Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Congo-Ocean railroad stands as one of the deadliest construction projects in history. It was completed in 1934, when Equatorial Africa was a French colony, and it stands as one of the deadliest construction projects in history. Colonial workers were subjects of an ostensibly democratic nation whose motto read 'Liberty, Equality, Fraternity', but liberal ideals were savaged by a cruelly indifferent administrative state. African workers were conscripted at gunpoint, separated from their families and subjected to hellish conditions as they hacked their way through dense tropical foliage; excavated by hand thousand of tonnes of earth in order to lay down track; blasted their way through rock to construct tunnels; or risked their lives building bridges over otherwise impassable rivers. In the process, they suffered disease, malnutrition and rampant physical abuse, likely resulting in at least 20,000 deaths. The Tragedy of the Congo-Ocean Railroad captures in vivid detail the experiences of the men, women and children who toiled on the railroad, and forces a reassessment of the moral relationship between modern industrialised empires and what could be called global humanitarian impulses the desire to improve the lives of people outside of Europe.

"Peribáñez y el Comendador de Ocaña" es una de las más famosas comedias de Lope de Vega perteneciente a un género que podría denominarse de "comendadores". En ella el honor, ideal crucial del drama barroco, encuentra una plasmación artística notable y casi paradigmática y se refleja su código estricto y la organización social que lo sustenta. Una vez reparado el conflicto, provocado por la pasión y llevado a cabo mediante un abuso de poder, aparece el orden rígido de la España del XVII que tiene en la Monarquía la cúspide política y, en cierto sentido, religiosa.…
