By highlighting features common to the Gothic classics and the works of Adelaida García Morales, this monograph aims to put the Gothic on the map in Hispanic Studies. The Gothic as a literary mode extending well beyond its first proponents in eighteenth-century England is well established in English studies but has been strangely under-used by Hispanists. Now Abigail Lee Six uses it as the paradigm through which to analyse the novels of Adelaida García Morales; while not suggesting that every novel by this author is a classic Gothic text, she reveals certain constants in the work that can be related to the Gothic, evenin novels which one might not classify as such.

Este libro es una guía básica sobre la nueva profesión de internet: el content curator, el especialista encargado de diseñar, llevar a cabo y evaluar el sistema de content curation. El sistema empieza con la búsqueda y selección de información y sigue con la aportación de valor mediante la caracterización y difusión de dicha información, todo ello respondiendo a unos objetivos determinados. El libro realiza una aproximación al sistema de content curation, tanto desde un punto de vista teórico como práctico, con el objetivo de guiar al content curator y ofrecer un buen punto de partida a cualquier persona interesada en el tema. Los autores desarrollan el método que han denominado de las 4 S de la content curation: search, select, sense making, share.
El concepto de intranet social aparece en 2009 en los países anglosajones influenciado por la evolución de internet y la eclosión de la web social, en la que los ciudadanos conectados han ido imponiendo una nueva mentalidad que se extiende también en el interior de sus lugares de trabajo. Los profesionales, cada vez más móviles, sociales y prosumidores, han sido uno de los motores de esta nueva dimensión del trabajo en la que se van imponiendo formas de comunicación más democráticas, estructuras de mando más cooperativas y en las que se otorga un mayor valor al conocimiento. La intranet social supone dotar a las intranets tradicionales del valor añadido que otorgan las relaciones y conexiones con otras personas. Es una apuesta hacia la senda de las organizaciones inteligentes e interconectadas.
