Download or read book Spanish English Codeswitching in a Written Corpus written by Laura Callahan and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish/English codeswitching in published work represents a claim to the right to participate in the marketplace on a bilingual and not just monolingual basis. This book offers a syntactic and sociolinguistic analysis of the codeswitching in a corpus of thirty texts: novels and short stories published in the United States by twenty-four authors between 1970-2000. An application of the Matrix Language Frame model shows that written codeswitching follows for the most part the same syntactic patterns as its spoken counterpart. The reasons why some written codeswitching is considered to be artificial or inauthentic are examined. An overview of written codeswitching research is given, including titles of many texts in addition to the corpus that contain codeswitching between diverse languages. The book concludes with a look at how codeswitching is used by writers to attain their objectives, and what the implications may be for the relative positions of Spanish, English, and Spanish/English codeswitching in the United States.

Download or read book Escritura de Nuu Dzaui written by Maarten Evert Reinoud Gerard Nicolaas Jansen and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the development of writing in the region of Ñuu Dzaui (the Mixtec people in Southern Mexico) from its earliest manifestations up to the present. Specialist essays (mostly in English, some in Spanish) present new archeological data, contribute to the decipherment of precolonial pictorial manuscripts, and analyze historical documents written in Mesoamerican languages during the colonial period. From this diachronic perspective much attention is given to the changing social contexts as well as to methodological and interpretive issues. In addition, contemporary projects are discussed, which register oral tradition, create space for native languages within the national school system, and produce new poetic works. The inclusion of two Mixtec documentary films on a inserted dvd provokes important comments on the representation of indigenous American cultures in general.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you're looking for a captivating collection of Aztec myths then keep reading... The Aztecs believed that offerings of human blood and human lives were necessary to the continued running of the universe. Indeed, in Aztec myths the gods themselves make sacrifices of their own blood and even of their entire bodies in order to create a universe humans can live in and, in one story, to create humans themselves; humans therefore must make blood sacrifices in turn to feed the gods and to keep the universe in existence. To the ancient Aztecs, these practices seemed fitting, necessary, and honorable, helping to connect the world of humans to the divine world of the gods, a universe that in Aztec myth took shape in cycles of creation, destruction, and rebirth. Aztec Mythology: Captivating Aztec Myths of Gods, Goddesses, and Legendary Creatures invites you to go on a startling journey to discover stories such as: The Legend of the Suns The Deeds of Mixcoatl The Origin of Maize and the Creation of Pulque The Fall of Xochiquetzal The Fate of Souls Huitzilopochtli and the Founding of Tenochtitlan Huemac Plays the Ball Game And many more!
