Nightingale y la profesionalización de la enfermería en España
2021
espanolLa Historia de la Enfermeria Contemporanea en Espana esta siendo replanteada por multiples historiadores, que luchan contra las distorsiones que han desvirtuado la identidad enfermera en la historia. Teniendo como punto de partida la Escuela de Enfermeras de Santa Isabel de Hungria (1896), fundada por Rubio y Gali y tomando como referencia la Nightingale Training School (1860) fundada por Nightingale; el presente estudio muestra algunas de las evidencias sobre como la profesionalizacion de la Enfermeria en Espana siguio el mismo proceso que la enfermeria en otros paises. Analizando la informacion historica desde la perspectiva de genero, se muestra como el origen ideologico de la Enf…
The Bachelardian Tradition in the Philosophy of Science
2005
To present either Bachelard's epistemology or philosophy of science means, in some ways, to undertake the characterization of an original philosophical approach, one that perhaps begins with August...
A Hermeneutical Analysis of the InternalistApproachin the Philosophy of Sport
2015
Abstract In this paper, we make a hermeneutical analysis of internalism, the dominant tradition in the philosophy of sports. In order to accomplish this, we identify the prejudices that guide the internalist view of sports, namely the Platonic-Analytic prejudice introduced by Suits, one of the forefathers of internalism. Then, we critically analyze four consequences of following such a prejudice: a) its reductive nature, b) the production of a unrealistic view of sports, c) the vagueness of the idea of excellence; and d) the leap from the descriptive analysis of the sporting phenomenon to the setting of normative requirements for the practice of sports.
Algunas consideraciones sobre el arte en México de las décadas de 1990 y 2000
2016
Titulo : “Algunas consideraciones sobre el arte en Mexico de los 1990s y 2000s” Resumen : En los ultimos 25 anos, una forma distinta de hacer, exhibir y circular arte en Mexico se incorporo a la economia global con ayuda de fondos publicos y privados. El arte en Mexico de los 1990s y 2000s abarca la transicion de una reflexion sobre las promesas rotas de la modernidad desde un punto de vista periferico, y un desafio a la hueca imagen de mexicanidad y su institucionalizacion, a lo que se conoce como “arte contemporaneo”. La liberalizacion del mercado llego de la mano con la liberalizacion de la identidad, construcciones historicas y la hibridez-pastiche mestiza de lo postmoderno, dando lugar…
Theorizing religion and media in contemporary societies: An account of religious ‘publicization’
2011
This article argues that a combination of the rapid development and dissemination of media technologies, the liberalization of national media economies and the growth of transnational media spheres is transforming the relationship between religion, popular culture and politics in contemporary societies in ways not adequately accounted for in existing sociological theories of religion (secularization, neo-secularization and rational choice) and still largely neglected in sociological theories of media and culture. In particular, it points to a series of media enabled social processes (de-differentiation, diasporic intensification and re-enchantment) which mirror and counter processes identif…
“Never Some Easy Flashback”
2012
Abstract This paper provides a close reading of Paul Farley’s 160-line poem, “Thorns.” The poem is read in dialogue with William Wordsworth’s celebrated Romantic ballad “The Thorn.” Special attention is given to Farley’s treatment of memory and metaphor: It is shown how the first, exploratory part of the poem elaborates upon the interdependent nature of memory and metaphor, while the second part uses a more regulated form of imagery in its evocation of a generational memory linked to a particular place and time (the working-class Liverpool of the 1960s and 1970s). The tension between the two parts of the poem is reflected in the taut relationship between the poet and a confrontational alter…
The withstood voices in the inhabitants and the other “remains”: some notes about poetic of the bodies in the neoliberal city and the contemporary cr…
2019
Ante la atención que envuelve el arte en contexto, este artículo explora cómo las voces poéticas de los habitantes de la ciudad, foco de impacto de las arduas políticas de la crisis de 2008 en España, toman los espacios afectados y los convierten en reductos de resistencia. La definición de las distintas zonas y los espacios intersticiales opera una dialéctica fundamental en ese proceso que concentra su conmoción sobre los cuerpos. La “(re)construcción” de la ciudad experimenta cambios al albergar otras sonoridades, ya no de ruinas sino de “los restos”. Una pequeña selección de trabajos de Xelo Candel, Vicente Luis Mora, Marta Sanz, José María García Martín, Héctor Castilla y Felipe Alcaraz…
Le flair en images, ou comment est donnée à voir la communication olfactive
2016
How is the action of sniffing others, which has been depreciated by good manners and aesthetic standards, represented in pictures? In unveiling the theme of social sniffing, this essay aims to track variations around the odour of the body and olfactory communication in Western visual arts. This issue implies to examine the social roles of sui generis as well as artefactual human odours, and to assess figurative arts as a means to unveil historical trends in the forms and functions of the sense of smell in our culture. The corpus of figurative works consulted, far from exhaustive, stretches from medieval and classical allegories of smell to the visual language of perfume advertisements, thro…

La portada de la iglesia de las Escuelas Pías de Gandía. Su proceso constructivo y modulación arquitectónico-musical
2020
The facade of the church of the Pious Schools of Gandia has not attracted the attention of researchers. However, its conception has a great architectural culture and constitutes an essential work to understand its context, fundamentally, that of the theoretical treatises of the Renaissance. From this study it is wanted to value its architecture and that it is considered as an outstanding ingredient to know its period of construction in general and jesuit architecture in particular. For its understanding, its interpretation in the culture of contemporary architecture treaties and, especially, in the architectural-musical theory of Leon Battista Alberti will be necessary.. La portada de la ig…
