Re-imagining Teaching Improvement
This research-based book focuses on re-imagining how to improve pedagogical and environmental approaches to teaching and teacher education, across the early childhood to higher education sectors. It motivates educators, academics and researchers to stimulate thinking around the use of research to transform professional teaching and teacher education in imaginative ways. It showcases insights into the design and implementation of successful approaches to teaching improvement at the direct level of practice. This book provides a clear ‘how to’ approach that identifies the general principles by which teaching improvement can be planned, monitored and evaluated, as well as guidelines for contextualising these principles within specific educational levels and situations.
The Crisis of Argentine Capitalism
At the end of World War II, Argentina was the most industrialized nation in Latin America, with a highly urbanized, literate, and pluralistic society. But over the past four decades, the country has suffered political and economic crises of increasing intensity that have stalled industrial growth, sharpened class conflict, and led to long periods of military rule.

Góngora's Soledades and the Problem of Modernity
Góngora's Soledades, the major lyric poem of the Spanish Baroque. Combining philological rigor with a capacity to engage the most contemporary transatlantic and comparatist concerns, this work situates Luis de Góngora's Soledades within the problematic evolution of Hispanic modernity. As well as offering an insightful analysis of the Soledades as an expression of the Baroque crisis in all its facets -epistemological, ontological, cultural and historical - the author reads the fragmented lyric subject of Gongorist poetics back against Renaissance precursors [Rojas' Celestina and the poetry of Boscán and Garcilaso] and in anticipation of the truncated and isolated subject of modernity. The study concludes with an examination of the interaction between the legacies of Gongorism and French Symbolism in the work of selected poets of the Latin American Vanguard [Gorostiza, Paz and Vallejo]. CRYSTAL ANNE CHEMRIS is Visiting Assistant Professorof Spanish at the University of Iowa.
