The medicalization of suicide in 19th century Spain: theoretical, professional and cultural aspects
2012
This paper analyzes the medicalization process of suicide in Spain during the 19th century. It describes the transition of suicide seen as an act of free will to a model, developed by mental doctors, which considered it a pathological behavior. Against this model, other conservative positions from the fields of Law and Medicine continued to defend the traditional view. The initial interest of mental medicine regarding the social aspects of suicide was developed during this period. The social factor that authors considered to be the most influential to suicide was the loss of religious ideas, which was understandable considering that religion was very present in Spanish science and society t…
[Los laboratorios de la Junta para Ampliación de Estudios e Investigaciones Científicas (J.A.E.) y la Residencia de Estudiantes (1912-1939)].
2007
La política de jóvenes pensionados científicos en el extranjero desarrollada por la JAE tuvo un complemento importante en la puesta en marcha de una serie de pequeños laboratorios científicos y centros de investigación agrupados principalmente en el Instituto Nacional de Ciencias y la Residencia de Estudiantes. El presente artículo aporta una perspectiva general de la labor realizada por algunos de esos laboratorios, sus principales protagonistas y grupos de investigación, particularmente los relacionados con las investigaciones biomédicas. No se analiza la labor del Instituto Cajal o el Museo de Ciencias Naturales, que son objeto de otras contribuciones en este mismo número monográfico. Se…
Why are there no comprehensively digital scholarly editions of classical texts?
2018
Currently, no 'canonical' classical text with a multi-testimonial tradition has a digital scholarly edition based on a complete digital transcription of all primary sources, and on the automated collation of those transcriptions. Most classicists simply do not feel that they need such editions. I argue that this is ultimately due to the 'canonization' of the corpus of classical texts. Classicists are more focussed on the 'Text' than on the documents (manuscripts) and their texts: they tend not to consider the textual variance in the manuscripts as culturally meaningful in itself, but merely instrumental in view of the constitutio textus. I suspect that we will not have 'comprehensively digi…
Science and law in the time of cholera: the mystery of the biscuits in Torroja (1865)
2018
By focussing on a case of collective poisoning in 1865, four features of forensic cultures are analysed: technologies for detection, authorized voices, regulations in action and the predominant social anxieties. Local newspapers and archival documents kept in the medical academies of Barcelona and Madrid are analysed. The analysis shows the tensions between various types of proof employed in legal medicine and the ambiguities between epidemic diseases and poisoning accidents. In the first section, I review the fears caused by the cholera epidemic in 1865, which was the first explanation of the accident. The changes of popular perception are also discussed by analysing contemporary newspaper…

Tot i pertànyer a generacions diferents i representar formes diferents d’aproximació a l’estudi de la natura, Humboldt i Darwin comparteixen el fet de tenir en l’aventura individual d’un gran viatge iniciàtic la fita determinant de la seva fructífera carrera científica.

Towards a digital model to edit the different paratextuality levels within a textual tradition
2008
In the textual tradition of a literary work, our sources (manuscripts, printed books etc.) commonly bear, together with the "main text", different kinds of "paratexts" commenting on it (including interlinear annotations, glosses, scholia, footnotes, modern scholarly introductions and commentaries, and many others). This article proposes a unified model for a document-based digital critical edition including both the 'main texts' and the 'paratexts' as they appear in different single sources. The problematic aspects of such an "enlarged" digital edition are discussed, including the relations between the different 'paratexts' and the 'main text' they refer to 'within each single textual sourc…
