Perfect Bound Hardcover. In 1979, Georges Perec (1936-1982) wrote a brief entertainment called "The Winter Journey" for a publisher's catalogue. It quickly became his most frequently reprinted short story. Set on the eve of World War II, it recounts the discovery of a great literary masterpiece that conceals a scandalous secret…at the heart of the whole of modern French literature. Every aspect of literary history will have to be rewritten. However, the War intervenes, and the work is lost forever. The present volume, a kind of "hyper-novel," includes and then extends this brief parable, which turns out to be so resonant with possibilities. Georges Perec was perhaps the most celebrated member of the Oulipo group of writers in France, and over the years members of the group have written 20 sequels to this tale, between 1992 and January of this year. The result is a novel of digressions, gradual elaboration and bizarre forays into the totally unexpected. Winter Journeys has become one of the most extended and congenial literary experiments of recent times; it includes meditations on the literary tastes of worms, book-burning in the Nazi period, the delights of plagiarism and the twisted rationality of bibliophilia. First published as a limited paperback edition in 2001, this new volume is twice the length of its predecessor. Please note that pages 136-140 are intentionally printed upside down, as part of the narrative on those pages (François Caradec's "The Worm's Journey," which describes a bookworm's path through a book).

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Cuando los Sumerios Vivian en la India. Platon, Mitos y Civilizaciones Prediluvianas" es una investigacion audaz y no convencional que explora los origenes de la humanidad a traves de un enfoque periodistico, guiado por la curiosidad e inspirado en las palabras de Platon. El autor, un perio…dista titulado, aunque no sigue un metodo academico tradicional, conduce minuciosamente una investigacion filologica que entrelaza analisis textual, investigaciones etimologicas y semanticas, y conversaciones con la inteligencia artificial, para plantear la hipotesis de la existencia de una matriz cultural compartida entre las civilizaciones mas antiguas, con un enfoque particular en las relaciones entre sumerios e indios. El titulo, deliberadamente provocador, no sugiere que los sumerios hayan vivido en la India, sino que estas dos culturas, entre las mas antiguas conocidas, puedan haber mantenido profundos intercambios culturales, dejando huellas en sus textos y tradiciones. La investigacion nace de la lectura de Platon, quien en sus dialogos alude a una humanidad perdida, olvidada por los griegos pero custodiada en los templos egipcios, adonde figuras como Solon y Pitagoras acudian para aprender antiguas memorias grabadas en los muros. Inspirado por estas sugerencias, el autor emprendio un camino de relectura de textos sumerios, acadios, indios, egipcios y de otras civilizaciones, notando "extranezas" que lo impulsaron a tomar apuntes. De una primera publicacion de notas dispersas y aparentemente inconexas, nacio la necesidad de volver sobre las lecturas iniciales para reconstruir los hilos de un discurso mas amplio. El resultado es una obra que, aun manteniendo un enfoque riguroso, se desvia del metodo academico, abrazando el estilo de una investigacion periodistica guiada por la curiosidad y el descubrimiento. Un elemento central del libro es la hipotesis de que la civilizacion de Harappa, identificada con Meluhha en los textos acadios, pudo haber tenido contactos significativos con los sumerios. Esta teoria, propuesta por Samuel Noah Kramer pero descartada por muchos estudiosos, cobra nueva fuerza a traves de un analisis filologico que evidencia convergencias en los textos, los terminos y las estructuras culturales. El autor, apoyado por la isolingueistica y la inteligencia artificial, explora raices etimologicas y semanticas, analizando terminos que definen roles y perfiles sociales en lenguas antiguas como el sumerio, el acadio, los jeroglificos egipcios, el demotico y el sanscrito. Las conversaciones con la IA, recogidas en capitulos dedicados, enriquecen la investigacion con preguntas, respuestas, reconstrucciones y paralelismos lingueisticos, ofreciendo un dialogo vivo y dinamico que arroja luz sobre los textos antiguos. La obra extiende el analisis a egipcios, griegos, romanos y mesoamericanos, considerados reflejos de una humanidad mas antigua, cuyas huellas se pierden en la niebla del pasado. Las similitudes entre estas culturas, evidentes en sus textos y estructuras sociales, resultan demasiado coherentes para ser casuales, sugiriendo un origen comun. El autor plantea la hipotesis de una evolucion que ha oscurecido progresivamente este vinculo ancestral, sin adentrarse en arquetipos o cultos religiosos, sino concentrandose en los procesos historicos y culturales que han moldeado tales convergencias. El libro distingue claramente el analisis textual, basado en fuentes literarias indiscutibles, de las hipotesis especulativas, que se mueven en un ambito de lo posible. No ofrece certezas, sino que invita a reconsiderar el pasado con nuevos ojos, abriendo nuevas perspectivas para la investigacion interdisciplinaria. Dirigido a estudiosos, apasionados de la historia y lectores curiosos, "Cuando los Sumerios Vivian en la India" c Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
