Comunicació 2.0 i gènere
2009
Internet ha capgirat les formes de comunicació i d’intercanvi d’informació entre les persones: les receptores en el procés comunicatiu són ara també emissores. La conjunció d’aquesta particularitat amb l’aparició i ús d’algunes eines de comunicació (fàcils d’usar i bàsicament gratuïtes) permet parlar d’un fenomen social de gran abast: la comunicació 2.0. Aquest article analitza algunes de les característiques d’aquesta classe d’interacció i centra l’interés de forma particular en certes iniciatives que tenen com a epicentre les qüestions de gènere. La comunicació 2.0 permet la participació activa i directa en el procés, obert i col·laboratiu, de construcció de la identitat pròpia. Així mate…

Lower secondary school pupils’ written descriptions of their experiences with bullying and the tendency to seek help
2021
The purpose of this study was to examine lower secondary school students’ (n = 223) descriptions of bullying and their experiences with the phenomenon. Students at three schools in Norway completed a survey containing open-ended questions. We employed a mixed-methods analytical approach in which responses were coded thematically and then quantified. Findings indicate that students viewed bullying in a manner consistent with prevalent definitions in the literature. However, they were often unsure whether social conflicts they had experienced would be considered bullying. School was clearly featured as the primary arena for bullying, although bullying in free-time activities and on social med…
Functional capacity and risk of frailty syndrome in 85-year-old and older women living in nursing homes in Poland
2021
Maintaining sufficient physical fitness to prevent any limitations in performing activities of daily living and to be functionally independent is of great importance for both longevity and quality of life in older adults. Aim of the study was to evaluate functional physical fitness of women aged 85 years and older, residents of nursing homes, in the Polish population and to assess the risk of frailty syndrome. The study involved 17 women aged 85 years or older, residents of nursing homes in the Lower Silesian voivodeship. The Senior Fitness Test was used to assess functional fitness.

La conquista è un sostantivo femminile. Donne e avventura coloniale dell'Italia liberale del Corno d'Africa
2016
Tra gli aspetti maggiormente e volutamente rimossi della nostra avventura coloniale, c’è quello che riguarda il coinvolgimento e il ruolo delle donne nell’avventura coloniale nonché l’atteggiamento adottato dagli Italiani (di entrambi i sessi) nei confronti delle donne colonizzate. Se le donne italiane dapprima escluse furono, in un secondo momento, invitate ad esportare oltremare i valori della famiglia, propaganda di Stato, fotografia, canzoni, pubblicità, realizzazioni filmiche, letteratura e pretesi discorsi scientifici hanno veicolato, dal canto loro, dapprima una retorica di genere che ha mercificato la donna indigena come preda sessuale, e, in un secondo momento, l’ha demonizzata rov…
La dirección orquestal y su dimensión social: hacia la inclusión de la mujer
2022
Por influencia de las teorías freudianas suele decirse que, en el contexto de una orquesta, la batuta representa la virilidad, al ser un elemento usado única y exclusivamente por quien ostenta el liderazgo de aquella. El director, batuta en mano, se transforma en un mediador entre el conjunto musical, la obra y el público. Sin embargo, esta analogía únicamente funciona a nivel de recepción musical y social cuando estamos ante un líder varón. El presente artículo analiza con perspectiva de género el rol del director de orquesta partiendo de su origen, como figura que surge en el siglo XIX y evoluciona hasta la actualidad. En concreto se exponen los resultados de una investigación cuyo objeti…
Women in contemporary English drama translation: enhancement and downplay mechanisms to portray Golden Age damas
2011
In the last two decades British and American drama translators have shown a growing interest in the Spanish classics, resulting in English versions exclusively intended for the stage. Within this particular context, this paper is intended to provide a general view on how a motif present in the source texts, i.e. the role of women, is transferred into the target plays. A close analysis of the translated works reveals how women’s acts can be enhanced or downplayed in order to accommodate them to the recipient culture. Hence, political correctness, reaction to male domination, moral squeamishness and honour emerge as important elements to be taken into account. Conclusions will ultimately prov…
Reina María Rodríguez: A Poetic of the Limits to Cuba
2013
in this article we intend to approach some of the major controversies that have affected the poetry written in Cuba in recent decades: the reflection on the relationship of poetic language with reality; the writing of the limits, the remains —that what ideology hides—; the crossing of different genres and artistic languages —poetry, fiction, image—, etc. To do this, we analyze two books published by the Cuban poet Reina Maria Rodríguez: Travelling (1995) and Variedades de Galiano (2008). And their relationship to the American “Language Poets”.
