In this book you will find a distribution of poetry in Spanish and English. This is because I preserve and respect my two cultures with which I grew up. I grew up in Las Californias, to be exact on the border between San Diego and Tijuana. So I grew up with both American and Mexican cultures. In this way the poems in English have no translation into Spanish with those of Spanish. I decided to do it this way to preserve the language in which I wrote the poems. You will find poems of a man who is amazed by what surrounds him, nature, the passing of everyday life. Tormented by the time that vanishes from his hands, but has managed to discover himself in his poems. You will find poems dedicated to a muse that accompanied me for a long trip of my life, thank you Morena. I also thank the people who went through my life and from those ephemeral moments I managed to write these paragraphs. En este libro encontrarán un reparto de poesía en español y en inglés. Esto se debe a que conservo y respeto mis dos culturas con las cuales yo crecí. Crecí en Las Californias, para ser exacto en la frontera entre San Diego y Tijuana. De modo que crecí con las dos culturas Americana y Mexicana. De ese modo los poemas en inglés no tienen traducción al viseversa con los de español. Decidi hacerlo asi para conservar la lengua en el cual escribí los poemas. Encontrarán poemas de un hombre maravillado por lo que lo rodea, la naturaleza, el transcurrir de la vida cotidiana. Atormentado por el tiempo que se le esfuma de las manos, pero que a logrado descubrirse en sus poemas. Encontrarán poemas dedicados a una musa que me acompañó por un largo viaje de mi vida, gracias Morena. También agradezco a las personas que se atravesaron por mi vida y de esos momentos efímeros logre escribir estos párrafos.

This book maps the field of seventeenth-century women's writing in Spanish, English, and French and situates the work of Sor Juana more clearly within that field. It holds up the multi-layered, proto-feminist writings of Sor Juana as a meaningful lens through which to focus the literary production of her female contemporaries. Merrim's book advances the integration of Hispanic women authors and women's issues into the panorama of early modern women's writing and opens up unexplored commonalities between Sor Juana and her sister writers. Early modern women writers whose works are explored include Marie de Gournay, Margaret Fell Fox, Catalina de Erauso, Maria de Zayas, Ana Caro, Mme de Lafayette, Anne Bradstreet, St. Teresa, and Margaret Lucas Cavendish. Merrim's study provides a full-bodied picture of the resources that the cultural and historical climates of the seventeenth century placed at the disposal of women writers, the manners in which women writers instrumentalized them, the building blocks and concerns of early modern women's writing, and the continuities between early modern and modern women's writing. Written in an engaging, clear manner, this innovative study will be of interest not only to Hispanists but also to scholars in early modern studies, women's studies, history, and comparative literature.

Island in the Light / Isla en la luz is a fascinating and insightful compilation that pairs contemporary Cuban visual art and literature by having 30 prominent writers respond to the works of 35 renowned artists. Contemporary Cuban art, literature, and music come together in Island in the Light / Isla en la luz. This bilingual compilation of the work of 35 artists and 30 writers began by selecting artwork by renowned artists and asking prominent writers to create original stories, poems, or essays in response.

In this book of 69 poems, divided into four chapters, I wanted to burrow deep into my soul, through a process of the self-examination of my masculine psyche, my political consciousness and world views--shaped and mortised by my almost two decades long confinement on Pennsylvania's Death Row. The reader is given a front seat on a fast-moving train fleeting through the disconcerted lives of the women in Afghanistan, Death Row, a misguided young black juvenile's dreams, a frustrated would-be actress driven to murder, a bi-racial teen's suicide, my own crack-addicted sister's tortured life--and the tragic events of September 11, 2001, which shocked the consciousness of the nation and the world. Inside My Head is not just another glimpse of the topography of my mind--but raw testimony for readers far beyond these prison walls.

Called by her contemporaries the "Tenth Muse," Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1648–1695) has continued to stir both popular and scholarly imaginations. While generations of Mexican schoolchildren have memorized her satirical verses, only since the 1970s has her writing received consistent scholarly attention., focused on complexities of female authorship in the political, religious, and intellectual context of colonial New Spain. This volume examines those areas of scholarship that illuminate her work, including her status as an iconic figure in Latin American and Baroque letters, popular culture in Mexico and the United States, and feminism. By addressing the multiple frameworks through which to read her work, this research guide serves as a useful resource for scholars and students of the Baroque in Europe and Latin America, colonial Novohispanic religious institutions, and women’s and gender studies. The chapters are distributed across four sections that deal broadly with different aspects of Sor Juana's life and work: institutional contexts (political, economic, religious, intellectual, and legal); reception history; literary genres; and directions for future research. Each section is designed to provide the reader with a clear understanding of the current state of the research on those topics and the academic debates within each field.
