"The one source that sets reference collections on Latin American studies apart from all other geographic areas of the world.... The Handbook has provided scholars interested in Latin America with a bibliographical source of a quality unavailable to scholars in most other branches of area studies." —Latin American Research Review Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 130 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Lawrence Boudon, of the Library of Congress Hispanic Division, has been the editor since 2000, and Katherine D. McCann has been assistant editor since 1999. The subject categories for Volume 60 are as follows: Art History (including ethnohistory) Literature (including translations from the Spanish and Portuguese) Music Philosophy: Latin American Thought

TRASTORNOS BIPOLARES,

Arte y psicoanálisis

Esta obra se inscribe en el proyecto de investigación “Trauma y psicoanálisis contemporáneo” del Programa de Psicología de la Universidad del Rosario, en conjunto con psicoanalistas e investigadores de la Nueva Escuela Lacaniana, sede Bogotá y sede Caracas, y de la Asociación Mundial de Psicoanálisis. A través de la revisión de casos concretos, de artistas y de sus obras de arte, se exploró el modo singular en que un determinado sujeto puede encontrar en el arte un modo para expresar y resolver sus dificultades psicológicas y a nivel de sus vínculos con los otros. Si bien existe interés generalizado por la relación entre arte y psicoanálisis en diferentes espacios psicoanalíticos y académicos, son escasas las publicaciones y los mecanismos disponibles para profundizar en este campo de estudio. Los autores de este libro intentan hacer asequible el conocimiento derivado no solo al público especializado, sino a un público general que pueda interesarse en las temáticas trabajadas.
