1969réf. 209301969. Chicano Mexican-American El Grito: A Journal of Contemporary Mexican-American Thought. Berkley: Quinto Sol Publications 1969-1974. Archive of 2 journals. Each have 84 pages. El Grito was published to highlight scholarship and creative work by Mexican Americans from the United States between 1967 and 1974. Included in this archive are; 1 El Grito: a journal of contemporary Mexican-American thought; vol. II #2 Winter 1969. Highlighted articles include "The Historical and Intellectual Presence of Mexican-Americans" "The Negro Movement as an Anti-Revolution" and collected narratives and poetry by Chicano writers; and 2 Chicano Drama El Grito Book Series; Year VII June-August 1974. The introduction begins with a brief summation of Chicano theatre and it's emphasis on Mayan and Aztec mythology. It's contents include five Chicano dramas written by Alurista Carlos Morton and Alfonso C. Hernandez. El Grito was published by Quinto Sol the first fully independent publishing house to surface from the Chicano movement in the 1960s. The name "Quinto Sol" is Spanish for "Fifth Sun" and it refers to the Aztec myth of creation and destruction. El Grito was the first national academic Chicano literary journal ever published in the U.S. The journal whose name is Spanish for "the Shout" was "intended to raise awareness at what we could call a pan-Chicano/a nationalistic level". Considered an intellectual and independent critical space it became a place where Chicano scholars authors and artists could work to debunk the "culture of poverty" and other negative stereotypes attributed to Mexican Americans in the media at the time. The authors published in El Grito drew attention to the biases in academic realms regarding Mexican-Americans and attempted to rectify these blind spots. The texts became an important resource for those wanting to learn about the newly instituted discipline of Chicano Studies. El Grito also published advertisements geared towards high schools and other university departments to stress the importance of Quinto Sol materials in the classroom. Through the journal El Grito Quinto Sol played a pivotal role in the process of institutionalizing Chicano culture as a legitimate field of inquiry. Binding is tight and pages are clean aside from the title pages having some pencil markings. Overall very good condition. unknown books

réf. 5397EUROPEAN TOUR JOURNAL. Handwritten journal. May 22-December 18 1951. France England Italy and Switzerland. 101 pages. The journal of an American man living in Paris and travelling throughout France and surrounding countries. The early part of the journal describes his daily life in Paris including friends and social life love life gossip literature music and aspirations as a writer. He also writes extensively about tennis of which he was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable fan. He attends an international tennis tournament in Paris in May and goes to London for Wimbledon in late June. The latter two-thirds of the journal recount the authors travels. First he takes a whistle-stop tour of France visiting places such as Rouen Mont St. Michel Biarritz and Lourdes. Then he spends time in Italy and Switzerland before ending up back in Paris. In each location he describes leisure activities visiting museums and churches hotels and the local scenery in greater or lesser detail. Most notably he visits the beaches of Normandy only a few years after D-Day: Finally I got to the tiny hamlet of St. Laurent s Mer & the sign Visitez Ohama Beach. I drove down a quiet road & suddenly burst out onto the beach itself a lonely barren stretch made more so by a high mind to the presence of the resting hulks of invasion craft lying mortally stranded just offshore in an angry green sea. There are piles of rusted neglected equipment corresponding to the wrecks in the water which are being collected together by French workmen. A few campers had pitched their tents amongst gasoline drums huge cannisters & decayed tank. I drove slowly along the beach made muddy by recent rain until I came to what had once been a German gun emplacement which according to a plaque had been utilized on D-Day by the CG of the Engineers as his HQ. The German gun a 37 mm still faced through an aperture staring emptily out at the wrecks offshore. Amongst these latter were the concrete slacks that I guessed to be the remains of the preliminary artificial harbour they had sunk right away. The scene with the forgotten appurtenances of war was one of the most indescribable desolateness & I felt in the grip of the strongest of emotions. June 1944 came back to me & how we heard the news of the invasion over loud-speakers in Hangar AD-1 at Burtonwoof & if I listened carefully I felt I could hear the guns booming & the l/cs chugging up to shore & the GIs splashing out in the cold water & moving slowly but desperately up the beach pinned down by the German fire from concrete emplacements & from the high green eminence which rises abruptly from the beach & runs all along the shore. How many men had met their end right where I was standing How many had coughed out their hopes & their life in the din of that horror never understanding why it had to happen to them But I couldnt ear a thing only the sound of the wind & the sea and all I could see were those obscene wrecks & the Frenchmen working among them. This lively journal is in fine condition overall and the writing is uniformly easy to read. unknown books
