About this listen
Este volumen reúne los ensayos, La enfermedad y sus metáforas y El sida y sus metáforas, que siguen ejerciendo una influencia enorme en la reflexión médica y en las vidas de miles de pacientes y cuidadores.
Susan Sontag escribió La enfermedad y sus metáforas en 1978, mientras se trataba de un cáncer. En el libro quiso demostrar cómo los mitos acerca de algunas enfermedades, en especial del cáncer, añaden más dolor al sufrimiento de los pacientes y a menudo los cohíben en la búsqueda de tratamiento adecuado.
Casi una década después, con la irrupción de una nueva enfermedad estigmatizada y transida de incertidumbres y «fantasías punitivas», Sontag escribió El sida y sus metáforas, extendiendo los argumentos del libro anterior a la pandemia de sida.
Reseña:
«Un ensayo luminoso.»
Cristina Peri Rossi

Veinticinco años después de Sobre la fotografía, Susan Sontag regresó al estudio de la representación visual de la guerra y la violencia. ¿Cómo nos afecta el espectáculo del sufrimiento ajeno? ¿Nos hemos acostumbrado a la crueldad? Para ello, la autora examina la serie de Goya Los desastres de la guerra, las fotografías de la guerra civil estadounidense y de los campos de concentración nazis, y las horribles imágenes contemporáneas de Bosnia, Sierra Leona, Ruanda, Israel y Palestina, así como de la ciudad de Nueva York el 11 de septiembre de 2001.

En 1876, un grupo de polacos liderado por Maryna Zalezowska, la mayor actriz de Polonia, emigra a Estados Unidos y llega hasta California para fundar una «comuna utópica». La comuna termina por disolverse, Maryna se queda en el país, aprende inglés y ahora—con el nombre de Marina Zalenska—se forja una nueva carrera, incluso más triunfante, en los escenarios americanos, hasta convertirse en una diva comparable a Sara Bernhardt.

En Memoria de chica, Annie Ernaux se sumerge en el verano de 1958, el de su primera noche con un hombre, en la colonia de S, en el Orne. Una noche que le iba a le dejar una marca indeleble, que iba a perseguirla durante años. Hasta la valiente decisión de reconstruirla escribiéndola, ayudada por fotografías y cartas recuperadas, sumida en una búsqueda: la de sus antiguos amigos y amigas, la de Él, ese primer hombre, pero sobre todo la de sí misma, aquella Annie que tanto le cuesta entender a la Annie actual, en un vaivén implacable entre el ayer y el hoy.

Estamos perdiendo nuestra capacidad de no hacer nada. Nuestra existencia está completamente absorbida por la actividad y, por lo tanto, completamente explotada. Dado que solo percibimos la vida en términos de rendimiento, tendemos a entender la inactividad como un déficit, una negación o una mera ausencia de actividad cuando se trata, muy al contrario, de una interesante capacidad independiente.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

The 10 enlightening (and often humorous) lectures of Medieval Myths and Mysteries will show you how far from the “dark” times of legend these centuries were. Uncover the facts about the Knights Templar. Reveal the truth behind the tales of legendary creatures like the Questing Beast and the unicorn. Trace the events of the Black Death and the ways it altered the world in its wake, and much more. With Professor Armstrong, you will dig deep into the ways that later generations reshaped the narrative of the medieval years and perpetuated the myths.

Excelente Narradora Valentina Latyna
