Book El culto imperial en el mundo romano

Download or read book El culto imperial en el mundo romano written by Marta González Herrero and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La población del Imperio romano construyó la divinidad de los emperadores y miembros de su familia a través de una gran variedad de prácticas que hoy identificamos como "culto imperial". Su desarrollo temporal se sitúa desde la instauración del Principado por Augusto (27 a. C.) hasta la conversión al cristianismo del emperador Constantino en 312, si bien su declive es un proceso lento y progresivo que se prolonga hasta la Antigüedad Tardía (siglos iv-v). Hoy se ha superado la visión del culto imperial como mera vía de legitimación política y expresión de lealtad hacia el emperador, y los historiadores resaltan el papel que jugó en la política de consenso impulsada por el Estado romano para gobernar su Imperio. Esta obra está planteada como un estudio de conjunto sobre el culto imperial en el que religión y política están profundamente imbricadas y cuya evolución es indisociable de la comunidad donde se implanta, bien sea Roma, las provincias o las ciudades y comunidades del Imperio.

Book El Imperio Romano  Entre la Guerra y la Paz  98 211 d  de C

Download or read book El Imperio Romano Entre la Guerra y la Paz 98 211 d de C written by Alejandro Villalobos Martínez and published by Eae Editorial Academia Espanola. This book was released on 2013 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta obra es un estudio comparativo que indaga los niveles de influencia que tuvieron los emperadores Antoninos en el accionar politico del emperador Septimio Severo. El autor construye una vision panoramica del imperio en los siglos I y II rescatando la idea del Estado romano, el que se sustenta en una trilogia del poder compuesta por el Emperador-Senado y Ejercito que ejercen el mando, realidad politico-ideologica que el emperador Septimio Severo replica con parametros similares a sus antecesores Antoninos particularmente en la Politica exterior del imperio. Asimismo, el ejercicio del poder por parte de los emperadores permite preguntarse como Roma establecio limites y fronteras?, la respuesta a esta interrogante el autor la entrega considerando cuatro factores esenciales: la geopolitica, los factores humanos y culturales, el factor ideologico que propician los emperadores y el rol que juega la propaganda imperial en la construccion de la imagen del emperador. Finalmente, presenta un analisis comparativo del funcionamiento de las relaciones internacionales del mundo contemporaneo con la construccion del orbe romano como espacio natural en la antiguedad romana.

  • ISBN : 9781611920499

Download or read book The Rebel written by Leonor Villegas de Magn—n and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 1994-09-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rebel is the memoir of a revolutionary woman, Leonor Villegas de Magnon (1876-1955), who was a fiery critic of dictator Porfirio Diaz and a conspirator and participant in the Mexican Revolution. Villegas de Magnon rebelled against the ideals of her aristocratic class and against the traditional role of women in her society. In 1910 Villegas moved from Mexico to Laredo, Texas, where she continued supporting the revolution as a member of the Junta Revolucionaria (Revolutionary Council) and as a fiery editorialist in Laredo newspapers. In 1913, she founded La Cruz Blanca (The White Cross) to serve as a corps of nurses for the revolutionary forces active from the border region to Mexico City. Many women like Villegas de Magnon from both sides of the border risked their lives and left their families to support the revolution. Years later, however, when their participation had still been unacknowledged and was running the risk of being forgotten, Villegas de Magnon decided to write her personal account of this history. The Rebel covers the period from 1876 through 1920, documenting the heroic actions of the women. Written in the third person with a romantic fervor, the narrative interweaves autobiography with the story of La Cruz Blanca. Until now Villegas de Magnon's written contributions have remained virtually unrecognized - peripheral to both Mexico and the United States, fragmented by a border. Not only does her work attest to the vitality, strength and involvement of women in sociopolitical concerns, but it also stands as one of the very few written documents that consciously challenges stereotyped misconceptions of Mexican Americans held by both Mexicans and Anglo-Americans.

Book A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula

Download or read book A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula written by Fernando Cabo Aseguinolaza and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05-26 with total page 766 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula is the second comparative history of a new subseries with a regional focus, published by the Coordinating Committee of the International Comparative Literature Association. As its predecessor for East-Central Europe, this two-volume history distances itself from traditional histories built around periods and movements, and explores, from a comparative viewpoint, a space considered to be a powerful symbol of inter-literary relations. Both the geographical pertinence and its symbolic condition are obviously discussed, when not even contested. Written by an international team of researchers who are specialists in the field, this history is the first attempt at applying a comparative approach to the plurilingual and multicultural literatures in the Iberian Peninsula. The aim of comprehensiveness is abandoned in favor of a diverse and extensive array of key issues for a comparative agenda. A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula undermines the primacy claimed for national and linguistic boundaries, and provides a geo-cultural account of literary inter-systems which cannot otherwise be explained.

  • Author : Gillian B. Fleming
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2018-04-03
  • ISBN : 3319743473
  • Pages : 365 pages

Download or read book Juana I written by Gillian B. Fleming and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the deep and lengthy crisis of legitimacy triggered by the death of Prince Juan of Castile and Aragon in 1497 and the subsequent ascent of Juana I to the throne in 1504. Confined by historiography and myth to the madwoman’s attic, Juana emerges here as a key figure at the heart of a period of tremendous upheaval, reaching its peak in the war of the Comunidades, or comunero uprising of 1520–1522. Gillian Fleming traces the conflicts generated by the ambitions of Juana’s father, husband and son, and the controversial marginalisation and imprisonment of Isabel of Castile’s legitimate heir. Analysing Juana’s problems and strategies, failures and successes, Fleming argues that the period cannot be properly understood without taking into account the long shadow that Juana I cast over her kingdoms and over a crucial period of transition for Spain and Europe.

Book The Failure of Modern Civilization and the Struggle for a  deep  Alternative

Download or read book The Failure of Modern Civilization and the Struggle for a deep Alternative written by Claudia von Werlhof and published by Beiträge zur Dissidenz. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western civilization is the Utopia of a better and higher life on Earth. The globalization of neo-liberalism proves that this project has failed. The paradigm of «Critical Theory of Patriarchy» explains this failure and discusses alternatives. By confronting the central civilizations in history, the egalitarian, life-oriented matriarchal one, and the hierarchical, nature and life dominating, hostile patriarchal one, we see that 5000 years of patriarchy have «replaced» matriarchies and nature itself by a «progressive» counter-world of «capital». This transformation characterizes «capitalist patriarchy» including «socialism». Its demise is due to the «alchemical» destruction of the world's resources, thought of, theologically legitimized and fetishized as «creation». This violence is not recognized. Elites have, instead, begun with a new «military alchemy», treating the whole Planet as weapon of mass destruction. Hence, the «Planetary Movement for Mother Earth».

Book A History of Western Astrology

Download or read book A History of Western Astrology written by S. J. Tester and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 1987 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Superb general account.' Times Literary Supplement The story of the history of Western astrology begins with the philosophers of Greece in the 5th century BC. To the magic and stargazing of Egypt the Greeks added numerology, geometryand rational thought. The philosophy of Plato and later of the Stoics made astrology respectable, and by the time Ptolemy wrote his textbook the Tetrabiblos, in the second century AD, the main lines of astrological practice as it is known today had already been laid down. In future centuries astrology shifted to Islam only to return to the West in medieval times where it flourished until the shift of ideas during the Renaissance.
