La vocalidad del violín en el norte de Italia en torno a 1600
2021
Throughout the present research I intend to demonstrate the powerful link between the vocal practice in accompanied monody and the way Early Italian violin music ought to be interpreted. Due to the scarce amount of articulation and ornamentation in this music, I consider that historical criteria should be found in order to back up the subjective choices in its performance. According to this, I focus on reviewing sources that describe the vocal practice around 1600, but also contemporary sources in which we can find instructions addressed to bow instruments. Besides, a catalogue of articulations and ornamentations present in early editions of printed violin music is attached. Last, I comment…
Reassembling and Dissecting: International Relations Practice from a Science Studies Perspective
2007
What does it take to be an international relations (IR) scholar? IR discourses have tackled this question with focus on very different problems: the role and function of IR scholars for policy; the (ir)relevance and impact of IR knowledge and expertise in world politics; disciplinary history; or in studying IR's institutions. We argue that all these “disciplinary sociology” debates struggle with the relation between an internal scientific IR world and an external social context (policy, society). We reject this distinction and argue that science studies can help us to address these problems more adequately by treating IR as a scientific practice that is closely tied to its social environmen…
Pronunciare bene. Fonetica italiana e tedesca a confronto
2017
Come si fa ad acquisire una buona pronuncia? Questo libro – che si rivolge a italofoni che studiano o insegnano il tedesco e a germanofoni che studiano o insegnano l’italiano – mette a disposizione tutto il background teorico necessario per quanto riguarda la pronuncia di entrambe le lingue. La descrizione in parallelo dell’italiano e del tedesco fornisce le basi per un confronto tra i due differenti sistemi fonologici. Che cosa hanno in comune e in che cosa si differenziano? Quali errori ci si può aspettare dagli italofoni che si esprimono in tedesco e dai germanofoni che si esprimono in italiano? Grazie a quali accorgimenti si possono evitare gli errori riuscendo così a “pronunciare bene”…
(Des)vinculación escolar y procesos de acompañamiento en educación secundaria por clase y origen en un municipio de la región metropolitana de Barcel…
2020
El abandono prematuro de la educación y la formación (ATEF) afecta a uno de cada cinco jóvenes entre 18 y 24 años en España (Eurostat, 2019), con importantes diferencias por sexo y clase, y aún mayores por origen. Este artículo analiza la incidencia de la clase social y el origen como factores clave en la (des)vinculación escolar y el alcance de los procesos de acompañamiento escolar y local en las transiciones educativas. El trabajo se inscribe en uno de los dos spin-offs realizados en los municipios del Sabadell y El Prat de Llobregat, centrándose en este último, a partir del proyecto del FP7 Reducing Early School Leaving in Europe (RESL.eu, 2013-2018). Además de confirmar las diferencias…
Interacción y uso de tecnologías en los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje
2020
El nuevo escenario de la sociedad del conocimiento y los desafíos de aprendizaje que debe enfrentar la educación en este milenio han sido determinados por la transformación del mundo en las esferas económicas, políticas y culturales.En este artículo analizamos los procesos de interacción que se producen en los contextos educativos cuando las tecnologías son una oportunidad para lograr cambios profundos que contribuyan a mejorar los procesos de enseñanza aprendizaje desde nuevos planteamientos pedagógicos y curriculares. Todo ello conlleva una reorganización de los centros educativos, la formación y actualización del profesorado y la colaboración de las familias. Los docentes tienen ante sí …
Between constitution and interpretation: Identity as history
2015
The paper focuses on the possibilities to constitute meaning in the „borderline- situations“ (Jaspers) of the social sphere, such as the loss of validity of orientation within and experience of reality in the socially shared structures of the lifeworld. On the one hand, I will refer to A. Schutz’ and his constitution-analysis of foreign understanding and of shared meaning; on the other hand, I bear onto I. Kertesz literary project to narrate the biography of an Auschwitz-survivor as close to his experiential perspective as possible. I will focus both on the concept of constitution and of interpretation with respect to their enabling of the transcending of a typologized everyday’s world whic…
Modeling Listeners’ Emotional Response to Music
2012
An overview of the computational prediction of emotional responses to music is presented. Communication of emotions by music has received a great deal of attention during the last years and a large number of empirical studies have described the role of individual features (tempo, mode, articulation, timbre) in predicting the emotions suggested or invoked by the music. However, unlike the present work, relatively few studies have attempted to model continua of expressed emotions using a variety of musical features from audio-based representations in a correlation design. The construction of the computational model is divided into four separate phases, with a different focus for evaluation. T…
Modernity and the articulation of the gender system: Order, conflict, and chaos
2009
Gender system can be understood as a cultural system rooted in biological differences. Semiotically speaking, it is a binary sign system (male/female) with some variation involved (transsexuals, homosexuals, etc.). In the process of modernity, the biological motivation of the gender system is being loosened by technological innovations such as contraception and mother's milk substitute. At the same time, the state has replaced family and kin as the organizing structure of society and the cultural ideal of equality has gained a strong position. These and similar changes together have made gender flow in 'post-traditional' societies. The paper deals with this process in paying attention to th…
Language development, literacy skills and predictive connections to reading in Finnish children with and without familial risk for dyslexia
2010
Discriminative language markers and predictive links between early language and literacy skills were investigated retrospectively in the Jyväskylä Longitudinal Study of Dyslexia in which children at familial risk for dyslexia have been followed from birth. Three groups were formed on the basis of 198 children’s reading and spelling status. One group of children with reading disability (RD; n = 46) and two groups of typical readers from nondyslexic control (TRC; n = 84) and dyslexic families (TRD; n = 68) were examined from age 1.5 years to school age. The RD group was outperformed by typical readers on numerous language and literacy measures (expressive and receptive language, morphology, …
An appraisal of Piero Sraffa's 'The Laws of Returns under Competitive Conditions'
2001
The paper proposes a new interpretation of Sraffa's 1926 Economic Journal article, ‘The Laws of Returns under Competitive Conditions’, according to which the latter derives from the same strategy of research which underlies its 1925 Italian precursor, ‘Sulle relazioni fra costo e quantità prodotta’. Sraffa tested the explanatory power of a Marshallian monopolistic partial equilibrium model and concluded that that model is able to treat one source of variable returns (firm-internal economies); but this articulation of Marshall‘s theory does not substantially improve on the trade-off between logical consistency and empirical relevance which afflicted the theory in its whole. © 2001, Taylor & …
