Download or read book The Spanish Language of New Mexico and Southern Colorado written by Garland D. Bills and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2008-12-16 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spanish language and Hispanic culture have left indelible impressions on the landscape of the southwestern United States. The role of cultural and geographical influence has had dramatic effects on the sustainability of the Spanish language and also its development and change. In a linguistic exploration that delves into a language as it is spoken by the Hispanic population of New Mexico and southern Colorado, historical substantiation shows the condition of New Mexican Spanish and what the future holds for its speakers. With two major dialect regions, one in the north and one in the south, detailed maps illustrate the geography of linguistic variation for the Spanish spoken in the region, whose generations of speakers were not only influenced by other languages, but also developed their own variations of words and structure out of need or innovation. This diverse language has evolved since its origin in Spain with influences that include Native American languages, exposure to English, and Mexican immigration in the twentieth century. Snippets of New Mexican folklore and folk etymology give voice to that evolution. Though this work doesn't attempt to save the New Mexican Spanish language, Bills and Vigil detail the effects of inevitable encroachment that intensified during the twentieth century and seriously threaten the continued viability of this unique dialect.
Download or read book El jefe psic pata written by Hugo Marietán and published by Libros del Zorzal. This book was released on 2010 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El psicópata con poder está en su salsa. Su natural narcisismo le devuelve una y otra vez una imagen embellecida que justifica, en todo, su accionar; no hay resquicio, en su mente, para el error propio. Sin error no hay arrepentimiento y sin arrepentimiento no hay corrección del rumbo, sino persistencia. Su obrar psicopático se ajusta a sus códigos propios y lo hace impermeable e intolerante a las críticas. El que lo critica no es un adversario, sino un enemigo. El líder no psicópata adversario del psicópata, en cambio, es una persona que dirige personas y basa su poder en el consenso, en la discusión. Al no saber que se opone a un psicópata trata de elaborar sus estrategias basadas en un error: la empatía, “si yo estuviese en su lugar…”. El psicópata no piensa como él, no es empático. Es un depredador voraz e impiadoso. Espero contar con un lector que se atreva a lo nuevo, que se despoje de prejuicios e ideologías, que no confunda distinguir con discriminar, y que me acompañe en este apasionante laberinto de desmesuras que conforman la mente del psicópata (Hugo Marietan).

Book excerpt: Michelle LaVaughn Robinson es madre de dos hijas, abogada y, también, el personaje político más popular de los Estados Unidos, por delante incluso de su marido, el actual presidente norteamericano, Barack Obama. Michelle Obama es, además de espontánea, inteligente y familiar, mejor comunicadora que su marido y uno de sus pilares más importantes de cara a la reelección, y ha sabido ganarse el cariño y respeto de sus compatriotas desde su papel de primera dama.

Fruto de esa admiración nació un trabajo de investigación sobre su persona, llena de carisma y poder de atracción. Este retrato de Michelle está elaborado a partir de sus propias palabras en discursos, mítines y entrevistas, y muestra a una mujer rebelde que se enfrenta a estereotipos, convencionalismos y a todo aquello con lo que no está de acuerdo.

Download or read book Salsa Consciente written by Andrés Espinoza Agurto and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 2021-12-01 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the significations and developments of the Salsa consciente movement, a Latino musico-poetic and political discourse that exploded in the 1970s but then dwindled in momentum into the early 1990s. This movement is largely linked to the development of Nuyolatino popular music brought about in part by the mass Latino migration to New York City beginning in the 1950s and the subsequent social movements that were tied to the shifting political landscapes. Defined by its lyrical content alongside specific sonic markers and political and social issues facing U.S. Latinos and Latin Americans, Salsa consciente evokes the overarching cultural-nationalist idea of Latinidad (Latin-ness). Through the analysis of over 120 different Salsa songs from lyrical and musical perspectives that span a period of over sixty years, the author makes the argument that the urban Latino identity expressed in Salsa consciente was constructed largely from diasporic, deterritorialized, and at times imagined cultural memory, and furthermore proposes that the Latino/Latin American identity is in part based on African and Indigenous experience, especially as it relates to Spanish colonialism. A unique study on the intersection of Salsa and Latino and Latin American identity, this volume will be especially interesting to scholars of ethnic studies and musicology alike.
Download or read book Man on a Camel written by Duncan Cullman and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-03-07 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Duncan Cullman was abandoned on the steps of a church as an infant. No one knew exactly where he had come from, but a large American car had been seen speeding away. “My son, you came directly from God — El Dios,” his mother said, for she was Spanish, from some island in the Caribbean. She had gone to Cartagena, in Colombia, to marry Cullman’s father, but then they had returned to south Bogota. His mother also suggested that maybe he was “one of those gringos,” because his hair was blond and his eyes are blue. While he laughed at the idea, he grew up dreaming that he was destined to be like a king or one of those rich gringos and live in a big mansion with a large garden, many fine trees, and servants that he would treat well. In this compilation of poems and short stories, Cullman looks back at how he did become a king of sorts, achieving renowned status as a ski racer, spending time with John Denver in Aspen, Colorado, shortly before the singer’s death, and enjoying life to the fullest.
