Book Juan del Encina  autor de la Carajicomedia

Download or read book Juan del Encina autor de la Carajicomedia written by Govert Westerveld and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ya han pasado cuatro años desde la publicaciónde mi otro libro, en el cual anunciaba que la obra Carajicomedia podría haber sido escrita por Juan del Encina. Con esta idea tan fuera de "la realidad", se había iniciado un proceso de revisar todo lo que se creía y se aceptaba como la verdad. La teoría puede darnos una base para los estudios, pero debemos tener cuidado en no caer en la trampa de la teoría; es decir, en no pretender encontrar "otras verdades". Entre tanto parecen ser que los nuevos métodos estilísticos confirman mi hipótesis. Esto es el motivo de escribir este libro para reconfirmar mi punto de vista del año 2009, de que Juan del Encina es el autor de la obra Carajicomedia, esperando que se abra un nuevo camino en las investigaciones estilísticas.

Book The Spanish Origin of the Checkers and Modern Chess Game  Volume III

Download or read book The Spanish Origin of the Checkers and Modern Chess Game Volume III written by Govert Westerveld and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-10-18 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1987 we have defended in articles that the Spanish queen Isabella I of Castile (Isabel la Catolica) was the new chess queen (dama) on the chessboard. Other publications were in 1990, 1994, 1997, and 2004. And of course, Marilyn Yalom studied our book during her visit to the National Library in The Hague (Holland) before she wrote Birth of the Chess Queen in 2004. In her book one cannot see that in 1987, 1990, and 1994 we already published material about Isabel la Catolica (Isabel I of Castile) being the new powerful dama or chess queen on the chessboard. In other words we can state here that we have been studying Spanish history and its chess literature for over 30 years. Since 2003 we have also known the development of the new bishop in chess."

Book Woldouby s Biography  Extraordinary Senegalese checkers player during his stay in France 1910     1911

Download or read book Woldouby s Biography Extraordinary Senegalese checkers player during his stay in France 1910 1911 written by Govert Westerveld and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-11-09 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every checkers player knows about Woldouby's famous position. This 21 year-old Senegalese drew a lot of attention in Paris in 1910 when he won against all challengers in his store located in the Senegalese village of the Exposition of Jardin d'Acclimatation zoologique. No one understood how this player could win all the games that fast. After Amadou Kandie Woldouby was the second African who participated in a checkers tournament in Paris since he became the city champion in 1911. In 1911 he left France and no one knew his whereabouts since then. In this biography we show that Weiss' golpe (shot) actually was Woldouby's golpe, since he won against Isidore Weiss with it. On the other hand we want to show that Woldouby returned to Senegal in 1911 to take the place of a checkers runner-up in 1913. His biography deserves a worthy place in the history of checkers, as he was the prominent predecessor of the famous Senegalese checkers player Baba Sy.

Book The Medieval Invention of Travel

Download or read book The Medieval Invention of Travel written by Shayne Aaron Legassie and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-04-12 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of the Middle Ages, the economies of Europe, Asia, and northern Africa became more closely integrated, fostering the international and intercontinental journeys of merchants, pilgrims, diplomats, missionaries, and adventurers. During a time in history when travel was often difficult, expensive, and fraught with danger, these wayfarers composed accounts of their experiences in unprecedented numbers and transformed traditional conceptions of human mobility. Exploring this phenomenon, The Medieval Invention of Travel draws on an impressive array of sources to develop original readings of canonical figures such as Marco Polo, John Mandeville, and Petrarch, as well as a host of lesser-known travel writers. As Shayne Aaron Legassie demonstrates, the Middle Ages inherited a Greco-Roman model of heroic travel, which viewed the ideal journey as a triumph over temptation and bodily travail. Medieval travel writers revolutionized this ancient paradigm by incorporating practices of reading and writing into the ascetic regime of the heroic voyager, fashioning a bold new conception of travel that would endure into modern times. Engaging methods and insights from a range of disciplines, The Medieval Invention of Travel offers a comprehensive account of how medieval travel writers and their audiences reshaped the intellectual and material culture of Europe for centuries to come.
