Alison Mills Newman’s innovative, genre-bending novel has long been out of print and impossible to find. A “fluently funky mix of standard and nonstandard English,” as the poet and scholar Harryette Mullen once put it, Francisco is the first-person account of a young actress and musician and her growing disillusionment with her success in Hollywood. Her wildly original and vivid voice chronicles a free-spirited life with her filmmaker lover, visiting friends and family up and down California, as well as her involvement in the 1970s Black Arts Movement. Love and friendship, long, meaningful conversations, parties and dancing—Francisco celebrates, as she improvises in the book, “the workings of a positive alive life that is good value, quality, carin, truth … the gift of art for the survival of the human heart.”

Descubre la inspiradora historia de un hombre que, contra todo pronóstico, cambió el rostro de la Iglesia Católica con su humildad, fortaleza y fe.Francisco: El primer papa latinoamericano te ofrece una mirada única a la vida de un líder que transformó la esperanza de millones.Este libro es una biografía fascinante de Jorge Mario Bergoglio, el hombre sencillo que pasó de recorrer las calles de Buenos Aires en metro a convertirse en el Papa Francisco, uno de los hombres más influyentes de nuestros tiempos. A través de estas páginas, comprenderás cómo su profundo compromiso con la oración y el servicio a los demás lo guió para enfrentar enormes desafíos en la Iglesia Católica, desde los escándalos eclesiásticos hasta la pérdida de confianza entre los fieles.Revive los momentos históricos que marcaron su trayectoria, como la inesperada renuncia de Benedicto XVI, un hecho sin precedentes en más de 600 años, y cómo Francisco asumió un papado cargado de responsabilidades, encontrando fuerza en los valores de sencillez y cercanía. Esta obra te llevará desde su valiente decisión de renunciar a una posible elección en 2005 hasta su proclamación como el primer papa latinoamericano. Más allá de los titulares, descubrirás al hombre de carne y hueso, al teólogo brillante, y al líder espiritual que no temía viajar en autobús ni acercarse al pueblo con un mensaje de reconciliación.¿Está la Iglesia viviendo un renacimiento? Francisco explora esta pregunta mientras ofrece un retrato íntimo y esperanzador de un papado que ha tocado el corazón de millones. Si buscas inspiración, fe y una historia que refleje el poder de la transformación y la humildad, este libro es justo lo que necesitas.FranciscoFirst Jesuit. First Latin American. And a new pope who chose as his first act a simple request: please pray for me.The recent resignation of Pope Benedict XVI took the world by surprise, and for good reason. More than 600 years had passed since a pope last left his post.Jorge Mario Bergoglio, now Pope Francis, is a man of prayer, a man of action and a humble man who has always promoted others over himself. In fact, it was Bergoglio who bowed out of the running in the papal election of 2005 to facilitate the rise of Benedict XVI.However, the new pope faces a Catholic Church in crisis—a church that has lost the media pull of John Paul II and is still hounded by pedophile scandals and the filtration of documents from former papal administrations. His first year may not be an easy one but neither this man nor the church itself has ever shied away from the challenges thrust upon them.Pope Francis is austere and simple but has vast theological training. He is a man of his time but one who also travels by subway and bus just like any other citizen. Tirelessly fighting poverty and marginalization, he is a beacon of hope for the poor, persecuted sectors of the church. Has a Catholic spring finally arrived after this very long winter?Francisco: El primer papa latinoamericano is the complete biography of a humble man who has suddenly become one of the most powerful and influential men on the planet.

Francisco. El ingenio o las delicias del campo, escrita por Anselmo Su rez y Romero, cuenta los amores de dos esclavos, Francisco y Dorotea. A continuaci n resumimos su argumento: Francisco, nacido en frica y tra do a Cuba, es un siervo d cil y obediente. Le pide permiso a su ama do a Dolores Mendiz bal para casarse con Dorotea. Sin embargo, do a Dolores se niega para favorecer los deseos de su hijo Ricardo, que quiere poseer a la esclava.Francisco deja encinta a Dorotea, forzando as sus aspiraciones matrimoniales.Entonces Do a Dolores, col rica ante tal acto de desobediencia, env a a Francisco a un ingenio azucarero. All sufre toda la dureza del trabajo esclavo, y destina a Dorotea a limpiar en casas de francesas.Ricardo, enamorado de Dorotea y constantemente rechazado, somete a Francisco a suplicios inhumanos en el ingenio. Hasta que Dorotea se entrega para salvar a su amante de una muerte cierta, que finalmente no consigue evitar.Francisco se ahorca. Dorotea tambi n fallece despu s de su regreso a La Habana.La novela Francisco fue la primera obra costumbrista que se atrevi a tocar el tema de la esclavitud y mostrarlo como una pr ctica abominable. Ello en un momento en que la mano de obra esclava constitu a parte esencial de la econom a cubana. La novela es relativamente breve, pero dram tica en extremo, dura y conmovedora. Tiene brillantes descripciones de la sociedad cubana, de La Habana y de los ingenios azucareros.La novela Francisco fue escrita en 1838 por impulso de Domingo del Monte, para ser entregada al delegado ingl s Richard Robert Madden. Este public un lbum antiesclavista en Londres con textos de varios escritos cubanos. La copia que llev Madden a Inglaterra se perdi . M s tarde, Su rez y Romero escribi un pr logo para su obra en Nueva York (1875) y su novela se public en 1880.El valor de esta obra no est en su trama sentimental. Es valiosa por la descripci n de la vida en los ingenios azucareros cubanos, las costumbres, cantos y ritos africanos.

Selected Poetry of Francisco de Quevedo

Selected Poetry of Francisco de Quevedo

Francisco de Quevedo

University of Chicago Press

Francisco de Quevedo (1580-1645), one of the greatest poets of the Spanish Golden Age, was the master of the baroque style known as 'conceptismo', a complex form of expression fueled by elaborate conceits and constant wordplay as well as ethical and philosophical concerns. Although scattered translations of his works have appeared in English, there is currently no comprehensive collection available that samples each of the genres in which Quevedo excelled - metaphysical and moral poetry, grave elegies and moving epitaphs, amorous sonnets and melancholic psalms, playful romances and profane burlesques. In this book, Christopher Johnson gathers together a generous selection of forty-six poems - in a bilingual Spanish-English format on facing pages - that highlights the range of Quevedo's technical expertise and themes. Johnson's ingenious solutions to rendering the difficult seventeenth-century Spanish into poetic English will be invaluable to students and scholars of European history, literature, and translation, as well as poetry lovers wishing to reacquaint themselves with an old master.
Francisco Varo's Glossary of the Mandarin Language
Western missionaries contributed largely to Chinese lexicography. Their involvement was basically a practical rather than a theoretical one. In order to preach and convert, it was necessary to speak Chinese. A missionary on post needed to learn at least two languages, the national Guanhua, the "language of the officials" or "Mandarin," and the local vernacular. The first lexicographical work by missionaries was a Portuguese-Chinese dictionary compiled in the late 1500s by Francisco Varo (1627-1687), a Spanish Dominican based in the province of Fujian, was legendary for his superb mastery in Mandarin. His Vocabulario de la Lengua Mandarina, a Spanish-Chinese dictionary, is made available to modern readers in the present study, which is based on two manuscripts held in Berlin and London. Volume 1 contains the text of Varo's glossary, with English translations offered for all Spanish glosses and Chinese characters added for all Chinese forms. Volume 2 includes a pinyin index to all Chinese forms in the text and a selective index to the English translations of the Chinese glosses. The Vocabulario is mainly devoted to the spoken language, but includes literary forms as well. Varo was also sensitive to other matters of usage, e.g., questions of style, new expressions coined by the missionaries, specific expressions in Chinese and in European culture, Chinese customs and beliefs, and aspects of grammar. The Vocabulario is recommended for readers interested in Chinese linguistics, lexicography, Sino-Western cultural relations and the history of Christianity in China.
