Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Cómo una lengua que nació en unas aldeas perdidas del norte de España ha llegado a convertirse en la segunda del mundo, con más de 500 millones de hablantes en los cinco continentes? El siglo VIII fue una época compleja y oscura para la península ibérica. Sin embargo, en unos poblados perdidos al norte de la vieja Hispania se gestaba la que llegaría a ser, con el tiempo, la lengua española, con cientos de millones de hablantes distribuidos en los cinco continentes. Cómo fue posible tal prodigio? ¿Quién escribió las primeras palabras en castellano? ¿Cómo era la lengua en la Castilla de las tres religiones? ¿Dónde se imprimió el primer libro en España? ¿Cómo se difundió el español entre los pueblos de América, África o Filipinas? ¿Por qué se habló español en Italia o en los Países Bajos? Este libro nos cuenta la historia del español como si de una gran aventura se tratara; la aventura de la lengua y la aventura de sus hablantes, que la llevaron de las aldeas a los palacios, de los caminos a los conventos y de las posadas a los documentos oficiales. La lengua española viajará a América con los soldados, los clérigos, los funcionarios, los artesanos, hasta convertirse en lengua general. Con el tiempo las colonias desaparecerían, pero la lengua permanecería tras las independencias americanas y seguiría creciendo en recursos y hablantes como idioma de una rica comunidad internacional. El Instituto Cervantes es la institución pública creada por España en 1991 para la promoción y la enseñanza de la lengua española y de las lenguas cooficiales, y para la difusión de la cultura española e hispanoamericana. Está presente en 90 ciudades de 43 países en los cinco continentes. Francisco Moreno Fernández, autor del texto, es catedrático de Lengua Española de la Universidad de Alcalá. Ha sido director académico del Instituto Cervantes y en la actualidad es director ejecutivo del Observatorio de la lengua española y las culturas hispánicas en los Estados Unidos, centro del Instituto Cervantes en la Universidad de Harvard.

Book excerpt: Cerca de quinientos millones de personas tienen el español como lengua materna, una lengua puente que une a hablantes de más de veinte países repartidos por todo el globo. Tan considerable extensión, unida a una vitalidad extraordinaria, hacen del español un idioma que, manteniendo su unidad, se expresa con variedades y matices propios en cada uno de los países que lo han hecho suyo, con modalidades tan radicales como el lunfardo argentino o el yanito gibraltareño. Por eso, aunque entre nosotros nos entendamos sin mayor esfuerzo, en el día a día esas variantes pueden provocar pequeños desencuentros, situaciones divertidas y curiosas que este libro recoge de la mano de algunos de nuestros autores más representativos de uno y otro lado del charco.

This book was released on 2015-12-30 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You know you're doing something right when your nation's language is sometimes referred to by your name. So it was with Miguel de Cervantes, a Spanish novelist, poet, and playwright whose Don Quixote is often regarded as the first modern novel and an unquestioned classic of Western literature. Don Quixote's influence on the Spanish language was so profound that the language is sometimes referred to as la lengua de Cervantes ("the language of Cervantes").

Download or read book The Exemplary Novels of Cervantes written by Miguel de Cervantes and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Novelas ejemplares ("Exemplary Novels") is a series of twelve novellas that follow the model established in Italy, written by Miguel de Cervantes between 1590 and 1612. The collection was printed in Madrid in 1613 by Juan de la Cuesta, and received well in the wake of the first part of Don Quixote. Cervantes boasted in his foreword to have been the first to write novelas in the Spanish language: My genius and my inclination prompt me to this kind of writing; the more so as I consider (and with truth) that I am the first who has written novels in the Spanish language, though many have hitherto appeared among us, all of them translated from foreign authors. But these are my own, neither imitated nor stolen from anyone; my genius has engendered them, my pen has brought them forth, and they are growing up in the arms of the press. The novellas are usually grouped into two series: those characterized by an idealized nature and those of a realistic nature. Those idealized in nature, which are the closest to the Italian models, are characterized by plots dealing with amorous entanglements, by improbable plots, by the presence of idealized characters and psychological development, and the low reflection of reality. They include: El amante liberal, Las dos doncellas, La española inglesa, La señora Cornelia and La fuerza de la sangre. These seré The most popular of the novellas at the time. The realistic in nature cater to the descriptions of realistic characters and environments, with intentional criticism in many cases. The realistic in nature are the best-known stories today: Rinconete y Cortadillo, El licenciado Vidriera, La gitanilla, El casamiento engañoso (which leads directly into the fantasy El coloquio de los perros), and La ilustre fregona. However, the separation between the two groups is not sharp and elements of the idealistic may be found in some of the realistic novels. Since there are multiple versions of two of these stories, it is believed that Cervantes introduced some variations in these novels for moral, social and aesthetic purposes (hence the name 'exemplary'). The more primitive versions were found in the manuscript, now lost, called by the name of its one-time possessor, Porras de la Cámara, a miscellaneous collection of various literary works which include a novel usually attributed to Cervantes, La tía fingida. On the other hand, some short stories are also embedded in Don Quixote, such as El curioso impertinente or Historia del cautivo, and where a character possesses a manuscript of Rinconete y Cortadillo, unpublished at the time (1605).

Download or read book Cervantes Don Quixote written by Roberto Gonzalez Echevarria and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-10 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This casebook gathers a collection of ambitious essays about both parts of the novel (1605 and 1615) and also provides a general introduction and a bibliography. The essays range from Ram?n Men?ndez Pidal's seminal study of how Cervantes dealt with chivalric literature to Erich Auerbachs polemical study of Don Quixote as essentially a comic book by studying its mixture of styles, and include Leo Spitzer's masterful probe into the essential ambiguity of the novel through minute linguistic analysis of Cervantes' prose. The book includes pieces by other major Cervantes scholars, such as Manuel Dur?n and Edward C. Riley, as well as younger scholars like Georgina Dopico Black. All these essays ultimately seek to discover that which is peculiarly Cervantean in Don Quixote and why it is considered to be the first modern novel.
