La raza como problema filosófico en los escritos de Nietzsche
2020
The article aims to elucidate the role played by “race” in Nietzsche's writings. Nietzsche’s concept of “race” is analyzed and interpreted together with his lexicon of the transformation of the human being and his critique of culture. The concept of “race” is studied together with other adjacent concepts and similar ideas such as the treatment of the Jewish question, his criticism of nationalism, the figure of good Europeans, the metaphor of the blond beast, the human types and the thought of breeding. It is concluded that “race” has an unquestionable physiological and evolutionary character, but through the process of incorporation (Einverleibung), culture and morals intervene in a fundame…
L'aura de la memòria. La imatge de Jaume I en la València baixmedieval (ca. 1338 - ca. 1538)
2022
La tesis doctoral indaga en el período inicial de gestación del recuerdo de Jaime I en la ciudad de Valencia, entre el primer y el tercer centenario de la fiesta de la conquista, en el marco de la cultura visual; es decir, del conjunto de manifestaciones figurativas y arquitectónicas, así como de actos performativos y objetos comunes que no se adaptan a la idea tradicional del arte. Establece un diálogo con los argumentos que ya han esgrimido historiadores y filólogos para definir cuál era el papel de las imágenes en la historia de la memoria del rey. Publica nueva documentación de archivo, relee las noticias ya exhumadas y, en definitiva, presenta la revisión de un tema –reconsidera la ima…
Preparation and characterisation of optical and optoelectronic devices based in two-dimensional semiconductors
2020
In the Materials Science field, two-dimensional materials have gained the scientific community attention in recent years. The change and the appearance of novel properties when their thickness is reduced to nanometric scale has special interest for its fundamental properties study for, from this base, the design and its implementation in devices. The wide variety of materials with the possibility of being exfoliated at the two-dimensional level opens the field to different applications, from optoelectronic devices, detection and sensing, energy storage, catalysis, medical applications and quantum information technologies, among others. This thesis gathers results in both directions: a funda…
La rendicontazione delle performance nelle imprese sociali: l'esperienza italiana
2011
The law namber 755/06 on Social Entreprises made it obligatory to produce a Social report. In the past, this hat been voluntary but is now seen as an an important development in the reporting for this type of enterprise . the aim of this contribution is to describe the involvement of the stakeholder in the enterprise according with criteria stated by the Law. In particular is analysed the new concept of multistakeholders' governance stated by the above Law Decree and giving evidence of the state or the art in the Social Entreprises field.
Herbicidal activity of derivatives of 9-aminofluoren-9-ylphosphonic acid
1991
A series of derivatives of 9‐aminofluoren‐9‐ylphosphonic acid (phosphonic analogues of morphactins) were synthesized and screened for herbicidal activity against Lepidium sativum, Cucumis sativus and Lycopersicon esculentum. Ethyl 9‐(N‐alkylamino)fluoren‐9‐yl(phenyl)phosphinates appeared to be equipotent with glyphosate and thus may be recognized as new lead compounds for further structural modifications.
ASSESSING MERCURY POLLUTION USING BLACK STORK EGGSHELLS
2021
Female birds whose bodies contain environmental contaminants produce eggs with shells that are likewise contaminated, making bird eggshells appropriate indicators for monitoring environmental toxins. Common contaminants include organic mercury compounds, especially methylmercury, which are known to bioaccumulate and biomagnify in the food chain. Black storks (Ciconia nigra) predominantly consume fish and are thus at risk for high mercury intake. In this study, we used eggshells of black storks as a proxy to reconstruct the concentration levels and distribution of mercury, a well-known toxic element, in various parts of Latvia. Preliminary analyses have shown that deposition levels of mercur…
Viral diseases causing the greatest economic losses to the tomato crop. II. The Tomato yellow leaf curl virus — a review
1996
Abstract Tomato yellow leaf curl geminivirus (TYLCV), transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) is one of the most devastating diseases of cultivated tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). TYLCV causes economic losses up to 100% in tomato crop in many tropical and subtropical regions, and is spreading towards new areas. The increasing economic importance of TYLCV has resulted in the need for accurate detection and identification procedures, stimulating intensive research efforts focused on virus biology, diversity, and epidemiology to develop successful control strategies. Breeding for resistance appears to be the best approach to control this disease, but to date only partial…
El anillo ecuestre áureo de Molata de Casa Vieja, Almaciles (Puebla de Don Fadrique, Granada)
2019
We here document an Iberian gold ring, which we have recently been able to study. It was found at some time between the late 1960s and mid-1980s, near Molata de Casa Vieja, one of the most important oppida in Alta Andalucía. The engraved bezel is of a schematic style, and derives from the iconic Iberian rider, ubiquitous on the pre–Roman coinage. It adds a new representation to this already rich corpus. The image of the rider was frequently used by the Iberian elite between the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC. The ring is now par t of the collection of the Archaeological Museum of Murcia. Con este artículo se pretende estudiar y documentar un anillo ibérico de oro al que hemos tenido acceso hace p…
Yo logo(s): On the icono-plastic configuration of brand symbols
2015
Among the various areas with which the vast research field of branding is concerned, brand image is recognized as a territory most pertinently analyzed with semiotic tools, since it is populated by symbols that are amenable to interpretation, such as brand logos. According to Henderson and Cote (1998), logos are graphic designs that companies uses, with or without their name, to identify themselves or their products. Semiotics, and particularly structuralist semiotics (e.g., Floch 1990,1995; Landowski 1989; Fabbri 1998; Marrone 2001, 2007), has largely abandoned the scrutiny of symbols and signs as standalone objects of analysis, in favour of the conditions of meaning that underlie brand na…
