Spanish & other languages in Google Print

Via today’s NYT. http://print.google.com accesses exactly the same content as http://print.google.es and delivers the occasional gem (the amount of material published is still quite small):

Here, wrote Maragall, is something living, governed by something that is dead, because death weighs more than life and drags it with it in its fall into the tomb. (Carlos Seco Serrano, Alfonso XIII y la crisis de la restauración)

No, that’s not Pasqual Maragall talking about his role in the vertiginous decline of the Catalan regional administration of which he is president (his proposed reshuffle last weekend was vetoed by all parties in the coalition, including his own), but his equally burbly nationalist grandfather, Joan.

    First savings bank opens.
    Ãbrese la primera caja de ahorros.

Josep Pla, Palafrugell (1918-9)

  • 17 de març de 1919 A Palafrugell tothom es coneix i això fa que a la superfície de la vida vilatana, al voltant dels afers del poble, siguin sempre visibles algunes passions, els mòbils d’alguns actes, la finalitat d’alguns moviments –i moltes ridiculeses, és clar.
