Download or read book A New History of Spanish Literature written by Richard E. Chandler and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1991-09-01 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1961, A New History of Spanish Literature has been a much-used resource for generations of students. The book has now been completely revised and updated to include extensive discussion of Spanish literature of the past thirty years. Richard E. Chandler and Kessel Schwartz, both longtime students of the literature, write authoritatively about every Spanish literary work of consequence. From the earliest extant writings though the literature of the 1980s, they draw on the latest scholarship. Unlike most literary histories, this one treats each genre fully in its own section, thus making it easy for the reader to follow the development of poetry, the drama, the novel, other prose fiction, and nonfiction prose. Students of the first edition have found this method particularly useful. However, this approach does not preclude study of the literature by period. A full index easily enables the reader to find all references to any individual author or book. Another noteworthy feature of the book, and one omitted from many books of this kind, is the comprehensive attention the authors accord nonfiction prose, including, for example, essays, philosophy, literary criticism, politics, and historiography. Encyclopedic in scope yet concise and eminently readable, the revised edition of A New History of Spanish Literature bids fair to be the standard reference well into the next century.

Download or read book The Latin Hit Maker written by Rudy Pérez and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2019-07-23 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, music legend Rudy Pérez shares his remarkable journey from a poor refugee kid in Miami to composing the greatest hit songs on the world stage. Named the most successful Latin songwriter in history, Rudy Pérez is the creator behind some of the bestselling records of Beyoncé, Julio Iglesias, Christina Aguilera, and IL Divo. In his one-of-a-kind memoir, Rudy tells about his childhood in Cuba and the heart-gripping visits to his father in prison during the height of the communist revolution. Tracing his family's perilous escape on one of the last Freedom Flights to America, Rudy opens up about the years of poverty and growing up in a crime-ridden neighborhood. These memories contrast with tender moments of dancing to the stereo with his siblings, nodding along to his mother's classical favorites, and swaying to blues melodies with his father. At a young age, Rudy tried his hand at recreating the music he loved, and his talent led him to an unprecedented career with over 300 hit songs. With years of hard work, ceaseless creativity, and a strong faith, Rudy was the first Latin music artist to win Billboard Producer of the Decade. Looking back over his five-time Grammy winning legacy, Rudy shares little-known stories of faith and behind-the-scenes details of working with stars like Fergie, Jaci Velasquez, Michael Bolton, Simon Cowell, and Sam Moore. A must-read for every music lover, The Latin Hit Maker is a genuine rags-to-riches story filled with inspiration, fascinating details, and a powerful reminder of God's grace and transforming creativity.

Download or read book No Hay Despedidas written by Gloria M. Rodriguez and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-02-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Como poeta Gloria M. Rodríguez empezó escribiendo poemas acerca del amor que sus padres se tenían uno al otro y a su familia. Estos poemas se convirtieron en historias cortas de los desafíos que pasaron durante la guerra y el porque ellos finalmente decidieron formar su hogar en los Estados Unidos después de la guerra civil de España. Después de que muchos amigos le sugirieron y finalmente por una súplica de una sobrina. Gloria recogió todas las memorias y notas adquiridas durante los años. Puso en orden exacto cronológico para contar una historia de verdad en que el amor de la familia puede vencer todos los desafíos de la vida. Notas y comentarios vinieron desde conversaciones con sus padres de sus años juntos y información obtenido de varios miembros de la familia. Con mapas enseñando los caminos tomados por sus padres, luego investigando y tomándolos ella sola para ver como debía haber sido para salir de la lucha en España en1938, se ayudó para contar una historia de verdad con mínimo de fantasía. Gloria hace lo posible para pintar una imagen de la cultura de dos distintos continentes durante los años 1913 hasta 1940 y más allá hasta sus fallecimientos. La historia enseña costumbres del tiempo y la tontería de la guerra traído por frustración, cosas políticas y la economía durante esta época. Encima de todo, enseña el amor verdadero que puede conquistar todos los desafíos de la vida. La historia ha enseñado lo terrible y negativo que paso en esta época. Pero, esta historia de verdad, habla del amor que dos personas tenían durante esta época hasta sus fallecimientos.

Download or read book UCRANIA EN SU HISTORIA Y SUS HISTORIAS written by ASOCIACIÓN EUROPEA DE INICIATIVAS PARA UCRANIA and published by GLOBAL SQUARE EDITORIAL S.L.. This book was released on 2023-10-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hasta hace muy poco, en nuestro debate era una rara avis poder escuchar a ucranianos hablar en primera persona de sus experiencias y compartir sus perspectivas, sus anhelos, como el sujeto histórico que conforman. Este libro, anterior a la invasión rusa a gran escala de 2022, surgió en gran medida en respuesta a ello. Era necesario entonces y sigue siéndolo ahora: el futuro de Ucrania como país europeo libre e independiente, un país normal, con una vida digna, sigue desgraciadamente en cuestión. Que se haya traducido al español un libro así, es muy buena noticia: en nuestra lengua y contexto cultural, es aún enorme el vacío de conocimiento sobre Ucrania - y más aún contada por intelectuales ucranianos.Así que por favor lean a estos autores y autoras ucranianas con calma, sin prejuicios ni ideas preconcebidas: escúchenles, tienen mucho que decir, que contar. Quién sabe, quizás se animen después a coger un avión y un tren - esos magníficos trenes ucranianos que me inspiraron a escribir allí - para conocer de primera mano las historias o, mejor aún, experiencias históricas vivas y personajes vivos que fluyen a través de estas páginas.

Download or read book Relatos Infieles written by Iliana Espinosa and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relatos infieles es una recopilación de historias cortas oídas, vistas, comentadas o sufridas, sobre las circunstancias que rodean a la infidelidad. En las relaciones amorosas no hay buenos y malos, no hay reglas y no hay límites. Hay hechos, pensamientos y emociones. Tal vez haya quien se crea ganador y quien piense que lo ha perdido todo. No queda sino enfrentar al toro por los cuernos, con la tristeza, con la risa, con la estrategia que nos lleve a aceptar la naturaleza humana tal como es: defectuosa. La infidelidad tiene tantos matices como involucrados en el drama más antiguo del mundo. Después de todo, una infidelidad no es para morirse... o quien sabe.
