Sinopse

This volume brings forward a descriptive approach to the translation and reception of African American women's literature in Spain. Drawing from a multidisciplinary theoretical and methodological framework, it traces the translation history of literature produced by African American women, seeking to uncover changing strategies in translation policies as well as shifts in interests in the target context, and it examines the topicality of this cohort of authors as frames of reference for Spanish critics and reviewers. Likewise, the reception of the source literature in the Spanish context is described by reconstructing the values that underlie judgements in different reception sources. Finally, this book addresses the specific problem of the translation of Black English into Spanish. More precisely, it pays attention to the ideological and the ethical implications of translation choices and the effect of the latter on the reception of literary texts.

    The Middle Way and other essays

    This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No.99 by M. O’C. Walshe, "The Middle Way and other essays" found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. IV. 
     
    Excerpt: 
    "It is always a good idea to seek the middle way, or the golden mean, between extremes whether in politics, in one’s personal view and behaviour, or in fact in any walk of life. The difficulty arises when we attempt to discover what, in practice, is the middle way. It is not, as some appear to suppose, the mid-point between truth and falsehood, or between right and wrong! In fact the middle way itself is true, and is right: the difficulty lies merely in finding it. Here are some examples: it is the mean between (as the Buddha said) self-indulgence and self-mortification, or (the same thing as applied to other persons and animals) between pampering and cruelty. 
     
    "The middle way, even at a fairly modest, mundane level, is not very popular in the world today. Probably it never was. But in these restless times it is perhaps especially needed, and at the same time especially hard to achieve. It is fatally easy to indulge in nostalgia, to conjure up a false and idealised picture of earlier times which in fact, whatever period of history we may envisage, all had their grave disadvantages of one kind or another. All the same, until recent times it may be said that, in general, life usually had a kind of placidity that has now been lost, and which is hard to recapture, except in the atmosphere of some temple, church, meditation centre or the like. This, however, may simply mean that in earlier times the tendency towards sloth and indolence was, on the whole, greater than that towards worry and flurry."

    Axiom Award Bronze Medalist for Women / BIPOC in Business 
    A deeply personal call to action for women of color to find power from within and to join together in community, advocating for a new corporate environment where we all belong—and are accepted—on our own terms. 
    Women of color comprise one of the fastest-growing segments in the corporate workforce, yet often we are underrepresented—among the first, few, or only ones in a department or company. For too long, corporate structures, social zeitgeist, and cultural conditioning have left us feeling exhausted and downtrodden, believing that in order to “fit in” and be successful, we must hide or change who we are. 
    As a former senior partner at a large global services firm, Deepa Purushothaman experienced these feelings of isolation and burnout. She met with hundreds of other women of color across industries and cultural backgrounds, eager to hear about their unique and shared experiences. In doing so, she has come to understand our collective setbacks—and the path forward in achieving our goals.   
    Business must evolve—and women of color have the potential to lead that transformation. We must begin by pushing back against toxic messaging—including the things we tell ourselves—while embracing the valuable cultural viewpoints and experiences that give us unique perspectives at work. By fully realizing our own strengths, we can build collective power and use it to confront microaggressions, outdated norms, and workplace misconceptions; create cultures where belonging is never conditional; and rework corporations to be genuinely inclusive to all. 
    The First, the Few, the Only is a road map for us to make a profound impact within and outside our organizations while ensuring that our words are heard, our lived experiences are respected, and our contributions are finally valued.

    Smoky God The - or A Voyage to...

    Step into one of the most fascinating works of subterranean lore ever written. First published in 1908, The Smoky God recounts the extraordinary tale of Olaf Jansen, a Norwegian sailor who claimed to have journeyed with his father through an opening at the North Pole into a vast hidden land within the Earth. 
    Inside, they discovered a thriving civilization of giants, a lush inner sun known as “The Smoky God,” and a society far advanced in peace, longevity, and wisdom. Blending travel narrative, myth, and esoteric speculation, this gripping account has become a cornerstone of Hollow Earth theory and alternative history. 
    Is it fact, allegory, or pure imagination? That question continues to fuel its enduring mystery. What is certain is that Emerson’s book has inspired generations of explorers, mystics, and seekers to question the boundaries of geography, science, and human possibility. 
    Now brought to life in audiobook form, The Smoky God is more than a story—it is an invitation to explore the unknown and consider what wonders might lie hidden beneath our very feet.
