Extraterrestres. El fin del mundo. Estados totalitarios. Científicos locos. Y todo eso en nuestro país hace cien años. Este libro supone una invitación al lector a adentrarse en el universo de la ciencia ficción temprana en España. Mundos al descubierto constituye la mayor antología de ciencia ficción de la Edad de Plata jamás publicada: veinticuatro textos, la mayoría de ellos muy poco conocidos, que presentan un completo panorama de las distintas facetas de la ficción científica entre 1898 y 1936. Se reúnen aquí narraciones breves tanto de autores consagrados (Unamuno, Azorín, Gómez de la Serna, Pardo Bazán o Pérez de Ayala, entre otros) como de escritores fuera del canon literario. Esta producción demuestra cómo en España, al igual que en otros países europeos, existió una línea de escritura alejada del costumbrismo que se dedicó, mediante las técnicas de la ciencia ficción, a explorar e interrogar el futuro, la idea de progreso, los avances tecnológicos o las nuevas formas políticas autoritarias. En definitiva, una oportunidad única para sumergirse en historias fascinantes, imaginativas, divertidas y proféticas que un siglo atrás retrataron nuestro presente y anunciaron nuestro futuro.

Los doce relatos reunidos en esta antología logran dar a conocer el pasado de quienes habitaron en los territorios que hoy llamamos Chile entre mediados del siglo XVII y mediados del siglo XIX. Las plumas de Vicente Pérez Rosales, José Victorino Lastarria, Manuel Concha, Enrique del Solar, Lucía Bulnes Pinto y Joaquín Díaz Garcés dejaron una huella, tal vez indeleble, en las mentes de sus lectoras y lectores, que aprendieron y se sorprendieron con estos retratos a veces festivos y otras veces dramáticos. Se realizó la presente selección en base a un criterio fundamental que parece, en el día de hoy, ser de vital importancia –considerando que el tema sobre nuestra identidad nacional se ha puesto en discusión en los últimos años– a saber: la presencia de personajes, mujeres y hombres, de origen africano: esclavos, negros, mulatos o zambos. Así, esta antología responde a una demanda observada tanto en los estudios literarios chilenos, que cumple con el afán de ampliar nuestro canon, como dentro de los estudios en ámbitos de las humanidades y ciencias sociales que abordan cuestiones sobre identidad, memoria nacional y racismo.

El propósito central de este libro es reunir genealogías conceptuales en torno a la crítica de la colonialidad. Su intención no es estabilizar un canon ni enlistar los "términos imprescindibles" del debate, sino notar la impronta del pensamiento crítico sobre la persistencia de "lo colonial" en América Latina, es decir, pensar lo colonial no como acontecimiento, periodo o formación histórica discreta, sino como una condición estructurante del presente. Parte de una necesidad de campo: la elaboración de un léxico crítico, aunque siempre incompleto, con palabras clave que nos permitan mapear el pensamiento que hace una crítica al presente colonial latinoamericano. El volumen opera con al menos tres tipos de conceptos: primero, los que implican un trabajo de desmonte de los elementos que lo componen. Segundo, términos que recuperan debates conectivos que, si bien "tocan" las problemáticas de la colonialidad, pocas veces hacen parte del repertorio familiar y conocido de la retórica descolonial. Y, finalmente, ciertos términos familiares para la crítica a las modalidades coloniales de poder y sus contestaciones, pero que a nuestro juicio necesitaban de un trabajo de actualización o reposicionamiento crítico de su alcance sémico.

Imagine someone who has spent a lifetime listening deeply and attentively to the full range of Scripture's testimony. Stepping back, they now describe what they have seen and heard. What emerges is a theological cathedral, laid out on the great vectors of Scripture and fitted with biblically sourced materials.This is what John Goldingay has done. Well known for his three-volume Old Testament Theology, he has now risen to the challenge of a biblical theology. While taking the New Testament as a portal into the biblical canon, he seeks to preserve the distinct voices of Israel's Scriptures, accepting even its irregular and sinewed pieces as features rather than problems. Goldingay does not search out a thematic core or overarching unity, but allows Scripture's diversity and tensions to remain as manifold witnesses to the ways of God. While many interpreters interrogate Scripture under the harsh lights of late-modern questions, Goldingay engages in a dialogue keen on letting Scripture speak to us in its own voice. Throughout he asks, "What understanding of God and the world and life emerges from these two testaments?"Goldingay's Biblical Theology is a landmark achievement—hermeneutically dexterous, biblically expansive, and nourishing to mind, soul and proclamation.

Ursula Owen has been a significant figure in the worlds of literature and free expression since the 1970s. A founding director of Virago Press in 1974, later becoming Joint Managing Director, she worked with a committed teams as the company rapidly developed an international reputation, rediscovering and repositioning women writers and, over two decades, transforming both the literary canon and the contemporary publishing world. During the 1990s, Owen became a director of the Paul Hamlyn Fund, Cultural Policy Advisor to the Labour Party and Chief Executive of Index on Censorship. Yet behind these and other signal achievements lies the story of a refugee, a child who fled the Nazis, was educated at Putney High School, went up to Oxford, trained as a researcher in social services, travelled extensively, marrying, becoming a mother, and eventually separating. In this frank and compelling memoir, we discover an extraordinary life where culture prevails against the tumultuous conflicts of the twentieth-century, as well as the twenty-first.

El teatrólogo, ensayista, gestor cultural y editor Omar Valiño (Santa Clara, 1968) ejerce la crítica teatral —oficio en el que se reconoce— desde un profundo compromiso con el papel insobornable de esta. Su discursar como espectador especializado a lo largo de treinta años —con acercamientos a veces acérrimos, otras experimentales, mas siempre nítidos— ha ido definiendo su voz: sólida, precisa, nunca parcializada. Sin prodigarse y seleccionando oportunamente los materiales que diseccionará, ha desplegado su mapa de análisis en una mezcla entre complicidad y honradez donde entrelaza el alcance cívico de las poéticas que aborda con la concreción escénica de las mismas. Eso le ha permitido ir convirtiéndose en lo que es hoy: un crítico e investigador teatral de referencia en el panorama nacional e iberoamericano. En sus análisis, ha dejado constancia de lo acontecido en los escenarios cubanos, incluso los menos paradigmáticos, lo cual evidencia sus zonas de interés: aquellas que van a los bordes, a esas «escenas fuera del canon», convencido de que, cuando pasa el momento efímero de la puesta en escena, subsiste la crítica teatral. Y queda, entonces, La memoria imborrable.

Winner of the EBRD Literature Prize 2019 On New Years' Eve 1938, the writer Abdulla Qodiriy is taken from his home by the Soviet secret police and thrown into a Tashkent prison. There, to distract himself from the physical and psychological torment of beatings and mindless interrogations, he attempts to mentally reconstruct the novel he was writing at the time of his arrest – based on the tragic life of the Uzbek poet-queen Oyhon, married to three khans in succession, and living as Abdulla now does, with the threat of execution hanging over her. As he gets to know his cellmates, Abdulla discovers that the Great Game of Oyhon's time, when English and Russian spies infiltrated the courts of Central Asia, has echoes in the 1930s present, but as his identification with his protagonist increases and past and present overlap it seems that Abdulla's inability to tell fact from fiction will be his undoing. The Devils' Dance brings to life the extraordinary culture of 19th century Turkestan, a world of lavish poetry recitals, brutal polo matches, and a cosmopolitan and culturally diverse Islam rarely described in western literature. Hamid Ismailov's virtuosic prose recreates this multilingual milieu in a digressive, intricately structured novel, dense with allusion, studded with quotes and sayings, and threaded through with modern and classical poetry. With this poignant, loving resurrection of both a culture and a literary canon brutally suppressed by a dictatorship which continues today, Ismailov demonstrates yet again his masterful marriage of contemporary international fiction and the Central Asian literary traditions, and his deserved position in the pantheon of both.

The Odyssey - Homer - This is Alexander Pope's translation of The Odyssey; one of the oldest existing works of literature, and one of two epic poems attributed to Homer. It follows Odysseus and his ten-year journey home after the Trojan War. Confronted by natural and supernatural threats - shipwrecks, battles, monsters and the implacable enmity of the sea-god Poseidon - Odysseus must test his bravery and native cunning to the full if he is to reach his homeland safely. But even there, in his absence he has been assumed dead and a group of unruly suitors are competing for his wife's (Penelope) hand in marriage. The Odyssey is one of two major ancient Greek epic poems attributed to Homer. It is one of the oldest extant works of literature still widely read by modern audiences. As with the Iliad, the poem is divided into 24 books. It follows the Greek hero Odysseus, king of Ithaca, and his journey home after the Trojan War. After the war itself, which lasted ten years, his journey lasted for ten additional years, during which time he encountered many perils and all his crew mates were killed. In his absence, Odysseus was assumed dead, and his wife Penelope and son Telemachus had to contend with a group of unruly suitors who were competing for Penelope's hand in marriage. The Odyssey was originally composed in Homeric Greek in around the 8th or 7th century BCE and, by the mid-6th century BCE, had become part of the Greek literary canon. In antiquity, Homer's authorship of the poem was not questioned, but contemporary scholarship predominantly assumes that the Iliad and the Odyssey were composed independently, and the stories themselves formed as part of a long oral tradition. Given widespread illiteracy, the poem was performed by an aoidos or rhapsode, and more likely to be heard than read. Crucial themes in the poem include the ideas of nostos, wandering, xenia ("guest-friendship"), testing, and omens. Scholars still reflect on the narrative significance of certain groups in the poem, such as women and slaves, who have a more prominent role in the epic than in many other works of ancient literature. This focus is especially remarkable when considered beside the Iliad, which centres the exploits of soldiers and kings during the Trojan War. The Odyssey is regarded as one of the most significant works of the Western canon. The first English translation of the Odyssey was in the 16th century. Adaptations and re-imaginings continue to be produced across a wide variety of mediums. In 2018, when BBC Culture polled experts around the world to find literature's most enduring narrative, the Odyssey topped the list.
