Neuware - 'The Boy Who Conquered a Star' is a coming-of-age story that explores the debate between education as a transcendent, enduring experience and merely the training for a life of material acquisition. Mr. Bedoya's epic poem delivers a message of hope, redemption, and the necessity for a more introspective worldview, particularly regarding our educational foundations.The protagonist, Miguel Alejandro, leads a meandering childhood, living for shallow pleasures and rebellious hijinks. He disappoints his parents and community, but it does not dawn on him that delinquency serves no human purpose until a violent awakening nearly costs him his life and incapacitates him for years.During his lengthy rehabilitation, Miguel undergoes a protracted epiphany. His physical discomfort forces him into activities that lead to spiritual healing. Ironically, this purging of his indolence is delivered by what he has long despised and avoided: education. In his solitude, books, contemplation, and creative pursuits give meaning to his existence. His academic accomplishments, achieved through self-learning, give him a sense of purpose and appreciation for life. As he reflects on his youth, it becomes clear that current educational structures can negatively impact the well-being of young people.Miguel Alejandro becomes a student of his own life, a mentor for others, and an inspiring figure to all who question the role of teaching in society. He advocates for youth to own their worldview through self-driven study, supported by passionate teachers and parents. The narrative demonstrates his belief that life is calmer when driven by self-knowledge rather than wealth generation, instilling calmness in those around him.Jaime Bedoya knows this subject well, having lived it as both a teacher and a lifelong student. He addresses the importance of a human balance between self-discovery and material possessions. Miguel, like Hesse's protagonist Siddhartha, searches for spiritual enlightenment and personal meaning. Although Miguel's physical disability hampers his quest, the goals and successes of each character lead to an inspiring conclusion. Those who champion pure capitalism should take Mr. Bedoya's message to heart.

Ajouter au panierTaschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Sebastian, Tony (illustrateur). Neuware - Little Giants of Paradise is a short novel showcasing Jaime Bedoya Martínez's talent for creating fantastical storylines premised on the mundane and the visceral; that is, the natural world of insects and the surprisingly sophisticated social rituals and hierarchies which dominate their existence. His experience and insight as a laborer, manager, and educator in the fields of Colombia-a region blessed with some of the most diverse ecological areas in the world-is in full display as he creates modern mythological heroes and legends, not mythologies based on cultural or religious traditions.The engineering feats of bees, wasps, worms, fish, birds, et al. are framed as equivalent in quality to those in the hominid world. The writer also argues that these mechanical techniques have not been misappropriated towards providing the perverse greed of human society. Rather, our lower cousins have the explicit resolve to satisfy deeply coded responsibilities of survival and reproduction, not for the individual but for the ostensibly immortal community. Whatever we have thought of the brutish existence of these creatures (if we had considered it at all), the narrative clarifies the notion that death is merely the yang of life.The methodical ecstasy of this writer's voice opens our eyes to the minuscule and ubiquitous. What we often squash or poison in disgust serves as a metaphor for the contempt we have for our organic reality-a reality that, through programmatic ritualism, beckons with its comfort of collectivism and belonging but not gratuitously or cheaply.His remarkable telling of the minutiae details of the life and death of our long-separated ancestors reminds us that our human exceptionalism, based on our mechanical and artistic capacities, were long-believed unique to our legacy. But a careful look (and the writing of Bedoya) informs us that for millennia before us, this analogous activity has been part of the life and death of animal life. If we arrogantly consider these creatures primeval because of their lack of rational thought, ultimately, it becomes clear that this lack of rationale does not diminish their existence but rather prescribes a clearer path to meaning as their focused attention and loyalty to programmed ritual is more functional than the ennui of our scattered life. This insight into the high value of mortality mocks the human construct of death as pejorative or the virtue of any type of life-no matter its toxic nature. To the insect, death is a destiny, a resurrection of matter, a path to greater communal accomplishment.But then, as Bedoya has cleared the slate of human distraction and alienation with raw details of nature, a sweet romantic storyline of innocent love evolves between human characters, for surely, we all need witness and recognition of this epiphany. These relationships are nurtured and driven by the curiosity of the young mentored by the wise. Their search for meaning finds it, although hesitantly, in the survival mode of the insects.It is revealing that much of the empirical knowledge is acquired and revealed by those who both exploit and admire it. Bedoya seems to point to the necessity of mortal collaboration, whether as Sowers, harvesters, or partners of these remarkable creatures.Unlike lessons taught by more orthodox intellectual sources, these highly malleable youth find that transformation is not a physical or reincarnation process but rather the transformation of attitude and spirit.Bedoya's writing is both poetic and prosaic. On both levels, his reverence for the physical beauty of nature comes across in gorgeous descriptions of land he knows well, while the storyline is often brutal. His language is singsong and stoic, which serves the subject of this novel well.
