Las lenguas de las Américas - the Languages of the Americas
Las lenguas de las Américas - the Languages of the Americas takes the reader on a journey through twenty chapters addressing the languages of the Americas all the way from Canada and the USA to Argentina and Brazil. The authors are international experts who have written mainly in Spanish and English, but in a few cases also in French, Portuguese and German. The book deals with the languages of the descendants of the first Americans; it gives an insight into the American varieties of English, French, Portuguese and Spanish; it explores the outcome of the long-lasting coexistence of various autochthonous and European languages; it also looks into some very specific hybrid forms of locally or regionally unique varieties in the Americas, focusing on creolization, code-switching and translanguaging resulting from language contact. The languages and linguistic varieties dealt with in this book are numerous and so are the approaches and methods applied; most are mainly synchronic, but some are also diachronic. All in all, the book has managed to draw a succinct and representative portrait of the multifaceted linguistic landscapes of the Americas.
Jardim de inverno
Expulsos da França, depois de dois anos de exÃlio em Paris, Zélia Gattai e Jorge Amado são obrigados a se mudar para a Tchecoslováquia. Jardim de inverno narra os anos de desassossego e aflição, mas também de descobertas intensas, vividos pelo casal entre 1949 e 1952. Grandes paixões se fazem, também, de experiências dolorosas. Jardim de inverno, livro que Zélia Gattai publicou em 1988, reúne parte dos momentos que ela e Jorge Amado viveram nos anos de exÃlio europeu. Refugiados na Tchecoslováquia, no Castelo dos Escritores, em Dobris, os dois viveram, apesar da angústia e da saudade, momentos inesquecÃveis, como a viagem no célebre Transiberiano que os levou à China, na Ã...
Revisioning Italy
More than any other nation, Italy -- from its imperial past to its subordinate present, from its colonial forays to its splendid isolation -- embodies the myriad and contradictory historical forms of nationhood. This volume covers a range of subjects drawn from Italy and abroad to study Italian national identity. Whether considering opera or Ninja Turtles, the essays reveal how cultural identity is constructed and manipulated -- an issue made urgent by the influx of African, Indochinese, and Eastern European immigrants into Italy today. Topics include exile, nationalism, and imagined communities, Italy's colonial "unconscious", and Mussolini's adventures in North Africa.
