We live, live!

Baionak ez daki
Bea Salaberri
Susa, 2015

Bea Salaberri in his prime opera does what the writers recommend, that is, to start writing literature you have to look at the environment with eyes wide open and those of interest to us in our notebook. In addition, they say that to be a writer you have to read a lot. To know the different ways of having models and writing from the knowledge of what others have done.

To do this, he has brought to his pages everything that has happened at home, at home, at work and on the street, and he has shared with the reader the ideas he has found in his daily life. In this way, it invites us to desautomate and to live consciously.

30 stories that convey to us what goes unnoticed in our lives or the succession of some cultures and traditions. On the one hand, we have brushes and impressions, and on the other hand, the presence of genres and hegemonic classes.

Salaberri puts in front of our eyes the usual moments, places and objects, reflecting on their influence or presence. For example, Ortzia talks about the wet land that the summer storms bring, Biga puts us at five in Marengoran between some streets of Baiona, alluding to the possibilities that they offer, or makes us look at the soundtrack of the house of the Lavors-larsen.

In addition, it attends to the relationships, behaviors and rituals of our culture, showing class conflicts or the consequences of poverty and making a social critique to the narration of Heroes or to the manifesto of the weight of the family structure in Bayonne 17, as well as how menstruation lives in Gorriak.

It also brings experiences and emotions through memory, such as swings or such special excursions in children and the sensations that produce us in Gorgoña and in the Bus, or the happiness and joy of the Soroa and the Ator button.

As has been said, he shares with readers what they have received from their environment, but also mentions models such as Itxaro Borda. In the text entitled Gasna, besides referring to the name of this writer and his book %100 basque, you can also find influences of the style of Borda in the title of the first narrative. With the title "Negarra begian" refers to a well-known song by the Basque songwriter, a resource that Borda uses in all her detective novels.

In the end, this book, why not? as it says in the narrative, “the important thing is to feel like living”, that is, to be masters of what has been experienced.

Reflecting on the present of yesterday’s philosophers

Epistemology, or theory of knowledge, is one of the main areas of philosophy, and throughout history there have been important debates about the limits and bases of our knowledge. Within this we find two powerful corridors that propose different ways of accessing knowledge: The... [+]


Institutional responsibility for the protection of children

We learned this week that the Court of Getxo has closed the case of 4-year-old children from the Europa School. This leads us to ask: are the judicial, police, etc. authorities prepared to respond to the children’s requests? Are our children really protected when they are... [+]

Deprotection of overprotection

We have renewed the dialogue in the secretariat of the faculty, for the most auspicious: they are far away, for their enrollment, the times when only the students came. The trend has changed for a long time, and parents – most notably mothers – are taking an increasingly... [+]

The silogism of the carpentry

The argument of a syllogism has three propositions, the last of which is necessarily deduced from the other two. It is with this deductive logic that I can analyze, for me, the long and traumatic socioecological conflict in Carpinteria that is taking place in Navarre.

The legacy of the depressed Despremu

I have recently worked in class on Etxahun Barkox’s beautiful and touching cobla. The bad guy! The afflictions of the house began because of the creation of the “praube with beauty”, but in seventeen years she had entered the sea of misfortune, having to abandon the girl... [+]

From the Caldereros: A blackface in San Sebastian?

I don't want my daughter disguising herself as a Gypsy in the caldereros. I don’t want Gypsy children at my daughter’s school to dress up as Gypsies in caldereros. Because being a gypsy is not a disguise. Because being a gypsy is not a party that takes place once a year, with... [+]

Long way in small steps!

The road goes by steps, and I learned a little while ago that it seems to have already begun. But people also want to learn to fill that sentence with content. Alone we could achieve little, maybe even resignation as soon as we started. Gathering huge crowds can also complicate... [+]

They don’t know why

The Department of Education doesn't understand why public employees have gone on strike. He's got to ask the LAB Syndicate. This union signed an agreement with the department in April 2023. Two years later they have also called for a strike because, unlike the previous ones, the... [+]
