomina Sofía. Sin lo femenino nada nuevo puede nacer, nada nuevo puede llegar a la existencia; quedaríamos atrapados en las imágenes materialistas de la vida que están contaminando nuestro planeta y profanando nuestras almas. Tenemos que volver al centro de nuestro ser, al lugar donde lo sagrado se manifiesta en la existencia. Y la feminidad mística contiene la clave para poder llevar a cabo esta labor de redención y de transformación. En las últimas dos décadas Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee ha impartido enseñanzas sobre lo femenino y el anima mundi, el Alma del Mundo, que por primera vez han sido recopiladas en este libro.

The idea of dedicating a Festschrift to honor Professor Frédéric Manns on the happy occasion of his 70th birthday came to mind in the autumn of 2011 and work on this project had been continuing ever since. Felicitously achieving this goal, the Faculty of Biblical Sciences and Archaeology (Studium Biblicum Franciscanum) and the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land present this volume to Father Manns with gratitude for his profound scholarship and a lifetime service in the Holy Land. Perusing through Father Manns’ writings, it is easy to see a prominent and distinctive place devoted to the Gospel of John. It seemed therefore suitable to focus on this subject in the Festschrift honoring him: the title, Rediscovering John, relates to Manns’ significant contribution towards the better understanding of the Fourth Gospel. The volume comprises 21 studies authored by renowned scholars from various parts of the world, from different institutions and denominations. While the first half of the studies examines general issues (history of interpretation, textual transmission, intertextuality, theological themes, archaeology), the second half treats literary, narrative and exegetical approaches to particular texts of the Fourth Gospel. We augur that this rich collection will help to stimulate further discussion and reflection on the Gospel of John, as well as constitute an incentive to an already distinguished scholar to continue writing challenging and thought-provoking essays and books.

This book presents the first English introduction to the broad history of the Gothic mode in Spain. It focuses on key literary periods, such as Romanticism, the fin-de-siècle, spiritualist writings of the early-twentieth century, and the cinematic and literary booms of the 1970s and 2000s. With illustrative case studies, Aldana Reyes demonstrates how the Gothic mode has been a permanent yet ever-shifting fixture of the literary and cinematic landscape of Spain since the late-eighteenth century. He proposes that writers and filmmakers alike welcomed the Gothic as a liberating and transgressive artistic language.

As one of the first countries to implement a neoliberal state apparatus, Mexico serves as a prime example of the effects of neoliberal structural economic reform on our sensibility. Irgmard Emmelhainz argues that, in addition to functioning as a form of politico-economic organization, neoliberalism creates particular ways of seeing and inhabiting the world. It reconfigures common sense, justifying destruction and dispossession in the name of development and promising to solve economic precarity with self-help and permanent education. Pragmatism reigns, yet in always aiming to maximize individual benefit and profit, such common sense fuels a culture of violence and erodes the distinction between life and death. Moreover, since 2018, with the election of a new Mexican president, neoliberalism has undergone what Emmelhainz calls "post-neoliberal conversion," intensifying extractavism and ushering in a novel form of moral, political, and intellectual hegemony rooted in class tensions and populism. Integrating theory with history and lived reality with art, film, and literary criticism, The Tyranny of Common Sense will appeal to academics and readers interested in the effects of neoliberalism and, now, post-neoliberalism in Mexico from a broader, global perspective. Originally published in Spanish in 2016 as La tiranía del sentido común: La reconversión neoliberal de México, the English edition has been thoroughly revised and expanded to encompass a critical vision of the current regime.

A trilogia – O Mistério dos Senhores de Vênus: Os Deuses Que Vieram do Céu; A Pluralidade dos Mundos Habitados e a Evolução do Homem; Deuses, Venusianos e Capelinos é o resultado de vários anos de pesquisa de Jorge da Silva Bessa que se consagra como profundo estudioso das mitologias e crenças religiosas que marcaram a história da humanidade. Nas quase 500 páginas desta trilogia o autor procura mostrar que, ao longo de nossa história, sempre estivemos amparados e sendo instruídos por elevadíssimas consciências espirituais, conhecidas como deuses, “jardineiros siderais”, “anjos do Senhor” e extraterrestres, entre outras denominações, no seio de quasetodasasgrandescivilizaçõesdopassado. Os deuses do passado, hoje, estão cada vez mais presentes, pois jamais deixaram a humanidade à sua própria sorte. Eles são os mesmos sábios espíritos de outrora, encarregados da execução direta da evolução planetária, que agora intervêm, de forma mais direta para promover essa mudança que alguns chamam Nova Era,FimdoMundoouApocalipse.

Marosa di Giorgio has one of the most distinct and recognizable voices in Latin American poetry. Her surreal and fable-like prose poems invite comparison to Franz Kafka, Julio Cortázar, or even contemporary American poets Russell Edson and Charles Simic. But di Giorgio's voice, imagery, and themes—childhood, the Uruguayan countryside, a perception of the sacred—are her own. Previously written off as "the mad woman of Uruguayan letters," di Giorgio's reputation has blossomed in recent years. Translator Adam Giannelli's careful selection of poems spans the enormous output of di Giorgio's career to help further introduce English-language readers to this vibrant and original voice. Marosa di Giorgio was born in Salto, Uruguay, in 1932. Her first book Poemas was published in 1953. Also a theater actress, she moved to Montevideo in 1978, where she lived until her death in 2004.

"De la higuera aprended la parábola; cuando ya sus ramas se enternecen sabed que el verano está cerca" (Mt. 24:32-33). Cuando escuchamos o leemos estas palabras de Jesucristo nuestra mente evoca las imágenes del establecimiento del estado judío en 1948 y la reconquista de Jerusalén en 1967. Sin embargo, la parábola de la higuera que tanto ha inquietado a los exegetas de todos los tiempos, quería decirnos mucho más que aquellos dos importantes acontecimientos en la historia moderna de Israel. Jesucristo se estaba refiriendo a una generación específica de israelitas que se levantaría en el estado judío ya restaurado entre las naciones en el fin de esta era, y cuyo escenario seria la ciudad santa ya reconquistada. Esa generación específica de israelitas es de la que se dijo "no pasaría" y de la cual ya nos habían hablado los antiguos profetas de la biblia. ¿Cuándo comenzara la gran tribulación? ¿Quién es la mujer vestida del sol de Apocalipsis 12? Entérese de esta novedosa e interesante tesis escatológica que arroja más luz sobre el cuadro profético.

La tercera edad de oro de la ficción televisiva ha favorecido la proliferación de series de gran despliegue técnico y a la vez de narrativas que describen la intimidad y la rutina cotidiana de los protagonistas. Son obras que nos presentan personajes alejados de la heroicidad, representados a menudo dentro del espacio doméstico, que ha pasado a ser un lugar clave para la descripción y evolución de los personajes. Partiendo de la premisa que la ficción televisiva desarrolla una clara función de referencia y legitimación social, creando estereotipos y modelos en los que los espectadores se identifican, este libro analiza veinte de las series contemporáneas más populares, reflexionando sobre el rol paternal y maternal de sus protagonistas. En algunas series se encuentran ejemplos que se alejan de la descripción de la familia patriarcal convencional. Destacamos así la pluralidad de discursos que se están ofreciendo, aunque también observamos que muchas de ellas, a pesar de un envoltorio transgresor, siguen reproduciendo roles que alimentan los valores familiares tradicionales.
