« Les ‘‘Européens’’, minorité protégée dans les colonies françaises »

2017

International audience; Les « Européens » formaient-ils une minorité dans les colonies ? Qui plus est, une minorité protégée ? Dans les textes régissant les colonies françaises, le terme « Européen » renvoyait aux Français d’origine métropolitaine et aux étrangers des pays européens naturalisés français. Si les « Européens » étaient numériquement moins nombreux que les natifs des colonies, ils entendaient s’imposer en tant que communauté référente. Minorité au sens numérique mais une minorité dominante. En effet, le droit colonial français, a minima, protégea les « Européens » ; a maxima, il assura leur domination, principe contraire à l’égalité républicaine et à la vision universaliste et …

'Another Art Altogether': Heart of Darkness come romanzo breve

2002

By referring to a number of studies on Joseph Conrad as well as to critical works on the novella as a modern narrative form (from Henry James to Leibowitz, Nemerov and Kundera), this article explores how a reading of Heart of Darkness as a short novel can add new nuances to a better appreciation of Conrad's masterpiece.

Maniobras ecológicas. Prácticas artísticas y culturales de re-existencia pensadas desde el Sur

2017

La presente investigación parte de la hipótesis de que el paradigma ontológico y epistemológico de la modernidad occidental que separa naturaleza y cultura, es un paradigma dicotómico que posee una “eficacia naturalizadora” (Lander, 2000). Es decir, que se auto-reproduce como algo natural, cuando en realidad legitima su permanencia mediante un sistema de representaciones hegemónicas y jerarquías establecidas. Un discurso basado en relaciones asimétricas de poder, funcional a la construcción del capitalismo como modelo civilizatorio dominante. Esta dicotomía asimétrica, que siempre denigra a uno de los términos de la oposición es, en efecto, el fundamento epistemológico de la modernidad colo…

DESARROLLO ECONÓMICO DE UN PUEBLO LACUSTRE: CAPULHUAC, ESTADO DE MÉXICO

2017

Resumen Capulhuac se localiza en la Cuenca del Alto Lerma en el Estado de Mexico, en sus origenes prehispanicos mantuvo un desarrollo sociocultural y economico lacustre. Durante la epoca colonial la poblacion se dedico a la produccion y venta de pulque, a la cria de ganado menor, al comercio de estos productos y de los obtenidos de la cienaga. En la decada de 1940 comenzo la construccion del acueducto que dirige las aguas del Alto Lerma hacia el Distrito Federal, lo que disminuyo la cantidad de recursos lacustres para el sustento y el comercio, esto incremento la explotacion del maguey y la cria de ganado, para la elaboracion de pulque y la manufactura de prendas de lana, respectivamente. L…

Translationsstrategien in Texten der Evangelisierung und der indigenen Rechtsprechung in Neu-Spanien

2021

ZusammenfassungThis paper sets out to reconstruct concepts of translation between Spanish and indigenous languages that were prevalent in religious as well as notarial contexts in colonial Mexico (more specifically in a district within the state of Oaxaca) between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. To this end, we analyse Christian doctrinal texts translated from Spanish into the Zapotec language by Dominican friars in order to propagate the Christian faith, as well as notarial texts in the form of testaments written in Zapotec by the indigenous population and translated into Spanish in order to be submitted as evidence in court. We pay particular attention to the use and translation o…

The Diversity of the Philippine Population

2017

A country of many islands, the Philippines is also a country of many languages. The Tagalog language of Manila has been chosen as the base of the national Pilipino language, even if Cebuano counts as many speakers. The languages of the Philippines have common grammatical structures, but wide differences in vocabulary. Contrary to Latin America where Spanish and Portuguese became the dominant languages, Spanish did not dominate the local languages, since colonial priests preferred to learn local languages rather than teaching Spanish to their flocks. English, as the second colonial language, is spoken much more, since the Americans educated Filipinos in English as part of their “benevolent a…

Comparative population genetic structures of the fruit flyUrophora carduiand its primary parasitoidEurytoma robusta

2003

The interaction between two species may depend on geographic scale and this in turn can affect co-evolution among them. The present study comparatively examines population genetic structures of the tephritid gall fly Urophora cardui and its primary ectoparasitoid Eurytoma robusta for inference of relative dispersal patterns and host parasitoid specificity. Genetic differentiation patterns indicated two levels of hierarchical structure in both species: locally similar distance-dependencies but globally differences. Locally, both species showed isolation by distance and a high correlation between host anti parasitoid F ST for the same population-pairs was found. At the local level, E. robusta…

Genetic and morphological differentiation ofDikerogammarusinvaders and their invasion history in Central Europe

2002

SUMMARY 1. Biological invasions often involve close taxonomic relatives either as native/invader pairs or as invader/invader pairs. Precise identification and differentiation of species is therefore of paramount importance to reconstruct the invasion history. Genetic studies are indispensable in the case of morphologically conservative taxonomic groups. 2. We analysed the Pontocaspian freshwater amphipods Dikerogammarus that have successfully invaded the benthos of large Central European rivers. Taxonomic uncertainties were clarified by phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial 16S and COI genes. The three-way partitioning of allozyme genotypes in a syntopic population further corroborated the…
