But here is a partial list: New silent-action clutch; seats re-designed for greater comfort; new five-bearing crankshaft of finest alloy steel; new starting system; new steering ease; easier gear shifting; softer pedal action; new muffler; smart new lines and colors. Take the car out for a trial. Experience for yourself the new smoothness, quietness and ease of handling; and remember that these finer results are in addition to an enviable record for long life and low cost of operation and maintenance.

    Septiembre a diciembre de 2015 History of Beauty Comentarios, anécdotas y relatos sobre los concursos de belleza. Tomo I Pepe Medel Septiembre a diciembre de 2015 Contenido general Presentación……………………………………………………………………………………………. 2 1 Septiembre……………………………………………………………………………………. 3 Octubre…………………………………………………………………………………………. 42 Noviembre……………………………………………………………………………………… 90 Diciembre………………………………………………………………………………………. 126 Presentación Muchos de los lectores de mi blog personal en Facebook History of Beauty (https://www.facebook.com/historiadelabelleza) me han solicitado que republique algunas de las notas que han considerado interesantes y que en su momento no pudieron leer y que además por el tiempo en que las publiqué, es muy difícil buscarlas en la página, a pesar de señalarles la fecha en que las subí a la red. Ante esta situación decidí re trabajar cada una de las notas y organizarlas a manera de un libro en línea que rescate todos esos comentarios y que los interesados lo puedan bajar de 2 la red, imprimir, coleccionar o lo que ustedes decidan. Esta colección que publicaré cuatrimestralmente se denomina: History of Beauty. Comentarios, anécdotas y relatos sobre los concursos de belleza. Es por esto que con mucho gusto les presento el primer tomo de este esfuerzo, el cual comprende las notas publicadas desde la aparición de mi blog el 9 de septiembre de 2015 y comprende hasta la última aportación subida en diciembre del mismo año. Esta publicación incluye las 185 fotografía empleadas en las diversas notas que escribí durante el último cuatrimestre del año 2015 y que en algunos casos, son fotografías que solicitaron subiera y yo aproveché para hacer un breve artículo. Espero que con la lectura de este tomo, los jóvenes aficionados a los concursos de belleza puedan encontrar los orígenes de nuestra pasión y los que ya son grandes conocedores del tema, logren revivir la emoción que nos siguen causando los certámenes que, al menos a mí, se han convertido en parte de mi vida y han convivido conmigo por más de 50 años.

Octavio Paz "La Libertad, Sancho, es uno de los más preciosos dones que a los hombres dieron los cielos; con ella no pueden igualarse los tesoros que encierra la tierra ni el mar encubre; por la libertad así como por la honra se puede y debe aventurar la vida, y, por el contrario, el cautiverio es el mayor mal que puede venir a los hombres". Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra. 2 Desde las orillas del Sena A mis nietos Victoria y Cristóbal. 3 Desde las orillas del Sena I-Camajuaní (1949-1959) Mi último Día de Reyes en 1959 en Camajuaní Viví mi infancia en un pueblo cubano llamado Camajuaní. Está situado en un verde valle tropical cruzado por los ríos Sagua y Camajuaní, así como por arroyos y donde numerosas palmeras ofrecen sus penachos al viento para que los haga mecer, junto a cañaverales y vegas de tabaco. En un día como hoy muchos recuerdos vienen a mi mente en este frío París, con su cielo gris y la llovizna que no cesa desde ayer. Mi familia era pobre, mi madre despalilladora explotada desde la edad de 7 años por The General Cigars, ganaba solo 22 pesos al mes y mi padre policía ganaba 105 pesos. Sin embargo, mi infancia, transcurrió muy feliz, íbamos en un jeep que le prestaba un gran amigo a mi padre hasta Caibarién y allí tomábamos la lancha para ir a Los Ensenachos y/o Cayo Conuco.

  • Böske Simon, Miss Hungaria and Miss Europa (1929): Beauty Pageants and Packaging Gender, Race, and National Identity in Interwar Hungary.” Hungarian Cultural Studies
    Vasvári, Louise O. “Böske Simon, Miss Hungaria and Miss Europa (1929): Beauty Pageants and Packaging Gender, Race, and National Identity in Interwar Hungary.” Hungarian Cultural Studies. e-Journal of the American Hungarian Educators Association, Volume 12 (2019) DOI: 10.5195/ahea.2019.360 Böske Simon, Miss Hungaria and Miss Europa (1929): Beauty Pageants and Packaging Gender, Race, and National Identity in Interwar Hungary* Louise O. Vasvári Abstract: In this interdisciplinary article that draws on the intersections of Hungarian and Jewish Studies within a framework of cultural studies and gender studies, Louise O. Vasvári investigates the socio-political role of beauty pageants in 1920s European and— more specifically—in Hungarian social, political and cultural life. The article is structured as a case study of the life of Böske Simon, who was born into a bourgeois Jewish family in 1909 and who won the first Miss Hungaria competition in 1929, soon followed by the title of Miss Europa. Vasvári aims to place Simon’s role as Hungarian beauty queen in a broader focus by examining from a gender perspective the international development of beauty pageants, of the illustrated press, and of commercial beauty culture in the 1920s. She examines the symbolic space allotted to the concept “Modern Girl,” who in the interwar [re]construction of gender and national identities came to represent both the enticements and the dangers of modernity. More specifically, she examines how the problematic gender representation of women in such pageants and their reception by the press and by the public interact in the broader interwar nationalistic cultural sphere in post- Trianon Hungary.
