El historiador como docente
En este libro se recogen varias aportaciones en torno a un tema central: el desafío que deben afrontar los historiadores en la medida en que, además de dedicarse a la investigación, han de desempeñar una labor docente y, como tal, de comunicación en la sociedad actual, caracterizada precisamente por la avalancha informativa y la proliferación de noticias falsas, también conocidas como "bulos" o "fake news". Los capítulos giran en torno a la necesidad de revalorizar nuestra disciplina científica, la identificación de herramientas alternativas para la enseñanza de la historia en las aulas, y un compendio de buenas prácticas educativas cuyo fin no es otro que demostrar que otra historia es posible, no para alejarnos de nuestras raíces científicas, sino para dirigirnos al público actual en un lenguaje que le resulte familiar y, al mismo tiempo, presentarnos como alternativa clara, rigurosa y objetiva, a otras noticias e informaciones de dudosa veracidad.
Indigenous Peoples' Food Systems
Today, globalisation and homogenisation have replaced local food cultures. The 12 case studies presented in this book show the wealth of knowledge in indigenous communities in diverse ecosystems, the richness of their food resources, the inherent strengths of the local traditional food systems, how people think about and use these foods, the influx of industrial and purchased food, and the circumstances of the nutrition transition in indigenous communities. The unique styles of conceptualising food systems and writing about them were preserved. Photographs and tables accompany each chapter.
Warhol/ Makos in Context
Featuring over 100 original Makos contact sheets, reproduced in full with the photographer's editing marks and comments, Warhol | Makos in Context includes unedited, raw material of his work during the years he saw Warhol almost daily. An insider's account of the high jinks and high times at the Factory and beyond, this is an unexpurgated visual record of New York's most intriguing circle and a primary source document that puts Warhol in context in Makos' life. |I wish I could take photographs like that.| - Andy Warhol on Christopher Makos
Times Gone By
These memoirs trace the wild and adventurous life of Pérez Rosales from his childhood up to the 1860s. During that approximately half-century he saw and did more than a dozen ordinary men. At age eleven in Argentina he witnessed the executions of Luis and Juan Jose Carrera. From there, his activities and adventures took him on several journeys on sailing vessels around Cape Horn; to Paris, where he witnessed the July revolution of 1830; to various commercial endeavors including a distillery, the practice of medicine, and cattle smuggling; into service as an advisor to an Argentine warlord; as a miner for precious metals in the north of Chile; as participant in the California Gold Rush in 1849; as director of the government's project for German immigration and settlement in the wild south of Chile; and also as Chilean consul and immigration agent in Hamburg. Around the world, Rosales lived through many of his era's watershed moments. His exciting memoirs offer a chance to relive the rush and chaos of these times--from a much safer vantage.

The Complete Posthumous Poetry
The Translation judges for the National Book Awards--Richard Miller, Alastair Reid, Eliot Weinberger--cited Clayton Eshleman and Jose Rubia Barcia's translation of Cesar Vallejo's The Complete Posthumous Poetry as follows: "This, the first National Book Award to be given to a translation of modern poetry, is a recognition of Clayton Eshleman's seventeen-year apprenticeship to perhaps the most difficult poetry in the Spanish language. Eshleman and his present collaborator, Jose Rubia Barcia, have not only rendered these complex poems into brilliant and living English, but have also established a definitive Spanish test based on Vallejo's densely rewritten manuscripts. In recreating this modern master in English, they have also made a considerable addition to poetry in our language."
I Congreso Interfacultativo de Innovación Docente – CIFID-1
Hace un año celebrábamos en nuestra universidad el I Taller sobre Innovación Docente, dando así cumplimiento de uno de los objetivos prioritarios del equipo de gobierno de la universidad. A la vista de cómo se había desarrollado aquella jornada en julio de 2017, no era difícil intuir que su proyectada continuación, el I Congreso de Innovación Docente (CIFID-1), sería todo un éxito. Y así ha sido. Los cientos de participantes en este encuentro hemos tenido la valiosa oportunidad de compartir multitud de iniciativas de sumo interés, poniendo en evidencia, una vez más, la inquietud de nuestro profesorado a la hora de buscar nuevos caminos para el continuo progreso en su función d...
