The Young Hitler I Knew: A Boyhood Friend Recounts Growing Up with the Future Fuhrer of the Third Reich by August Kubizek
English | January 12th, 2021 | ISBN: 1510762639 | 264 pages | True EPUB | 10.64 MB
August Kubizek met Adolf Hitler in 1904 while they competed for standing room at the opera. Kubizek describes a reticent young man, painfully shy, yet capable of bursting into hysterical fits of anger if anyone disagreed with him. But they grew close, often talking for hours on end. In 1908, they began sharing an apartment in Vienna. After being rejected twice from art school, Hitler found himself sinking into an unkind world of "constant unappeasable hunger." Kubizek did not meet his friend again until he congratulated him on becoming Chancellor of Germany. The Young Hitler I Knew tells the story of an extraordinary friendship, and gives fascinating insight into Hitler's character during these formative years.

The Welsh Language and the 1891 Census
The Welsh Language and the 1891 Census By Mari A. Williams, Gwenfair Parry
1999 | 503 Pages | ISBN: 0708315364 | PDF | 3 MB
The 1891 census was the first to collect information about the language spoken by the people of Wales, and is therefore a particularly reliable source for historians analyzing the socio-economic structure of Weslh- and English-language ability and the process of language change in Wales at the end of the 19th century. This study concentrates on 20 communities, chosen for their geographical, economic and linguistic characteristics which in 1891, accounted for about 5 per cent of the total population of Wales. For each of the selected areas, a detailed picture of the socio-economic pattern of language use has been constructed by examining a range of social variables, such as age, sex, relation to head of household, place of birth and occupation, in relation to the language spoken. Intergenerational language shift, the linguistic influence of extra-family members, and the effects of mixed marriages on language change are investigated, and particular consideration is given to migration streams and the presence of incoming strangers and returning kin.

The Translation Studies Reader
The Translation Studies Reader By Lawrence Venuti
2000 | 539 Pages | ISBN: 0415187478 | PDF | 5 MB
This book covers Translation Studies from an historical outset, laid out decade by decade. My surprise was that it did not focus only on mainstream translators, but that it also accentuates on less covered topics by other "anothologies" - such as femenist and postmodernist grounds of thought. I recomend it to all translators seeking a broad spectrum of views in a neat cronological order.
