The Political Imagination in Spanish Graphic Narrative

They employ a cultural studies approach with different theoretical frameworks ranging from debates within comics studies, film and media theory, postcolonialism, feminism, economics, multimodality, aging, aesthetics, memory studies, food studies, and sound studies, among others.

Gabriel Il Profeta


Book Description

Gabriel il Profeta was raised in the Vatican ever since he was a young boy and was mentored and educated by priests, scholars and has attended numerous colleges. But this information isn't available to anyone except the Pope. All of Gabriel's information is inside the "Book of Secrets" and explains all his hidden talents. The committee of Cardinals that oversee all paranormal investigations have no knowledge of Gabriel's attributes and talents, and Cardinal Leonetti wants to get a hold of that book. When an exorcism takes the wrong turn and the family of the possessed child describe Gabriel as "God's Reaper", Cardinal Leonetti and the committee want answers. The Pope intervenes and suspends Gabriel indefinitely and orders him to leave the Vatican and Italy (for his own good). The Pope instructed Gabriel not to conduct any business on behalf of the church during his suspension. Gabriel eludes the Swiss Guards while enroute to the airport and manages to flee Italy incognito. Gabriel eventually ends up in Jarden, Montana, a small town in the middle of nowhere to sit out his suspension. Gabriel immediately has an encounter with a young boy (Willie) at the local diner and a malevolent spirit that's haunting the boy. Willie tells Gabriel about other spirits at his house and at school that have been tormenting him. Gabriel vowed to help Willie and his mother even though he had been instructed by the Pope not to involve himself with ghosts or demons. Everywhere Gabriel turns someone needs his talents and tries to keep his activity hidden with the help of the local priest (Father McDunnough), who is an old friend. Gabriel helps an older couple with a problem in their basement, a friend's mother at the nursing home and a paranormal investigations team at the old Montana State School. All the while Cardinal Leonetti has his "Sicario's" feverishly looking for Gabriel, even though the Pope has instructed them to leave him alone. Gabriel's intention is to return to the Vatican and face Cardinal Leonetti and the committee, but Cardinal Leonetti and the demons are intent on that not happening. Gabriel has an "uncanny" knack of changing the lives of the people he encounters, and inflicting pain on the non-living! Gabriel begins his long journey back to the Vatican and concludes with a showdown between Cardinal Leonetti, the committee and himself. Gabriel discovers that Cardinal Leonetti has been scheming with a dark entity who is very insistent on finding out if Gabriel is "Living" or "Non-Living"! Gabriel battles it out with the demon "Nazzar" in the Cardinal's Chambers within the Vatican, as the committee, Cardinal Leonetti and the Pope witness Gabriel's skills and attributes come forth.




Crëative SYNAPSE©


Book Description

Dr. Ariel Orama López published a new theoretical framework based on Creativity and the recent findings of Neuroscience: the textbook is called CRËATIVE SYNAPSE: CRËATE.YOUR.UNIVERSE© (2013). It is the first theoretical framework that explains the behavior of the human being by integrating the following variables: creativity, neuroscience, and the new influence of the virtual universe. The collection book will be presented in the atrium of the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico on Wednesday, September 11, 2013, in a distinguished context of artists, health professionals and academics. Dr. Gregory J. Quirk, a prominent American researcher specialized in Neuroscience & Luca Spaghetti, the well-known Italian amico writer -who served as a guide to Elizabeth Gilbert on her journey through Italy while writing Eat Pray Love- elaborated the prologues of this substantial investigative work of thirteen years: they provide in their prologues a nourished and accurate view of this text book, according to their experiences. The art of the book includes the precious paintings and drawings of Ektor Rivera, Celestino & Ramon Bruin (from the Netherlands). The text arises from a practical & theoretical framework created by Dr. Ariel Orama López that departs from his preparation, experience and knowledge in science, human behavior, natural sciences and performing arts. It includes experiences of the author -with a logbook on his sensible hands- in contexts gifted with creativity and spirituality such as Mexico, California, Spain and Italy. The book appeals to artists, academics, psychologists and to the general public. It is published in Spanish and English.
