Hardcover. Condition: New. Portuguese Vocables in Asiatic Languages, originally authored by Monsignor Sebastião Rodolfo Dalgado, is a pioneering linguistic study translated and expanded upon by Anthony Xavier Soares. This work explores the profound influence of Portuguese on Various Asian languages, tracing the legacy of the Portuguese Empire's presence in Asia from the 16tfs century onward. Through detailed linguistic analysis, Dalgado identified Portuguese words that were assimilated into local vocabularies, illustrating the cultural and historical interplay between Europe and Asia. The book highlights the Portuguese contribution to Asian languages such as Konkani, Malayalam, Sinhalese, Bengali, and Malay, among others. By providing etymological insights, Dalgado meticulously charts the adoption and adaptation of Portuguese terms into everyday speech, often reflecting specific domains like trade, religion, and technology. Soares' translation further enriches the text, making Dalgado's findings accessible to a broader audience and situating them within a global context. This volume is a treasure trove for linguists, historians, and cultural scholars, as it not only documents linguistic borrowings but also paints a vivid picture of the socio- cultural exchanges that defined the Age of Exploration. Its scholarly rigor and interdisciplinary appeal make it a seminal resource for understanding the enduring impact of Portuguese on Asian linguistic and cultural landscapes. …

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The island, because of its supposed isolation, and its apparent small scale, has historically been a privileged site of colonial aggression and acquisitiveness. Yet the island has also been imagined as a uniquely sovereign space, and thus one in which the colonial enterprise can be seen as especially egregious. 'Islandedness' takes on a particular charge in the early twenty-first century, in the supposedly postcolonial period. While contemporary media offer a simulacrum of proximity to others, the reality is that we are ever more distant, inhabiting islands both real and conceptual. Meanwhile migrants from today's 'postcolonial' islands are routinely denied access to the perceived 'mainland'. And, in islands freed from overt colonialism, but often beset by neocolonial forces of domination and control, identities are constructed so as to differentiate insider from outsider - even when the outsider comes from within.This is the first volume devoted explicitly to the postcolonial island, conceived in a broad geographical, historical, and metaphorical sense. Branching across disciplinary parameters (literary studies, anthropology, history, cultural studies), and analyzing a range of cultural forms (literature, dance, print journalism, and television), the volume attempts to focus critically on three areas: the current realities of formerly colonized island nations; the phenomenon of 'foreign' communities living within a dominant host community; and the existence of (local) practices and theoretical perspectives that complement, but are often critical of, prevailing theories of the postcolonial. The islands treated in the volume include Ireland, Montserrat, Martinique, Mauritius, and East Timor, and the collection includes more broadly conceived historical and theoretical essays. The volume should be required reading for scholars working in postcolonial studies, in island studies, and for those working in and across a range of disciplines (literature, cultural studies, anthropology).Contributors: Ralph Crane, Matthew Boyd Goldie, Lyn Innes, Maeve McCusker, Paulo de Medeiros, Burkhard Schnepel, Cornelia Schnepel, Jonathan Skinner, Anthony Soares, Ritu Tyagi, Mark Wehrly.…
