Estamos en un Londres apagado y frío. Es el invierno de 1944, y suena el «chirrido de los autobuses, el rumor del metro, el temblor de los adoquines bajo los pies». Red, una estudiante de Zoología, se enamora de Mara Daniels, su compañera de disección en la facultad, una chica casada, elegante y despreocupada. Pronto las dos mujeres se vuelven inseparables, presas de una pasión física absoluta, pero también de una ansiedad y unos juegos enrevesados que las conducirán a un punto de no retorno. Publicada por primera vez en 1962, Amor de invierno es la historia de un amor que intenta florecer bajo el zumbido sordo de las bombas. Una indagación en el deseo y la obsesión, pero también en los sentimientos más oscuros y ambivalentes y en la identidad moldeada por la moral opresiva de la época. Esta novela de Han Suyin —«probablemente lo mejor que ha escrito nunca», según The Daily Telegraph— es su obra más inesperada y conmovedora. Una joya secreta de la literatura del siglo XX. «Un mundo propio de felicidad, frustraciones y mentiras. Una obra conmovedora y amarga sobre un amor fuera del canon». —Times Literary Supplement «Una obra extraordinaria. Una novelette únicamente por su extensión». —Anthony Quinton «La obra más excepcional de Han Suyin. Su mejor novela». —Alison Hennegan «Un libro desoladoramente cinematográfico, de jardines descuidados y cafeterías llenas de humo. Para lectores de Sally Rooney o E. M. Forster; o para incondicionales de la película Carol de Todd Haynes». —Molly Young,The New York Times

Esta compilación reúne en catorce ensayos una cartografía de los intereses y cuestionamientos de pensadoras que investigan y reflexionan desde las humanidades, teniendo como lugar de enunciación el Caribe colombiano. Algunos de sus temas son la poética, la alteridad, las disidencias corporales, el desarrollo científico tecnológico y la arquitectura. Aquí el Caribe aparece como marco para repensar las herencias y las divergencias frente a discursos hegemónicos. En esta apuesta colectiva, dieciocho académicas tienen el espacio para compartir lo que las apasiona y exponer problemas de relevancia y actualidad en filosofía, literatura, artes y áreas afines. Las autoras entablan un diálogo con el canon dominante a la vez que lo problematizan, lo cuestionan y lo enfrentan a referentes contemporáneos. Los ensayos abordan preocupaciones actuales como lo ambiental, lo decolonial y la equidad de género.

'Todas mis palabras son azores salvajes', primer poemario de la escritora y traductora Gloria Fortún, representa el afán que, cuando se ama, se tiene de construir un lenguaje propio aprovechando que se ha fundado una patria. Un lenguaje que cante —y a veces grite— al amor y al deseo entre mujeres. La voz de la poeta tiene un cuerpo con una presencia rotunda y disidente, un cuerpo que no cumple las normas del canon estético, ni tampoco del recato, la modestia o la moderación. Es un cuerpo que se siente bello, vivo y sensual. La protagonista se celebra a sí misma y a su carne, pero también a las mujeres que han hecho que palpite su corazón —y su entrepierna—, sobre todo a una mujer mítica, que toma la forma de bucanera, de diosa o de vaquera y que está presente a lo largo de todo el poemario. Ella es la representante del amor y del anhelo cuando una pandemia confina el mundo. Ella es, al fin, quien deberá extender su brazo para que se posen en él los azores que la poeta-cetrera ha lanzado a los cielos.

Monstruos de papel se interroga sobre el modo en que, entre 1870 y 1915, la fotografía se incorporó a la medicina argentina a través de las revistas especializadas para producir conocimiento y consenso científico. Analiza cómo, a lo largo de este período, se conformó un canon visual para las ciencias médicas, se incluyó el medio fotográfico en las prácticas científicas experimentales, y se extendió su uso para sostener teorías y prácticas de control social; en particular, aquellas vinculadas a la salud mental y a comportamientos considerados patológicos, como la delincuencia y los ataques de histeria pero también el ejercicio de la disidencia sexogenérica. La de María Claudia Pantoja es una investigación original e interdisciplinaria que pone en diálogo fecundo los estudios sobre cultura visual e impresa, los estudios de género y la historia social de la ciencia y la tecnología.

This carefully crafted ebook: "John Keats - The Man Behind The Lyrics: Life, letters, and literary remains" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. John Keats (1795-1821) was an English Romantic poet. The poetry of Keats is characterized by sensual imagery, most notably in the series of odes. Today his poems and letters are some of the most popular and most analyzed in English literature. During the 19th century, critics deemed them unworthy of attention, distractions from his poetic works. During the 20th century they became almost as admired and studied as his poetry, and are highly regarded within the canon of English literary correspondence. T. S. Eliot described them as "certainly the most notable and most important ever written by any English poet." Keats spent a great deal of time considering poetry itself, its constructs and impacts, displaying a deep interest unusual amongst his milieu who were more easily distracted by metaphysics or politics, fashions or science.
