Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Cinturón de fuego es un viaje interno y geográfico, marcado por momentos sísmicos de cambio, ocurridos entre dos lugares dentro de la zona geográfica conocida como el cinturón de fuego. El libro explora la experiencia de la migración, dislocación, reubicación y llegada, indagando en el constante movimiento de elementos internos y externos a una persona y la manera en la que la historia personal se mueve como magma a través de un volcán activo hasta llegar a la erupción. Los poemas profundizan en la búsqueda de pertenencia, de sentido, y de identidad. Así mismo, el libro rinde tributo a los elementos, al idioma, y a la tierra y a la manera en la que estos moldean y acompañan a una persona, a sus fantasmas, y sus recuerdos. «. . . Este poemario te acompaña, entre estaciones, recordándote que ?hay ciertas cosas que ni la primavera puede devolver? Carolina te empuja, con una voz que mira hacia adelante con una noción: ?Aquí sigo, todavía soy? Que este libro te penetre con la misma pregunta que Bucheli Peñafiel considera: ?¿Qué recuerdas?? Esta es una poeta y un libro que debes conseguir, una voz que merece ser escuchada». LUPE MENDEZ, autor de Why I Am Like Tequila (Willow Books, 2019) y Poeta Laureado Emérito de Texas «Cinturón de fuego nos regala una nueva y potente voz poética en el panorama de la poesía latinoamericana en español. . . . esta ópera prima, está destinada a dejar una huella profunda en quienes se acerquen a ella. . . » ALESSIO PIRAS, hispanista y escritor, University of New Mexico «Evocando paisajes y leyendas ecuatorianas, Cinturón de fuego se destaca por su fuerza lírica y la vivacidad de sus imágenes en un trasfondo de pérdida y anhelo.

Soft cover. Condition: Good. An assiduous student's former Textbook with marginalia, highlighting and underlining throughout. Clean and tight though. "Demonstrating that globalization is a centuries-old phenomenon, From Silver to Cocaine examines the commodity chains that have connected producers in Latin America with consumers around the world for five hundred years. In clear, accessible essays, historians from Latin America, England, and the United States trace the paths of many of Latin America's most important exports: coffee, bananas, rubber, sugar, tobacco, silver, henequen (fiber), fertilizers, cacao, cocaine, indigo, and cochineal (insects used to make dye). Each contributor follows a specific commodity from its inception, through its development and transport, to its final destination in the hands of consumers. The essays are arranged in chronological order, according to when the production of a particular commodity became significant to Latin America's economy. Some—such as silver, sugar, and tobacco—were actively produced and traded in the sixteenth century; others—such as bananas and rubber—only at the end of the nineteenth century; and cocaine only in the twentieth. By focusing on changing patterns of production and consumption over time, the contributors reconstruct complex webs of relationships and economic processes, highlighting Latin America's central and interactive place in the world economy. They show how changes in coffee consumption habits, clothing fashions, drug usage, or tire technologies in Europe, Asia, and the Americas reverberate through Latin American commodity chains in profound ways. The social and economic outcomes of the continent's export experience have been mixed. By analyzing the dynamics of a wide range of commodities over a five-hundred-year period, From Silver to Cocaine highlights this diversity at the same time that it provides a basis for comparison and points to new ways of doing global history.
