The Caballero's Son by Anne Schroeder Pdf

"Miguelito Robles is as solid as the mighty oak from which he takes his name in this passionate sequel to Maria Inés, previously published by Five Star. 1850s' pastoral California simmers with strife as desperate ex-gold miners descend from the Sierra Nevada. The courts favor Americans over Spanish landowners. Californio sons defend their family estates and their sisters' honor against Yanqui riffraff. Miguelito is a brash Indian youth trapped between cultures. He believes his father was a dashing Spanish caballero, his mother an Indian woman of beauty. He saves haughty Elena and claims a dance as his reward. Enraged highborn Spaniards intervene and his friend is killed. He spends two years as an outcast until loneliness drives him to a fiesta where he witnesses Elena's forced marriage, follows the portly groom to an inn, and kills to free her. An outcast in his own land, he joins Tiburcio Vasquez in a furious year of raids. The bandits distribute their loot to the poor while evading American posses dogging them from Los Angeles to San Jose. His attempt to rescue Elena ruins her chances for a desirable marriage. Maria Inés accosts him on the trail, claiming to be his mother. His journey to acceptance of his Indian roots is complicated, but aided by his woman's love and the birth of his son. "A passionate story of interest to lovers of historical romance and fans of California's history." "The Caballero's Son is a modern-day Ramona by Helen Hunt Jackson." Advance Reader Reviews"--

Chicano Nations by Marissa K. Lopez Pdf

Are Japanese women happy with their roles as wives and mothers, content to leave the stress of fourteen-hour days in offices and commuter trains to men? Or are they frustrated by the limitations of this traditional arrangement? Why are Japanese women actively discouraged from pursuing careers when they have one of the highest levels of education in the world? Will a new generation of women be able gain equality at home and at work? With elegant prose, noted biographer and critic Patricia Morley tackles these questions as she explores the daily lives and the hopes and aspirations of dynamic Japanese women. Based on hundreds of interviews, The Mountain is Moving looks at the many facets of women's lives, including education, marriage and child rearing, the workplace, eldercare, the political arena, and volunteerism. The interviews are complemented by readings of a diverse and compelling range of stories and novels by and about Japanese women.

Federico by Federico Jiménez Caballero Pdf

From the day he was born, Federico Jiménez Caballero was predicted to be a successful man. So, how exactly did a young boy from Tututepec, Oaxaca, become a famous Indigenous jewelry artist and philanthropist in Los Angeles? Federico tells the remarkable story of willpower, curiosity, hard work, and passion coming together to change one man’s life forever. As a child growing up in a small rural town in southern Mexico, Federico Jiménez Caballero faced challenges that most of us cannot imagine, let alone overcome. From a young age, Federico worked tirelessly to contribute to his large family, yet his restless spirit often got him into trouble. Finding himself in the middle of a village-wide catastrophe, he was exiled to a boarding school in Oaxaca City where he was forced to become independent, resilient, and razor-sharp in order to stay afloat. Through his incredible people skills, bravery, and a few nudges from his bold mother, Federico found himself excelling in his studies and climbing the ranks in Oaxaca City. He always held a deep love and respect for his Mixtec Indigenous roots and began to collect Indigenous jewelry and textiles. Through a series of well-timed connections, Federico met his wife Ellen, and, shortly afterward, he came to the United States as a researcher at the University of California, Los Angeles, in the late 1960s. Carrying his passion for Indigenous jewelry with him from Oaxaca, Federico owned a series of shops in Los Angeles and sold jewelry at flea markets to well-known Hollywood stars. Over the years, he cultivated relationships and became a philanthropist as well as the owner of a museum in Oaxaca City. This book is the inspiring first-person account of eighty years in the life of a man who moved from humble beginnings to the bright lights of Hollywood, following his passion and creating long-lasting relationships as he climbed the ladder of success.

Changing Minds Changing Tools by Vsevolod Kapatsinski Pdf

A book that uses domain-general learning theory to explain recurrent trajectories of language change. In this book, Vsevolod Kapatsinski argues that language acquisition—often approached as an isolated domain, subject to its own laws and mechanisms—is simply learning, subject to the same laws as learning in other domains and well described by associative models. Synthesizing research in domain-general learning theory as it relates to language acquisition, Kapatsinski argues that the way minds change as a result of experience can help explain how languages change over time and can predict the likely directions of language change—which in turn predicts what kinds of structures we find in the languages of the world. What we know about how we learn (the core question of learning theory) can help us understand why languages are the way they are (the core question of theoretical linguistics). Taking a dynamic, usage-based perspective, Kapatsinski focuses on diachronic universals, recurrent pathways of language change, rather than synchronic universals, properties that all languages share. Topics include associative approaches to learning and the neural implementation of the proposed mechanisms; selective attention; units of language; a comparison of associative and Bayesian approaches to learning; representation in the mind of visual and auditory experience; the production of new words and new forms of words; and automatization of repeated action sequences. This approach brings us closer to understanding why languages are the way they are, Kapatsinski contends, than approaches premised on innate knowledge of language universals and the language acquisition device.
