2014

Resumo: No romance Rakushisha (2007), Adriana Lisboa representa varias dimensoes da experiencia da alteridade. Os dois protagonistas brasileiros que viajam ao Japao – Haruki em busca de suas raizes culturais, Celina em busca dela mesma – refletem a estadia da propria autora em Quioto, experiencia necessaria para poder escrever o livro, como afirma ela.

Musical inter-language in film: Trans-culturality and communicative integration

2012

En el cine, la música basa frecuentemente su efectividad significativa en cierta codificación empírica compartida con la audiencia. Esta participación no impone un significado único y necesario, sino que sólo media entre la construcción aparentemente objetiva del film y la subjetividad del espectador. Al actuar de manera simbólica, introduce un elemento metatextual que sólo adquiere sentido en el imaginario del receptor, quien adapta el mensaje a su propio paradigma y permite así su interpretación desde una amplia variedad de contextos socioculturales. Esta circunstancia justifica que el lenguaje musical cinematográfico sea aceptado, comprendido y utilizado en numerosos centros de producció…

Economicism and Nihilism in the Eclipse of Humanism

2014

This article is based on the conviction that the major problems nowadays are not technical, but ethical, and are incumbent on homo qua homo. The origin of these problems is the advancement of economicism as a supreme interpretation of human and social reality, which means the primacy of the “market” and considering human beings in terms of what they have rather than what they are. Economicism emerges in “modernity” and assumes that everything that does not have market value is either devaluated or rejected. In consequence, the human being has been devaluated and has turned into a simple object of the market. “Postmodernity” mixes economicism and techno-scientificism (chrematistics and instr…

Transgresión moral y enfermedad en los países nórdicos en la temprana Edad Moderna

2009

This article seeks to understand how people in the early modern age interpreted the nature of illness and the role that morality played in these interpretations. From this point of view illnesses were not only psycho-physical states or subjects for medical diagnosis but they were also subjects for narratives or stories through which people tried to understand what had caused their illness, and why it was happening to them. Illnesses were understood as strictly connected with the patient's character and were regarded as possible consequences of his personality. On the other hand, the interpretations also emphasised the ambivalence of a healer. Personal experiences and an understanding of one…

Limits in medical care and social relief during the Spanish Civil War in a rear-guard city: the inclusa of the provincial hospital of Valencia.

2016

Due to its geostrategic condition during the Spanish Civil War, Valencia became one of the Republican cities welcoming more refugees, including many children. In this scenario of demographic and health crisis, the town had to restructure the assistance network in order to accommodate thousands of displaced children, who often had their relatives in faraway places. The paper focuses in the progressive rehabilitation undertaken by the Inclusa of Valencia, which was the provincial foundling hospital. This included deep changes both in its operation and in the admission criteria, particularly following the transfer of the Inclusa of Madrid to Valencia. The resulting overcrowding encouraged the …
