Antonio Pamies Bertrán, Wiaczesław Nowikow
La selección modal es una de las mayores dificultades para los aprendices extranjeros de espanol, siendo el dominio teórico y practico del subjuntivo motivo de grandes problemas para quienes no tienen este modo en su lengua materna. Este es el caso del idioma polaco. De ahi la doble finalidad de este estudio: describir el funcionamiento de los modos verbales desde las perspectivas sintactica, semantica y pragmaticodiscursiva y ofrecer a los lectores una herramienta teórica que facilitaria el aprendizaje practico de los modos espanoles, sobre todo del subjuntivo. Una de las aportaciones mas importantes de este libro, desde el punto de vista de la teoria lingUistica general, es el analisis contrastivo de los modos verbales espanoles y polacos.

Mabinogion Cztery gałęzie. The Mabinogion Four Branches of the Mabinogi
Nieznany
Książka w dwóch wersjach językowych: polskiej i angielskiej. A dual Polish-English language edition. Mabinogion. Cztery gałęzie Mabinogi. Przełożył Andrzej Sarwa. The Mabinogion. Four Branches of the Mabinogi. Translated by Lady Charlotte Guest Prastare celtyckie sagi (walijskie). Jest to pierwszy pełny polski przekład oryginalnego tekstu pierwszej części Mabinogionu. Mabinogion. Cztery gałęzie Mabinogi zawierający cztery opowieści to pierwsza część cyklu walijskich sag. Sagi te powstały głównie w średniowieczu (a jak sugeruje ich treść, częściowo sięgają także do tradycji epoki żelaza). Tytuł Mabinogion nadała zbiorowi jego pierwsza tłumaczka na język angielski lady Charlotte Guest w roku 1849. Znaczenie i pochodzenie walijskiego słowa mabinogi nie jest znane do dziś. Pełny cykl Mabinogionu został zapisany w dwóch średniowiecznych rękopisach znanych jako Biała Księga z Rhydderch (w języku walijskim Llyfr Gwyn Rhydderch) z roku około 1350 i Czerwona Księga z Hergest (po walijsku Llyfr Coch Hergest) datowana na lata 13821410. Oprócz tego fragmenty poszczególnych opowiadań znane są także z innych źródeł datowanych na wiek XIII. Uważa się jednak, że pierwotnie powstały między rokiem 1000 a 1110. Mabinogion oraz sagi irlandzkie dostarczają nam informacji na temat staroceltyckich bogów, wierzeń i obyczajów. The Mabinogion (Welsh pronunciation: [mabnjn]) is the title given to a collection of eleven prose stories collated from medieval Welsh manuscripts. The tales draw on pre-Christian Celtic mythology, international folktale motifs, and early medieval historical traditions. While some details may hark back to older Iron Age traditions, each of these tales is the product of a highly developed medieval Welsh narrative tradition, both oral and written. Lady Charlotte Guest in the mid 19th century was the first to publish English translations of the collection, popularising the name ""Mabinogion"" at the same time.

Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann
Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann: Majorat - Das Majorat - Le Majorat - tekst: polski / deutsch / français. Przełożył Józef Pracki. Traduit par Henry Egmont. Książka w 3 wersjach językowych polskiej, niemieckiej i francuskiej. Fragmenty tekstu tego znakomitego, po mistrzowsku napisanego powiadania z dreszczykiem: Niedaleko od brzegów morza Bałtyckiego stoi zamek dziedziczny rodziny Her...., który zowią Her... burg. Okolica jest surowa i pustynna. Zaledwie tu i ówdzie na piaszczystym gruncie dostrzeżesz garści trawy. Zamiast tych ogrodów, jakie zazwyczaj zdobią siedziby pańskie, ponad gołym murem widać tylko jakiś nędzny gaj sosnowy, którego żałoba ponura i nieustanna zda się lekceważyć uśmiechniętą szatę wiosny. W tym lasku, zamiast wesołego świergotu ptasząt, słychać tylko monotonne krakanie kruków albo świst mew zapowiedź burzy. Dem Gestade der Ostsee unfern liegt das Stammschloß der Freiherrlich von R..schen Familie, R..sitten genannt. Die Gegend ist rauh und öde, kaum entsprießt hin und wieder ein Grashalm dem bodenlosen Triebsande, und statt des Gartens, wie er sonst das Herrenhaus zu zieren pflegt, schließt sich an die nackten Mauern nach der Landseite hin ein dürftiger Föhrenwald, dessen ewige, düstre Trauer den bunten Schmuck des Frühlings verschmäht, und in dem statt des fröhlichen Jauchzens der zu neuer Lust erwachten Vögelein nur das schaurige Gekrächze der Raben, das schwirrende Kreischen der sturmverkündenden Möwen widerhallt. Non loin des bords de la mer Baltique est situé le vieux château seigneurial des barons de R*** quon appelle R....sitten. La contrée qui lentoure est déserte et sauvage. peine voit-on verdir par-ci par-l quelques brins dherbe au milieu de cette plage couverte de sable amoncelé; la place dun jardin dagrément, tel quil sen trouve de contigu partout ailleurs une habitation de ce genre, un mur nu, élevé du côté des terres, sert dappui un méchant bois de pins attristé dun deuil éternel. Jamais sa sombre verdure ne revtit la robe émaillée du printemps; et ses échos, au lieu de résonner des joyeux concerts des petits oiseaux célébrant leurs plaisirs au lever de laurore, ne sont frappés que du croassement sinistre des corbeaux, et des cris de la mouette précurseurs de lorage.

George Bernard Shaw
“Man and Superman” is a play by George Bernard Shaw, an Irish playwright who became the leading dramatist of his generation, and in 1925 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. Man and Superman is a four-act drama written by George Bernard Shaw. The series was written in response to a call for Shaw to write a play based on the Don Juan theme. Mr. Whitefield has recently died, and his will indicates that his daughter Ann should be left in the care of two men, Roebuck Ramsden and John Tanner. Ramsden, a venerable old man, distrusts John Tanner, an eloquent youth with revolutionary ideas, whom Shaw's stage directions describe as "prodigiously fluent of speech, restless, excitable (mark the snorting nostril and the restless blue eye, just the thirty-secondth of an inch too wide open), possibly a little mad". In spite of what Ramsden says, Ann accepts Tanner as her guardian, though Tanner doesn't want the position at all.
