Book Description
¿Qué hay en la belleza y por qué nos importa tanto? Desde tiempos inmemoriales los humanos han acudido a tinturas, pócimas, filtros y otros artilugios para ser mirados y admirados. Los egipcios, por ejemplo, delineaban sus párpados con kohl y las mujeres usaban sombras verdes y azules, colorete en las mejillas y carmín de un rojo intenso en los labios. De ese modo no sólo cautivaban a sus medias naranjas, también obtenían la protección de los dioses. Y, sin saberlo, estaban desarrollando conocimiento científico y tecnológico. No es de extrañar, entonces, que hoy dediquemos tanto tiempo y esfuerzo a que nuestra piel luzca tersa y suave, a realzar con maquillaje ojos y labios, a enrular o alisar el cabello. Y que la belleza (o más bien su búsqueda) haya generado una industria que mueve millones. Florencia Servera incursiona en el glamoroso mundo de los cosméticos y los tratamientos de belleza para revelar sus secretos científicos mejor guardados. Antioxidantes para combatir los radicales libres, colágeno, elastina, ácido hialurónico, cremas antiage: ¿cómo podemos creer que las arrugas van a desaparecer en quince días? En este libro, nuestra autora revela mitos y verdades sobre el mundo de la belleza, y aunque lamenta comunicarnos que no hay cambios mágicos, nos cuenta cuáles son los aportes de la ciencia para vernos bien y saludables, y arrancar suspiros en el próximo congreso de astrofísica, en la reunión de consorcio o en una cita a ciegas.

Book Description
La belleza es un escándalo. Aunque no nos guste reconocerlo, sabemos –y puede demostrarse- que un niño guapo obtiene notas más altas en el colegio, que una paciente atractiva suele recibir mejor atención por parte del médico y que un ladrón bien parecido puede gozar de mayor benevolencia por parte del juez. La belleza nos confunde, atenta contra nuestros ideales de igualdad y nos seduce de forma irresistible. Poseerla carece de todo mérito, pero nada suscita mayor envidia y deseo.Ulrich Renz expone de forma clara, documentada y muy entretenida las razones científicas que convierten a la belleza en un componente esencial de nuestras vidas. Pasa revista a su historia desde la antigüedad, analiza las principales teorías científicas y psicológicas sobre el atractivo físico, sobre el poder extraordinario del rostro humano, sobre el encanto de las mujeres (parecido al que suscitan los bebés en todos nosotros) y sobre la belleza, mucho menos definible, de los varones. No falta tampoco una reflexión sobre el culto actual y obsesivo a la belleza y sobre las distintas formas de explotación de ese componente básico en las relaciones humanas, pues estamos programados biológicamente para sentirnos atraídos hacia lo bello.La enseñanza fundamental de La ciencia de la belleza es que debemos ser conscientes de ese poder, para adquirir así un punto de vista crítico sobre las valoraciones que emitimos acerca de las demás personas y de nosotros mismos.

Book Description
“My head is in the United States and my feet are in Mexico!” cried Carlos sprawling at ease upon the sun-warmed grass. Whereupon Carlota, not to be outdone in anything, promptly rolled her plump little person over the sward until its length lay along a lime-line running due east and west across the plain. Her yellow curls touched her twin’s yet her body formed a right angle to his. Then she remarked: “Pooh! I’m better than that! My heart is in my own country and my—my— What is it that’s on the other side of you from your heart, brother?” “I don’t know. Maybe gizzard.” Carlota sat up, amazed and indignant. “Girls don’t have gizzards, Carlos Manuel. Only chickens and geeses and things like those. You haven’t paid attention when my father teached you.” Carlos laughed; so merrily and noisily that old Marta came to the door of the adobe house to see what was the fun. Nobody knew the housekeeper’s real age, it was so very great. None could remember things so far back as she, but she had ceased to count the years long, long ago, why not? What matter, if she still had the heart of a child, yes? Certainly, neither Carlos nor Carlota cared. To them she had never changed, either in appearance or kindness, and they found no birthdays worth remembering except their own. These only, probably, because of the gifts andfiestas then made upon the whole rancho. “Perhaps, I didn’t, little sister, but neither did you, or you’d never have said ‘geeses’ nor ‘teached’.” “Both of us was wrong, weren’t we?” returned the girl, with as fine a disregard of grammar as of ill temper. “We’ll be more ’tentive when our father comes home, won’t we? When will that be, Carlos?” It was a perplexing question, and the boy put it aside, as he put all difficulties, until a more convenient season. Crossing his arms above his head, he gazed unblinkingly upward into the brilliant sky, proposing: “Let’s find things in the clouds, Carlota. I see a ship, I do, truly. It’s just like the pictures in the books. All its sails are set and flying. Oh! can’t you see? Right there? There! It’s moving northward fast—fast! It might be the ship in which our father will come home.” He meant to comfort her, but Carlota would not look up. She could not. The sunbeams made prisms of the teardrops on her lashes and blinded her. She buried her face in the grass to escape these tiny “rainbows,” and all at once fell to sobbing bitterly. Carlos hated that. He hated anything dark or unhappy. He sat up and patted his sister’s shoulder, soothingly, entreating: “There, don’t! Don’t, girlie. Our father wouldn’t like it if he should come home now, this minute, and find you crying.” The words were magic. Carlota sprang to her feet and earnestly peered into the distance, crying: “Is he? Do you see him, brother? Do you?” Carlos, also, leaped up and threw his arm about her waist: “I didn’t say that, did I? I only said ‘if.’” “I don’t like ‘ifs,’” sobbed Carlota. “Oh, Carlota, don’t cry. You shall not. If you do I will go away myself, to the northwest, to find my father.” “Oh! let’s!” “I said ‘I.’ Not you. Girls never go anywhere, because they always cry. If it hadn’t been for that my father might have taken me with him. You see, he couldn’t take you, on account of it; and he couldn’t leave you at home with only Marta and the men, for then—that would make more tears. So I had to stay to take care of you, and I do think, if I were a girl, the very first thing I would do—I wouldn’t cry. Criers never have real good times, I guess.” This was logic, and from Carlos, whom Carlota idolized only less than their absent father, most convincing. She winked very fast and drew her sleeve across her eyes, to dry the drops which would not be shaken off.

Book Description
This collection of essays confirms Carmen de Burgos’s pivotal place in Spanish feminist history by bringing together eminent international scholars who offer new readings of Burgos’s work. It includes the analyses of a number of lesser-known texts, both fictional and non-fictional, which give us a more comprehensive examination of Burgos’s multipronge feminist approach. Burgos’s works, especially her essays, are essential feminist reading and complement other European and North American traditions. Gaining familiarity with the breadth and depth of her work serves not only to provide an understanding of Spanish firstwave feminism, but also enriches our appreciation of cultural studies, gender studies, subaltern studies and travel literature. Looking at the entirety of her life and work, and the wide-ranging contributions in this volume, it is evident that Burgos embodied the tensions between tradition and modernity, depicting multiple representations of womanhood. Encouraging women to take ownership of their personal fashion, the design of their homes and the decorum of their families were steps towards recognizing a female population that was cognizant of its own desires.
