María Rosa Lojo, "Free Women in the Pampas: A Novel about Victoria Ocampo"
English | ISBN: 0228008611 | 2021 | 280 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
A feminist pioneer, writer, and patron of the arts and literature in Buenos Aires, Victoria Ocampo (1890-1979) was a larger-than-life personality of legendary vitality. A key protagonist in Argentina's rise to world-class status in the arts and sciences, Ocampo leveraged her wealth and social status to found Sur (1931-92), the internationally influential journal of literature, culture, and ideas.Ocampo personally invited many intellectual and artistic celebrities to visit Buenos Aires. Most were men. Some, endowed with egos as outsized as their reputations, tripped and fell into sentimental imbroglios with the strong-willed and beautiful Ocampo. In Free Women in the Pampas the ups and downs of her passionate friendships, debates, and misunderstandings with poet Rabindranath Tagore, philosopher José Ortega y Gasset, and the writers Pierre Drieu de la Rochelle, Hermann von Keyserling, and Waldo Frank are witnessed by the fictional Carmen Brey, a Galician-Spanish immigrant whose story is skilfully interwoven with that of Ocampo. Carmen's sympathetic but incisive gaze puts her friend Victoria into perspective against a larger vision of Argentina. Carmen's adventures lead her to social-justice writer María Rosa Oliver, the wilder side of the 1920s literary avant-garde (and the now-canonical authors Roberto Arlt, Jorge Luis Borges, and Leopoldo Marechal), the Mapuche people of the pampa, and a ten-year-old Evita Ibarguren, later famous as Eva Perón.Against this broad, inclusive backdrop, the novel vividly depicts Victoria Ocampo's struggle with the strictures of class and gender to find her own voice and vocation as a public intellectual.

Nadia Benabid, "Frantz Fanon: A Portrait"
English | 2006 | ISBN: 080147308X, 0801440386 | PDF | pages: 276 | 17.9 mb
"Fanon was consummately incapable of telling the story of himself. He lived in the immediacy of the moment, with an intensity that embodied everything he evoked. Fanon's discourse pertained to a present tense that was unburdened by its narrative past. The little we knew about his personal life had been gleaned from passing allusions, brief glimpses that vanished as quickly as they appeared.... Fanon had a profound talent for life; he was a man who wanted to be the subject and actor of his own life, and it was for this reason that he was so engaging and disarming―so alive."―from the Introduction

Tony Chafer, Alexander Keese, "Francophone Africa at fifty"
English | 2018 | pages: 257 | ISBN: 1526122855, 0719089301 | PDF | 1,8 mb
France's presence on the African continent has often been presented as 'cooperation' and part of French cultural policy by policy-makers in Paris - and quite as often been denounced as 'the longest scandal of the republic' by French academics and African intellectuals. Between the last years of French colonialism and France's sustained interventions in former African colonies such as Chad or Côte d'Ivoire during the 2000s, the legacy of French colonialism has shaped the historical trajectory of more than a dozen countries and societies in Africa. The complexities of this story are now, for the first time, addressed in a comprehensive series of essays, based on new research by a group of specialists in French colonial history. The book addresses the needs of both academic specialists and those of students of history and neighbouring disciplines looking for structural analysis of key themes in France's and Africa's shared history.
