El recorrido de la senda de la igualdad requiere de la participación activa de los hombres. Haciéndose eco de esta realidad, nuestro agradecimiento a la Dra. Anastasia Téllez por prender la ilusión que ha generado un encuentro de investigación interdisciplinar e internacional con el fin de abordar las masculinidades igualitarias en el ámbito de la Universidad. Necesario también el agradecimiento a la incansable e incondicional dedicación del Comité Organizador, respaldado siempre por el reconocida calidad investigadora del Comité Científico. No es menos obligado el reconocimiento al impulso y cooperación de Universidades, Organismos y Entidades públicas y privadas que se embarcaron en esta aventura. Todas las personas que han participado de esta travesía lo han hecho con una sola idea convertida en lema: “La igualdad también es cosa de Hombres”.
Pellucid Paper is an interdisciplinary study of the materiality of Early Modern poetry and its relation to political power, memory and subject constitution. Informed by German Media theory and specifically the more recent developments of Cultural Techniques, Wickberg offers a fresh and imaginative take on Early Modern culture.
This book focuses on representations of aging masculinities in contemporary U.S. fiction, including shifting perceptions of physical and sexual prowess, depression, and loss, but also greater wisdom and confidence, legacy, as well as new affective patterns. The collection also incorporates factors such as race, sexuality and religion. The volume includes studies, amongst others, on Philip Roth, Paul Auster, Toni Morrison, Ernest Gaines, and Edmund White. Ultimately, this study proves that men’s aging experiences as described in contemporary U.S. literature and culture are as complex and varied as those of their female counterparts.
This book presents a state of the art in mortar characterisation, experimentation with and applications of new mortars for conservation and repair of historic buildings. This volume includes the following topics: characterisation of historic mortars (methods, interpretation, application of results), development of new materials for conservation (compatibility, durability, mix designs), the history of mortar technology and fundamental experimental studies of material properties. The papers have been selected from those presented at the 3rd Historic Mortars Conference, held in Glasgow, Scotland, September 11-14th 2013. All the papers here underwent a two stage peer review process, for the conference and again for this volume. In some cases this has resulted in a revision and updating of content.
Men in the Public Eye reveals why men's domination in and of the public sphere is a vital feature of gender relations in patriarchy. It also shows how public domains dominate private domains, contributing to the intensification of public patriarchies. Jeff Hearn explores these important issues by focusing on the period 1870-1920, when there was massive growth and transformation in the power of the public domains. He demonstrates that these historical debates and dilemmas are still relevant today as men search for new, postmodern forms of masculinities.
