Ficciones

de Jorge Luis Borges

17,48€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <div>"Borges’s composed, carefully wrought, gnarled style is at once the means of his art and its object—his way of ordering and giving meaning to the bizarre and terrifying world he creates: it is a brilliant, burnished instrument, and it is quite adequate to the extreme demands his baroque imagination makes of it . . . . Absolutely and most vividly original."—Saturday Review The seventeen pieces in Ficciones demonstrate the gargantuan powers of imagination, intelligence, and style of one of the greatest writers of this or any other century. Borges sends us on a journey into a compelling, bizarre, and profoundly resonant realm; we enter the fearful sphere of Pascal’s abyss, the surreal and literal labyrinth of books, and the iconography of eternal return. More playful and approachable than the fictions themselves are Borges’s Prologues, brief elucidations that offer the uninitiated a passageway into the whirlwind of Borges’s genius and mirror the precision and potency of his intellect and inventiveness, his piercing irony, his skepticism, and his obsession with fantasy. To enter the worlds in Ficciones is to enter the mind of Jorge Luis Borges, wherein lies Heaven, Hell, and everything in between.</div>

 Basil finds himself in a strange new pot and meets our other chatty little plants. They think they know some stuff, but when it comes to animals, they know nothing. One wild assumption followed by another gets them into big trouble. Next time they may not be so lucky!This illustrated story is for bilingual children and Spanish language students with a basic or intermediate knowledge who want to study a dual language text in English and Spanish. The book has two sections. In the first part, the English and Spanish languages, which use everyday language of native speakers, are displayed together in short paragraphs. This makes it easyto compare the two languages. The second section is the story in Spanish only, so that those with an intermediate level can test their understanding. We hope you enjoy the story.Excerpt from the Story-The first thing in his life that Basil remembered was cold air. A little girl put Basil's pot down on the front door step.La primera cosa que Albahaca recordaba de su vida era el aire frío. Una niña posó el tiesto de Albahaca en el escalón de la puerta principal.Next to the front door he saw a big flowerpot. It was bright blue and on it was painted a picture of an orange cat."What a scary animal!" thought Basil.Al lado de la puerta, Albahaca vio una gran maceta. Era azul brillante y sobre ella había pintado un dibujo de un gato naranja.—¡Qué animal tan aterrador! —pensó Albahaca.

Conversos, Power And The Intermediate Groups In Golden Age Spain

~~3,96€~~ 3,56€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Most recent studies have revealed the existence of a huge social mobility in Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries, despite what had been believed according to the previous historiographical consensus. The archive research carried out by various specialists -and above all by Dr. Enrique Soria Mesa and his team- has been decisive in this discovery. Therefore, since the last two decades, the existence of a system based on great mobility has been established as a new historiographical paradigma. The newly discovered system, however, kept intact the appearance of eternity and statism that the current ideological order required to perpetuate itself. However, not all this social progression was aimed directly and quickly towards the achievement of the integration within the nobility. Quite often, under the mask of the aristocratic or noble appearances, impressive artisanal and mercantile activities were developed along extensive periods. Those activities were in fact closely related with the economic boost that for more than a century converted a large part of Spain -Andalusia among them- into a first-rate economic power. This book aims to rescue the history of a powerful intermediate category -formerly referred to as bourgeoisie-, that we have been detecting in our research in national and local archives for more than twenty years. Based on that evidence, we prefer to use here the term mesocracy since all these groups occupied intermediate spaces of power while they slowly tried to move upwards in the social ladder. A movement developed by resorting to long-term family strategies that created sagas of officials that ranged from middle municipal positions (jurados or jurors) to public notaries, also including merchants, artisans, doctors, and lawyers. In addition, in all these groups we noticed a very relevant presence of Jewish-converts -the conversos-, since it was there where the descendants of Hebrews settled professionally, thus achieving not only socioeconomic success but also definitive assimilation, despite the repressive effects of the Inquisition and the racist rejection of blood purity statutes. Therefore, the long term chronology, before and after the time under our scrutiny, in which we incardinate our study would be that: a fall from prominent power status in many cities of Castile in the 15th century for most of the Jews and conversos, followed by a slow recovery using a variety of means (such as institutional minor positions -like the jurors in the city councils-, professional associations -merchant guilds, for instance- or some relevant professions -doctors, notaries or prominent servants of the aristocracy-) in the 16th and 17th centuries, ending up in a period of blur and oblivion in the 18th century. We focus on the time corresponding to the Early Modern times, in which for many conversos the mesocratic stages seem to have performed as an acceptable, though discrete, solution. Nonetheless, we don’t want to give nothing for granted, so when posisble we will check the importance of the converso condition within the groups under study. All seven contributions are based on a great variety of primary sources; all together allow us to speak of a massive number of documents as the solid basis for the book’s claims.
