A partir de ahí se describen cuestiones para deshacer y rehacer, siempre desde una mirada inclusiva y basada en evidencias, proponiendo líneas de trabajo y mostrando experiencias reales exitosas.
Este libro pretende comprender el conjunto de las artes y ciencias del espectáculo, trascendiendo lo que pudiera ser específicamente teatral desde un criterio restrictivo, para abarcar también ámbitos como el circo y la danza. Sus referencias biográficas y terminológicas totalizan más de 20.000 palabras o locuciones, agrupadas en torno a numerosos conceptos y en particular a los siguientes: actor, argot teatral, autor, baile, comedia, director, drama, escenario, espectáculo, iluminación, interpretación, movimientos espirituales, música, personaje, público, puesta en escena, teatro, texto, tragedia y vestuario. Caracterizada por el rigor en su elaboración, la obra centra su análisis en el conjunto de la escena mundial a lo largo de la historia, si bien se presta especial atención al teatro español, y particularmente a nuestros autores, actores y directores contemporáneos.
TELOS 121 aborda una de las cuestiones más relevantes en el pasado, el presente y el futuro. Nuestra mirada, los análisis y propuestas se dirigen siempre al mañana, pero cuando abordamos El futuro del trabajo no podemos obviar —nunca lo hacemos, en realidad— de dónde venimos y el momento que atravesamos. No se trata de si habrá o no empleo porque, como ha ocurrido en revoluciones anteriores, unos desaparecerán y otros nuevos aparecerán, sino de cómo organizaremos nuestras vidas alrededor de esas actividades que dan sentido a nuestra existencia individual y en comunidad. Asistimos a un cambio de era en el que confluyen las transformaciones tecnológicas, las energéticas y medioam...
The dairy industry usually adopts conventional methods of processing various milk-based food products, which can destroy nutrients and minimize organoleptic qualities. An alternative approach for this is the non-conventional method of non-thermal processing techniques. Not only does this enhance the nutritional profile of the various processed products, but increases the consumer acceptability. There are some emerging non-thermal processing techniques such as pulsed light, cold plasma, high pressure processing, ultrasonic, UV pasteurization, or ozone treatments, which can be successfully employed in dairy processing industries to enhance product acceptability, safety, and quality aspects.

Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.
Time Commences in Xibalbá tells the story of a violent village crisis in Guatemala sparked by the return of a prodigal son, Pascual. He had been raised tough by a poor, single mother in the village before going off with the military. When Pascual comes back, he is changed—both scarred and “enlightened” by his experiences. To his eyes, the village has remained frozen in time. After experiencing alternative cultures in the wider world, he finds that he is both comforted and disgusted by the village’s lingering “indigenous” characteristics.
