Azorín y la “historia menuda” de España: una lectura de Los pueblos (1905)

2015

El propósito de este trabajo es proponer una lectura de Los pueblos (1905) desde el punto de vista del historiador; concretamente, desde la perspectiva de dos corrientes historiográficas —la microhistoria y la history from below— surgidas en Europa durante los años setenta con el objetivo fundamental de recuperar al individuo anónimo como sujeto histórico, prestando atención a las “clases subalternas” de la sociedad. Mediante el análisis de dicha obra, mi intención es demostrar que la concepción que tiene Azorín de la historia de España responde a una idea fundamental: la necesidad de conceder la atención que merecen a los pequeños hechos y sucesos de la vida cotidiana protagonizados por in…

Modernities in the Americas: from the avant-gardes to nowadays

2018

Revisiting today the question of modernity in literature, in the arts, in society and politics means using the plural. And choosing the plural means not restricting the scope to the multivocal, but often ambiguous, notion of modernism. Often enrolled to designate a cultural imagination of modernity, the term is under duress when it comes to accounting for divergent ways of apprehending the relationship to time, history and culture. “Modernity is not a movement like dada or like imagism. If li...

Modernidades en las Américas: de las vanguardias a la actualidad

2018

Replantear hoy en día la cuestión de la modernidad —literaria, artística, social o política— equivale a emplear la palabra en plural. Esta decisión supone no limitarse al término polisémico, y a menudo ambiguo, de modernismo. Este último, que con frecuencia se invoca para designar el imaginario cultural de la modernidad, apenas sirve para dar cuenta de las diferencias que se manifiestan en la manera de concebir la relación con el tiempo, la historia y la cultura. «La modernidad no es un movim...

As modernidades nas Américas: desde as vanguardas até hoje

2018

Atualmente, repensar a questao da modernidade – literaria, artistica, social ou politica – significa empregar a palavra no plural. Essa escolha implica em nao nos limitarmos ao termo plurivoco, e, muitas vezes ambiguo, de modernismo. Esse ultimo, frequentemente convocado para designar o imaginario cultural da modernidade, tem dificuldade em dar conta das diferencas que se manifestam na forma de pensar a relacao com o tempo, a historia e a cultura. “A modernidade nao e um movimento, como o Dad...

Les ultimes feux de la résistance païenne dans l'antiquité tardive

2010

Os trabalhos recentes do autor convidam a um exame renovado do significado ideológico e religioso de certas fontes historiográficas importantes do final do século IV, entre as quais a História Augusta. De fato, parece que esta obra se inscreve, com outras, no contexto do último combate conduzido contra o cristianismo triunfante pelos derradeiros defensores da antiga religião da qual Nicômaco Flaviano sênior surge como o principal líder. De 384, data da morte de Pretextato, a 395. data da morte de Teodósio, os pagão puderam preservar os cultos antigos, chegando inclusive  a armar-se em boa medida por este motivo, na batalha de Frígido. Entre 395 e 408, isto é, até o desaparecimento de Estili…

Anarquia em Sicília – uma revolta de escravos na Siracusa Antiga 491/490 A.C.

2017

No ano 491 ou 490 a.C. o <em>demos</em> de Siracusa, uma das principais cidades gregas na parte oriental da ilha de Sicília, se alia aos <em>kyllyrioi,</em> uma população agrária escravizada, expulsando a aristocracia escravocrata e latifundiária dos <em>gamoroi</em> da cidade. Segue-se o que Aristóteles chama de um estado de <em>anarquia</em>, que é somente terminado com a ascensão da tirania de Gelão, que cria uma nova ordem política em Siracusa. Este artigo pretende examinar a relevância da análise de classes para o entendimento destes eventos, ponderando assim também a relevância da categoria para a história da antiguidade em geral. Adicio…

Hazardous air pollutants and primary liver cancer in Texas.

2016

The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common primary liver cancer, is increasing in the US and tripled during the past two decades. The reasons for such phenomenon remain poorly understood. Texas is among continental states with the highest incidence of liver cancer with an annual increment of 5.7%. Established risk factors for HCC include Hepatitis B and C (HBV, HCV) viral infection, alcohol, tobacco and suspected risk factors include obesity and diabetes. While distribution of these risk factors in the state of Texas is similar to the national data and homogeneous, the incidence of HCC in this state is exceptionally higher than the national average and appears to be di…

Carbon emissions by Ssouth american companies: driving factors for reporting decisions and emissions reduction

2018

In the last decade, companies have started to disclose information on carbon emissions. To our knowledge, this is the first paper to look into this phenomenon in South America, which is a very important geographical area regarding climate change because of the local nature and developing economies. This paper explores the relationships between some corporate variables and two important decisions: (i) whether to report carbon emissions, and (ii) the impact on the evolution of carbon emissions. Logit and linear panel data models are used to determine the driving factors for decisions (i) and (ii). Our results show that regarding the carbon reporting decision, a company&rsquo

Iberoamérica en la Enseñanza Española de la Historia.

2013

Ibero-America no Ensino Espanhol de Historia A presenca dos paises ibero-americanos e uma questao que tem estado permanentemente assegurada nos livros de texto da educacao secundaria espanhola desde a implantacao do sistema educativo liberal, por volta do seculo XIX, ate a atualidade. Esta atencao tem se dado tradicionalmente tanto nos manuais dedicados a historia da Espanha como nos que se ocupam da chamada historia universal, assim definida apesar de seu marcado carater eurocentrico. Esta presenca continuada de paises ibero-americanos tem conhecido, no entanto, distintos graus de intensidade segundo as epocas, no sentido de haver sido dedicada maior ou menor extensao nas paginas dos manua…

Solving a Bloody Mess: B-Vitamin Independent Metabolic Convergence among Gammaproteobacterial Obligate Endosymbionts from Blood-Feeding Arthropods an…

2015

Endosymbiosis is a common phenomenon in nature, especially between bacteria and insects, whose typically unbalanced diets are usually complemented by their obligate endosymbionts. While much interest and focus has been directed toward phloem-feeders like aphids and mealybugs, blood-feeders such as the Lone star tick (Amblyomma americanum), Glossina flies, and the human body louse (Pediculus humanus corporis) depend on obligate endosymbionts which complement their B-vitamin-deficient diets, and thus are required for growth and survival. Glossiphoniid leeches have also been found to harbor distinct endosymbionts housed in specialized organs. Here, we present the genome of the bacterial endosy…
