The Language Encounter in the Americas, 1492-1800
ISBN: 9781571811608 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. When Columbus arrived in the Americas there were, it is believed, as many as 2,000 distinct, mutually unintelligible tongues spoken in the western hemisphere, encompassing the entire area from the Arctic Circle to Tierra del Fuego.

Although a central event in the history of the French in the New World, the full significance of the revolution has yet to be realized. These essays deepen our understanding of Haiti during the period from 1791 to 1815. They consider the colony's history and material culture; its "free people of color"; the events leading up to the revolution and its violent unfolding; the...
