Visualizing Loss in Latin America Biopolitics, Waste, and the Urban Environment


Free Download Visualizing Loss in Latin America: Biopolitics, Waste, and the Urban Environment
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031288300 | 402 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 11 MB
Visualizing Loss in Latin America engages with a varied corpus of textual, visual, and cultural material with specific intersections with the natural world, arguing that Latin American literary and cultural production goes beyond ecocriticism as a theoretical framework of analysis. Gisela Heffes poses the following crucial question: How do we construct a conceptual theoretical apparatus to address issues of value, meaning, tradition, perspective, and language, that contributes substantially to environmental thinking, and that is part and parcel of Latin America? The book draws attention to ecological inequality and establishes a biopolitical, ethics-based reading of Latin American art, film, and literature that operates at the intersection of the built environment and urban settings. Heffes suggest that the aesthetic praxis that emerges in/from Latin America is permeated with a rhetoric of waste-a significant trait that overwhelmingly defines it.

North Korea, Tricontinentalism, and the Latin American Revolution, 1959-1970


Free Download North Korea, Tricontinentalism, and the Latin American Revolution, 1959-1970
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1009305247 | 242 Pages | PDF | 1.2 MB
In this deftly argued book, Moe Taylor examines the flourishing relationship between North Korea, Cuba, and the Latin American Left through the 1960s. Beginning with the Cuban Revolution, which represented North Korea’s first phase of major engagement with the region, both nations found common ground in the belief that the hopes of the international Left relied on an anti-imperialist, anti-US united front – a global campaign of guerrilla warfare against US power. This special partnership included a joint-program to train, arm, and finance revolutionary movements throughout Latin America. In the process, North Korea became an important influence on Cuban and Latin American left-wing discourse on matters of economic development, revolutionary organization and strategy, democracy, and leadership. Both nations pioneered a new Third World-ist political phenomenon – Tricontinentalism – that challenged Soviet and Chinese leadership over the international communist movement, and injected a fiercely radical current into the left-wing and anti-colonial movements of the Global South.

Latin Loanwords in Ancient Greek A Lexicon and Analysis


Free Download Latin Loanwords in Ancient Greek: A Lexicon and Analysis
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1108841007 | 747 Pages | PDF | 7 MB
Why, when, and how did speakers of ancient Greek borrow words from Latin? Which words did they borrow? Who used Latin loanwords, and how? Who avoided them, and why? How many words were borrowed, and what kind of word? How long did the loanwords survive? Until now, attempts to answer such questions have been based on incomplete and often misleading evidence, but this study offers the first comprehensive collection of evidence from papyri, inscriptions, and literature from the fifth century BC to the sixth century AD. That collection – included in the book as a lexicon of Latin loanwords – is examined using insights from linguistic work on modern languages to provide new answers that often differ strikingly from earlier ones. The analysis is accessibly presented, and the lexicon offers a firm foundation for future work in this area.
