Conaculta and Politics and Literature: The gesticulador

Again and after a long time,

The gesticulador Usigli Rodolfo is in theaters. In the series of the literature of the Mexican Revolution, reviewed by Antonio Castro Leal and published in two volumes legendary Aguilar, the playwright should be a place of honor, but the work cited refers only to the novel, then we are missing the third time studies of that peculiar power of its own, which starts with The

beneath Mariano Azuela and has not exhausted the fascination with the epic motion. Unfortunately, the dazzling novels inspired by the Revolution, have left little space for the theater.

The gesticulador is not the revolutionary era, as Felipe Angeles Elena Garro, but some of the results of the movement and institutionalized. Usigli is the pinnacle of Mexican drama in this work was censored and sharp criticism, shows the falsity of Mexican politics, the ease with which the politician lies, the tricks used to ascend to power, the simulation. There are traitors, liars, the "revolutionary" without ideals, a tragic story that has been repeated without fatigue among us Mexicans. Few escape the Usigli central thesis: the movement degenerated into farce. If, Azuela, Magdaleno, Munoz, Guzman were real heroes in this play what prevails is the ambitious man who has discovered that its ability to deceive and knowledge can come to power. Retains an idealistic sentiment among its goals is to do good, who plays heroic dream César Rubio, treacherously murdered namesake general.

The plot is clever and striking that has made Rudolph Usigli a work whose content is severe, especially considering that the work is seventy-year-old. If today the political bureaucracy does not tolerate criticism, I do not imagine what it was at the premiere. Casas Argentina Olloqui, wife of the playwright, in an autobiography, My Life with Rodolfo Usigli , writes the political results of the staging of a seminal work: "... Rodolfo lost his job because he resigned from the chief of theater Fine Arts for its part could be represented and they all jumped him, insulted, beaten, and for a year and a half spent hunger and misery. "This despite the initial success. The work was not only technically innovative but it was too much for the political bureaucracy of the time when censorship was visible and monstrous. Today it seems that censorship has disappeared, at least say no more out of Los Pinos, which is lounging on other sites, some media who treasure their political interests and children. Times have been changed. In the first stage of the literature of the Revolution, where they talk of major combat, we walked to the complaint about the outcome of the quest. We gesturing town, charlatans and demagogues. Politics is a quagmire. From tragedy to farce. In literature, it was Jorge who with
Ibargüengoitia August Lightning
made the turn and made the satire of the genre. Carlos Fuentes novels we presented initial decline of the movement: a new bourgeoisie away from greatness and a political class authoritarian, despotic and corrupt. The gesticulador Usigli is a major work because it remains the perfect picture or metaphor of national policy. Great literature is often the best satire of a system like ours. There has been criticism more ruthless than, say, Shadow of the Caudillo

of Martin Luis Guzman. Neither story so drastic revolutionary excesses as the work of Rafael F. Muñoz. Is there anything to celebrate with gesticulador today?

How To Become Deception Expert

The best writers: Armando Jimenez and Recognition Tribute

One of the last friends of my father to die, was Armando Jimenez, the celebrated Mexican author

Picardy, a work which to date has about 150 editions and sales of nearly four million copies. Born in 1913, my father in 1911, who by 1960 was presented to me. If Salvador Novo focused his attention primarily on the middle and upper class, Armando Jimenez did in poor neighborhoods, bars, pulque and slums of the big city, whose transformation of small provincial city and romantic air to megacity, was able to attend. He was a tenacious observer of Mexican humor generally vulgar and witty. Was frequently seen entering the filthiest bathrooms in the most sordid bars in search of phrases, graffiti, call them now, which proved the sharpness of the Mexican prosaic. The results are amazing.

not veiled in Fine Arts or put a rainbow flag on the coffin, he went quietly, leaving special memories of him and his work. Ángeles González Gamio, another earnest chronicler of Mexico City, wrote a memorable article on the figure that we were so familiar to all those who made their own journeys, those who were adventurers facing countless wonders in the night-time Mexico very peculiar and very us. Without doubt the best of Armando Jimenez was his sympathy and his conversation sprinkled with jokes, jokes and memories of all those bars, pulque, bars, dance halls, cabarets and brothels that had come with patience and care. Was of the lineage of Andrés Henestrosa and Renato Leduc. Worship in their own way, with a notable popular wisdom, witty and able to drink any amount of drinks. The last time I saw him was at The Golden Rooster, led a small delegation of three or four gringos showed them our past glory.

If I had any doubts about the Salon Mexico, he cleared me, I wanted to know where they were illustrated pulquerías Frida, gave me the exact data and names of his aides. If you wanted to know the list of famous guests Sanborns Pardiñas or tiles, I recited in list. I remember one afternoon in front of the sun and then in opera, where Ali was Chumacero with young poets, Armando talked, like Ulysses, a journey back to Ithaca, home, passing through Denver, El infiernito, the Bluebeard the White House (where I met several times to the extraordinary Cuban boxer Butter Naples), The Donkey, The Ball, the Dandy, the twentieth century and some others. Names famous whores, characters who used to visit them regular customers looking to drink in the company of women taking their profession seriously. As stated by Ángeles González Gamio, the great chronicler Jiménez used to take photographs to document what he saw. He carried a notebook to record how much of popular talent show was in smelly bathrooms and wonderful wall dives. Some of it used for its own account, Nipongo Nikito journalist, who in his columns filled with wit and as enemies of the Royal Academy, trucks and signs put some perverse phrases found in the streets. Armando Jimenez files should be significant.

Although born in Piedras Negras, Coahuila, Armando was a perfect chilango. Friendly, intelligent, witty, a man who could live where they wanted and do what he liked: Chronicles of popular culture, collect the legends of the city, its celebrities, intellectuals and journalists, and especially their dark, discrete characters, such they just have one name and register your journey through life, people who sought or are seeking (I do not know) some desmadrienta life of the city where politicians could close the little shop and take to bed with the best old to spend the budget on alcohol and dancing mambo danzones or so very funny, in the smoke, sweat, cheap perfume and occasionally a good fistfight. Armando

city came to a very peculiar and when the world was investigated and lived was gone. Today, family restaurants and bars are the customers are naive clerks, housewives looking for excitement, parents with their children ... The pulquerías close, the funds have been replaced by boring chain restaurants. Young people ask ligth drinks. The old and fun folklore is gone forever, it screwed globalization. It remains to be the old neighborhoods mocking and witty spirit of Armando Jimenez, scaring good conscience, as he did when he intervened in the controversy sparked by the publication of

The Children of Sanchez, Diaz Ordaz book considered obscene and full of nonsense. I can still remember the laughter of Armando in commenting on the folly that took place in the media, among whom were the Puritan side and supporters of Oscar Lewis. My friend loved the swearing admired.
