Barack Obama news in Russian and Spanish

Sunday, October 26, 2008

Russian-language title of The Audacity of Hope. The Latin title is Audacia Spei, BTW.


Two pieces of news on Barack Obama in other languages, namely Russian and Spanish:

The US presidential race has made an unexpected arrival in Russia this week, but while John McCain's ill-addressed request for funding from Russia's UN mission has earned international scorn, the arrival of a Russian translation of Barack Obama's book "The Audacity of Hope" (Derzost' Nadezhdy) gives readers an insight into the ideals of the man who hopes to lead the United States...The Russian version of the book hit the shelves earlier this week and costs 260 rubles.
260 rubles = about $10.

And:
  • Here's an article on some Spanish-language endorsements for Barack Obama in Nevada. As far as I know Editor & Publisher doesn't include Spanish language endorsements in their endorsement count. Another page here shows that he's picked up the endorsement of Los Angeles’ La Opinión and New York’s El Diario/La Prensa. I'll update the page if I can find an overall list of endorsements in Spanish for both candidates.
