Spanish Word Formation

Author: M. F. Lang
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135080763
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 285

Book Description
First published in 1990. Romance Philology and General Linguistics have followed sometimes converging sometimes diverging paths over the last century and a half. With the present series we wish to recognise and promote the mutual interaction of the two disciplines. The focus is deliberately wide, seeking to encompass not only work in the phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax and lexis of the Romance languages, but also studies in the history of Romance linguistics and linguistic thought in the Romance cultural area. Some of the volumes will be devoted to particular aspects of individual languages, some will be comparative in nature; some will adopt a synchronic and some a diachronic slant; some will concentrate on linguistic structures and some will investigate the sociocultural dimensions of language and language use in the Romance-speaking territories. As a branch of linguistic science, word formation is concerned with analysing and understanding the mechanisms by which the lexis is created and renewed.

Compound Words in Spanish

Author: María Irene Moyna
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027287139
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 480

Book Description
This is the first book devoted entirely to the history of compound words in Spanish. Based on data obtained from Spanish dictionaries and databases of the past thousand years, it documents the evolution of the major compounding patterns of the language. It analyzes the structural, semantic, and orthographic features of each compound type, and also provides a description of its Latin antecedents, early attestations, and relative frequency and productivity over the centuries. The combination of qualitative and quantitative data shows that although most compound types have survived, they have undergone changes in word order and relative frequency. Moreover, the book shows that the evolution of compounding in Spanish may be accounted for by processes of language acquisition in children. This book, which includes all the data in chronological and alphabetical order, will be a valuable resource for morphologists, Romance linguists, and historical linguists more generally.

Made in Puerto Rico

Author: Hugo R. Viera-Vargas
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 104012657X
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 228

Book Description
Made in Puerto Rico: Studies in Popular Music serves as a comprehensive introduction to the history, culture, and musicology of 20th and 21st century popular music in Puerto Rico. The essays in this volume, written by both local experts and leading scholars, contextualize under-researched areas of Puerto Rican popular music-making in relation to ideologies, aesthetics, and symbolism, and propose new ways of thinking about Puerto Rican musical cultures. A groundbreaking introduction to Puerto Rican musical culture, the volume covers the major figures, styles, and social contexts of popular music in Puerto Rico, while also going beyond conventional narratives. Rather than simply providing histories of key genres, these insightful essays focus on the ways in which Puerto Rican musicians reimagine their distinctive musical language as it transmutes from local practices into global expressions. Offering both a survey of Puerto Rican popular music and pathways into deeper critical inquiry, Made in Puerto Rico is an essential resource for scholars and students of music and of Puerto Rican, Caribbean, Latin American, and African Diaspora Studies.

La Agujeta

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : es
Pages : 256

Book Description
Quisiera decirles algo sobre mí, sobre mi vida, desde luego solo cosas bonitas, pero no sería lo correcto, porque no creo que alguien pueda haber vivido solo cosas bellas y yo faltaría a la verdad. Viví una vida plena: sembré, cruce el Océano Atlántico y el Mar Caribe, pinte, parí dos hijos, con Ernesto Ugona, mi compañero y escribí, escribí, y escribí... Viaje por cada uno de los caminos y rincones de mis cuentos, aun de los más irreales, pero más, mucho más que eso... lo hice A MI MANERA. Lo poco de lo que me arrepentí, no es para mencionarlo. He perdido muchas cosas a lo largo de mi caminar, pero me enriquecí de muchas otras y así afronte y busque lo mejor... lo hice A MI MANERA. Ame mucho, reí mucho y llore mucho. Tuve mis fallas y derrotas y ahora al caer mis lágrimas, lo encuentro todo muy divertido, pensar y tal vez decir sin penas: no no, yo no; pues lo hice A MI MANERA. Con todo mi corazón les dedico mi segundo libro, donde les cuento a cada uno de ustedes en especial, todo, todo A MI MANERA.
