Book Synopsis The Long Road to Salamanca by : Rod Fisher
Download or read book The Long Road to Salamanca written by Rod Fisher and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-07-11 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of Miguel Santos, the alter ego of Gil Blas. For the modern reader the rambling sentences and passive verbiage of the original novel can be daunting, especially in a book of 320,000 words written over a 20-year period. But the many trials and tribulations, the many adventures with swindlers and bandits, and the many romantic entanglements of the hero should not be shelf-bound by the archaic idiom of the enlightenment period. This adaptation is not a new translation. It is an abridged version of the original that has been ruthlessly slashed and edited; for that reason the title and hero have been renamed. It is a sugar-coated introduction to the classic which may inspire the reader to tackle the original.
Book Synopsis Waking the Hedgehog by : Mari Jose Olaziregi
Download or read book Waking the Hedgehog written by Mari Jose Olaziregi and published by Center for Basque Studies Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This analysis of the writings of Bernardo Atxaga is inspired by his image of the Basque language as a hedgehog that has "survived ... by withdrawing," but that has now emerged - preeminently in the work of this most international of Basque authors." "Following the trail of the hedgehog reveals the riches of contemporary Basque literature and Atxaga's central position in the Basque literary world. The book explores the enthusiastic global reception of Atxaga's fiction - in particular Obabakoak, which has been translated into twenty-six languages - but also his short stories, drama, poetry, and writings for children and young people. It focuses on the preeminence of the fantastic in Atxaga's work, the experimental style of his hybrid poetic texts, and the "heterotopias" of his realist novels."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once upon a time, the name Baghdad conjured up visions of the most magical, romantic city on earth, where flying carpets carried noble thieves off on wonderful adventures, and vicious viziers and beautiful princesses mingled with wily peasants and powerful genies. This is the world of the Arabian Nights, a magnificent collection of ancient tales from Arabia, India, and Persia. The tales—often stories within stories—are told by the sultana Scheherazade, who relates them as entertainments for her jealous and murderous husband, hoping to keep him amused and herself alive. Three fantastic tales have been chosen from our new translation to introduce readers to the delights of Arabian Nights: 'Ali Baba and the forty thieves killed by the slave girl' is a well-known and well-loved classic, placed alongside the equally enchanting 'Judar and his brothers' and 'Ma'rus the cobbler'.
