Under the roof of a modest hostel in a poor neighborhood in the Chilean capital, a strange group of guests meets, including workers, trade unionists, students, traffic police, and performance artists. Let them all witness the last days of the rule of the Popular Union headed by Salvador Allende, before the bloody coup led by General Pinochet took place and changed the history of Chile forever. Thus, this hostel turns into something similar to an operations room through which some Chilean leftists try to protect the socialist government and stand up to fascism. And among all of them, Arturo, the braggart and virginal football player, coming from the south to the capital, and burdened with dreams of fame and unsatisfied desires, tries to discover himself and determine his position on everything that is happening around him.
“I Dreamed That the Snow Was Burning” is the first novel by Chilean writer Antonio Scarmeta, and one of his most important works. In it, the features of a special, diverse style are established in terms of rhythms and narrative techniques, in which imagination blends with reality, and in which sarcastic humor alleviates the harshness of dramatic events. The book is a living document of the dialogues, conflicts, and popular mood that prevailed in Chile at the most pivotal moments in its history.
An introductory overview of the book:
First of all, when I thought about naming this book, it did not take long effort, as the name came to my mind at first glance, “Intellectual Development in Technical Terms,” but I recently changed the title to a meaning closer to my heart, and because the goal of the content of this book is to introduce the concept of self-development. In simplified ways and by resorting to the mechanics of technical terminology, here the question may arise: “What is the relationship between self-development and technical terminology?”
God Almighty helped me to prepare this book, to write in it about the secrets of the mind and the mechanics of its work according to scientific studies carried out by specialists in this field, and then explain some of the concepts related to self-development and link them with simple technical terms to take the reader with me to the stairs that raise the level of awareness and awareness. I leave him the choice to choose what suits him to do.
I seek to address that category of people who find it difficult to reach the highest levels of awareness in the field of self-development, and there is nothing wrong with that, as I was not aware of these concepts until recently, after my mind linked the mechanisms together, and that was the incentive that moved my brainchild to start. Once again, I am writing to put before you a summary of what I have concluded based on scientific sources from my specialists in the field of psychology and my long experience in the field of information technology science. So I resorted to writing this topic to simplify the concepts for the reader and help him make the connection between the mechanics of the mind and technology.
Although there are many terms in information technology, for the purpose of this book I chose a simple set of technical processes to make it easier for the reader to understand these terms and link them to logic and self-development.
Its intellectual value. Russell was committed throughout his life to working to change the world in which he lived, and to addressing the public in a clear, rational manner. This is one of the intellectual virtues of philosophy: explaining, clarifying, simplifying, and opening the way for everyone to participate in the process of changing the world. The articles revolve around three axes: First, freedom: Throughout his life, Russell defended freedom of expression in the face of extreme religious and nationalist beliefs. His battle was to defend freedom of expression regardless of the oppressive force. This basic principle was one of the focuses of his thinking about politics and ethics. Secondly, religion: Russell criticized the Bolsheviks’ suppression of believers, and he also criticized the religious people’s suppression of atheists. His position on religion stems from a principled commitment to freedom of expression and faith. Third, rationalism and philosophy: Russell defended rationalism throughout his life, and refused to believe in any issue or opinion that was not supported by evidence in a clear, rational manner. On the other hand, mainly following Hume, Russell holds that reason has limits, and that the rationalist position also requires that we accept that our understanding of the world is limited by the limits of reason
