Jergario latinoamericano ilustrado
La lengua es un extenso y diverso territorio por donde atraviesa la cultura toda y en el que se manifiesta casi cualquier faceta de la vida cotidiana. La lengua es patrimonio intangible de los seres humanos y de ella los hablantes somos los únicos dueños y cuidadores y, por eso, con ella, y gracias a ella, los hablantes podemos jugar, crear, recrear e inventar palabras, jugar a escribirlas de muchos modos, mencionarlas o situarlas en nuevas y distintas dimensiones, para encontrarnos con ellas y reconocernos en ellas. En ese juego, la lengua nos permite regocijarnos e identificarnos en lo que compartimos con otros hablantes y en lo que nos hace únicos y distintos del otro. El Jergario lati...

Beyond Reason
Beyond Reason relates Wagner's works to the philosophical and cultural ideas of his time, centering on the four music dramas he created in the second half of his career: Der Ring des Nibelungen, Tristan und Isolde, Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, and Parsifal. Karol Berger seeks to penetrate the "secret" of large-scale form in Wagner's music dramas and to answer those critics, most prominently Nietzsche, who condemned Wagner for his putative inability to weld small expressive gestures into larger wholes. Organized by individual opera, this is essential reading for both musicologists and Wagner experts.
Teachers as Intellectuals
First published in 1988, Teachers as Intellectuals encourages us to see schools as democratic spaces in which teachers and students work together to transform society. Giroux incorporates the most valuable insights of critical pedagogy into a more comprehensive and practical theory of schooling, committed to educating students in the language of critique and possibility. At the heart of his vision for schooling is the ability of the teacher to act as a transformative intellectual and to use critical pedagogy as a form of cultural politics. The book includes an introduction by Paulo Freire, a foreword by Peter McLaren and new introduction from the author.
