The Basque Dialect of Lekeitio
Author: José Ignacio Hualde
Publisher: Universidad del Pais Vasco
ISBN:
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
This book is a study of the Basque variety spoken in Lekeitio (Vizcaya). As such we have intended to make a direct contribution to Basque dialectology, aiming at setting certain standards for research in this area. In addition, we believe that some of the materials assembled in this work will be of interest to a larger audience beyond Basque specialists. It is for this reason that we decided to write the present book in English. In our opinion, certain linguistic aspects are treated in more detail here than in any previous work on any other Basque variety. A case in point would be accentuation, both at the lexical level and in its relation to the syntactic process of focalization.

Selected Poems / PoesÕa Selecta
Author: Luis Pal?s Matos
Publisher: Arte Publico Press
ISBN: 9781611922790
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
Although today Luis Palés Matos is virtually unknown to most American readers, the eminent U.S. poet and writer William Carlos Williams once praised his younger contemporary as "one of the most important poets out of Latin America." Palés Matos was a native, and lifelong resident, of Puerto Rico. Though he was not black, he became one of the Caribbeans leading advocates of poesía negra (black poetry). His landmark 1937 collection Tuntún de Pasa y Grifería: Poesía Afro-Antillana (Tom-Tom of Kinky Hair and Black Things: Afro-Caribbean Poetry) joyously celebrated the African aspects and sources of Puerto Ricos culture and influenced later generations of writers throughout the Western hemisphere. Translator Julio Marzán has selected the best of Palés Matoss poems from throughout his career, among them "Prelude in Boricua," "Danza Negra," "Buccaneer Winds," and "Elegy on the Duke of Marmalade." He also provides a helpful glossary of obscure terms and an introduction that locates Palés Matos in the broader cultural context of his contemporaries and poetic influences including such North American poets as Walt Whitman, Edgar Allan Poe, and Vachel Lindsay.

Historical Disaster Experiences
Author: Gerrit Jasper Schenk
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319491636
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 430
Book Description
Historical disaster research is still a young field. This book discusses the experiences of natural disasters in different cultures, from Europe across the Near East to Asia. It focuses on the pre-industrial era and on the question of similarities, differences and transcultural dynamics in the cultural handling of natural disasters. Which long-lasting cultural patterns of perception, interpretation and handling of disasters can be determined? Have specific types of disasters changed the affected societies? What have people learned from disasters and what not? What adaptation and coping strategies existed? Which natural, societal and economic parameters play a part? The book not only reveals the historical depth of present practices, but also reveals possible comparisons that show globalization processes, entanglements and exchanges of ideas and practices in pre-modern times.

Minions: The Junior Novel
Author: Sadie Chesterfield
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
ISBN: 0316299790
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 99
Book Description
The story of Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment's Minions begins at the dawn of time. Starting as single-celled yellow organisms, Minions evolve through the ages, perpetually serving the most despicable of masters. Continuously unsuccessful at keeping these masters-from T. rex to Napoleon-the Minions find themselves without someone to serve and fall into a deep depression. But one Minion named Kevin has a plan, and he-alongside teenage rebel Stuart and lovable little Bob-ventures out into the world to find a new evil boss for his brethren to follow. The trio embarks upon a thrilling journey that ultimately leads them to their next potential master, Scarlet Overkill (Academy Award® winner Sandra Bullock), the world's first-ever female super-villain. They travel from frigid Antarctica to 1960s New York City, ending in mod London, where they must face their biggest challenge to date: saving all of Minionkind...from annihilation. Featuring a soundtrack of hit music from the '60s that still permeates our culture today, Minions is produced by Illumination's Chris Meledandri and Janet Healy, and is directed by Pierre Coffin and Kyle Balda. Brian Lynch has written the screenplay for the 3D-CG comedy adventure, and Chris Renaud serves as executive producer of the film. A retelling of the new feature film!

Fugue for a New Life
Author: Dinah Berland
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 41
Book Description
Winner of the 2019 WaterSedge Poetry Chapbook Contest Textured with musical reference and rich imagery, Fugue for a New Life is skillfully rendered into a series centered on the archetypical story of loss and self-discovery with travel woven in as part of the quest for a new life. The intelligent and wide-ranging voice of these poems portrays intimate scenes against the backdrop of the infinite. In her final poem, Berland arrives, after a final litany of the possible, at a wise and brilliant conclusion, "that everything came / from the same infinitesimal seed," thus "proving" our inevitable connection to each other. --Tami Haaland, author of What Does Not Return "The rhythmic river of imagery that flows through Fugue for a New Life immerses readers in a world so vivid, I often found my body pulsing with the electricity of life's diverse expression, which these poems reveal, and could hardly catch my breath. Dinah Berland's poetry is just that compelling, that good. There is a discerning and fearless passion here, a native and nuanced music of what it means to give oneself wholly to the life one's been given--even during times of great sorrow or loss--matched by a spiritual vision that brings repair, for this is a poet who means to see things through, and never back away. Above all, perhaps, this is the true signature of Berland's human genius and poetic gift." --Peter Levitt, author of One Hundred Butterflies
