Download or read book Words of the True Peoples Prose written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As part of the larger, ongoing movement throughout Latin America to reclaim non-Hispanic cultural heritages and identities, indigenous writers in Mexico are reappropriating the written word in their ancestral tongues and in Spanish. As a result, the long-marginalized, innermost feelings, needs, and worldviews of Mexico's ten to twenty million indigenous peoples are now being widely revealed to the Western societies with which these peoples coexist. To contribute to this process and serve as a bridge of intercultural communication and understanding, this groundbreaking, three-volume anthology gathers works by the leading generation of writers in thirteen Mexican indigenous languages: Nahuatl, Maya, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Tojolabal, Tabasco Chontal, Purepecha, Sierra Zapoteco, Isthmus Zapoteco, Mazateco, Ñahñu, Totonaco, and Huichol."--Book jacket.

Download or read book Seven Dreams written by Feliciano Sánchez Chan and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Translated from the Mayan by Jonathan Harrington. Bilingual Edition. This translation brings Chan's fine poetry to an English-speaking audience for the first time. Very little contemporary Mayan poetry has been translated into English. There have been a few anthologies, but I know of no individual book of poetry written in the Mayan language by a single author that has appeared in English. A look at the poems of Feliciano Sánchez Chan should demonstrate that this is not poetry notable solely because it was written in Mayan. This is poetry that merits a much wider audience because of the quality of the work itself. His poetry, written in the ancient language of Mayan, is as contemporary and modern as any poet writing today. He writes of the Maya as I know them—the living, breathing world of my neighbors and friends with their belief systems as well as their hopes and heartbreaks, aspirations and disappointments and the dream they share with most of the world—that their children's lives will be better than their own.
Download or read book Passive Sentences in English and Portuguese written by Milton Mariano Azevedo and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 1980 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyzes passive sentences in English and Portuguese which result from a post-semantic transformation applied when a nound, which does not play the semantic role of actor, is chosen as syntactic subject. Choice between a passive and its non-passive or active counterpart reflects differences in the distribution of information in the sentence as regards the relative importance of the latter's constituents for communication. Such distribution is analyzed in terms of Praque school theory, especially that involving the notions of communicative dynamism and the distribution of theme and rheme. The book concludes with a contrastive analysis of English and Portuguese passive sentence patterns which serves as the basis for observations on the teaching of Portuguese passives to native speakers of English.

Download or read book Why Does Tragedy Give Pleasure written by A. D. Nuttall and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2001-03-29 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does tragedy give pleasure? Why do people who are neither wicked nor depraved enjoy watching plays about suffering or death? Is it because we see horrific matter controlled by majestic art? Or because tragedy actually reaches out to the dark side of human nature? A. D. Nuttall's wide-ranging, lively and engaging book offers a new answer to this perennial question. The 'classical' answer to the question is rooted in Aristotle and rests on the unreality of the tragic presentation: no one really dies; we are free to enjoy watching potentially horrible events controlled and disposed in majestic sequence by art. In the nineteenth century, Nietzsche dared to suggest that Greek tragedy is involved with darkness and unreason and Freud asserted that we are all, at the unconscious level, quite wicked enough to rejoice in death. But the problem persists: how can the conscious mind assent to such enjoyment? Strenuous bodily exercise is pleasurable. Could we, when we respond to a tragedy, be exercising our emotions, preparing for real grief and fear? King Lear actually destroys an expected majestic sequence. Might the pleasure of tragedy have more to do with possible truth than with 'splendid evasion'?
