Actas del IX Congreso Internacional de Historia de la Lengua
La conmemoración del Bicentenario de la Constitución de 1812 en Cádiz fue un punto de reencuentro entre España e Iberoamérica, y la raíz inexcusable de ese reencuentro fue el idioma español. No hubo actividad intelectual que no fuera compartida por esas dos regiones del mundo en esta lengua. Recordar todo ello pareció particularmente oportuno en un momento en el que, no solo se celebraba el Bicentenario de la Constitución gaditana, sino también la puesta en marcha de los procesos de independencia de los países americanos, que, en momentos clave de la historia, han sido el más sólido baluarte de la lengua común.

The Joy Luck Club
Discover Amy Tan's moving and poignant tale of immigrant Chinese mothers and their American-born daughters. 'The Joy Luck Club is an ambitious saga that's impossible to read without wanting to call your Mum' Stylist In 1949 four Chinese women, recent immigrants to San Francisco, meet weekly to play mahjong and tell stories of what they left behind in China. United in loss and new hope for their daughters' futures, they call themselves the Joy Luck Club. Their daughters, who have never heard these stories, think their mothers' advice is irrelevant to their modern American lives - until their own inner crises reveal how much they've unknowingly inherited of their mothers' pasts.

Modernist Eroticisms
This volume explores the impact of sexological and early psychoanalytic conceptions of sexual perversion on the representation of the erotic in the work of a range of major European modernists (including Joyce, Kafka, Lawrence, Mann, Proust and Rilke) as well as in that of some less-well-known figures of the period such as Dujardin and Jahnn.
Shakespeare Re-dressed
"This collection covers a wide range of Shakespeare productions, from Granville Barker and Poel's experiments with cross-gender casting to recent performances by Cheek by Jowl, the National Theatre, and the new Globe; from early twentieth-century performances by women's companies in England and Japan to contemporary stagings by the Los Angeles Women's Shakespeare Company; from Mabou Mines' controversial Lear in New York to a more subtly transgressive Tempest by the Georgia Shakespeare Festival." "These essays are comprehensive in their consideration of cross-gender-cast Shakespeare as it evolved over the past century. Theoretically informed yet grounded in the particularity of individual performances, they forge new connections between performance studies and gender theory and broach issues vital to anyone interested in Shakespeare."--BOOK JACKET.
