Download or read book Medicina ideolog a e historia en Espa a siglos XVI XXI written by Ricardo Campos Marín and published by Editorial CSIC - CSIC Press. This book was released on 2007-05-30 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En el terreno que nos ocupa, el de la medicina, parece evidente que los aspectos ideológicos se han ido disolviendo en una creciente tecnificación de la práctica de la misma, donde la relación entre el médico y el paciente está mediatizada por un entramado científico-técnico abrumador. A su vez, las campañas sanitarias centradas en los conceptos de riesgo y en los estilos de vida saludables, se han vaciado aparentemente —pero sólo aparentemente— de cualquier atisbo ideológico, utilizando la estadística como instrumento objetivo que avala científicamente las actuaciones propuestas. A esto hay que añadir la internalización, por parte de los ciudadanos, de la salud como un valor que estructura nuestras vidas. Precisamente esa asunción de la salud como un valor aceptado por la población contribuye de manera importante a sustraer a la medicina de sus implicaciones ideológicas. El conjunto de trabajos que forman este volumen indaga en las relaciones entre medicina, ideología e historia, mostrando cómo se han ido configurando en el tiempo los conceptos de salud y enfermedad, y cómo ambos no han sido nunca elementos neutrales. También se explora el papel de la medicina en la construcción de identidades y en la catalogación de los individuos, cuestiones íntimamente ligadas a la ideología. Por último, los diferentes proyectos y concepciones de la medicina y salud están presentes en varios ensayos de este volumen. El origen del mismo está en el XIII Congreso de la Sociedad Española de Historia de la Medicina celebrado en Madrid entre los días 15 y 17 de septiembre de 2005 en la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid y en el Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas bajo el lema “La condición histórica de la medicina”. El libro, pues, es representativo del amplio panorama por el que se mueve la historiografía de la medicina en nuestro país en este comienzo de siglo.

Download or read book Medicina e historia natural written by José María López Piñero and published by Publicacions de la Universitat de València. This book was released on 2007 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'activitat científica en la societat espanyola dels segles XVI i XVII és un dels temes sobre els quals més treballen des de 1960 els historiadors valencians de la medicina i de la ciència. Per a realitzar aquesta tasca han estudiat sempre detingudament les publicacions estrangeres que proporcionen dades, acostaments i anàlisis relatives a la qüestió, ignorades pels seguidors de la lamentable «polèmica de la ciència espanyola», tant apologistes com negativistes. Les seues investigacions, que s'ajusten a la denominada «història integral», reconstrueixen l'activitat científica en condicions socioeconòmiques i polítiques determinades des de quatre aspectes fonamentals: organització i institucions, producció i consum de la informació científica, posició social dels científics i contingut dels sabers.

Download or read book Medicine Power and the Authoritarian Regime in Hispanic Literature written by Oscar A. Pérez and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a substantial examination of how contemporary authors deal with the complex legacies of authoritarian regimes in various Spanish-speaking countries. It does so by focusing on works that explore an under-studied aspect: the reliance of authoritarian power on medical notions for political purposes. From the Porfirian regime in Mexico to Castro’s Cuba, this book describes how such regimes have sought to seize medical knowledge to support propagandistic ideas and marginalize their opponents in ways that transcend specific pathologies, political ideologies, and geographical and temporal boundaries. Medicine, Power, and the Authoritarian Regime in Hispanic Literature brings together the work of literary scholars, cultural critics, and historians of medicine, arguing that contemporary authors have actively challenged authoritarian narratives of medicine and disease. In doing so, they continue to re-examine the place of these regimes in the collective memory of Latin America and Spain.
Download or read book Science Policies and Twentieth Century Dictatorships written by Amparo Gómez and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making a fresh contribution to the political history of science, this book explores the connections between the science policies of three countries that each experienced considerable political upheaval in the twentieth century: Spain, Italy and Argentina. By focussing on these three countries, the contributors are able to present case studies that highlight the characteristics and specificities of the democratic and dictatorial political processes involved in the production of science and technology. The focus on dictatorship presents the opportunity to expand our knowledge -beyond the more extensive literature about science in Nazi Germany and Stalinist USSR -about the level of political involvement of scientists in non-democratic contexts and to what extent they act as politicians in different contexts. Key topics covered include the new forms of organization and institutionalization of science in the twentieth century; the involvement of scientific communities in the governance of science and its institutions; the role of ideology in scientific development; the scientific practices adopted by scientific communities in different contexts; and the characteristics of science and technology produced in these contexts.
Download or read book The Contestation of Patriarchy in Luis Mart n Santos Work written by Miquel Bota and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes that Spanish author Luis Martín-Santos’ work focuses on the effects of patriarchy and hegemonic masculinity on men, to actively contribute to freeing both men and women from the yoke of patriarchy. It aims for a new resonance of Luis Martín-Santos. It analyzes the influence of Heidegger, Freud and Sartre in Martín-Santos’ psychiatric essays and his fictional works: the novel Tiempo de silencio (Time of Silence), the collection of short stories Apólogos, and the posthumous fragment Tiempo de destrucción (Time of Destruction). It demonstrates that alongside the political critique of Franco’s dictatorship, Martín-Santos’ creative writings are an attempt to destroy the prevalent masculine myths of Western patriarchy, and a proposal to create new myths for the future.

Download or read book Women Mysticism and Hysteria in Fin de Si cle Spain written by Jennifer Smith and published by Vanderbilt University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women, Mysticism, and Hysteria in Fin-de-Siècle Spain argues that the reinterpretation of female mysticism as hysteria and nymphomania in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Spain was part of a larger project to suppress the growing female emancipation movement by sexualizing the female subject. This archival-historical work highlights the phenomenon in medical, social, and literary texts of the time, illustrating that despite many liberals' hostility toward the Church, secular doctors and intellectuals employed strikingly similar paradigms to those through which the early modern Spanish Church castigated female mysticism as demonic possession. Author Jennifer Smith also directs modern historians to the writings of Emilia Pardo Bazán (1851-1921) as a thinker whose work points out mysticism's subversive potential in terms of the patriarchal order. Pardo Bazán, unlike her male counterparts, rejected the hysteria diagnosis and promoted mysticism as a path for women's personal development and self-realization.

Download or read book Routledge Handbook on the Sciences in Islamicate Societies written by Sonja Brentjes and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-01-24 with total page 876 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook on the Sciences in Islamicate Societies provides a comprehensive survey on science in the Islamic world from the 8th to the 19th century. Across six sections, a group of subject experts discuss and analyze scientific practices across a wide range of Islamicate societies. The authors take into consideration several contexts in which science was practiced, ranging from intellectual traditions and persuasions to institutions, such as courts, schools, hospitals, and observatories, to the materiality of scientific practices, including the arts and craftsmanship. Chapters also devote attention to scientific practices of minority communities in Muslim majority societies, and Muslim minority groups in societies outside the Islamicate world, thereby allowing readers to better understand the opportunities and constraints of scientific practices under varying local conditions. Through replacing Islam with Islamicate societies, the book opens up ways to explain similarities and differences between diverse societies ruled by Muslim dynasties. This handbook will be an invaluable resource for both established academics and students looking for an introduction to the field. It will appeal to those involved in the study of the history of science, the history of ideas, intellectual history, social or cultural history, Islamic studies, Middle East and African studies including history, and studies of Muslim communities in Europe and South and East Asia.
