Beauty, Devotion and Spirituality
There is scant research on the art produced under the Congregation of the Oratory of Saint Philip Neri, with the exception of a couple of general books focused primarily on major Oratorian art pieces. Therefore, this book of essays aims to discuss the art and culture produced by or associated with the Oratorians by providing a broad overview focused especially on rarely investigated issues. The authors focus on this very important artistic production, commonly forgotten when compared with other religious productions of art, by covering geographical areas spanning from Sri Lanka to Mexico, including Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, India and Brazil.
Libros que hay y los que se han hallado
En esta obra, los lectores encontrarán elementos que permiten comprender algunas de las colecciones históricas más interesantes de la Iberoamérica: las bibliotecas conventuales y religiosas. Estos espacios, privilegiados para el desarrollo de la cultura escrita desde los siglos XVI al XIX, son el objeto de análisis a partir del cual los autores participantes en este volumen reflexionan sobre el significado y la representación de la palabra escrita en nuestro pasado. El volumen reúne a investigadores iberoamericanos de la historia cultural y de la cultura escrita, así como a historiadores de las órdenes religiosas, para discutir y dialogar sobre la historia de las bibliotecas conventuales y la cultura escrita del clero regular en Iberoamérica a lo largo de las centurias citadas. Así pues, a lo largo de ocho capítulos, el libro da cuenta de las propuestas metodológicas y del trabajo multidisciplinario que se está desarrollando en la historiografía de diferentes países, y los unifica en una sola obra.
The Mononuclear Phagocyte System in Infectious Disease
The Mononuclear Phagocyte System (MPS) of vertebrates is composed of monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells. Together, they form part of the first line of immune defense against a variety of pathogens (bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses), and thus play an important role in maintaining organism homeostasis. The mode of transmission, type of replication and mechanism of disease-causing differ significantly for each pathogen, eliciting a unique immune response in the host. Within this context, the MPS acts as both the sentinel and tailor of the immune system. As sentinels, MPS cells are found in blood and within tissues throughout the body to patrol against pathogenic insult. The strate...
La filosofía natural del médico J. Gallego de la Serna. Una embriología para la corte de Felipe IV
La filosofía natural antigua ofrecía a los médicos un marco de interpretación del vínculo inexcusable que unía al hombre con todas las formas de vida conocidas. El vigor con que renacían estos estudios en las universidades españolas surgía de los comentarios a los textos médicos junto con la publicación de debates en latín sobre las cuestiones menos claras. El cuerpo humano se describía con detalle, pero era difícil descubrir su funcionamiento. La analogía con distintos seres vivos y el relato de los mitos cosmológicos se admitían como explicación recurrente. El pensamiento del malagueño Juan Gallego de la Serna desvela las condiciones que la tradición filosófica impo...
