īorn at Beaumont Palace, Oxford, John was the fifth son and last of eight children born to Henry II of England and Eleanor of Aquitaine. He was a Plantagenet or Angevin king.Īpart from entering popular legend as the enemy of the fictional Robin Hood, he is also known for acquiescing to the nobility and signing Magna Carta, a document that limited his power and that is popularly regarded as an early first step in the evolution of modern democracy. John acquired the nicknames of "Lackland" ( French : Sans Terre) for his lack of an inheritance as the youngest son and for his loss of territory to France, and of "Soft-sword" for his alleged military ineptitude. He succeeded to the throne as the younger brother of King Richard I (known in later times as "Richard the Lionheart"). John ( 24 December 1166 - 19 October 1216 ) reigned as King of England from 6 April 1199, until his death. Beall, Baltimore, 2008, Line 29A-26 has b.

Me parece una comunidad muy atrayente y luchadora. Quizá porque habla de la comunidad armenia en Estados Unidos después del "éxodo" que emprendieron después del genocidio de principios de siglo XX y que se silenció arteramente. Por eso digo que en este caso me arriesgué y lo disfruté. Quiero decir, que aunque no suelo leer las contras, alguna información me ha llegado, ya sea sobre el autor, ya sea sobre el contenido, ya sea sobre la importancia de la obra (en el contexto actual o en contextos pasados). Mi forma de escoger lecturas no atiende a un criterio fijo y en pocas ocasiones me lanzo sin tener información previa de lo que voy a leer. No tanto en el cómo leo sino en el qué leo.
Nunca he llegado a pensar mucho en mi comportamiento como lector. Este es un libro con el que me arriesgué.
