Cuba in Pictures

This photo book shows the pictures of the places of interest and other major tourist attractions in Cienfuegos in Cienfuegos Province, and Trinidad and Guanayara National Park in Sancti Spiritus Province.Brief information and history of Cienfuegos and Trinidad, and some background information about Guanayara National Park, were also provided to help readers appreciate the context of the pictures.

Hence, it is hoped that it would provide a good visual representation of the conditions of the tou...

... und bricht das Herz die Einsamkeit?

Francisco Cienfuegos versteht sich als Poet und betrachtet die Welt als solcher: fragend, staunend, suchend. Doch das ehemalige Gastarbeiterkind aus Spanien liefert hier viel mehr als nur ein Lyrikbuch. Er widmet sich einem grundlegenden Gefühl unserer schnelllebigen Gesellschaft: der Einsamkeit, in all ihren Facetten. Das Sein, die Heimat, die Fremde und die Liebe. Der Mensch, der sein Herz trägt – vom Atlantischen Ozean bis nach Offenbach am Main und noch viel weiter. Wo gehört ein Mensch hin? Wo sind seine Wurzeln und wie weit darf er sich ausbreiten? In welcher Farbe umhüllt einen die Einsamkeit, die keine Grenzen kennt? Francisco Cienfuegos' melodisch-melancholische Gedichte zeichnen in den 110 Seiten des Lyrikbuches Wege, Straßen und Alleen. Ausgänge aus der Einsamkeit. Seine Wörter klingen mal wie Flamenco, mal wie moderner Rock-Andaluza – Rhythmen, die berühren. Wenn das Alleinsein überhandnimmt. Mitten im Leben.

The capstone of a research endeavor begun by Barbara Stein and Stanley Stein nearly sixty years ago, this volume concludes their masterful tetralogy on Spanish economic and Atlantic history. With a compelling narrative that weaves together story and thesis and brings to life immense archival research and empirical data, Crisis in an Atlantic Empire is a finely grained historical tour of the period covering 1808 to 1810, which is often called “the age of revolutions.” The study examines an accumulation of countervailing elements in a spasm of imperial crisis, as Spain and its major colony New Spain struggled to preserve traditional structures of exchange—Spain's transatlantic trade syst...
