        El laberinto de la soledad by Octavio Paz

        by Catherine Davies, Anthony Stanton

        If one had to identify one central, defining text from modern Mexican culture, it would be Octavio Paz´s famous essay, El laberinto de la soledad. This fully annotated edition includes the complete text in Spanish (with the author's final revisions), and notes and additional material in English. The editor's introduction contextualizes the essay and discusses central features: autobiographical and textual origins, intellectual sources, reception and canonization, generic ambiguity, structure, and governing symbols. The intellectual sources identified range from Marx, Nietzsche and Freud to the more contemporary ones of the French College of Sociology (Caillois), the Surrealist movement, the ideas of D. H. Lawrence, previous essays from writers in Mexico (such as Samuel Ramos) and Latin America. Several lines of interpretation are examined to show how the work can be read as a psycho-historical essay, an autobiographical construct or a modern literary myth. Transdisciplinary by nature, this literary essay is both an imaginative construction of personal and national identity, and also a critical deconstruction of dominant stereotypes. It seeks to redefine the complex relationships that exist between psychology, myth, history and Mexican culture. This edition also includes excerpts of the author's opinions on his essay, a time-line of Mexican history, a selected vocabulary, and themes for discussion and debate. Paz's first full-length prose work remains his most well-known and widely read text, and this edition will appeal to sixth-form and university students, teachers, researchers and general readers with a knowledge of Spanish. ;

        Mexique

        El nombre del barco

        by María José Ferrada, Ana Penyas

        On May of 1937, during the Spanish Civil War, 456 sons and daughters of republican fighters took the transatlantic boat Mexique, that set sail in Bordeau to arrive in Mexico. Previsions were that they would stay there three or four months, but the Republican defeat and the beginning of the Second World War changed that brief exile into a definitive one.  This books tells the story not only of those children, but also about the ship, being aware that we do not know how many boats try to cross our oceans every day, moving human beings that have full rights to a proper way of living and not to stand over a land that tears apart below their feet.

        Mamá india

        by Soledad Urquia

        The protagonist of this virtuoso first novel spends a year wandering through the interior of India. She comes from a comfortable background and has left behind a promising future to seek out what one seeks in India: meaning. Most of the foreigners who sporadicallyaccompany her are Westerners engaged in religious tourism as consumerist and bizarre as any other tourism. Unlike them, she complies with the rituals of asceticism and bareness: endless hours of meditation per day, countless trips in crowded trains, border runs to renew her visa to stay, always, just a little bit longer. With a humility that matches her wardrobe, always exposed to the torridness of the human and natural landscape, this book is a meticulous initiatory path; the most exciting part is that it never stops questioning itself. Does she find the meaning she’s searching for? With elegance and detachment, this admirable novel offers a possible answer to that question.

        La luz y la montaña

        by Soledad Urquia

        A woman goes to live together with her husband and their little daughter in a village nestled between mountains and streams. A while before, she set out on a spiritual journey of yoga and the study of Eastern texts. She meditates every morning and keeps a diary where she records those moments, her breathing techniques, where her thoughts and desires wander, and her day-to-day life in the valley.  With a voice that echoes Natalia Ginzburg and Emmanuel Carrére but in her uniquely uncertain and gentle tone, each entry in this diary is a revelation.

        The nurse from Brunete

        by Manuel Maristany

        Brunete, summer 1937. In the assault on the Espolón hill, Javier de Montcada, a young man forced to participate in the civil war due to dramatic family circumstances, falls wounded in the battle of Brunete. The young soldier would have been riddled with bullets if Soledad , Duchess of Simancas, would not have donated her blood to him on the battlefield itself. After recovering from her injury in the military hospital in Salamanca, Soledad, married to the representative of the national side in the Vatican, seduces him in her pasture. Javier confesses his betrayal of his fiancée, Marie-Thérèse de Clermont, the young French woman whose family welcomed him and his mother after a tragic escape through the Pyrenees, in which his little brother was killed by the police. After learning that his father, a soldier who rebelled in Barcelona on July 18, had been shot, he swore revenge and enlisted in the Tercio de Montejurra. When he says goodbye to Soledad to return to the front, nothing makes Javier presage that the war still reserves a unpleasant news.

        Infancia y abandono en la Barcelona del siglo XV

        by Ximena Illanes Zubieta

        Este libro explica cómo fue el abandono de niñas y niños en la Barcelona del siglo XV, deteniéndose en tres etapas esenciales: la escena del abandono, el cuidado de los lactantes en manos de nodrizas y el aprendizaje en casas ajenas. En cada fase se revisan las condiciones de integración y marginación, la presencia de lo femenino y los relatos de amores y desamores. Las historias que aquí se recogen permiten comprender las diferentes dimensiones del abandono, acto que involucraba no solo a los infantes expuestos, sino también a su entorno. Los niños en su mayoría eran abandonados en las puertas del Hospital de la Santa Creu de Barcelona durante las horas menos transitadas para evitar el juicio social. Las cartas que acompañaban a los infantes reflejan el drama de la pobreza y, por ende, la incapacidad forzosa de las madres para asumir el rol de la crianza. Al reconstruir el contexto de la época, el lector tiene la posibilidad de realizar un ejercicio de empatía que vuelve el foco de atención al presente. Es inevitable percibir las duras realidades que se mantienen a lo largo del tiempo y el casi irreparable sufrimiento que causa la soledad en los primeros años de vida.
