Enseñar una lengua extranjera es siempre un desafío. Es mucho más fácil cuando a los estudiantes les encantan los materiales que se utilizan para enseñarles. No muchos libros están escritos por lectores jóvenes de secundaria. Esperamos que a sus estudiantes les guste aprender con estos libros bilingües.
Mucho se ha escrito sobre traducción, pero no tanto sobre lo que en buena medida ha provocado semejante interés por esta disciplina: la didáctica de la traducción. Y es que, para formar a los futuros traductores, apuesta decidida de la universidad española, es necesario conocer la naturaleza y objetivos de lo enseñado para, consecuentemente, elaborar materiales metodológicos idóneos que recojan las diferentes etapas y fases del proceso de análisis y traducción de un texto original. En esta guía didáctica presentamos una oferta metodológica para la traducción de textos idiolectales (ensayo, artículo de opinión, textos literarios, ...) a partir de su consideración comunicativa, determinada por la mayor o menor subjetividad inherente a este tipo de textos. Nuestro propósito es servir de ayuda a los universitarios que forman y se forman en el ámbito de la traducción, ofreciéndoles una sistematización pedagógica que podrán adaptar a sus necesidades acedémicas y experiencia docente.
After years of traveling the world, searching for all life has to offer, Toni Martí realizes that his youthful curiosity has soured into stagnation, depression, and drug addiction. While stumbling through what remains of his life, he commits a crime and is sentenced to community service at a nursing home. Forced to comply, he forms a grudging relationship with Juan, an octogenarian whose family long ago abandoned him, and whose day-to-day life seems undisturbed by change. He also encounters Lucía, who runs the nursing home, but not her life; too fearful to follow the lure of her dreams or rebel against her parents, she has grown dull and unhappy. “Beyond Intensity” captures the story of three characters trapped in lives that bring them only loneliness and despair. Soon, they will be forced to discover what is beyond the pursuit of momentary pleasure, beyond routine, beyond conformity. Against the backdrop of a dehumanized society, these three characters’ lives give us the opportunity to reflect on the culture of immediacy and the search for instant gratification—to ask ourselves, what lies beyond intensity?

Combining poetic language and the traditions of magic realism to paint a vivid portrait of her family, Pat MoraÕs House of Houses is an unconventional memoir that reads as if every member, death notwithstanding, is in one room talking, laughing, and crying. In a salute to the Day of the Dead, the story begins with a visit to the cemetery in which all of her deceased relatives come alive to share stories of the family, literally bringing the food to their own funerals.
