Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde hace dos o tres décadas la historia cultural ocupa un lugar preferente en la escena historiográfica, aunque con desfases cronológicos y distintas modalidades dependiendo de las circunstancias nacionales y, en este sentido, se impone una aproximación comparativa. El presente volumen pretende inscribirse en esta perspectiva, preguntándose por la realidad de un «giro cultural» en la historiografía mundial. Los numerosos colaboradores han aceptado responder a un plan de trabajo en el que, partiendo de la situación historiográfica de cada país, se analicen las modalidades de surgimiento y de estructuración de la historia cultural. La meta buscada no es normativa y contempla un planteamiento que combina el análisis de las obras, las singularidades de las coyunturas historiográficas y la organización de los mercados universitarios.

Download or read book Lenguaje arte y revoluciones ayer y hoy written by Alejandro Cortazar and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2011-05-25 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book depicts new paradigms in Hispanic linguistic, literary and cultural studies. Part I: Literary and Cultural Studies includes eight essays focusing on a new trend of cultural representation attempting to find new meaning(s). They explore a series of reflections on some of those moments – from the period that begins with the cry for independence in 1810 and that spans beyond 2010 – textually translated as new approaches of analysis on the “recollections of things to come.” The contexts examined evince critical occurrences related to periods of change toward democracy and social justice that eventually lead to “revolutionary” or “emancipating” ends, by way of artistic, textual manifestations. Part II: Linguistic and Cultural Studies contains nine articles representative of the most current, ground breaking research on Hispanic linguistics. It focuses on important linguistic and cultural issues pertaining, geographically, to various corners of the Hispanic world, spanning from central Florida and New York City, to Bolivia, and on to the Prince Islands in Turkey. The issues explored include the sociolinguistic and cultural identity of Puerto Ricans in the United States, the pragmatics of humor in Mexican film, the effects of language evolution on modern Spanish, and the acquisition of Spanish by English speakers.

Download or read book Val ncia Cultural Heritage and Sustainable Development Goals written by Ximo Revert and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: University and university students of various disciplines (health, technology and engineering, humanities, social sciences or basic sciences) have set their sights on certain cultural references to return them to the citizenry and invite us to reflect on these manifestations of collective and diachronic solidarity, of how those people in the past did or created things that have contributed to our welfare, but that above all-, they are manifestations of the personal and collective drive of so many people to improve their living conditions and enrich themselves with the creativity of others, thus generating human development. The texts and references presented here are the results of a University Workshop on Cultural Heritage and Human Development. This is a civic reflexive exercise that anyone can do about the cultural and scientific references of their environment or the place they visit.

Download or read book Introduction to C te d Ivoire written by Gilad James, PhD and published by Gilad James Mystery School. This book was released on with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Côte d'Ivoire, or the Ivory Coast, is a country located in West Africa that borders the Gulf of Guinea. It is known for being the world's largest producer of cocoa beans, as well as for its vibrant cultural heritage. The country is home to over 25 million people, with the majority of the population being of African descent. The official language of Côte d'Ivoire is French, although local languages such as Baoulé, Dioula, and Anyin are also spoken. Côte d'Ivoire has a rich history that dates back to pre-colonial times. The country was first colonized by the French in the late 19th century and gained independence in 1960. Since then, it has experienced periods of political instability, including a civil war that lasted from 2002 to 2011. Despite these challenges, Côte d'Ivoire has continued to develop its economy, which is largely driven by agriculture, including the production of coffee, cocoa, and palm oil. The country has also made progress in areas such as education and healthcare, although poverty and inequality persist in many parts of the country.

Download or read book UCRANIA EN SU HISTORIA Y SUS HISTORIAS written by ASOCIACIÓN EUROPEA DE INICIATIVAS PARA UCRANIA and published by GLOBAL SQUARE EDITORIAL S.L.. This book was released on 2023-10-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hasta hace muy poco, en nuestro debate era una rara avis poder escuchar a ucranianos hablar en primera persona de sus experiencias y compartir sus perspectivas, sus anhelos, como el sujeto histórico que conforman. Este libro, anterior a la invasión rusa a gran escala de 2022, surgió en gran medida en respuesta a ello. Era necesario entonces y sigue siéndolo ahora: el futuro de Ucrania como país europeo libre e independiente, un país normal, con una vida digna, sigue desgraciadamente en cuestión. Que se haya traducido al español un libro así, es muy buena noticia: en nuestra lengua y contexto cultural, es aún enorme el vacío de conocimiento sobre Ucrania - y más aún contada por intelectuales ucranianos.Así que por favor lean a estos autores y autoras ucranianas con calma, sin prejuicios ni ideas preconcebidas: escúchenles, tienen mucho que decir, que contar. Quién sabe, quizás se animen después a coger un avión y un tren - esos magníficos trenes ucranianos que me inspiraron a escribir allí - para conocer de primera mano las historias o, mejor aún, experiencias históricas vivas y personajes vivos que fluyen a través de estas páginas.

The series presents interdisciplinary studies harnessing humanistic as well as digital tools to offer innovative approaches to literary studies, linguistics, critical theory and philosophy in the multicultural Ibero-American space of the 21st century. Its three principal lines of research - digital linguistic corpora, experimental linguistics, and the relation between literature, critique and big data - combine data analysis with critical thinking that transcends mere "dataism" and opens new (biopolitical, feminist, decolonial...) perspectives within Digital Humanities.

Download or read book Tree Plantation Extractivism in Chile written by Alejandro Mora-Motta and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-03-29 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how extractivism transforms territories and affects the well-being of rural people, drawing on in-depth fieldwork conducted on tree plantations in Chile. The book argues that pine and eucalyptus monoculture plantations in southern Chile are a form of extractivism representing a mode of nature appropriation that captures large amounts of natural resources to produce wooden-based raw materials with little processing and an export-oriented focus. The book discusses the nexus of extractivism, territorial transformations, well-being, and emerging resistances using a participatory action research methodological approach in the Region of Los Ríos, southern Chile. The findings show how the configuration of an extractivist logging enclave generated a substantial and irrevocable reordering of human-nature relations, resulting in the territorial and ontological occupation of rural places that disrupted the fundamental human needs of peasants and indigenous people. The book maintains that Chile's green growth development approach does not challenge the consolidated tree plantation enclave controlled by large multinationals. Instead, green growth legitimises the extractivist logic. The book draws parallels with other countries and regions to contribute to wider debates surrounding these topics. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of the extractive industries, development studies, political ecology, and natural resource governance.
