English | January 6, 2009 | ISBN: 0061547425, 9780062010506 | True EPUB | 192 pages | 1.3 MB
It wasn't just heated floors, hot baths, aqueducts, and paved roads that the Romans did first and best-they were also experts at the art of love. From the most effective pickup lines to percipient advice on getting over a breakup, from grooming tips to sex tips, the Romans had time-proof solutions. Charlotte Higgins brings them together in this indispensable guide to love-a collection of the richest, most illuminating, and sensuous writing about this mysterious emotion that can move us to joy or despair.

Latin American Social Movements: Globalization, Democratization, and Transnational Networks By Paul Almeida
2006 | 280 Pages | ISBN: 0742553310 | PDF | 62 MB
The two current trends of democratization and deepening economic liberalization have made Latin American countries a ground for massive defensive mobilization campaigns and have created new sites of popular struggle. In this edited volume on Latin American social movements, original chapters are combined with peer-reviewed articles from the well-regarded journal Mobilization. Each section represents a major theme in Latin American social movement research. Original chapters discuss the Madres de Plaza de Mayo movement in Argentina and the Zapatista movement in Chiapas, Mexico. Also included in the book's coverage of the region's major movements are los piqueteros and antisweatshop labor organizing. This is the first study to focus closely on the related issues of neoliberal globalization, democratization, and the workings of transnational advocacy networks in Latin America.

Mónika Contreras Saiz, "Latin America's Contested Pasts in Telenovelas and TV Series: History as Fuel for Entertainment"
English | ISBN: 3111166503 | 2025 | 403 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
In Latin America, the production of telenovelas and TV series about the region's recent and traumatic past has grown considerably in the last 20 years, affecting societal perceptions of the past, historical consciousness, and political culture. While these TV products are usually perceived as trivial, they do provide a historical framework to a wide audience, which finds it easier to relate to the national past through fiction than through history books, journalistic articles or documentaries.

Latin Alive: The Survival of Latin in English and Romance Languages By Joseph B. Solodow
2010 | 364 Pages | ISBN: 0521515750 | PDF | 3 MB
In Latin Alive, Joseph Solodow tells the story of how Latin developed into modern French, Spanish, and Italian, and deeply affected English as well. Offering a gripping narrative of language change, Solodow charts Latin's course from classical times to the modern era, with focus on the first millennium of the Common Era. Though the Romance languages evolved directly from Latin, Solodow shows how every important feature of Latin's evolution is also reflected in English. His story includes scores of intriguing etymologies, along with many concrete examples of texts, studies, scholars, anecdotes, and historical events; observations on language; and more. Written with crystalline clarity, this is the first book to tell the story of the Romance languages for the general reader and to illustrate so amply Latin's many-sided survival in English as well.
