Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Stimulating beverages are often consumed by people because these help them to rejuvenate. There are a variety of non-alcoholic drinks that are prepared for consumption daily. Caffeine is the primary stimulant observed in most beverages like coffee and tea. People worldwide consume this drink. On the other hand, green tea is a new but popular concoction prepared by steeping green tea leaves, but the caffeine content here is low enough. Therefore, despite the benefits of green tea, people still searched for a potent caffeine drink that was not safe for regular consumption. In the search for appropriate caffeinated drinks, the name Yerba Mate features a prominent one. Yerba mate is extracted from Ilex paraguariensis plants, commonly found in North-East Argentina, Southern Brazil, and Paraguay. Yerba Mate is not a discovery. People traditionally consumed it as a hot or cold beverage before the Spanish colonial era. It was common among the Káingang and Guaraní people. The Yerba Mate became famous in South America during the Spanish colonial era. In the 1900s, Julio Martin initiated the first commercial and organized production of Yerba Mate. Argentina is the biggest producer and exporter of Yerba Mate among other South American countries. Several different varieties of tea are available for consumption, but the drinking of Yerba Mate is associated with a friendly gesture, and its drinking is rooted in deep social ties. The sense of sharing in a community is a prominent feature associated with the drinking of Yerba Mate. Sharing the drink in a community serves as an invitation to open communication among people. The custom of giving messages through the Yerba Mate drink is age-old. For instance, if a woman served Yerba Mate to a Man with lemon verbena leaves, it hinted love. On the other hand, if the drink was served with bombú tree leaves, it showed rejection. During the Pandemic, the physical sharing custom of the drink replaced this tradition with video sharing. But this brought people closer in another form. The popularity of Yerba Mate, with its social roots, made its way into the world. The study aims to document the history and present popularity of Yerba Mate. Apart from the social and aphrodisiac nature of the drink, the study also focuses on the benefits of Yerba Mate. The research compares Yerba Mate with other popular beverages to assess the effectiveness of this drink.

Spanglish is a unique linguistic phenomenon that is widely used in many spheres of social life and culture, especially among the youth. The relevance of this work lies in the fact that a person who wants to understand the culture of Mexico and the United States of America, to understand the speakers of the Mexican version of the Spanish language and communicate with them successfully, needs to know about the principles of using Spanglish, its significance for speakers, and also its areas of application. The subject of the research is the features of the use of Spanglish in modern music. The purpose of this paper is to study the Spanglish phenomenon and consider examples of its use by contemporary songwriters. Among the tasks it can be noted: based on the experience in studying the history of the origin of Spanglish, consider its main features, give examples of the use of Spanglish in modern musical compositions and draw a conclusion about the frequency of occurrence of Spanglish in music.

This article is dedicated to the expression of the main concepts of the historic issue “The Black Legend” in the modern public Spanish language on the material of the publications of two authors, J. Marias and J. Cercas, in the Sunday supplement to the newspaper “El País”. It deals the historically marked notion artificially introduced into the circulation during the next two centuries by the countries-enemies of Spain on the political stage and it influenced the attitude of the other countries and even the population of Spain itself to their Motherland and to themselves. Being the historical issue it was spread by the mean of written word o by published pamphlets and its influence can still be noticed even in the modern qualified press.“The resonances” of those remote ideas impregnate the opinion-based journalism of the famous Spanish writers, persons with the high level of education and culture, with great number of literary awards and dozens of novels, whose thoughts are respected by the great number of readers.Among the main columns of “The Black Legend”there are four key positions: anti-propaganda of political, economic and religious spheres of Spanish society’s life; attributing to the main figures of Spanish history only negative features like imperfections, failures which turned to refer to the whole Spanish society; discreditation of the intellectual part of the country and, themost painful, its support and approval by other European intellectuals of that time like Voltaire or Montesquieu. Even nowadays there are numerous investigations and publications by foreign authors that echo the old “The Black Legend” trying to depreciate or minimize the role of Spanish power in the world history.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Although the significance of many other dimensions of variation in the data of Spanish historical linguistics is well recognised, the importance of studying variation in register has been underestimated and its feasibility questioned. This is in striking contrast to English historical linguistics, in which the study of register on the basis of electronic corpora is comparatively far advanced. This paper is a small-scale investigation of a 15th-century Spanish text, Arcipreste de Talavera o Corbacho (hereinafter referred to as Corbacho), whose author is clearly making an attempt to represent, perhaps stereotypically, different contemporary registers. It shows how, through a combination of statistical analysis and philological sensitivity, register-based linguistic variables can be recovered from a relatively short, multi-register text.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Si el siglo XX creó una extendida conciencia sobre las variantes de la intertextualidad en la ficción literaria, hoy enfrentamos transformaciones en la naturaleza de la ficción y sus relaciones con otras formas discursivas y/o creativas como el arte, y con la misma realidad, que es posible designar con el concepto de ficción extrema. Desde “Don Quijote” o “Las meninas” hay incursiones en la metaficción y/o autorrefecividad. Pero a partir de las vanguardias modernistas y de modo creciente en los estertores de la postmodernidad nos abocamos a un singular tipo de hipertextualidad que desbordando lo literario se apropia de prácticas artísticas (o lo contrario) como recurso para la transposición de sus ficciones, no sólo de uno a otro campo, sino para su inserción en la realidad: la ficción extrema.
Max Aub (España 1903-México 1973), Leonora Carrington (Inglaterra 1917-México 2011) y Enrique Vila-Matas (España 1958), radicalizaron este tránsito o filtración de los imaginarios artísticos y literarios subvirtiendo las delimitaciones entre —pintor catalán Jusep Torres Campalans, junto con sus obras pictóricas, creadas como sombra o doble de Picasso. Así insertó su existencia en ciertos dominios del cubismo como un modo de meta-crítica artística. Carrington asumió un doble animal que transitó entre cuentos y cuadros y se inscribió en la memoria del surrealismo. Vila-Matas narró su “Historia abreviada de la literatura portátil” como un doble del espectro Marcel Duchamp —a su vez asaltado por otros— que reescribe la memoria del dadaísmo de tal modo que ha llegado a ser confundida con un ensayo. La revisión de las estrategias de la ficción extrema en estos autores junto con las de otros contemplados en el epilogo —Mario Bellatín, y los artistas Liliana Porter, Luis Camnitzer, José Guillermo Castillo, Ana Tisconia, Rubén Torres Llorca y Carlos Amorales— arroja nueva luz sobre sus obras, enriquece los estudios transatlánticos y revela la movilidad y multiplicación de la identidad y los deslizamientos de la ficción en la realidad como signos de tránsito a la altermodernidad.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This dissertation asserts that the tortuous relationship Spanish American literature had with cosmopolitanism since the Wars of Independence reached a turning point towards the end of the second half of the twentieth century. While the literary production of the nineteenth and most of the twentieth century was centred on the Spanish American nation and the continent, contemporary literature has become increasingly deterritorialized, and has begun to present narrative worlds and discuss issues that transcend this circumscribed universe. The discerning of this articulation of global issues in contemporary literature – which I contend is predicated on the concept of cosmopolitanism – is the primary objective of this investigation.
The five novels examined here are Elena Poniatowska’s La “Flor de Lis” (1988), Mario Vargas Llosa’s El Paraíso en la otra esquina (2003) and El sueño del celta (2010), and Jorge Volpi’s El fin de la locura (2003) and No será la Tierra (2006). This study aims to describe and assess an evolving perspective on the treatment of cosmopolitanism in Spanish America. I trace the shift from the previous generations’ main preoccupation with aesthetic cosmopolitanism, which sought to engage Latin American literary discourse with the Western canon, to what I identify as the current political implication of the concept. To this end, I show that whereas mid-twentieth century authors displaced cosmopolitanism in favour of more politically expedient concepts, authors now plot it in their novels as a means of discussing issues of identity and citizenship in an increasingly globalized world.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Cette thèse de doctorat tente de comprendre et d'expliquer l'importance dans l'Histoire de l'Espagne de l’association du phénomène du flamenco et de l'identité nationale espagnole. Le travail s'inscrit dans les caractéristiques culturelles des gitans, dans la « cassure » ou la « gitanité » des valeurs esthétiques consubstantielles et prend en compte les aspects non liés à la musique dans l’univers du « flamenco ». Les traits distinctifs font partie du répertoire et du stéréotype de l'identité nationale de « ce qui est espagnol » à partir de l'utilisation des identités spécifiques des gitans espagnols.Nous soulignons l'importance des danseuses gitanes espagnoles dans ce parcours historique et pédagogique sur l'Histoire du peuple gitan espagnol.Le contexte socioculturel des gitans sera analysé, depuis son arrivée sur la péninsule ibérique, en s’interrogeant sur les difficultés à être reconnu comme partie intégrante de la société espagnole, confronté, comme il l’a été, à un cadre législatif raciste, fondé sur le déni d’inclusion sociale, dans lequel s'est développée la politique espagnole.Le peuple gitan a obtenu une visibilité, en Espagne et dans le monde, grâce aux œuvres de Fortuny, Singer Sargent ou Apperley. En outre, il a été très présent dans les premiers films d'Edison sur le continent américain, comme ceux de Carmencita, plus connu en Espagne sous le nom de María de la O (Elias 1936).La thèse analyse comment les éléments d'un groupe ethnique marginal et méprisé tout au long de l'histoire espagnole, ont été acceptés par la société jusqu'à devenir des représentations iconographiques du pays.La méthodologie est fondée sur l'interdisciplinarité des contenus et l’utilisation de diverses stratégies qui comprennent des études généalogiques, une recherche en archives et dans différentes bibliothèques et le visionnage de films et de photographies. S’ajoutent des entretiens personnels avec des personnalités marquantes de la communauté gitane.Parmi les résultats de ce travail on peut souligner, l’identification de l'origine possible de l'imprimé à pois en esthétique du flamenco; l'identité de certaines personnes dans des images rares, étudiées à partir du premier tiers du XXe siècle ; et la valorisation de l'histoire de la famille Maya du Sacromonte dans l'histoire du flamenco et de l’identité gitane.En outre, les conclusions ont approfondi certains aspects de l'histoire du peuple gitan et nous avons approfondi la réflexion sur les raisons de la position marginale et dévalorisée du Gitan dans la sphère sociale, politique et législativeThis Doctoral Thesis tries to understand and explain the importance omitted inthe History of Spain between the current cultural association of the phenomenonof flamenco and the national identity of Spanishness.The work was involved within the cultural characteristics of the gypsypeople in the «rompien» or 'gitaneidad' of the values of substantial aesthetics andattending to the modal categories not related to musicality within what we call«lo flamenco».These distinctive characteristics formed part of the repertoire andstereotype of the national identity of «Spanishness» through the use of theparticular identities of Spanish gypsies.The socio-cultural context of the gypsy people will be analysed, fromtheir arrival in the area of the Iberian Peninsula known today as Spain and theirdifficulties in being recognised as part of Spanish society due to the racistlegislative framework based on the denial of social inclusion in which Spanishpolitics has developed.Gypsies came to achieve a representative position in Spain and the worldin the brushstrokes of prestigious artists such as Fortuny, Singer Sargent andApperley. They also had a great presence in Edison's first films on the Americancontinent, such as those of Carmencita and others that were better known inSpain, such as the film María de la O (Elias 1936).The thesis will analyse how the elements of a marginalised and despisedethnic group throughout Spanish history are accepted by the centre until theybecome iconographic representations of the country.The methodology will be based on the interdisciplinary nature of thecontents and the use of diverse strategies that include: genetic studies, researchin various archives and libraries, viewing of films and photographs, personalinterviews with relevant personalities and a multitude of readings related to thesubject.Among the results of this work we can highlight: the identification of thepossible origin of the polka-dot pattern in the aesthetics of flamenco; the identityof some people in little-studied films from the first third of the 20th century; andthe value of the history of the Maya family of Sacromonte in the history offlamenco and its gypsy identity.Furthermore, in the conclusions, some aspects of the history of the gypsypeople were examined in depth and it was argued how the gypsy person hasalways been placed in a degraded position in the social, political and legislativespheres. In order to tackle the problem of non-compliance with ConstitutionalLaw, the involvement of university education in Spanish gypsy issues is apending, urgent and fundamental issue

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Spanish Republican philosophers in exile defended the Second Republic, legally proclaimed on April 14, 1931. They embraced the anti-fascist cause rising in the 1920s and the 1930s in Europe. During the Civil War, which lasted three years, they stood among the people. 1939 saw the victory of General Francisco Franco, supported by Nazi Germany and the Italy of Mussolini. Threatened with death, they had no choice but to escape from Spain. Some intellectuals experienced French concentration camps but, for the most part, they found refuge in Latin America, especially in Mexico and Venezuela. In exile, they swore to remain loyal to the Second Republic and to the spirit of the Spanish people. Moved by liberal views and humane ideals, these philosophers belonged to the vanquished, as those everywhere in Europe who rose against Fascist barbarity. As a result, their respective works are still widely unknown today – despite relentless efforts made to promote their thought to a larger audience for over half a century. In addition to the historical context of crisis during the interwar period, the situation of Spanish philosophy itself is suggestive. Indeed, Spanish philosophy was institutionalised at the beginning of the twentieth century only: the Schools of Madrid and Barcelona were created. These politics of cultural and intellectual renovation are first bestowed upon the generation of philosophers I study, born in the 1900s. When the Spanish War erupts, they had become professionals of international recognition. This shows the actual limits of academic philosophy, incapable of acknowledging unorthodox ways of philosophising. The experience of exile itself serves in my opinion as a catalyst: Spanish Republican philosophers in exile seek emancipation from academic conventions to philosophise freely; that is, in Spanish and according to the spirit of the people. No doubt “poetic reason” – the true invention of Spanish Republican exile – stems from this ideal of autonomous thinking.

Considerando a relação História-Cinema, a presente dissertação é uma reflexão sobre a produção cinematográfica anarquista da CNT durante a Guerra Civil Espanhola (1936-1939), a partir da análise de três de seus principais filmes de ficção: Carne de Fieras (1936/1992), Barrios Bajos (1937) e Aurora de Esperanza (1937). Eles foram construídos numa estrutura de narrativa clássica e melodramática e, dotados de temáticas diversas, como o adultério, a prostituição assediada por gangsteres e o drama do desemprego, representam uma iniciativa ímpar na construção de um cinema social, sob o comando de uma poderosa organização anarquista e durante o processo revolucionário. Neste sentido, consideramos também os meandros do desenvolvimento do anarquismo e do cinema espanhóis, cujas singularidades imprimiram uma dinâmica específica àqueles filmes.Considering the relation between History and Cinema, this present dissertation will ponder on the anarchist cinematographic production of CNT during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) through the analysis of three of its most important fiction works: Carne de Fieras (1936/1992), Barrios Bajos (1937) and Aurora de Esperanza (1937). They were structured in a classic and melodramatic narrative and, dealing with several themes, as adultery, gangster-linked prostitution and the misfortune of unemployment, they represent a unique initiative in the construction of a social cinema, under the command of a powerful anarchist organization during the revolutionary process. In this sense, well consider the specifics in the development of Spanish anarchism and cinema, for their singular features have given a specific dynamic to those movies.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Contemporary Central American fiction has become a vital project of revision of the tragic events and the social conditions in the recent history of the countries from which they emerge. The literary projects of Sergio Ramirez (Nicaragua), Dante Liano (Guatemala), Horacio Castellanos Moya (El Salvador), and Ramon Fonseca Mora (Panama), are representative of the latest trends in Central American narrative. These trends conform to a new literary paradigm that consists of an amalgam of styles and discourses, which combine the testimonial, the historical, and the political with the mystery and suspense of noir thrillers. Contemporary Central American noir narrative depicts the persistent war against social injustice, violence, criminal activities, as well as the new technological advances and economic challenges of the post-war neo-liberal order that still prevails throughout the region.
Drawing on postmodernism theory proposed by Ihab Hassan, Linda Hutcheon and Brian MacHale, I argued that the new Central American literary paradigm exemplified by Sergio Ramirez’s El cielo llora por mí, Dante Liano’s El hombre de Montserrat, Horacio Castellanos Moya’s El arma en el hombre and La diabla en el espejo, and Ramon Fonseca Mora’s El desenterrador, are highly structured novels that display the characteristic marks of postmodern cultural expression through their ambivalence, which results from the coexistence of multiple styles and conflicting ideologies and narrative trends. The novels analyzed in this dissertation make use of a noir sensitivity in which corruption, decay and disillusionment are at their core to portray the events that shaped the modern history of the countries from which they emerge. The revolutionary armed struggle, the state of terror imposed by military regimes and the fight against drug trafficking and organized crime, are among the major themes of these contemporary works of fiction, which I have categorized as perfect examples of the post-revolutionary post-modernism Central American detective fiction at the turn of the 21st century.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
A presente dissertação apresenta uma reflexão sobre a relação Cinema-História. O cinema encontrou dificuldades para ser aceito como fonte pelos historiadores, devido à caracterização e à qualificação desta fonte, bem como pelo seu despreparo para analisá-las. Este trabalho problematiza a relação cinema-história, suas possibilidades de interação e reflete sobre estas desde a perspectiva do trabalho do historiador e do seu fazer historiográfico. Parte-se da premissa de que o historiador não pode fechar os olhos para o cinema, seus desafios e os diferentes usos e abusos realizados com a história. Renunciar ao debate e à reflexão implica na perda da função social e política que o fazer historiográfico carrega e dele somos indissociável. Esta dissertação propõe a elaboração de um método de análise Históricocinematográfico, buscando sintetizar as reflexões de diferentes autores das áreas da História e do Cinema. Nossa análise toma como base três filmes que abordam o contexto da Guerra Civil Espanhola. O primeiro filme, ¡Ay, Carmela! (Carlos Saura, 1990), enfoca o conflito através dos dramas e desejos de três atores “mambembes” e sua luta pela sobrevivência. Esta película permite abordar as inter-relações entre arte e guerra e entre o humor presente na atuação dos personagens e nos seus números apresentados frente ao horror de uma guerra e seus traumas. Também são destacados no filme os brigadistas, a presença fascista italiana e o processo de internacionalização do conflito. O segundo filme, Terra e Liberdade (Ken Loach, 1995), aborda a participação e o papel das milícias e, principalmente, as divisões políticas que se formaram no interior do campo republicano (ou antifascista) durante a guerra. O filme permite uma discussão sobre o debate político no interior da esquerda e o contexto no qual é retratado. O terceiro filme, Libertárias (Vicente Aranda, 1996) aborda a atuação das milícias anarquistas no front da Guerra Civil através da história da freira Maria e sua trajetória com um grupo de combatentes anarquistas, retratadas sob um ponto-de-vista coletivo, sem que um personagem assuma um protagonismo principal. A conclusão apresenta elementos comparativos das três películas e reflete sobre a relação Cinema-História e suas implicações na contemporaneidade.This thesis presents a reflection on the relation between Cinema and History. The cinema had difficulty being accepted by historians as a source because of the characterization and qualification of this source, as well as their unwillingness to consider them. This paper discusses the relation between cinema and history and its ability of interaction. It ponders on the subject from the perspective of the historian's work and its historiographical doings. The discussion starts with the premise that the historian can not shut his eyes to the cinema, its challenges and different uses and abuses committed against history. To renounce debate and reflection implies on the loss of the social and political function that the historiographical doing carries, and we are inseparable from it. This thesis proposes the development of a filmhistory method of analysis, seeking to synthesize the reflections of different authors in the areas of History and Cinema. Our analysis is based on three films that address the context of the Spanish Civil War. The first movie is, ¡Ay, Carmela! (Carlos Saura, 1990), which focuses on the conflict through the dramas and desires of three stage actors and their struggle for survival. This film allows us to study the interrelations between art and war and between the humor in the characters’ actions and their plays against the horror of war and its traumas. The brigade and the presence of Italian fascists during the process of internationalization of the conflict are also highlighted by the film. The second film, Land and Freedom (Ken Loach, 1995), addresses the role of the militias and especially the political divisions that emerged within the Republican camp (or fascist) during the war. The film allows a discussion on the political debate within the left and the context in which it is portrayed. The third film, Freedomfighters (Vicente Aranda, 1996) discusses the role of the anarchist militias in the Civil War front through the story of the nun Maria and her journey with a group of anarchist fighters, depicted from a collective point of view without any character on a leading role. The conclusion presents comparative elements of the three films and reflects on the Cinema- History relation and its implications for contemporary society.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
La presente Tesis doctoral se divide en tres bloques bien diferenciados: en el primero se trazan las líneas maestras de la realidad social, económica y política imperante en la provincia de Santa Cruz de Tenerife durante la primera mitad del siglo XX. En el segundo, se aborda el desarrollo de las instituciones políticas (municipales, insulares, provinciales y nacionales) a lo largo del periodo tomando como hilo conductor la supervivencia del clientelismo y el caciquismo sobre el que se asienta el sistema. En el tercero, se estudian todas las manifestaciones de oposición surgidas contra un régimen que margina y oprime a gran parte de la población, tanto en el campo como en la ciudad, aglutinando a todas las orientaciones políticas catalogadas bajo el, tan amplio como confuso, concepto de "izquierdas". Dentro de él tiene una relevancia especial el análisis y caracterización de la resistencia y represión surgida tras la sublevación militar del 18 de julio de 1936.Title of Thesis: THE PROVINCE OF SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE BETWEEN TWO DICTATORSHIPS (1923-1945). HUNGER AND ORDER. The doctoral thesis is divided into three blocks. In the first are traced the main points of the social, economic and political conditions in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife in the first half of the twentieth century. In the second section, is raised the development of political institutions (municipal, insular, provincial and national) during the examined period, taking as a common theme the survival of patronage system and chieftainship. In the third section, I study the opposition emerged against a regime that marginalizes the great majority of the population, both in the country and in the city, uniting all the political directions laid under the concept of the left-wing. The analysis of the repression emerged after the military uprising of July the 18th, 1936, has special relevance. The traditionally dominant class in the province (large landowners and merchants, enriched with the export of bananas) through its network of clientele, dominated all political structures in the province, since the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera. They kept political control during the Second Republic, holding back social reforms in areas where power was lost, and got involved in the coup of July the 18th, 1936, being restored back into the institutions that govern public life.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
AbstractThis chapter explores selected aspects of Tlaxcalan history, showcasing the complexity of human–environment relations that have been affected both by climate change and by colonization and postcolonial domination. I explore historical texts in Nahuatl and Spanish that reveal complex battlegrounds upon which the Tlaxcaltecah strove to maintain control over land and environment, protecting essential components of their well-being and rights within the context of colonial domination. The analyzed sources illustrate the resistance to Spanish settlement and different forms of dispossession, coping with climatic and economic challenges, resisting the expansions of haciendas, securing land and water rights or defending traditional ritual practices. Tying together the common threads of microhistories across longer periods of time, different places and available documentary genres, not only attests to Indigenous agency but also makes us aware of a longer historical process in which some of these battles were won and some were eventually lost. Many of the historical phenomena traced in early modern Tlaxcala can also be linked to contemporary developments, including massive heritage language loss and environmental challenges.

Moyna, María Irene, e Pablo E. Requena. "Chapter 7. Tracing the emergence of the voseo/tuteo semantic split in Río de la Plata second person subjunctives". In Lifespan Acquisition and Language Change, 150–78. Amsterdam: John Benjamins Publishing Company, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.1075/ahs.14.07moy.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This study documents the history of second person singular informal variation in Rioplatense Spanish. It focuses on the competition between voseo and tuteo forms in the subjunctive and proposes that the outcome of this variation can be linked to the acquisition of these forms by children. In contrast with other verb forms in the variety, which eradicated tuteo progressively, in the subjunctive tuteo prevailed in epistemic contexts, while voseo continued to be possible in deontic contexts. By combining data from the historical record (Study 1) with converging data from contemporary children acquiring the same structures (Study 2), we show that the subjunctive forms most likely to select tuteo are acquired later, making them more susceptible to normative influence. Because changes in the second singular present subjunctive coincided with the spread of public education in the region, we argue that the semantic split resulted from the interaction of linguistic, social, and developmental factors, and sketch a sociohistorical account for the actuation of this change.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The study focuses on the Spanish influenza pandemic of 1918/19, tracing the crisis coverage of two daily newspapers from two different countries, Austria and the United States, to reveal the general dynamics and manipulative potential of mediatized public discourse in times of crisis. The pragma-rhetoric analysis examines, first, which social actors gain access to the media to voice their opinion and, second, how they attempt to manipulate public perception to avoid blame, for example, by instrumentalizing certain groups as scapegoats. The results of the cross-national comparison of the two historic newspapers reveal patterns in crisis reporting on the Spanish flu that are intriguingly reminiscent of contemporary media coverage of the recent Corona Pandemic.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
AbstractWith all the panic about how the contemporary political and media landscape is awash with ‘fake news’, and the attempted response to that through fastidious ‘fact checks’, the late Hayden White’s lifelong exhortation to consider history as stories crafted by historians using fragments of the past must surely seem untimely. In his final scholarly intervention, White doubles down on this line, urging historians to consider practical uses of the past beyond the cloistered confines of disciplinary History (with a big ‘H’). Drawing on my experiences as a teacher in higher education, I want to show how practical pasts are regularly constructed: we are always selecting from fragments, stringing together facts, amplifying dramatic scenes, and muting minutiae. In other words, given the constraints of time and space—not to mention attention spans and working memory—teaching obliges us to treat the past in a practical manner.

Camporeale, Antonio. "Spanish ‘Plastic’ Architecture. A critical reading and design approach." In 8º Congreso Internacional de Arquitectura Blanca - CIAB 8. Valencia: Universitat Politècnica València, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/ciab8.2018.7594.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The following critical text proposes a series of notes and reflections on the reinforced concrete architecture, not on the material itself. Since its invention, concrete has combined two potentialities, deriving from the two materials of which it is composed: the ‘elastic’ potential, which has been developed and has reached a consolidated form and tradition, and the ‘plastic’ one. The last one has been little experienced at the beginning and, in the course of recent history of architecture, has found space in architectural criticism in the meaning of "expressive", "brutalist", "sculptural", ending up to influence 'superficially' (related to the surface) of architecture. The 'plastic' architecture, instead, is three-dimensional and unifies the construction and spatial qualification in a single design gesture. This critical approach not only allows reconsidering the history of modern/contemporary architecture starting from the necessary collaboration between space and construction that unifies the final judgment on the works, but allows influencing the project, adhering to a formative process of those geographic-cultural areas that possess those certain characters, the masonry one. The Spanish "plastic" architecture is, in that sense, a clear example: in many buildings this "masonry" character is clearly identified, due to the architectural exploitation of the reinforced concrete plastic potential.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
than the ones the students is accustomed to, are all some of the outcomes of participating in a study abroad program. Understanding the value of travel, our college started a study abroad program two years ago. Currently preparing for our third semester in Barcelona, we have been assessing what has worked and what has not so we can adapt and evolve to keep the program fresh and relevant. This paper will cover our pedagogy and process, the type of classes we taught and the reasons behind them but more than anything, the way it has changed the participating students when compared to those who have not participated in a program of this type. The semester was divided into four courses: ARC394-Places and Culture, was designed to function as a walking tour of the city of Barcelona, where the students learned on the go by visiting sites following a chronological history of the city that took place throughout the semester. ARC494-Contemporary Architecture Practice, took place in both the classroom and by visiting contemporary architecture sites. The course was taught by EMBT (Enric Miralles and Benedetta Tagliabue) as an opportunity for the students to learn the design thinking and process behind the main project of a working architectural firm as they take an idea from sketch to construction. ARC581-Contemporary Spanish Architecture, offered the student the opportunity to visit: Seville, Cordoba, Granada, Bilbao, Madrid, Figueres and Olot on walking tours covering the history of these locations from an architectural and design perspective from antiquity to modernity. And finally, ARC501-401, a vertical design studio where the student was able to bring all the classes together to design a project in the city of Barcelona, putting to the test, how their experiences influenced their designs. All of these courses where designed to work together creating an interdependent system that allowed the participants to learn through experiencing architecture and design, while being able to implement that newly learned design knowledge into site and cultural specific design projects.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
<p>Poniatowski Bridge and Viaduct across Vistula River in Warsaw, Poland was damaged during I and II World War and rebuild after them. Total length of the bridge is 504.00 m and of the viaduct is 701.00 m. From 50- ties XX century up to now both of them were modernized 3 times at least. The piers and foundations are more than 100 years old. Concrete girders of the viaduct (35 spans) are in similar age but were repaired in 80-ties. The frame concrete stiffeners were exchanged in that time as well as the deck (steel gird with concrete plate). The same kind of deck is placed on steel girders of four truss spans and four arch spans of the bridge. The first ones are 30 years old but the second one serve from 1946. During this long history everything was changed – materials, traffic loads and environmental requirements about vibration of structure and noise generated by trams and cars. Bicycle traffic also groves rapidly. All of these factors force modernization according to contemporary requirements but against many conservation regulations.</p>

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The Spanish American War of 1898 and the colonization of the Spanish Caribbean (Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic) by the Government of the United States (U.S.), brought about changes to local vernacular housing. The Spanish colonizers substituted indigenous traditional means and methods of construction and replaced them with continental techniques and new materials. The U.S. occupation produced yet another transformation through the extensive use of portland cement which became the protagonist for their new domestic architecture. Even though cement had been introduced into the region two decades prior, to build industrial structures and through the importation of pre-manufactured new materials made with cement, it was slowly accepted for residential buildings, being promoted as fireproof, vermin-proof, and with the strength to resist hurricanes and earthquakes. Erection methods were faster, the dwellings were lighter, and built with the use of repetitive methods facilitated by reusable molds. Catalogs produced in each of these territories with the new prefabricated cement architectural elements would maintain the essence of the vernacular translated into cement and reinforced concrete. These architectural evolutions are traced with the use of historic archival materials: cartography, architectural layouts, photography, and extant contemporary representations.

<p>The Floraliahall in Ghent was built during 1912-1913 as part of a series of large infrastructure works for the world exposition of 1913. The main structure of the hall consists of 18 portal frames having 3 spans of 10.16, 40.18 and 10.16 m. The upper part of the structure is highly slender. Adversely to the customary concepts of 100 years ago, the lighter frames at 7.45 m distance, are hinged twice at the springs, whereas the more heavy frames, at 15 m distance, are completely clamped at their base. In addition, measurements show that crosssections of compressed parts have larger area than the tensile parts. From the structural point of view, these frames sometimes have an unexpected composition. The aim was to determine whether this structure can comply with contemporary requirements and codes. From measurements and simulations follows that in limited areas high stresses appear, unacceptable even in serviceability state. This may be partly due to modifications of the roof that were made inappropriately, from the uncertainty to assess certain details with the model and from ineffective analysis at the time of construction.</p>

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Mindful of history’s value in providing context for contemporary issues, this essay compares selected issues surrounding the effectiveness of government messaging during COVID-19 with previous pandemics and epidemics on selected public policy choices, specifically addressing the role of disinformation, misinformation, and information suppression in contending with disease outbreaks. During the Spanish Flu of 1918, governments worldwide ignored the crisis and suppressed information on the pandemic, because they were concerned that it would interfere with the ongoing war effort. Similar to the impacts of COVID-19, leaders dismissed science in favor of ideology which occurred in the cold war era for several reasons, and with profound impacts. In the case of the Cold War, anti-Communist hysteria led Dr. Albert Sabin to test his anti-polio vaccine in the Soviet Union as opposed to the United States. In exploring various historical parallels to COVID-19, this essay also explores racism, ethnocentrism, and various forms of othering that have historically characterized the response to pandemics, often assigning blame to various “outside” groups. The essay concludes by arguing for science-based solutions to pandemic emergencies (as opposed to ideological-oriented objectives) and argues for a fair, prudent, and judicious balancing of cherished individual rights and individual autonomy, a collective science-based response to public health emergencies, and with the intent to protect the public health of all Americans in a fair, inclusive and equitable manner.

In FORTMED2020 - Defensive Architecture of the Mediterranean. Valencia: Universitat Politàcnica de València, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/fortmed2020.2020.11345.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Restoration and consolidation of the top portion of castel Penede in Nago (Trento) on Lake Garda. A project of knowledgeCastel Penede is located on a rocky spur, the farthest north-west extension of Monte Baldo, protruding to close up the pass from Upper Garda to Adige Valley, protecting the Torbole harbour. The structure of the fortified complex spans over a period of almost five centuries, from the twelfth to the sixteenth century, in an area featuring an at least bi-millennial settlement sequence. The path of knowledge started in 2008 with the historic and stratigraphic analysis. The carrying out of the executive project will turn out to be of a cultural interest, as the removal of the collapsed material will be effected, found in the most ancient rooms which will be then revamped and restored. These works will bring to light some structures (walls, architectonic elements, flooring plans, plasters, vaults and staircases...) which shall be studied, filed and reported as stratigraphic units to update the analysis of the elevations previously carried out. The knowledge methodology adopted to get comprehension of the castle according to scientific methods will be then carried on. The investigations on the architectures have highlighted the relevance of the stratigraphic analysis meant not only as a fundamental aspect of the path of knowledge of a historical building, but also as a basic step to preserve the cultural heritage piece. This will safeguard the readability of the constructed item and of its morphological-stratigraphic connections to the extent of making the traces of the contemporary works on the built item itself both evident and acknowledgeable during the treatment of the walls’ surface joints. These operations carried out by skilled workers can be nearly classified as a specialised service which is often not adequately matched in the work practice. It is essential to point out the role of knowledge: knowledge of the item means you know how to restore it.
