Emilio Langle y Joaquín Rodríguez: dos mercantilistas almerienses
Emilio Langle y Rubio (Almería,1886 - Granada,1967) y Joaquín Rodríguez Rodríguez (Alhama de Almería, 1910 - Mexico D.F., 1949) son dos de las grandes figuras del derecho mercantil español de este siglo, con un nexo común: su origen almeriense. Este libro nos hace descubrir la trayectoria científica y la aventura humana de dos mercantilistas universales, y nos sirve como hilo conductor para aproximarnos al Derecho mercantil, una de las ramas del Derecho español que más ha evolucionado en los últimos tiempos. Lo que empieza siendo una lectura desapasionada de lo que constituyó la trayectoria vital y científica de estos maestros del saber, va moviendo al lector, a medida que avanza en su lectura, a un impulso cada vez más apremiante por conocer las diversas fases por las que la vida y obra de aquellos transcurren hasta el momento final de sus existencias. La obra concluye con un recuerdo al también almeriense Miguel Motos Guirae, uno de los más destacados mercantilistas españoles de estos últimos años. Sólo lo cercano de su figura y la no coincidencia en el tiempo de magisterio con Langle y Rodríguez justifican el tratamiento diferenciado.

Mexican Americans and Sports
For at least a century, across the United States, Mexican American athletes have actively participated in community-based, interscholastic, and professional sports. The people of the ranchos and the barrios have used sport for recreation, leisure, and community bonding. Until now, though, relatively few historians have focused on the sports participation of Latinos, including the numerically preponderant Mexican Americans. This volume gathers an important collection of such studies, arranged in rough chronological order, spanning the period from the late 1920s through the present. They survey and analyze sporting experiences and organizations, as well as their impact on communal and individu...
The Cinema of Robert Rodriguez
Robert Rodriguez stands alone as the most successful U.S. Latino filmmaker today, whose work has single-handedly brought U.S. Latino filmmaking into the mainstream of twenty-first-century global cinema. Rodriguez is a prolific (eighteen films in twenty-one years) and all-encompassing filmmaker who has scripted, directed, shot, edited, and scored nearly all his films since his first breakout success, El Mariachi, in 1992. With new films constantly coming out and the launch of his El Rey Network television channel, he receives unceasing coverage in the entertainment media, but systematic scholarly study of Rodriguez’s films is only just beginning. The Cinema of Robert Rodriguez offers the fi...
