The Passenger: Japan (The Passenger, 1)
Various Various
“Some Japanese stories end violently. Others never end at all, but only cut away, at the moment of extreme crisis, to a butterfly, or the wind, or the moon.”
—Brian Phillips
Visitors from the West look with amazement, and sometimes concern, at Japan’s social structures and unique, complex culture industry; the gigantic scale of its tech corporations and the resilience of its traditions; the extraordinary diversity of the subcultures that flourish in its “post-human” megacities. The country nonetheless remains an intricate and complicated jigsaw puzzle, an inexhaustible source of inspiration for stories, reflections, and reportage. The subjects in this volume range from the Japanese veneration of the dead to the Tokyo music scene, from urban alienation to cinema, from sumo to toxic masculinity. Caught between an ageing population and extreme post-modernity, Japan is an ideal observation point from which to understand our age and the one to come.

No dejes de escribirme. Cartas a la madre
Various Various
Es posible que muchos escritores y artistas guarden ciertas reservas con los asuntos íntimos presentes en su obra. En cambio, su correspondencia puede ser el reino de la libertad en el que todo cabe, en el que es posible la confesión sin pudores, la declaración desesperada y, en el caso de las cartas a la madre, un diálogo (o a veces un monólogo) vital, un reproche, un ajuste de cuentas o un consuelo al amparo de un edípico vínculo. Del verbo profundo de Gabriela Mistral como introducción, a Alejandra Pizarnik y Silvia Plath. Baudelaire, Vicente Huidobro y Luis Oyarzun; Frida Kahlo y Jean Cocteau, Rilke y Theodoro Adorno, entre otros, les escriben a sus madres en diversas circunstancias de sus vidas. Cada una de las cartas contenidas en este libro, nos hablan desde su silencio de desvelos y afanes, de alegrías y derrotas, en las que ingresamos a un universo personal, a las tensiones y contradicciones de un lazo vital que marca un destino. Cartas llenas de amor, ternura y complicidad, mensajes de perdón y agradecimiento, pero también de capricho e incomprensión. Epístolas en las que fluye la escritura íntima y latente que da cuenta de ese vínculo, único e indeleble, al que estamos unidos.

Keep Calm and Carry On
Various Various
Keep Calm and Carry On was a World War 2 government poster discovered in a dusty box nine years ago. Though it never saw the light of day in 1939 (it was only supposed to go up if Britain was invaded), it has suddenly struck a chord in our current difficult times, now we are in need of a stiff upper lip and optimistic energy once again. Gordon Brown had one up in 10 Downing Street and James May wears a Keep Calm T-shirt on the telly - it is suddenly everywhere. The book is packed full of similarly motivational and inspirational quotes, proverbs, mantras and wry truths to help us through the recession, from such wits as Churchill, Disraeli and George Bernard Shaw. Funny, wise and stirring - it is a perfect source of strength to get us all through the coming months.
'A banker is a fellow who lends you his umbrella when the sun is shining and wants it back the minute it begins to rain' Mark Twain 'It's a recession when your neighbor loses his job; it's a depression when you lose your own' Harry S. Truman

Sofistas. Testimonios y fragmentos (Biblioteca Clásica Gredos nº 221) (Spanish Edition)
Various Various
Este volumen reúne los dichos de los principales exponentes del movimiento sofístico, conservados directa o indirectamente, en citas de otros autores, así como las valoraciones favorables y adversas que hacia ellos expresaron escritores y filósofos posteriores, en especial Platón.
La imagen sumamente negativa de los sofistas que ha predominado en la tradición de la historia de la filosofía, y de la que Platón es el máximo responsable, ha sido matizada y hasta rechazada por muchos estudiosos modernos, que han puesto de relieve la importancia de estos maestros de retórica y pensamiento del siglo V a.C. El nombre genérico no designa una escuela filosófica, ni siquiera un movimiento unitario, sino una línea de renovación pedagógica, a menudo calificada de ilustrada o enciclopédica, que preparaba a los ciudadanos atenienses para desenvolverse en la vida pública, mediante discursos y razonamientos. Los sofistas ofrecían, en lugar de la educación aristocrática tradicional, una formación intelectual sistemática, una enseñanza privada y un plan de estudios completo necesario en la cultura democrática. Cobraban por impartirlo, algo inusitado en la sociedad griega, en la que lo habitual era que el individuo se formara en el seno mismo de la ciudad, sin por eso se les reprochó vender falsa sabiduría a quien pudiera pagarles y rebajar la virtud en cuestiones éticas y políticas a cálculo pragmático de logros y ganancias.
Entre estas dos valoraciones opuestas (maestros para la vida democrática en la pólis o instructores mercenarios de enseñanzas superficiales y desvirtuadas), es posible delimitar los temas fundamentales de la enseñanza sofí el estudio del lenguaje (desde la filosofía del lenguaje hasta la reflexión gramatical), el dominio de la retórica, la acción y la eficacia política, las relaciones entre el ámbito de la naturaleza y el de la cultura, el cuestionamiento sistemático de todas las opiniones y creencias tradicionales, la afirmación de la independencia intelectual con un talante empírico y escéptico, incluso positivista.
Este volumen reúne los fragmentos que nos han llegado de los principales representantes del movimiento sofí Protágoras, Gorgias, Licofrón, Pródico, Trasímaco, Hipias, Antifonte, Critias, conservados a menudo de modo indirecto, en citas de otros autores (desde Platón y Aristóteles a Jenofonte, Plutarco, Cicerón y demás representantes de la gran tradición grecolatina). El volumen incorpora además de tales citas, textuales o no, las valoraciones que estos escritores hicieron de los sofistas, lo que posibilita conocer en lo posible no sólo qué afirmaron efectivamente éstos, sino también sus efectos y repercusiones en la literatura y la filosofía clásicas.

Irish Fairy and Folk Tales
Various Various
The tales collected for Irish Fairy and Folk Tales all are reprinted from nineteenth-century sources, but they date back much further, to a time when they were part of a centuries-old oral tradition of storytelling and had yet to be committed to the printed page. These are stories that passed down through the ages virtually unaltered in their telling. To those who told and listened to them, they expressed something fundamental about Irish culture and the Irish way of life.
The stories in this volume feature a wide variety of fantastic beings, including ghosts, witches, fairies, and changelings, but several feature creatures that are virtually exclusive to Ireland: the banshee, the merrow, the pooka, and the leprechaun. Read these tales of frightening supernatural horrors, brave folk heroes, and everyday people clever enough to outwith the devil, and you'll agree that they could only take place on Irish soil.

In the Garden: Essays on Nature and Growing
Various Various
Gardening, then, is a practice of sustained noticing . . .’
Outdoor space is something everyone should have access to. But you don’t need a garden to become a gardener.
Growing plants and vegetables forces us to pause, pay attention and look more closely. From the vantage point of even the smallest windowsill garden we can observe the passing of time through the shifting of the seasons, as well as the environmental changes the planet is undergoing.
In this collection of essays, fourteen writers go beyond simply considering a plot of soil to explore how gardening is a shared language, an opportunity for connection, something that is always evolving. Penelope Lively trains her gardening eye on her gardens past and present; Paul Mendez reflects on the image of the paradisal garden; Jon Day asks whether an urban community garden can be a radical place; and Victoria Adukwei Bulley considers the power of herbs and why there is no such thing as a weed.
A collection about gardening unlike any other, In the Garden brings together fourteen brilliant writers to interrogate what is most important and pressing about growing today.
Verbal Riddim: Dub Poetry
Various Various
This is dub bold and musical, funny and furious.This collection brings together the work of nine inventive and brilliant poets who defined and drove the dub poetry genre. From the Caribbean, Canada and the UK, the poetry in this collection spans forty years, as dub became a powerful cultural and creative force.With roots in the reggae culture of 1970s Kingston, dub poetry uses the vivid expressions of everyday spoken language to describe and challenge the experience of life on the margins. Early dub poetry took on police violence, slums and poverty. Later, as Caribbean migrants arrived in countries like Britain and Canada, dub poets faced new racism, discrimination and hostility. Over four difficult decades, dub gave marginalised people a voice for their anger, defiance and creativity. It was the soundtrack to post-Windrush culture.Serious and humorous, alive and urgent, here is the very best of dub poetry.The poets included in this collection Oku Onuora, Mikey Smith, Mutabaruka, Jean 'Binta' Breeze, James Berry, Benjamin Zephaniah, Ahdri Zhina Mandiela, Lillian Allen and Afua Cooper.

El Lado Oscuro
Various Various
Apariciones macabras, pactos con el diablo, cadáveres resucitados, monstruos de ciudad, pesadillas automáticas, aberraciones científicas... Todo suena extrañamente vigente y familiar. Los primeros relatos góticos y fantásticos, tal como los conocemos hoy en día, aparecen en el siglo XIX de la mano de los grandes autores del romanticismo alemán, anglosajón y francés. El género fantástico, en oposición a las grandes obras realistas y costumbristas de la época, les permite desarrollar su inclinación por lo sentimental, por lo patético, por lo macabro y lo inexplicable. Los autores románticos se inspiran además del folclore tradicional y resucitan historias y leyendas populares. De este modo, alimentan nuestro imaginario colectivo hasta la actualidad. La fantasía, la ciencia ficción y el género de horror, que conocemos hoy en día, se entremezclan en sus orígenes con la reivindicación romántica por lo tenebroso y lo irracional, a la que se añaden poco a poco reivindicaciones de carácter más social y crítico, como ocurre con la obra de Kafka. En efecto, el género fantástico permite situar en el mismo plano lo ilusorio y lo auténtico: de esta forma, los escritores no solo se limitan a la evocación poética del sufrimiento subjetivo, sino que introducen reflexiones de corte filosófico y político sobre la ciencia, la tecnología y por supuesto el ser humano. Teniendo en cuenta el imparable auge del género de la ciencia ficción (distopías futuras y contemporáneas en nuestras pantallas de cine, televisión, ordenador y móvil) y de las historias de fantasmas y apariciones, pero también el resurgir de supersticiones y rituales –más o menos– mágicos que vivimos en nuestros días, no es de extrañar que Maupassant o Kafka estén tan presentes. Este estuche de dos tomos reúne una colección de relatos de los maestros del género fantástico, desde Hoffmann y Poe hasta “el inventor de mundos” H.G. Wells, pasando por algunas leyendas del folklore de regiones próximas y distantes (Japón, Egipto, Francia), por algunos de los cuentos más sobrecogedores de los Hermanos Grimm e incluso por Voltaire y sus historias filosóficas.
