Download or read book Leyendas Del Mundo Hispano Pearson Etext Powered by Myspanishlab-- Access Card (Multi-Semester) written by Susan Bacon and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why legends and myths? These stories convey information, and describe both events and their consequences. They encourage readers and listeners to react on an intellectual level. Stories stimulate the imagination, triggering thoughts about the possible, as well as the actual. Since the earliest times, they have engaged listeners to imagine what it would be like to see the world through someone else's eyes. Legends spread ideas about the cultural products, practices and perspectives to guide behavior and understanding from one generation to the next. And, perhaps most importantly, everyone – whether five or fifty-five - loves a good story. We only have to look at the success of such modern folklore as Harry Potter to recognize that a fine story will engage readers and listeners of all ages.

Book excerpt: The culture, history, and spirit of the Hispanic Southwest are brought to readers through this fascinating collection of 45 cuentos (stories and legends) from the region.

A discussion of dichos (proverbs) and adivinanzas (riddles) illuminates the larger context of the oral tradition in which the tales have flourished.
