De vera vita

Autor: François Jullien

Número de Páginas: 112

UN LÚCIDO Y NECESARIO MANUAL DE RESISTENCIA «El concepto de una vida "vida verdadera" implica que rechacemos las desviaciones que nos imponen lo cotidiano, la sociedad y el mercado, y que sepamos discrepar de la vida reglada, para así poder plantearnos que otra vida es posible. Al no tener pretensiones de ser "beneficioso", este ensayo tan erudito como actual es un libro de combate con la filosofía como arma». Le Figaro «François Jullien no pretende dar la receta ni las claves de la sabiduría, sino que cuestiona con rigor la filosofía de la existencia. Reelaborando el concepto de "vida verdadera", el autor nos propone cómo oponernos a los movimientos de resignación y estancamiento de nuestras vidas». Le Temps «François Jullien denuncia la actual mercantilización de la felicidad, un seudopensamiento que hay que combatir tanto como hay que resistir a la seudovida. Ante la resignación y la alienación que nos acechan, propone abrirse a nuevas posibilidades que despierten en nosotros emoción y, por tanto, disidencia». Libération «Mujer u hombre, joven o viejo, cultivado o no, todos nos preguntamos en algún momento: ¿Y si he equivocado mi camino? ¿Acaso estoy...

La tierra de Vera

Autor: Manuel Caparrós Perales

Número de Páginas: 448

La presente obra incluye una serie de trabajos que tienen en común el estudio de distintas épocas y aspectos de la tierra de Vera, situada en el levante almeriense. Desde una perspectiva multidisciplinar, científicos, arqueólogos, filólogos, arquitectos urbanistas, historiadores, economistas y profesores de distintas materias, nos acercan a la historia acaecida en estas tierras. Si bien podría pensarse que es una obra centrada en la historia local, el tratamiento de los distintos temas rebasa este marco y la contextualización que se realiza en los diferentes trabajos nos permite extraer argumentos útiles para la interpretación de una historia que supera lo regional. Las características de la tierra de Vera y los distintos sucesos que han tenido lugar a lo largo de su historia configuraron determinados rasgos que permiten su calificación como un territorio vulnerable y de frontera. Por estas razones, la obra también permite extraer valiosas enseñanzas sobre los comportamientos económicos, sociológicos y políticos acontecidos en un territorio con estos atributos.

Don Juan en la Vera

Autor: Carlos Valverde Madrid

Número de Páginas: 182

Las mujeres burladas por Don Juan Tenorio, tanto en la obra de Zorrilla como en la de Tirso de Molina, se reúnen un martes de carnaval a esperar la llegada del burlador. El objetivo es hacerle pagar sus desmanes, pero se encontrarán con algunas dificultades. Para empezar Don Juan no es tan macho como él se pinta, según la experiencia de la mayoría de las ofendidas. La famosa cita de la Hostería del Laurel ha sido esta vez en un pueblo famoso por sus carnavales, Villanueva de La Vera, y allí tienen un Don Juan propio, Peropalo. Un tipo mucho más peligroso que el sevillano y, para colmo, con las mujeres de la localidad a su favor. Un juguete cómico de enredo que se mueve entre el esperpento y el astracán para caricaturizar al más famoso de los seductores.

Productivity

Autor: Jóhanna Barðdal

Número de Páginas: 226

Productivity of argument structure constructions is a new emerging field within cognitive-functional linguistics. The term productivity as used in linguistic research contains at least three subconcepts: ‘extensibility’, ‘regularity’, and ‘generality’. The focus in this study of case and argument structure constructions in Icelandic is on the concept of extensibility, while generality and regularity are regarded as derivative of extensibility. Productivity is considered to be a function of type frequency, semantic coherence, and the inverse correlation between these two. This study establishes productivity as an emergent feature of the grammatical system, in an analysis that is grounded in a usage-based constructional approach, where constructions are organized into lexicality-schematicity hierarchies. The view of syntactic productivity advocated here offers a unified account of productivity, in that it captures different degrees of productivity, ranging from highly productive patterns through various intermediate degrees of productivity to low-level analogical extensions.

Timeless Secrets of Health and Rejuvenation

Autor: Andreas Moritz

Número de Páginas: 486

What actually causes disease? The answer might be surprising. In this new edition of his best-selling book The Key to Health and Rejuvenation, Andreas Moritz reveals the most common but rarely recognized reasons responsible for illness and aging and how to achieve continuous vibrant health. Andreas puts the responsibility of basic health care back into the hands of the individual. He states, "Healing occurs effortlessly and naturally once the conditions that are required for the body to return to its most natural state - balance and efficiency - have been met." The basic theme is the relative ease involved in creating good health. While physicians attempt to combat or subdue illness, they "know very little about employing the mind and body to actually heal a person." The book includes a complete self-help program, part of which is derived from the ancient medical system of Ayurveda. In addition, this book is packed with useful information on all major health issues and effective methods of cleansing the blood, liver and gallbladder, intestines, kidneys, blood vessels, lymphatic system and body tissues. The nearly 500 pages, divided into 15 chapters, explain everything about the...

Pal Joey

Autor: Julianne Lindberg

Número de Páginas: 289

When Rodgers and Hart's Pal Joey opened at the Barrymore on Christmas day, 1940, it flew in the face of musical comedy convention. The characters and situation were depraved. The setting was caustically realistic. Its female lead was frankly sexual and yet not purely comic. A narratively-driven dream ballet closed the first act, begging audiences to take seriously the inner life and desires of a confirmed heel. Pal Joey: The History of a Heel presents a behind-the-scenes look at the genesis, influence, and significance of this classic musical comedy. Although the show appears on many top-ten lists surveying the Golden Age, it is a controversial classic; its legacy is tied both to the fashionable scandal that it provoked, and, retrospectively, to the uncommon attention it paid to characterization and narrative cohesion. Through an archive-driven investigation of the show and its music, author Julianne Lindberg offers insight into the historical moment during which Joey was born, and to the process of genre classification, canon formation, and the ensuing critical debates related to musical and theatrical maturity. More broadly, the book argues that the critique and commentary on...

Second Language Acquisition and the Younger Learner

Autor: Jenefer Philp , Rhonda Oliver , Alison Mackey

Número de Páginas: 344

This new volume of work highlights the distinctiveness of child SLA through a collection of different types of empirical research specific to younger learners. Characteristics of children's cognitive, emotional, and social development distinguish their experiences from those of adult L2 learners, creating intriguing issues for SLA research, and also raising important practical questions regarding effective pedagogical techniques for learners of different ages. While child SLA is often typically thought of as simple (and often enjoyable and universally effortless), in other words, as “child's play”, the complex portraits of young second language learners which emerge in the 16 papers collected in this book invite the reader to reconsider the reality for many younger learners. Chapters by internationally renowned authors together with reports by emerging researchers describe second and foreign language learning by children ranging from pre-schoolers to young adolescents, in home and school contexts, with caregivers, peers, and teachers as interlocutors.

Medicinal and Aromatic Plants

Autor: Tariq Aftab , Khalid Rehman Hakeem

Número de Páginas: 781

Before the concept of history began, humans undoubtedly acquired life benefits by discovering medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) that were food and medicine. Today, a variety of available herbs and spices are used and enjoyed throughout the world and continue to promote good health. The international market is also quite welcoming for MAPs and essential oils. The increasing environment and nature conscious buyers encourage producers to produce high quality essential oils. These consumer choices lead to growing preference for organic and herbal based products in the world market. As the benefits of medicinal and aromatic plants are recognized, these plants will have a special role for humans in the future. Until last century, the production of botanicals relies to a large degree on wild-collection. However, the increasing commercial collection, largely unmonitored trade, and habitat loss lead to an incomparably growing pressure on plant populations in the wild. Therefore, medicinal and aromatic plants are of high priority for conservation. Given the above, we bring forth a comprehensive volume, “Medicinal and Aromatic Plants: Healthcare and Industrial Applications”,...
