Manual de Lingüística Española
El Manual de linguistica espanola esta concebido como una obra que proporcione una visiongeneral, a la vez que suficientemente detallada, de la investigacion linguistica actual sobre el espanol. La obra incluye un conjunto de aportaciones dedicadas tanto a la diacronia del espanol como a la descripcion sincronica de la lengua en todas sus facetas. Igualmente incorpora capitulos sobre gramaticografia, lexicografia y sobre la adquisicion del espanol, tanto como lengua primera como segunda. En cada capitulo se busca seleccionar las cuestiones centrales del tema tratado para exponerlas con concision, pero sin renunciar a la profundidad y al rigor cientifico. Los autores son destacados especialistas de cada uno de los asuntos de que se ocupan y se ha procurado la mayor coordinacion entre ellos para que no se repitan contenidos y tampoco queden sin tratar aspectos importantes de la descripcion linguistica del espanol."
Lingüística Misionera
When the first European missionaries arrived on other continents, it was decided that the indigenous languages would be used as the means of christianization. There emerged the need to produce grammars and dictionaries of those languages. The study of this linguistic material has so far not received sufficient attention in the field of linguistic historiography. This volume is the first published collection of papers on missionary linguistics world-wide; it represents the insights of recent research, containing an introduction and papers on methodology, meta-historiography, the historical and cultural background. The book contains studies about early-modern linguistic works written in Spanish, Portuguese, English and French, describing among others indigenous languages from North America and Australia, Maya, Quechua, Xhosa, Japanese, Kapampangan, and Visaya. Topics dealt with include: innovations of individual missionaries in lexicography, grammatical analysis, phonology, morphology, or syntax; creativity in descriptive techniques; differences and/or similarities of works from different continents, and different religious backgrounds (Catholic or Protestant).
Support-verb constructions in the corpora of Greek
This volume brings together corpora that span more than 3,000 years of the history of the Greek language, from Ittzés' chapter on the proto-language to Giouli's chapter on the modern language. The authors take wider or narrower approaches with regard to the form and function of the type of construction that they include in the group of support-verb constructions: while all would agree that English to take initiative is a support-verb construction, opinions differ on English to take wing. The chapters reflect a fascinating diversity of approaches to support-verb constructions, including Natural Language Processing, Comparative Philology, New Testament Exegesis, Coptology, and General Linguistics. The volume is structured along the three interfaces that support-verb constructions sit on, the syntax-lexicon, the syntax-semantics, and the syntax-pragmatics interfaces. We finish with four concrete avenues for further research. Faced with the diversity of approaches and the magnitude of disagreements arising from them when working with as internally diverse a group of constructions as support-verb constructions, we strive for in varietate unitas.
A Companion to Mester de Clerecía Poetry
Mester de clerecía is the term traditionally used to designate the first generations of learned poetry in medieval Ibero-Romance dialects (the precursors of modern Castilian and other Romance languages of the Iberian Peninsula). In its time, this poetry was anything but traditional. These long poems of structured verse reappropriate the heroic past through the retelling of legends from Classical Antiquity, saints’ lives, miracle stories, Biblical apocrypha, and other tales. At the same time, the poems recast the place of their authors, and learned characters within their stories, in the shifting dynamics of their thirteenth and fourteenth century present. Contributors are Pablo Ancos, Maria Cristina Balestrini, Fernando Baños Vallejo, Andrew M. Beresford, Olivier Biaggini, Martha M. Daas, Emily C. Francomano, Ryan Giles, Michelle M. Hamilton, Anthony John Lappin, Clara Pascual-Argente, Connie L. Scarborough, Donald W. Wood, and Carina Zubillaga.
Body, Subject & Subjected
Hominids have always been obsessed with representing their own bodies. The first "selfies" were prehistoric negative hand images and human stick figures, followed by stone and ceramic representations of the human figure. Thousands of years later, moving via historic art and literature to contemporary social media, the contemporary term "selfie" was self-generated. The book illuminates some "selfies". This collection of critical essays about the fixation on the human self addresses a multi-faceted geographic set of cultures -- the Iberian Peninsula to pre-Columbian America and Hispanic America -- analysing such representations from medical, literal and metaphorical perspectives over centuries...
GUÍA PARA LA CLASE DE ESPAÑOL CON FINES ESPECÍFICOS: ARTE Y HUMANIDADES
Ana Blanco Gadañón Universidad Nebrija El interés por el español es creciente, según se viene recogiendo en los informes anuales emitidos por el Instituto Cervantes respecto a las cifras del español; en particular, en relación con su aprendizaje como segunda lengua, en 2021, ya se superaron los 24 millones de estudiantes de español (El español: una lengua viva, Instituto Cervantes, 2021). Por otro lado, la demanda de cursos de español con fines específicos (EFE), además de la de los generales, es cada vez más significativa en los distintos centros y modalidades de enseñanza. Su reflejo más inmediato es la oferta editorial de la que dispone el alumnado de EFE: a ...
Bibliographie Linguistique de L'annee 1999
Setting out the historical national and religious characteristics of the Italians as they impact on the integration within the European Union, this study makes note of the two characteristics that have an adverse effect on Italian national identity: cleavages between north and south and the dominant role of family. It discusses how for Italians family loyalty is stronger than any other allegiance, including feelings towards their country, their nation, or the EU. Due to such subnational allegiances and values, this book notes that Italian civic society is weaker and engagement at the grass roots is less robust than one finds in other democracies, leaving politics in Italy largely in the hands of political parties. The work concludes by noting that EU membership, however, provides no magic bullet for Italy: it cannot change internal cleavages, the Italian worldview, and family values or the country’s mafia-dominated power matrix, and as a result, the underlying absence of fidelity to a shared polity—Italian or European—leave the country as ungovernable as ever.
