ISBN: 9781531649562 / Angielski / Twarda / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Rochester region traces its roots back to pioneers like Puerto Rican Domingo Delgado, a key Eastman Kodak executive of the 1890s. Like many immigrants before them, Latinos arrived in search of the better opportunities Rochester offered and by the 1950s had an established community with churches and businesses. The 1960s and 1970s brought the development of the Latino identity and foreshadowed the growing political and economic power the community wields today.

Latinos in Pasadena
ISBN: 9781531645724 / Angielski / Twarda / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Histories of Pasadena are rich in details about important citizens, time-honored traditions, and storied enclaves such as Millionaires Row and Lamanda Park.

A fuller story of the Pasadena area can be provided from these vintage images and the accompanying information culled from anecdotes, master's...

Receive Our Memories: The Letters of Luz Moreno, 1950-1952
ISBN: 9780199340422 / Angielski / Twarda / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Receive our Memories is a rare study of an epistolary relationship for individuals whose migration from Mexico has been looked at en masse, but not from such a personal and human angle. The heart of the book consists of eighty translated and edited versions of letters from Luz Moreno, a poor, uneducated Mexican sharecropper, to his daughter, a recent emigre to California, in the 1950s. These are contextualized and framed in light of immigration and labor history, the histories of Mexico and the United States in this period, and family history. Although Moreno's letters include...

ISBN: 9780814761120 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The largely unexamined and often forgotten history of more than a hundred years of Cuban exile, migration, diaspora, and community formation Beginning in the early nineteenth century, Cubans migrated to New York City to organize and protest against Spanish colonial rule.

An underlying element was the concept of Cubanidad, a shared sense of what it meant to be Cuban. Deeply influenced by discussions of slavery, freedom, masculinity, and...

Cuerpos plegables: Anatomías de la excepción en España y en America Latina (Siglos XVI-XVIII)
ISBN: 9781855662902 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Este libro explora la atraccion de los -Siglos de oro- por lo monstruoso. Varios trabajos recientes ya han arrojado luz sobre la abundante representacion de cuerpos excesivos que afloran en los siglos XVI y XVII y que parecen, acaso, reflejar el lenguaje inflado y deformado a traves del cual son descritos en la literatura de la epoca. Sin obviar sus logros, el libro intenta ir mas alla para mostrar que lo mas sorprendente de la monstruosidad en este periodo no es la manera en que representa un exceso barroco, sino la forma en que el exceso mismo esta estructurado en una imagen dual. Muchos de...

History and Language in the Andes
ISBN: 9781349286256 / Angielski / Miękka / 266 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The modern world began with the clash of civilisations between Spaniards and native Americans. Their interplay and struggles ever since are mirrored in the fates of the very languages they spoke. The conquistadors wrought theirs into a new 'world language'; yet the Andes still host the New World's greatest linguistic survivor, Quechua. Historians and linguists see this through different - but complementary - perspectives. This book is a meeting of minds, long overdue, to weave them together. It ranges from Inca collapse to the impacts of colonial rule, reform, independence, and the modern-day...
