Download or read book La s Escuela s de Salamanca Proyecciones y contextos hist ricos written by Miguel Anxo PENA GONZÁLEZ and published by Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta nueva edición de la Miscelánea Alfonso IX informa de las actividades realizadas por el Centro de Historia Universitaria Alfonso IX (CEHU), Centro Propio de la Universidad de Salamanca, a lo largo del año 2009. Se presenta, en esta ocasión, con el título monográfico de «Universidades Hispánicas: colegios y conventos universitarios en la Edad Moderna (II)», por ser el tema que articuló los XVI Coloquios Alfonso IX, celebrados en los meses de febrero, marzo y abril de 2009, y cuyas actas se publican en la primera sección del libro. Con estos Coloquios, organizados en forma de ciclo de conferencias/ponencias y seminarios de investigación en la Facultad de Geografía e Historia de la Universidad de Salamanca, se continúan y completan una serie de Jornadas científicas, dedicadas al estudio de distintos modelos de colegios y conventos universitarios, y a su interacción con su entorno, en el ámbito territorial hispánico y en el marco cronológico preferente del llamado Antiguo Régimen o período Moderno. Los trabajos resultantes de los XVI Coloquios Alfonso IX, que ahora publicamos, tratan sobre distintos modelos de Colegios y Conventos-Universidad en el marco peninsular, es decir, sobre instituciones universitarias de fundación eclesiástica o particular, con bulas de erección o de ortorgamiento de grados, y reconocimiento regio posterior en la mayor parte de los casos, que tuvieron su fundamentación y mantuvieron vínculos con un colegio o convento preexistente, según la historiografía clásica de universidades. Todas estas universidades también pueden calificarse de «menores» por su limitada función institucional y social, y en relación con otras universidades de mayor proyección, a veces situadas en su entorno, y en particular con las «mayores» de Salamanca, Valladolid y Alcalá. De esta forma, diversos especialistas trazan, en la primera sección del libro, el estado de la cuestión historiográfico de estos centros de estudios; nos presentan una síntesis panorámica de su trayectoria histórica, deteniéndose en los aspectos más significativos y diferenciadores, y nos informan de la bibliografía de consulta. Así, y en relación con el modelo de Colegio-Universidad, se recogen los estudios de Inmaculada Arias de Saavedra Alías (de la Universidad de Granada) sobre Baeza, y de Manuel Casado Arboniés (Universidad de Alcalá) sobre Sigüenza. Por lo que se refiere al modelo de Convento-Universidad, se incluyen los trabajos de Mario Martínez Gomis (Universidad de Alicante) sobre Orihuela, y de José Carlos Vizuete Mendoza (Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha) sobre Almagro. Siguen a este bloque de contenidos los estudios presentados en los dos seminarios de investigación que se organizaron en el marco de dichos XVI Coloquios Alfonso IX: Agustín Vivas Moreno (Universidad de Extremadura) plantea, en su trabajo, la necesidad de la creación de Centros de Información y Documentación en Historia Universitaria, y establece una planificación para el establecimiento de estos Centros; mientras que Miguel Anxo Pena González (Universidad Pontificia de Salamanca) analiza los acontecimientos históricos y momentos historiográficos determinantes en la configuración e identificación del concepto «Escuela de Salamanca». En la sección miscelánea de Líneas de Investigación, presentamos, en primer lugar, tres trabajos referidos a la Universidad de Salamanca y sus instituciones: Francisco Javier Alejo Montes (Universidad de Extremadura) elabora una lista completa de los catedráticos que impartieron docencia en la Universidad salmantina entre los años 1575 y 1598, fechas delimitadas por el trabajo recopilatorio realizado en el mismo sentido por otros investigadores. Margarita Ruiz Maldonado (Universidad de Salamanca) estudia diferentes obras artísticas del período Moderno que reflejan la postura continuada del Estudio salmantino a favor de la declaración del dogma de la Inmaculada Concepción. Y León Gómez Rivas (Universidad Europea de Madrid) nos presenta la correspondencia dirigida, en tiempos de la Guerra de Independencia, al rector del Colegio de los Irlandeses, Patrick Curtis, y al que sería su sucesor, Patrick Mangan. Siguen, a continuación, otros tres estudios referidos a otras universidades y ámbitos culturales del espacio hispánico. José María Lahoz Finestres (Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria) cuantifica la población estudiantil de la Universidad de Huesca en el siglo XVII, centrando su atención en los estudiantes que no obtuvieron ningún grado académico y en sus posibilidades de promoción. Por su parte, Alberto Navas Blanco (Universidad Central de Venezuela) traza los antecedentes históricos del Archivo de la Universidad Central de Venezuela y se refiere al proceso de sistematización y automatización que se está llevando a cabo en el mismo. Por último, Martha Elizabeth Laguna Enrique (becaria de investigación en la Universidad de Salamanca) estudia la figura del obispo Juan José Díaz de Espada, de formación salmantina, una de las figuras determinantes en la introducción de las ideas ilustradas en Cuba. Se cierran los contenidos de la Miscelánea Alfonso IX, como en otras ocasiones, con la información sobre el Centro de Historia Universitaria Alfonso IX referida al año 2009: memoria anual de sus actividades; donaciones registradas con destino a la Biblioteca del Centro, y publicaciones vinculadas al mismo. En dicho año 2009 culminó el Proyecto de Investigación financiado por el Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia y Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (FEDER), con la referencia HUM2006-03160/HIST, vinculado al Centro Alfonso IX. Por otra parte, se iniciará, a principios de 2010, el desarrollo de un nuevo Proyecto de Investigación del Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (referencia HAR2009-06937), también adscrito al Centro Alfonso IX. Ambas circunstancias han contribuido a hacer posible esta publicación.

Download or read book The North American Mosaic written by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.
Download or read book History of Psychology in Latin America written by Julio César Ossa and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-01 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a cultural history of psychology that analyzes the diverse contexts in which psychological knowledge and practices have developed in Latin America. The book aims to contribute to the growing effort to develop a theoretical knowledge that complements the biographical perspective centered on the great figures, with a polycentric history that emphasizes the different cultural, social, economic and political phenomena that accompanied the emergence of psychology. The different chapters of this volume show the production of historians of psychology in Latin America who are part of the Ibero-American Network of Researchers in History of Psychology (RIPeHP, in the Portuguese acronym for "Rede Iberoamericana de Pesquisadores em História da Psicologia"). They present a significant sample of the research carried out in a field that has experienced a strong development in the region in the last decades. The volume is divided into two parts. The first presents comparative chapters that address cross-cutting issues in the different countries of the region. The second part analyzes particular aspects of the development of psychology in seven countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Paraguay and Peru. Throughout these chapters the reader will find how psychology made its way through dictatorial governments, phenomena of violence and internal armed conflict, among others. Dimensions that include rigorous analysis ranging from ancestral practices to current geopolitical knowledge of the Latin American region. History of Psychology in Latin America - A Cultural Approach is an invaluable resource for historians of psychology, anywhere in the world, interested in a polycentric and critical approach. Since its content is part of the "cultural turn in psychology" it is also of interest to readers interested in the social and human sciences in general. Finally, the thoroughly international perspective provided through its chapters make the book a key resource for both undergraduate and graduate teaching and education on the past and current state of psychology.

Download or read book Translation and the Spanish Empire in the Americas written by Roberto A. Valdeón and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2014-11-15 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two are the starting points of this book. On the one hand, the use of Doña Marina/La Malinche as a symbol of the violation of the Americas by the Spanish conquerors as well as a metaphor of her treason to the Mexican people. On the other, the role of the translations of Bartolomé de las Casas’s Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias in the creation and expansion of the Spanish Black Legend. The author aims to go beyond them by considering the role of translators and interpreters during the early colonial period in Spanish America and by looking at the translations of the Spanish chronicles as instrumental in the promotion of other European empires. The book discusses literary, religious and administrative documents and engages in a dialogue with other disciplines that can provide a more nuanced view of the role of translation, and of the mediators, during the controversial encounter/clash between Europeans and Amerindians.
Download or read book At the Origins of Modernity written by José María Beneyto and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-30 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on an international project conducted by the Institute for European Studies of the University CEU San Pablo in Madrid and a seminar on Vitoria and International Law which took place on July 2nd 2015 in the convent of San Esteban, the place where Vitoria spent his most productive years as Chair of Theology at the University of Salamanca. It argues that Vitoria not only lived at a time bridging the Middle Ages and Modernity, but also that his thoughts went beyond the times he lived in, giving us inspiration for meeting current challenges that could also be described as “modern” or even post-modern. There has been renewed interest in Francisco de Vitoria in the last few years, and he is now at the centre of a debate on such central international topics as political modernity, colonialism, the discovery of the “Other” and the legitimation of military interventions. All these subjects include Vitoria’s contributions to the formation of the idea of modernity and modern international law. The book explores two concepts of modernity: one referring to the post-medieval ages and the other to our times. It discusses the connections between the challenges that the New World posed for XVIth century thinkers and those that we are currently facing, for example those related to the cyberworld. It also addresses the idea of international law and the legitimation of the use of force, two concepts that are at the core of Vitoria’s texts, in the context of “modern” problems related to a multipolar world and the war against terrorism. This is not a historical book on Vitoria, but a very current one that argues the value of Vitoria’s reflections for contemporary issues of international law.

Download or read book Scholastica Colonialis written by Roberto Hofmeister Pich and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a collection of studies on Latin American scholasticism originally presented at the Fourth International Conference of Medieval Philosophy at the Pontificia Universidade Catolica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS), Porto Alegre, Brazil, November 12-14, 2012. These essays provide a significant overview of authors, works and areas of interest associated to scholastic thought in the 16th-18th centuries, focusing particularly on Latin American or European-born authors whose philosophical and theological careers were significantly set in Latin American soil and, due to their education, reveal a profound acquaintance with European philosophical theories and problems. The reception and development of Medieval thought in Baroque scholasticism, the connections between European philosophy, mainly Iberian scholasticism, and philosophical-theological debates in the New World, and the revisiting by Latin American scholars of Medieval schools of thought and theoretical patterns taught in Europe, prompted by the encounter with several peoples living in the new continent and the search and justification for models of colonization, are some of the relevant issues discussed in here. The studies collected in this volume place colonial scholasticism in the history of ideas by letting authors and their writings speak for themselves.
Download or read book Biological Control in Latin America and the Caribbean written by Joop C. van Lenteren and published by CABI. This book was released on 2019-12-21 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book summarizes the history of biological control in Latin America and the Caribbean. Few publications provide historical detail and the records are, therefore, fragmented until now. By bringing information together in this book, we offer a more complete picture of important developments in biological control on this continent. There are a wealth of text, tables and references about the history of such projects, and which were succesful and which failed. This will help plan future biocontrol projects. An overview is provided of the current situation in biological control for many Latin American and Caribbean countries, revealing an astonishing level of practical biological control applied in the regio, making it the largest area under biological control worldwide. The final part describes new developments and speculates about the future of biological control in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Download or read book The Diario of Christopher Columbus s First Voyage to America 1492 1493 written by and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This definitive edition of Columbus's account of the voyage presents the most accurate printed version of his journal available to date. Unfortunately both Columbus's original manuscript, presented to Ferdinand and Isabella along with other evidence of his discoveries, and a single complete copy have been lost for centuries. The primary surviving record of the voyage-part quotation, part summary of the complete copy-is a transcription made by Bartolome de las Casas in the 1530s. This new edition of the Las Casas manuscript presents its entire contents-including notes, insertions, and canceled text-more accurately, completely, and graphically than any other Spanish text published so far. In addition, the new translation, which strives for readability and accuracy, appears on pages facing the Spanish, encouraging on-the- spot comparisons of the translation with the original. Study of the work is further facilitated by extensive notes, documenting differences between the editors' transcription and translation and those of other transcribers and translators and summarizing current research and debates on unanswered current research and debates on unanswered questions concerning the voyage. In addition to being the only edition in which Spanish and English are presented side by side, this edition includes the only concordance ever prepared for the Diario. Awaited by scholars, this new edition will help reduce the guesswork that has long plagued the study of Columbus's voyage. It may shed light on a number of issues related to Columbus's navigational methods and the identity of his landing places, issues whose resolution depend, at least in part, on an accurate transcription of the Diario. Containing day-by-day accounts of the voyage and the first sighting of land, of the first encounters with the native populations and the first appraisals of his islands explored, and of a suspenseful return voyage to Spain, the Diario provides a fascinating and useful account to historians, geographers, anthropologists, sailors, students, and anyone else interested in the discovery-or in a very good sea story. Oliver Dunn received the PH.D. degree from Cornell University. He is Professor Emeritus in Purdue University and a longtime student of Spanish and early history of Spanish America. James E. Kelley, Jr., received the M.A. degree from American University. A mathematician and computer and management consultant by vocation, for the past twenty years he has studied the history of European cartography and navigation in late-medieval times. Both are members of the Society for the History of Discoveries and have written extensively on the history of navigation and on Columbus's first voyage, Although they remain unconvinced of its conclusions, both were consultants to the National geographic Society's 1986 effort to establish Samana Cay as the site of Columbus's first landing.
