Alonso Yáñez es el tipo de soldado que todos quieren ser. Tras luchar en los tercios de Flandes, se ha ganado la reputación de ser el mejor espadachín de Toledo, y sus andanzas y buenas maneras llaman la atención del valido del rey Felipe IV, el conde duque de Olivares. Pronto éste le encomendará su primera misión: la protección de uno de sus consejeros. Y no será la última. Ya desde las entretelas del ambiente cortesano, en un mundo de apariencias, donde las intenciones reales suelen estar ocultas y los peligros acechan sin cesar, Alonso se verá abocado a sucesivas aventuras, en las que no faltarán acusaciones de traición, misiones secretas, peligros varios... y amor. Novela de aventura de corte clásico, con intrigas palaciegas, lances amorosos y disputas apasionadas, El sueño de la espada nos presenta un siglo XVII que creemos conocer pero todavía hoy nos sorprende. Gracias a una prosa templada pero que emana frescura y agilidad, Manuel Sánchez nos adentra, desde el punto de vista del protagonista, que escribe sus andanzas, en una corte real donde nada es lo que parece y en unos lugares, Toledo, Madrid y Barcelona, y unos tiempos que todos hubiéramos querido conocer.

¿Qué sucedería si el mundo llega a una era en la cual la tecnología ha evolucionado tanto, que la humanidad es despojada de toda conciencia? Si la guerra estallara entre los países destruyendo cada vez más el único hogar que posee el ser humano, si el hombre abandona lo único inmortal que posee se convierte en un ser maldito. Los demonios escaparon del infierno gracias a la maldad que el ser humano había creado, los ángeles intentaron intervenir pero tras siglos de interminable lucha se han extinto y han dejado al hombre solo en la guerra con el legado del conocimiento divino, que el ser humano no tardo en comprender, pues es su verdadera naturaleza. 600 años pasaron y el mundo lentamente regresa a su antiguo esplendor; los bosques regresan a cubrir las tierras, el agua se purifica nuevamente, la lluvia que una vez fue imbebible cae y trae esperanza a las alma de quienes encontraron una vida en las grandes ciudades estado, las capitales que fueron creadas por los arcángeles. La guerra es un arte que el hombre perfecciono durante milenios, ahora que se enfrenta en desventaja frente un enemigo ciego por la sed de sangre, la última esperanza se encuentra en una joven llamada Anna Loralieth, quien ha encontrado el camino que los guiara a la última pieza del enigma atrás de los ángeles. La espada creada por Uriel, la espada de la luz. Inicia una nueva cruzada para salvar a al mundo del señor de la oscuridad.

Sur written by John King and has been published by Cambridge University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1986-12-04 with Literary Criticism categories.
This book tells the story of Sur, Argentina's foremost literary and cultural journal of the twentieth century. Victoria Ocampo (its founder and lifelong editor) and Jorge Luis Borges (a regular and influential contributor) feature prominently in the story, while the contributions of other major writers (including Eduardo Mallea, William Faulkner, André Breton, Virginia Woolf, Alfonso Reyes, Octavio Paz, Waldo Frank, Aldous Huxley and Graham Greene) are discussed. Politically speaking, Sur represented a certain brand of liberalism, a resistance to populism and mass culture, and an attachment to elitist values which offended against the more dominant phases of Argentine thought, from Peronism to the varied forms of nationalism, socialism and Marxism. Dr King examines the journal's roots, its development and its demise, relating it to other journals circulating at the time, and highlighting vital issues debated in its pages, such as Argentine attitudes towards fascism during the Second World War.

The diverse selections of Literature Hispanoamericana will enable students to have a more sustained exposure to major voices of Latin American literature than possible in anthologies built around fragments.

For almost thirty years, David Thomson’s Biographical Dictionary of Film has been not merely “the finest reference book ever written about movies” (Graham Fuller, Interview), not merely the “desert island book” of art critic David Sylvester, not merely “a great, crazy masterpiece” (Geoff Dyer, The Guardian), but also “fiendishly seductive” (Greil Marcus, Rolling Stone). This new edition updates the older entries and adds 30 new ones: Darren Aronofsky, Emmanuelle Beart, Jerry Bruckheimer, Larry Clark, Jennifer Connelly, Chris Cooper, Sofia Coppola, Alfonso Cuaron, Richard Curtis, Sir Richard Eyre, Sir Michael Gambon, Christopher Guest, Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, Spike Jonze, Wong Kar-Wai, Laura Linney, Tobey Maguire, Michael Moore, Samantha Morton, Mike Myers, Christopher Nolan, Dennis Price, Adam Sandler, Kevin Smith, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlize Theron, Larry Wachowski and Andy Wachowski, Lew Wasserman, Naomi Watts, and Ray Winstone. In all, the book includes more than 1300 entries, some of them just a pungent paragraph, some of them several thousand words long. In addition to the new “musts,” Thomson has added key figures from film history–lively anatomies of Graham Greene, Eddie Cantor, Pauline Kael, Abbott and Costello, Noël Coward, Hoagy Carmichael, Dorothy Gish, Rin Tin Tin, and more. Here is a great, rare book, one that encompasses the chaos of art, entertainment, money, vulgarity, and nonsense that we call the movies. Personal, opinionated, funny, daring, provocative, and passionate, it is the one book that every filmmaker and film buff must own. Time Out named it one of the ten best books of the 1990s. Gavin Lambert recognized it as “a work of imagination in its own right.” Now better than ever–a masterwork by the man playwright David Hare called “the most stimulating and thoughtful film critic now writing.”

The exciting historical novel by Howard Headworth takes us to the 1480s in Spain. For the Spaniards it is the dawn of the golden age of the country. For the moors of Al-Andalus in the south, it is the beginning of a bitter harvest. And Far west, a new world beckons..... Glorious descriptions of battles and conflicts, the horrors of the Spanish Inquisition, the tracing of historical events leading to the entrance of the Catholic monarchs in Granada in 1492, a panoply of characters, profiles of the traditions and skills of the Muslim peasants in Al-Andalus, and finally the first voyage of Christopher Columbus to the Indies, make this book a unique treasure. Howard Headworth lives in Almeria, Spain, for twenty years. He was born in Wales and studied geology at the university there and in London. He uses his great experience as a scientific director as well as his passion for the history of his adopted country in this historical novel.

One of the most significant differences between the New World's major areas of high culture is that Mesoamerica had no beasts of burden and wool, while the Andes had both. Four members of the camelid family--wild guanacos and vicunas, and domestic llamas and alpacas--were native to the Andes. South American peoples relied on these animals for meat and wool, and as beasts of burden to transport goods all over the Andes. In this book, Duccio Bonavia tackles major questions about these camelids, from their domestication to their distribution at the time of the Spanish conquest. One of Bonavia's hypotheses is that the arrival of the Europeans and their introduced Old World animals forced the Andean camelids away from the Pacific coast, creating the (mistaken) impression that camelids were exclusively high-altitude animals. Bonavia also addresses the diseases of camelids and their population density, suggesting that the original camelid populations suffered from a different type of mange than that introduced by the Europeans. This new mange, he believes, was one of the causes behind the great morbidity of camelids in Colonial times. In terms of domestication, while Bonavia believes that the major centers must have been the puna zone intermediate zones, he adds that the process should not be seen as restricted to a single environmental zone. Bonavia's landmark study of the South American camelids is now available for the first time in English. This new edition features an updated analysis and comprehensive bibliography. In the Spanish edition of this book, Bonavia lamented the fact that the zooarchaeological data from R. S. MacNeish's Ayacucho Project had yet to be published. In response, the Ayacucho's Project's faunal analysts, Elizabeth S. Wing and Kent V. Flannery, have added appendices on the Ayacucho results to this English edition. This book will be of broad interest to archaeologists, zoologists, social anthropologists, ethnohistorians, and a wide range of students.
