Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El español es la cuarta lengua más hablada en el mundo y el idioma de una cada vez mayor importancia en los Estados Unidos de América. En lo que esperábamos resultara la introducción a la historia de la lengua española, David Pharies, clara y conscientemente, trazó la evolución del español desde sus raíces indo-europeas hasta su estado actual. Un reconocido experto internacional en la historia y el desarrollo de esta lengua, Pharies presenta sobre este tema un sentido preciso de lo que los estudiantes de español necesitan saber. Después de los capítulos introductorios de lo que significa el estudio de la historia de una lengua, el concepto del cambio lingüístico y de la naturaleza de las familias lingüísticas, Pharies hace un seguimiento al desarrollo del español desde sus raíces latinas, todo ello con una mínima cantidad de lenguaje técnico posible. En las secciones centrales del libro, los lectores son llevados por una presentación sucinta, comprometedora y admirable, de la genealogía y desarrollo de la lengua incluyendo explicaciones de las estructuras y peculiaridades del latín, los eventos históricos y culturales que influenciaron profundamente la forma del lenguaje, la naturaleza del español medieval, los mitos lingüísticos formando parte del español y el desarrollo de la lengua más allá de la península ibérica, en particular, en el continente americano. Centrándose en las más importantes facetas de la evolución de la lengua, esta obra concisa hace que la historia del español sea accesible a todos, con una comprensión del mismo y una disposición para entender los conceptos básicos del lenguaje. Disponible en ambas ediciones, inglés y español, Una Breve Historia de la Lengua Española, nos brinda una extraordinaria introducción a la fascinante historia de una de las más importantes lenguas del mundo. Spanish is the fourth most widely spoken language in the world and a language of ever-increasing importance in the United States. In what will likely become the introduction to the history of the Spanish language, David Pharies clearly and concisely charts the evolution of Spanish from its Indo-European roots to its present form. An internationally recognized expert on the history and development of this language, Pharies brings to his subject a precise sense of what students of Spanish linguistics need to know. After introductory chapters on what it means to study the history of a language, the concept of linguistic change, and the nature of language families, Pharies traces the development of Spanish from its Latin roots, all with the minimum amount of technical language possible. In the core sections of the book, readers are treated to an engaging and remarkably succinct presentation of the genealogy and development of the language, including accounts of the structures and peculiarities of Latin, the historical and cultural events that deeply influenced the shaping of the language, the nature of Medieval Spanish, the language myths that have become attached to Spanish, and the development of the language beyond the Iberian Peninsula, especially in the Americas. Focusing on the most important facets of the language’s evolution, this compact work makes the history of Spanish accessible to anyone with a knowledge of Spanish and a readiness to grasp basic linguistic concepts. Available in both English and Spanish editions, A Brief History of the Spanish Language provides a truly outstanding introduction to the exciting story of one of the world’s great languages.

Download or read book A Luis Leal Reader written by Luis Leal and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2007-09-11 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since his first publication in 1942, Luis Leal has likely done more than any other writer or scholar to foster a critical appreciation of Mexican, Chicano, and Latin American literature and culture. This volume, bringing together a representative selection of Leal’s writings from the past sixty years, is at once a wide-ranging introduction to the most influential scholar of Latino literature and a critical history of the field as it emerged and developed through the twentieth century. Instrumental in establishing Mexican literary studies in the United States, Leal’s writings on the topic are especially instructive, ranging from essays on the significance of symbolism, culture, and history in early Chicano literature to studies of the more recent use of magical realism and of individual New Mexican, Tejano, and Mexican authors such as Juan Rulfo, Carlos Fuentes, José Montoya, and Mariano Azuela. Clearly and cogently written, these writings bring to bear an encyclopedic knowledge, a deep understanding of history and politics, and an unparalleled command of the aesthetics of storytelling, from folklore to theory. This collection affords readers the opportunity to consider—or reconsider—Latino literature under the deft guidance of its greatest reader.
