What Does This Spanish Essay Sample by Gobierno Viejar Mean?
What Does This Spanish Essay Sample by Gobierno Viejar Mean?A Spanish essay sample by Gobierno Viejar, written in 2020, seems to be in dire need of updating for a modern audience. The well-educated Spanish speaker writing the essay was not able to catch up with his readers with respect to his writing, and with the lack of grammar or spelling errors made for a less than enjoyable reading experience.The initial sentence of the sample reads as if it is meant to convey a romantic longing or statement about a person who is at the 'highest point of love'. The second sentence is meant to highlight the natural wonder of the desert and its supposed beauty.The third sentence shows a taste of Viejar's ego and pride, as he feels entitled to speak for the reader. It is as if he is attempting to tell the reader that the best poems are those written by him. In an attempt to elude the reader and get them to skip down the page, the writer then proceeds to describe the circumstances that led to the su ccess of his book by describing how he went through the process of 'writing for two people'.All this information is all right, but then the factual information is not to the satisfaction of the reader. At one point, the writer describes some facts that are disputed by other authors and students of Spanish. He claims that Viejar did not write the dissertation because he was rejected by nine Spanish universities. Apparently, this is a fact, however this fact is contradicted by two other writers who published Viejar's dissertation at the time that Viejar's father died.The author tells us that Viejar was the best choice, not because he was the best qualified, but because he was born in this country. Of course, the author could have simply used the word 'born' instead of 'qualified', but since he decided to enter this English class in away that would make it seem like the reader of the essay can relate to the character of the author, he went overboard and wrote the phrase 'born here'.The author also states that in this English class, Viejar was a troublemaker and a little bit dangerous. He implies that Viejar made life difficult for the students, which is not true; in fact, he also states that there were no fights, insults, threats or even direct insults from the students, but that Viejar was only keeping them in line.After this conversation in English, the author goes on to ask the reader to come with him to the desert where he will describe the culture and history of the people in their native language. This part of the essay is quite interesting because the author seems to be implying that if we understand the language of the people, we can understand the people and their culture better. However, this part of the piece did not do much for me and I had difficulty connecting with the author.If you are looking for a good Spanish essay sample, I would recommend that you look no further than Gobierno Viejar's dissertation, which he created for the class in the first place. The writing was good and Viejar was clearly passionate about the subject matter. It would have been nice if he would have gone into some depth with regards to the historical figures that were not documented at the time of the author's birth, but there is no way that I can change that.
