Carlos Martí Arís e i suoi eteronimi. Vocazione all'anonimo
This research enquires into the investigating perspective of Carlos Marti Arias. To this effect his privileged field of action is framed, more concretely the articulated link that is established in architecture between theory and practice, covering also the various incursions in the world of art and human production in general, all of which turns architectonic project into a complex disciplinary field. However, the approach to his figure is instrumental, this is, it is considered as the key which allows the entrance into an articulated cultural environment which, if on one side it coincides with his town Barcelona, on the other side it transcends it thanks to those " bridges of knowledge" th...

José MartÃ, the United States, and the Marxist Interpretation of Cuban History
This brief volume is an eloquent statement on the meaning of Jose Marti's thought as well as on how his thought has been harnessed to the needs of ideology in present-day Cuba. Hence, Jose Marti, the United States and the Marxist Interpretation of Cuban History should quite properly be viewed as a contribution to the sociology of knowledge, and the political processing of the literature. Professor Ripoll's volume gives special attention to Marti's writings on the United States: without sparing the colonialist and annexationist currents of the times, Marti in his writing demonstrated a full and balanced sense of pluralist currents in the United States. The author sees Marti, in his desire for redemption, as a truer socialist and revolutionary than those who seek to cloak themselves in his words. Because Marti believed freedom to be indispensable for the advancement of society, efforts to hitch Marti to a single ideological post are considered futile.

On Becoming Cuban
With this masterful work, Louis A. Perez Jr. transforms the way we view Cuba and its relationship with the United States. On Becoming Cuban is a sweeping cultural history of the sustained encounter between the peoples of the two countries and of the ways that this encounter helped shape Cubans' identity, nationality, and sense of modernity from the early 1850s until the revolution of 1959. Using an enormous range of Cuban and U.S. sources--from archival records and oral interviews to popular magazines, novels, and motion pictures--Perez reveals a powerful web of everyday, bilateral connections between the United States and Cuba and shows how U.S. cultural forms had a critical influence on the development of Cubans' sense of themselves as a people and as a nation. He also articulates the cultural context for the revolution that erupted in Cuba in 1959. In the middle of the twentieth century, Perez argues, when economic hard times and political crises combined to make Cubans painfully aware that their American-influenced expectations of prosperity and modernity would not be realized, the stage was set for revolution.
Consciousness and Cognition
What were the circumstances that led to the development of our cognitive abilities from a primitive hominid to an essentially modern human? The answer to this question is of profound importance to understanding our present nature. Since the steep path of our cognitive development is the attribute that most distinguishes humans from other mammals, this is also a quest to determine human origins. This collection of outstanding scientific problems and the revelation of the many ways they can be addressed indicates the scope of the field to be explored and reveals some avenues along which research is advancing. Distinguished scientists and researchers who have advanced the discussion of the mind...
