Las páginas de este libro muestran, ordenadas por obras y autores, todas las citas de textos clásicos que, en latín y griego, ofrece Quevedo en sus obras para apoyar o ilustrar sus ideas. El número y naturaleza de las mismas da cumplida cuenta de las lecturas de Quevedo. Se han localizado las ediciones que manejó o pudo manejar para cada una de las citas, se han completado las mismas, y se han corregido, en su caso, los errores o erratas que se habían mantenido. El conjunto de obras y ediciones de textos clásicos grecolatinos citados por Quevedo constituye lo que llamamos la “biblioteca clásica” de Quevedo; algunas ediciones estuvieron, con toda seguridad, en su mesa de trabajo, porque existen ejemplares que llevan su nombre y rúbrica, o en cuyos márgenes encontramos anotaciones manuscritas de don Francisco. El estudio realizado ofrece no poca luz al profundo y rico diálogo de Quevedo con sus libros y cuestiona algunas afirmaciones sobre el mismo.
The book presents various investigation into 20th-century European dictatorships, with its focus on Franco`s dictatorship and the Spanish Civil War. Francisco Franco’s dictatorship in Spain (1936/1939-1975/1978) was a modern form of authoritarianism, with a strong totalitarian period, like many other dictatorships of the time. Francoism occupies a place in history alongside other different dictatorships of its age, and a comparative analysis might prove to be a powerful tool in order to understand how, in the middle of the 20th century, such a repressive and authoritarian form of political control emerged. One of the most forgotten fascisms, which at the same time was influenced by and inf...
La presencia de incertidumbre en la mayoría de las situaciones reales requiere de modelos basados en la Teoría de la Probabilidad que permitan manejarlos con rigor. En esta línea se sitúa la Simulación Estocástica, a la que se dedica este texto y que trata de la representación de sistemas, cuya actividad se compone de elementos aleatorios interconectados. Asignaturas basadas en esta materia ya están muy consolidadas en la Facultad de Matemáticas de la UCM, en cuya docencia han estado implicados los autores, lo que les ha permitido conocer de primera mano las necesidades de aprendizaje de los alumnos.
For many humans, birds are the most fascinating group of animals and they are definitely among the best-known and studied organisms. Thanks to global citizen science data, we know that there are some 50 billion individual birds in the world at present, which is about six birds for every human on the planet. Birds have an important role as indicators of the state of the environment, giving them high public value. Human-related global impacts such as climate changes and accelerating urbanization force extant species to continuous adaptations, population modifications, or even outright extinction. This book includes nine chapters covering such topics as bird genetics, the colour of avian plumage, conservation problems, sustainable hunting, habitat disturbance, range expansion and introductions, and long-term bird population changes and challenges. A key chapter explains the genetic rules and reasons why we have continuously more bird species in the world and why we may end up having 7,000 species more than the present 11,000 species.
