La primera aproximación de Hollywood a la Guerra Civil española: <em>The Last Train From Madrid (1937)</em> / First Approach of Hollywood…
2017
La Guerra Civil española fue un tema prohibido de forma tácita en el Hollywood regulado por la autocensura de la Oficina Hays y la PCA. Como consecuencia, las productoras cinematográficas norteamericanas sólo realizaron tres films sobre la contienda mientras se desarrolló (1936-1939). Este artículo analiza el contenido histórico y discurso ideológico de The Last Train From Madrid (James Hogan, 1937), la primera aproximación de Hollywood a la guerra de España. Se trata de un film menor, apenas estudiado, que sigue sin estar editado comercialmente. Sin embargo, posee gran relevancia en lo que atañe a la visión inaugural que se ofreció al público estadounidense sobre la beligerancia española e…
Civil Society, Corruption and Ethnic Relations
2015
In 2007 the Estonian government began to relocate a highly contentious Soviet era war memorial from the centre of Tallinn to a nearby military cemetery. The ‘Bronze Soldier’ was erected in 1947 to honour the memory of the fallen Soviet soldiers who had fought in the battles that liberated Tallinn from German forces during the Second World War. At that time it was known as the ‘Monument to the Liberators of Tallinn’. An eternal flame was added in 1964. Following independence, Estonian authorities rededicated it to all soldiers who had died during the war and dismantled the eternal flame in an attempt to depoliticise the memorial. For ethnic Estonians, however, it remained an acrimonious symb…
Relation between temperature and mortality in thirteen Spanish cities
2010
In this study we examined the shape of the association between temperature and mortality in 13 Spanish cities representing a wide range of climatic and socio-demographic conditions. The temperature value linked with minimum mortality (MMT) and the slopes before and after the turning point (MMT) were calculated. Most cities showed a V-shaped temperature-mortality relationship. MMTs were generally higher in cities with warmer climates. Cold and heat effects also depended on climate: effects were greater in hotter cities but lesser in cities with higher variability. The effect of heat was greater than the effect of cold. The effect of cold and MMT was, in general, greater for cardio-respirator…
Study of the effect of H2S, MeSH and DMS on the sensory profile of wine model solutions by Rate-All-That-Apply (RATA)
2016
The effect of hydrogen sulfide (HS), methanethiol (MeSH) and dimethyl sulfide (DMS) on the odor properties of three wine models-WM- (young white, young red and oaked red wines) was studied. Wine models were built by mixing a pool of common wine volatile and non-volatile compounds and further spiked with eight different combinations of the three sulfur compounds present at two levels (level 0: 0 μg L and level 1: 40 μg L of HS, 12 μg L of MeSH; 55 μg L of DMS). For each wine matrix eight WMs were produced and further submitted to sensory description by Rate-All-That-Apply (RATA) method. Hydrogen sulfide and methanethiol were clearly involved in the formation of reductive aromas and shared th…
Prevalence of smoking among dentists in Catalonia - Spain (2006). Literature review of smoking cessation practices in the dental office
2008
Objective: The objective of this study was to collect data on the prevalence of smokers among Catalonian dentists (by age and sex) and compare them with existing data on the general population, doctors, registered nurses and pharmacists. The overall prevalence of smokers in Catalonia (2006) was 34.5% of men and 24.3% of women. Data available on the prevalence of smoking among doctors (26.3% men and 22.1% women), pharmacists (19.8% men and 20.6% women) and registered nurses (34.1% men and 35.3% women) relates to the year 2002. Study design: In September 2006, Catalonian dentists (n=3,799) were asked about their habits in relation to tobacco in a self-administered questionnaire, on use and op…
Twenty-five years of analysis of the spanish populations sportive behaviour (1980-2005)
2006
The study of the Spanish population sport behaviour from the beginning of the democratic transition until de middle of the first decade of the XXI century, relies on a strong theoretical and empirical basis, six national social surveys that cover the 2005-1990 period. All the six sport social surveys have the same sponsorship, the Sport Council (CSD), the same Institute of Social Research (CIS), and the same author, the one that has prepared the present article. The longitudinal analysis of the main results allows to frame, both theoretically and empirically, the advance of the posmodernization processes in the Spanish sport social system as well as in the sport behaviour of the Spanish pop…
Veinticinco años de análisis del comportamiento deportivo de la población española (1980-2005)
2006
El estudio de los hábitos deportivos de la población española desde los inicios de la transición democrática hasta mediados de la primera década del siglo XXI, cuenta con una rigurosa base empírica de resultados, ya que en el periodo 1980-2005 se han llevado a cabo con una periodicidad quinquenal seis encuestas probabilísticas de alcance nacional con una continuidad tanto en su patrocinio, el Consejo Superior de Deportes, como en el instituto de investigación que ha realizado las encuestas, el Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas, y en la dirección de la investigación y análisis y publicación de los resultados. En este trabajo se presenta un análisis resumido y diacrónico de los resultado…
PROBLEMAS QUE CAUSAN INFERENCIAS MORFOSINTACTICAS ENTRE ITALIANO Y ESPANOL
2007
This paper’s purpose is to describe and analyze an error corpus due to interference between Italian and Spanish, produced by 20 Erasmus’s students in Palermo. Those students have studied Italian in their country, but they all have a basic language acquisition. Firstly, because of the affinity between the two languages, the acquisition of a basic competence could seem easily; subsequently it could be difficult to pass to an intermediate level, because of a phonetic, morphological and syntactical adaptation process. This paper aims to suggest an educational intervention trough the construction of an error’s file in which every student can put his own information. This method could be consider…
La presencia de las lenguas hispánicas en la lexicografía hispano-británica: Captain John Stevens (1706)
2020
El reconocimiento de las distintas lenguas peninsulares tiene un lugar destacado en los paratextos del diccionario de John Stevens, A New Spanish and English Dictionary (1706). Estas ideas se relacionan con otras de obras británicas anteriores como la A Spanish Grammar de John Minsheu (1617) y el Lexicon Tetraglotton de James Howell (1660), que se originan en la Gramática de la lengua vulgar de España publicada en Lovaina (1559). Sin embargo, no se trata de copias o plagios sucesivos del texto original. En este trabajo se analizan las características y la evolución de estas ideas de Stevens sobre la pluralidad lingüística peninsular en la tradición lexicográfica hispano-británica. The recog…
La configuración formal de las palabras idiomáticas originadas por acortamiento en locuciones en español: los casos de amén, estampía, mor y ton
2022
En el presente artículo pretendemos analizar la configuración formal con la que han quedado fijadas cuatro palabras idiomáticas (amén, estampía, mor y ton) que se han formado mediante aféresis, síncopa y apócope, es decir, procesos de acortamiento o eliminación de un fragmento respecto a una base originaria. Nos centraremos en fenómenos habituales que presentan este tipo de voces así formadas, como la estructura silábica, la acentuación paroxítona o la dislocación acentual respecto a sus bases. Reservamos para estudios futuros un análisis fraseológico centrado en los sintagmas y funciones de las cinco locuciones que estas conforman. The aim of this paper is to analyze the morphology of four…
