138º Preakness Stakes En La Pantalla De TV Del Hipódromo De San Isidro PRENSAHSI pr [email protected] Se llevará a cabo el sábado 18 de mayo, a las 19.20 horas 138º Preakness Stakes en la pantalla de TV del Hipódromo de San Isidro El sábado 18 de mayo el Hipódromo de San Isidro transmitirá, en directo y con apuestas, las alternativas del prestigioso Preakness Stakes (G1 – 1900 metros, US$ 1.000.000), segunda gema de la Triple Corona de USA, donde participarán los mejores potrillos de tres años del citado país. Esta prueba estará incluida en la programación del sábado y acompañará la realización del Clásico Velocidad (G3 – 1000 metros), para productos de dos años; del Clásico Southern Halo (G3 - 1400 metros), para todo caballo de tres años y más edad, sobre la diagonal de césped; y de la Final San Isidro Million Productos (1000 metros). El Preakness Stakes se llevará a cabo a las 19.20 horas (de Argentina) y se podrá ver en directo. Incluso, se podrán realizar apuestas para la competencia intermedia de la serie selectiva de USA. A continuación se ofrece información sobre la prueba, sobre su historia y la actualidad de la misma. Características El Preakness Stakes es una carrera de G1 que se disputa en USA, sobre 1900 metros (1-3/16 mile), y en la que participan ejemplares pura sangre de carrera, de tres años. Según la tradición, la competencia que repartirá un millón de dólares en premios, se realiza el tercer sábado de mayo, dos semanas después del Kentucky Derby, la carrera que inicia la Triple Corona de USA. Incluso, el lugar de disputa del Preakness es Pimlico Race Course, en Baltimore (Maryland) y la modalidad de peso exige que los machos carguen 126 libras (57 kg) y las hembras 121 (55 kg). Historia Dos años antes que el Kentucky Derby se disputó la primera versión del Preakness Stakes, en 1873. Estructurada para ejemplares de tres años (machos y hembras), recibió un nombre muy particular, por parte del por entonces Gobernador de Maryland, Oden Bowie. El gobernante optó por nominar la prueba en honor al potrillo Preakness, propiedad de Milton Holbrook Sanford, que se convirtió en el primer ganador del Dinner Party Stakes, el día de la apertura de Pimlico, el 25 de octubre de 1870. El primer Preakness Stakes se disputó el 27 de mayo de 1873 y fueron de la partida siete contrincantes. Ahí se destacó el potrillo de John Chamberlain, Survivor (Vandal), al imponerse por diez cuerpos, el mayor margen en la historia de la prueba, hasta 2003. Ocurre que en 2004, Smarty Jones venció por once largos y quebró el margen más extenso, que estaba en poder de aquel primer ganador. En 1890 el Preakness se mudó al Morris Park Racecourse, en el Bronx, New York, donde se realizó durante tres años. De ahí se trasladó por quince años a Gravesend Race Track, en Coney Island, New York; y recién en 1909 regresó a Pimlico, lugar en el que se lleva a cabo actualmente. El Preakness Stakes es la segunda etapa de la Triple Corona de USA, serie que comienza dos semanas antes con el Kentucky Derby, en Churchill Downs, y que culmina tres semanas después con el Belmont Stakes, en Belmont (NY). Desde 1931, el orden de la Triple Corona de USA se estableció tal como se desarrolla en el presente. Es decir: Kentucky Derby (2000 metros), Preakness Stakes (1900 metros) y Belmont Stakes (2400 metros). Antes de 1931, el Preakness se disputó previo al Kentucky Derby en once ocasiones. Incluso, el 12 de mayo de 1917 y el 13 de mayo de 1922, Preakness y Derby se desarrollaron un mismo día. www.hipodromosanisidro.com PRENSAHSI pr [email protected] Récords y curiosidades Entre las victorias más importantes que ofrece la historia del Preakness Stakes, no se pueden obviar las conseguidas por Curlin (2007), Louis Quatorze (1996) y Tank's Prospect (1985), pues los tres comparten el mejor registro para la prueba, sobre 1900 metros: 1m53s2/5. En cuanto a los mayores márgenes, el más extenso es el de Smarty Jones, que en 2004 se impuso por once cuerpos y medio. El primer ganador de la prueba, Survivor, estableció en 1873 una diferencia de diez cuerpos, mientras Funny Cide se adjudicó la edición de 2003, por nueve cuerpos y tres cuartos. Otra diferencia destacada fueron los ocho cuerpos por los que se impuso Count Fleet, en 1943. El Preakness es la prueba de la Triple Corona de USA que cuenta con mayor número de éxitos de hembras. Hasta la actualidad, son cinco las potrancas que derrotaron a los machos en 137 versiones: Flocarline (1903), Whimsical (1906), Rhine Maiden (1915), Nellie Morse (1924) y Rachel Alexandra (2009). En cambio, en el caso del Kentucky Derby y del Belmont Stakes, solo tres hembras pudieron derrotar a los machos en sus historiales. Rachel Alexandra fue la última potranca en ganar el Preakness Stakes, en 2009 En 1918 fueron anotados en el cotejo 26 ejemplares, por lo que la prueba debió dividirse en dos, provocando esto que se registren dos ganadores en la misma temporada: War Cloud y Jack Hare. Actualmente, la carrera está limitada a un lote de 14 participantes, como máximo, y se debe decir que en 1948 se transmitió por primera vez en la televisión, a través de la cadena CBS. Otro punto importante en la historia del Preakness tiene que ver con los cambios de distancia que se registraron a lo largo de los años. Entre 1873 y 1888, y en 1890, la competencia se disputó sobre 2400 metros; en 1889 se llevó a cabo sobre 2000 metros. De 1894 a 1900, y en 1908, se desarrolló sobre 1700 metros; mientras que en 1901 y 1907 se compitió sobre 1670 metros. En 1909 y 1910 se corrió sobre una milla y entre 1911 y 1924 se realizó sobre 1800 metros. Finalmente, desde 1925 y hasta la fecha se coteja sobre 1900 metros (1 3/16 millas).

    RELATIONAL NARRATIVES: CONSTRUCTING MEANING IN CONTEMPORARY LITERATURES IN FRENCH by Rebecca Loescher A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland March, 2017 Abstract The act of narrating permeates daily life: from the tales we tell about our identities to published works of fiction, narratives fundamentally shape human perception. With this in mind, Relational Narratives: Constructing Meaning in Contemporary Literatures in French explores narrative mode as a means for structuring innovative thought-models. Marrying close readings with socio-cultural analyses, it examines relational narrative modes in six works of prose published since the turn of the 1980s: François Bon’s Sortie d’usine (1982), Assia Djebar’s L’Amour, la fantasia (1985), Maryse Condé’s Traversée de la Mangrove (1989), Patrick Chamoiseau’s Texaco (1992), Koffi Kwahulé’s Babyface (2006), and Annie Ernaux’s Les Années (2008). Part One, on narrative voice and temporality, argues that relational narratives bring temporally divergent voices into a single space of resonance. Part Two turns to the portrayal of narrative truths, whether collective, individual, historical, or purely fabricated, as well as to the mixing of genres, which include autobiography, historical realism, testimony, ethnography, and the marvelous. I contend that truth in relational narratives is multiple and shifting, and requires that the reader actively construct meaning. Finally, Part Three examines the political implications of relational narration. First, I show that relational narratives remain fully grounded in specific socio-cultural contexts — or their lieu, the space from which Édouard Glissant contends relation becomes possible.
