100 Historias de Fantasmas: Reales y Escalofriantes
En los susurros silenciosos de la noche, cuando las sombras cubren el mundo y una inquietante quietud se apodera del aire, existe un reino perdido donde el pasado y el presente se entrelazan. Es un lugar donde resuenan los ecos de épocas olvidadas, donde los no cumplidos y los olvidados vagan sin rumbo, y donde lo invisible se manifiesta de las formas más escalofriantes. 100 Historias de Fantasmas: Reales y Escalofriantes es una invitación inquietante a este mundo espectral. Este libro combina lo insólito con lo inexplicable, presentando una variada colección de encuentros sobrenaturales de distintas partes del mundo—desde China hasta Estados Unidos, de Perú a Londres. Son hechos reales que desafían toda lógica y ponen a prueba nuestra comprensión de la realidad. Entre estas páginas conocerás espíritus que deambulan por antiguos castillos y campos de batalla ensangrentados, fantasmas que acechan casas suburbanas y calles urbanas, y apariciones que se manifiestan en los lugares más inesperados. Los encuentros van desde lo levemente perturbador hasta lo absolutamente aterrador, con poltergeists juguetones y espectros sedientos de venganza. Cada relato ofrece una mirada a un mundo donde lo ordinario y lo extraordinario se cruzan, y donde los vivos y los muertos coexisten en un delicado equilibrio. Así que pasa la página y deja que comience el viaje. Pero cuidado: una vez que entres al mundo de lo sobrenatural, puede que no haya vuelta atrás. Los espíritus que habitan estas páginas han estado esperando contar sus historias… y han estado esperando a alguien como tú para escucharlas.

Noun+Noun Compounds in Italian

This book investigates one concrete compounding pattern in present-day Italian within a larger overview of Italian compounding. Various accounts and classifications of Noun + Noun combinations in Italian are reviewed, with special focus on the status of the lexical integrity hypothesis. The author sets out to propose an integrated approach to the Noun + Noun compounding pattern, rigorously based on large representative data sets that were extracted from the Italian web corpus ItWaC as both automatically and manually post-processed frequency lists. On the basis of such data, it is aimed to show the behaviour of various subtypes of Noun + Noun compounds. Starting out with the Bisetto-Scalise classification, the author carefully examines the status of coordinate compounds, ATAP compounds (i.e., the group comprising attributive and appositive structures) and subordinate compounds (comprising verbal-nexus and grounding compounds), discussing both theoretical and empirical implications of this classification scheme. Moreover, the original Bisetto-Scalise model is supplemented with further classification levels in order to capture specific compounding types such as relational (i.e. inherently trinominal) compounds. A major merit of the present study lies in the quantitative dimension of the data it deals with. In light of this data, the author emphasizes the gradient nature of the traditional dichotomy between syntax and compounding. The book will thus appeal not only to the linguists interested specifically in Italian word-formation, but also to a larger community of scholars who seek a more general view of the word-formation phenomena.
