In this issue can be appreciated a variety of topics from many different Argentine publishers. It is evident the valuable and up to date contents, the quality of the authors and the value of the contents, so we hope this catalogue will spark the interest of publishers of other languages.

RICOS FLACOS Y GORDOS POBRES - La alimentación en crisis RICH PEOPLE THIN AND POOR PEOPLE FAT - Crisis vs nourishment What do people eat, if given the chance? In which ways have human eating habits changed lately? Is it true that there is not enough food to meet the current needs of the entire human population? Patricia Aguirre, anthropologist and recognized expert in the subject, provides answers to these and many other questions regarding the scarcely explored matter of food as a historical, social and cultural fact. And she queries the mostly accepted concept of eating as a “biological” and “natural” act. While taking into account that food security means the right to secure proper food, the author describes the present consumption strategies that have made poor people to be fat in their scarcity and rich ones to be thin in their wealth.

Drinkable water has become the strategic resource of 21st century. It is so scarce that it comprises only 2,5 per cent of the total amount of water on earth. Any source of water that runs out or gets polluted, is lost for ever. This situation puts the world in the edge of an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe. The attention focused on oil, in the past and still nowadays, may in the near future turn to water, to the point of transforming it into the cause of serious armed conflicts. Powerful countries are totally conscious of the worsening of this situation in the next decades, with intense droughts, starvation and scarce safe water. Having misused their own natural resources, now they are focusing on those regions that still keep theirs. Our survival as communities, and that of the planet, depends on our ability to preserve them. Author: ELSA BRUZZONE History Professor, specialized in Geopolitics, Strategy and National Defence. Ad honorem consultant to the National Congress on strategic natural resources. She has published several works and has given courses and lectures in the country and abroad.

LA HISTORIA DESBOCADA - Nuevas crónicas de la globalización RUNAWAY HISTORY - New globalization chronicles According to the great Argentine writer and philosopher José Pablo Feinmann, “we are in the middle of a runaway history. Facts do not have sense, rationality, dialectic or internal logic either. Heisenberg and his principle of uncertainty take possession of history. There is no truth. Following Nietschze’s phrase (“There are no facts, just interpretations”), Foucault will prove that the truth is a creation of the power. History is not predictable. It is dominated by chance and penetrated by uncertainty. It is not dominated by men any more. It is no longer the history of class struggle and the coming of socialism. Neither that of Christ’s martyrdom and humanity’s final redemption nor that of the liberation from all fears and all needs by means of science end economy. It has gone runaway and we not only ignore its course but we fear it.” ISBN 978-987-614-211-3 2009 Pages: 232 14 x 20 cm CDD 070.4 Chronicles

Author: JOSÉ PABLO FEINMANN Graduated in Philosophy, he has written novels, essays, theatre plays, film scripts and countless notes for newspapers and magazines. Amongst his most outstanding novels are Últimos días de la víctima (Last days of the victim), El ejército de ceniza (The ash army), La astucia de la razón (The cunning of reason) and La crítica de las armas (The critic of the arms). And among his essays are, Filosofía y Nación (Philosophy and Nation), La creación de lo posible (The creation of the possible) and Escritos imprudentes (Imprudent writings).

PEPE MUJICA - De tupamaro a presidente PEPE MUJICA - From tupamaro to president José Mujica began his political life as a young anarchist at the age of 14; since then, he has travelled a long and hard way, following always the path of dignity. In this warm and enlightening interview by María Esther Gilio, carried out in two meetings at Mujica’s home in Rincón del Cerro, Montevideo, victories and set backs are remembered as well as his principles, honesty and passion for learning and working. “Pepe”, as everybody calls the Uruguayan president, knew the glory of people’s recognition when, as a young tupamaro, took up arms to defend his compatriots’ dream of justice; he would later meet pain and the terrible experience of thirteen years in jail under subhuman conditions; and then, the return to political life without arms in his hands.

LA REVOLUCIÓN SILENCIOSA - Biotecnología y vida cotidiana THE SILENT REVOLUTION - Biotechnology and everyday life In any Argentine, Spanish, Turkish or Australian spot, neighbours talk about the domain and possibilities of genetic information, regarding the story of Dolly, the cloned sheep, Lionel Messi’s physical development, or the gene of infidelity. Nobody gets surprised while hearing in the news about “tailor made” babies conceived to heal their brothers, or about possibilities to choose in advance eye colour or height of our children. Genes are in the move and they invade our daily life step by step. In this book scientist Alberto Díaz commits himself to shed some light on widespread confusion. Although still harmless, this confusion indicates a way and a kind of social imaginary. ISBN 978-987-614-228-1 2010 Pages: 232 14 x 20 cm CDD 620.8 Biotechnology

Science fiction has deep roots in the history of western culture: its expression has been present all along the 20th century and into the 21st one, from literature and films to a diverse kind of languages. The growth of science fiction is not a conventional narration. It is neither an attempt to resume and describe the origin of this kind of narration, nor to make a record of its main works, writers or tendencies. Its purpose is to suggest a trip through certain ways science fiction has taken to picture one of its main themes: the relationship between men and technology. Author: JAVIER LORCA He studied Literature and is graduated in Communication Sciences from Buenos Aires University (UBA). Editor, proofreader and translator for several publications. He worked as a journalist for the Culture section of La Nación newspaper. Working since 1998 at Página/12 newspaper as publisher of the section “Universidad” and assistant editor of “El pais”.

PRELIMINARY STUDY: Osvaldo Bayer The paraguayan pain and What yerba mate plantations are, were first published in Montevideo, short after the death of their author, the Spanish anarchist Rafael Barrett. During his short stay in America he became a revolutionary, wrote a dozen of unforgettable books and founded a literary style. A style considered to be brilliant by the likes of Augusto Roa Bastos and Jorge Luis Borges. This unique edition of Barrett’s two great books has the added value of Osvaldo Bayer’s essay, especially made for the occasion. “This work has deeply moved me, and I need to say it and to write it -confesses Bayer-. Barrett’s wisdom invades us, showing to us the very images of unfairness, the perfidy of a system that divides human beings between those who hold power, those who are subdued and those who resist.” Author: RAFAEL BARRETT Born in Spain in 1876, arrived to Argentina in 1903 and one year later to Paraguay. A militant anarchist, he fought against poverty and unfairness and, in the meantime, he managed to write a handful of unparaleled books. “Barrett is the most brilliant intellectual of the European generation to put a foot on Argentine and Paraguayan soil”, as writer and historian Osvaldo Bayer says about him in the study especially written for this edition.

This book narrates the conflict between nature and society and its social consequences in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America, from the Mayas to Cervantes. History and ecology go together. In Europe, from the cities, housing, food and plagues during the Middle Age; woodlands and farming and deforestation; the matter of water and transhumant cattle in Cervantes’ Spain. In America, references go from the irrigated lands of Teotihuacan and the Maya environmental crisis, to the giant stone heads in Easter Island. The bison’s culture and solar urbanism in North America. The conquest of Central America and its ecological changes. Slaver farms and the Portuguese Empire islands. An analysis based upon the notion of symbiosis and shared evolution between human societies and ecosystems. A historical review of the destruction of the environment and to the Darwinian concept of evolution, where the strongest ones prevail with the subsequent domination of men over nature. Author: ANTONIO ELIO BRAILOVSKY Political Economy graduate from Buenos Aires University (UBA), he is an outstanding figure in Argentine ecology. His professional commitment to the environmental studies has been expressed both in teaching, on public duty and in the writing of many books, some of them emblematic. Current lecturer at UBA and Belgrano University, he has also been constituent conventional, general director of the Ecology Commission at Buenos Aires’ legislative body and assistant ombudsman with regard to Environment and Urbanism.

EL SECRETO DE LOS GENIOS 2 - Estrategias y métodos de trabajo de los grandes creadores THE SECRET OF THE GENIUS 2 - Strategies and working methods of the great creators Stevenson used to write while sitting on his bed as if he were in a hypnotic trance. Vázquez Montalban left his desk once and again to give a touch to his cooking. Dickens read his texts aloud to find the right tone. Flaubert locked himself for months at his home in front of the Sena. Cortázar loved to write at bars and he almost made no corrections. Calvino used to correct so much that his originals looked like a big crossing out. In his second book about the secrets of the great creators, the author invites us to a trip to the lives, the work and the ideas of brilliant writers, artists and creators who have helped so much to make life worthwhile.

Daniel is 20 years old, he is an orphan and lives under the shadow of his dead father. He just arrived in Buenos Aires from the country and in this initial journey he would know some aspects of reality he may not even believe to be possible. In The dead compasses, the plot exceeds the borders of the genre: in the nocturnal world where the story takes place, questions about existence meet up with the most sordid places in the downtown area of Buenos Aires, the huge bookcase at Daniel’s father’s house, prostitution and gambling. In his naive cynicism of youth, Daniel approaches to human beings and things, believing he knows about them, only to realize that they are not as he expected them to be. The story is complex and fascinating by itself, with the added value of Roger Pla’s writing wisdom, which have made him one of the most remarkable Argentine writers. Author: ROGER PLA Born in Rosario in 1912. Fatherless, although he could never complete his high school studies, he was a literature teacher at the age of 21. He began to work as a journalist in 1936 and made a living out of a varied kind of writing jobs: proofreader at La Prensa newspaper, columnist at El Mundo; he even wrote Made to order books. Apart from this one, other of his memorable novels are Los robinsones (The robinsons) and Paño verde (Green cloth).

ANALISIS DE DECISIONES ESTRATEGICAS - En entornos inciertos, cambientes y complejos This book is the result of theoretical research and the author's practice in this new discipline called Decision Analysis. The understandings reached at many years of practice have enabled us to understand that the use of the discipline requires changing our way of thinking about the world. We must not only use new information, but also change the context in which we process such information. This means that we must create new distinctions that apparently are natural, given the biases towards the achievement of results, but that can be learned. Decision Analysis has emerged from theory to practice to become a discipline able to balance the various factors that exist in a decision.

This includes treating both theoretical and philosophical issues (ontological and epistemological) and technical, while seeking to build bridges between both domains.

Seamos libres y lo demás no importa nada - Vida de San Martín Let us be free and the rest won't matter at all - Life of San Martín The figure of the Libertador General José de San Martin is essential in understanding the history of Latin America. More than 150 years after his death, it continues to set the course: over time, his figure has been repeatedly studied and exalted. However, his life and his epic have been valued in different ways. In some cases, that valuation resulted in a sort of distortion of historical reality. Without concessions, taking into account all of the previous studies, Norberto Galasso has performed a patient task of research and comparison of sources to present a San Martin that rises in his fundamental role, in his true human and revolutionary dimension.

He has more than 50 published titles. Norberto Galasso

Concepciones de teatro - Poéticas teatrales y bases epistemológicas Conceptions of theatre - Teatrical poetics and epistemologic basis After centuries of activity, various ways of understanding and doing theatre have come up. In Argentina, during the last twenty years, studies on theatre have grown vastly and have been enriched by integrating new orientations on the basis of innovative perspectives developed in the international panorama: Philosophy of Theatre, Comparative Theatre studies, Comparative Poetics, and Cartography of Theatre. This book takes part of this renovation broadening the analytic tools by propounding the concepts of "conception of theatre" and "epistemological basis" that can be applied to the description of diverse poetics (the author analyses deeply Ibsen, Strindberg Maeterlinck and O'Neill's drama) and the history of theatre.

La casa M The "M" house Clara, a teenager who, due to reasons beyond her will, had to return to Argentina along with her family from the exile in Spain, has to begin a new life in a small town. The new environment, where the past becomes omnipresent, triggers conflicting interests, old resentments and forgotten silences. The argument flows around an old mystery concerning the Dictatorship in a particular house of the town. To unveil this mystery, the novel appeals to suspense and detective's logics, with characters that grow and are transformed as they establish new ties. Eventually, the truth allows overcoming the distress of the past and allows justice to be done.

El cine en su época - Una historia política del filme The purpose of this work is to unveil the links created between contemporary art and historic peripeteia characterized by speed, fusion and change. The evolution of political and social history is very noticeable in the structures and contents of fil, and in their advances in the field of audio-visual narration, such as television and digital imaging. Information contained in movies in many cases allow trailing the underlying currents of modern whirlwind. From D. W. Griffith to Lras von Trier or Paul Verhoeven, from communism to neo-liberalism, through fascism, the two world wars and arriving at neo-capitalism globalization, this book makes an effort in synthetic understanding that allows both the film student and the general public to get vividly closer to a universe of works and events clinging to the red thread of dialectic interpretation.

Hacia una literatura sin adjetivos The danger that lies ahead of the children´s and youth literature as regards of its classification is to be presented in advance as "for children" or "for young people". The adjective should be secondary, because the core of an enjoyable work for children and young readers does not come from its adaptability to a target group, but from its quality. When we speak about writing in every subject or genre, the noun is always more important than the adjective.

Estudios de lingüística contrastiva.

As such, it tends to not only meet the needs felt by teachers and students in the teaching / learning of Italian, as well as in the translator´s jobs, but could be an interesting aide for teachers of Spanish as a mother tongue or foreign language.

La semiótica de los bordes - Apuntes de metodología semiótica The author responds to the question "what has to change semiotics to continue being effective?", with his reflections on the challenge of accepting the dynamics of meaning and constructing brief ways to explain it. Because in the confines of the semiotic worlds, at any given moment in history, a social group is able to construct the meaning of the phenomena of its environment, the entropic boundaries are present that will require a new semiotics that exceeds -in their wealth and creativity- the existing one. This books responds to fundamental research issues such as what is a hypothesis, which is a body of information, when can one say that something is semiotically explained, and therefore constitute a valuable tool for deseigning a research project in the area of Social Sciences.

EDICIONES AQUILINA S.A. From Editorial Negro Absoluto, a new gamble on the noir genre has been launched, and right from its first four titles it becomes the hope of much more. Led by the renowned writer Juan Sasturain, the collection Negro Absoluto (Absolute Noir) gathers together prestigious authors with young writers willing to leave aside the dream of famein order to be part of reality. It is a project of detective novels, set in different times and places of Buenos Aires, with original detective sagas that open the game to new narrative territories from the genre's original rules. The new series offers the reader a wide range of possibilities to dive into the underworld and the glamour of a city full of secrets and contradictions.

EL Aventurador, una lectura de Oesterheld - una lectura de Oesterheld When Oesterheld wrote –from the very first children’s stories published by La Prensa or the “Bolsillitos” (Little pocket book) Collection to his purest militant comic strips during his last months of clandestine activism, he did not make things up or invent or make conjectures; Oesterheld would pursue. His entire life became his quest for pursuit. To pursue is to imagine, to suppose, it is a risky proposition: to place the imagination, the power of invention before the notion of conviction, before the body itself. That is to say to become responsible for what you create (and believe). Oesterheld was an adventurer, one who conceived life as an adventure and who lived it to the ultimate consequences.

Sangre Kosher Joyfully and without exaggeration, I believe that with this novel, we are privy to the birth of a new character. And that is no small matter. Most especially because we could say that, Kosher Blood, a novel created within the framework of the noir or police thriller genre, allows us to state with a certain degree of foreseeable enthusiasm, that we are witnesses to the coming into being of an original detective. And it is true, though not enough, to define the story; because Ruth Epelbaum is much more. She is a complete character, with a life of her own. She is an Argentinian Jewish, of a certain age, who ends up- develops as- a detective. Whenever she goes to the hairdresser’s or has tea in the kitchen with Gladys, her employee; whenever her indescribable cousin Lea hooks her up with Chiquito Gold and they are purported to find the dodgy Deborah; whenever she finds a body in the Tigre River or meets a guy on a bus to Parana.

Santeria This Leo Oyola's powerful novel takes place in the days running up to Christmas of 1996, in between the suburbs of Puerto Apache, on the southern edge of the Buenos Aires and El Jabuti, in the Flores neighbourhood, parts of a Buenos Aires unfamiliar to tourists, and indeed to literature itself.Santería takes place in at least two other places; it takes place in between the turn of each ominous card and it takes place in the turbulent mind of our narrator, Fátima Sánchez, also known as La Víbora Blanca (The White Viper). The story begins with the vision of a murder. However, it quickly becomes a race against the clock to access our hero's soul and exorcise her before she falls from grace.

El doble Berni This is about paintings, paintings by Berni and Quinquela Martin, about forgeries, about galleries and about murals. The story begins with the murder of Roberto Taborda, a painter and long-time admirer of Berni who dies while trying to complete a mural in Rosario. His friend, Jorge Lucantis, is asked to identify him. What sets El doble Berni apart from a straight-up-and-down detective novel is that rereading is encouraged. Hindsight will always add something new and unexpected to this rich tapestry that is carefully punctuated with a whole of host of original and enigmatic characters. Gandolfo & Sosa's refuse to let you go until all has been resolved.

El sindrome de Rasputin Like a day-tripping Blade Runner, the Buenos Aires of El síndrome de Rasputín is even worse than Ridley Scott's dystopia: metro tunnels have become homeless colonies; its skyline finds itself permanently soaked by rain; the city's landmarks have been gutted by fire and its inhabitants are paralysed by the fear of unexploded bombs left by the “Bicentenary Nationalists”. In Romero's wonderful novel, the leading characters are three friends, united by all the symptoms that identify them as suffers of Tourette's Syndrome. Beyond the help of any doctor, the three loveable companions, Abelev, Maglier and Muishkin find themselves caught up in wild adventure, held together by their solidarity alone.

Museo de la novela de la Eterna - (Primera novela buena) The Museum of Eterna’s Novel - (The First Good Novel) Macedonio Fernández defined the conditions for a novel´s poetic in Argentina and established in Museo de la novela de la eterna the basis for a history of the genre. He proposes a direct relationship with the great European poetics of the genre and defines here the specificity of the tradition. He doesn´t think about the referent or the localization but the (irreverent) uses to which the procedures and forms of the genre are subdued. Simply, he invents a new history, founding the origin: he writes the first good novel and cancels the previous tradition. With this act that erases any context, he integrates in the most typical of Argentinean traditions. ISBN 978-950-05-1585-6 2010 Pages: 272 14 x 20 cm CDD A863 Fiction. Novel Languages or countries not available: english & portuguese

Author: MACEDONIO FERNÁNDEZ He began writing articles in 1896 for newspapers and magazines such as El Progreso, El tiempo and La montaña. He later published poems and article in the magazine Martín Fierro (first season) and in Proa, which would later be gathered together for Papeles de Recienvenido (1929). His first book No toda es vigilia la de los ojos abiertos, an extensive metaphysical essay, was published in 1928. In 1941, Una novela que comienza appeared in Chile. Macedonio wrote a lot of manuscripts most of wich remained unpublished when he died in 1952. Ediciones Corregidor began the publication in 1974. Macedonio Fernández

Adriana Buenos Aires - (Última novela mala) Adriana Buenos Aires, as “the last bad novel”, was conceived by Macedonio Fernandez in relationship with Museo de la novela de la Eterna, even his author proposed sometime to edit both together, or one after the other. In spite it´s folletinesque nature – the love triangle through a single conception –, it predicts the improvements and innovative proposals of Museo de la novella de la Eterna, the “first good novel”, by displaying the trite procedures of the ruling realism in XIX Century´s Argentinean narrative. It is said, even more if we consider that both were written simultaneously, that one served as a basis for the other in that aesthetic search for the future novel.

Textos selectos Selected texts This anthology, composed by texts of all the work of Macedonio Fernandez,allows interested readers to know some of his works compled in a single volume covering various aspects of his artistic project: novels, tales, poems, short stories, humor, theories, etc. Macedonio is a thinker, an intellectual, an outstanding writer. As a matter of fact, the diverse series of literary traditions in which he is inscribed are mixed, transformed and expressed in an eccentric discourse. For his creative stratagems, Macedonio gave way to an active and creative reading and a skipped reader who allows us to publish that anthology from a fragmentary writing.

Cuentos selectos Selected stories The Andersonian tale-craft offers a wide range of searches, of which this selection wants to be a display: the poetic tone, the alienated gaze that produces magical elements and the ones privileged by fantastic literature, the use of autobiographical facts, the humor, the intertext, the parody of crime genre and the predilection for the highly concentrated narrative pieces. The building of genuine worlds characterizes the true creators. When the miracle happens, it is frequent for the writing to become both a personal and a plural exercise: a revelatory point of access for the others. So it is the reality and effect of a few of the experiences imagined by the constant Anderson Imbert. ISBN 978-950-05-1184-1 2009 Pages: 208 13 x 20 cm CDD A863 Fiction. Anthologies

Piazzolla, la música límite Piazzolla. Borderline music This book explores the aesthetics of Piazzolla’s work, which constituted a unique heartbeat of the body and the city that it does not explain with the ‘evolution of the tango’. A review of his style: a consistent “language” that has crossed different music (Bartók, Bach, Troilo, jazz) with the dramatic pulse of the tango. Among others, the key points discussed here are: to demonstrate why Piazzolla is the latest mutation of this gender, to place the limit nature (between popular and classical) that his music imposes; to locate the elusive but persistent seduction of Piazzolla with jazz or reflect about the encounter of Borges and Piazzolla in the language of our culture.

Obra poética Poetic Work Testimony if the astonishment and endless temptation facing the spectacle of the world, the adoration of the earthly shapes and the feeling of it´s impossible possession, like the permanent call of a never realized dream, where the powers of seduction are the central fire of the human adventure, the poetic work of Enrique Molina, started in 1941 with the publishing of Las cosas y el delirio, continues until the present day with a career of an intense vital tone, that situates it in an exceptional place in the higher levels of the Latin American poetry.

At the same time, he keeps on publishing and receives for his work a large quantity of awards. Enrique Molina – also a plastic artist – travels later to Brazil.

Cuentos II. El gato de Chesire Stories II. The Chesire Cat. Enrique Anderson Imbert stated about that work: “I always preferred the brief forms: they fit better a relativist theory about the world and a imaginist practice of literature. In my tales, even in my novels, the smallest artificial unity is the metaphor, the prosaic poem, the magical situation, the fantastic game. I would convey pure intuitions if I could, but technique forces me to give a shape to them. That shape is drawn in two kinds of ink, the first can be erased and the other is indelible, so, when matter fades, the track of the intuition remains as a smile in the air. It´s the smile of Chesire´s cat. Written throughout almost forty years, it´s natural for these miniatures to show successive literary isms”.

Teatro 3. Visita. Marathon. La cortina de abalorios. Finlandia. Apocalipsis mañana. Theatre 3. Visit. Marathon. The Beaded curtain. Finlandia. Apocalypse tomorrow. Each of Monti's plays explores existencial and aesthetical conflicts and doubts. In his particular and unique poetic creation language appears under a strict polysemy, not allowing prejudices or conceptualizations about reality to limit the theatrical image. Maybe one of the most remarkable features of that poetic is the introduction of highly literary teachings and the preeminence of the poetic and metalinguistic function in the character´s discourse, which, as his textuality evolves, turns into quoted discourses that constantly establish relationships of dependency with the sociopolitical context.

Cine clásico, El - Itinerarios, variaciones y replanteos de una idea Classic cinema - Itineraries, variations and restatements of an idea What is classic cinema? This book does not define the classics of cinema nor does it discuss a canon. While other arts outlined their perceptions of the modern, for several decades cinema established certain ways of showing and narrating on a world scale. Nevertheless, that cinematographic way has manifested itself as very permeable, complex and paradoxical in its structure, as well as especially open to frontier traffic. Those aspects and ways insistently designed as classic are to be revisited today from the perspective of the modern adventure embodied by cinema for over a century now.

Juguetería filosófica, Una - Cine, cronofotografía y arte digital Philosophical toys - Cinema, chronophotography and digital art Throughout the nineteenth century, philosophical toys promoted and accompanied the development of studies on movement, oscillating between mere curiosity for optical effects and a physiological contention on the workings of the sense of sight. Somehow prevailing, philosophical toys lead to cinema. When captured in its reverse, the cinematographic image reveals an unreconciled character and, therefore, a didactic eagerness that teaches to see everything all over again.

Cine (y) digital - Aproximaciones a posibles convergencias entre el cinematógrafo y la computadora Film (and) digital - Different approaches to possible convergence between cinematograph and computer Rethinking the idea of cinematographic language means reconsidering some aspects of cinema history in its gradual combinations: from the original electromechanical and photochemical machine to electronic and digital technologies. This leads us to a reflexion on certain myths, which have marked the history of cinematography machines, and on an idea of staging drawing from the filmmaking practices and experimentation that enable to envision an outlook on the potential of digital film.

The author seizes comic-like and B class cinema materials to recreate an Argentine Frankenstein and the myth of Cain and Abel, destroying the banality of pop culture and imagining a universe where truculent does not exclude emotional.

This essay summarizes the process that ended up on May 25 which bicentennial anniversary Argentina is celebrating now. Above the many historical interpretations which helped to tackle the subject, Revolución brings national heroes like Castelli, Belgrano and Moreno to life, and it analyzes how local and foreign facts, such as Napoleonic occupation of Spain or the frustrated attempt of English colonization, led to the first “patriotic government”.

Without avoiding the necessary depth of analysis, History of the Argentineans is characterized by a clear and concise approach that allows both the non-specialist audience as the student or researcher looking to add a reference and consulting text.

All rights available

The wisdom of the I ching was expressed by men thousands of ago when the woman´s role was limited to a handful of activities behind closed doors. Today it is possible to interpret the Book of Changes from the modern woman´s point of view. This book was thought up in that sense, stressing the female keeling and language: for the first time this ancient Oracle spears directly to women. Its author, Gustavo Andres Rocco, with extensive experience in the study of the I Ching and who also has translated its full text directly from Chinese to Spanish- has achieved one of his most successful work on the subject. Throughout the pages of this book, the reader is taken to a journey into the female imaginary universe with freshness, which allows the reader to analyse and, above all, to embrace the playful aspect of life, all of which makes The Female I Ching a tribute to the goddess. Author: GUSTAVO ANDRÉS ROCCO Born in Buenos Aires, where he lives. He is graduated in Public Relations. He has researched the internal communications of the individual and its myths, analysing numerous ancient texts, including the I Ching to which he has devoted. He has published several books, both in Europe and different countries of Latin America, where he has attained recognition as an expert on the Book of Mutations; He also tackled the study of Chinese language and translated full text of the I Ching into Spanish. Rocco is also a novelist and, as an author, is currently venturing into theater.

LECTURA, ESCRITURA Y EDUCACIÓN READING, WRITING AND EDUCATION Every time we read and write we discover new features of a special world. We are reminded of those from whom we learned to read and write, which in turn generates the excitement we feel when teaching. But as teachers and professors, we know that teaching reading and writing is a responsibility that is not easily carried out; it is a challenging task when our reality shows certain common principles that are at stake with the influx of new generations to the writing culture.

LA INVESTIGACIÓN EN PSICOANÁLISIS THE RESEARCH IN PSYCHOANALYSIS Psychoanalysis is a method rather than a theory. And for Freud, it is not only a method used to cure, but a research method as well. Freud defines Psychoanlysis as a rare yet successful combination between a research method and the theories produced by its research. Therefore, we begin with this key statement: Psychoanlysis is a research method, and from there we can begin to develop its specificities.

Some venture to say all diseases are psychosomatic and can be caused by man’s suffering through confrontation of sociopolitical situations in his everyday life. But as diseases can often be a result of lifestyle choices, we will discuss the manner of being psychosomatic and a universal conception that unites the body and soul.

Playa quemada Burnt Beach «"Nielsen narrates through the eyes of a criminal, a psychologist, a erotomaniac, an entomologist, an artist, an architect –he is an architect–, and with the smell of a chemist who percibes the scent and the bottom stench in human relations… " I wrote this lines for over a decade to celebrate the appearance of the first collection of Nielsen' stories. It was a time of releases of fiction authors, and Burnt Beach seemed a really work of an author, one who works with the truth of his imagination and who, instead of fearing them, admires and cherishes his monstrosity and intelligence to turn them into pieces of the best contemporary literature.» Fogwill ISBN 978-987-1180-32-5 2008 Pages: 128 14 x 21 cm CDD A863 Fiction.

Historia de los intelectuales en América Latina The cultural elites have been major actors in the history of Latin America. However, we did not have a history of the position of men of ideas in the social space, their associations and forms of activity, institutions and fields of intellectual life. Intellectual history in Latin America, the important work directed by Carlos Altamirano, comes to fill this empty space in the Latin American studies.

LA BESTIA EQUILÁTERA Our publishing house gets its name from a novel that was started more than fifteen years ago. Who knows how much longer will it take? Tired of waiting, in autumn of 2006, a group of fans embarrassed the writer by claiming, “first publish, then write.” So they awaited the birth of the mysterious beast publishing books under that pet name in order to keep our old illusion alive: there will always be a wonderful, yet undiscovered, yet untranslated, indeed, yet unfinished, work.

El Carapalida Paleface The end of primary school as experienced with a Gothic undercurrent, the verbal intercourse of parents and teachers, the fugitive babble of students’ dialogues, and a ghost, a splendidly vapid ghost. These forces drive a poignant and vivid narrative, and the cunning realism of the mise en scène — a cornucopia of childhood's toils and gadgets — conceals the novel’s cruel, hallucinatory nostalgia. The year: 1971. In Argentina, the threshold to a harsh, abusive, dark decade. A minor masterpiece. Something quite out of the ordinary.

Caravana With uncommon powers of perception and captivating narrative skills, María Martoccia’s Caravana shows that miracles needn’t be dramatic to have effects. Through distortions and reflections, the three parts of the book —“In England”, “Out of England” and “Without Going Any Farther”— offer different approaches to reality. In each one of the stories lies a solid construction that envelops the event in question, lingering on seemingly superficial or irrelevant concerns. The voice that stealthily narrates these paradoxical adventures is not cynical or disillusioned but rather encouraging and unpredictable, unwilling to forego intelligence even in absurd situations.

Author: JUAN CARLOS DÁVALOS “I should say that I was born in La Montaña, San Lorenzo department, Salta city, Salta province, on January 11th 1887.” “Nothing can explain better my passion when trying to express the spiritual content of my province, than my genealogy and the secular deep way this content is rooted in the families I belong to. My great-grandfather, on my father’s side, was a criollo, son of Basque people, the last Spanish governor in Salta. On my mother’s side, my ancestor is one sister of General Don Martín Miguel de Güemes, who fought for independence. So, after my first years, at the beginning of this century, I found myself surrounded by historic remembrances and antagonism and family emulations.” “My grandfather Dávalos was a man with an austere character and a high culture, born in Salta, who has studied in Charcas. I found at my father’s library some writings, in his own hand. They were selected sayings of the world’s greatest thinkers, even encyclopedists. In his impeccable handwriting, those copybooks contained notes, commentaries, aphorisms, personal opinions.”

En tierras de Magú Pelá Aesthetics and revelations converge in this novel. Tales of adventure and initiation, the author “discloses” to the reader an unknown, amazing and extraordinary region. But he does this stubbornly avoiding any picturesque description: his simple and expressive prose unravels a violent world where white men and natives struggle in the midst of a strange coexistence. The wichis (old mataco people) are registered by the amazed and neat views of a youth who becomes a man in a wild environment.

Author: FEDERICO GAUFFIN “I was born in Metán, Salta province, in November 1887, in the time of the cholera; I guess this is the explanation for my hopeless tendency to “montar el picazo” [get angry]. Due to my parents’ poverty, I started my struggle since I was very young, being taught by the wisest teachers: disgrace and experience.” “I was only 17 years old when my first love affair cost my job, and I decided to travel to Chaco. My arrival coincided with the exodus of settlers of Rivadavia, who 30 years earlier had abandoned the bare plains of that department of Salta in order to go deep into the desserts of the north, by the Pilcomayo River, where they established themselves on the left bank together with their cattle. I witnessed the terrible slaughter of Indians in the hands of white people, and some of the serious combats, where the gauchos boasted of their courage and cruelty.” “I took part in various expeditions to places where no white men have ever been before, and in the suitcase of my memory I gather memories I pretend to revive through my stories”.

Ferrara, Mantua, Milano and Venice shape the notion of a theatre that is closely related to a given political agenda. This book goes deep into the dramatic work of great authors, such as Ludovico Ariosto, and Angelo Beolco, better known as “Il Ruzzante,” who laid the foundations of what we ambiguously call the Italian Comedy.

La colonización de las almas / Misión y conquista en hispanoamérica The colonization of souls / Mission and conquest in Spanish America The evangelizing mission that was carried out during the Spanish conquest in America could be considered as the simple religious legitimation of a military action or a means of protection to native population from the pillage and brutality of the conquistadors. Paradoxically, both opinions, in principle so diverging, with views from different angles, and under the lens of the theologian, anthropologist, or historian, could combine in two affirmations that do not oppose each other. All historical processes are complex and contradictory and as such, should be analyzed from the moment and the place where they began to develop. The debate has gone on for several centuries and perhaps will continue for many more, conforming to the distinct conceptions of the world in which we live.

Cappelletti, one of the principal characters in Libertarian thinking, introduces us, in a clear and concise manner, to the origins of Anarchism, a subject beginning to be studied again by historians and philosophers, granting itself the distinguished role that should have never been lost in the debate of ideas and the conception of the world.

Memorias de una niña rehén (High society) Memories of a child hostage (High society)

A girl is kidnapped but not by police or criminals, but by her own grandparents. With a distant voice that doses wisely pain and a malicious grace turned into verbal invention, the author writes about her childhood. A child who is a fortunate heir. A child to whom everything is given. Everything but love. The mother, “stoned but classy, lying on a canopy bed committing suicide with certain regularity. The rituals of high society, observed by a very sharpen eye, produce to the little girl as much …as a cream cake. Luckily not everything is fake.

Soy sola On My Own Loneliness is one of the most widely spread and less studied phenomena of the last century. There are increasingly more widows and widowers, more single-parent families, more divorcees, more people without a family. Strangely enough, with the increase of loneliness a phobia against this condition also increases. Consequently, prejudice and fear emerge in those who are afraid of it, hide it, and do anything to avoid it. This book does not try to qualify loneliness or analyze it sociologically. It is the simple story of moments that show it every day to loners and mark the difference with those who are accompanied. ISBN 978-987-550-744-9 2007 Pages: 240 Digital / Book CDD 158.2 Self Help

Recovering the early stories that were transmitted from generation to generation, around a fire, in the middle of a meadow, protected in a jungle, in a canoe, or in the warm and comfortable environment of an igloo, yet surrounded by forty degrees below zero, is part of the great task of grasping our own identity. The wise worldview of these people that vibrated in union with nature shows us values that are worth rescuing. In “Legends, Myths Tales and Other Eskimo Stories”, we become acquainted with a culture that rapidly adapted to a rigorous, frozen environment which practically lacks vegetation. The culture of Eskimoes probably began no less than four thousand years ago. Author: NAHUEL SUGOBONO Nahuel Sugobono is a journalist specialized in scientific knowledge dissemination. He studied Anthropology at the University of Buenos Aires. He has collaborated in various research projects and in school weekly publications for children.

These Andean people , were assumed as “Children of the Sun”, and occupied a vast extension of South America. They took full advantage of a wide variety of soils, by cultivating various vegetables in the valley of Cuzco. In the lower lands, they planted coca, the sacred plant of the Andes. They developed important irrigation systems that can still be observed. The Inca culture was based on a strong worldview that reflected their interest for organization and their sense of totality. In 1527, when the Spanish conquerors arrived, this great empire was destroyed. This book includes legends, together with visual graphics, and excellent illustrations on the Incas.

Nowadays Collas live in the northwestern provinces of Argentina: Salta, Catamarca and Jujuy, and other neighboring countries. They descend from Diaguitas, Omaguacas and Apatamas, who have in turn come together with Quechua and Aymara groups coming from Bolivia some time after. In the present day, Collas, together with the Mapuches and Tobas from Chaco, constitute one of the most numerous groups of Argentina. This book also includes the Calchaquíes or Diaguitas, because although in their present location, specially in the province of Tucumán, they are the heirs of the original ethnic group after whom they were named, they also represent one of the many cultures in the Andes.

But love and couple are two realities of different order. While the first is in essence an emotional fact, ups and downs of the spirit and the body; the latter instead, is an attempt to catch in a social scheme the turbulence of the reality. This book is about the complicated bond between love and couples, although the author proposes, “In many cases it does no more than show the divorce that connects both phenomenons”.

La decadencia de los Estados Unidos - De la crisis de 1979 a la megacrisis del 2009 The decline of the United States - From the crisis of 1979 to the megacrisis of 2009 For North American voters, the triumph of the "first Afro American candidate" Barak Obama in the 2008 elections, was a signal that the worst of racial discrimination had been left behind, and ratified that the United States was "the land of the great promise". For the majority of the world what it best showed was an extensive rejection to George W. Bush. As usual, everyone was mistaken. The understanding of a crisis like this within the global context requires comprehensiveness on fluctuations of the domestic and international policies applied by the United States, which although turned into a financial leading nation, was unable to dominate the world through its economic power, and used in its military force instead .

A courageous, learned, and determined woman, her Irish blood is put to the test more than once, both in the large village that Buenos Aires still is at the time and in the brave pampas, where the echo of the Indian raids still reverberates under the light of the great Calfucurá’s star. The young teacher brings with her a whole new education, but is unaware that under the Southern Cross there are other lessons she must learn, in a wild society where rules are written with blood y love codes are quite different from her hometown’s, back in Massachusetts.

MERCEDES SOSA. LA NEGRA "Mercedes Sosa. La Negra" is the ultimate edition of the only biography of Mercedes Sosa to be written on the basis of her own words. When she was 67, Sosa decided to narrate her life. As she was not interested in pretending to be a writer, her biography is a tale told out loud. This is how, for a complex and atypical character, Rodolfo Braceli chose an unusual narrative way. On the one hand, the fine singer’s words form the backbone of this work. On the other, we hear other voices emerging—that of Sosa’s mother and brothers, that of his son and friends.

ÁRBOL DE FAMILIA - Novela This novel is like a tree of intertwining stories, as well as a photo album opening windows to other worlds. Each of these photos, each of these stories, has a value of their own, but at the same time, is an indispensable leaf in the foliage. The family is the great protagonist here. The two main sides, the father’s (the Galician “Terra pai”) and the mother’s (the Castilian “Lengua madre”), mirror from different social backgrounds, and even political inclinations, the fragmented account of the Spanish diaspora, the narrative of e migration since the late 19th century, and also the exile following the Civil War tragedy.

LA SEGUNDA VIDA DE LAS FLORES This is a novel about love and feelings, about how and why men and women look for, avoid, catch, or leave each other throughout their lives. A picture that makes us ponder on the disease of not living, the difficult love meanders, the tyranny of passion, and the irrational attraction for the slippery and unstable. La segunda vida de las flores is not only that, however. It is also a breathless thriller that immerses readers in an intrigue, taking them from one unexpected event to the next until the mystery is solved.

HISTORIA DE UNA BIBLIOTECA - (De Platón a Nietzsche) "Historia de una biblioteca" recalls a personal story and offers an irresistible prospect. The usual answers become blurred, abolished by an unsystematic rigor that, instead of assigning value as judged by a court, contrasts usages, passions, and textures. In few texts does the idea of book become consolidated with that of library and culture as in Abraham’s. Within each of these concepts, a unique and renewed substance allows us to trace the course of Western philosophy and find its articulation joints in the least expected places.

Sobre la violencia revolucionaria - Memorias y olvidos About Revolutionary Violence - Memories and oblivions This book speaks about revolutionary violence in Argentina in the 60s and 70s, and is based on reports of its protagonists, on critics and self-criticism of ex combatants and militants, and on discussions about this topic which took place in Argentina and in exile. The author asserts that this “discourse” about Argentina’s recent past, even when it comes from the State or from human rights organizations, recovers the reasons and myths of revolutionary militancy, and praises the fights and their heroes, but eludes a much needed analysis of responsibilities, methods and consequences. Vezzetti also mantains that this attitude serves only to create stereotypes and to promote an idealized and self-indulgent version of facts.

LEJOS DE DÓNDE FAR FROM NOWHERE January 1945, WW II is drawing to an end: A young woman manages to escape to Geneva through occupied territories. Three years later, she starts a new life in Buenos Aires where she’s haunted by a dark past, and only the innocent questions of her son Federico keep her from leaving it all behind. When Federico becomes an adult, he will close the circle of that hidden life with his own escape which will be an embarrassment for many surprising reasons. Lejos de dónde is a story about Nazi crimes and the hiding of identities to avoid punishment. It is told with great skill, weaving biographies and coincidences that are as categorical as fragile are, for some, the boundaries between good and evil.

LA CULPA REMORSE César, a successful Argentine painter, goes to a coastal town in Brazil where eighteen years before he had stayed with Lucía, a girl half his age. Upon their return to Buenos Aires, they had parted and she had “disappeared” under the military dictatorship. This is a trip of atonement for César who will seek through rites, charming characters and elusive images, to be freed from the guilt that has plagued him since. He wants to cleanse away the hatred and the rage. How can anyone live withholding words that should have been said, and feeling collective cowardice as his own? Dal Masetto writes a profoundly humane story, beautiful in its hardness and remembrance, about remorse, justice and hope. ISBN 978-987-1544-86-8 Pages: 224 21 x 14 cm CDD A863 Fiction
