Download or read book Canciones tradicionales espa olas written by and published by Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca. This book was released on 2011 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canciones tradicionales son las que llegan a identificarse de tal manera con la idiosincrasia de un país o de un ámbito regional que se transmiten oralmente de generación en generación y se hacen del pueblo o, mejor, el pueblo las hace suyas. Evidentemente tienen un autor primigenio y una fecha de composición, pero este trasvase generacional contribuye a que ambos se diluyan en el tiempo. Así pues, las canciones tradicionales son auténticas joyas históricas que trascienden la individualidad de su autor y su tiempo originario para identificarse con lo más profundo del conocimiento popular.

Download or read book German Children s and Youth Literature in Exile 1933 1950 written by Zlata Fuss Phillips and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-11-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with authors in exile - those writers who were forced to leave their home country after the National Socialists seized power in 1933. Although many of the authors have continued to receive recognition in their particular fields, whether film or adult literature, one group of artists has been overlooked - the authors and illustrators of children's literature. Now for the first time German Children's and Youth Literature in Exile, 1933-1050, has recorded and made accessible a wealth of information on these German-speaking authors and illustrators who emigrated to many different countries and regions of the world. German Children's and Youth Literature in Exile, 1933-1950, contains biographies of 101 authors and illustrators of children and youth literature as well as bibliographies of the books written and illustrated by them that were published in exile between 1933 and 1950. Included are authors who were born before 1918 in Germany or in areas of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire and who lived or worked in Germany or Austria until 1933. Many of them were forced to emigrate because their lives were endangered. Some of them left before the repressive measures of the National Socialists were implemented, in order to maintain their intellectual and artistic freedom. The exile countries they chose were the United States, Great Britain, Switzerland, the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, France, Holland, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Finland, Poland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Mexico, Bolivia, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Australia, Canada, China and Palestine/Israel. Among the authors listed in this volume are Kurt Held (Die rote Zora und ihre Bande 1941), Irmgard Keun (Nac.

Download or read book Voces de Juncos En El Pantano written by Maricela Col Mel Ndez and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voces de Juncos en el pantano es la historia contada por las mujeres de una familia, historias que no se dicen, que se han guardado en secreto como un intento de ayudar al tiempo y al olvido. Pero la memoria obliga a la confesión, la confesión obliga a contar historias y a cambiarle los nombres a nuestra verdad. La fi cción es otro matiz de la realidad. Esta novela captura mis sentidos, sorprende su prosa, el recorrido de los decorados de una vida de dolor y sufrimiento profundo, de grandes abandonos, incluso de tocar las fronteras delicadas de la locura. Camila, Lotis, Iris, son el ramillete de mujeres ligadas por la sangre de la familia Juncos, que aprenden a penetrar todos los obstáculos posibles para recrearnos esta historia de libertad y superación, de supervivencia. No es sólo enfrentar los muros, es penetrarlos, o en el mejor de los casos, volar sobre ellos. Tal aprendizaje lo da una vida llena de sueños, visiones que perseguir. Lotis amó y fue amada, y la vida en su ruta escabrosa, dictó que hay amores que deben esperar llegar al cielo. Una historia que sale de los rincones más pobres de la isla de Puerto Rico, viaja a la gran ciudad de Nueva York, donde en ambas el abuso, la traición, la vida subterránea sumergen al niño en inmensas violencias. Una historia que sólo puede entenderse con el toque de magia de los milagros. Voces de Juncos en el pantano debe ser leída por todo aquel que desee desenmascarar la realidad de la pobreza, niños y mujeres en su diaria lucha por ser libres para educarse, crecer, amar, y reir. Una historia demasiado humana.

Download or read book Caribbean Children s Literature Volume 1 written by Betsy Nies and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2023-05-18 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributions by María V. Acevedo-Aquino, Consuella Bennett, Florencia V. Cornet, Stacy Ann Creech, Zeila Frade, Melissa García Vega, Ann González, Louise Hardwick, Barbara Lalla, Megan Jeanette Myers, Betsy Nies, Karen Sanderson-Cole, Karen Sands-O’Connor, Geraldine Elizabeth Skeete, and Aisha T. Spencer The world of Caribbean children’s literature finds its roots in folktales and storytelling. As countries distanced themselves from former colonial powers post-1950s, the field has taken a new turn that emerges not just from writers within the region but also from those of its diaspora. Rich in language diversity and history, contemporary Caribbean children’s literature offers a window into the ongoing representations of not only local realities but also the fantasies that structure the genre itself. Young adult literature entered the region in the 1970s, offering much-needed representations of teenage voices and concerns. With the growth of local competitions and publishing awards, the genre has gained momentum, providing a new field of scholarly analyses. Similarly, the field of picture books has also deepened. Caribbean Children's Literature, Volume 1: History, Pedagogy, and Publishing includes general coverage of children’s literary history in the regions where the four major colonial powers have left their imprint; addresses intersections between pedagogy and children’s literature in the Anglophone Caribbean; explores the challenges of producing and publishing picture books; and engages with local authors familiar with the terrain. Local writers come together to discuss writerly concerns and publishing challenges. In new interviews conducted for this volume, international authors Edwidge Danticat, Junot Díaz, and Olive Senior discuss their transition from writing for adults to creating picture books for children.
Download or read book Spanish Music in the Twentieth Century written by Tomás Marco and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the exhilarating impact of Isaac Albeniz at the beginning of the century to today's complex and adventurous avant-garde, this complete interpretive history introduces twentieth-century Spanish music to English-speaking readers. With graceful authority, Tomas Marco, award-winning composer, critic, and bright light of Spanish music since the 1960s, covers the entire spectrum of composers and their works: trends and movements, critical and popular reception, national institutions, influences from Europe and beyond, and the effect of such historic events as the Spanish Civil War and the death of Franco. Marco's penetrating aesthetic critiques are threaded throughout each phase of this rich account. Marco provides detailed coverage of the key figures, induding a chapter devoted entirely to Manuel de Falla--Spain's most celebrated twentieth-century composer--and a panoramic survey of recent arrivals on the contemporary music scene. Exploring the rise and fall of the zarzuela, the author highlights innovative works in this authentic Spanish genre. He analyzes the attempts to find an audience for Spanish opera; demonstrates the flowering of symphonic and chamber music at the beginning of this century; traces currents such as romanticism, impressionism, and neoclassicism; and tracks the influence of Spain's distinctive regional folk traditions. Covering musical innovation after Spain's emergence from its period of isolation, Marco notes the speed with which many composers absorbed the work of Stravinsky and Bartok, the twelve-tone system, aleatory forms, electronic techniques, and other European developments. English-speaking scholars, musicians, critics and general readers have for decades been without full information on the rich and varied work coming out of Spain in this century. This lively history fills a long-felt need and fills it superbly, with the knowledge and insights of a major figure in the musical world.
