Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Libro de la caza de las aves. Pero López de Ayala Fragmento de la obra De cada día vieron los hombres cómo, naturalmente, unas aves toman a otras y se ceban y alimentan de ellas, y las tales aves son llamadas de rapiña: así como son águilas, azores, halcones, gavilanes, esmerejones, alcotanes y otras. Y estas dichas aves, salvo el águila, nunca comen otra carne si no fuere de aves que ellas por sí toman y cazan; pero el águila cuando no puede tomar o cazar algún ave de las que acostumbra tomar o cazar, torna a tomar liebre, o conejo, o cordero pequeño, y aun viene al perro muerto, por la gran glotonería que en ella hay. Y hay, también, otras aves que algunas veces se ceban de las aves que toman, pero comúnmente sus viandas son carnizas de bestias muertas, así como son los cuervos carniceros, que muchas veces toman aves vivas, pero su caza natural es carniza de bestias muertas y de aquello tienen su mantenimiento. También hay otras aves que se cuentan entre las rapaces y toman y cazan aves vivas, e igualmente toman y se ceban de ratones y de tales cosas que se crían en la tierra; y entre ellas están las atahormas y budalones y aguiluchos. En todas las aves de rapiña son mayores las hembras que los machos. Y hay otras aves que su mantenimiento solo es de carnizas, y no toman aves vivas, así como buitres, abantos, quebrantahuesos. Hay otras aves que su mantenimiento es de carnizas, gusanos de la tierra y frutas, así como son cornejas, picazas, y otras. También hay otras aves que su mantenimiento es de simientes, así como avutardas, grullas, perdices, palomas, tórtolas, pájaros. Y también hay otras aves que su mantenimiento es de pescados, así como águila pescadora y alcatraces y otras aves de mar. Y hay otras aves que andan ribera de las aguas y su mantenimiento es peces menudos y gusanos de los que se crían en el agua y fuera, en las hierbas; son ánades, cisnes, ánsares bravas y otras. Así pues, las hay de muchas maneras y diversidades y de diferentes alimentaciones, pero de todas las aves las más limpias son aquéllas que solamente se alimentan y mantienen de aves vivas, y cada vez que se quieren cebar toman ave viva, y desde que se han cebado de ella no cuidan de lo que queda y aunque al otro día lo hallen, no se preocupan sino de buscar y cazar otra ave viva para su comer. Y estos son azores y halcones, gavilanes, esmerejones, alcotanes.

Book Rural Space in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Age

Download or read book Rural Space in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Age written by Albrecht Classen and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-05-29 with total page 932 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Older research on the premodern world limited its focus on the Church, the court, and, more recently, on urban space. The present volume invites readers to consider the meaning of rural space, both in light of ecocritical readings and social-historical approaches. While previous scholars examined the figure of the peasant in the premodern world, the current volume combines a large number of specialized studies that investigate how the natural environment and the appearance of members of the rural population interacted with the world of the court and of the city. The experience in rural space was important already for writers and artists in the premodern era, as the large variety of scholarly approaches indicates. The present volume signals how much the surprisingly close interaction between members of the aristocratic and of the peasant class determined many literary and art-historical works. In a surprisingly large number of cases we can even discover elements of utopia hidden in rural space. We also observe how much the rural world was a significant element already in early-medieval mentality. Moreover, as many authors point out, the impact of natural forces on premodern society was tremendous, if not catastrophic.

Book Compound Words in Spanish

Download or read book Compound Words in Spanish written by María Irene Moyna and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2011-07-12 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book devoted entirely to the history of compound words in Spanish. Based on data obtained from Spanish dictionaries and databases of the past thousand years, it documents the evolution of the major compounding patterns of the language. It analyzes the structural, semantic, and orthographic features of each compound type, and also provides a description of its Latin antecedents, early attestations, and relative frequency and productivity over the centuries. The combination of qualitative and quantitative data shows that although most compound types have survived, they have undergone changes in word order and relative frequency. Moreover, the book shows that the evolution of compounding in Spanish may be accounted for by processes of language acquisition in children. This book, which includes all the data in chronological and alphabetical order, will be a valuable resource for morphologists, Romance linguists, and historical linguists more generally.

Book The Birds of the Iberian Peninsula

Download or read book The Birds of the Iberian Peninsula written by Eduardo de Juana and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-26 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authoritative title is the definitive avifauna covering the Iberian Peninsula. The Iberian Peninsula is one of Europe's most ornithologically varied regions offering a host of regional specialities. It includes famous birding hotspots such as the Coto Donaña wetlands, mountainous areas such as the Picos de Europa and the Pyrenees, the Mediterranean cork and holm oak forests of the southwest, the migration crossroads of the Strait of Gibraltar and the steppe-like plains of Extremadura and Alentejo. Large numbers of birders from around Europe visit the region to see this wealth of winged wildlife, but to date there has been no comprehensive regional avifauna in English. Birds of the Iberian Peninsula is a national avifauna that fills this gap in the ornithological literature. Full-colour throughout, the book begins with authoritative introductory chapters covering subjects such as geography, climate, habitats, the history of Iberian ornithology and the composition of the avifauna. The species accounts then cover every species recorded in mainland Spain, the Balearic Islands, Portugal, Gibraltar and Andorra, including the many vagrants. For each species there is detailed treatment of distribution – with maps of breeding and wintering ranges – habitat selection, population trends, historical and current status, migration and conservation.
