Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Celeste

I was born into the family of William Julius and Emilie (Baudat) Gayle on August 30, 1919 They decided to name me Luella Celestine for my two grandmothers...Luella Love (Sanders) Gayle and Celestine (Pichon) Baudat. I did not like the name and was very happy that they decided to call me “Celeste.” At the time of my birth, my brother Milton was almost two, having been born September 2, 1917. Unfortunately, he died with Diphtheria on December 11, 1921, when I was only two. Mom and Dad had previously lost a son, Dalton, who died April 13, 1915 at the age of 16 months. He was born December 8, 1913. I was born in my parents’ home on Melton Street in Magnolia, Texas. The house was demolished in 1988. Ty (grandson) came over and told me about it and he thought it was terrible that they were tearing down a landmark where his grandmother was born. Mom was very proud of her little home as evidenced by notes she had written on the back of pictures she had taken to send to her friends and relatives. My Dad was depot agent and telegrapher for the Missouri Pacific Railroad at the time of my birth, and retired in that position. He was truly a “railroad man” and couldn’t stay in the house when he heard a train whistle.

Genghis Khan Y El Inicio del Mundo Moderno

Libro Genghis Khan Y El Inicio del Mundo Moderno

The startling true history of how one extraordinary man from a remote corner of the world created an empire that led the world into the modern age. The Mongol army led by Genghis Khan subjugated more land and people in twenty-five years than the Romans did in four hundred. In nearly every country the Mongols conquered, they brought an unprecedented rise in cultural communication, expanded trade, and a blossoming of civilization. Vastly more progressive than his European or Asian counterparts, Genghis Khan abolished torture, granted universal religious freedom, and smashed feudal systems of...

La Vida de Lazarillo de Tormes Y de Sus Fortunas Y Adversidades

Libro La Vida de Lazarillo de Tormes Y de Sus Fortunas Y Adversidades

First published in 1554, Lazarillo de Tormes was destined to beget a whole new genre, the so-called picaresque novel. Its great popularity may be attributed largely to its daring autobiographical form, which allows the reader to observe the magnificent, conquering Spain of Charles the Fifth through the inner consciousness of a humble figure called Lazarus, whose name, perhaps, comes from the poor leper mentioned in the Gospels. The Lazarillo is the first literary expression of a feeling basic to the very existence of the Spanish people, especially since the fifteenth century: they were what...

Nebulosas planetarias: la hermosa muerte de las estrellas

Libro Nebulosas planetarias: la hermosa muerte de las estrellas

La misteriosa y discreta visita que realizó Antonin Artaud a nuestro país en 1936 devino tema de culto y en reto para los estudiosos que cada tanto reviven la esperanza de desenterrar documentos inéditos o dar con testimonios desconocidos. Fabienne Bradu reconstruye la conversación epistolar entre el poeta guatemalteco Luis Cardoza y Aragón y Paule Thévenin, quien fue editora para Gallimard de las obras completas de Artaud. Las cartas arman un espejo en el que se puede apreciar, entre otros temas, el contexto de la presencia del artista francés en nuestro país.
