【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Santa Anna: Una biograf?a para gente ocupada【電子書籍】[ Gustavo Vazquez-Lozano ]

＜p＞?Es Santa Anna el traidor m?s grande de la historia de M?xico o un chivo expiatario por los errores de toda una generaci?n? ?Por qu? cuando ?l viv?a no hubo pol?tico o general m?s amado, necesario y c?lebre en M?xico que el General Santa Anna? Justo Sierra, el eminente escritor e historiador que lo observ? en persona siendo un ni?o, escribi? que las masas llegaron a verlo como un mesi?as, "el pueblo ten?a una vaga confianza de que ?l podi?a hacer milagros"; Sierra escribi? que Santa Anna era "el hombre necesario, el hombre de las crisis, nuestro deus ex machina". Las clases pol?ticas que primero se alzaban contra ?l y lo enviaban al exilio, un par de a?os despu?s iban a buscarlo a suplicarle que salvara M?xico, cuando la naci?n se les deshac?a entre las manos. Santa Anna regresaba a su pa?s, seduc?a, un?a a la gente, formaba ej?rcitos de la nada para combatir la nueva amenaza que aleteara sobre el pa?s: Espa?a, Estados Unidos, Francia.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Fue presidente once veces (un triunfo inigualado en la historia) pero no fue un dictador en el sentido tradicional de la palabra, porque ーjuntando sus once periodosー estuvo sentado en la silla no m?s de cinco a?os. Mucho menos que Benito Ju?rez, otro dictador. Pero a diferencia de Ju?rez, a Santa Anna, el poder le aburr?a. Prefer?a, como Alejandro o Napole?n, ir ?l mismo al frente de los ej?rcitos, arriesgar la vida, poner el pecho frente a las balas, volver cubierto de gloria o morir en el campo de batalla. Sin duda, Santa Anna merece un juicio m?s objetivo que el de la historia oficial. Por sus pecados pag?, en parte viviendo demasiado tiempo, hasta el punto de que, en su ?ltimo regreso a Veracruz, siendo ya un anciano, nadie lo reconoci?, nadie fue a recibirlo. El mundo hab?a cambiado.＜/p＞ ＜p＞?sta es una biograf?a breve ーpara gente ocupadaー de Antonio L?pez de Santa Anna, uno de los mexicanos m?s extraordinarios e influyentes del siglo XIX.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Museum of Lies【電子書籍】[ J. Timothy Hunt ]

＜p＞Cary Scott's remarkable life story of spectacular good fortune, mixed with soul-crushing abuse, is frankly unbelievable. Even to Cary himself. In a series of disturbing, unfiltered monologues, Cary unburdens himself of his memories -- of being raised by a psychopathic single mother who was abandoned by her gay husband, of becoming the target of a pedophile, of becoming morbidly obese, followed by quack treatments that boomerang him alarmingly into anorexia. Cary recalls being a bullied gay teenager who literally crucifies himself with a hammer and nails to get out of gym class. From a psych ward, he finds himself instantly famous after an unintentionally homoerotic poem he wrote for a high school assignment finds its way to becoming the #1 pop song in the nation. In the years that follow, Cary's life nosedives again and again, yet he always finds himself rescued by bizarre deus-ex-machina occurrences. All these tales, however, are placed into doubt after his former therapist is accused in the media of implanting false memories in patients. Cary is labeled a pathological liar in a national magazine cover story. Refusing to believe that his exceptional life never actually happened, Cary creates a grotesque, secret, museum to himself filled with artefacts of atrocities and miracles which prove that his memories are true - but is it only a museum of lies?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】O Processo de Securitiza??o das Rela??es Econ?micas Sino-Americanas na Administra??o Trump (2017-2021): Reflex?es Sobre a Competi??o Com a China na Estrat?gia de Seguran?a Nacional dos Estados Unidos【電子書籍】

＜p＞De que forma a narrativa entre Estados Unidos e China ganha espa?o nos debates internacionais? Quando os Estados Unidos deixam de exercer sua preponder?ncia militar e econ?mica unilateral no contexto internacional? De que forma a disputa entre Estados Unidos e China passa para o n?vel de seguran?a? Esses s?o alguns dos questionamentos que esta obra buscou compreender, fruto de uma pesquisa que analisou os discursos proferidos pelo ex-presidente norte-americano Donald Trump contra a China no per?odo de 2017 a 2021. Para isso, buscamos, em primeiro lugar, compreender a rela??o bilateral entre Estados Unidos e China a partir da perspectiva hist?rica, passando pelo governo Richard Nixon e sua diplomacia triangular, desenvolvida por Henry Kissinger. Em seguida, abordamos o conceito de securitiza??o com a finalidade de entendermos a perspectiva econ?mica das rela??es sino-americanas, bem como evidenciando como a pandemia de Covid-19 foi essencial para a constru??o de uma China inimiga. Por fim, aplicamos a An?lise de Discurso como m?todo para identificar os significantes flutuantes acionados pelo ex-presidente Trump por meio das suas pr?ticas articulat?rias. O resultado foi intrigante: apesar do ?xito narrativo contra a China, o padr?o comercial entre os dois pa?ses se manteve relativamente inalterado. Entre os termos mais citados por Trump se destacam American, economic e unfair, o que contribuiu para o acionamento de significados hist?ricos de constru??o da pr?pria nacionalidade norte-americana.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Essays: Triologue: Kepler, Twain, Lewis【電子書籍】[ S. Dorman ]

＜p＞The Essays are comprised in four sections. The first is "Neophyte Papers." These essays were written in the mid 1980s when I began thinking about CS Lewis on paper in my limited way. The second section, "Familiarizing Papers," contains essays written for the course in humanities. This got me thinking of a dialogue, here called a Triologue, between Johannes Kepler, CS Lewis, and Mark Twain. The fourth section is called "Commentary," including a piece on fictionalizing Lewis, written after the fact of the novel and published in Mythprint #341. Other essays in this section include thoughts on the culture and craft relevant to the fictive works under our purview. One such, "Deus ex Machina Reversed" was published at Mere Orthodoxy. The third section, "The Triologue," is devoted to essays written specifically for the thesis paper--and its project which ultimately extrapolated into the Travelogue. The hope to produce Fantastic Travelogue: Mark Twain and CS Lewis Talk Things over in The Hereafter was itself the raison d'?tre for the thesis paper.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Singing of Arms and Men Florence and the Balletto a Cavallo in the Seventeenth Century【電子書籍】[ Kelley Harness ]

＜p＞Equestrian ballets (＜em＞balletti a cavallo＜/em＞), although little known today, emerged as valued dramatic entertainments in early modern Europe, capable of demonstrating the wealth and magnificence of the patrons who commissioned them as well as the horsemanship and military skills of the noblemen who rode in them. Although the horse ballet did not originate in Florence, that city--and its ruling grand dukes, the Medici--acquired a reputation for excellence in the genre. Between 1608 and 1686, the court commissioned horse ballets to commemorate important state events such as Medici weddings or visits by foreign visitors. In ＜em＞Singing of Arms and Men＜/em＞, author Kelley Harness undertakes the first comprehensive study of the seventeenth-century Florentine horse ballets. She demonstrates how these works communicated messages relevant to the occasions for which they were performed, delivered by means of texts sung in styles similar to contemporary opera and punctuated by choreography and dramatic structure. Mock battles fought with swords and pistols animated audiences but also provided visible instances of conflict, which were then interrupted by the sudden arrival of a ＜em＞deus ex machina＜/em＞, who commanded the combatants to instead join forces to defeat a common enemy. The knights then demonstrated newfound cooperation through their creation of choreographed figures danced on horseback in time to music. Documentary evidence confirms that the Medici family expended significant financial and human resources on these one-time events, revealing just how much work it took to appear effortless. Ultimately, Harness shows how the ＜em＞balletto a cavallo＜/em＞ played a crucial role in Medici self-fashioning during the period, and that the 250 noblemen invited to lend their equestrian skills both confirmed their family's relationship to the Medici and were provided a venue for demonstrating critical markers of masculine nobility.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞The Green Odyssey is an adventure story, involving an astronaut named Alan Green stranded on a primitive planet, where he is claimed as a gigolo by a duchess and is married to a slave woman. Upon hearing of two other stranded astronauts, he escapes from the duchess, and sets sail to find them. However, because of the peculiar geography of the planet, there is a vast expansive plain, instead of an ocean to cross. Green uses a ship equipped with large rolling pin-like wheels along the bottom to traverse the plains of this world. After his escape from the duchess he is followed by his slave woman wife and her children (one is his). There follow several fairly standard adventure plots with cannibals, pirates, floating islands (that turn out to be giant lawnmowers), and the deus ex machina, a female black cat named Lady Luck.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
