Copla, Ideología y Poder .
Nacida antes de la instauración de la II República, la popularidad de la copla a lo largo de los siglos XX y XXI permite realizar una radiografía cultural del país a partir de este singular producto artístico. En permanente contacto con otras industrias como la radio, el cine o la televisión, aquello que comúnmente comprendemos como copla no solo atiende a cuestiones musicales, sino también a la iconografía, la representación en la esfera pública de sus principales intérpretes (un genuino star system) y otros aspectos relacionados directamente con la ideología y la convulsa historia política de nuestro pasado más reciente.Copla, ideología y poder ofrece una mirada multidiscip...
Entre copla y Flamenco(s). Escenas, diálogos e intercambios.
A lo largo de su historia copla y flamenco han transitado por espacios comunes, mediante intérpretes que ofrecían indistintamente un género u otro en sus repertorios, y a través de músicas que comparten rasgos estilísticos: coplas aflamencadas, cuplés por bulerías o palos del flamenco cuyas letras fueron tomadas de canciones bien conocidas. A pesar de esta convergencia durante demasiado tiempo estas expresiones artísticas no han merecido la atención de los estudios científicos, y cuando en época reciente han sido abordadas, por un lado lo han hecho desde ópticas dispares (sin partir de la idea de un espacio creativo múltiple y proteico), y por otro han mostrado los problemas, c...
América Como Horizonte
Las relaciones musicales entre España y América han sido y son motivo de atención por parte de académicos, investigadores y, sobre todo, de los públicos receptores que consumen, disfrutan y resignifican repertorios, conceptos e identidades. El presente libro, América como horizonte, se presenta como un espacio de reflexión que transita en torno a esa línea imaginaria donde parecen confluir las prácticas artísticas que se generan a uno y otro lado del Atlántico.Los diálogos derivados de estas relaciones transatlánticas no son unidireccionales: ya en el siglo XIX, junto al gusto por lo español o europeo, apareció igualmente el atractivo por el exotismo de ultramar, algo que perv...
Key Terms in Popular Music and Culture
Original essays by leading scholars in the field of popular music studies map the competing perspectives on the key terms of contemporary debates on popular music and culture. Each essay describes the history of continuities and conflicts in a term's meaning, situating the writer's own position on the term in that history of debate. Providing a invaluable overview of the current state of popular music discourse, the collection will be useful both to those new to the study of popular music and those already well-versed in popular music and cultural studies.
Hormones and Neural Aging: Lessons From Experimental Models
How can we slow the signs of aging? Although aging is a natural process for all living things, doing so without dramatic alterations of health and well-being is an important aim in health care. Understanding this gradual but continuous process is fundamental in order to avoid, or at least improve, aging associated illnesses and conditions. The reviews and studies compiled here address various aspects of the relationship between systemic and central changes during the aging process, with hormonal signals as the important liaison.
An Exorcist Tells His Story
In this powerful book, the renowned exorcist of Rome tells of his many experiences in his ministry as an exorcist doing battle with Satan to relieve the great suffering of people in the grip of evil. The importance of the ministry to expel demons is clearly seen in the Gospels, from the actions of the Apostles, and from Church history. Fr. Amorth allows the reader to witness the activities of the exorcist, to experience what an exorcist sees and does. He also reveals how little modern science, psychology, and medicine can do to help those under Satan's influence, and that only the power of Christ can release them from this kind of mental, spiritual or physical suffering. An Exorcist Tells His Story has been a European best-seller that has gone through numerous printings and editions. No other book today so thoroughly and concisely discusses the topic of exorcism.
The Feast of the Goat
Urania Cabral, a New York lawyer, returns to the Dominican Republic after a lifelong self-imposed exile. Once she is back in her homeland, the elusive feeling of terror that has overshadowed her whole life suddenly takes shape. Urania's own story alternates with the powerful climax of dictator Rafael Trujillo's reign. In 1961, Trujillo's decadent inner circle (which includes Urania's soon-to-be disgraced father) enjoys the luxuries of privilege while the rest of the nation lives in fear and deprivation. As Trujillo clings to power, a plot to push the Dominican Republic into the future is being formed. But after the murder of its hated dictator, the Goat, is carried out, the Dominican Republi...
Applied Photochemistry
Applied Photochemistry encompasses the major applications of the chemical effects resulting from light absorption by atoms and molecules in chemistry, physics, medicine and engineering, and contains contributions from specialists in these key areas. Particular emphasis is placed both on how photochemistry contributes to these disciplines and on what the current developments are. The book starts with a general description of the interaction between light and matter, which provides the general background to photochemistry for non-specialists. The following chapters develop the general synthetic and mechanistic aspects of photochemistry as applied to both organic and inorganic materials, togeth...
