Summary

Explore la cautivadora vida de Mao Zedong Mao Zedong es reconocido, junto con Chiang Kai-Shek y Sun Yat-Sen, como una de las figuras más influyentes de la historia China moderna. Su control político de la nación declinó durante sus últimos años, pero permaneció como el presidente del Partido Comunista de China desde su fundación en 1949 hasta el día en que murió (9 de septiembre de 1976). Como el padre fundador de la República Popular China y el eje central de uno de los cultos de personalidad más intensos del mundo, el alcance de su influencia no se puede subestimar. Hoy, el legado de Mao puede inspirar tanto una devoción servil, como una condena abierta o cierto temor a mirar muy de cerca los aspectos negativos de su legado. El hecho de que su influencia se haya extendido durante casi tres décadas también hace difícil llegar a una comprensión holística de su impacto en China. El punto de vista oficial del Partido Comunista de China, popularizado por Deng Xiaoping, es que Mao estuvo un “70% correcto y un 30% equivocado”.  Esta biografía detallará el extraordinario viaje de Mao, de ser el hijo de un campesino a ser uno de los más grandes - y altamente polarizadores - líderes de la historia moderna. Su objetivo es proporcionar una mejor comprensión de quién fue Mao como persona y tratar de desentrañar los rasgos de su personalidad y las experiencias personales que formaron su visión del mundo y determinaron sus acciones. Algunos de los temas abordados en este libro son:   Primeros años Despertar político Pekín Cuatro de mayo y el Movimiento de la Nueva Cultura Los dolores de crecimiento del Partido Comunista de China La Expedición del Norte Crecimiento de su popularidad y apoyo de las masas La Gran Marcha La República Popular China El Gran Salto Adelante La Revolución Cultural ¿Qué representó el maoísmo? ¡Y mucho más! Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Mastering Spanish Words

Summary

How many words do we use when we speak? According to some publications, while a two-year-old baby uses around 200 words, a beginner in any language needs around 2,000 to communicate. And an expert user can employ up to 40,000! But knowing words and their meanings is hardly enough. If you want to learn Spanish to actually use it, be it for traveling, working, or studying, you need to really master your vocabulary. You need to know synonyms, you need to know which prepositions are used next to which verbs, and how words change their meaning in different contexts. In this audiobook, we offer a comprehensive list of the 3,000 most frequent words of the Spanish language, according to the Real Academia Española, Spain's official royal institution dedicated to the Spanish language. We did not just include the words and their meanings, but also eventual indications for you to understand the use of the word since translations are otherwise incomplete. For example, we indicate if it’s a masculine or feminine word, if it’s a plural word, and if it belongs to a verbal tense that does not translate literally into English. Additionally, we indicate if the word has more than one meaning, so you can avoid confusion. And, of course, for each word we include a practical example - a sentence that, in a few words, tells a story and helps you understand how the word is used in the real Spanish-speaking world. By the time you’re finished with this audiobook, your vocabulary will be comparably better, richer, and wider. Ready to give it a go? Start right away!
