Ficción y compromiso ontológico

2014

En este trabajo me ocupo de la semántica de los términos de ficción, en el marco de una posición de tipo abstractista (KRIPKE 2011 y 2013, VAN INWAGEN 1977, SALMON 1998 y 2002, THOMASSON 1999, PREDELLI 1997, 2002 y 2005 y VOLTOLINI 2011). En particular, me concentro en dos problemas que afectan a este tipo de posiciones: el primero de ellos es dar cuenta de la verdad intuitiva de enunciados como "Ulises duerme en la playa de Ithaca"; el segundo es explicar la aceptación, también intuitiva, de que "Ulises no existe" es un enunciado verdadero. In this paper I am concerned with a variant of Kripke´s abstractist theory of fiction, namely, the semantic theory according to which proper names and …

Tell me a story and I will tell you who you are! Lens model analyses of personality and creative writing

2010

Abstract We elucidated the accuracy of personality judgments based on creative writing by means of lens model analyses. Targets ( N  = 79) wrote short stories with five predefined words. Observers rated the Big Five dimensions and general knowledge of the targets who wrote these stories. Three main findings were revealed: (a) the Big Five and general knowledge were consensually judged by observers; (b) judgments of openness to experience, agreeableness, and general knowledge were accurate; and (c) accuracies were achieved due to the correct usage of valid cues. Additionally, we replicated all results in a second sample of targets ( N =  126). Results are discussed in comparison to other are…

Tinker, Tailor…: Creativity in Foreign Language Learning and Teaching

2017

The word creativity has recently won great popularity in numerous contexts, showing both positive (“creative writing”) and negative (“creative accounting”) connotations. The concept itself has many meanings as it may refer to the end product of one’s activity, the cognitive processes involved in the creative act, the personality of a creative person, the development of creativity across the life span, and also the factors that either stimulate or inhibit the process of creation (Łukasik, 2015; Simonton, 2000). There is also a distinction between exceptional creativity, manifesting itself in important works that are significant for a given society, and everyday creativity, which can be obser…

Planetary activism at the end of the world: Feminist and posthumanist imaginaries beyond Man

2022

We are currently experiencing a planetary crisis that will lead, if worst comes to worst, to the end of the entire world as we know it. Several feminist scholars have suggested that if the Earth is to stay livable for humans and nonhumans alike, the ways in which many human beings – particularly in the wealthy parts of the world, infested with Eurocentrism, (neo)colonialism, neoliberalism, and capitalism – inhabit this planet requires radical, ethical, and political transformation. In this article, we propose that feminist theory, particularly feminist posthumanities, and Black feminist and decolonial thought, together with creative practices such as writing, have much to contribute to tra…

Within the nonfiction piece, four themes were presented as findings of the study: social aspects, personal and emotional aspects, writer identity aspects, and pedagogical aspects. The results suggest that utilising creative writing methods in qualitative research can raise otherwise hidden voic…

Poesía, género y educación: de Mistral y Storni a Luque, Lanseros y Berbel

2021

espanolLa poesia escrita por mujeres en espanol no ha obtenido en el curriculum ni en los libros de texto de Secundaria el espacio que mereceria. Por ello en este trabajo presentamos una propuesta didactica para acercarla a los estudiantes de ultimo curso, que persigue, ademas, propiciar una fertil reflexion en torno a topicos de genero diversos, su formacion en calidad de lectores criticos, una iniciacion a la escritura creativa y una construccion reflexiva de sus identidades genericas. Previamente realizamos una breve introduccion teorica en la que analizamos los factores conducentes a la relegacion de la poesia en Secundaria, las practicas que se aconsejan y desaconsejan para una educaci…
