Equal in their outrage are Spanish-language purists and the supporters of the Royal Academy of the Spanish Language in Madrid, as they deem Spanglish a cancer to their precious and centuries-old tongue. With elegance and erudition, Ilan Stavans reflects on the verbal rift that has given birth to Spanglish. He shows the historical tensions between the British and Spanish Empires, and how in 1588, with the sinking of the grand Spanish Armada, the rivalry between the two empires was solidified, and to this day, the differences in religion and culture continue their fight linguistically." "He ponders major historical events, such as the Guadalupe Hidalgo Treaty of 1848 and the Spanish-American War fifty years later, as agents of radical linguistic change, although, as he rightly states, it is in the second half of the twentieth century that Spanglish sped into our daily reality." "Stavans also points out the similarities and differences Spanglish has with Yiddish, so thoroughly blending into the American vocabulary, and the much-debated Ebonics, which made headlines in the early 1990s as a uniquely African American blend of proper English and urban slang. Ultimately, Stavans deftly proves that the manner in which a language stays alive is through mutation and that its survival doesn't depend on academies but on the average person's need for expression. This explains why it is increasingly used not only in kitchens and school but in music, TV, film, and literature, all expressions of the American collective soul." "Coupled with Stavan's insights is a substantial lexicon that shows the breadth and ingenuity of this growing vocabulary - at times, semantically obvious, then also surprisingly inventive. A translation into Spanglish of the first chapter of Don Quixote de La Mancha comes as a bonus. The added impact proves that Spanglish is more than a language - it is the perfect metaphor for an American that is a hybrid, a sum of parts."--Jacket. 000799422 650_0 $$aMexican Americans$$xLanguages. 000799422 650_0 $$aEnglish language$$zUnited States$$xForeign words and phrases$$xSpanish. 000799422 650_0 $$aEnglish language$$zUnited States$$xForeign elements$$xSpanish. 000799422 650_0 $$aEnglish language$$xVariation$$zUnited States. 000799422 650_0 $$aSpanish language$$xInfluence on English. 000799422 650_0 $$aLanguages in contact$$zUnited States. 000799422 650_0 $$aHispanic Americans$$xLanguages. 000799422 650_0 $$aBilingualism$$zUnited States. 000799422 650_0 $$aAmericanisms. 000799422 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xLanguages. 000799422 85200 $$bgen$$hPE3102.M4$$iS63$$i2003 000799422 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:799422$$pGLOBAL_SET 000799422 980__ $$aBIB 000799422 980__ $$aBOOK
