Cuentos del Campus

El presente libro es el producto de la convocatoria que la Universidad del Magdalena abrió a principio del año 2018 para funcionarios, docentes, contratistas, graduados y pensionados que escriben cuentos. Los textos seleccionados son diversos en sus temas y tratamientos, un hecho que refleja la disparidad de visiones y poéticas que rige el desarrollo del género en el país y la región. El número y la calidad de algunos de estos cuentos confirman al Caribe y al Magdalena como territorios literarios fecundos, parcelas en donde el cuento mantiene una vigencia privilegiada, muy a pesar de ser un género sin editores que apuesten por él.

Innovation in Pharmacy: Advances and Perspectives. September 2018

This book contains the summaries of the "Innovation in Pharmacy: Advances and Perspectives" that took place in Salamanca (Spain) in September 2018. The early science of chemistry and microbiology were the source of most drugs until the revolution of genetic engineering in the mid 1970s. Then biotechnology made available novel protein agents such as interferons, blood factors and monoclonal antibodies that have changed the modern pharmacy. Over the past year, a new pharmacy of oligonucleotides has emerged from the science of gene expression such as RNA splicing and RNA interference. The ability to design therapeutic agents from genomic sequences will transform treatment for many diseases. The...

Understanding what it is, how it operates, and what we can do to make it work in our favor is fundamental. And it is what the reader will accomplish on these pages.

Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. Bilingual Edition. Translated from the Spanish by Daniel Borzutzky. "I sang the song of the old concrete sheds. It was filled with hundreds of niches, one over the other. There is a country in each one; they're like boys, they're dead." In this landmark poem, written at the height of the Pinochet dictatorship, major Chilean poet Raul Zurita protests with ferocious invention the extinguishment of a generation and the brutalization of a nation. Of the role of poetry and of his own treatment by the military under this regime, Zurita has said, "You see, the only thing that told me that I wasn't crazy, that I wasn't living in a nightmare, was this file of poems, and then when they threw them into the sea, then I understood exactly what was happening." This elegy refuses to be an elegy, refuses to let the Disappeared disappear.
