Los Programas Universitarios Para Mayores en el Proceso de Envejecer

Aprendizaje y Envejecimiento. Este binomio resulta complejo por entender que las personas cuando llegan a una edad determinada ya lo tienen todo aprendido. Obviamente, el Aprendizaje a lo Largo de la Vida nos responde que no es asi. Ademas, el envejecimiento demografico nos senala que las personas mayores llegan a esta etapa de la vida en las mejores condiciones. El Envejecimiento Activo se ha convertido en un marco politico, cultural y social que invita a responder al desafio del aumento de poblacion mayor en Espana, Europa y el Mundo. Desde el campo educativo se ofrecen diversas posibilidades para las personas mayores que inciden directamente en su proceso de envejecer. El ser mayor no determina el aprendizaje, solo condiciona el que y como aprender. En este sentido, las universidades han sabido adaptar sus ensenanzas, disenando Programas Universitarios para Mayores que permiten a sus alumnos aprender a la vez que les abren espacios interactivos desde los que desarrollarse personal, cultural y socialmente.

The memories we return to most frequently are the most inaccurate, the least faithful to reality... This is the tragic realisation made by the narrator of Ramifications as he tries to make sense of the defining event of his childhood: the disappearance of his mother to join the Zapatista uprising that shook Mexico in 1994. Left behind with an emotionally distant father who is singularly unqualified to raise him, and an older sister who only wants to get on with being a teenager, he takes refuge in strange rituals that isolate him from his peers: favouring the left-hand side of his body, trying to tear leaves into perfect halves, obsessively shaping origami figures. Now, two decades older and...

Science on Stage in Early Modern Spain

Science on Stage in Early Modern Spain features essays by leading scholars in the fields of literary studies and the history of science, exploring the relationship between technical innovations and theatrical events that incorporated scientific content into dramatic productions. Focusing on Spanish dramas between 1500 and 1700, through the birth and development of its playhouses and coliseums and the phenomenal success of its major writers, this collection addresses a unique phenomenon through the most popular, versatile, and generous medium of the time. The contributors tackle subjects and disciplines as diverse as alchemy, optics, astronomy, acoustics, geometry, mechanics, and mathematics to reveal how theatre could be used to deploy scientific knowledge. While Science on Stage contributes to cultural and performance studies it also engages with issues of censorship, the effect of the Spanish Inquisition on the circulation of ideas, and the influence of the Eastern traditions in Spain.
