舞动西班牙英文导游词 In 1492， under the rule of King Ferdinand II and Queen Isabella I， Jews， Gypsies， and Moors were expelled from Spain. Along with native Andalucians ， they were forced to take refuge in the Andalucian mountains. There they could escape the Inquisition ， which threatened their very survival. While in exile， the people of these distinct cultures together conceived a new and exciting musical art form ， characterized by pride ， passion ， and defiant dignity. It incorporated acoustic-guitar playing ， singing ， chanting ， dancing ， and staccato hand-clapping. This bold ， provocative，1 and unique style was named“Flamenco”. Considerable debate surrounds the origins of the word“Flamenco” 。 Some believe it simply means“Flemish” 。 Others contend2 that it comes from the Dutch word ， vlaming ， meaning “fiery“ ， ” flaming“ ， or”brightly colored“ 。 Others trace it back to the Arabic felag mengu ， which refers to all persecuted people who fled to the mountains to escape the Inquisition. The intensity of Flamenco inspires a sense of magic ， and evokes3 from its audience an intense reaction. The staccato of the dancer’s heels against the floor ， and the sharp bursts of clapping punctuate the singer’s haunting wail. The bright ， swirling dresses add to the spectacle ， and elicit4 cries of encouragement from the spectators. These elements， along with the musical virtuosity of the guitarists， combine to create a performance which， once seen， is never forgotten.——by Randy Peters 公元 1492 年，在国王费迪南二世和王后伊莎贝拉一世的统治下，犹太人、吉普赛人和摩尔人被逐出西班牙，旅游英语《导游辞:舞动西班牙--弗拉门戈》。这些人跟当地的安达卢西亚人一起，被迫在安达卢西亚山区避难。在那儿，...
