Download or read book Padres y madres en serie written by Visa Barbosa, Mariona (coord.) and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La tercera edad de oro de la ficción televisiva ha favorecido la proliferación de series de gran despliegue técnico y a la vez de narrativas que describen la intimidad y la rutina cotidiana de los protagonistas. Son obras que nos presentan personajes alejados de la heroicidad, representados a menudo dentro del espacio doméstico, que ha pasado a ser un lugar clave para la descripción y evolución de los personajes. Partiendo de la premisa que la ficción televisiva desarrolla una clara función de referencia y legitimación social, creando estereotipos y modelos en los que los espectadores se identifican, este libro analiza veinte de las series contemporáneas más populares, reflexionando sobre el rol paternal y maternal de sus protagonistas. En algunas series se encuentran ejemplos que se alejan de la descripción de la familia patriarcal convencional. Destacamos así la pluralidad de discursos que se están ofreciendo, aunque también observamos que muchas de ellas, a pesar de un envoltorio transgresor, siguen reproduciendo roles que alimentan los valores familiares tradicionales.

Download or read book Life Truth in its Various Perspectives written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is truth? This fascinating spectrum of studies into the various rationalities of our human dealings with life - psychological, aesthetic, economic, spiritual - reveals their joints and calls for a new approach to truth. Putting both classical and contemporary conceptions aside, we find the primogenital ground of truth in the networks of correspondences, adequations, relevancies, and rationales at work in life's becoming. Does this plurivocal differentiation mean that the status of truth is relative? On the contrary, submits Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka, given the universal significance of the crucial instrument of the logos of life, "truth is the vortex of life's ontopoietic unfolding".

This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 781 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 2 of A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula brings to an end this collective work that aims at surveying the network of interliterary relations in the Iberian Peninsula. No attempt at such a comparative history of literatures in the Iberian Peninsula has been made until now. In this volume, the focus is placed on images (Section 1), genres (Section 2), forms of mediation (Section 3), and cultural studies and literary repertoires (Section 4). To these four sections an epilogue is added, in which specialists in literatures in the Iberian Peninsula, as well as in the (sub)disciplines of comparative history and comparative literary history, search for links between Volumes 1 and 2 from the point of view of general contributions to the field of Iberian comparative studies, and assess the entire project that now reaches completion with contributions from almost one hundred scholars.

Download or read book Cuando los que escuchan hablan written by María Esther Gilio and published by Libros del Zorzal. This book was released on 2020-09-25 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A los 14 años, con la lectura de Análisis profano de Freud, se produce un quiebre en la vida de María Esther Gilio: “Después de haber pasado mi primera infancia diciendo ‘quiero ser médica de locos’, después de ver un film de Claudette Colbert en que ésta, con todo su encanto francés, convertía a locos furiosos en santos de estampita, quise ser psicoanalista”. Este es el testimonio de alguien que sospecha que hablar de uno mismo en el pasado es como hablar de otra persona, y que el presente surge permanentemente como un espejo que no siempre queremos enfrentar de manera directa (“Llegamos a hoy. Y yo no quiero escribir sobre mí misma”). Como si la conversación con quienes compartimos preciados intereses mostrara nuestra identidad más genuina, la autora –abogada, escritora, biógrafa y periodista– nos habla de experiencias de vida a través de una serie de entrevistas. Aparecen aquí algunos de los más importantes y prestigiosos psicoanalistas contemporáneos: Jean Laplanche, Jacques Alain Miller, Emilio Rodrigué, Elisabeth Roudinesco, Benzión Winograd, Silvia Bleichmar, Janine Altounian, Lito Benvenutti, Mordechai Benyakar, César Botella, Françoise Davoine, Jean-Max Gaudilliere, Daniel Gil, Max Hernández, Philippe Jeammet, François Marty, Paul Roazen y Teresa Yuan. De manera paulatina, el lector encontrará en estas páginas una impresión de coherencia ética y profesional en el tratamiento de temas que le dan sentido a aquel primer deseo, y que revelan que “nuestras decisiones siempre están estrechamente unidas a lo que imaginamos”.
Download or read book La era secular written by Charles Taylor and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-04-15 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En los últimos siglos Occidente ha ensanchado el abanico de las opciones de la creencia, ya sean religiosas, ateas u otras difíciles de clasificar. Un proceso paulatino de declive de la fe y retirada de la religión de la vida pública. Este retroceso supone un cambio impactante si pensamos en el papel que hasta hace poco jugaban las iglesias cristianas en el mundo Occidental. ¿Por qué ha sucedido todo esto? ¿Cuáles son los rasgos del nuevo paisaje espiritual? La era secular es el ensayo escrito más ambicioso y sobresaliente sobre el complejo proceso de secularización en Occidente que aún sigue en marcha. El filósofo Charles Taylor desgrana, en este segundo volumen, el cambio de las condiciones de la fe que desde la Ilustración socavaron las viejas formas y sentaron las bases de una nueva alternativa humanista. Sin embargo, este debilitamiento de las representaciones anteriores no ha sido incompatible con la persistencia de cierto anhelo de religiosidad, lo cual se traduce en nuestros días, en el florecimiento de múltiples alternativas —a veces contradictorias— y en un novedoso pluralismo en cuestión de espiritualidad.
Download or read book Feminism and the Power of Love written by Adriana García-Andrade and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The power of love has become a renewed matter of feminist and non-feminist attention in the 21st century’s theory debates. What is this power? Is it a form of domination? Or is it a liberating force in our contemporary societies? Within Feminism and the Power of Love lies the central argument that, although love is a crucial site of gendered power asymmetries, it is also a vital source of human empowerment that we cannot live without. Instead of emphasizing "either-or", this enlightening title puts the dualities and contradictions of love center stage. Indeed, by offering various theoretical perspectives on what makes love such a central value and motivator for people, this title will increase one’s understanding as to why love can keep people in its grip - even when practiced in ways that deplete and oppress. In light of such analyses, the contributions within Feminism and the Power of Love present new perspectives on the conditions and characteristics of non-oppressive, mutually enhancing ways of loving. Bridging the gap between Feminist Affect Studies and Feminist Love Studies, this book will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students, including postdoctoral researchers, interested in fields such as women’s and gender studies, sociology, political science, philosophy, cultural studies and sexuality studies.

La pornografía llega a la vida de niños y adolescentes a edades cada vez más tempranas, a veces incluso cuando ni siquiera contemplaban su existencia o se han planteado la decisión de verla. Con solo un clic, nuestros hijos podrían ser testigos de los deseos, las fantasías y las perversiones de un mundo adulto y diverso. La pornografía es un gran negocio que hoy afecta de muchas formas la visión que los jóvenes tienen sobre la intimidad, las relaciones de pareja, la sexualidad, el placer, e incluso, lo que se espera de un hombre o de una mujer. ¿Cómo podemos acercarnos a nuestros hijos para hablar de este tema? ¿Cómo prepararlos para saber qué hacer en caso de toparse con ella? ¿Cómo ayudarles a cuestionar los discursos que ésta brinda? Este libro propone una oportunidad para generar un diálogo abierto con niños y jóvenes que nos permita acompañarlos y evitar que la pornografía empañe su vivencia de una sexualidad plena, placentera y libre de violencia en el futuro.
