Le origini dell’emigrazione dalle Isole Eolie
2015
lo studio mostra come la prima emigrazione dalle isole Eolie non è interpretabile con il modello espulsivo ma obbedisce alle regole dell'attrazione veicolata dai marinai eoliani assunti dalle grandi compagnie di navigazione a vela sin dalla prima metà dell'ottocento.
The Enlightenment in Spain: Classic and New Historiographical Perspectives
2020
Este capítulo ofrece una revisión historiográfica de la Ilustración española, situada tanto en el contexto de los estudios específicos como de las controversias más amplias suscitadas en el ámbito internacional: cuestiones de cronología, vínculos entre la Ilustración y la religión (más específicamente el catolicismo), circulación de ideas, aproximaciones intelectuales o más bien socioculturales, contraste y relación entre "centros" y "periferias", o entre Ilustraciones "radicales" y convencionales". El texto pone de relieve las nuevas perspectivas analíticas, muy especialmente las abiertas por los estudios sobre mujeres y género, sobre culturas "populares" y sobre dimensiones atlánticas e i…
Propiedades psicométricas del CEVEAPEU: Validación en población peruana
2016
Researchers’ interest in the learning process at university context, and in its evaluation, has increased in recent years. Great deals of papers have studied this process and the role that learning strategies play in it and how to measure them in an objective and reliable way. Following this trend, the aim of this study is to validate the Cuestionario de Evaluación de las Estrategias de Aprendizaje de los Estudiantes Universitarios (CEVEAPEU) in a sample of 238 Peruvian university students. Results examined factorial validity, reliability and validity evidence of the questionnaire. In order to test factorial validity of the affective, support and control strategies and information process s…

Los maestros españoles de los «niños de Morelia» nuevas aportaciones
2003
On the performance of the Spanish teachers that accompanied the so called «Children of Morelia» expedition, the specialists that have dealt with the topic so far have made a severe negative judgment. In this work we bring to light, for the first time and through unpublished documentation, the repeated initiatives that these teachers took to try to complete their guardian mission, which could not be carried out completely due to the position of the Mexican authorities.<br><br>Sobre la actuación de los maestros españoles que acompañaron a la expedición de los «niños de Morelia», se ha formado un severo juicio negativo por parte de los especialistas que han tratado el tema. En este…
Documenting Italo-Romance minority languages in the Americas. Problems and tentative solutions
2021
This article describes the process of preparation and implementation of a data collection enterprise targeting Italo-Romance emigrant languages in North and South America. This data collection is part of the ERC Microcontact project, which aims to understand language change in contact by examining the language of Italian communities in the Americas.
Hacer películas chilenas desde Francia: Marcela Said y Jairo Boisier
2019
Submitting projects to international funds and the subsequent festival tour are obligatory steps for most films that, outside purely commercial circuits, seek distribution and cultural legitimacy beyond their national borders. In this globalized context, European support funds are particularly important. Following the path opened by pioneering scholars (De Valck, Elsaesser, Falicov, Shaw), this article aims to study the transnational networks in which Latin American cinema is currently involved. We address this issue by focussing on the specific case of two Chilean directors based in France: Marcela Said and Jairo Boisier. By doing so, we intend to show how European and particularly French …
Food-Based Dietary Guidelines around the World: A Comparative Analysis to Update AESAN Scientific Committee Dietary Recommendations
2021
Food-Based Dietary Guidelines (FBDG) include dietary recommendations based on food groups according to the general and accepted nutrition principles and current scientific evidence. Adoption of FBDG contributes to the prevention of malnutrition in all its forms, promotes human health, and reduces environmental impact. The present review aims to perform an international comparative analysis of the FBDG adopted in different countries from three different continents (America, Asia, and Europe), with particular reference to the Spanish Food Safety and Nutrition Agency (AESAN, Agencia Española de Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutrición) Scientific Committee dietary recommendations. A total of twelve c…
Palaeomagnetism of the central Cuban Cretaceous Arc sequences and geodynamic implications
2009
Abstract A detailed palaeomagnetic study of Cretaceous age volcanic and sedimentary arc rocks from central Cuba has been carried out. Samples from 32 sites (12 localities) were subjected to detailed demagnetisation experiments. Nineteen sites from the Los Paso, Matagua, Provincial and Cabaiguan Formations yielded high unblocking temperature, dual polarity directions of magnetisation which pass the fold tests with confidence levels of 95% or more and are considered to be primary in origin. The palaeomagnetic inclinations are equivalent to palaeolatitudes of 9°N for the Aptian, 18°N for the Albian. A synfolding remanence identified in 5 sites from the younger Hilario Formation indicates a lat…
Subduction of the Nazca Ridge and the Inca Plateau: Insights into the formation of ore deposits in Peru
2005
A large number of ore deposits that formed in the Peruvian Andes during the Miocene (15-5 Ma) are related to the subduction of the Nazea plate beneath the South American plate. Here we show that the spatial and temporal distribution of these deposits correspond with the arrival of relatively buoyant topographic anomalies, namely the Nazca Ridge in central Peru and the now-consumed Inca Plateau in northern Peru, at the subduction zone. Plate reconstruction shows a rapid metallogenic response to the arrival of the topographic anomalies at the subduction trench. This is indicated by clusters of ore deposits situated within the proximity of the laterally migrating zones of ridge subduction. It …
