Download or read book Behind Spanish American Footlights written by Willis Knapp Jones and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-07-29 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across a five-hundred-year sweep of history, Willis Knapp Jones surveys the native drama and the Spanish influence upon it in nineteen South American countries, and traces the development of their national theatres to the 1960s. This volume, filled with a fascinating array of information, sparkles with wit while giving the reader a fact-filled course in the history of Spanish American drama that he can get nowhere else. This is the first book in English ever to consider the theatre of all the Spanish American countries. Even in Spanish, the pioneer study that covers the whole field was also written by Jones. Jones sees the history of a nation in the history of its drama. Pre-Columbian Indians, conquistadores, missionary priests, viceroys, dictators, and national heroes form a background of true drama for the main characters here—those who wrote and produced and acted in the make-believe drama of the times. The theatre mirrors the whole life of the community, Jones believes, and thus he offers information about geography, military events, and economics, and follows the politics of state and church through dramatists’ offerings. Examining the plays of a people down the centuries, he shows how the many cultural elements of both Old and New Worlds have been blended into the distinct national characteristics of each of the Spanish American countries. He does full justice to the subject he loves. A lively storyteller, he adds tidbits of spice and laughter, long-buried vignettes of history, tales of politics and drama, stories of high and low life, plots of plays, bits of verse, accounts of dalliance and of hard work, and sad and happy endings of rulers and peons, dramatists, actors, and clowns. A valuable appendix is a selected reading guide, listing the outstanding works of important Spanish American dramatists. A generous bibliography is a useful addition for scholars.
Download or read book A History of Afro Hispanic Language written by John M. Lipski and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-03-10 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African slave trade, beginning in the fifteenth century, brought African languages into contact with Spanish and Portuguese, resulting in the Africans' gradual acquisition of these languages. In this 2004 book, John Lipski describes the major forms of Afro-Hispanic language found in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America over the last 500 years. As well as discussing pronunciation, morphology and syntax, he separates legitimate forms of Afro-Hispanic expression from those that result from racist stereotyping, to assess how contact with the African diaspora has had a permanent impact on contemporary Spanish. A principal issue is the possibility that Spanish, in contact with speakers of African languages, may have creolized and restructured - in the Caribbean and perhaps elsewhere - permanently affecting regional and social varieties of Spanish today. The book is accompanied by the largest known anthology of primary Afro-Hispanic texts from Iberia, Latin America, and former Afro-Hispanic contacts in Africa and Asia.

Book excerpt: DE LA AUTORA AL LECTOR Haciendo un resumen del libro, sobre los diferentes temas que abarca, quiero hacer énfasis en la veracidad del mismo; son mis deseos que el lector, al pasar sus páginas haya encontrado temas en los cuales se detenga a analizar, encontrará fragmentos de la vida, con los cuales podrá identificarse, meditará sobre aquello que no comprenda...canalizará sus emociones con la nostalgia que invada su corazón, viajará en su pensamiento y llegará a la Tierra prometida... Creo que este sencillo libro les traerá un mensaje; las vidas serán tocadas en sus sentimientos y en sus pensamientos; pero sobre todo lo expuesto está .... el grande y misericordioso amor de Dios...tan necesario para un mundo que se desploma bajo el peso de la incredulidad y la falta de humanismo. Son mis mejores deseos que disfruten ésta obra, y aquello que no hayan podido entender, porque no presenta lógica a su intelecto, medite sobre ello y pueda captar con el discernimiento del espíritu lo que por el sentido de la lógica no haya podido comprender. Estimado lector, en derredor nuestro hay mundos que se entrelazan, y solamente a través del espíritu es que podemos discernirlos, ore, medite, alabe, tenga lapsos de silencio en la presencia de Dios, y misterios le serán revelados...a su mente, a su corazón, a su espíritu, la gracia del Dios infinito y su poder manifiesto, tocaran su vida y transformará la rutina de su diario vivir en una fuente de energías que como caudales que se desbordan correrán como aguas vivas a través de su espíritu llenándolo con el poder que lo cubre; el Dios de amor de la Biblia.
