Download or read book Mexican Americans and Language written by Glenn A. Mart’nez and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2006-04-06 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When political activists rallied for the abolition of bilingual education and even called for the declaration of English as an official language, Mexican Americans and other immigrant groups saw this as an assault on their heritage and civil rights. Because language is such a defining characteristic of Mexican American ethnicity, nearly every policy issue that touches their lives involves language in one way or another. This book offers an overview of some of the central issues in the Mexican American language experience, describing it in terms of both bilingualism and minority status. It is the first book to focus on the historical, social, political, and structural aspects of multiple languages in the Mexican American experience and to address the principles and methods of applied sociolinguistic research in the Mexican American community. Spanish and non-Spanish speakers in the Mexican American community share a common set of social and ethnic bonds. They also share a common experience of bilingualism. As MartA-nez observes, the ideas that have been constructed around bilingualism are as important to understanding the Mexican American language experience as bilingualism itself. Mexican Americans and Language gives students the background they need to respond to the multiple social problems that can result from the language differences that exist in the Mexican American community. By showing students how to go from word to deed (del dicho al hecho), it reinforces the importance of language for their community, and for their own lives and futures.

Download or read book A History of the Inquisition of Spain Volume IV written by Henry Charles Lea and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-01-12 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fourth and final volume mainly continues where Volume III left off. This book continues to explore the areas the inquisition had influence and the way it found out how heretics emerged and worked in the respective fields the inquisition caught them in. Although the methods were brutal and the victims often innocent, the inquisition shows how thorough it was when dealing with these "sins." And then finally, Lea shows us the steady decline of the inquisition after the wars of Napoleon and how they tried to survive but failed.
