Les altres infàncies
Les altres infàncies. Imatges de la infància en els dibuixos animats és un text escrit des del convenciment de la importància d’analitzar la pròpia mirada perquè, aquesta, condiciona el lloc que ocupem per a l’altre i, per tant, allò que li oferim. Aquest objectiu passa per detectar categories imposades en l’imaginari social que determinen uns tipus d’accions i assignen destins als infants. Utilitzant el recurs dels dibuixos animats i mitjançant una anàlisi de caire genealògic, es pretén analitzar com certes mirades envers alguns elements que es consideren fonamentals poden afectar a les pràctiques educatives i provocar conseqüentment diferents efectes. D’aquesta manera, es procura establir una coherència entre el que pensem que cal fer i allò que fem realment amb les nostres accions educatives en la pràctica professional com a educadors i educadores socials. Construir doncs, una mena de mirall on anar sometent les pròpies reflexions a anàlisis i qüestionaments continus, des dels quals poder també anar plantejant les pròpies propostes.
Converso Non-Conformism in Early Modern Spain
This book examines the effects of Jewish conversions to Christianity in late medieval Spanish society. Ingram focuses on these converts and their descendants (known as conversos) not as Judaizers, but as Christian humanists, mystics and evangelists, who attempt to create a new society based on quietist religious practice, merit, and toleration. His narrative takes the reader on a journey from the late fourteenth-century conversions and the first blood purity laws (designed to marginalize conversos), through the early sixteenth-century Erasmian and radical mystical movements, to a Counter-Reformation environment in which conversos become the advocates for pacifism and concordance. His account ends at the court of Philip IV, where growing intolerance towards Madrid’s converso courtiers is subtly attacked by Spain’s greatest painter, Diego Velázquez, in his work, Los Borrachos. Finally, Ingram examines the historiography of early modern Spain, in which he argues the converso reform phenomenon continues to be underexplored.
Divination on stage
Magicians, necromancers and astrologers are assiduous characters in the European golden age theatre. This book deals with dramatic characters who act as physiognomists or palm readers in the fictional world and analyses the fictionalisation of physiognomic lore as a practice of divination in early modern Romance theatre from Pietro Aretino and Giordano Bruno to Lope de Vega, Calderón de la Barca and Thomas Corneille.
La educación social en territorios periféricos
En este texto pretendemos reflexionar sobre la importancia que la educación social tiene en el desarrollo de los territorios periféricos, para colaborar en la transformación de estos entornos, en zonas de prácticas ciudadanas, así como posibilitar en las personas que lo habitan, una conciencia crítica que les haga ser conscientes de su posición en las sociedades; y es que esta posición no es casual, simplemente se ha tratado de segregar a ciertas poblaciones del resto de la sociedad y, esta separación, se ha realizado a través de la estructura territorial, marcando fronteras artificiales en ciertos lugares, pobres y deprimidos, para separar a las personas que allí habitan del rest...
Utopias in Latin America
Latin America has historically been a fertile ground where utopian projects, movements, and experiments could take root and thrive. Each of the thirteen authors in this collective volume address a particular case or specific aspect of Latin American utopianism from colonial times to the present day. The America that the Spanish and Portuguese discovered became, from the sixteenth century onwards, a space in which it was possible to imagine the widest variety of forms of human coexistence. Utopias in Latin America reconsiders the sense and understanding of utopias in various historical frames: the discovery of indigenous cultures and their natural environments; the foundation of new towns and cities in a vast colonial territory; the experimental communities of nineteenth-century utopian socialists and European exiled intellectuals; and the innovative formulae that attempts to get beyond twentieth-century capitalism.
Connecting Worlds and People
In recent decades historians have emphasized just how dynamic and varied early modern Europe was. Previously held notions of monolithic and static societies have now been replaced with a model in which new ideas, different cultures and communities jostle for attention and influence. Building upon the concept of interaction, the essays in this volume develop and explore the idea with specific reference to the ways in which diasporas could act as translocal societies, connecting worlds and peoples that may not otherwise have been linked. The volume looks at the ways in which diasporas or diasporic groups, such as the Herrnhuters, the Huguenots, the Quakers, Jews, the Mennonites, the Moriscos a...
Literary Self-Translation in Hispanophone Contexts - La autotraducción literaria en contextos de habla hispana
This edited book contributes to the growing field of self-translation studies by exploring the diversity of roles the practice has in Spanish-speaking contexts of production on both sides of the Atlantic. Part I surveys the presence of self-translation in contemporary Indigenous literatures in Spanish America, with a focus on Mexico and the Mapuche poetry of Chile and Argentina. Part II proposes to incorporate self-translation into the history of Spanish-American literatures- including its relation with colonial multilingual-translation practices, the transfers it allowed between the French and Spanish-American avant-gardes, and the insertion it offered for exiled Republicans in Mexico. Part...
Bioactive Polysaccharides
Bioactive Polysaccharides offers a comprehensive review of the structures and bioactivities of bioactive polysaccharides isolated from traditional herbs, fungi, and seaweeds. It describes and discusses specific topics based on the authors' rich experience, including extraction technologies, practical techniques required for purification and fractionation, strategies and skills for elucidating the fine structures, in-vitro and in-vivo protocols, and methodologies for evaluating the specific bioactivities, including immune-modulating activities, anti-cancer activities, anti-oxidant activities, and others. This unique book also discusses partial structure-functionality (bioactivities) relations...
Orphans of Petrarch
"Drawing on critics ranging from Bakhtin and Curtius to Harold Bloom and Maria Corti, Orphans of Petrarch offers extended discussions of these major poets, and a net exposition of the development of Spanish Renaissance poetics, from the point of view of modern critical theory. Contributing to the discussion about imitation and belatedness, and grounded in both philology and cultural theory, it is the first book to integrate the "Spanish difference" into an understanding of Renaissance lyric as a European phenomenon."--BOOK JACKET.
