Book Description
The tenth volume in the Recovering the US Hispanic Literary Heritage Series, this collection of essays reflects on the twenty-fifth anniversary of the project’s efforts to locate, identify, preserve and disseminate the literary contributions of US Latinos from the Spanish Colonial Period to contemporary times. Essays by scholars recalling the beginnings of the project cover a wide range of topics: origins, identity, archival research, institutional politics and pedagogy. From recollections about funding to personal reminiscences, the recovery of Jewish Hispanic heritage and the intellectual project of reframing American history and literature, these articles provide a fascinating look at twenty-five years of recovering the written legacy of the Hispanic population in what has become the United States. An additional nineteen scholarly essays speak to specific efforts to recover an extremely diverse Latino literary heritage. Historians and literary critics who research Spanish, English and Sephardic texts examine a broad array of subjects, including colonialism, historical populations, exile and immigration. This far-reaching book is required reading for those studying US Latino history and literature.

Earn More (sleep Better)
Author: Richard Eli EvansPublisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 0684852500
Category : Index mutual funds
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
This is likely to be the most important book you will ever read about investing. It recommends a very simple, step-by-step strategy to do what sophisticated professionals do -- use index funds as the vehicle of choice for their investment assets. Why Index Funds? For the fifteen-year period ending December 31, 1997, an S&P 500 index fund beat 90 percent of all diversified stock funds -- before counting sales charges and the tax advantage of index funds. In fact, index funds have outperformed non-index funds across a wide range of asset classes and time periods. What about individual stocks and bonds? Based on the evidence, investing with individual stocks, bonds, or conventional mutual funds is not likely to give you the best results. It makes more sense to invest with a diversified portfolio of index funds, balanced to fit your needs and goals. How do Index Funds perform in bear markets? Index funds in six recent bear markets held up better than conventional, non-index funds.
