Book Description
Many language books are boring—this one is not. Written by a native English speaker who learned Spanish the hard way—by trying to talk to Spanish-speaking people—it offers English speakers with a basic knowledge of Spanish hundreds of tips for using the language more fluently and colloquially, with fewer obvious "gringo" errors. Writing with humor, common sense, and a minimum of jargon, Joseph Keenan covers everything from pronunciation, verb usage, and common grammatical mistakes to the subtleties of addressing other people, "trickster" words that look alike in both languages, inadvertent obscenities, and intentional swearing. He guides readers through the set phrases and idiomatic expressions that pepper the native speaker's conversation and provides a valuable introduction to the most widely used Spanish slang. With this book, both students in school and adult learners who never want to see another classroom can rapidly improve their speaking ability. Breaking Out of Beginner's Spanish will be an essential aid in passing the supreme language test-communicating fluently with native speakers.

Book Description
Excerpt from Colloquial Spanish This work is intended for those who desire to acquire a fair knowledge of the Castilian tongue in the shortest possible time. It makes no pretension to completeness, but when the student arrives at the end of it, having mastered its contents, he should be able to write and speak the language with a very fair degree of accuracy. Practice with natives and with Spanish literature will be necessary for perfect understanding. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
"Galicia is the least known and the least written about of all the little kingdoms that go to the making of Spain. Her boundaries have been greatly reduced since the days when the Romans divided the Peninsula into five provinces and called one of them Galicia".The irruption of the Saracens in 713 again changed the aspect of the Peninsula, and the limits of Galicia were contracted; but Spanish geographers to this day call her a reino, or kingdom, and divide her into four little provinces 'Coru'a, Pontevedra, Orense, and Lugo." The history of this little known Spanish kingdom examines geography, early history, architecture, emigration, farming, monasteries and other topics. Chapters include: Ancient Galicia; The Geography of Galicia; The First Golden Age; The Salve Regina; The Language of Galicia; Pilgrims to Santiago; The Architecture of Galicia; The Cathedral of Santiago; The Portico de Gloria; Sculptured Capitals; The Royal Hospital; The Colegiata de Sar; La Coru'a; Emigration; Rosalia Castro; Santiago de Compostela; Galicia's Livestock; Padron; La Bellisima Noya; Pontevedra; Vigo and Tuy; Orense; Monforte and Lugo; Betanzos and Ferrol; The Great Monasteries of Galicia; Trees, Fruits, and Flowers; and Dives Callaecia. A map of Galicia, 105 illustrations (mostly photographs), a bibliography, and an index to full names, places and subjects add to the value of this work.

Book Description
Excerpt from History of Spanish Literature, Vol. 1 of 3 The natural result of such a long-continued interest in Spanish literature, and of so many pleasant inducements to study it, has been - I speak in a spirit of extenuation and self-defence - a book. In the interval between my two residences m Europe I delivered lectures upon its principal topics to successive classes in Harvard College; and, on my return home from the second, I endeavoured to arrange these lectures for publication. But when I had already employed much labour and time on them, I found -or thought I found - that the tone of discussion which I had adopted for my academical audiences was not suited to the purposes of a regular history. Destroying, there fore, what I had written, I began afresh my never un welcome task, and so have prepared the present work, as little connected with all I had previously done as it, perhaps, can be, and yet cover so much of the same ground.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Reform Spanish Handbook No apology is needed for inflicting another Spanish text book ou the public, as there are very few books published in this country for the study of the language, and of those few there is only one which adopts the Reform Method, and that one is only suitable for children. Professional teachers have troubled themselves very little about Spanish, which ranks only second in importance to English as a commercial language. Whilst valuable crumbs of know ledge can be gleaned from the Spanish textbooks that have been published of recent years, they are based on no intelligible educational principles. This book is written for adolescents and adults, as Spanish is seldom studied by young children. -it therefore avoids the hackneyed language of the class room, but presents advanced ideas in a simple form. From the second lesson onwards it makes use of the vocabulary and ideas of the commercial world, without, however, neglecting the literary Side of a language so rich in the masterpieces of literature. Part II. Gives the student in simple language some idea of the geography, products, and industry of Spanish speaking countries, which should be easily read by the student when he has mastered the first ten lessons. These are followed by extracts from Spanish newspapers and magazines, and cover a wide vocabulary. To enable-the private student to use the book, a complete vocabulary containing many common idioms has been added, and a summary of the Grammar is given in English in Part III. There is now a pretty general consensus of opinion in favour of a compromise between the old methods and the new.

Book Description
Excerpt from La Gaviota a Spanish Novel In rendering into English the ballads and other poetry, so profusely interspersed throughout this novel, I had to decide between the preservation of the original thoughts and ideas, in all their quaintness and integrity, and wrest from my translation that poetic elegance which, as English poetry, I could have wished to have clothed it in; or to abandon all the original, save the mere text, and write inde pendent stanzas in English, as though I had composed original poetry, borrowing only the thought from the Spanish text. My habitual desire, in all my translations, being to preserve the original sense in its fullest force, I adopted the former of these two views; and thus, while the reader will find no poetic beauty, he will have before him the entire original thoughts. The translation of any foreign poetry into chaste and elegant English verse is acknowledged to be a very difficult task. At the end of this volume are four specimens, to satisfy the curious, of a strictly literal verbal translation of short poetic sprinklings towards the conclusion of the tale.
