Spanish and Latin American Filmmakers
This thorough account of the life and films of the Spanish-Basque filmmaker Julio Medem is the first book in English on the internationally renowned writer-director of Vacas, La ardilla roja (Red Squirrel), Tierra, Los amantes del Círculo Polar (Lovers of the Arctic Circle), Lucía y el sexo (Sex and Lucía), La pelota vasca: la piel contra la piedra (Basque Ball) and Caótica Ana (Chaotic Ana), Initial chapters explore Medem's childhood, adolescence and education and examine his earliest short films and critical writings against a background of a dramatically changing Spain. Later chapters provide accounts of the genesis, production and release of Medem's challenging and sensual films, which feed into complex but lucid analyses of their meanings, both political and personal, in which Stone draws on traditions and innovations in Basque art, Spanish cinema and European philosophy to create a complete and provocative portrait of Medem and his work.
The Poll Taxes of 1377, 1379, and 1381: Part 1: Bedfordshire-Leicestershire
The English poll taxes of 1377, 1379, and 1381 taxed householders, wives, dependants, and servants individually. The tax records therefore provide information about people who are rarely, if ever, mentioned in other documents - frequently including details of occupations and relationships. The widely varying documents associated with the taxes are being published in three volumes, to make this massive resource accessible to social and economic historians, demographers, and genealogists. This first volume, which covers all three taxes for Bedfordshire to Leicestershire, includes extensive editorial descriptions of the documents, explanations of the collection and recording processes, and a discussion of the relevance and value of this exciting material. Full indexes of original and contemporary place names and a glossary of occupations will appear in the third volume.

Mas para isso devem abdicar de seus preconceitos e se sujeitar aos inúmeros testes de lealdade, promovidos por um homem que se esconde nas sombras e guarda segredos que podem mudar o rumo de suas vidas.

Multilingualism in the Andes
This illuminating book critically examines multicultural language politics and policymaking in the Andean-Amazonian countries of Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia, demonstrating how issues of language and power throw light on the relationship between Indigenous peoples and the state.

Love Story
Destino. O que significa o conceito destino? Se procurarmos no dicionário encontraríamos, de maneira resumida, que é o rumo que a vida de todas as pessoas e todas as coisas do mundo estaria sujeitas, o rumo que a vida delas tomaria. Mas existe a forma mais filosófica de explicar o que é o conceito de destino, a filosofia descreve o destino como uma força misteriosa, forte e sobrenatural que o universo tem de determinar a nossa história de vida. Há quem não acredite em destino, há quem confie cegamente, e há aqueles, também, que acreditam sim em destino, mas que ele é capaz de moldá-lo. Quanto a mim? Bem, prefiro não dizer nada para que tirem suas próprias conclusões.
