Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Vistas al lazareto: en esta frase podría cifrarse la relación de la literatura con la diferencia que supone la discapacidad. Una mirada distante, indiscreta, hiriente, tan ávida como incómoda, que escruta el interior del lazareto ?el espacio metafórico donde se ha encerrado la anomalía humana que para el canon director incorpora la dilatada nómina de quienes portan diferencias en el cuerpo o en el alma? y de la que se levantan minuciosos testimonios de parte que nutren, por vía de rechazo, el patrón de normalidad. Lo anómalo confirma el canon humano, la medida de todas las cosas, que solo puede imponerse siempre que se reconozca y se recree en la diferencia. La discapacidad no como espejo en que nos miramos para distinguirnos, sino como espejo invertido que no solo se limita a devolvernos nuestra imagen, sino que, en su especular juego, la crea. En La pierna perdida del capitán Ahab (Antología de relatos de la diferencia), se reúnen más de veinte narraciones de autores de los últimos siglos que posaron su mirada sobre la discapacidad, un factor y un límite de la experiencia que constituye tanto como impugna nuestra identidad. Un puñado de tarjetas de visita de un mundo raro que es y no es el nuestro. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Davis, Eugene Debbs, W. E. B. DuBois, Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, Elisabeth Gilman, et al. The I.C.P.P. was established in 1924 to agitate for the release of and raise funds for political prisoners around the world. "An impetus to the committee's formation was the imprisonment of Menshevists, Social Revolutionaries, Maximalists, Anarchists, and other dissenters in the U.S.S.R. Consequently, the committee's first major effort was the publication of LETTERS FROM RUSSIAN PRISONS in 1925. This book profiled imprisoned revolutionaries, and its criticism of the Soviet government generated controversy in leftist circles."-from the website of the New York Public Library. 8vo black pebble-cloth boards stamped in gilt and ruled on front in blind; top edge red; illustrated with photographs of original documents & letters; 317 pages.
