JULIE SPEED : PAINTINGS, CONSTRUCTIONS, WORKS ON PAPER
Εκδότης: UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS PRESS Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0883-0002
Julie Speed's meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail bring to mind the work of painters from the fifteenth - and sixteenth - century Renaissance. Unlike those artists, however, Speed is inspired by an almost limitless number of easily available sources and is unencumbered by the sexual and societal restrictions of past centuries, which gives her the freedom to paint what she wants and the way she wants. [. . .] To bring Speed's mysterious and compelling work to a wider audience, this beautifully illustrated volume presents one hu... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

(P/B) THUNDER SHAMAN
MAKING HISTORY WITH MAPUCHE SPIRITS IN CHILE AND PATAGONIA
Εκδότης: UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS PRESS Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0883-0090
As a "wild," drumming thunder shaman, a warrior mounted on her spirit horse, Francisca Kolipi's spirit traveled to other historical times and places, gaining the power and knowledge to conduct spiritual warfare against her community's enemies, including forestry companies and settlers. As a "civilized" shaman, Francisca narrated the Mapuche people's attachment to their local sacred landscapes, which are themselves imbued with shamanic power, and constructed nonlinear histories of intra- and interethnic relations that created a moral order ...

(P/B) TWENTIETH-CENTURY LATIN AMERICAN POETRY
A BILINGUAL ANTHOLOGY
Εκδότης: UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS PRESS Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0883-0089
Latin Americans have written some of the world's finest poetry in the twentieth century, as the Nobel Prizes awarded to Gabriela Mistral, Pablo Neruda, and Octavio Paz attest. Yet this rich literary production has never been gathered into a single volume that attempts to represent the full range and the most important writers-until now. Here, under one cover, are the major poets and their major works, which appear both in the original language (Spanish or Portuguese) and in excellent English translations. The poems selected include the mos... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

(H/B) DANGEROUS GIFTS
GENDER AND EXCHANGE IN ANCIENT GREECE
Εκδότης: UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS PRESS Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0883-0083 Deianeira sends her husband Herakles a poisoned robe. Eriphyle trades the life of her husband Amphiaraos for a golden necklace. Atreus’s wife Aerope gives away the token of his sovereignty, a lamb with a golden fleece, to his brother Thyestes, who has seduced her. Gifts and exchanges always involve a certain risk in any culture, but in the ancient Greek imagination, women and gifts appear to be a particularly deadly combination. This book explores the role of gender in exchange as represented in ancient Greek culture, including Homeric epi... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

(P/B) A ROUTE 66 COMPANION
Εκδότης: UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS PRESS Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0883-0080
Even before there was a road, there was a route. Buffalo trails, Indian paths, the old Santa Fe trace - all led across the Great Plains and the western mountains to the golden oasis of California. America's insatiable westering urge culminated in Route 66, the highway that ran from Chicago to Los Angeles. Opened in 1926, Route 66 became the quintessential American road. It offered the chance for freedom and a better life, whether you were down-and-out Okies fleeing the Dust Bowl in the 1930s or cool guys cruising in a Corvette in the 1960s...
