-- 120 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. -- Summary (from amazon.com):
Zacchaeus starts with Z, the last letter of the alphabet.
Displaced by nature and vocation: Zacchaeus was born
albino, with whiter than white hair and skin, in a family
of dark people. He was born an artist, although his family
can't imagine what that is. He's poor, but he goes to a
rich man's school - his father's boss is really a generous
guy. We met and became Zacchaeus in his trivial and also
remarkable moments: the discovery that his father has
another family, the friction with his marginal brother, the
pathetic attempts to unravel the opposite sex. Even in a
city of 12 million people, Zacchaeus looks for his place,
perhaps in vain, but he does. He knows that São Paulo will
devour him sooner or later. -- Alternative genre. -- Call

Publishers, 2019. -- 156 p. : col. ill. ; 23 cm. -- Summary
(from amazon.com via OCLC): "I Was Their American Dream is
at once a coming-of-age story and a reminder of the
thousands of immigrants who come to America in search for a
better life for themselves and their children. The daughter
of parents with unfulfilled dreams themselves, Malaka
navigated her childhood chasing her parents' ideals,
learning to code-switch between her family's Filipino and
Egyptian customs, adapting to white culture to fit in,
crushing on skater boys, and trying to understand the
tension between holding onto cultural values and trying to
be an all-American kid. Malaka Gharib's triumphant graphic
memoir brings to life her teenage antics and illuminates
earnest questions about identity and culture, while
providing thoughtful insight into the lives of modern
immigrants and the generation of millennial children they
raised. Malaka's story is a heartfelt tribute to the
American immigrants who have invested their future in the
promise of the American dream." -- Autobiographical genre.

The Tyranny of Silence : How One Cartoon Ignited a Global
Debate on the Future of Free Speech / Flemming Rose. --
Washington, D.C. : CATO Institute Press, 2014. -- 237 p. ;
24 cm. -- Includes bibliographical references and index. --
Summary (from publisher via OCLC): When the Danish
newspaper Jyllands-Posten (Viby, Denmark) published the
cartoons of the prophet Mohammed nine years ago, Denmark
found itself at the center of a global battle about the
freedom of speech. The paper's culture editor, Flemming
Rose, defended the decision to print the 12 drawings, and
he quickly came to play a central part in the debate about
the limitations to freedom of speech in the 21st century.
Since then, Rose has visited universities and think tanks
and participated in conferences and debates around the
globe in order to discuss tolerance and freedom. In The
Tyranny of Silence, Flemming Rose writes about the people
and experiences that have influenced the way he views the
world and his understanding of the crisis, including
meetings with dissidents from the former Soviet Union and
ex-Muslims living in Europe. He provides a personal account
of an event that has shaped the debate about what it means
to be a citizen in a democracy and how to coexist in a
world that is increasingly multicultural, multi-religious,
and multi-ethnic. -- -- Caricatures and cartoons. -- Call

del inglés por Jorge L. Catalá Carrasco. p. 61-74 in La
Revista Latinoamericana de Estudios Sobre la Historieta, v.
8, no. 30 (June 2008). -- Resumen: "Cuando se trata de
historias nacionales dentro de la memoria popular de los
cubanos, viene al la mente el personaje animado de Juan
Padrón, Elpidio Valdés, un oficial Mambi del Ejército
Libertador de 1895. Este ensayo analiza en primer lugar
cómo Elpidio, que es emblemático de la cubanidad, refleja
todo aquello que significa ser cubano; cómo su amor, María
Silvia, representa el papel que las mujeres han adoptado en
Cuba a lo largo del proceso revolucionario; y cómo las
historietas de Elpidio y su grupo a un nivel muy humana y
real continúan reafirmado la fuerza y la perseverancia de
los cubanos en su historia." -- Abstract: "When attending
to national stories within the popular memory of the Cuban
people, Juan Padrón Blanco's animated figure Elpidio
Valdés, a Mambi officer from the Ejército Libertador of
1895, comes to mind. This article first examines how
Elpidio, emblematic of Cubanidad, reflects all of what it
means to be Cuban; how his love interest Maria Silvia
represents the role that women have taken on in Cuba
throughout the revolutionary process; and how the stories
of Elpidio and his entourage, on a very real, human level,
continue to reaffirm the strength and perseverance of the
Cuban people for all times." -- Abstracts as printed with

"Copi : el Fuera de Campo" / Laura Vanesa Vazquez. p. 75-86 in
La Revista Latinoamericana de Estudios Sobre la Historieta,
v. 8, no. 30 (June 2008). -- Resumen: "La importancia
central de la obra historietistica de Raúl Damonde Taborda
(Copi) reside en la condición paradigmática de su
producción en el campo de la narrativa dibujada. Obviamente
que este trabajo no puede suplir un estudio que requeriria
de una investigación profunda y sistemática, sin embargo,
entiendo que puede fijar algunos ejes productivos para
futuros análisis. El ensayo pretende, por un lado, recorrer
la producción historietistica del autor publicada en
distintos medios gráficos trazando un periodo que va desde
el exilio político hasta un quiebre en su trayectoria
artistica. Por último, cabe resaltar que la obra gráfica
del autor es fundamental no solo para profundiza los
estudios sobre el campo de la historeta y el humor gráfico
sino también, para pensar cuestiones más amplias. Dicho en
otros términos: su producción resulta peculiar no solo
porque habilita el análisis de un tipo de alegorización
particular, sino porque en ese mismo gesto, se trasciende a
si misma." -- Abstract: "The central importance of the
comics work of Raúl Damonde Taborda (Copi) resides in the
special qualities of his production in the comics field.
Obviously, this work cannot replace a proper study that
would require a deep and systematic investigation,
nevertheless, I believe that it can establish some
productive axes for future analyses. This paper tries, on
one hand, to analyze the comics production of an author
which was published in different graphical media, taking a
broad view over a period that starts with his political
exile and ends in a breakthrough of his artistic
trajectory. Finally, it is possible to point out that the
graphical work of the author is fundamental not only to
deepen the studies about comics and strips but also to
approach broader subjects. In other words: his production
is peculiar not only because it allows the analysis of a
particular type of allegory, but because at the same time
it transcends itself." -- Abstracts as printed with the

el Exilio : El Caso de Argentina" / Manuel Barrero. p.
100-120 in La Revista Latinoamericana de Estudios Sobre la
Historieta, v. 8, no. 30 (June 2008). -- Resumen: "Los
paises latinoamericanos han atravesado periodos de crisis
política y económica que ha afectado a la industria de sus
publicaciones, entre ellas las de historietas. En el
presente ensayo se revisa el caso de Argentina, cuyos
autores publicaron sus obras episódicamente en un clima de
falta de libertades, totalmente represivo tras la
instauración de llamado Proceso. En el presente ensayo se
concluye que las migraciones de argentinos hacia otros
mercados del cómic fueron motivadas por razones económicas
antes que políticas, que los casos de critica al gobierno
militar practicados desde el interior fueron tímidos, y se
hicieron desde la metáforo o la sátira, y que los autores
exilados por razones aparentement ideológicos ejercitaron
una suerte de olvido de las atrocidades cometidas durante
la dictadura militar sin interesarse abiertamente por
elaborar historietas de denuncia." -- Abstract: "Periods of
political and economic crisis in Latin American countries
have affected the comics publication industry. We review
the case of Argentina, whose authors occasionally had to
publish their works in a climate of lack of freedoms,
totally repressive with the introduction of the so-called
Proceso. We conclude that migration into other markets of
comics was motivated by economic reasons rather than
political reasons; that the criticism of the military
governments was timid, and were made through metaphor or
satire; and that the authors exiled for apparently
idological reasons perferred not to directly address the
atrocities committed during the military dictatorship,
producing only some mild complaints in their work." --
