• Sommario/riassunto: Desde la caída del Muro de Berlín hasta los respectivos 11-S/-M, nos asiste un sentimiento de permanente aceleración de la realidad. La sociedad de la información y el desarrollo tecnológico han propiciado un mundo más estrechamente conectado y con un sentimiento definitivamente planetario. Esta dinámica ha generado transformaciones de nuestros modos de percepción de la realidad que, sin ir más lejos, en lo sociológico se traduce en una sociedad multicultural, abierta, transnacional, aceptadora de las diferencias, pero también exclusora socialmente, corporativista en los poderes políticos tradicionales, de una sumisión mediática sin precedentes... Los escritores surgidos en los noventa han ido posicionándose en torno a todos estos fenómenos. La necesidad de pensar lo que está ocurriendo en las letras, en cualquiera de sus modalidades, nos lleva a reunir a sus intérpretes (creadores, críticos o teóricos) con la intención de clarificar los procesos en marcha. Este libro es producto del cruce de miradas entre los agentes implicados en el proceso de creación reciente, a partir de un encuentro que se celebró en la primavera de 2004 en la Universidad de Alicante. Más allá de la discusión entre poéticas representativas de distintas estrategias literarias, el presente libro pretende clarificar los caminos de la creación en el muevo milenio. Su amplia diversidad parece una alternativa viable al conformismo que postula la globalización en un mundo marcado por el signo permanente del desconcierto.

• Sommario/riassunto: St Oswald was the youngest of the three great monastic reformers of tenth-century England, whose work transformed English religious, intellectual and political life. Certainly a more attractive and perhaps a more effective figure than either St Dunstan or St Ethelwold, Oswald's ; impact upon his cathedrals at Worcester and York and upon his West Midland and East Anglian monasteries was radical and lasting.

• Sommario/riassunto: "The Ohio River Valley was a place of violence in the nineteenth century, something witnessed on multiple stages ranging from local conflicts between indigenous and Euro-American communities to the Battle of Tippecanoe and the War of 1812. To describe these events as simply the result of American expansion versus indigenous nativism disregards the complexities of the people and their motivations. Patrick Bottiger explores the diversity between and among the communities ; that were the source of this violence. As new settlers invaded their land, the Shawnee brothers Tenskwatawa and Tecumseh pushed for a unified Indigenous front. However, the multiethnic Miamis, Kickapoos, Potawatomis, and Delawares, who also lived in the region, favored local interests over a single tribal entity. The Miami-French trade and political network was extensive, and the Miamis staunchly defended their hegemony in the region from challenges by other Native groups. Additionally, William Henry Harrison, governor of the Indiana Territory, lobbied for the introduction of slavery in the territory. In its own turn, this move sparked heated arguments in newspapers and on the street. Harrisonians deflected criticism by blaming tensions on indigenous groups and then claiming that antislavery settlers were Indian allies. Bottiger demonstrates that violence, rather than being imposed on the region's inhabitants by outside forces, instead stemmed from the factionalism that was already present. The Borderland of fear explores how these conflicts were not between nations and races but rather between cultures and factions."--Dust jacket.
