"Piedras al mar": el silencio y la memoria en Ritos de Pasaje
Reseña de la colección titulada Ritos de Pasaje, de Kadiri Vaquer Fernández, San Juan: La secta de los perros, 2019
Introducción. Cuba y España: los rastros de una poética transatlántica.
El dossier Encuentros Transatlánticos: Cuba y España se propone explorar a través de seis ensayos diferentes acercamientos e intercambios culturales, literarios y políticos que van desde la presencia de escritores cubanos en España durante la Guerra Civil hasta la novela contemporánea cubana y la presencia de las editoriales españolas en el mercado literario latinoamericano. Los primeros dos artículos, de Marelys Valencia y Jennifer Duprey, se centran en las visiones utópicas frustradas que se exploran en la novela contemporánea cubana de Teresa Dovalpage y Leonardo Padura; los artículos de Andrés Zamora y Andrew Bush nos llevan a repensar los años cuarenta y cincuenta con el rol cultural de un músico cubano como Antonio Machín dentro de la dictadura franquista (1939-1975), y las conexiones intelectuales entre María Zambrano y José Lezama Lima, respectivamente; y los últimos dos artículos, el de Jesús Cano Reyes y el de Cecilia Enjuto Rangel, exhortan al lector a revisitar el compromiso político y literario de los intelectuales cubanos con la República durante la Guerra Civil española (1936-1939), analizando respectivamente la obra de Carlos Montenegro y Nicolás Guillén.El dossier Encuentros Transatlánticos: Cuba y España se propone explorar a través de seis ensayos diferentes acercamientos e intercambios culturales, literarios y políticos que van desde la presencia de escritores cubanos en España durante la Guerra Civil hasta la novela contemporánea cubana y la presencia de las editoriales españolas en el mercado literario latinoamericano.

K-12 Virtual Tutoring: An Equitable Pandemic-era Service Worth Continuing
Public libraries are in a unique position to offer tutoring services that can be delivered to the community in convenient and innovative ways. Started at the height of the COVID pandemic, the Multnomah County Library’s K-12 Virtual Tutoring/Tutoría Virtual provides an impactful and equitable model for how a team of library professionals researched, developed, and maintained a virtual tutoring service staffed entirely by volunteers. Despite challenges, the service is still thriving and helping students regain learning lost during the school closure. With the right funding, staffing, and technological support for families to successfully participate, a staff-run, volunteer-driven virtual tutoring service has the potential to make a big difference, and libraries are in a unique and trusted position to provide this support, particularly in the subjects of reading and writing
Foreword by the Editor/Prólogo del editor
In this third issue of Periphērica (2.1) we offer a wide range of critical approaches to cultural production from Latinoamérica and Iberia. As in our past issues, most of the works analyzed here are not defined by one cultural center, a single nation-state, but instead they inhabit the intervals of migration, exile, travel, adaptation, and cultural circulation in different spaces: Argentina and Paris, Cuba and Spain, Murcia and Havana, Mexico and Barcelona, Lisbon and Mexico
The Early Eocene Decapod Crustacean Fauna of the Lookingglass Formation, Oregon
The Tenmile Member of the Lookingglass Formation (Lower Eocene) of southwest Oregon produces a diverse marine invertebrate fossil fauna including at least eleven genera of decapod crustaceans. This is the earliest Cenozoic crab fauna known from the Pacific Northwest, and is one of the earliest on the west coast of North America. The fossiliferous sediments are generally fine-grained mudstones without much compaction, with evidence suggesting a low-energy environment in relatively shallow water and a mild warm climate. The abundance of complete crabs at some localities is exceptional, and suggests repeated mass mortality caused by environmental conditions. Modern relatives of several of the taxa are burrowers. The fossils are often well-preserved in concretions. Preservation in concretions preferentially involves decaying crab corpses; other taxonomic groups are underrepresented in concretions. The fauna includes an unusual number of raninid crabs, in three genera (Raninoides vaderensis, Rogueus orri, and Doraranina manleyi) of which the latter two genera are only known from this formation. A scyllarid, Llajassus caesius, is one of a very few of this group known as fossils. Dominant in numbers is the euryplacid crab Orbitoplax weaveri, with specimens numbering in the thousands. Other crustaceans include the ghost shrimp Ctenocheles hokoensis, Panopeus baldwini (the largest crab in the fauna), Eriosachila orri, Palaeopinnixa rathbunae, and rare examples of Archaeozius occidentalis and Marycarcinus hannae. The abundance of specimens allows examination of several taxa as populations rather than individuals as is frequently the case in fossil crabs
After the Book, the Book? The Digital Writing Experiments of François Bon
While most commentators believe that the print book will survive the advent of the ebook, it is at the same time hard not to think that the fundamental technological changes ushered in by the digital revolution will fail to have profound effects on the forms of the book. Arguing that literary forms have always depended on the “material conditions of their enunciation,” the French author François Bon uses historical examples to suggest the book will undergo major, if yet unforeseen, transformations. He maintains that it is urgent for writers to experiment with the possibilities brought about by the digital revolution, lest the actual developments be decided by the commercial interests of large technology entities. In his own experiments with the form of the book in the digital environment -- in his “novel” Tumulte, which consists of daily blog posts that mix fiction, memoir, criticism, and other genres, and in a series of digital remediations of his early novel, Limite -- Bon imaginatively explores the limits of the concept of the book. Yet while these experiments are suggestive, it is less clear that they represent viable avenues for the book’s development, since their main appeal is arguably for scholars and theoreticians. Focusing on the means of organization and delivery, and the ontological ambiguities arising from the multiple versions of the same text, Bon’s experiments skirt the core power of the book: the sustained arrangement of words that has been the principle means whereby books have conveyed content and sustained intellectual culture
Unknown Future, Repeated Present: A Narrative-Centered Analysis of Long-Term AI Discourse
Recent narratives and debates surrounding long-term AI concerns—the prospect of artificial general intelligence in particular—are fraught with hidden assumptions, priorities, and values. This paper employs a humanistic, narrative-centered approach to analyze the works of two vocal, and opposing, thinkers in the field—Luciano Floridi and Nick Bostrom—to ask how the representational, descriptive differences in their works reveal the high stakes of narrative choices for how we form ideas about humanity, urgency, risk, harm, and possibility in relation to AI. This paper closely reads Floridi and Bostrom using different representational models and historical narratives from works in the environmental humanities, literary theory, bioethics, and the history of technology to uncover the imaginative terrain of recent long-term AI discourse and reveal the complexity and limitations of the messaging underlying the works of different authors
