Book Synopsis Living with a Dead Language by : Ann Patty
Download or read book Living with a Dead Language written by Ann Patty and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A delightful mix of grammar and growth, words and wonder.” – The Washington Post An entertaining exploration of the richness and relevance of the Latin language and literature, and an inspiring account of finding renewed purpose through learning something new and challenging After thirty-five years as a book editor in New York City, Ann Patty stopped working and moved to the country. Bored, aimless, and lost in the woods, she hoped to challenge her restless, word-loving brain by beginning a serious study of Latin at local colleges. As she begins to make sense of Latin grammar and syntax, her studies open unexpected windows into her own life. The louche poetry of Catullus calls up her early days in 1970s New York, Lucretius elucidates her intractable drivenness and her attraction to Buddhism, while Ovid’s verse conjures a delightful dimension to the flora and fauna that surround her. Women in Roman history, and an ancient tomb inscription give her new understanding and empathy for her tragic, long deceased mother. Finally, Virgil reconciles her to her new life—no longer an urban exile, but a rustic scholar, writer and teacher. Along the way, she meets an impassioned cast of characters: professors, students and classicists outside of academia who keep Latin very much alive. Written with humor, heart, and an infectious enthusiasm for words, Patty’s book is an object lesson in how learning and literature can transform the past and lead to an unexpected future.

Book Synopsis Latin Love Poetry by : Denise Eileen McCoskey
Download or read book Latin Love Poetry written by Denise Eileen McCoskey and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I hate and I love.' The Roman poet Catullus expressed the disorienting experience of being in love in a stark contradiction that has resonated across the centuries. While his description might seem to modern readers natural and spontaneous, it is actually a response planned with great care and artistry. It is that artistry, and the way in which Roman love poetry works, that this book explores. Focusing on Catullus and on the later genre of elegy - so-called for its metre, and a form of poetry practiced by Tibullus, Propertius and Ovid - Denise Eileen McCoskey and Zara Martirosova Torlone discuss the devices used by the major Roman love poets, as well as the literary and historical contexts that helped shape their work. Setting poets and their writings especially against the turbulent backdrop of the Augustan Age (31 BCE-14 CE), the book examines the origins of Latin elegy; highlights the poets' key themes; and traces their reception by later writers and readers.
Book Synopsis Greek and Latin Love by : Thea S. Thorsen
Download or read book Greek and Latin Love written by Thea S. Thorsen and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often claimed that the kind of love that is variously deemed 'romantic' or 'true' did not exist in antiquity. Yet, ancient literature abounds with stories that seem to adhere precisely to this kind of love. This volume focuses on such literature and the concepts of love it espouses. The volume differs from and challenges much existing classical scholarship which has traditionally privileged the theme of sex over love and prose-genres over those of poetry. By conversely focusing on love and poetry, the present volume freshly explores central poets in ancient literature, such Homer, Sappho, Terence, Catullus, Virgil, Horace and Ovid, alongside less canonized, such as the anonymous poet of The Lament for Bion, Philodemus and Sulpicia. The chapters, which are written by world-leading as well as younger scholars, reveal that Greek and Latin concepts of love seem interconnected, that such love is as relevant for hetero- as homoerotic couples, and that such ideas of love follow the mainstream of poetry throughout antiquity. In addition to the general reader interested in the history of love, this volume is relevant for students and scholars of the ancient world and the poetic tradition.

Book excerpt: Latin love elegy is one of the most important poetic genres in the Augustan era, also known as the golden age of Roman literature. This volume brings together leading scholars from Australia, Europe and North America to present and explore the Greek and Roman backdrop for Latin love elegy, the individual Latin love elegists (both the canonical and the non-canonical), their poems and influence on writers in later times. The book is designed as an accessible introduction for the general reader interested in Latin love elegy and the history of love and lament in Western literature, as well as a collection of critically stimulating essays for students and scholars of Latin poetry and of the classical tradition.
Book Synopsis Latin Lovers by : Pablo G. Castaneda R.
Download or read book Latin Lovers written by Pablo G. Castaneda R. and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2005-11 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many times have you heard the term "Latin Lover?" What images does it bring to mind? If you're like most, you're imagining heated, lusty affairs and romantic, one-night stands. Latin Lovers: Do We Really Exist?, written by Pablo Castañeda, a native Guatemalan, redefines the Latin Lover as one having far more depth than today's society would lead you to believe. Castañeda argues that the Latin heart is fueled by a much stronger passion that longs to greet each second of life with love and enthusiasm. Pablo believes that women have intrinsic value and that men are truly blessed when they simply follow their hearts and love the woman in their life. He insists that through the years, his contact with women all over the world has both inspired him to be a better man and prepared him to be a better husband. He believes that each love relationship has its own magic, its own mystery, and its own story to tell. He shares the relationships he has cultivated with women and the invaluable lessons he's gleaned from each romance. Pablo relates how his God given passion for life is rooted in his Latin culture. He recounts how his family, music, dancing, and coffee have all played a huge role in shaping him into the man he is today. He shares how the change God brought about in his life has shown him the importance of dedicating time to get to know his heart. In conclusion, Pablo discloses the only way of becoming a real "Latin Lover". He implores you to join him in his journey and in so doing, perhaps find some answers in your own life.

Book Synopsis Intersectional Perspectives on LGBTQ+ Issues in Modern Language Teaching and Learning by : Joshua M. Paiz
Download or read book Intersectional Perspectives on LGBTQ+ Issues in Modern Language Teaching and Learning written by Joshua M. Paiz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book examines how sexuality and sexual identity intersect and interact with other identities and subjectivities – including but not limited to race, religion, gender, social class, ableness, and immigrant or refugee status – to form reinforcing webs of privilege and oppression that can have significant implications for language teaching and learning processes. The authors explore how these intersections may influence the teaching of different languages and how pedagogies can be devised to increase equitable access to language learning spaces. They seek to open the conversation on intersectional issues as they relate to sexuality and language teaching and learning, and provide a conversational space where readers can engage with the notion of intersectionality. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of applied linguistics and language education, gender and LGBTQ+ studies, and sociolinguistics, outlining possible future directions for intersectional research.
Book Synopsis The Tango in the United States by : Carlos G. Groppa
Download or read book The Tango in the United States written by Carlos G. Groppa and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the earliest years of the 20th century, North American ballroom dancers favored the waltz or the polka. But then a new dance, the tango, broke onto the scene when Vernon and Irene Castle performed it in a Broadway musical. Rudolph Valentino, Arthur Murray, and Xavier Cugat popularized it in the 1920s and 1930s, and thousands of people crowded onto dance floors around the country to hear the music and dance the tango. This work chronicles the history of the tango in the United States, from its antecedents in Argentina, Paris and London to the present day. It covers the dancers, musicians, and composers, and the tango's influence on American music.
