Download or read book El Hombre Azar o Dise o written by José Francisco Martinez Garcia and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "El hombre ¿azar o diseño?" En esta obra se hace una exposición sucinta de fenómenos y elementos materiales que conforman el universo y, por tanto, también al ser humano, como un ser que tiene cuerpo y vida, y por ello sometido a leyes físicas y biológicas, pero que se desempeña trascendiendo esta clase de leyes. El hombre no puede tener su origen sólo en la materia bruta. Los acontecimientos del cosmos que le preceden, tampoco justifican suficientemente su existencia y su naturaleza, que desborda y trasciende la materia. Siendo el hombre un ser inteligente, su existencia demanda una causa inteligente, superior a él, causa que no se encuentra ni en el azar ni en la materia. En este entramado se conjugan la filosofía, la ciencia, el arte, la historia y la religión.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LA ESCALERA QUE TE LLEVARÁ DE REGRESO AL HOGAR Agustin Garcia Muñiz Hacia el año 2000, cuando se suponía que todo apuntaba para el fin del mundo y su humanidad por quinta ocasión, algo inesperado pasó que dejó en suspenso todos esos planes, para sorpresa de muchos y disgusto de algunos. Este cambio de planes se debió a importantes decisiones tomadas por las partes superiores de los seres humanos, quienes están a cargo de este planeta. Tal decisión consistió en optar por continuar por el camino de la evolución, antes que por el de la autodestrucción. Esto significa que esta humanidad ha decidido iniciar su proceso de ascension, junto con el del planeta Tierra. A partir de la cancelación de las catastróficas profecías, llegó la nueva energía al planeta, y con ella el cambio individual se volvió una prioridad, aunque no por ello obligatorio. Sin embargo, por diferencia de vibraciones, quienes no logren elevar suficientemente la suya, preferirían abandonar el planeta para posteriormente regresar en calidad de índigos, con lo que aceptar el cambio les será mucho más fácil. Muchas almas que han estado aquí en calidad de observadores, simplemente se irán para no volver pues su trabajo ha terminado. Para todo aquellos seres que se quedarán a apoyar el proceso de la ascension, les hemos preparado esta magnífica herramienta que hemos llamado la escalera, con la cual podrán ascender tan rápido como se lo propongan, en el menor tiempo posible. Cuando te decidas a subirla, con intención pura, te darás cuenta que al fin el rompecabezas de tu vida se empieza a armar, y una vez que la hayas subido, tendrás la sensación de haber llegado a descansar a tu dulce hogar luego de una ardua jornada. Por ahora yo me encuentro muy ocupado subiéndola, y te invito a que te abandones al cambio, y hagas lo mismo. ¡Tu vida jamás será la misma!

Download or read book Hispanic and Luso Brazilian Detective Fiction written by Renée W. Craig-Odders and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2006-03-20 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The image of the hard-boiled private investigator from gritty pulp fiction, a terse and mysterious figure, has become increasingly universal as the detective novel crosses more and more borders. A booming genre in Latin America, Spain and other Hispanic cultures, detective fiction has transcended the limitations of its influences. Hispanic authors relatively new to the genre have published novels and series popular with the public, while a number of well-known writers have adapted the genre to reflect the concurrent globalization of modern society and the crimes within it. This volume presents a compilation of 11 critical essays on genero negro--contemporary detective fiction in the Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian canon. Surveying the last twenty years, the text analyzes emerging trends in this rapidly evolving genre, as well as the mutations and innovations taking place within the style. The first section of the book is dedicated to the detective fiction of Spain and Portugal. The second section surveys works from Latin America and the United States, where topics touch on universal subjects like crime, identity and feminism.
Download or read book Democracy and Sovereignty in Spain written by Francisco J. Bellido and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-03 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delves into the conceptual changes produced by the Spanish constitutional debate held between 27 August and 9 December 1931. Taking place at the beginning of Spain’s Second Republic, those parliamentary deliberations brought about significant novelties in the political vocabulary. Concepts such as democracy, sovereignty, reform, revolution, and freedom, among others, were re-signified. This study investigates the conceptual contributions made by Spanish MPs in the course of the constitutional debate of 1931 by assuming, as a research approach, an interdisciplinary stance combining conceptual history, political theory, and parliamentary constitutional history. By doing so, it selects five determining issues: the pervasive discussion about two competing meanings of a democratic state; the rhetorical uses of reform and revolution; conceptual controversies about religious freedom; the disputed idea of property rights; and the functions of parliament and the president of the republic in a semi-presidential regime. The constitutional debate was largely inspired by interwar European constitutionalism which constituent representatives used to update the Spanish constitutional tradition. With that goal in mind, this book is aimed at undergraduate and graduate students and scholars working in the fields of conceptual history, political philosophy, parliamentary history, European political history, and European constitutionalism.
