...attempt to substitute other values for those of democratic, bourgeois society." His best-known works include El Laberinto de la Soledad (The Labyrinth of Solitude), an essay on Mexican character described by Irving Howe as "a central text of our time" and long metaphysical poems like Piedra de sol (Sun Stone) and Blanco...
...autonomy negotiations ended in the Tel Aviv suburb of Herzlia two weeks ago, Cairo's negotiators have grumbled about the timid conceptual approach adopted by the U.S. at the bargaining table.
