Words of the True Peoples/Palabras de los Seres Verdaderos
Author: Carlos MontemayorPublisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292744765
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
As part of the larger, ongoing movement throughout Latin America to reclaim non-Hispanic cultural heritages and identities, indigenous writers in Mexico are reappropriating the written word in their ancestral tongues and in Spanish. As a result, the long-marginalized, innermost feelings, needs, and worldviews of Mexico's ten to twenty million indigenous peoples are now being widely revealed to the Western societies with which these peoples coexist. To contribute to this process and serve as a bridge of intercultural communication and understanding, this groundbreaking, three-volume anthology gathers works by the leading generation of writers in thirteen Mexican indigenous languages: Nahuatl, Maya, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Tojolabal, Tabasco Chontal, Purepecha, Sierra Zapoteco, Isthmus Zapoteco, Mazateco, Ñahñu, Totonaco, and Huichol. Volume Three contains plays by six Mexican indigenous writers. Their plays appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Montemayor and Frischmann have abundantly annotated the Spanish, English, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that introduce the work of each playwright and discuss the role of theater within indigenous communities. These supporting materials make the anthology especially accessible and interesting for nonspecialist readers seeking a greater understanding of Mexico's indigenous peoples.

Héctor Azcárraga, un riguroso médico intensivista con apenas vida emocional, recibe una carta de Soledad, una mujer a quien no conoce. Es una invitación para comenzar un viaje por distintos rincones del mundo en los que descubrirá una historia que Soledad quiere contarle. A pesar de sus prejuicios, fruto de una educación rígida alejada de toda excentricidad, acepta la propuesta. En Costa Rica y en Venecia, Héctor se ve obligado a escuchar cómo dos desconocidos le acusan de vivir a oscuras. En París, su propio pasado da un sorprendente salto hasta el presente dejándole sin habla, pero en Buenos Aires, aturdido por la terrible noticia que un extraño pintor le espeta, abandona el juego huyendo de la aparente demencia de aquella mujer que se obstina en no dar la cara. Soledad juega su mayor baza llevándole a su casa de Madrid a un muchacho griego que pondrá las cartas sobre la mesa y quien finalmente le convencerá para que se enfrente a la verdad. Un último viaje en el que descubrirá, con una emoción jamás imaginada, de quién es la mano que le ha cuidado en la sombra para conseguir que Héctor sobreviva a lo gris y aprenda a observar los colores de su vida.

The Jubilee Bible
Author: Russell M. StendalPublisher: Ransom Press International
ISBN: 1647650569
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 3658
Book Description
Translated from the Original Texts in Hebrew and Greek into Spanish by Casiodoro de Reina (1569) and compared with the revision of Cipriano de Valera (1602). Based on the New Testament of Francisco de Enzinas (1543) and on the New Testament (1556) with the Psalms (1557) of Juan Pérez de Pineda. This material was translated from Spanish into English by Russell M. Stendal and compared with the Old English Translation of William Tyndale (Pentateuch of 1530, Ploughboy Edition New Testament of 1534, Joshua to 2 Chronicles of 1537, and Jonah). It was also compared word for word with the Authorized Version (by King James) of 1611. The word of our God shall stand for ever. (Isaiah 40:8) Why this Version? The Jubilee Bible (JUB) stands apart from most other English versions in print since the beginning of the last century. The usage and context tend to define each key word so you do not have to blindly rely on theological dictionaries or reference materials that may wittingly or unwittingly include any type of prejudice or bias. Careful attention in properly and consistently translating each key word, through the first usage and on through to the last occurrence, was made to avoid the use of synonyms. Then, as the word makes its way across the Old Testament and you make the correct match with the corresponding Greek word in the New Testament, an amazing pattern emerges. The Jubilee Bible is the only translation we know of that has made a serious attempt to mate each unique Hebrew word (and subsequently its Greek equivalent) with a unique English word (using the common English of William Tyndale and the extraordinary Hebrew scholarship of Casiodoro de Reina of the early Reformation) so that the use (and number of occurrences of each key word) sets forth the idea of what God means by each word as defined by the actual context in Scripture.

The Marrakesh Dialogues
Author: Carsten L. WilkePublisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004274022
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 574
Book Description
In sixteenth-century Marrakesh, a Flemish merchant converts to Judaism and takes his Catholic brother on a subversive reading of the Gospels and an exploration of the Jewish faith. Their vivid Spanish dialogue, composed by an anonym in 1583, has until now escaped scholarly attention in spite of its success in anti-Christian clandestine literature until the Enlightenment. Based on all nine available manuscripts, this critical edition rediscovers a pioneering work of Jewish self-expression in European languages. The introductory study identifies the author, Estêvão Dias, locates him in insurgent Antwerp at the beginning of the Western Sephardi diaspora, and describes his hybrid culture shaped by the Iberian Renaissance, Portuguese crypto-Judaism, Mediterranean Jewish learning, Protestant theology, and European diplomacy in Africa. "The Marrakesh Dialogues has been mentioned only rarely in the scholarly literature, and Wilke’s edition and extended discussion constitute the first attempt at editing the text based upon all the textual evidence, placing it into its historical context, identifying the author and the dramatis personae of the text, analysing the treatise’s contents, and presenting it to a wide audience. He is successful because of his broad knowledge of the political and religious trends in early modern Europe, coupled with close familiarity with converso life and literature." - Daniel L. Lasker, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, in: Journal of Jewish Studies Vol. LXVII No. 2, pp. 428-35
