La retórica escolar griega y su influencia literaria

La retórica escolar griega y su influencia literaria

Autor: FernÁndez Delgado, José Antonio , Pordomingo, Francisca

Número de Páginas: 855

El presente volumen contiene una amplia selección de los trabajos llevados a cabo por José Antonio Fernández Delgado y Francisca Pordomingo sobre la relación entre escuela y literatura en Grecia Antigua, los cuales han sido realizados y publicados a lo largo de once proyectos de investigación del MEC y la JCyL y ahora reunidos y editados como merecido homenaje en su jubilación por dos de sus discípulos. Al centrarse en los trabajos relativos al mencionado tema los editores de la presente obra han tenido en cuenta la gran relevancia del mismo y la escasa atención que, no obstante, le ha sido prestada en los estudios de Filología Clásica. Al mismo tiempo las aportaciones aquí reunidas pretenden facilitar la labor investigadora de quienes en el futuro deseen abordar esta temática, sirviendo de base e inspiración a ulteriores estudios sobre la influencia literaria de la práctica escolar en la Antigüedad. En su conjunto los trabajos aquí editados abordan en profundidad los aspectos fundamentales de la presencia de los progymnásmata en la teoría retórica, en los ejercicios escolares trasmitidos en papiro y otros soportes, y en su huella en distintos géneros y autores ...

Cabe destacar también la existencia de autoras emergentes que aún no han conseguido hacerse un hueco en el panorama editorial en lengua española. Confiamos en que la presente obra pueda constituir un paso importante para dar visibilidad a las biografías y a los textos de estas mujeres desmontando tópicos y superando prejuicios.

Nunca en la historia ha existido un momento más importante para la creación y la transmisión de conocimiento. Por un lado, las tecnologías de la comunicación posibilitan transformaciones antes inimaginables, que el mundo del libro y la edición aprovechan para hacer lo que mejor saben: situarse a la cabeza de las innovaciones. Por otro lado, jamás ha habido una proliferación equiparable de estudios y análisis sobre la edición y el libro en todas sus formas, lo que nos permite reflexionar sobre el modo en que se produce esta revolución para la que no existen precedentes. Esta obra es el mejor ejemplo de dicha reflexión. Desde distintos puntos de vista, desde diversas disciplinas y con la mayor riqueza y capacidad de disección se explica qué hacen los hoy editores, qué valor supone su actividad, y cuál es la dimensión cultural y social que hace que el mundo del libro y la edición tenga un perfil propio y una capacidad real de esclarecer y transformar la realidad en que vivimos. Los fundamentos del libro y la edición es una obra colaborativa de académicos y representantes de la industria editorial y librera, que aborda cuestiones urgentes como las complejidades de...

Attribution and Thematization Patterns in Science Popularization Articles of «The Guardian» Newspaper

Autor: Blanca GarcÍa Riaza

Número de Páginas: 346

This doctoral dissertation places its focus on the discourse of news media in English, which has traditionally been an attractive and fruitful source of information about language for both discourse analysts and corpus linguists. While many of the analyses have focused on scientific discourse, the alternative approach to science popularization proposed focuses on its description as a newspaper genre, placing our emphasis on the description of textual features typical of science popularization discourse. The popularization of science is normally carried out by a number of journalists who write in scientific sections and act as mediators between scientists and lay people, and who elaborate discourse through a series of linguistic and discursive choices by which they obtain credibility for the facts under comment. One of those resources is that of explicit attribution which presents discourse as deriving from someone different from the journalist, and introduces reported language events in the text. In this context, this study was created with the aim of providing the phenomenon of attribution in newspaper discourse with deeper insights that help improve the knowledge about language...

The Wrong House

The Wrong House

Autor: Esteban Burier

Número de Páginas: 166

“THE WRONG HOUSE” (Marielito; Exodus of Cubans in 1980) By Esteban Burier For all opponents of the Castro regime who went to comply with arbitrary sanctions; for those who were executed by the Castro regime; deprived of any defense, innocent of cases imposed by improvised courts; for those who were under the inclemency of the murderer Ernesto (Che) Guevara and so many other lap dogs of the dictator Fidel Castro; They are my deepest respect and admiration. They gave their lives with a shout of; Live Christ the King! Long live free Cuba! “THE WRONG HOUSE” Narrates the childhood of a boy that never thought twice to make a decision, committing many errors which took him, as consequence of punishment, to many juvenile reformatories and at last to jail, where he spent part of his life. The good education from his family did not influence on the boy, who does not divert from his delinquent path. A supernatural strength pushed him to these twisted paths to destroy and incarcerate him to where the stubborn are taken, to where you are subject to many tests and you can lose your dignity and also your manhood, depending on how weak or strong your personality is or if you allow to be...

Número de Páginas: 309

Este volumen contiene las actas de las ponencias presentadas al IV Coloquio Internacional de Historia Antigua Universidad de Zaragoza, celebrado los días 4 y 5 de junio de 2007. Como las ediciones anteriores, de periodicidad bianual, esta reunión científica ha resultado de la fructífera colaboración entre el Centro para el Estudio de la Interdependencia Provincial en la Antigüedad Clásica (CEIPAC) de la Universidad de Barcelona y el Área de Historia Antigua del Departamento de Ciencias de la Antigüedad de la Universidad de Zaragoza. .El tema escogido para el coloquio que ahora ve la luz fue “Formae Mortis: El tránsito de la vida a la muerte en las sociedades antiguas”. Nuestro objetivo, al invitar a especialistas españoles y extranjeros a llevar a cabo una reflexión conjunta, era ejemplificar las diversas modalidades, intenciones o representaciones de esa transición -esencial como ninguna por suprema e ineluctable- partiendo de un presupuesto metodológico: el de considerar la muerte como un proceso, como un espacio/tiempo de liminalidad, mas que como un suceso.

Talons and Fangs of the Eastern Han Warlords

Talons and Fangs of the Eastern Han Warlords

Autor: Lu Yimin

Número de Páginas: 310

Warriors are a less visible topic in the study of imperial China. They did not write history, but they made new history by destroying the old. The fall of the first enduring Chinese empire, the Han, collides with the rise of its last warriors known as the “talons and fangs.” Despite some classical or deceptive myths like the Chinese ideal of bloodless victories and a culture without soldiers, the talons and fangs of the Eastern Han warlords demonstrated the full potential of military prestige in a Confucian hierarchy, the bloodcurdling reality of dynastic rivalry, as well as a romantic tradition infatuated with individual heroism. Imperial China was a culture and an empire. It commands scholarly interest mostly for its early political sophistication and continuous cultural splendor. Despite a well-known Chinese dynastic cycle which involves as much peace as war, the fruits of Western scholarship have long been heavy on the brighter sides of traditional China: a high civilization teeming with humane philosophers, a united empire run by a sophisticated civil bureaucracy, and a refined people with sagelike poets of a bamboo grove and romantic dreamers in a red chamber. What has...

The Slave's Little Friends

The Slave's Little Friends

Autor: Carme Manuel

Número de Páginas: 778

The texts included in this anthology illustrate the wide range of possibilities that abolitionist writings offered to American children during the first half of the nineteenth century. Composing their works under the wings of the antislavery movement, authors responded to the unequal and controversial development of abolitionist politics during the decades that led up to the outbreak of the Civil War. These writers struggled to teach children “to feel right,” and attempted to instruct them to actively respond to the injustice of the slavery system as rendered visible by a harrowing visual archive of suffering bodies compiled by both English and American antislavery promoters. Reading was equated with knowledge and knowledge was equated with moral responsibility, and therefore reading about “the abominations of slavery” became an act of emotional personal transformation. Children were thus turned into powerful agents of political change and potential activists to spread the abolitionist message. Invited to comply with a higher law that entailed the breaking of their nation’s edicts, they were morally rewarded by the Christian God and approvingly applauded by their elders...

The story that follows is real, and presents the financial suffering incurred by thousands of victims who were affected by the downfall of the bank. It is also a story of the sadness experienced by thousands of people who were involved in the bank’s development and then were touched by the hand of corruption, vice, wickedness, murder, blackmail, and drugs; all in the name of the Most Holy God who was thought to be pouring out his blessings to endorse these financial monstrosities.

Frankenstein or, the modern Prometheus

Autor: Mary Shelley

Número de Páginas: 256

Disfruta de este clásico de Mary Shelley en versión original. Frankenstein o el moderno Prometeo, o simplemente Frankenstein (título original en inglés: Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus), es una obra literaria de la escritora inglesa Mary Shelley. Publicado el 1 de enero de 1818 y enmarcado en la tradición de la novela gótica, el texto habla de temas tales como la moral científica, la creación y destrucción de vida y el atrevimiento de la humanidad en su relación con Dios. De ahí, el subtítulo de la obra: el protagonista intenta rivalizar en poder con Dios, como una suerte de Prometeo moderno que arrebata el fuego sagrado de la vida a la divinidad. Aunque Frankenstein está impregnado de elementos de la novela gótica y el movimiento romántico, el escritor y editor de ciencia ficción Brian Aldiss ha argumentado que debería considerarse la primera historia verdadera de ciencia ficción.
