A Brief History of the Spanish Language $30 Spanish is the fourth most widely spoken language in the world and a language of ever-increasing importance in the United States. In what will likely become the introduction to the history of the Spanish language, David Pharies clearly and concisely charts the evolution of Spanish from its Indo-European roots to its present form. An internationally recognized expert on the history and development of this language, Pharies brings to his subject a precise sense of what students of Spanish linguistics need to know. After introductory chapters on what it means to study the history of a language, the concept of linguistic change, and the nature of language families, Pharies traces the development of Spanish from its Latin roots, all with the minimum amount of technical language possible.  In the core sections of the book, readers are treated to an engaging and remarkably succinct presentation of the genealogy and development of the language, including accounts of the structures and peculiarities of Latin, the historical and cultural events that deeply influenced the shaping of the language, the nature of Medieval Spanish, the language myths that have become attached to Spanish, and the development of the language beyond the Iberian Peninsula, especially in the Americas. Focusing on the most important facets of the language’s evolution, this compact work makes the history of Spanish accessible to anyone with a knowledge of Spanish and a readiness to grasp basic linguistic concepts. Available in both English and Spanish editions, A Brief History of the Spanish Language  provides a truly outstanding introduction to the exciting story of one of the world’s great languages.   |

Studies in the Colonial History of Spanish America $66.91 The seven essays that are contained in Mario G ngoras Studies in the Colonial History of Spanish America demonstrate his exceptional range as a historian, as they run from the eve of discovery and conquest of the Indies to the end of the Spanish Empire, and connect matters as seemingly distant as the place of the New World in Spanish utopian thought and the humble workings of the native labour system. Professor G ngora draws on his own previous work on the theory and technique of conquest, showing its European precedents and context, and displaying the mastery of local detail that readers of his previous books will expect. In these essays he also reflects on the advances in scholarship that have been made in the last decades, and relates one monograph to another, one local study to a larger issue, practical developments and ideological currents, in a manner that will appeal not only to all students of the Spanish Empire and of Spain, but to historians of many different interests.

The History of Cartier
The history of Cartier began from 1874. Louis Francois Cartier took charge of the jewelry shop of his skilled teacher in Paris and then established the Cartier Jewelry Shop officially. Because at that time, Paris just went through the turbulence of competing after the throne and restored the ostentatious meteorology as the flower city, this impelled the prosperity of the jewelry industry of Paris.
And what’s more, Cartier obtained the recommendation of the cousin of Napoleon third Princess Mathilde luckily, which helped the business to grow unceasingly. In 1902, the shops of Cartier had already arrived at London and New York. And New York became the headquarters of the Cartier Empire step by step. After the run of only two generations, Cartier has become the king of the jewelry in the whole world.
With the broadcast of the reputation as the jewelry kingdom, Cartier became the specific jewelry business to a variety of imperial families in Europe and is honored as the emperor of jewelry business and the ruler’s jewelry business. The British imperial family once ordered 27 imperial crowns from Cartier to use as coronation. In addition, the Spanish, the Portuguese, the Romanian, the Egyptian, the Orleans family of prince of France, the Moroccan and the Albanian’s imperial families also appoint Cartier as the imperial jewelry business.
The design of jewelry needs the classical esthetics. But it also must add some contemporary deduction of spirit. With this way, the works can have the modernity, thus is accepted by the people. The historical and glorious Cartier once had many important topics of designs, including “the series of subject creation”, “the reproduction of high-quality jewelry’s art” and so on. These traditional ideas of design affect Cartier profoundly.
To seek the combination of the time’s characteristic and traditional process charm is the highest boundary which the series of high-quality jewelry of Cartier has pursued. Cartier deducts the true meaning that the beauty lies in simply but not in complicated and lies in harmoniously but not in conflict in the smooth line and the bright clear colors.
In a word, Cartier is a well-known jewelry brand all over the world and the works of it are perfect and magnificent.
