University of Nebraska Press The Spirit and the Sky: Lakota Visions of the Cosmos
The interest of nineteenth-century Lakotas in the Sun, the Moon, and the stars was an essential part of their never-ending quest to understand their world. The Spirit and the Sky presents a survey of the ethnoastronomy of the nineteenth-century Lakotas and relates Lakota astronomy to their cultural practices and beliefs. The center of Lakota belief is the incomprehensible, extraordinary, and sacred nature of the world in which they live. The earth beneath and the stars above constitute their holistic world. Mark Hollabaugh offers a detailed analysis of aspects of Lakota culture that have a bearing on Lakota astronomy, including telling time, their names for the stars and constellations as they appeared from the Great Plains, and the phenomena of meteor showers, eclipses, and the aurora borealis. Hollabaugh’s explanation of the cause of the aurora that occurred at the death of Black Elk in 1950 is a new contribution to ethnoastronomy.

Deep Vellum Publishing Out of the Cage
Out of the Cage opens in 1956, in Argentina, with the freakish death of Aurora Berro, and descends into a dark philosophical exploration of humanity and mortality. In the midst of her family’s celebration of a national holiday, an LP, careening through the air like a “demented boomerang,” severs her jugular. Her family— an agglomeration of perversions, deformities, and obsessions—seems at first not to notice, singing on. Aurora is left behind in a voyeuristic limbo as an omniscient first-person narrator, to observe the depravity of her family and reflect on the farce of her life and human existence. Fernanda García Lao has been called “the strangest writer of Argentine literature,” and in Out of the Cage, she lives up to that distinction. The book is saturated in strangeness, a blend of formal experimentation, eroticism, grotesque theatricality, and dark humor that evokes the absurdist fictions of Witold Gombrowicz and the style of Silvina Ocampo. The result is a macabre and fantastic vaudeville, a tragicomedy, a kind of Dadaist opus against ideas of eternal beauty and fixed identity, against absolute concepts and universality.

Channel View Publications Ltd A Portrait of the Young in the New Multilingual Spain
The view that a bilingual speaker, or a speaker acquiring more than one language, is the sum of two —or more— monolinguals is proving to be a myth rather than a reality. Accordingly, this book provides a new profile of children and young people becoming bilingual or multilingual in today’s multicultural Spain. The chapters present studies on the acquisition of the four official languages plus the languages of several new communities. They include descriptive, functional, pragmatic and formal perspectives, covering phonetics, lexis, morphology and syntax, as well as code mixing and input, bilingual twins, SLI bilingualism, narratives, literacy, age and stay abroad effects. The book should be of interest to graduate students and researchers working in the field of second and foreign language acquisition and multilingualism, language planners, language teachers and families alike.

You might wait for the echoes of spoken words to return stronger to the present, the words whom their lives ended back when they were spoken. Like a bull born from a needle's eye, and no matter how hard the bull tries to go back through it, he will not find any way back! Allah have granted Aurora a secret that made people attached easily to her, and urged to reveal before her, there did impressions and dreams explode to her hearing, and the wounded stories got repeated, so did Aurora listen willingly and carefully to it all. When her in-laws decided that the moment of truth have arrived, they began talking endlessly, until the small trifles ended up as massive mountains. What story is there on Aurora's chest? And what fate awaits her?

The guide is further enriched by suggestions for complementary daytime activities such as dog sledging, skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling and wildlife safaris; an examination of the reactions of the early explorers to their first sightings of this phenomenon; and insights into the myths and legends of the northern indigenous peoples. There is even advice on how and where to get married in ice chapels!

With their investigation waylaid by this primitive struggle for survival, Earl Ciel Phantomhive and his exceptional butler, Sebastian, are trapped at the mercy of both the unnatural and Mother Nature herself.

El espejo blanco viajeros españoles en la URSS
Esta es la historia de algunos atípicos viajeros ?Sterling Hayden, Josep Maria de Sagarra, Zane Grey, Friedrich W. Murnau, Victor Segalen, Rupert Brooke, Robert Gibbings o Henri Matisse? a quienes el azar o el sueño llevó a los Mares del Sur, a la Polinesia, como en busca de una Arcadia mítica. Hermanados por el espejismo tahitiano, todos ellos tuvieron algo de beachcombers ?mito complementario al de la vahiné tahitiana?: especie de vagabundos de las islas, disolutos, para quienes Tahití era un irrefrenable anhelo y el viaje a aquellas latitudes una verdadera peregrinación. Mientras tanto, algunas escritoras expatriadas a estas islas, como Aurora Bertrana o Elsa Triolet, redefinirán lo exótico como cotidiano
