Así Mis Versos...
Author: Octavio P. Rez-Beato
Publisher: Palibrio
ISBN: 1463323573
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 87
Book Description
La lectura de estos poemas, va llevando al lector por la secuencia de emociones que surcaron y, aún surcan, la vida del autor. Como él expresa, es el recuento de una vida que transcurre como cualquier otra, pero las palabras no son suficientes para expresar la esencia misma de los sentimientos. Lo que hace atrayente a este poemario, es la diversidad de giros lingüísticos, acompañados de una profunda intensidad de expresión. Las distintas emociones, pronunciadas con sensible armonía, giran alrededor de un especial uso de la métrica y la rima, proyectando una aureola de lectura atractiva, la cual lleva al lector en ligero viaje literario, de suave musicalidad y profundidad expresiva.

The Day of the Dead
Author: Shawn D. Haley
Publisher: Berghahn Books
ISBN: 9781845450830
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
The Day of the Dead is the most important annual celebration in Oaxaca, Mexico. Skillfully combining textual information and photographic imagery, this book begins with a discussion of the people of Oaxaca, their way of life, and their way of looking at the world. It then takes the reader through the celebration from the preparations that can begin months in advance through to the private gatherings in homes and finally to the cemetery where the villagers celebrate together -- both the living and the dead. The voices in the book are of those people who have participated in the Day of the Dead for as long as they can remember. There are no ghosts here. Only the souls of loved ones who have gone to the Village of the Dead and who are allowed to return once a year to be with their family. Very readable and beautifully illustrated, this book provides an extensive discussion of the people of Oaxaca, their way of life and their beliefs, which make the Day of the Dead logical and easily comprehensible.

Restoration of Tropical Forest Ecosystems
Author: Helmut Lieth
Publisher: Springer
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 522
Book Description
The destruction of the tropical forests continues rapidly. We all know that this has global, ecological and economic consequences. The problem is of such magnitude that it can only be compared to warfare. The destruction of tropical forests is both detrimental to the global ecology as well as posing a serious threat to the people living in these areas. Furthermore, the overutilization of such a valuable resource poses a serious threat to the next generations. Besides the problem generated for the people in these regions, and for the earth in general, there is a moral obligation to preserve the vast biological diversity in the tropical forests. We have a commitment to all species on earth as well as man and, therefore, need to preserve as many as possible, if not all. This book discusses the problem from different angles: from forestry, ecology and nature conservation. The two main problem areas are: first the wise utilization of that portion of the forest which will be used - especially the introduction of planned forestry in such areas and second the development of a good plan for nature conservation in the tropics.
