"The spectacular international success of the Spanish sculptor Juan Muñoz has tended to encourage a critical framing of the artist's work within narratives of global postmodernist innovation. This book, the first in-depth study of the central idea of silence in Muñoz's work, aims to position him more clearly within his historical moment, by reading his work against the silences of Spanish politics and culture in post-Civil War Spain. Drawing on a wealth of documents, beginning with Muñoz's student notebooks, the book shows how silence and memory defined and shaped his art. A range of methodologies from within Muñoz's own intellectual horizon is applied to explore a progression from the implied silences of his sculptural installations to the literal sounds and silences of his first radio piece. Muñoz's silencing strategies are analysed across different mediums, both visual and verbal, to show how his art probes and reanimates the uncanny memory of Spain's traumatic past"--

Exploring Latin@ theologies and the power of revelation.The Word Became Culture enacts a preferential option for culture, retrieving experiences and expressions from across latinidad as sources of theologizing and acts of resistance to marginaliza­tion. Each author in this edited volume demonstrates the many ways in which Latin@ theologies are disruptive, generative, and creative spaces rooted in the richness, struggles, texts, and rituals found at the intersections of faith and culture. With a foreword by Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, president emeritus of the Pontifical Council for Culture, this book situates Latin@ theologies in the ongoing search for and recognition of the "Word becoming" within the particularities of diverse cultural experiences.
