A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula
"A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula" is the second comparative history of a new subseries with a regional focus, published by the Coordinating Committee of the International Comparative Literature Association. As its predecessor for East-Central Europe, this two-volume history distances itself from traditional histories built around periods and movements, and explores, from a comparative viewpoint, a space considered to be a powerful symbol of inter-literary relations. Both the geographical pertinence and its symbolic condition are obviously discussed, when not even contested.Written by an international team of researchers who are specialists in the field, this history is the first attempt at applying a comparative approach to the plurilingual and multicultural literatures in the Iberian Peninsula. The aim of comprehensiveness is abandoned in favor of a diverse and extensive array of key issues for a comparative agenda."A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula" undermines the primacy claimed for national and linguistic boundaries, and provides a geo-cultural account of literary inter-systems which cannot otherwise be explained.
Monitoring of Marine Pollution
Many of the pollutants discharged into the sea are directly or indirectly the result of human activities. Some of these substances are biodegradable, while others are not. This study is devoted to monitoring areas of the environment. Methods assessment is based on monitoring data and an evaluation of the impact of pollution.Surveillance provides a scientific basis for standards development and application. The methodology of marine pollution control is governed by algorithms and models. A monitoring strategy should be put in place, coupled with an environmental assessment concept, through targeted research activities in areas identified at local and regional levels. This concept will make it possible to diagnose the state of "health" of these zones and consequently to correct any anomalies. Monitoring of the marine and coastal environment is based on recent methods and validated after experiments in the field of marine pollution.
Pierre Bourdieu in Hispanic Literature and Culture
Pierre Bourdieu in Hispanic Literature and Culture is a collective reflection on the value of French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu’s work for the study of Spanish and Latin American literature and culture. The authors deploy Bourdieu’s concepts in the study of Modernismo, avant-garde Mexico, contemporary Puerto Rican literature, Hispanism, Latin American cultural production, and more. Each essay is also a contribution to the study of the politics and economics of culture in Spain and Latin America. The book, as a whole, is in dialogue with recent methodological and theoretical interventions in cultural sociology and Latin American and Iberian studies.
Cómo nos enseñaron a leer
Este libro no es, como bien pudiera parecer, un estudio de historia de la educación al uso. su objeto es, muy al contrario, ciertamente singular. Estamos ante una historia de la educación literaria, un detallado análisis del «qué» y «cómo» se ha aprendido a leer en este país en los dos últimos siglos. Los autores trazan este profundo estudio desde dos premisas fundamentales: por un lado, que nuestra historia literaria se inscribe en tiempos históricos y espacios sociales determinados que deben ser contextualizados para entender ésta de manera correcta. por otro, que nuestra historia literaria conforma y construye los posteriores desarrollos de la literatura española contemporá...
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
Imagen social de los Juegos Mediterráneos y hábitos deportivos de la sociedad almeriense
La celebración de un evento de la relevancia de unos Juegos mediterráneos transciende, sin ninguna duda, el ámbito meramente deportivo y adquiere la dimensión de gran acontecimiento social para la ciudad organizadora y para todo su entorno geográfico. Por eso, es importante conocer la relación que se establece entre la sociedad, que protagonizará el evento, y el conjunto de factores que intervienen en su organización. Este libro quiere aportar una serie de claves para conocer la opinión que los ciudadanos de la capital y la provincia de Almería tienen sobre la XV edición de los Juegos Mediterráneos. El estudio, realizado por un grupo de investigadores integrado por profesores de ...
Ideas estéticas y pedagógicas en la España finisecular: Ángel Gavinet
Con este trabajo de investigación, hemos pretendido estudiar la figura literaria de Ángel Ganivet como una pieza clave del modernismo español. Su obra ha significado un pilar esencial en el proceso de renovación tanto literario como ético desde finales del XIX. Una de las grandes carencias a este respecto era un estudio que profundizara acerca de la ética estética del escritor granadino y su influencia en la construcción de un sólido proyecto de regeneración nacional. Éste es el punto de partida de este trabajo: la teoría poética de Ganivet en el contexto de la Estética Moderna. Lo hemos abordado desde un planteamiento interdisciplinar. Por un lado, se ha reformulado el marcham...
