This book brings to English readers, in its entirety for the first
time, a translation of Jose Watanabe's Antigona, accompanied by the
original Spanish text and critical essays. The lack of availability
in English has resulted in the absence of Antigona from important
Anglophone studies devoted specifically to the reception of ancient
Greek tragedy in the Americas. Perez Diaz's translation fills this
gap. The introduction provides the performative, political, and
historical contexts in which the text was written in collaboration
with the actress Teresa Ralli, from the Peruvian theater group
Yuyachkani, who also originally performed it. Following the
bilingual text, a critical essay provides an analysis of textual
aspects of Antigona that have been disregarded, situating it in
relation to Sophocles' Antigone and in conversation with relevant
moments of the vast traditions of reception of the Greek tragedy.
An appendix briefly surveys some notable productions of the play
throughout Latin America. This comprehensive volume provides an
invaluable resource for readers interested in Jose Watanabe's work,
students and scholars working on classical reception and Latin
American literature and theatre, as well as theatre practitioners.

The very diversity that America was founded on now seems to be
turning on itself. Instead of seeing our individual differences as
a source of national strength, we're dispatching them as daggers in
our American identity. America is steadily splitting along
political, gender, color and cultural lines, battling it out over
controversial issues like racism, immigration, terrorism, and even
patriotism and American pride. What is the verdict for a country of
citizens who don blinders and boxing gloves in the face of opposing
points of view? What type of "American Identity" will we leave for
the next generation? In Red, White, and Latina 3-time Emmy Award
winner, 2-time author, entertainment personality, and proud
American Latina, Cristina Perez dissects these issues and proposes
a new unified outlook for America based on common sense, common
values, and common ground. She delivers a no-holds-barred and
non-biased look inside the most heated conversations in America
today, examining the headlines, evidence, and hearsay, before
delivering her verdict for each one.

United States without papers? What could prevent you from getting a
green card? What are the different types of visas? You'll also find
"Warnings" to protect you from fraudulent offers and the risk of
deportation. Most important, Cortes informs you of your rights,
because whether you're a legal immigrant or not, you do have
rights.

she is about to leave for college or is getting married -- will

your roots and staying true to your identity will guide you down
