Nieto-Galan examines the political role of chemistry in twentieth-century Spain, enriching understandings of the relationship between science and power.
This volume is the fruit of a highly productive international research gathering academic and professional (field- and museum) colleagues to discuss new results and approaches, recent finds and alternative theoretical assessments of the period of transition and transformation of classical towns in Late Antiquity. Experts from an array of modern countries attended and presented to help compare and contrast critically archaeologies of diverse regions and to debate the qualities of the archaeology and the current modes of study. While a number of papers inevitably focused on evidence available for both Spain and Portugal, we were delighted to have a spread of contributions that extended the picture to other territories in the Late Roman West and Mediterranean. The emphasis was very much on the images presented by archaeology (rescue and research works, recent and past), but textual data were also brought into play by various contributors.
Los orígenes históricos de la catálisis en España se remontan a las primeras décadas del siglo XX. El propósito principal de este libro es precisamente dar a conocer estos orígenes, así como exponer los hechos esenciales de las vidas de los científicos que con su trabajo la hicieron posible. En esta obra el lector descubrirá en definitiva, la manera en la que la trama apasionante de la investigación científica se entreteje con las circunstancias sociales que la rodean, en este caso las que caracterizaban la sociedad española de la primera mitad del siglo XX, sin las cuales no sería posible comprender la obra científica de aquellos pioneros de la catálisis.
