Dido, reina de Cartago
Las tensiones políticas en la ciudad fenicia de Tiro determinan a su reina, Dido, a huir de la ciudad robando el tesoro de su templo. Durante mucho tiempo vagará con sus naves por el Mediterráneo sin que le permitan asentarse en ninguna parte. En este periplo vivirá aventuras y conocerá a gente extraordinaria que se sumará, de buen grado o por la fuerza, a su empresa. Finalmente, el rey Yarbas de Libia, aun a su pesar, le permitirá asentarse en sus costas, cediéndole el trozo de tierra que pudiera caber en una piel de toro. La reina Dido, con su extraordinario ingenio, sabrá conseguir la superficie necesaria y fundar Cartago. A la ciudad en construcción, pero ya floreciente, llegar...
De amor y guerra, antología de relatos
Colección benéfica de relatos a favor de la Fundación FIVAN. Innata es la Guerra y el Amor al ser humano, tanto como inherente es la dualidad en su propia condición de ser humano: no existe Bien sin Mal, ni Alma sin Cuerpo; ni Amor sin Odio ni Muerte sin Vida. Todos los extremos se enriquecen y generan los conflictos con los que los autores de este volumen nos tejen, cual Penélope, un manto de pasiones dispares y encontradas que aúnan esta especial dicotomía. Así nacen y se expresan, como un principio y como un fin, dieciocho magníficos relatos.

Socrates in 90 Minutes
“Each of these little books is witty and dramatic and creates a sense of time, place, and character....I cannot think of a better way to introduce oneself and one’s friends to Western civilization.”—Katherine A. Powers, Boston Globe. “Well-written, clear and informed, they have a breezy wit about them....I find them hard to stop reading.”—Richard Bernstein, New York Times. “Witty, illuminating, and blessedly concise.”—Jim Holt, Wall Street Journal. These brief and enlightening explorations of our greatest thinkers bring their ideas to life in entertaining and accessible fashion. Philosophical thought is deciphered and made comprehensive and interesting to almost everyone. Far from being a novelty, each book is a highly refined appraisal of the philosopher and his work, authoritative and clearly presented.
Teaching Translation from Spanish to English
While many professional translators believe the ability to translate is a gift that one either has or does not have, Allison Beeby Lonsdale questions this view. In her innovative book, Beeby Lonsdale demonstrates how teachers can guide their students by showing them how insights from communication theory, discourse analysis, pragmatics, and semiotics can illuminate the translation process. Using Spanish to English translation as her example, she presents the basic principles of translation through 29 teaching units, which are prefaced by objectives, tasks, and commentaries for the teacher, and through 48 task sheets, which show how to present the material to students. Published in English.
