Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Tras sobrevivir a la guerra fratricida española, crecer con hambre en tiempos de racionamiento, y rebelarse contra una sociedad que exigía a las viudas veinteañeras seguir enlutadas hasta la muerte, a mediados de los años cuarenta -maleta de cartón en ristre- dejó su pueblo en busca del anonimato y el progreso que prometía el Madrid de posguerra. A pesar de su falta de formación académica y de medios, Acuña no pasa desapercibida en la capital, por entonces en plena expansión. Establece sus primeros contactos con el mundo artístico a través de personalidades como Cayetana Fitz-James Stuart, Duquesa de Alba; Antonio el Bailarín, Pepita Reyes, folklóricas y actrices de primera fila, y jóvenes cronistas que forman hoy parte de la historia del periodismo español. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. En esta segunda recopilación poética de María Acuña se amplía el abanico de poemas dedicados al amor que, en sus varias versiones, formaban parte ya de Poesía descalza. Si en la Antigüedad los griegos llegaron a distinguir hasta diez tipos de amor, son cuatro los que predominan en la obra de Acuña: Eros, Storgé, Philia y Agáp? Eros es el amor sexual, Storgé el amor fraternal entre padres e hijos, maridos y esposas, entre hermanos; Philia amor hacia el prójimo y afecto entre amigos, Agáp? es el amor abnegado que nos insta a la acción y busca el bienestar de los demás. Poesía descalza oscilaba con fluidez entre estas cuatro definiciones del amor y consta de veinte poemas con tres marcadas unidades temáticas: amor y desamor, guerra y paz, campo y naturaleza. En cambio, en Por la vida siento la fuerza Acuña le echa un pulso a Eros. Ahora todo es verbo y cuerpo, esperanza y desengaño, ansia y embriaguez, condena y cárcel; las diferentes formas de amar no se pierden, pero sí se supeditan al amor erótico. En los ochenta y nueve poemas que conforman este libro prevalece la intimidad sexual, aunque las demás acepciones del amor asomen tras muchos de sus versos. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Condition: New. With the end of apartheid, South African cinema is at a turning point in its history. This collection offers an exploration of a film industry that has excluded its country's black majority, in both representation and production - and which now must overcome collusion between racist ideology and film form. Until recently, filmmakers could work only within a culture that reluctantly took black South Africans into account. Therefore, to explore what South African cinema has been and could become, the authors do not limit their discussion to film production but approach cinema as a manifestation of cultural history. How has the purpose of cinema been viewed at different times in South Africa, by different governments and social groups? What is the relation between film and a sense of nationhood in South Africa? Such questions lead to a consideration not only of films made by South Africans in South Africa but also of an unfolding film culture within a series of stages that have yet to give rise to a national cinema.…
