Описание: The Czech-Brazilian philosopher Vilem Flusser (1920–1991) has been recognized as a decisive past master in the emergence of contemporary media theory and media archeology. His work engages and also rethinks several mythologies of modernity, devising new methodologies, experimental literary practices, and expanded hermeneutics that trouble traditional practices of literary/literate knowledge, shared experience, reception, and communication. Working within an expanded concept of modernism, Flusser presciently noted the power inherent in algorithmic information apparatuses to reshape our fundamental conceptions of culture and history. In an increasingly technological world, Flusser's form of experimental theory-fiction pits philosophy against cybernetics as it forces the category of “the human” to confront the inhuman world of animals and machines. The contributors to Understanding Flusser, Understanding Modernism engage with the multiplicity of Flusser’s thought as they provide a general analysis of his work, engage in comparative readings with other philosophers, and offer expanded conceptualizations of modernism. The final section of the volume includes an extended glossary clarifying the playful terminology used by Flusser, which will be a valuable resource for experts and students alike.

Описание: The son of one of the greatest writers of our time-Nobel Prize winner and internationally best-selling icon Gabriel Garcia Marquez-remembers his beloved father and mother in this tender memoir about love and loss.
The son of one of the greatest writers of our time--Nobel Prize winner and internationally bestselling icon Gabriel Garc a M rquez--remembers his beloved father and mother in this tender memoir about love and loss.
In March 2014, Gabriel Garc a M rquez, one of the most acclaimed writers of the twentieth century, came down with a cold. The woman who had been beside him for more than fifty years, his wife Mercedes Barcha, was not hopeful; her husband, affectionately known as "Gabo," was then nearly 87 and battling dementia. I don't think we'll get out of this one, she told their son Rodrigo.
Hearing his mother's words, Rodrigo wondered, "Is this how the end begins?" To make sense of events as they unfolded, he began to write the story of Garc a M rquez's final days. The result is this intimate and honest account that not only contemplates his father's mortality but reveals his remarkable humanity.
Both an illuminating memoir and a heartbreaking work of reportage, A Farewell to Gabo and Mercedes transforms this towering genius from literary creator to protagonist, and paints a rich and revelatory portrait of a family coping with loss. At its center is a man at his most vulnerable, whose wry humor shines even as his lucidity wanes. Gabo savors affection and attention from those in his orbit, but wrestles with what he will lose--and what is already lost. Throughout his final journey is the charismatic Mercedes, his constant companion and the creative muse who was one of the foremost influences on Gabo's life and his art.
Bittersweet and insightful, surprising and powerful, A Farewell to Gabo and Mercedes celebrates the formidable legacy of Rodrigo's parents, offering an unprecedented look at the private family life of a literary giant. It is at once a gift to Gabriel Garc a M rquez's readers worldwide, and a grand tribute from a writer who knew him well.

Описание: This is a book of freeform poetry written in both, English and Spanish from the point of view of a man who, without formal education and from a small village in the State of Jalisco, M xico, emigrated to the United States along thousands of others in search of a better life. In plain, visual language, he tells stories about his youth, about his family and traditions, and the sharp contrast between two worlds. The sometimes crude reality of his poems describe his arrival, his progress not only on learning English without a schoolroom but also his start on the labor force including picking fruit in California, his mishaps and adventures, his progress fitting in and, finally, the way he sees his home country at this stage on his life. Este es un libro de poes a espont nea escrito en ambos, Ingl s y Espa ol, desde el punto de vista de un hombre quien, sin una educaci n formal y proveniente de un peque o rancho en el Estado de Jalisco, M xico, emigr a los Estados Unidos como lo hicierom miles de otros en b squeda de una vida mejor. En un lenguaje sencillo y visual, l cuenta historias de su juventud, de su familia y tradici nes y el agudo contraste entre dos mundos. En una forma realista y algunas veces cruda, l describe en sus poemas su llegada, su progreso no solamente en aprender el Ingl s sin un sal n de clases pero tambi n su comienzo en la fuerza laboral incluyendo la pizca de fruta en California, sus tropiezos y aventuras, su progreso de asimilaci n y, finalmente, la forma en que v a su pa s natal hasta esta etapa de su vida.
