    Si pour dépasser le statut de science molle et rendre compte du fonctionnement des organisations, des transformations des rapports sociaux, la sociologie a dû proposer des concepts et des méthodes. À d'autres occasions, elle a su montrer l'heuristique de la transgression disciplinaire dans l'analyse des oeuvres et des pratiques humaines. Prenant l'exemple de la sociologie des sciences, il est aisé de constater combien le croisement avec la sémiotique ou sémiologie a permis des avancées probantes dans la modélisation des actes d'énonciation qu'il s'agisse des discours visuels -articles, publicité, textes littéraires- ou de l'analyse des techniques de production de l'imagerie contemporaine. Pour autant, en sociologie des arts et de la culture, le recours à la sémiotique dans l'analyse du signe plastique et du signe iconique reste marginal. L'effectuation de ce croisement nous semble pourtant fécond. C'est pourquoi, dans cet ouvrage nous établissons le lien entre contemporanéité visuelle et sémiologie et nous convions le lecteu.r.trice. à penser le dépassement des frontières disciplinaires à la recherche de l'or caché qu'est le signifié contenu dans la création visuelle produite dans les Caraïbes-Amériques; en d'autres termes faisons parler le signe plastique.

Juanita wanted to be of help, so she always cooked for her family her favorite meal, tortillas. At night, when the sun cleared the way for the moon to shine bright, Juanita would run onto the roof of the house for her nighttime routine: counting stars. The sky was so clear she could almost touch it.But one day, Juanita's mom became very ill, and she couldn't work at her loom. Juanita wanted to help but didn't know how to. It appears the sky had been listening to her all the time and had a big surprise stored for her...La mágica historia de una niña de Guatemala a la que le encantaba cocinar tortitas de maíz y contar estrellas cada noche.Juanita vivía en Santa Catarina Palopó, un pueblito encantador junto a un hermoso lago, rodeado por tres enormes volcanes.

    Diese Studie nimmt den Straftatbestand des Feminizids im lateinamerikanischen Kontext in Romanen von Diego Zúñiga (Chile, 2015), Laura Restrepo (Kolumbien, 2018) und Fernanda Melchor (Mexiko, 2017) in den Blick. Es wird gezeigt, wie die literarischen Texte die systemische und intersektionale Dimension des Feminizids beleuchten. Dabei wird deutlich, dass Feminizid interdisziplinär untersucht werden muss, um die Begrenzungen völker- und strafrechtlicher Normen aufzuzeigen. Feminizid ist nur im Strafrecht lateinamerikanischer Staaten verankert. Dieses Alleinstellungsmerkmal wird von den literarischen Texten aufgegriffen, die in der Studie in ihren Verbindungen zu einschlägigen Rechtstexten analysiert werden. Die Studie versteht Literatur als eigene Erkenntnisform, die eine Korrekturforderung für den gesellschaftlichen und juristischen Umgang mit Feminiziden über Lateinamerika hinaus beinhaltet und dabei insbesondere deren Straflosigkeit markiert. Sie leistet dabei einen Beitrag zur interdisziplinären Feminizidforschung, die gerade im deutschsprachigen Raum noch ganz am Anfang steht.

    "Winged beings are meant to be free. And so are artists, but the Cuban government has criminalized any art that doesn't meet their approval. Soleida and her parents protest this injustice with their secret sculpture garden of chained birds. Then a hurricane exposes the illegal art, and her parents are arrested. Soleida escapes to Central America alone, joining the thousands of Cuban refugees stranded in Costa Rica while seeking asylum elsewhere. There she meets Dariel, a Cuban American boy whose enigmatic music enchants birds and animals-and Soleida. Together they work to protect the environment and bring attention to the imprisoned artists in Cuba. Soon they discover that love isn't about falling-it's about soaring together to new heights. But wings can be fragile, and Soleida and Dariel come from different worlds. They are fighting for a better future-and the chance to be together"--

    "In 2024, and in a degraded institutional framework, Mexico will have the largest election in its history: it will elect a new president, renew Congress and nine governors will be elected, as well as thousands of municipal presidents and local legislators. That election will be the battlefield between the return to the past that AMLO has promoted - the dinosaur disguised in democratic clothes - and the push towards the future by a society convinced of the usefulness of democratic values and the transformation of structures political, economic and social; a battle whose outcome will determine the future of generations to come. Macario Schettino reminds us that, in times of uncertainty, societies usually choose tradition, the known, the values that, despite their obsolescence, give certainty to a confused society. But a society closed in on itself only serves a model that has previously failed. The disguised dinosaur poses the problem and the solution for Mexico: if we want a true transformation, it must break with the past of official history. It is not impossible: we had managed to make progress in the last quarter of a century. It is about getting back on track in economic and, above all, social issues. The decision is ours. The consequences will be experienced by future generations."--Provided by publisher.

    After committing an irreparable crime, the narrator of The Emperor waits in his bedroom for the police to arrest him. His past reverberates inside of him like a drum: his youth spent in captivity as a zonbi, under the control of a charlatan Vodou leader, and many an alienating dawn delivering the daily newspaper through the cutthroat neighborhoods of Port-au-Prince, Haiti. He now has blood on his hands because of the woman on the bus--the only woman he had ever loved.

    "A hybrid book-length poem in which the protagonist grapples with a great loss. In this hybrid of lyric poetry and essay, Consuelo Wise utilizes repetition, fragmentation, and syntax to construct a form that repeatedly falls apart. Breaks in lines and fragmented stanzas are followed by accumulative rushes, slashes, brackets, and words pushed together. Throughout this book-length poem, Wise composes a meditation and an investigation into loss and identity. Moving between sound and image, aggression and subtlety, b o y pries open memories that resist understanding but also refuse to be forgotten. Wise peels back layers of mourning, considering how it can be experienced as a personal, inherited, environmental, social, and historical phenomenon. Throughout, the protagonist in b o y reenvisions ways to process a great loss, listening closely and searching for words while "the earth is shaking and the silence is pressing down." "--
