Este poemario muestra el camino interior del autor en la busqueda del valor del amor. Refleja la lucha del buscar tanto en el interior, en su alma, la comprension del amor, aun en vivencias hechas realidad por actos de fe, en esta busqueda incesante de la razon del amar en su existencia, como en el exterior, en el mundo que le rodea, con todos sus matices y colores que bordean la vivencia de este valor tan necesario y vital en el ser humano. El autor profundiza en esta serie de poemas el aspecto dramatico del amor, cuando solo se espera en un acto de fe, continuo en el tiempo, solo en el deseo y en la voluntad del esperar, con ese sentimiento firme de encontrar la felicidad plena, al amor mismo.

A selection of poems by the Argentinian writer, Jorge Luis Borges from the period of 1923-1967.

Through the lens of ecocriticism, history, memory, and gender studies, this book studies the many ways in which the image of the river has been integrated into Latin/o American literature from the period of exploration and colonization to modern times, examining the imagery and symbolism tied to rivers in the writings of the region.

"This book narrates exchanges between English- and Spanish-language poets in the American hemisphere from the late 1930s through the rise of the 1960s. It doing so, it contributes to a crucial current of humanistic inquiry: the effort to write a cosmopolitan literary history adequate to the age of globalization. Building on correspondence and manuscripts from collections in Europe and the Americas, the book first traces the material contours of an evolving literary network that exceeds the conventional model of "the two Americas." These relations depend on changing contexts: an era of state-sponsored transnationalism, from the wartime intensification of Good Neighbor diplomacy, to the Cold War cultural policy programs of the Alliance for Progress in the 1960s; a prosperous market for translations of Latin American poetry in the US; and a growing alternative print sphere of bilingual vanguard journals such as El Corno Emplumado (Mexico City, 1962-1969). As the book articulates these histories of exchange, it also theorizes how poets employ the resources of language to transform popular images of the hemisphere from a locus of political conflict into a venue of supranational cultural citizenship. Feinsod describes how inter-Americanism was enacted through diplomatic structures of literary address, multilingual writing, and appeals to a shared indigenous heritage through the genre of the meditation on ruins. By tracing the coevolution of midcentury poetry with the geopolitics of the hemisphere, the book expands existing literary histories of the period through revelatory comparative readings supported by archival findings"--
