La influencia de la Cábala en la obra de Juana García Abás y José Luis Fariñas de Cuba
Este estudio trata de la obra de Juana García Abás y José Luis Fariñas, dos judío-cubanos contemporáneos, y cómo su arte es imbuido por la Cábala. La poesía de García Abás, discutida aquí, es poeta es muy compleja, pero sigue una lógica cabalista en su exploración de cómo funciona el universo. Como los textos cabalísticos, esta poesía no es lineal; es una fusión de símbolos y referencias poco conocidas se relacionan en maneras poco esperadas. Far…
Argentine Jews or Jewish Argentines? Essays on Ethnicity, Identity, and Diaspora
In the introduction to Argentine Jews or Jewish Argentines?, Raanan Rein calls for a change in Latin American Jewish Studies away from an essentialist approach that focuses almost exclusively on the Jews of one or more Latin American countries. He proposes that Jewish Latin Americans should be studied as an ethnic group that interacts with other groups and navigates the social structures within a certain place. In this way he distances himself fr…
Diáspora y exilio
In this mixture of family history and autobiography, Eduardo D. Faingold describes a family’s reaction to the terror, displacement, and seeming randomness of Argentina’s Dirty War. It is a book about personal adaptation and family cohesion. Diáspora y exilio is clearly not an academic study of the Dirty War (known in Argentina as the Proceso). Rather, the author tells the story from the point of view of an average Argentine Jew in an extended fam…
The Jewish Diaspora in Latin America and the Caribbean
The Jewish Diaspora in Latin America and the Caribbean is an excellent and sorely needed introduction to Jewish life in Latin America and, at the same time, to the field Latin American Jewish studies. The editor Kristin Ruggiero sought to build on earlier work and show a broad sweep of current research. She has succeeded on both counts. The chapters (most written for this volume but some previously published) represent the work of leading scholar…
Career Development For the Language Professional
Too often, foreign language professionals just let their careers happen, each academic year following the last. However, there is no reason that this should be so. Careers should be viewed as living, changeable entities. Career management is a type of self‐empowerment by which you take control of your professional life. This article includes descriptions of successful careers in language teaching as told by the professionals themselves. Suggestio…
Concoctions”
“Concoctions” constitutes a style of small group and pair activities that have proved highly successful in stimulating language interaction in a wide variety of instructional settings. Unlike many group activities, “Concoctions” are built around tasks which are fanciful and ambiguous. They involve unusual problems to be solved, a limited use of role play, and humor. Since many factors are at work during any group activity, it is difficult to esta…
We, the Generation in the Wilderness
Experiential Techniques that Promote Cross‐Cultural Awareness
Experiential techniques, some of which take only a few minutes of class time, can help make students aware of what culture is and how it functions. These activities may take the form of structured in‐class activities dealing with non‐verbal and other culture‐bound behavior, or out‐of‐class activities in which students observe and interact with the target culture. Structured class visits by native informants and field trips to ethnic neighborhoods…
Creative Problem‐Solving for the Foreign Language Class
A bstract Small‐group activities which require problem‐solving allow students to practice creative thinking and foreign language skills simultaneously. Known techniques for stimulating creativity can be adapted to the language class. In the model suggested, creative problem‐solving activities are built around problems that are clearly defined, admit many possible solutions, and entail a situation in which reality is slightly skewed. While working…
