The Spanish Ballad in English
This study offers an introduction to an important branch of Spanish literature—the romance, or ballad. Although a great many of these poems have been translated into English by various authors, they are not generally known nor easily accessible. Collected here for the first time in a single volume is a broad and representative sampling of romances in translation that encompasses historical ballads (including those about Spain's greatest folk hero, el Cid), Moorish ballads, and ballads of chivalry, love, and adventure. For the collection, Shasta M. Bryant has written a perceptive commentary and critique in which he discusses the individual poems and compares the translation with the original; both texts are presented to facilitate comparison. For those who wish to pursue their reading further there is an index of romances that have been translated into English, along with the names of the translators. Although the text has been written with the non-specialist in mind, this book will be equally valuable for students of comparative literature and of medieval Spain.
Austenite Formation and Decomposition
These proceedings compile papers from an international symposium sponsored by the ISS Product Physical Metallurgy and TMS Phase Transformations committees. These papers bring together academic and industrial experts in austenite formation and decomposition to present the field’s latest developments and cover such areas as advances in the understanding of the mechanistic, diffusional, and thermodynamic aspects of austenite formation and decomposition, as well as the ability to measure, characterize, and model these phenomena. Topics include: Effects of processing on austenite formation or decomposition Computational modeling Analytical methods for measurement of austenite formation and decomposition Characterization of microstructures Metallurgists in the field of ferrous metallurgy in both academia and industry, as well as metallurgists working in the area of phase transformations fundamentals, will find this book to be a valuable reference.

Why Poetry
An impassioned call for a return to reading poetry and an incisive argument for poetry’s accessibility to all readers, by critically acclaimed poet Matthew Zapruder In Why Poetry, award-winning poet Matthew Zapruder takes on what it is that poetry—and poetry alone—can do. Zapruder argues that the way we have been taught to read poetry is the very thing that prevents us from enjoying it. In lively, lilting prose, he shows us how that misunderstanding interferes with our direct experience of poetry and creates the sense of confusion or inadequacy that many of us feel when faced with it. Zapruder explores what poems are, and how we can read them, so that we can, as Whitman wrote, “posse...
