Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spain and the Spaniards, in 1843, Vol. 1 Asturias, and Galicia, to Vigo, and then embark for England. We preferred the spring, because - although in Spain the weather is often very unsettled at that season, heavy rains interrupting the communi cation, rendering travelling uncertain and dis agreeable - with a limited time upon your hands, it is upon the whole the best; the vegetation is in its greatest beauty; the days are lengthening, and the weather improving; by regulating your movements, as I had planned, and moving north wards, you avoid the great heat, which in the southern provinces is considerable by the middle of June.

Download or read book Spain of the Spanish Classic Reprint written by Mrs. Villiers-Wardell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spain of the Spanish I have said, somewhere in the chapter on Literature, that a true realist must set aside his personal thoughts and feelings and content himself with stating facts. But then one cannot state facts unless one knows them, and one cannot know a Country and a People unless one is in sympathy with them. And the parent of sympathy is understanding, just as the parent Of understanding is trust. And so we find ourselves once again appreciating that most splendid quality of the Spaniard to which I have above alluded! It is very possible that here and there in these pages English readers may find ideas and sentiments with which they are not in accord, but always the title Of the book must be remembered. Spain of the English is not at all the same thing as Spain of the Spanish! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spain and the Spaniards, Vol. 2 of 2 As on arriving at Madrid by way of the north, so on leaving it by way of the south, one must pass through a desolate country that resembles the poorest provinces of Arragon and Old Castile. There are vast plains, parched and yellow, which look as though they would echo like a hollow passageway if one were to strike them, or crumble like the crust of a crisp tart. And through the plains are scattered a few wretched villages of the same color as the soil, which seem as though they would take fire like a pile of dry leaves if one were to touch a torch to the corner of one of the huts. After an hour of travel my shoulders sought the cushions of the carriage, my elbow sought for a support, my head sought my hand, and I fell into a deep sleep like a member of Leopardi's "Assembly of Listeners." A few minutes after I had closed my eyes I was rudely awakened by a desperate cry from the women and children, and leaped to my feet, demanding of my neighbors what had occurred. But before I had ended my question a general burst of laughter reassured me. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare and Spain The extent of an author's acquaintance with the language of a foreign country is obviously an important factor in considering the possible influences exercised upon him by that country's literature. None of the known facts of Shakespeare's life would lead us to suppose that he had natural opportunities of acquiring Spanish, as he certainly had of acquiring French.

Spain, with all her faults, is still and shall ever be the object of his love. But since no man, within the limits of her territory, can venture to lay open the canker which, fostered by religion, feeds on the root of her political improvements, be it allowed a self-banished Spaniard to describe the sources of such a strange anomaly in the New.

This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Spanish Literature, Vol. 1 of 3 The natural result of such a long-continued interest in Spanish literature, and of so many pleasant inducements to study it, has been - I speak in a spirit of extenuation and self-defence - a book. In the interval between my two residences m Europe I delivered lectures upon its principal topics to successive classes in Harvard College; and, on my return home from the second, I endeavoured to arrange these lectures for publication. But when I had already employed much labour and time on them, I found -or thought I found - that the tone of discussion which I had adopted for my academical audiences was not suited to the purposes of a regular history. Destroying, there fore, what I had written, I began afresh my never un welcome task, and so have prepared the present work, as little connected with all I had previously done as it, perhaps, can be, and yet cover so much of the same ground.

Download or read book Home Life in Spain Classic Reprint written by S. L. Bensusan and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Life in Spain My acquaintance with Spain dates back nearly twenty years. Since the first trip to Andalusia, taken on a tramp steamer that still fills a leading role when I suffer from nightmare, I have revisited the south half a dozen times and lived awhile in centre, north, and east. On several occasions holiday-making has provided the sole excuse for a visit, but I have acted as special correspondent to two daily papers, and this work gave me my first insight into the working of Spain's political machine. Of the fascination of the country and the charm of the people there is little set down in the following pages, not that it is possible to forget either, but because many pens have made the recital more tedious than a twice told tale. In the preparation of this volume I have relied for the most part upon memory and Charles Rudy. He it is who has set me right when memory tired or sought to play me false; in his pleasant company I still recall incidents of half-forgotten days and nights spent in the most fascinating country in Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Music of Spain As Music and Spain is printed from the original plates I have made only slight typo graphical changes in the text; some of these are important, however. But I have added very voluminous notes incorporating information that has come to me since I wrote Music and Spain. There is much new material included therein about Spanish dancing and modern composers and the index will make it possible for any one to find what he may be looking for in short order. The essay on Carmen, too, was written for this book and that on The Land of Joy, being entirely appo site, I have lifted from The merry-go-round. Mr. John Garrett Underhill has suggested many valuable changes and additions and I am deeply indebted to him.
