Mors certa, hora incerta. Tradiciones, representaciones y educación ante la muerte
A lo largo de la historia se han ido consolidando una serie de ideas, enfoques, imágenes y costumbres que han contribuido, sin duda, a crear o consolidar un imaginario social y colectivo en torno a la muerte, a educar, en fin, de una forma u otra, en lo que la muerte representa y supone para las personas. A pesar de la innegable certeza de que la muerte forma parte de la propia vida, la aceptación de aquélla como algo connatural se convierte en una cuestión de enorme complejidad, especialmente en el mundo contemporáneo. A partir de estas consideraciones generales nace el proyecto de elaborar el presente libro que lleva por título Mors certa, hora incerta. Tradiciones, representaciones ...
The Collected Works of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Volume 11
Volume 2 of 2. Coleridge's Shorter Works and Fragments brings together a number of substantial essays that were not long enough to require volumes to themselves, among them his "Theory of Life," "Essays on the Principles of Genial Criticism," "Treatise on Method," "Confessions of an Inquiring Spirit," "On the Passions," and "On the Prometheus of Aeschylus." To these are added more than four hundred other pieces, some of them fragementary, many of them previously unpublished, ranging in date from school essays of the early 1790s to a discussion of the bullion controversy in 1834.

A Companion to Medieval Genoa
A Companion to Medieval Genoa introduces non-specialists to recent scholarship on the vibrant and source-rich medieval history of Genoa. Focusing mostly on the eleventh to fifteenth centuries, the volume positions the city of Genoa and the Genoese within the broader history of the Italian peninsula and the Mediterranean in the Middle Ages. Thematic contributions highlight the interdependence of local, regional, and international concerns, and serve as a helpful corrective to the traditional overemphasis of Florence and Venice in the English-language historiography of medieval Italy. The volume thus offers a fresh perspective on the history of medieval Italy—as well as a handy introduction to the riches of the Genoese archives—to undergraduates, graduate students, and scholars in related fields. Contributors are Ross Balzaretti, Carrie E. Beneš, Denise Bezzina, Roberta Braccia, Luca Filangieri, George L. Gorse, Paola Guglielmotti, Thomas Kirk, Sandra Macchiavello, Merav Mack, Jeffrey Miner, Rebecca Müller, Antonio Musarra, Sandra Origone, Giovanna Petti Balbi, Valeria Polonio, Gervase Rosser, Antonella Rovere, Stefan Stantchev, and Carlo Taviani.
