Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Refranero español 3: refranes populares españoles Dichos, proverbios, paremias, adagios y frases hechas La Real Academia de la Lengua Española define la palabra refrán como: Dicho agudo y sentencioso de uso común. Desde la antigüedad nos hemos referido a ellos de diferentes maneras: refranes, dichos, proverbios, adagios, paremias, modismos, locuciones o frases proverbiales. Los refranes -ejemplo del saber popular- pasan de mano en mano, de boca en boca, de generación en generación. Nacen de la observación de la vida, de las experiencias y de los hechos, y son una valiosísima fuente de conocimiento. Para muchos representan el mejor ejemplo de la sapiencia humana, y son aplicables al pasado, el presente y el futuro. Recurrieron a ellos autores como Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Pedro Calderón de la Barca, Fernando de Rojas, Lope de Vega, Juan Ruiz (Arcipreste de Hita), Tirso de Molina (fray Gabriel Téllez), Francisco de Quevedo, José de Cañizares y Suárez de Toledo, Juan Ruiz de Alarcón y Mendoza, don Juan Manuel, Francisco de Rojas Zorrilla, Agustín Moreto y Cavana, Alfonso Martínez de Toledo (Arcipreste de Talavera), Blasco de Garay, Juan de Espinosa, etc. Desde tiempos remotos existe la necesidad de agruparlos y rescatarlos de la tradición oral para trasladarlos a la escrita, obteniendo catálogos paremiológicos como el que se expone. Muestra de ello son las colecciones del marqués de Santillana, Erasmo de Rotterdam, Sem Tob de Carrión, Pedro Vallés, Hernán Núñez, Gonzalo de Correas, Francisco Espinosa, Luis Galindo, Julio Cejador y Frauca, Gerónimo Martín Caro y Cejudo, José María Sbarbi y Osua, Francisco Rodríguez Marín, Seniloquium, Refranes Glosados, Juan Berbua, Juan de Iriarte, Juliana Panizo, Rodríguez, Luis Martínez Kleiser, José María Iribarren, etc. Espero que disfrute de los siguientes 4659 refranes -seguro que muchos de ellos también significan algo especial para usted-, y guarde con cariño este refranero español.

Book The Diario of Christopher Columbus s First Voyage to America  1492 1493

Download or read book The Diario of Christopher Columbus s First Voyage to America 1492 1493 written by and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This definitive edition of Columbus's account of the voyage presents the most accurate printed version of his journal available to date. Unfortunately both Columbus's original manuscript, presented to Ferdinand and Isabella along with other evidence of his discoveries, and a single complete copy have been lost for centuries. The primary surviving record of the voyage-part quotation, part summary of the complete copy-is a transcription made by Bartolome de las Casas in the 1530s. This new edition of the Las Casas manuscript presents its entire contents-including notes, insertions, and canceled text-more accurately, completely, and graphically than any other Spanish text published so far. In addition, the new translation, which strives for readability and accuracy, appears on pages facing the Spanish, encouraging on-the- spot comparisons of the translation with the original. Study of the work is further facilitated by extensive notes, documenting differences between the editors' transcription and translation and those of other transcribers and translators and summarizing current research and debates on unanswered current research and debates on unanswered questions concerning the voyage. In addition to being the only edition in which Spanish and English are presented side by side, this edition includes the only concordance ever prepared for the Diario. Awaited by scholars, this new edition will help reduce the guesswork that has long plagued the study of Columbus's voyage. It may shed light on a number of issues related to Columbus's navigational methods and the identity of his landing places, issues whose resolution depend, at least in part, on an accurate transcription of the Diario. Containing day-by-day accounts of the voyage and the first sighting of land, of the first encounters with the native populations and the first appraisals of his islands explored, and of a suspenseful return voyage to Spain, the Diario provides a fascinating and useful account to historians, geographers, anthropologists, sailors, students, and anyone else interested in the discovery-or in a very good sea story. Oliver Dunn received the PH.D. degree from Cornell University. He is Professor Emeritus in Purdue University and a longtime student of Spanish and early history of Spanish America. James E. Kelley, Jr., received the M.A. degree from American University. A mathematician and computer and management consultant by vocation, for the past twenty years he has studied the history of European cartography and navigation in late-medieval times. Both are members of the Society for the History of Discoveries and have written extensively on the history of navigation and on Columbus's first voyage, Although they remain unconvinced of its conclusions, both were consultants to the National geographic Society's 1986 effort to establish Samana Cay as the site of Columbus's first landing.

Book Gorgias Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Syriac Heritage

Download or read book Gorgias Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Syriac Heritage written by Sebastian P. Brock and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gorgias Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Syriac Heritage (GEDSH) is the first major encyclopedia-type reference work devoted exclusively to Syriac Christianity, both as a field of scholarly inquiry and as the inheritance of Syriac Christians today. In more than 600 entries it covers the Syriac heritage from its beginnings in the first centuries of the Common Era up to the present day. Special attention is given to authors, literary works, scholars, and locations that are associated with the Classical Syriac tradition. Within this tradition, the diversity of Syriac Christianity is highlighted as well as Syriac Christianity's broader literary and historical contexts, with major entries devoted to Greek and Arabic authors and more general themes, such as Syriac Christianity's contacts with Judaism and Islam, and with Armenian, Coptic, Ethiopian, and Georgian Christianities.

Book New Worlds

    Book Details:
  • Author : John Lynch
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2012-06-26
  • ISBN : 0300183747
  • Pages : 582 pages

Download or read book New Worlds written by John Lynch and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-26 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extraordinary book encompasses the time period from the first Christian evangelists' arrival in Latin America to the dictators of the late twentieth century. With unsurpassed knowledge of Latin American history, John Lynch sets out to explore the reception of Christianity by native peoples and how it influenced their social and religious lives as the centuries passed. As attentive to modern times as to the colonial period, Lynch also explores the extent to which Indian religion and ancestral ways survived within the new Christian culture.The book follows the development of religious culture over time by focusing on peak periods of change: the response of religion to the Enlightenment, the emergence of the Church from the wars of independence, the Romanization of Latin American religion as the papacy overtook the Spanish crown in effective control of the Church, the growing challenge of liberalism and the secular state, and in the twentieth century, military dictators' assaults on human rights. Throughout the narrative, Lynch develops a number of special themes and topics. Among these are the Spanish struggle for justice for Indians, the Church's position on slavery, the concept of popular religion as distinct from official religion, and the development of liberation theology.

Book The Long  Lingering Shadow

    Book Details:
  • Author : Robert J. Cottrol
  • Publisher : University of Georgia Press
  • Release : 2013-02-01
  • ISBN : 0820344761
  • Pages : 388 pages

Download or read book The Long Lingering Shadow written by Robert J. Cottrol and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students of American history know of the law’s critical role in systematizing a racial hierarchy in the United States. Showing that this history is best appreciated in a comparative perspective, The Long, Lingering Shadow looks at the parallel legal histories of race relations in the United States, Brazil, and Spanish America. Robert J. Cottrol takes the reader on a journey from the origins of New World slavery in colonial Latin America to current debates and litigation over affirmative action in Brazil and the United States, as well as contemporary struggles against racial discrimination and Afro-Latin invisibility in the Spanish-speaking nations of the hemisphere. Ranging across such topics as slavery, emancipation, scientific racism, immigration policies, racial classifications, and legal processes, Cottrol unravels a complex odyssey. By the eve of the Civil War, the U.S. slave system was rooted in a legal and cultural foundation of racial exclusion unmatched in the Western Hemisphere. That system’s legacy was later echoed in Jim Crow, the practice of legally mandated segregation. Jim Crow in turn caused leading Latin Americans to regard their nations as models of racial equality because their laws did not mandate racial discrimination— a belief that masked very real patterns of racism throughout the Americas. And yet, Cottrol says, if the United States has had a history of more-rigid racial exclusion, since the Second World War it has also had a more thorough civil rights revolution, with significant legal victories over racial discrimination. Cottrol explores this remarkable transformation and shows how it is now inspiring civil rights activists throughout the Americas.

Book Verbal Periphrases in a Functional Grammar of Spanish

Download or read book Verbal Periphrases in a Functional Grammar of Spanish written by Hella Olbertz and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 1998 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contains a description of all the different types of verbal periphrases used in modern peninsular Spanish. Defining periphrases as "productive verbal constructions with a partially grammaticized finite verb," the study strives to account for the partly lexical and partly grammatical status of periphrases within the theoretical framework of Functional Grammar--which views language as a tool for verbal communication rather than as an autonomous system. The study finds that, for certain complexities of periphrase usage, Functional Grammar needs to be adapted. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Book Colour of Paradise

    Book Details:
  • Author : Kris E. Lane
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2010-03-30
  • ISBN : 030016470X
  • Pages : 299 pages

Download or read book Colour of Paradise written by Kris E. Lane and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the magnificent gems and jewels left behind by the great Islamic empires, emeralds stand out for their size and prominence. For the Mughals, Ottomans, and Safavids green was—as it remains for all Muslims—the color of Paradise, reserved for the Prophet Muhammad and his descendants. Tapping a wide range of sources, Kris Lane traces the complex web of global trading networks that funneled emeralds from backland South America to populous Asian capitals between the sixteenth and the eighteenth centuries. Lane reveals the bloody conquest wars and forced labor regimes that accompanied their production. It is a story of trade, but also of transformations—how members of profoundly different societies at opposite ends of the globe assigned value to a few thousand pounds of imperfectly shiny green rocks.
