Discursos Sobre La Primera Decada De Tito Livio (Obras Maestras Del Pensamiento)

1 review
Niccolo Machiavelli

Losada, 2005

Another kind of Machiavelli. Different than the known one.
No one who wants to have an entire view of the whole political reflexions of Machiavelli, can get it without reading "Discourses.." (Discorsi...). There the reader will find another kind of Machiavelli. Not The Prince's, but another thinker. Deeper and broader, the main topic rather than how to get the power (as along The Prince), is now how to stabilize it. Livy's work is just a motive for ...

LA Casa De Bernarda Alba

6 reviews
Federico Garcia Lorca

Losada, 2000

POWERFUL, ROMANTIC....
This is an incredible play, and it is hard to imagine that it was written so long ago, for it has an everlasting effect... It deals with culture, bitterness, love, loss, tragedy and family. It is above all a book about the great expectations a young girl has with life, and how her mother and sisters destroy them. It is a sad tale, but it is written in such a powerful way that you simply cannot ...

LA Nausea (Biblioteca Clsica Y Contempornea)

Jean-Paul Sartre

Losada, 1999

The poetry of obsessive uselessness
Sartre's "Nausea" is a gripping, twitchy little novella confirming the ways one person of unpleasant station can make them self sick , nervous, an odious presence by lingering long on the ambivalent shrug .No one else could write a better tale of an intensely self-aware intellectual whose physical discomforts translate into a changed worldview. Not a lot of laughs, but Sartre does insert his ...

Cuentos de La Selva (Biblioteca Clasica y Contemporanea)

4 reviews
Horacio Quiroga

Losada, 1995

bilingual teacher's saving grace
What can a bilingual teacher do when s/he notices that students look bored during read aloud? If they are in grades 2 or above, whip out Cuentos de la selva, a collection of stories about animals in the jungles of South America. Start with "El loro pelado". That will captivate them completely. After that, they will enjoy all other stories. Any student with a 5th grade reading level can read and ...

Confieso Que He Vivido

8 reviews
Pablo Neruda

Losada, 2006

An Extraordinary Poet - An Extraordinary Human Being - A Life Well Led!,
Pablo Neruda's "Memoirs" is not a comprehensive autobiographical document. It is a personal memoir, recounted as if the author were sitting around a table, with good friends and a bottle of excellent Chilean wine, telling tales of the people, anecdotes and incidents that were so important in his life. "Confieso Que He Vivido," means I confess that I have lived. And Sr. Neruda certainly did ...
