Book Description
Edición corregida y aumentada. Este diccionario de lunfardo, con casi seis mil entradas, es el único que da cuenta de la etimología de los vocablos y resulta incomparable por su rigor científico, lo que redunda en una mayor claridad y facilita las búsquedas. La palabra lunfardo, que en su origen significó "ladrón" define un extenso vocabulario que nació en las ciudades rioplatenses y se extendió luego al resto del país y a las naciones limítrofes hasta instalarse definitivamente en nuestra habla cotidiana. Las palabras que usamos son mucho más que un medio de comunicación: en su conjunto reflejan un modo de ver el mundo, de categorizar la realidad, de entenderla, en suma, de vivirla. Y sólo nacen cuando el hablante no tiene otras mejores para expresar lo que quiere decir. Los lunfardismos no escapan a esta ley, y constituyen un potente caudal que enriquece nuestro idioma y contribuye de manera indiscutible a construir nuestra identidad. La presente edición, corregida y aumentada, incorpora nuevas acepciones de términos ya registrados y añade voces que no contaban con registro hasta la fecha, como cachengue, ladri, roche, tarlipes y viejazo, entre otras.

Preterit Expansion and Perfect Demise in Porteño Spanish and Beyond
Author: Guro Fløgstad
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900430908X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
In Preterit Expansion and Perfect Demise in Porteño Spanish and Beyond, Guro Nore Fløgstad offers an original account of the way in which the Preterit category has expanded, at the expense of the Perfect, in Porteño Spanish – a variety spoken in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Through primary sources and a large cross-linguistic sample, Fløgstad convincingly shows that the expansion of a Preterit is not rare in the languages of the world. This finding challenges the prevailing view in historical morphosyntax, and especially in usage-based grammaticalization theory, namely the alleged preference for analytic over synthetic forms, and the possibility of prediction based on the source meaning in grammaticalization. This book is fully available in Open Access.

Tango Lessons
Author: Marilyn G. Miller
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 0822377233
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
From its earliest manifestations on the street corners of nineteenth-century Buenos Aires to its ascendancy as a global cultural form, tango has continually exceeded the confines of the dance floor or the music hall. In Tango Lessons, scholars from Latin America and the United States explore tango's enduring vitality. The interdisciplinary group of contributors—including specialists in dance, music, anthropology, linguistics, literature, film, and fine art—take up a broad range of topics. Among these are the productive tensions between tradition and experimentation in tango nuevo, representations of tango in film and contemporary art, and the role of tango in the imagination of Jorge Luis Borges. Taken together, the essays show that tango provides a kaleidoscopic perspective on Argentina's social, cultural, and intellectual history from the late nineteenth to the early twenty-first centuries. Contributors. Esteban Buch, Oscar Conde, Antonio Gómez, Morgan James Luker, Carolyn Merritt, Marilyn G. Miller, Fernando Rosenberg, Alejandro Susti

From Formal Linguistic Theory to the Art of Historical Editions
Author: Natascha Pomino
Publisher: V&R Unipress
ISBN: 3847015532
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 389
Book Description
Romance is a fertile ground for linguistic research. Instead of limiting their studies to one specialised area, some Romance scholars have managed to combine different aspects of the broad field of Romance linguistics in an impressive way. This volume is dedicated to the multifaceted research interests of Guido Mensching: Part 1 focusses on different aspects of the architecture of grammar and linguistic theory, covering Italian, Portuguese, French, Sardinian and Romance. The focus of Part 2 is on historical linguistics, discussing Old Occitan lexicography and Romance in Hebrew scripts. Part 3 is dedicated to aspects relating to plurilingualism, language contact and sociolinguistics. Part 4 explores research arguments that go beyond Romance philology but are nonetheless intertwined with it.

Homeless Tongues
Author: Monique Balbuena
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 0804797498
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
This book examines a group of multicultural Jewish poets to address the issue of multilingualism within a context of minor languages and literatures, nationalism, and diaspora. It introduces three writers working in minor or threatened languages who challenge the usual consensus of Jewish literature: Algerian Sadia Lévy, Israeli Margalit Matitiahu, and Argentine Juan Gelman. Each of them—Lévy in French and Hebrew, Matitiahu in Hebrew and Ladino, and Gelman in Spanish and Ladino—expresses a hybrid or composite Sephardic identity through a strategic choice of competing languages and intertexts. Monique R. Balbuena's close literary readings of their works, which are mostly unknown in the United States, are strongly grounded in their social and historical context. Her focus on contemporary rather than classic Ladino poetry and her argument for the inclusion of Sephardic production in the canon of Jewish literature make Homeless Tongues a timely and unusual intervention.
