Introduction to the Spanish Universalist School
Introduction to the Spanish Universalist School presents the most significant authors, works, and concepts of a distinctive humanistic and scientific intellectual community, one mostly comprised of ex-Jesuits exiled to Italy at the end of the eighteenth century. The study of this corner of the Hispanic Enlightenment, marked especially by the work of Juan Andrés, Lorenzo Hervás, and Antonio Eximeno, offers contributions to the history of European sciences and letters, to the history of ideas, and to the concepts of universality and globalization.

Writing the History of the Humanities
What are the humanities? As the cluster of disciplines historically grouped together as “humanities” has grown and diversified to include media studies and digital studies alongside philosophy, art history and musicology to name a few, the need to clearly define the field is pertinent. Herman Paul leads a stellar line-up of esteemed and early-career scholars to provide an overview of the themes, questions and methods that are central to current research on the history of the nineteenth- and twentieth-century humanities. This exciting addition to the successful Writing History series will draw from a wide range of case-studies from diverse fields, as classical philology, art history, and Biblical studies, to provide a state-of-the-art overview of the field. In doing so, this ground-breaking book challenges the rigid distinctions between disciplines and show the variety of prisms through which historians of the humanities study the past.
Idea de la Ilustración: Estudios sobre la Escuela Universalista
No es en modo alguno ocioso debatir acerca de la Ilustración, sobre todo si se observa que los contenidos rutinariamente aceptados que le dan forma son incompletos o no son justamente consistentes. La deficiencia del ideario ilustrado es asumible en tanto que la razón es siempre limitada en su confrontación con la realidad, pero no es asumible cuando es resultado del ideologismo y este, por principio, se encuentra incapacitado para comprender la historia o la realidad. Si el a priori cultural requiere por principio de la no consciencia de sí mismo, sucede que en la época contemporánea, justo aquella suscitada por la Ilustración, la configuración del a priori cultural con suma facilid...
Estudios humanísticos
La extensa obra de Juan Andrés (1740-1817), el ideador de la Historia universal y comparada de las Letras y las Ciencias, forma parte y es emblema de una nutrida escuela o movimiento intelectual español e hispánico, o hispano-italiano, de extraordinario alcance intelectual que sólo en nuestro tiempo ha sido posible reconstruir y especificar. Se trata de la Escuela Universalista Española del siglo XVIII y, entre otras cosas fundamentales, de la creación de la Comparatística moderna, efectuada a partir de la tradición grecolatina y renacentista ahora reformulada con criterios de universalidad, pues únicamente una adecuada interpretación de la idea de universalidad hace posible el acc...

Plano Nacional de Leitura Biografia - Cultura e Sociedade - Dos 15 aos 18 anos - Maiores de 18 anos Em agosto de 1519, 237 homens deixaram o porto de Sevilha a bordo de cinco navios.

Francis Drake
All'origine del mondo moderno ci fu un tempo in cui un 'drago' solitario sfidò il più grande impero della terra, quello 'su cui il sole non tramontava mai'. Tra viaggi infiniti, tempeste furibonde e battaglie impreviste, il corsaro Francis Drake pose le basi della supremazia inglese sui mari e costruì una vita che già per i suoi contemporanei era leggenda. Le imprese di Francis Drake, il grande corsaro inglese al servizio della regina Elisabetta I, hanno qualcosa di veramente epico. Fu un uomo capace di sfidare da solo, dopo gli iniziali raid condotti nel Mar dei Caraibi, l'impero spagnolo in America, tra il 1577 e il 1579. Durante le navigazioni, Drake e i suoi uomini affrontarono batta...
Magellano
Un periplo infernale che David Salomoni racconta con incommensurabili dettagli: dai diari di bordo alle scorte di sedano, dalle trattative con i nativi alle condanne dei rivoltosi, dalla natura aggressiva della Patagonia alla perfida incontrollabilità dei marosi, dalle piccole colonizzazioni ai primi pinguini della storia, dalla preda di chiodi di garofano e zenzero ai repentini cambi di rotta. Giovanni Mari, "La Stampa" La verità storica non si lascia addomesticare e il ritorno ai fatti e ai documenti è indispensabile; perciò va consigliata la lettura di Magellano. Il primo viaggio intorno al mondo di David Salomoni. Andrea Canova, "Alias – il manifesto" 500 anni fa Ferdinando Magellano guidò le sue navi oltre la Patagonia, fino a un altro mare. Un viaggio senza precedenti, una storia capace di affascinare, meravigliare e commuovere.
