When something is written down in a manuscript or a book, there is a standard against which other versions can be compared or corrected. Since the emergence of writing, political, social and religious institutions have privileged written records over oral memory and tradition. This has had a huge influence on the survival and evolution of the Scots language. Having lost its role as a contemporary written language in the 17th century, Scots continued to thrive as a spoken tung. This led to Scots often being associated with aspects of culture that were not sanctioned by authority, or explicitly dissident. To gie tung or ‘raise your voice’ could be seen as anti-authority, an expression of cultural resistance and human freedom. Consequently, people were told to curb or haud their tungs. And the forms of punishment administered by local courts included restraining the tongue, as for example with a Scold’s Bridle.

    TEMPORADA 2000/2001 PRESENTACIÓN Es imprescindible que empiece la presentación de esta memoria correspondiente a la tempora- da 2000 / 2001 con un emocionado recuerdo a D. Antonio Baró Armengol, a cuyo cargo estuvo el mando del fútbol profesional español en estos últimos catorce años, en los cuales hemos vivido un extraordinario desarrollo de nuestra actividad y hemos asistido al éxito de nuestros clubes y S.A.D. en el concierto internacional. Su talante comprensivo y negociador han marcado una lí- nea a la que no podemos ni queremos renunciar, siempre con el reto de mejorar las condiciones en las que se desenvuelve nuestra función. La sucesión de Antonio Baró significa- ba, también, un momento decisivo para la Liga Nacional de Fútbol Pro- fesional que no había vivido ningunas elecciones a lo largo de su historia. Se trataba de mantener la unidad entre todos los clubes y dar un paso al fren- te hacia los nuevos tiempos, con una organización avanzada, eficaz y preparada para dejar oír su voz en los nuevos escenarios que se plantean en el nuevo siglo. Por ello, la mayoría de nuestros clubes y S.A.D. apostaron por una presidencia profesional y a plena dedicación que supone todo un reto personal y una gran ilusión para mí y para mi equipo. Con ese orgullo y esa ilusión nos hemos puesto a trabajar inmediatamente porque el tiempo apre- mia y la LFP quiere seguir siendo el referente del fútbol profesional europeo, una cotización que 4 nos hemos ganado a pulso en estos últimos años, tión, de manera que ninguna amenaza enturbie tanto en el terreno de juego como en los campos el trabajo bien hecho.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.
