Aceast? lucrare, rezultat al unei colabor?ri de peste cinci ani ?ntre studen?ii spanioli interesa?i de studiul limbii rom?ne ?i profesoara Dana Oprica, este un instrument care vine s? completeze cu ?i mai multe aspecte de limb? ?i de cultur? cuno?tin?ele celor care studiaz? limba rom?n? sau c?l?toresc ?n Rom?nia. Fiecare tem? e precedat? de c?teva date de interes cultural care prezint? c?teva orient?ri legate de formulele de salut, de realizarea unei vizite, de obiceiurile rom?nilor de s?rb?tori, de normele de circula?ie s.a. Ca noutate am introdus glosare de expresii ?i exclama?ii, interjec?ii ?i onomatopee, al?turi de un vocabular tabu, care nu dep??e?te limitele decen?ei ?i care ajut? la cunoa?terea unor formule familiare. Reiter?m ideea c? aceast? lucrare a fost inspirat? de necesit??ile vorbitorilor de limb? spaniol?, precum studen?ii no?tri, care au c?l?torit ?i c?l?toresc frecvent ?n Rom?nia ?i care ne-au prezentat diverse situa?ii reale pe care le-am explicat prin intermediul acestui ghid. ?ntr-una dintre vizitele f?cute ?ntr-un sat din Bistri?a, un spaniol ne-a povestit c? a fost salutat cu s?rut m?na de un grup de copii care treceau pe uli??. Am inclus aceast? situa?ie sociolingvistic? la capitolul corespunz?tor. Farmecul limbii rom?ne const? ?i ?n varietatea lexical? adecvat? diferitelor contexte sau registre de limbaj. Este trabajo, resultado de una colaboración desde hace más de cinco a?os entre los estudiantes espa?oles interesados en el estudio de la lengua rumana y la profesora Dana Oprica, es un instrumento que viene a completar con más aspectos de lengua y cultura los conocimientos de los que estudian la lengua rumana o viajan a Rumanía. Cada tema está precedida por algunos datos de interés cultural que presentan unas orientaciones relacionadas con las fórmulas de saludo, con la realización de una visita, con las costumbres de los rumanos en fiestas, con las normas de circulación, etc. Como novedad hemos introducido glosarios de expresiones y exclamaciones, interjecciones y onomatopeyas, junto a un vocabulario tabú, que no sobrepasa las límites de la decencia y que ayuda a conocer algunas fórmulas familiares. Recalcamos la idea que este trabajo fue inspirado de las necesidades de los hablantes de lengua espa?ola, como nuestros estudiantes, que han viajado y viajan frecuentemente a Rumanía y que nos han presentado varias situaciones reales que explicamos a través de esta guía. Para poner un ejemplo, durante una de sus visitas en un pueblo recóndito de Bistri?a, un espa?ol nos contó que fue saludado con s?rut m?na (le beso la mano) por un grupo de ni?os, que pasaban por la calle. Incluimos esta situación sociolingüística en el capitulo correspondiente. El encanto de la lengua rumana consta también en la variedad lexical adecuada a los diferentes contextos y registros lingüísticos.

M aplec critic spre o literatur nc insuficient cunoscut, marcat n ultimele decenii i de obsesia sau complexul Premiului Nobel. Atitudinea noastr comun fibrileaz excesiv de relativizant sau absolutizant, ncercnd s devin acionar i s provoace reaciuni ntr-un domeniu artistic universal, cu suport multilingvistic. Rmn la convingerea c exemplaritatea este efectul stranietii privit ca insolit familiaritate. Testez, cum am mai spus, fondul autohton i forma universal, n epic romneasc din secolul XX, evideniind experimentului substanial, n msura n care se integreaz n – i face sau ncearc diferena de – epic occidental. Dincolo de valoarea intrinsec, prin traducere merituoas i meritat, se va arta c literatura romn, chiar i prin proz, vine ntr-un (de)mers firesc, de vie comunicare, spre doritul i hulitul Premiu Nobel...“ – Marian Victor Buciu

Prefa?? de Andrei Vochin Pe mul?i dintre ei i-a comentat pe viu! Pe al?ii i-a v?zut juc?nd, iar despre ceilal?i a aflat citindu-i pe marii cronicari ai acelor vremuri... Avand ?n spate o experien?? de peste 2000 de meciuri comentate la cel mai ?nalt nivel, Bogdan Socol a ?ncercat s? prezinte, a?a cum a fost, via?a ?i cariera a "100 de fotbali?ti legendari". Dupa o munc? minu?ioas?, mig?loas?, dar ?i foarte frumoas?, comentatorul Digi Sport a reu?it s? adune ?n 400 de pagini 100 de pove?ti speciale ale unor oameni care au marcat nu doar istoria fotbalului, dar ?i a omenirii prin impactul lor. ?n "100 de fotbali?ti legendari", ve?i afla cum un meci de fotbal i-a salvat via?a unui viitor campion mondial, cum cel mai mare atacant italian al tuturor timpurilor se motiva cel mai bine ?naintea meciurilor petrec?nd o noapte ?ntreag? lang? ni?te doamne de companie sau care a fost primul juc?tor care a f?cut o schimbare, f?r? ca antrenorul s? mai aib? vreun cuv?nt de spus. Pe parcursul lecturii acestei c?r?i, ve?i ajunge, prin intermediul celor 100 de eroi, din epoca interbelic? p?n? ?n zilele noastre, trec?nd ?i prin dramele din preajma celui de-al Doilea R?zboi Mondial, prin comunismul care a obstruc?ionat at?tea cariere m?re?e, prin dictaturile militare din America Latin? ?i prin toat? perioada de incertitudini a R?zboiului Rece. Fotbalul a ?nvins toate problemele, ?ns?, ?i a mers mai departe cu pove?tile sale. "100 de fotbali?ti legendari" ?i cinste?te a?a cum se cuvine ?i pe cei mai mari juc?tori rom?ni care ne-au marcat existen?a, Nicolae Dobrin, Ilie Balaci, Gic? Hagi, Gic? Popescu ?i Miodrag Belodedici. Bogdan Socol a ?capturat” ?ntre coper?ile noii sale lucr?ri 100 de fotbali?ti legendari din istoria acestui sport. Nu m? pot aventura s? spun c? ei sunt cei mai mari, pentru c? ?n orice astfel de anchet? nici un argument nu este mai puternic dec?t altul. Poate a mai sc?pat unul, poate c? noi, cei mai vechi, i-am prins ?i pe al?ii juc?nd ?i i-am v?zut pe viu, motiv pentru care am putea spune c? au fost mai buni ca al?ii care au prins un loc ?n volumul de fa??. De fapt, nici nu mai conteaz?. Ceea ce va r?m?ne atunci c?nd ve?i termina de citit ?i ultima poveste din acest volum va fi sentimentul acela de prea plin de informa?ie, de pl?cut? sa?ietate, pe care orice consumator de sport o dore?te. Cu at?t mai mult unul care e ?i el prizonier pe via?? ?n aceast? minunat? ?nchisoare a pasiunii numit? fotbal. (Andrei Vochin)
