APUNTES PARA UNA SEMBLANZA En uno de sus Escolios a un texto implícito, Nicolás Gómez Dávila ha escrito: “Las dos alas de la inteligencia son la erudición y el amor.” Pues bien: la inteligencia de María Luisa Dañobeitia como profesora de literatura ― inteligencia lectora e inteligencia docente — ilustra, a mi entender, a la perfección el aserto del egregio pensador colombiano. En efecto, ante los ojos admirados de sus alumnos ― entre los que he tenido la suerte de contarme ―, María Luisa Dañobeitia desplegaba, poderosa e imponente, el ala de su erudición, erudición en las tres acepciones que de este vocablo recoge el Diccionario de la Real Academia Española: “1. Instrucción en varias ciencias, artes y otras materias. 2. Amplio conocimiento de los documentos relativos a una ciencia o arte. 3. Lectura varia, docta y bien aprovechada.” Y desplegaba, asimismo, atractiva y cautivadora, el ala de su amor: amor por la literatura, por el libro, por el texto que en cada momento constituía el objeto de su explicación en clase. Se notaba enseguida que a María Luisa Dañobeitia el texto le importaba, le interesaba, le atañía, la entusiasmaba, no sólo profesional, académicamente, sino también personal, vitalmente; el alumno lo notaba, sí, y, lo que es más, quedaba pronto contagiado de su entusiasmo. Se diría que María Luisa Dañobeitia, profesora de literatura y, por ende, lectora “profesional”, ha conservado siempre ― y siempre ha sabido transmitir a sus alumnos ― la pasión por la literatura que caracteriza al apasionado lector aficionado. Y en las alas de su inteligencia — como “en las alas del canto” en el poema de Heine, musicado por Mendelssohn ― nos llevaba María Luisa Dañobeitia a sus alumnos a descubrir y explorar los más diversas regiones del vasto mundo de las bellas letras en lengua inglesa: de Shakespeare a Richardson, de Marlowe a Dickens, de Thomas Hardy a Iris Murdoch. Los que hemos recibido su magisterio seguro que no olvidaremos nunca a María Luisa Dañobeitia (la magia de María Luisa Dañobeitia) explicando Doctor Faustus o Great Expectations. En clase, con esos textos abiertos entre sus manos, María Luisa Dañobeitia, en su elemento natural, diríase que se transfiguraba ante nosotros, sus alumnos. Como se transfigura al hablar del libro que acaba de leer o está aún leyendo, al contar sus impresiones de la última película que ha visto, al dar noticia de los resultados de sus más recientes investigaciones, al hablar de antiguos alumnos con los que sigue en contacto y cuyas vidas no le son en absoluto ajenas, o al exponer, con su habitual lucidez, sus ideas sobre lo que pasa ― nos pasa ― en el mundo. Como se transfigura ― xiv también, y de un modo especial ― ante el lienzo en que está trabajando, el pincel suspenso entre sus dedos, mientras gira en su viejo tocadiscos un disco de vinilo y Violetta Valéry canta “la cruz y la delicia” ― “croce e delizia”― de su amor recién descubierto. Ángel Enrique Díaz-Pintado Hilario Mª Luisa es una de esas profesoras que parecen saber todo sobre todo. Recuerdo estar en clase con ella y ver cómo era capaz de hilar un tema con otro, de contarte la historia de las distintas versiones de Parsifal, a la vez que extraía hasta el más mínimo matiz de los significados implícitos en un texto. En clase de Mª Luisa, todos nos quedábamos escuchando en silencio, fascinados, queriendo aprender. Futuros profesores de Filología la mayoría de nosotros, todos queríamos beber de esa sabiduría que parecía inagotable. Nunca lo dijimos, pero en nuestro silencio, todos nos sabíamos aspirantes a alcanzar ese grial de conocimientos, de excelencia docente. En efecto, nunca lo dijimos, pero aún hoy, todos sabemos cuál es el grial que perseguimos en nuestra búsqueda diaria: las clases de Mª Luisa encierran la respuesta. Isabel Andrés Cuevas Gracias, Mª Luisa, por ser una profesora entusiasta y una compañera generosa... Se te echará mucho de menos. Pilar Villar Argáiz Es difícil hacer una semblanza de una gran amiga y más aún si ésta semblanza ha de ser breve. Como profesional, investigadora y docente María Luisa Dañobeitia ha sido mi maestra. Lo que escribo, lo que he escrito y lo que confío en seguir escribiendo está condicionado por lo que ella tuvo la generosidad de enseñarme: leer debajo de las palabras, utilizar mi imaginación y, sobre todo, no tener miedo al texto. María Luisa me enseñó a revolverlo, a trastornarlo y a destruirlo en clases que me

Justin Cobb (LOU PUCCI) still sucks his thumb at 17. He wants to stop and knows that his thumbsucking is disrupting his family, his love life and his identity. The only thing that changes his behavior is hypnosis therapy administered by his “guru” orthodontist. But while Justin felt this would solve all his problems and he would finally be “normal,” his troubles were really just beginning. Thumbsucking was only a symptom of a deep-seated fear: that he and his father aren’t good enough for his mother, and that she would leave them. Thumbsucking was the only way to soothe this fear. Once that is gone Justin spirals into manic behavior, is diagnosed with ADHD and put on Ritalin, which becomes a substitute for his thumb. When the high of the prescription drugs and a newfound success at school crash, Justin turns to pot and sex to replace his thumb.

  • The Door in the Floor
    “UNA MUJER INFIEL” The Door in the Floor∗ (la puerta en piso) es un film del 2004 escrito y dirigido por Tod Williams, producido por Anne Carey, Ted Hope y Michael Corrente, para Focus Features, Reverse Pictures y This Is That Productions. El magnífico trabajo de fotografía estuvo a cargo de Terry Stacey; Marcelo Zarvos realizó la composición musical; Thérèse DePrez, el diseño de producción y Affonso Gonçalves el trabajo de edición. Jeff Bridges y Kim Basinger interpretan los roles protagónicos de Ted y Marion Cole; Jon Foster interpreta a Eddie O’Hare; Elle Fanning, a la pequeña Ruth Cole y Mimi Rogers, completa el elenco interpretando a Evelyn Vaughn. El film está basado en la novela de John Irving A Widow for One Year (1998); más pre- cisamente, en el primer tercio de dicha novela donde la protagonista de los dos tercios restantes, es decir, la que será la “viuda por una año”, tiene aquí sólo cuatro años y un rol bastante menos protagónico. Resulta comprensible, entonces, que el director haya elegido para el film un título distinto al de la novela, más apropiado a su trama. Lamen- tablemente, en las distribuidoras suelen primar los criterios comerciales por sobre los estéticos, y dado que la novela se tradujo al español con el título de “Una mujer difícil”, en España el film se estrenó con ese título, seguramente en alusión a la madre de la “mujer difícil” de la novela. Menos claros resultan los motivos por los cuales el film se estrenó en la Argentina con el título de “Una mujer infiel”, dado que nada en la trama que el film narra parece justificar dicho título.

The pair are two outsiders constrained by po- lite society but bound together by a natural chemistry and progressive ideas that are beyond the boundaries of their age and time. Mary and Percy declare their love for each other and much to her family's horror they run away together, joined by Mary's half-sister Claire. In the midst of growing tension within their relationship during their stay at Lord Byron's house at Lake Geneva, the idea of Frankenstein is conceived when a challenge is put to all houseguests to write a ghost story. An incredible character is created, which will loom large in popular culture for centuries to come, but society at the time puts little value in female authors.

  • The Men Who Stare at Goats
    Presents THE MEN WHO STARE AT GOATS Production Notes 1 THE MEN WHO STARE AT GOATS SYNOPSIS In a comedic look at real life events that are almost too bizarre to believe, a reporter discovers a top-secret wing of the U.S. military when he accompanies an enigmatic Special Forces operator on a mind-boggling mission. Reporter Bob Wilton (Ewan McGregor) is in search of his next big story when he encounters Lyn Cassady (Academy Award ® winner George Clooney), a shadowy figure who claims to be part of an experimental U.S. military unit. According to Cassady, the New Earth Army is changing the way wars are fought. A legion of “Warrior Monks” with unparalleled psychic powers can read the enemy’s thoughts, pass through solid walls, and even kill a goat simply by staring at it. Now, the program’s founder, Bill Django (Oscar ® nominee Jeff Bridges), has gone missing and Cassady’s mission is to find him. Intrigued by his new acquaintance’s far-fetched stories, Bob impulsively decides to tag along. When the pair tracks Django to a clandestine training camp run by renegade psychic Larry Hooper (two-time Oscar ® winner Kevin Spacey), the reporter is trapped in the middle of a grudge match between the forces of Django’s New Earth Army and Hooper’s personal militia of super soldiers. In order to survive this wild adventure, Bob will have to outwit an enemy he never thought possible. The Men Who Stare at Goats was inspired by Jon Ronson’s non-fiction bestseller of the same name, an eye-opening and often hilarious exploration of the government’s attempts to harness paranormal abilities to combat its enemies.
