Poetischer Widerstand im Estado Novo

Der Estado Novo vertrat eine geschichtspolitische Vision von Portugal, der sich eine ganze Generation von SchriftstellerInnen widersetzte. Aufgrund der staatlichen Zensur trug sich die Auseinandersetzung mit dem Regime in literarischen Texten in einer Weise aus, die oft dazu geführt hat, dass diese Texte als unpolitisch und von der historischen Realität des Landes abgewandt wahrgenommen wurden. Auch wenn evident war, dass hier keine regimetreue Literatur entstanden ist, steht in der wissenschaftlichen Auseinandersetzung mit der portugiesischen Literatur des 20. Jahrhunderts eine philologische Entschlüsselung der Verfahren dieser AutorInnen noch aus. Die Dissertationsschrift von Diana Gomes Ascenso bietet eine Neubewertung des Werks von Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen (1919 - 2004) als politische Poesie des vermeintlich Unpolitischen. In drei Hauptkapiteln werden drei verschiedene Modi der Kritik herausgearbeitet, die verdeutlichen, wie Sophia Andresen die poetische Form als Form geistigen Widerstands in einer bis heute zutiefst beeindruckenden Konsequenz umgesetzt hat.

A groundbreaking look at marriage, one of the most basic and universal of all human institutions, which reveals the emotional, physical, economic, and sexual benefits that marriage brings to individuals and society as a whole. The Case for Marriage is a critically important intervention in the national debate about the future of family. Based on the authoritative research of family sociologist Linda J. Waite, journalist Maggie Gallagher, and a number of other scholars, this book’s findings dramatically contradict the anti-marriage myths that have become the common sense of most Americans. Today a broad consensus holds that marriage is a bad deal for women, that divorce is better for childr...

Forms of unfreedom in the Medieval Mediterranean

Dependence and loss of freedom – be it partial or total – go hand in hand. During the Middle Ages, people were bonded together through a wide variety of ties that limited their freedom in different ways and to variable degrees.This volume explores these forms of unfreedom. Focusing on both the Iberian Peninsula and the Mediterranean from the eighth century until the fifteenth, the contributors focus on aspects such as transformations of terminology, implementation of different legal traditions across time and space, establishment and dissolution of bonds, and details of everyday life attached to these situations. Looking at the “ties that bind”, that is, the obligations acquired and everyday implications of the establishment of that dependence, this volume reflects on concepts such as captivity, slavery, manumission and serfdom, among others, and their appearance in the sources.

Health literacy in practice requires the development of techniques that ensure that the patient can better access information, understand its content, know how to use this information, and make better health decisions. If the patient makes better health decisions, there are immediate reflexes in health outcomes. The aim is to develop an approach based on the commitment and creation of an atmosphere of trust that reduces uncertainty, anxiety, and embarrassment based on a process of assertive, clear, and positive communication (ACP model). The Handbook of Research on Assertiveness, Clarity, and Positivity in Health Literacy brings the consolidation of knowledge, strategies, and techniques to i...

Besides love, money and health are the most valuable human yearnings. Therefore, blockchain technology is paramount: a new foundation of confidence for human valuable transactions. Like information sharing was catalyzed on the pre-blockchain internet, transactions are now triggered on the new internet of value. In this second digital inflection point, economic media encompasses value beside information, and individuals can privately transact digital assets for the first time in history. Decentralized but structured organizations running on blockchain networks reduce transaction costs and are particularly competitive insofar as they guarantee data authenticity, confidentiality, and integrity,...

Concepts and Applications of Stem Cell Biology

This textbook will support graduate students with learning materials rich in the basic concepts of stem cell biology, in its most widespread and updated perspective. The chapters are conceived in a way for students to understand the meaning of pluripotency, the definition of embryonic stem cells and the formation of multicellular structures such as organoids together with the underlying principles of their epigenetic. This textbook also discusses adult stem cells and the potential use of these cells, in particular neural, mesenchymal, and several types of muscular cells, in biomedical research and clinical applications. This textbook represents a vital complement to the text on Essential Current Concepts of Stem Cell Biology, also published in the Learning Materials in Biosciences textbook series.

This compendium is intended to be the first updated review of most of the clinical situations that cancer patients may present. It identifies the clinical picture and the therapeutic orientation, with the degrees of recommendation and evidence, as well as the direct bibliographic reference for each statement. We took a multidisciplinary approach, with the collaboration of 261 authors from 9 countries, 45 hospitals and 19 medical and non-medical specialties. This compendium (IOC 2022) is the result of the effort and innovative spirit of its authors, will be updated every two years. The first international edition of cancer care support based on real world evidence (RWE) contains all the latest news in cancer care support treatment and assigns levels of evidence and grades of recommendation so that the reader can obtain a quick impression and certainty of each of the treatments and strategies presented. The GRADE and OXFORD scales have been used for the levels of evidence.
