Research on Spanish in the United States

Sinopsis del Libro

Research on Spanish in the United States is intended for use in courses, as well as by scholars and researchers interested in the area. The 29 original articles are organized into sections on interpreting; historical perspectives; borrowings of words and phrases; codeswitching, narratives, and discourse; sociolinguistics and pragmatics; phonology, morphology, and syntax; and language attitudes and planning. Many of the chapters focus on regional aspects of Spanish in the US, ranging from sociolinguistic issues among Dominicans in New York and Cubans in Miami to the adoption and adaptation of forms from Nahuatl and English in the southwestern US. Other chapters discuss the outlook for the growing population of Spanish speakers in many areas of the United States, particularly in bilingual education and other public policy questions. The book includes an introduction to the volume by Ana Roca and a history of US Spanish research by John M. Lipski.

Questo primo volume si focalizza per tale ragione su Roma, sul funzionamento dell’organismo deputato alla valutazione delle nuove figure di cui si chiedeva la canonizzazione. I processi di beatificazione e di...

Los montes son tuyos

Los montes son tuyos reúne dos piezas del director de escena, dramaturgo y performer Alberto Cortés: El Ardor (2021) y One night at the golden bar (2022). En palabras de Rodrigo García Marina, autor del epílogo: «En el teatro de Alberto Cortés no aparecen animales drogados o muertos, nadie se hiere gratuitamente, los efectos especiales de la sangre y los fluidos son innecesarios. No está pensado para un presupuesto millonario, ni participan mártires, ni citas descontextualizadas de Beckett o algún gran filósofo. [...] La dramaturgia de Alberto en efecto es un lugar común porque...
