Download or read book La m sica del siglo XX written by Francisco Ramos and published by Turner. This book was released on 2016-04 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Partiendo de Debussy y llegando a Steve Reich. O empezando por Ablinger y acabando por Zimmerman. O arrancando en el impresionismo y siguiendo hasta la electroacústica. El lector puede elegir su forma de lectura en este libro torrencial, quizá el más completo escrito hasta la fecha, y no solo en español, sobre el complicado y muy diverso escenario de la música contemporánea durante el siglo XX. Vertebrada sobre itinerarios estéticos, la presente guía no deja de ser una historia de la música del siglo XX. La gran diferencia respecto a los manuales de historia estriba en la importancia que en este libro cobra el compositor, que junto al sonido es el eje fundamental del relato. (De la Introducción del autor). Relato es la palabra clave para un libro llamado a convertirse en un clásico: una obra llena de erudición, exhaustiva y utilísima como manual de referencia. Pero impregnada a la vez de amor por la música, de buen pulso narrativo y de una notable capacidad crítica.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Cómo explicar a nuestros hijos el siglo que acaba de terminar y la herencia, a veces dolorosa, que nos ha legado? ¿Cómo explicar la complejidad de las dos guerras mundiales, de la descolonización, de la diversidad de los regímenes políticos, de la ambivalencia del progreso tanto económico como social? Respondiendo a estas preguntas, Marc Ferro dibuja la trayectoria de un siglo XX jalonado de tragedias y de utopías, lleno de matices y de contradicciones. Evoca los grandes acontecimientos que han marcado el siglo y se acerca a las definiciones de genocidio y totalitarismo con pedagogía y clarividencia. Una presentación alerta y vivaz del siglo pasado y de las claves para comprender el presente.

Download or read book The Palgrave International Handbook on Adult and Lifelong Education and Learning written by Marcella Milana and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 1049 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook provides a wide-ranging frame of reference for researching adult and lifelong education and learning. With contributions from scores of established and newer scholars from six continents, the volume covers a diverse range of geopolitical and social territories across the world. Drawing on the multiple heritages that underpin research on education and learning in adulthood, this Handbook addresses the inner tensions between adult education, adult learning, lifelong education, and lifelong learning, by using current research and theorizations from disciplinary backgrounds, including philosophy, psychology, biology and neuroscience, anthropology, sociology, history, political science, and economics. It provides an explicit discussion of the differences and tensions between adult and lifelong education and learning, and locates these in different policy and historical contexts, theories and practices. It explores a variety of discipline-based theoretical perspectives, and highlights how these have influenced, and been influenced by, research in the education and learning of adults. The Handbook also explores the inevitable frictions and dilemmas these present, and carefully examines the role of the international dimension in researching education and learning in formal, non-formal and informal contexts, beyond traditional schooling. This state-of-the-art, comprehensive Handbook is the first of its kind to explore adult education, lifelong education and lifelong learning fully as distinct activities on an international scale. It will be an indispensable reference resource for students of education at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, and for academic researchers, professionals and policy-makers concerned with adult and community education, further and vocational education, or work-based training and human resource development.

Download or read book La Plenitud de Los Tiempos written by Alberto Castllo Vicci and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En el siglo XX se dieron m�s cambios en la vida del hombre que durante el millar de a�os del Imperio Romano o en los 100.000 a�os de la Edad de Piedra. Estos cambios se debieron m�s a los descubrimientos de la ciencia y a los inventos de la tecnolog�a que a las dos guerras mundiales, totalitarismos, genocidios y etnocidios que conmocionaron la primera mitad de la centuria o a la Guerra Fr�a, durante la segunda mitad, que dividi� al mundo entre dos bloques industriales-militares incompatibles y opuestos que se promet�an el triunfo de uno sobre la destrucci�n total del otro; valga decir, capitalismo en Occidente y socialismo en Oriente, con la ominosa posibilidad de incendiar el planeta, en cualquier momento, en el Armaged�n termonuclear, poniendo fin a toda l a vida en la tierra. Detr�s de cada descubrimiento y de cada invento, por lo general, estuvo la genialidad de un gran hombre. Esta novela trata la historia del siglo XX a trav�s del desarrollo de cuatro tendencias del conocimiento humano: la teor�a f�sica de la mec�nica cu�ntica, la evoluci�n biol�gica, la epistemolog�a y la computaci�n. Valga decir, de la realidad, la vida, el conocimiento y los procedimientos t�cnicos. En la presente biograf�a se narra el desarrollo de estas tendencias en el siglo XX, como fondo cultural de la vida de Manuel Montemayor Vallarta. Aunque, a falta de informaci�n he tenido que recurrir a la imaginaci�n para llenar el vac�o de c�mo han debido ser algunas circunstancias de la vida de nuestro biografiado, partiendo de mi conocimiento de personajes, hechos, costumbres y pensamiento de la �poca. De manera que en lugar de una biograf�a, el lector quiz�s lo que tiene en sus manos es una novela hist�rica, de la historia del pensamiento y de las ideas, tanto como de hechos ocurridos en la �ltima centuria del milenio alrededor de la concepci�n actual de la realidad y el papel que ocupa el homo sapiens en el Universo. Pues, algunas circunstancias y personajes de los que se narran son aut�nticos y otros son imaginados. Aun as�, esperamos que le motiven a mayores lecturas sobre el legado que nos dej� el siglo XX, pues ese legado determina nuestros d�as.

Download or read book Remaking Communities and Adult Learning written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-05-09 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What responses is adult education providing to the great global problems: climate change and the environment, populism and racism, gender inequality, social and economic inequality? The ESREA Research Network between Local and Global – Adult Learning and Communities and the authors collected here argue for socially engaged community-based research which promotes critical democracy and popular education and drives powerful research methodologies: participatory research, feminist research, ecological research activism, posthumanist research, and more. The first part of the book looks back and forwards to the contribution to adult learning and community development played by participatory research in the making and remaking of community and society. In the second part, the focus shifts to pedagogies of possibility and change, knowledge creation and the transformation of pedagogies of inclusion. The third part, on activism and change, turns its attention to the motivations for activism and their individual and collective forms of expression. The final part considers re-making and 'doing' society and community, in particular during the COVID-19 pandemic. For researchers interested in participatory and emancipatory social research, gender and biography research, or community-university research partnerships, Remaking Communities and Adult Learning presents adult learning as a site of resistance for sustainable and creative andragogic practice.

Download or read book This Side of Philosophy written by Stephen Gingerich and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2023-02-01 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Struck by the contrast between the prestige of their literary tradition and their apparent philosophical insignificance, modern writers from Spain have devoted themselves to exploring the relation between literature and philosophy. This Side of Philosophy focuses on four major authors—Miguel de Unamuno, José Ortega y Gasset, Antonio Machado, and María Zambrano—who engage literary resources in order to reach beyond philosophy to the essential sources of life. Connecting their work to that of other European thinkers dedicated to illuminating the fertile interaction of literature and philosophy—especially Plato, Schlegel, Heidegger, and Derrida—Stephen Gingerich makes a case for the relevance of Spanish thought to contemporary efforts to expand the ethical and theoretical powers of thinking through literature. At the same time, Gingerich challenges the conventional view that contemporary Spanish thought fuses or reconciles literature and philosophy, instead discerning a call to appreciate their difference in relation. For these writers, literature and philosophy are repulsed by each other as inexorably as they are drawn together.

Download or read book Historia Patria written by Carolyn P. Boyd and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy in 1875 and ending with the death of General Francisco Franco in 1975, this book explores the intersection of education and nationalism in Spain. Based on a broad range of archival and published sources, including parliamentary and ministerial records, pedagogical treatises and journals, teachers' manuals, memoirs, and a sample of over two hundred primary and secondary school textbooks, the study examines ideological and political conflict among groups of elites seeking to shape popular understanding of national history and identity through the schools, both public and private. A burgeoning literature on European nationalisms has posited that educational systems in general, and an instrumentalized version of national history in particular, have contributed decisively to the articulation and transmission of nationalist ideologies. The Spanish case reveals a different dynamic. In Spain, a chronically weak state, a divided and largely undemocratic political class, and an increasingly polarized social and political climate impeded the construction of an effective system of national education and the emergence of a consensus on the shape and meaning of the Spanish national past. This in turn contributed to one of the most striking features of modern Spanish political and cultural life--the absence of a strong sense of Spanish, as opposed to local or regional, identity. Scholars with interests in modern European cultural politics, processes of state consolidation, nationalism, and the history of education will find this book essential reading.

Download or read book Postcolonial and Gender Perspectives in Irish Studies written by Marisol Morales Ladrón and published by Netbiblo. This book was released on 2007 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents an attempt to tackle questions related to fragmented and often conflicting ideologies within Irish studies. Although a collective outcome, with contributions in English and Spanish, its unifying concern has been the appliance of postcolonial and gender perspectives to the analysis of Irish literature (prose, drama and verse) and cinema, as well as to the aesthetic production of both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. Along the volume, while some authors have chosen to delve into the broad theoretical debate concerning the position of Irish studies within postcolonial and feminist theories, others offer detailed examinations of specific literary pieces and authors that fit in this panorama. All in all, the chapters are wide and diverse enough to trace a spatial and temporal map of the evolution of these paradigms within contemporary Irish studies, North and South of the border.
