Contemplar la realidad desde una perspectiva fantastica. O quizas
acechar y descubrir en la realidad cotidiana algunos de los muchos
mundos diferentes que esta esconde. Tal es el proposito de las tres
historias que componen este libro. Los relatos nos alumbran otras
realidades y nos hacen vivir otras existencias. Nos llevan a
paisajes desconocidos, nos traen nuevas refl exiones. Esa fuerza
creadora es la que mueve a los protagonistas de estas historias. La
primera de ellas, "El viejo, el buho y el nino de la cometa," narra
el encuentro entre un nino sonador y un viejo singular que le ayuda
a explorar los hechos extraordinarios de una realidad de apariencia
del todo cotidiana. Mirar, observar, apreciar lo que nos rodea son
las puertas para penetrar en esos otros mundos que, como dijo Paul
Eluard, existen pero estan en este. Un buho, el vuelo de una
cometa, un parque donde las estaciones van creando un paisaje
cambiante a lo largo del ano, un album de cromos, la lluvia, la
nieve y los demas elementos, los relatos imperecederos de los
buenos libros: todo sirve para llegar a atisbar ese momento magico
por el que penetrar en un mundo distinto. En la segunda, "Una
jornada en el aprendizaje de un principe," el hallazgo de un lugar
en medio de un bosque donde algo parece susurrar historias
fantasticas conduce a un muchacho a un extrano sueno donde los
insectos hablan, un escarabajo guia a un pequeno principe en su
aprendizaje por la fl oresta y el agua, el aire y la luz estan
habitados por sorprendentes espiritus. Un mundo que una vez
encontraron quienes escribieron los cuentos de hadas dejandonos
historias inolvidables que viven para siempre en nuestros
corazones. El tercero de los relatos, "Imaginando historias," viene
a ser una historia de historias, casi al modo de los cuentos
orientales. En el su protagonista, un muchacho lleno de
imaginacion, escribe tres cuentos que va presentando a un certamen
que tiene como premio un viaje al lugar que elija el ganador. "La
sombra del desvan," "A la caza del narval gigante" y "Amor mas alla
del sueno" son las tres historias que imagina, la ultima de las
cuales viene a fundirse con la que el chico ha empezado a vivir en
un sueno que se repite noche tras noche y que acabara haciendose
realidad.
The ongoing crisis in Europe has dramatic impact on the life in
many Southern European cities: Unemployment, social deprivation,
poverty, political instability, severe cuts in the welfare state
budgets and a wide spread feeling of despair have eroded much of
the social foundation of the cities. In this book, contributors
from Spain, Greece, Portugal and Italy provide an insight into the
complex interference between the different aspects of the crisis.
They show that the recent urban crisis is not purely a result of
the budgetary problems of the nation state ("austerity urbanism")
but needs to be seen as multiple contestations. The Crisis of the
City is therefore understood as a result of a changing nation
state, cultural diversity, challenged urban planning and politics
and a globalized economy.
