Lectura de «Al este del Edén» des de la perspectiva de René Girard i de la història dels efectes del text bíblic és una interpretació de la novel·la homònima del Premi Nobel de literatura John Steinbeck (Califòrnia 1902 - Nova York 1968). Partint de l'hermenèutica de l'historiador i crític literari René Girard (Avinyó 1923) i dels conceptes bàsics de desig mimètic, boc emissari i revelació, aquest estudi fa una anàlisi de la novel·la de Steinbeck que posa de manifest com aquest clàssic de la generació perduda americana actualitza el conegut passatge de la mort d'Abel al llibre del Gènesi.

First translation into English on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the publication of the General Theory of Urbanization 1867 by Ildefons Cerdà, an essential work on urban development. In 1867 Ildefons Cerdà published his “Teoria general de la urbanitzación”. In this text, the “science of building cities”, understood as a phenomenon, became a new discipline with a broad economic, social and cultural impact on the life of the people of the city. Coinciding with 150 years since its publication, its first translation into English is being presented along with the publishing online at urbanization.org with the statistics transformed into interactive graphics and open data, with the aim of expanding the knowledge of Cerdà’s work and encouraging debate on the process of “urbanization” in the future. Co-published with the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia in collaboration with the Diputació de Barcelona, the Generalitat de Catalunya through Incasòl. Bloomberg Philanthropies contributed as a collaborator for the international di usion of the project.
Estamos ante un libro importante. Importante por la luz que proyecta sobre el denodado combate por la conquista de la libertad religiosa en la España contemporánea, la última de las libertades por no haberse logrado prácticamente hasta nuestros días (...) pero también porque ilumina los esfuerzos evangélicos por introducir en la Península un cristianismo tolerante y pluralista. El profesor Vilar pone de manifiesto cuan violenta fue la reacción de la Iglesia establecida frente a sus disidentes (...) En general el clero católico estuvo más preocupado en preservar los seculares privilegios de la Iglesia católica, que en procurar su propia vivificación espiritual. El libro del profesor Vilar se distingue por ser ante todo un sólido y cuidado trabajo de alta investigación.
