La imaginación feminista
Un libro imprescindible que reúne las contribuciones críticas del feminismo en sociología, economía, antropología, psicología, pedagogía, derecho y filosofía. Tradición intelectual y movimiento social y político con tres siglos de historia, es sobre todo a partir de los años setenta del siglo XX cuando el feminismo entra a formar parte de la universidad y a abrir líneas de investigación que cristalizarán en la creación de un corpus teórico transdisciplinar en las distintas ciencias sociales, jurídicas y la filosofía y a enriquecer sus propios debates teóricos, políticos y estratégicos.

L'éducation des femmes en Europe et en Amérique du Nord de la Renaissance à 1848 : réalités et représentations
Een historisch overzicht van het onderwijs aan vrouwen in Europa en Noord-Amerika vanaf de Renaissance tot 1848.Waarbij we uiteraard onderwijs ruim moeten opvatten. Zeker wat de vroege periode betreft gaat het meer over wat men dacht dat vrouwen nodig hadden aan kennis en vaardigheden om aan een bepaald vrouwbeeld te voldoen. Het boek is onderverdeeld in drie grote delen. Het eerste gedeelte gaat over de periode van de Renaissance tot aan de Verlichting. Het tweede gedeelte is volledig gewijd aan de 18e eeuw met ruime aandacht voor het gedachtegoed van de Franse Revolutie. In het laatste gedeelte wordt de eerste helft van de 19de eeuw belicht.

Spanish and Indian place names of California
The author of this book believes that every placename contains its unique history and romantics. By viewing toponyms as footprints of the distant epochs, Nellie Sanchez collects the names of the Spanish and Indian origin in the areas around San-Francisco and Los-Angeles and provides a fascinating historical insight into their roots. For example, a reader learns that a Mercy River obtained its name, as it was the first river met by thirsty men who had traveled over 40 miles over a dry valley.

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...
Jose Limon
As a young man, José Limón witnessed the violence of the Mexican Revolution, and then left his home to come to the United States. Once here he worked hard to realize his American dream to become a dancer. This fascinating book explores the essence of his struggle and examines his work as a choreographer, which drew upon his cultural heritage, European literature and music and the work of his famous dance mentors Doris Humphrey and Charles Weidman. Limon's most famous dance, The Moor's Pavane, based on Shakespeare's Othello, is a classic modern dance choreography and is still performed by ballet and modern dance companies throughout the world, including the Limon Dance Company.
A Light in the Darkness: The Music and Life of Joaquín Rodrigo
A composer of singular vision. Joaquín Rodrigo (1901–1999) is best known as the composer of one of the most popular works of music in the twentieth century—the Concierto de Aranjuez for guitar and orchestra. It’s been featured in movies and television commercials and remains a staple of concert programs for orchestras around the world. Miles Davis said, “After listening to it for a couple of weeks…I couldn’t get it out of my mind,” and he used it as inspiration for his album Sketches of Spain. But as Javier Suárez-Pajares and Walter Aaron Clark reveal in this musical biography—the first complete study in English—Rodrigo’s work and influence extend far beyond that singul...
