Book El paisaje de la arquitectura   The Landscape of Arquitecture

Download or read book El paisaje de la arquitectura The Landscape of Arquitecture written by Mayka García-Hípola and published by Fundación Univ. San Pablo. This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Para El paisaje de la arquitectura la autora ha superado notablemente la contradicción entre una exposición necesariamente lógico-lineal, que facilite la inteligibilidad del contenido, y la extensa complejidad de éste. Complejidad ineludible para una solvente descripción y análisis del conocimiento contemporáneo. Comprometerse con nuestro tiempo histórico conlleva asumir que el paradigma positivista-lógico ha sido envuelto, que no desplazado, por el paradigma de la complejidad. El principio de la causalidad, y la independencia de “causa-efecto” del observador, es cuestionado por el paradigma complejo, para el que en la gestión del conocimiento el propio observador está imputado como un dato o suceso en el propio proceso. La profesora García-Hípola nos conduce por su ensayo a escenarios teórico-críticos a través de su propia experiencia, incluso de su protagonismo en los procesos, reflexiones y cuestiones que analiza. Es desde esa complejidad desde la que reivindica implícitamente en su texto la transversalidad entre autor, espectador, docente y creador, literalmente en las citas referidas a experiencias sobre la obra de El Bosco, o en las que somete al arquitecto a nuevos roles que devienen del comportamiento de la materia como un auténtico ecólogo o los del propio antropólogo que explora la acción del ser humano y sus detritus en el paisaje, como en su proyecto para Villajoyosa, verdadero tratado de “arquitectura de campo”. In The Landscape of Architecture the author has remarkably surpassed the contradiction between a necessarily logical-linear explanation, to facilitate the intelligibility of the content, and its vast complexity. This is an inescapable complexity for a trustworthy description and analysis of contemporary knowledge. Commitment to our historical time involves assuming that the logical positivist paradigm has been wrapped, not displaced, by the paradigm of complexity. The principle of causality, and the independence between “cause and effect” of the observer, is questioned by the complex paradigm, for which, in the management of knowledge, the observer is ascribed as data or event of the process itself. In her essay professor García-Hípola leads us to theoretical-critical scenarios through her own experience, including her protagonism in the processes, reflections, and issues that she analyzes. From this complexity, the transversality between author, spectator, teacher and creator is claimed, literally in the quotes of the experiences about Hieronymus Bosch’s work, or in those where the architect is subjected to new roles that come from matter’s behavior, as a true ecologist, or those of the anthropologist who explores human action and its detritus in the landscape, as in her project for Villajoyosa, veritable treatise of “field architecture”.

Book excerpt: "Puerto" es una novela que cautiva por la sencillez en el lenguaje, la selección de momentos cotidianos narrados con tanto sentimiento, que no puede el lector dejar de identifi carse. Un libro que te lleva de la soledad, decepción e indiferencia, al deseo de encontrarse a sí mismo, volver a las raíces e invita a aventurarse y navegar por un mar de experiencias nuevas. Donde se puede experimentar encuentros desafi antes que envuelven en un suspenso muy bien manejado, a fi n de llegar a buen "Puerto", ese lugar en donde nos sentimos por fi n... nosotros mismos. Nicole, autora cubana, radicada en California, Estados Unidos, comenta que cuando llegó a Mazatlán, respiró nostalgia, raíces, sabores y colores los cuales le inspiraron a dar vida a los personajes mostrando el carácter divertido, ocurrente y temperamental de los "patasaladas" mazatlecos; características que igual nos unen a todos los latinos. La forma en que nos narra y describe la cultura y belleza de Mazatlán, Sinaloa, México; con toques de glamour y algarabía, esa que envuelve al protagonista Leonardo en una sublime historia de amor con una hermosa mujer lugareña; nos invita no solamente a amar, sino a conocer esta hermosa ciudad y sus rincones. Nicole Leónides Ferrán, autora también del libro de auto ayuda "Somos Amor" el cual ya se hace presente en Estados Unidos, México, Sudamérica y Europa. Nos deleita con este su segundo libro "Puerto" compuesto de 400 páginas que no te puedes perder, ya que posee generosos argumentos adaptables perfectamente a guión cinematográfi co, dignos de un bestseller mundial.

Book Configuring Community

Download or read book Configuring Community written by Parvati Nair and published by MHRA. This book was released on 2004 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation "The concept of community has become central to constructions of Spanish identities, since the Transition to democracy. Contemporary Spain witnesses a political, social, and economic resurgence of community, which both cuts across and is prioritized over nation. Yet, few studies of contemporary Spanish culture deal with this concept. This book aims, therefore, to fill a gap in Spanish cultural studies by providing an in-depth analysis of the intersections of theories, narratives and concepts of community identities across a broad range of media. Literature, film, music, and photography are analysed here in order to explore the diverse means by which community is imagined and constructed. This is a strongly interdisciplinary study, bringing together cultural studies and ethnography. The specific 'texts' that are analysed are located within a larger framework provided by Spain's involvement in processes of globalization. Unusual in this study, therefore, is the use of fieldwork and interview, as well as the application of the work of cultural theorists to the Spanish context." "This book, thus, extends the field of Spanish cultural studies through its original and deliberate examination of community; it is equally relevant to a more general reading public, interested in the diverse media covered here." "By the same token, this book is of relevance to scholars in the Arts, Social Sciences, and Humanities, through its exploration and application of the ideas of theorists of modernity, space, and time."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Charles Deering and Ram  n Casas   Charles Deering Y Ram  n Casas

Download or read book Charles Deering and Ram n Casas Charles Deering Y Ram n Casas written by Isabel Coll Mirabent and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-30 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lavishly illustrated, bilingual art book presents drawings by Ramón Casas in the Charles Deering McCormick Library of Special Collections at the Northwestern University Library and oil paintings by Casas from private collections and the Art Institute of Chicago. Charles Deering and Ramón Casas follows the development and dramatic dissolution of a three-way friendship that connected the Spanish painter Ramón Casas (1866–1932); the Chicago industrialist Charles Deering (1852–1927), who was a collector and admirer of Casas’s work as well as a patron of Northwestern University; and the Spanish artist Miguel Utrillo (1862–1934), Casas’s lifelong friend and the father of the French painter Maurice Utrillo. Casas introduced Deering to Sitges, a beach town near Barcelona, Spain, where the latter created a palatial estate with a museum to house his art collection. Miguel Utrillo served as director of the museum. The text explores the treasures housed at Maricel and what happened among the three men that led Casas to abandon Utrillo and Deering to depart Spain, taking his art collection with him.

Book RECUERDOS DE COSAS QUE NUNCA PASARON

Download or read book RECUERDOS DE COSAS QUE NUNCA PASARON written by Jose Luis Nieto Mingo and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-06-11 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La memoria es traicionera y a veces nos juega malas pasadas. Decimos recordar cosas que tal vez nunca ocurrieron, pero eso no hace que nos parezcan menos reales. En Recuerdos de Cosas que Nunca Pasaron José Luis Nieto Mingo no pretende explicar por qué hay cosas que se nos quedan grabadas en la memoria a pesar de que no tienen nada de extraordinario. Se trata más bien de un intento de transmitir imágenes, obsesiones y sentimientos que necesariamente siempre se distorsionan cuando tratamos de contarlos.

Book No Hay Despedidas

Download or read book No Hay Despedidas written by Gloria M. Rodriguez and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-02-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Como poeta Gloria M. Rodríguez empezó escribiendo poemas acerca del amor que sus padres se tenían uno al otro y a su familia. Estos poemas se convirtieron en historias cortas de los desafíos que pasaron durante la guerra y el porque ellos finalmente decidieron formar su hogar en los Estados Unidos después de la guerra civil de España. Después de que muchos amigos le sugirieron y finalmente por una súplica de una sobrina. Gloria recogió todas las memorias y notas adquiridas durante los años. Puso en orden exacto cronológico para contar una historia de verdad en que el amor de la familia puede vencer todos los desafíos de la vida. Notas y comentarios vinieron desde conversaciones con sus padres de sus años juntos y información obtenido de varios miembros de la familia. Con mapas enseñando los caminos tomados por sus padres, luego investigando y tomándolos ella sola para ver como debía haber sido para salir de la lucha en España en1938, se ayudó para contar una historia de verdad con mínimo de fantasía. Gloria hace lo posible para pintar una imagen de la cultura de dos distintos continentes durante los años 1913 hasta 1940 y más allá hasta sus fallecimientos. La historia enseña costumbres del tiempo y la tontería de la guerra traído por frustración, cosas políticas y la economía durante esta época. Encima de todo, enseña el amor verdadero que puede conquistar todos los desafíos de la vida. La historia ha enseñado lo terrible y negativo que paso en esta época. Pero, esta historia de verdad, habla del amor que dos personas tenían durante esta época hasta sus fallecimientos.
