Product Description

The aim of this edition is to make the poem approachable to those who are coming at Gongora, or Spanish Golden Age poetry, for the first time, and to help them understand and enjoy it. Fusing epic and pastoral, the poem describes a journey through the countryside and contrasts the beauty of nature and of the rural crafts and customs with the vices of court, commercial greed and colonial exploitation. This edition, with its literal verse translation, aims to make the poem available to anyone with a reading knowledge of Spanish, or even without.

Góngora's Soledades and the Problem of Modernity (Monografías A)
Crystal Anne Chemris
Manufacturer: Tamesis Books
ProductGroup: Book
Binding: Hardcover

Book Description

Combining philological rigor with a capacity to engage the most contemporary transatlantic and comparatist concerns, this work situates Luis de Góngora's Soledades within the problematic evolution of Hispanic modernity. As well as offering an insightful analysis of the Soledades as an expression of the Baroque crisis in all its facets -epistemological, ontological, cultural and historical - the author reads the fragmented lyric subject of Gongorist poetics back against Renaissance precursors (Rojas' Celestina and the poetry of Boscán and Garcilaso) and in anticipation of the truncated and isolated subject of modernity. The study concludes with an examination of the interaction between the legacies of Gongorism and French Symbolism in the work of selected poets of the Latin American Vanguard (Gorostiza, Paz and Vallejo). CRYSTAL ANNE CHEMRIS is Visiting Assistant Professor of Spanish at the University of Iowa.

Ideas from an earlier time.......2006-04-06

This novel originally appeared in ASTOUNDING SCIENCE FICTION (a 'pulp' magazine) in 1941 and is very much a product of those times. It is undeniably racist, sexist, extemely nationistic, one of Heinlein's early works, based on another's premise and outline and still it is a great story.

The action begins as an Army major enters a secret research facility hidden in the Rockies. The United States has fallen to the PanAsians, the government and military have been totally destroyed, the population enslaved and the civilization on the way to total destruction. Once in the lab Major Ardmore discovers that most of the scientists and technicians are dead and the remaining few are in shock and that he is now the highest ranking line officer there and perhaps anywhere. He has determined to carry out his orders to prosecute war on the invaders.

Ardmore and his command manage to develop weapons, assess the enemy and begin to rebuild the US Army. Their methods and eventual success (which given the time and the author were never in serious doubt) are the rest of the book. The action is exciting, the characters, while rather one-dimensional and stereotypical still make the reader care about them and, as always with Heinlein, many concepts force the reader to re-examine their own beliefs.

Flaws, are there flaws in this book - absolutely! Women are relegated to secretarial and nursing roles only and few are even mentioned by name. The world is divided into only two races - white and Asian with no mention to blacks, native American or Hispanic. The white/Americans are, with few exceptions, good the Asians, with one exception, are bad. The Americans are culturally, morally and scientifically superior to the Asian invaders who are depicted as brutal and not very bright. There are huge gaps in the story, besides the unmentioned blacks, Native Americans and Hispanics nothing is said about the fate of Europe, Canada, Latin America, Africa or Australia. As far as the 'science' involved, well it's shaky at best.

On the plus side, espeically for Heinlein fans, we see his first use of religion as a framework for organization which will return in STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND and other works. There are also the trademark Heinlein touches of future scientific and cultural developments that are casually tossed into the story. This 1941 story foreshadows the isolation to two competing cultures the Western world and the PanAsian years before the Cold War began for example. Also there are plot devices that will be used in later works, such as a small-band-taking-on-the-massive-enemy that will return in THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST and other stories.

This is definitely a must read for Heinlein fans but is probably not the best place to begin reading his works. Anyone reading this needs to remember when it was written and think of it more like the movie or radio serials popular at the time rather than a more serious work.

Is this the worst Heinlein book ever?.......2004-12-08

Or is Farnham's Freehold the worst? Tough call.

I love Heinlein's work, have read ALL of the stuff that was in print when he died (not so much of the stuff published posthumously); and I absolutely cannot recommend this book. Read anything else by him, anything at all.

(But especially The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, The Door Into Summer, Double Star, Have Spacesuit Will Travel, The Past Thru Tomorrow future history stories, the stories collected in The Fantasies of Robert Heinlein, Time Enough For Love, any of the juvies, etc etc etc)

I read somewhere this isn't even his idea; that Heinlein wrote it from a story outline by (I think) John W Campbell, even though he had reservations about it. Skip this one. Or come back after you've read a bunch of his other work, and can see this in the context of his career.

I have to question the conclusions of some of these readers........2004-08-08

I do not think that Heinlein in any way meant to promote a racist viewpoint. This conclusion comes from a careless reading of the novel and knee jerk reactions to some of the racism presented in the novel.

If anything Heinlein seems to criticizing racism and any subtle government encouragement of racism. Early in the book, one of the characters states,

"But from my standpoint they are simply human beings, who have been duped into the old fallacy of the state as super entity".

The citizens of the PanAsian Empire are not the only ones that have been duped; it is clear that we ourselves our products of deception by our own government. White superiority was encouraged in the forties and to an extent is still encouraged in our minds. Those who think that modern day military men would not speak as the ones in the novels do, are wrong. The majority of people in the US are white; the majority of politicians are white. For politicians. it benefits them to encourage the idea that whites are superior in order to keep them in power. This is why every election year, blacks are reminded that they are victims and can get no where without a white man in office interceding for them.

Finny';s comment on a racial inferiority complex is an astute observation not blantant racism. Just as the white culture sometimes encourages a stifling superiority complex, it has in other cultures, created an inferiority complex , a desire to one up arrogant white people by showing them they are just as good. Much of the focus in the idealogy in the Communist Revolution in China, was on creating a viable alternative to Western culture just as good if not better than Western Culture. They wanted something that was an unique product of Asian will, in no way similar to the culture of arrogant Westerners(a reputation we probaly rightly deserve). This is not mindless racism, but a conclusion reached by examination of modern Asian history.

As reviewers have stated previously, Heinlein's point is that our fears stem not from any different biological differences, but from differences in culture. His other point is that no matter how different a culture, there is always one thing similar in all cultures- that of assumed superiority. The whites and PanAsians in the novel are both guilty of that.

In the end however, the human spirit transcended all races and rose to the occation , for as someone pointed out, the hero was not white, nor was he wholly asian. He was not a champion of any cause held by one race, but was a hero because he adhered to a cause that should be held in high esteem by all...he helped his fellow man regardless of race.

Heinlein's simple message is that racist fear is not productive or rational. It quite simply is stupidity of the highest order.

Just a few other commentaries I have.

I'm surprised that no one mentioned that the hero, Mitsui was married to a black woman. Quite a revolutionary idea for 1941.

That makes me further question how anyone could determine that Heinlein was promoting racism. Do not give in to knee jerk reactions I take it that some of you rather pretend racism does not and never did exist instead of having an open and honest dialogue about it. That is not a solution. That only ensures that racism will grow in our collective concious and rear its ugly head in the future when we have long forgotten about it and the grief and horror it caused.

Another bit of commentary...Heinlein's prediction that Asia would become a major player on the world chess board in the future was a pretty accurate prediction. All Asian countries are rapidly growing, politically, militarily and economically. Though it is far in the future, Asia will one day be able to challenge Western dominance if it continues to proper the way it has been currently.

As for my last commentary, I find Heinlein's reflectioons on the state of US Intelligence to be quite amusing especially in light of recent events. On page 17 of the paperback, Heinlein states," A rediculously inadequate militarry intelligence had been the prime characteristic asa power all through its history.The most powerful nation the globe had ever seen-but it had stumbled into wars like a blind giant."

My how little things change. Heinlein was quite the astute observer of history.

No classic, but a fun read none the less.......2003-12-28

If you're looking for an introduction to Robert A. Heinlein's vast corpus of fantastic science fiction, don't read Sixth Column, read The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. If you're a Heinlein junkie who's read all his other stuff and you want a quick, fun read covering the typical Heinlein themes (the able man, war, gee whiz technology, "long live democracy"), then you'll definitely want to pick up this book.

The basic premise is: the USA has been invaded by "PanAsians," and the government effectively destroyed. Having subjugated India, the "PanAsians" know how to tie down the USA--lots of labor camps, citizen registration and public executions as punishment for any rebellion. But they also have learned not to interfere with their subjects' religion(s). One small military base, a research laboratory, has escaped destruction; luckily the plucky soldiers have an able commander and lots of technology the invaders simply can't match.

From there, it's just a matter of time. The reader gets to watch how these men build a movement, screw with the "PanAsian" leadership, and eventually free the USA. Of course the technology is hokey and the dialog can be a bit offensive, but it's realistic (yeah, I think slurs are allowable if they're marching your family off to the labor camps). This book was written in 1949 and reflects some of the paranoia that Heinlein later gave voice to in Expanded Universe.

But, it's a fun, quick read and if you like Heinlein, you'll probably like it. It's no classic, but not every book can be.

Sixth Column.......2003-06-25

Way ahead of its' time! The author uses a vivid imagination to provide us with hope and new technologies when the US is taken over by a foreign power and is occupied.

This is a must read for lovers of classic sifi

Also known as "Sixth Column".......2004-01-07

This novel is now in print with it's original title of "Sixth Column", but I don't think the text has changed. What I remember from my readings over the years is that RAH cleaned up the story, and reduced much of the racism present in the original concept developed by Campbell.

Overall, an excellent novel with good characterizations, and a (then) plausible presentation of an implausible invention to save the nation's bacon.

Standard early Heinlein fare.......2000-12-10

This story of life and rebellion in post-nuclear America is driven by an entertaining and fast-moving plot. It contains many of Heinlein's favorite themes: religion, mass psychology, indefatigable American optimism and ingenuity in the face of adversity and oppression. Not to mention the usual undertones of sexism and racism. Recommended for Heinlein fans who can't get enough from this flawed, but undeniably masterful, storyteller.

It's the Bomb!.......2000-08-01

Heinlein whisks up some very disturbing post-apocalyptic dessert in this book depicting the rapid unravelling of society immediately following The Nuclear War ("glory be to the bomb"). The Baby Boomers who spent their development beneath the protective umbrella of the Big Boomers know the dread of impending Doomsday. Heinlein finely exploits the overt and innate fears the bomb instills in all who have the understanding of its true god-like power. All this in the context of a fast-paced adventure. Excellent read.

Navee is assigned a mission by Wake to investigate the steam-punk world of planet TRI-JJ 68. It¹s a glacial planet that had been inhabited by a nature-communing, peaceful lot that Wake simply passed over as unworthy. But in a recent pass, they discover that suddenly a whole civilization has sprouted and reached up to its industrial age, and this in record time! Wake is now intrigued and so is Navee, as these new inhabitants closely resemble the race of which, up until now, she had been the only representative: humans! Has she found her own people?

Satisfied........2006-08-05

This isn't the best book in the series, but it is an interesting story none the less. I enjoy the Wake saga and the heroine, Navee.

Finally, Another Human!.......2004-07-08

Navee, the lone human amongst the countless aliens of Wake, has been offered a new assignment. She is to investigate a civilization that has sprung up much too quickly on an alien world. There is also evidence of some form of massive underground installation that may hold the answers. The natives are the closest thing to human found so far.

Navee disguises herself as a local and quickly joins with a local revolutionary. The current government is seen as oppressive and overly-controlling. Now a revolution is just starting to enter into action.

Navee's involvement is full of action as the pair make their way through security checks and into the wilderness where the installation is hidden. Along the way Navee discovers many truths about the planet and her companion. There is even a human present at the installation.

If you don't get home until six or later and still need to get dinner on the table, this is the book for you. The Vegetarian 5-Ingredient Gourmet pares down ingredients to their simplest and most flavorful form. "Keeping things simple takes the frantic quality--and pressure--out of preparing a meal," says author Nava Atlas. "Simplifying helps you to slow down and enjoy the process of cooking."

Atlas devotes a whole chapter to tofu and soy products, including seitan and packaged products like soy "hot dogs" and "sausage." She also has a chapter on "Rudimentary Wraps," which includes recipes for Avocado and Ricotta Soft Tacos, Goat Cheese and Red Pepper Wraps, and the ever popular Black Bean Burrito (spice them with green chiles). Pasta is a quick and easy favorite. Keep jarred sauce on hand and you have the beginnings of Pasta with Triple Red Sauce or Pasta with Olive Sauce. Serve veggie burgers on whole-grain buns with a side of Creamy Coleslaw or Baked Barbecued Tofu and Potato Kebabs for an easy weeknight meal. Or try Asian Sesame-Soy Noodles paired with Broccoli and Tofu in Peanut Sauce.

Every recipe includes a nutritional breakdown including calories, fat, protein, carbohydrates, cholesterol, and sodium. Nearly every recipe has suggestions for what to pair the dish with and on what page to find it. This is an especially handy cookbook for time-crunched families. The food is easy, quick, healthy, and doesn't require great concentration to prepare. --Dana Van Nest

my current favorite.......2007-05-17

I love this book! I have had it for a couple of months now and use it 3-4 times a week, no repeats yet, and I have liked everything I made! My meat-loving husband has liked everything too and that's saying something. True, everything is very simple and you are not going to get complex, truly "gourmet" flavors from these recipes. But if you are like me (someone who loves to eat, but finds cooking boring unless I am in the mood) this book is perfect--everything is really easy, quick, cheap (only 5 ingredients!) and also very colorful and so very visually appealing-- for simple, healthy everyday food I don't think you can really ask for more. You could also easily add in ingredients to make the recipes more interesting-- I have done this successfully several times. I also really like the menu suggestions since I don't always like thinking of what foods go with what.

Love it.......2007-05-11

After I decided to start eating vegetarian I noticed I was replacing meat with cheese far too often. This book has helped me embrace vegetarianism and cook great meals, that are easy and tasty. I recommend it to anyone who is looking for great day to day meals that aren't overly complicated.

Excellent Resource for Busy Cooks.......2007-02-28

My well-worn, dog-eared copy of this book still sits in its place of honor atop the microwave whenever I need something quick and simple to prepare. Of course, the recipes are basic (some so much so that they can hardly be construed as recipes at all) but most are perfect for those many nights when you're hungry and out of ideas. It's also a great reference for simple side dishes that are easy substitutions for the same old boring steamed broccoli or boxed rice pilaf.

As much as I love this book, I do think that "gourmet" is a bit of a stretch. My biggest complaint is that several of the recipes are simply recycled into new ones; for example, a recipe for "Black Bean Burritos" calls for 6 flour tortillas and "1 recipe Green Chili Black Beans." This seems a bit unneccessary to me; why not just put a note in the recipe for Green Chili Black Beans that they are also mighty tasty in a tortilla? I also think the "Fundamental Fruits" section is a bit lacking, as all it really contains are a few fruit salad combos, a couple of smoothies, and some uber-basic baked apple and pear recipes.

Despite its flaws, there are several recipes here that have become staples in my house and several others that I refer back to when I want something a bit different. Among my favorites: Sweet Potato Quesadillas; Spinach Rice; Split Pea & Barley Soup; Chickpea Salad with Roasted Peppers; Egg-Dipped Cauliflower; Quinoa, Broccoli and Cheese Casserole; and Spanish Potato Fritatta, among others. Even if you, like me, are an accomplished cook, you can probably find plenty of ideas in here that hadn't occurred to you before. I recommend this to anyone who is pressed for time and tired of takeout.

This was for my sister but i looked in it. It had some weird stuff in it but its super healthy, which is what my sister wanted...so all is good

I have two teenagers: one vegetarian, one omnivore. I refuse to cook two separate meals, so I need recipes the whole family can enjoy. This cookbook is easy to use. The ingredients are readily available at any mainstream grocery store. I can get home from work and have dinner on the table in 30 minutes. Really.
