Download or read book A New Reference Grammar of Modern Spanish written by John Butt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (abridged and revised) This reference grammar offers intermediate and advanced students a reason ably comprehensive guide to the morphology and syntax of educated speech and plain prose in Spain and Latin America at the end of the twentieth century. Spanish is the main, usually the sole official language of twenty-one countries,} and it is set fair to overtake English by the year 2000 in numbers 2 of native speakers. This vast geographical and political diversity ensures that Spanish is a good deal less unified than French, German or even English, the latter more or less internationally standardized according to either American or British norms. Until the 1960s, the criteria of internationally correct Spanish were dictated by the Real Academia Espanola, but the prestige of this institution has now sunk so low that its most solemn decrees are hardly taken seriously - witness the fate of the spelling reforms listed in the Nuevas normas de prosodia y ortograjia, which were supposed to come into force in all Spanish-speaking countries in 1959 and, nearly forty years later, are still selectively ignored by publishers and literate persons everywhere. The fact is that in Spanish 'correctness' is nowadays decided, as it is in all living languages, by the consensus of native speakers; but consensus about linguistic usage is obviously difficult to achieve between more than twenty independent, widely scattered and sometimes mutually hostile countries. Peninsular Spanish is itself in flux.
Download or read book El barco fantasma y otros relatos written by Richard Barham Middleton and published by Editorial Verbum. This book was released on 2020-06-08 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta colección de relatos de Richard Barham Middleton nos presenta una buena muestra del talento literario de un autor poco conocido en lengua española. El cuento que da título a la colección relata la historia acontecida en un pequeño pueblo costero llamado Fairfield, donde sus habitantes están acostumbrados al tránsito de fantasmas de familiares de varias generaciones que conviven con ellos en sus casas. Después de una gran tormenta, un barco fantasma y su tripulación queda encallado en un huerto de nabos. El propietario solo está preocupado por la reprimenda que recibirá de su mujer por haber perdido la cosecha, lo que desencadena una trama cómica y llena de absurdos. El relato tiene un ambiente mágico y de una cierta melancolía, pero de un excelente humor que nos anima a leer más relatos del autor.

Book excerpt: "Substantially the book that devotees of the director have been waiting for: a full-length critical work about Ozu's life, career and working methods, buttressed with reproductions of pages from his notebooks and shooting scripts, numerous quotes from co-workers and Japanese critics, a great many stills and an unusually detailed filmography."—Sight and Sound Yasujiro Ozu, the man whom his kinsmen consider the most Japanese for all film directors, had but one major subject, the Japanese family, and but one major theme, its dissolution. The Japanese family in dissolution figures in every one of his fifty-three films. In his later pictures, the whole world exists in one family, the characters are family members rather than members of a society, and the ends of the earth seem no more distant than the outside of the house.

Download or read book The Basque Dialect of Lekeitio written by José Ignacio Hualde and published by Universidad del Pais Vasco. This book was released on 1994 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a study of the Basque variety spoken in Lekeitio (Vizcaya). As such we have intended to make a direct contribution to Basque dialectology, aiming at setting certain standards for research in this area. In addition, we believe that some of the materials assembled in this work will be of interest to a larger audience beyond Basque specialists. It is for this reason that we decided to write the present book in English. In our opinion, certain linguistic aspects are treated in more detail here than in any previous work on any other Basque variety. A case in point would be accentuation, both at the lexical level and in its relation to the syntactic process of focalization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ✅ A great short story for young people and adults of the famous Novel Prize (1907) Rudyard Kipling, author of great works of world literature; a work revised and translated to offer you the BEST TITLES IN UNIVERSAL LITERATURE → Acquire this book and enjoy the pleasure of reading ... Synopsis of the book: Charlie Mears is a twenty-year-old bank employee with literary aspirations whose motivation at that moment is to write what he considers to be "The most beautiful story in the world." In some billiard rooms he coincides with a writer, to whom he shows the bases of his story, which he will title "The story of a ship." He will be absorbed by the overwhelming imagination with which the boy describes the ship as a Greek galot, providing all kinds of details very difficult to know by a simple boy who was a bank employee and who had hardly read anything until now. How is it possible that such a young boy, who has barely read, can narrate historical adventures with such ease and detail? Later appointments between the two take place, in which Charlie continues to describe with great clarity of detail, situations on the boat, the rowers, the arrangement of the oars ... etc. After successive sessions, the writer reaches the terrifying conclusion that the boy is having a kind of transmigrations of his soul called metempsychosis, which are extreme dualisms, the soul changes body after death. It thus concludes that Charlie had definitely been in other times, a kind of Greek galley (man who paddled in a forced way on galleys). It is predictable the ecstasy that the writer suffers before that great opportunity that he has in front of him to be able to write stories in real time, of things that happened thousands of years ago ... Biography: Joseph Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was a British writer and poet, author of great stories, children's stories, novels and poetry, such as The Jungle The Book (1894), the spy novel Kim (1901), the short story "The Man Who Would Be King" ("The Man Who Could Be King", 1888), many of which were made into a movie. He rejected several awards at the time but in 1907 he accepted and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature, which made him the first British writer to receive this award, and the youngest Nobel Prize winner for Literature to date.
Download or read book The Diario of Christopher Columbus s First Voyage to America 1492 1493 written by and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This definitive edition of Columbus's account of the voyage presents the most accurate printed version of his journal available to date. Unfortunately both Columbus's original manuscript, presented to Ferdinand and Isabella along with other evidence of his discoveries, and a single complete copy have been lost for centuries. The primary surviving record of the voyage-part quotation, part summary of the complete copy-is a transcription made by Bartolome de las Casas in the 1530s. This new edition of the Las Casas manuscript presents its entire contents-including notes, insertions, and canceled text-more accurately, completely, and graphically than any other Spanish text published so far. In addition, the new translation, which strives for readability and accuracy, appears on pages facing the Spanish, encouraging on-the- spot comparisons of the translation with the original. Study of the work is further facilitated by extensive notes, documenting differences between the editors' transcription and translation and those of other transcribers and translators and summarizing current research and debates on unanswered current research and debates on unanswered questions concerning the voyage. In addition to being the only edition in which Spanish and English are presented side by side, this edition includes the only concordance ever prepared for the Diario. Awaited by scholars, this new edition will help reduce the guesswork that has long plagued the study of Columbus's voyage. It may shed light on a number of issues related to Columbus's navigational methods and the identity of his landing places, issues whose resolution depend, at least in part, on an accurate transcription of the Diario. Containing day-by-day accounts of the voyage and the first sighting of land, of the first encounters with the native populations and the first appraisals of his islands explored, and of a suspenseful return voyage to Spain, the Diario provides a fascinating and useful account to historians, geographers, anthropologists, sailors, students, and anyone else interested in the discovery-or in a very good sea story. Oliver Dunn received the PH.D. degree from Cornell University. He is Professor Emeritus in Purdue University and a longtime student of Spanish and early history of Spanish America. James E. Kelley, Jr., received the M.A. degree from American University. A mathematician and computer and management consultant by vocation, for the past twenty years he has studied the history of European cartography and navigation in late-medieval times. Both are members of the Society for the History of Discoveries and have written extensively on the history of navigation and on Columbus's first voyage, Although they remain unconvinced of its conclusions, both were consultants to the National geographic Society's 1986 effort to establish Samana Cay as the site of Columbus's first landing.
