In the last years, Smiljan Radic has become in one of the most renowned architects in the world, mainly due to his work’s eccentricity, his “significative contribution to architecture as an art” as recognized by the Arnold W. Brunner of the American Institute of Architects in 2018. Rough Work, written mainly by Radic himself, is an essential compilation of his work. Smiljan shares his thoughts, inspirations, heroes, and a selection of 24 key works that allows us to understand the architect’s trajectory. "In it, you will find a stolen title and other tales, together with my writing, frustrated projects, drawings and scribbles, academic excercises, happy buildings in use, others that are gone now, and many engineering plans. It is all part of what I have been able to build through 2015—a past that today takes a natural and expectant position in my present work, as if it were REMEMBERING A FORGETTING."—Smiljan Radic.

This book is an initiative of the Regional Groups of Historical Memory (GRMH), which, together with the National Center for Historical Memory since 2013, generated proposals for the construction of historical memory in Colombia. The objective of the consolidation of the GRMH has been to recognize local research processes carried out by university professors to build bridges between the country's institutions and communities victimized in the framework of the internal armed conflict in Colombia. Although the participatory social research bets are nourished by multiple edges, disciplines, and schools of thought, there are methodological peculiarities in the investigations that are formulated in the key of historical memory that, on this occasion, are transversal and are deepened in each chapter.

Toda antología es el mapa de un espacio más o menos desconocido. Fiel a ese principio, este volumen de poesía rusa en lengua castellana, en selección y traducción de Indira Díaz, nos guía por el basto territorio a lo largo de la segunda mitad del sigloo XX y de los primeros años del siglo XXI. Como todo mapa, éste abre ante nosotros un sinfin de mundos - no menos de cincuenta que es el número de poetas recogidos - y corresponderá posteriormente al lector adentrarse por cuenta propia en esos mundos o en aquellos otros de los que más o menos indirectamente nos abra las puertas. Cincuenta voces que nos remiten, por ausencia o por presencia, a otros puntos de otros mapas del mismo territorio, mapas temporales (como no sentirnos tentados a buscar, para encontrar o no, los ecos de una Brodsky, una Ajmátova, un Mandelshtam, una Tsvataieva, un Evtushenko, etc., por no remitirnos más a trás), mapas espaciales (no en vano los poetas presentados proceden de los más diversos rincones de la geografía rusa) o mapas de lecturas (¿habrá ecos de tradiciones literarias ajenas a la rusa?, qué cadencia tendrán?). Tantas y tantas respuestas en estas páginas.

Otros vislumbres. Poesía actual de la India recupera las varias formas en que la poesía se manifiesta en una vastedad históricamente sinuosa y compleja: formas que oscilan entre el ghazal y el poema en prosa, entre el salmo y el epigrama, entre el monólogo dramático y un lirismo pop. Estamos ante nuevas formas de la voz que representan nuevos sujetos en un tiempo nuevo. Hay en estas páginas una condición de cruce: puentes entre culturas, experiencias, poemas, Otros vislumbres. Poesía actual de la India recuerda que la poesía habita en el intersticio, en el in-between, en el vislumbre. Gustavo Osorio de Ita
Peace seems to have been elusive in Colombian history. The ups and downs in the negotiation processes, the unfulfilled promises, and the political polarization have made Colombia a nation in a state of continuous crisis and that, in spite of itself - to take up the old Bushnell phrase - has managed to stay afloat and, above all, do not lose hope for a stable and lasting peace. There have been numerous attempts to build it and they seem to have been unsuccessful, especially because a good part of the collective representation that we have of them has been built from the media apparatus that, in the case of our country, has been at the service of power and that it has resulted in skepticism that, especially since the 1990s, has tended to transform into a strong polarization. With this book, we want not only to think about peace and (post) conflict from communication but to remind (us), once again, that we can still be we.
