Book excerpt: An essay is quite often a short bit of writing on a particular topic of interest to the author of course, but also, of interest to others who may have sought to walk along a shared intellectual path. Some might argue that essays are nonfiction writings designed as intellectual or even academic exercises and explorations.Writing seems both within and between, an inward exploration and outward manifestation. The ideas and themes contained herein weave together like aspects of a web and they are also the web itself, cast wide and now hold a grand diversity, an incredible bounty for the eye, mind, and spirit.I have always enjoyed imagining how writers and artists from the past, whether friends or competitors, or in many cases both, were known to have met together in cafés or pubs or other public and private haunts to share and perhaps to be raucous in their love of the creative process with all of its pushes and pulls. This project is one such example; albeit a conceptual café, as we are a collective of creative spirits living, working, and traveling around the globe. Within this volume are twenty essays contributed by eighteen authors sharing on topics ranging from physical to emotional incarceration, political liberation, spiritual elevation, and professional, personal, and poetic journeys traversing all manner of road and byway. Simply put, you are invited to see as Janus the Roman god was believed to have seen, simultaneously inward and outward. Each essayist was invited to write about whatever was on his or her mind or heart, which is to say they were asked to write about anything that they have wanted or needed to say. There were no maximum or minimum limits placed on length, number of pages or word count, besides, what reasonable person would ask another to contain their truths in such a way. All essays were form fitted in terms of typography, pagination and formatting for purposes of publication but no essay was harmed in the making of this book.

Download or read book New worlds for old words Mundos nuevos para viejas palabras written by Christopher J. Pountain and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "New worlds for old words / Mundos nuevos para viejas palabras" is a collection of chapters on the theme of lexical borrowing in the languages of Western Europe with particular focus on borrowing from Latin, or from Greek via Latin, into Spanish. Such cultured, or “learnèd” borrowing—as it has sometimes been designated—, is an especially intriguing feature of the Romance languages, since they also derive from Latin. It is also of particular interest to historical linguists since it is an example of what has been called “change from above”: innovation first evidenced in the written usage of the culturally élite which then diffuses into more general acceptance, with the result that some cultured borrowings (e.g. problem/problema, social, program(me)/programa) are now amongst the most common words in the modern languages. Despite their enormous influence on such major languages as English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Italian, the mechanisms by which these borrowings become established in their host languages have to date been relatively little studied. This book seeks to make a contribution to this question and revive interest in what has become a neglected area of historical linguistics and contains contributions both by internationally respected scholars and new researchers in the field. This bilingual collection will appeal to academics, scholars, and postgraduate students of Hispanic Studies, Cultural History, and particularly Historical Linguistics and Romance Linguistics. "New worlds for old words / Mundos nuevos para viejas palabras" es una colección sobre los préstamos léxicos en los idiomas de Europa occidental, centrándose sobre todo en los préstamos del latín, o del griego a través del latín, al español. Los cultismos son un rasgo especialmente interesante de las lenguas romances, ya que ellos mismos proceden del latín. También es de gran interés para la lingüística histórica dado que es un ejemplo de lo que se conoce como “cambio desde arriba”: cambios atestiguados primero en la lengua escrita de la élite cultural que luego comienza a tener un uso más generalizado, y cuyo resultado es que algunos de estos cultismos (por ejemplo “problema”, “social”, “programa”) se encuentran entre las palabras más comunes en los idiomas modernos. A pesar de su enorme influencia en lenguas tan importantes como el inglés, el español, el portugués, el francés o el italiano, los mecanismos por los que estos préstamos se establecen en los idiomas de acogida se han estudiado relativamente poco hasta ahora. Este volumen es una contribución a esta cuestión y su objetivo es reavivar el interés en lo que se ha convertido en un área olvidada de la lingüística diacrónica. Se incluyen capítulos de académicos conocidos internacionalmente y de investigadores noveles. Esta colección bilingüe será de gran utilidad para académicos, investigadores y alumnos de posgrado en estudios hispánicos, estudios culturales, y particularmente lingüística histórica y lingüística de las lenguas romances.
Download or read book The Cardboard House written by Martín Adán and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09-25 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping, kaleidoscopic, and passionate novel that presents a stunning series of flashes — scenes, moods, dreams, and weather— as the narrator wanders through Lima. Published in 1928 to great acclaim when its author was just twenty years old, The Cardboard House is sweeping, kaleidoscopic, and passionate. The novel presents a stunning series of flashes — scenes, moods, dreams, and weather— as the narrator wanders through Barranco (then an exclusive seaside resort outside Lima). In one beautiful, radical passage after another, he skips from reveries of first loves, South Pole explorations, and ocean tides, to precise and unashamed notations of class and of race: an Indian woman “with her hard,shiny, damp head of hair—a mud carving,” to a gringo gobbling “synthetic milk,canned meat, hard liquor.” Adán’s own aristocratic family was in financial freefall at the time, and, as the translator notes, The Cardboard House is as “subversive now as when it was written: Adán’s uncompromising poetic vision and the trueness and poetry of his voice constitute a heroic act against cultural colonialism.”

Download or read book Words of the True Peoples Palabras de los Seres Verdaderos written by Carlos Montemayor and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-05-06 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the larger, ongoing movement throughout Latin America to reclaim non-Hispanic cultural heritages and identities, indigenous writers in Mexico are reappropriating the written word in their ancestral tongues and in Spanish. As a result, the long-marginalized, innermost feelings, needs, and worldviews of Mexico's ten to twenty million indigenous peoples are now being widely revealed to the Western societies with which these peoples coexist. To contribute to this process and serve as a bridge of intercultural communication and understanding, this groundbreaking, three-volume anthology gathers works by the leading generation of writers in thirteen Mexican indigenous languages: Nahuatl, Maya, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Tojolabal, Tabasco Chontal, Purepecha, Sierra Zapoteco, Isthmus Zapoteco, Mazateco, Ñahñu, Totonaco, and Huichol. Volume Two contains poetry by Mexican indigenous writers. Their poems appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Montemayor and Frischmann have abundantly annotated the Spanish, English, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that discuss the formal and linguistic qualities of the poems, as well as their place within contemporary poetry. These supporting materials make the anthology especially accessible and interesting for nonspecialist readers seeking a greater understanding of Mexico's indigenous peoples.

Download or read book Palabras Para Rescatar written by Manuel Rodr Guez Espejo and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PA L A B R A S Q U E R E S C ATA R aporta 30 temas que pretenden hacer reflexionar al lector/a sobre otras tantas palabras que necesitan ser repensadas, porque la fe, como la vida misma, es continuo proceso de profundización. Lo más auténtico de nuestro ser no está en la superficie, ni siquiera en la inteligencia, sino en el descubrimiento de eso que llamamos "sabiduría divina", que se nos transmite en el contacto con la palabra, escuchada con el corazón y reflexionada también con un corazón sencillo, como de hijo que confía en su padre/madre. No todos los 30 capítulos tienen la misma longitud. Unos son más para ser leídos y otros, para ser trabajados. He buscado, en todos, palabras necesitadas de rescate, de actualización, palabras esenciales, como: voluntad, libertad, eucaristía, fe, perdón, Nueva Evangelización, familia, luz, oración, prueba, sufrimiento, servicio, vida cristiana, vida consagrada, acción de gracias, cuaresma, sanación, conversión, corrección fraterna, María, política y cristianismo... He tenido una doble intención: que pueda ser leído por adultos y jóvenes; y que los padres o educadores puedan usarlo con sus hijos o alumnos.
