Описание: A mixed infantry formation made up of about 3,000 men armed with pikes, swords and handguns, the innovative and influential tercio or 'Spanish square' was the basic combat unit of the armies of Spain throughout much of the 16th and 17th centuries. Arguably the first permanent tactical formation seen in Europe since the Roman cohort, the tercio was the forerunner of modern formations such as the battalion and regiment. The variety of different weapons fielded in the tercio meant the Spanish infantry could resist opposing cavalry forces while overcoming every kind of enemy infantry deployed against them.

Featuring full-colour artwork and photographs of rare items held at the Spanish Army Museum, this study covers the whole period during which the tercios were active, opening with the third Italian war between the forces of France and the Holy Roman Emperor and concluding with the final transformation of the Spanish tercios into regiments in 1704.

Описание: Pocos personajes de la historia reciente han tenido el impacto de Hugo Rafael Chavez Frias (1954-2013). Presidente de Venezuela desde 1999 hasta 2013, su mensaje de las realizaciones de la Revolucion Bolivariana inicio un movimiento en America Latina que abrio el camino para dirigentes nuevos, de origen sindical, militante social, militar o hasta guerrillero: Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva y Dilma Rousseff en Brasil, Evo Morales en Bolivia, Rafael Correa en Ecuador, Nestor Kirchner y Cristina Fernandez en Argentina, Tabare Vazquez y Jose "Pepe" Mujica en Uruguay, y tantos otros. En este revelador libro, fruto de cinco anos de trabajo y mas de doscientas horas de conversaciones con Chavez, Ignacio Ramonet logra retratar al dirigente venezolano a traves de sus propias palabras.
Quien era Chavez antes de convertirse en una personalidad publica universalmente conocida? Como fue su infancia? Como se formo? Cuando se inicio en la politica? Cuales fueron sus lecturas? Que influencias recibio? Cual era su vision geopolitica? Que corriente ideologica reclamaba? Estas memorias dialogadas, centradas en la primera etapa de la vida del presidente venezolano, clave y explicacion de su posterior trayectoria, son una obra de historia insoslayable para quien quiera entender el arranque del siglo-- en America Latina y el mundo.

Описание: Advances in the Analysis of Spanish Exclamatives is the first book entirely devoted to Spanish exclamatives, a special sentence type often overlooked by contemporary linguists and neglected in standard grammatical descriptions. The seven essays in this volume, each by a leading specialist on the topic, scrutinize the syntax--as well as the semantic and pragmatic aspects--of exclamations on theoretical grounds.
The book begins by summarizing, commenting on, and evaluating previous descriptive and theoretical contributions on Spanish exclamatives. This introductory overview also contains a detailed classification of Spanish exclamative grammatical types, along with an analysis of their main properties. Special attention is devoted in the book throughoutto the syntactic structures displayed by exclamative patterns; the differences between exclamations and other speech acts (specifically questions and imperatives); the peculiar semantic denotation of exclamative words and their relationship to quantifiers denoting high degree; the semantics of adjectives and adverbs expressing extreme evaluation; the form and interpretation of negated and embedded exclamatives; the properties of optative utterances; and the different ways in which expressive contents are related to unexpected reactions of the speaker, as well as possible knowledge shared by interlocutors.
This groundbreaking volume provides a complete and accurate picture of Spanish exclamation by integrating its numerous component parts.

Описание: The book describes the experience of Rafael Calderon-Almendros (the first person with Down syndrome to obtain a professional music degree in Spain) and his family. A confrontation arose with his school at the end of his compulsory secondary education stage. After Rafael had been a student in the centre from the start of his education, the institution lost its vision and denied the student his rights. The school used concealed segregation strategies, legitimized by the institution and its professionals, which were almost insurmountable.However, Rafael’s family embarked on a process of Action Research, began to fight for the recognition of the right for all students to obtain a formal education. This research shows how critical analyses were born from the experiences of a representative of one of the most disadvantaged groups (disabled people), which have been rigorously recorded and evidenced. From an inclusive, engaged and radical perspective, the text presents a solid case of someone outside the able-dominated average completing his education to a high professional standard. His success is endorsed by subsequent events: Rafael passed his compulsory secondary education, the equivalent of the English Baccalaureate and his Elementary and Professional Grades of Music (ten years). He obtained the Gold Medal of Merit in Education of Andalusia and the World Down Syndrome Day Award. He was admitted to the prestigious Academy of Orchestral Studies Barenboim-Said. Rafael has nothing else to prove.Today, his example challenges many of the usual school practices and urges us to rethink the commitment of educators in stimulating the participation of the entire school community, in promoting student autonomy and the recognition of others in their human and social rights.English translation provided by Baker & McKenzie Barcelona, S.L.P.

Описание:

"In the year 2042, the Human Transfer Act (HTA 42) was established as the law governing the biomedical process of Human Transfer. It is a complex process by which the brain, the conscious self and the complete identity of one human being (known as the guest) is transferred to another human body (known as the receptacle)."

John Fridman is the owner and CEO of the largest biomedical firm in the country, LiveTrans Corp; leader in the field of Human Identity Transfers.

Henry Callaway owns the only viable competitor, NewHope Inc., and he will stop at nothing to satisfy his ambition for his company to lead the field of Human Identity Transfers.

Against this backdrop, we meet Alex who is John's best friend. Alex works for the apparently legitimate group who call themselves the Organ Providers (OPs). But the OPs are a nefarious and ruthless gang and they arrange assassinations to obtain organs as and when they need them.

Alex finds himself in over his head when he is asked to assassinate John Fridman. He must confront some very dangerous people if he refuses to do this; but what is his alternative?

This fast-paced thriller leaves us breathless as we follow the machinations of the people who will win at any cost. What will the price be for Alex and John?

Описание: The Inquisitionis Hispanicae Artes (Heidelberg, 1567), written by exiled Spanish Protestants, is the first systematic denunciation of the Spanish Inquisition. Its first part is a description of the Inquisition’s methods, making use of the Inquisition’s own instruction manual, which was not publicly known. Its second section presents a gallery of individuals who suffered persecution in Seville during the anti-Protestant repression (1557-1565). The book had a great impact, being almost immediately translated into English, French, Dutch, German, and Hungarian. The portraits very soon passed into Protestant martyrologies, and the most shocking descriptions (torture, auto de fe) became ammunition for anti-Spanish literature. This critical edition presents a new text as well as, for the first time, extensive notes.

Sin duda, el presente libro responde a preguntas imprescindibles para entender la historia reciente de Cuba y completa de forma definitiva aquella obra.

Como eran los padres de Castro? Donde y cuando se forjo el rebelde? Como fue su relacion con el Che? Estuvo el mundo al borde de una guerra nuclear durante la llamada "Crisis de los misiles"? Que impresion le causo el papa Juan Pablo II cuando visito la isla en 1998? Que piensa de la globalizacion neoliberal y de George W. Bush? Del rey Juan Carlos y los presidentes espanoles? De Hugo Chavez y Evo Morales? Existe corrupcion en el regimen? Que ocurrira con Cuba en el futuro proximo?

Fidel Castro. Biografia a dos voces traza un recorrido por la controvertida figura del lider cubano, proporcionando un relato apasionante sobre el pasado, el presente y el porvenir de la Revolucion, y se constituye como la memoria oral de uno de los hombres que definieron el siglo XX.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Now in paperback, the intimate and highly revealing life story of the world's longest-serving, most charismatic, and contro- versial head of state in modern times.

Numerous attempts have been made to get Fidel Castro to tell his own story. But it was only as he stepped down after five decades in power, that the Cuban leader finally decided to set out the detail of his life for the world to read. In these pages, he presents a compelling chronicle that spans the harshness of his school teachers; the early failures of the revolution; his comradeship with Che Guevara and their astonishing, against-all-odds victory over the dictator Batista; the Cuban perspective on the Bay of Pigs and the ensuing missile crisis; the active role of Cuba in African independence movements; his dealings with no fewer than ten successive American presidents, from Eisenhower to George W. Bush; and a number of thorny issues, including human rights, the treatment of homosexuals, and the use of the death penalty in Cuba. Along the way he shares intimacies about more personal matters: the benevolent strict- ness of his father, his success- ful attempt to give up cigars, his love of Ernest Hemingway's novels, and his calculation that by not shaving he saves up to ten working days each year.

Drawing on more than one hundred hours of interviews, this spoken autobiography will stand as the definitive record of an extraordinary life lived in turbulent times.
