Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Me siento solo». Ésta fue la reflexión de Charles Chaplin cuando se descubrió que no había vida en Marte. Comenzaba la década de los ochenta y las primeras sondas investigadoras enviadas por la Nasa comprobaron que no había posibilidad de que existiesen seres vivos en ese planeta y el genial actor pronunció esas palabras delante de la prensa cuando le preguntaron su opinión sobre la noticia. Vivimos en un mundo perfectamente comunicado, pero solitario al mismo tiempo. Necesitamos volver a tener y a ser amigos. Éste es un libro sobre la amistad y las relaciones con los demás escrito en 30 capítulos, uno para cada día del mes. Tú decides cómo leerlo. Lo único importante es tener tiempo para reflexionar y aplicar lo que estás leyendo. Si lo haces con naturalidad y le dedicas tu atención, verás cómo todo fluye.

Download or read book The Spines of Love written by Víctor Terán and published by Restless Books. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spines of Love collects work from Víctor Terán’s poetic oeuvre for the first time in a trilingual edition: in their original Isthmus Zapotec (an endangered indigenous Mexican language) and in David Shook’s Spanish and English translations. Sensual and intricately wrought, these poems take readers on an emotional journey through love and loss with a searing lyricism entirely Terán’s own. His lover’s body is a city where the poet can “give perfect directions,” her name slips over his tongue “like a fish between the hands / of a fisherman,” and when she leaves him it’s with memories like “an ocean of incessant fish.” The Spines of Love stands for a simple but bracing truth: Yes, love can hurt, but even after it departs, it strengthens us. Praise for The Spines of Love “I’m reminded of Pablo Neruda in a bitter mood. The poems are about lost love and betrayal, and the long free verse poems with short lines owe something to Neruda’s laconic and confessional style. There’s also a dry wit in these pages....There are times it teeters on the edge of the sentimental, but somehow regains its balance just in time....Full of delightful twists of image when describing the poet’s emotions....His style is graceful and vivid, his subjects compellingly familiar.” —Judi Sutherland, Sabotage Reviews “A significant array of stateless languages and cultures, while positioned outside the reach of dominant nation-states, has begun more recently to create new literatures as vehicles for those outsidered by the ruling powers....Like others so engaged, and perhaps more than most, Víctor Terán begins from a base in the Zapotec spoken–and now written–on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and in Oaxaca, and pushes outward to merge and become a part of the poetry and literature of the world at large....The importance of these poetries for a new poetry and poetics of the Americas is by now irreversible—or should be. Terán’s forthcoming publication by Restless Books in Brooklyn is but another step in that direction.” —Jerry Rothenberg, “Poetry and Poetics” blog for Jacket 2 Víctor Terán is the preeminent living poet of the Isthmus Zapotec language of Southern Oaxaca, Mexico. His work has been translated and anthologized around the world. He’s published three books of poems in Spanish, a book of children’s poetry, and is currently completing a translation of 40 world poets into Isthmus Zapotec. In Shook’s translation his work has appeared in Poetry, World Literature Today, Hayden’s Ferry Review, Agenda, Modern Poetry in Translation, Oxford Magazine, PN Review, and a Poetry Translation Centre chapbook. He’s been nominated for a Pushcart Prize and featured on BBC4. In 2010 he toured the UK, setting records for chapbook sales for the Poetry Translation Centre. A series of recordings made at the BBC Studios are available online. David Shook is a poet, translator, and filmmaker in Los Angeles, where he edits molossus and Phoneme Media. His most recent translations include work by Mario Bellatin, Tedi López Mills, and Oswald de Andrade. His indigenous Mexican translations include work from Zoque and Nahuatl, which he studied in San Agustín Oapan, in Guerrero. He’s currently producing a documentary about Víctor Terán’s work to preserve the Isthmus Zapotec language.

This book was released on 2024-05-20 with total page 718 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These volumes contain a selection of contributions first presented at the 21st International Colloquium on Latin Linguistics, held in Santiago de Compostela (2022). They cover essential topics in Latin linguistics from a variety of theoretical and methodological approaches. The first volume includes papers on Latin Syntax and Semantics, Latin Syntax and Pragmatics, Greek-Latin language, and Digital Linguistics. The contributions report on the latest research into very relevant issues in specific areas such as definiteness, casual syntax, sentence structure, word order, etc.; in addition, the most recent methodological advances using a variety of databases, a key tool in contemporary research, are presented. The second volume includes papers on Semantics and Lexicography, Etymology, Discourse strategies, and a special section devoted to the analysis of Conversation and Dialogue. The contributions report on the latest research into highly relevant issues in specific areas such as nominal and adjectival lexicology from both a synchronic and a diachronic perspectives, the use of Greek words as a vehicle for the expression of philosophical concepts, the choice and rendering of various linguistic strategies in direct and indirect discourse, etc. A particularly innovative section deals with various aspects of conversational language in a number of text types, as well as the use of different devices that contribute to the expression of (im)politeness by participants in the speech act. A knowledge of the work collected in these volumes is essential for all those involved in research in the field of Latin linguistics.

Download or read book Pedro Men ndez de Avil s and the Conquest of Florida written by Gonzalo Solís de Merás and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2020-10-20 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pedro Menéndez de Avilés (1519–1574) founded St. Augustine in 1565. His expedition was documented by his brother-in-law, Gonzalo Solís de Merás, who left a detailed and passionate account of the events leading to the establishment of America’s oldest city. Until recently, the only extant version of Solís de Merás’s record was one single manuscript that Eugenio Ruidíaz y Caravia transcribed in 1893, and subsequent editions and translations have always followed Ruidíaz’s text. In 2012, David Arbesú discovered a more complete record: a manuscript including folios lost for centuries and, more important, excluding portions of the 1893 publication based on retellings rather than the original document. In the resulting volume, Pedro Menéndez de Avilés and the Conquest of Florida, Arbesú sheds light on principal events missing from the story of St. Augustine’s founding. By consulting the original chronicle, Arbesú provides readers with the definitive bilingual edition of this seminal text.
