English to Spanish: Frankenstein, Mary Shelley General field: Art/Literary
Source text - English I was born in Geneva, and my family is one of the most distinguished of that republic.After their wedding, my parents visited Italy, German and France. I, their eldest child, was born in Naples. I remained for several years their only child, even though my mother had much desired to have a daughter too.
When I was about five years old, my mother, accompanied by me, visited a house of poor people to give help. We found a peasant and his wife distributing a scanty meal to five hungry babies.

English to Catalan: richard lion heart General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: History
Source text - English Richard I (8 September 1157 – 6 April 1199) was King of England from 6 July 1189 until his death. He also ruled as Duke of Normandy, Duke of Aquitaine, Duke of Gascony, Lord of Ireland, Lord of Cyprus, Count of Anjou, Count of Maine, Count of Nantes, and Overlord of Brittany at various times during the same period. He was known as Cœur de Lion, or Richard the Lionheart, even before his accession, because of his reputation as a great military leader and warrior.[1] The Saracens called him Melek-Ric or Malek al-Inkitar - King of England.[2]
By age 16, Richard was commanding his own army, putting down rebellions in Poitou against his father, King Henry II.[1] Richard was a central Christian commander during the Third Crusade, effectively leading the campaign after the departure of Philip Augustus and scoring considerable victories against his Muslim counterpart, Saladin, but was unable to reconquer Jerusalem.[3]
Translation - Catalan Ricard I (nascut el 8 septembre 1157 i mort el 6 d´abril de 1199) va ser Rei d´Anglaterra des del 6 de juliol de 1189 fins la seva mort. També va reunir els títols de Duc de Normandia, Duc d´Aquitania, Duc de Gascònia, Senyor d´Irlanda, Senyor de Chipre, COmpte d´Anjou, Compte de Maine, Compte de Nantes i Baró de Britània durant diferents èpoques del mateix període. Se´l coneixia com a Ricard Cor de Lleó ja abans de la seva coronació, degut a la seva reputació de gran líder i guerrer. Els Sarracens l´anomenavan Melek-Rik o bé Malek -al-Inkitar-Rei d´Anglaterra.
Quan tenia 16 anys, va comandar el seu propi exercit, rebelant-se contra el seu pare, el Rei Enric II. Ricard va ser una peça clau del cristianisme durant la Tercera Croada, liderant el camp de batalla després de la partida de Felip August i sumant important victòries contra el seu homònim musulmà Saladí. Malgrat tot, no va arribar a reconquerir Jerusalem.
