Autosuperación hermenéutica de la cultura en la interculturalidad. Hacia una lectura intercultural de la hermenéutica filosófica de Hans-Georg Gadamer
2017
El objetivo es analizar la hermenéutica filosófica de Hans-Georg Gadamer con vistas a considerar la posibilidad de llevar a cabo una lectura intercultural a partir de sus planteamientos. Se cuestiona la lectura intercultural que de la hermenéutica de Gadamer lleva a cabo Ram Adhar Mall. Con Gadamer, pero más allá de él, se detectan las posibilidades y limitaciones de su concepto humanista de cultura (Bildung) y se ensaya un modo de autosuperación hermenéutica de la cultura en la interculturalidad.
Towards EEG-Based Haptic Interaction within Virtual Environments
2019
International audience; Current virtual environments (VE) enable perceiving haptic stimuli to facilitate 3D user interaction, but lack brain-interfacial contents. Using electroencephalography (EEG), we undertook a feasibility study on exploring event-related potential (ERP) patterns of the user's brain responses during haptic interaction within a VE. The interaction was flying a virtual drone along a curved transmission line to detect defects under the stimuli (e.g., force increase and/or vibrotactile cues). We found that there were variations in the peak amplitudes and latencies (as ERP patterns) of the responses at about 200 ms post the onset of the stimuli. The largest negative peak occu…
Use of a Virtual Environment to Engage Motor and Postural Abilities in Elderly Subjects With and Without Mild Cognitive Impairment (MAAMI Project)
2016
Objectives: In the context of rehabilitation, the use of new technology such as Virtual Reality Technology (VRT) offers multiple possibilities to modulate the functional stimulation of subjects according to needs. Material and methods: In this study, the validity and reliability of our VRT system were investigated in fifteen healthy aged adults (HAA) and seven aged subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). One implicit session was designed through two virtual environments (VEs) in order to induce the adapted activities associated with balance and postural control. In comparison, the same activities were achieved in explicit sessions with a physiotherapist. This cross-over study made us…
Josefa Verride y Martina de los Ángeles. El difícil camino hacia la santidad.
2016
Resumen: A través de la información que nos proporcionan las vidas de Josefa Verride, tercera de la orden dominica en Huesca y Martina de los Ángeles, religiosa de la misma orden, fundadora del convento de san Pedro de Benabarre, pretendo aportar nuevas ideas acerca del proceso de adquisición de la fama de santidad de algunas mujeres en la Edad Moderna española. Las órdenes religiosas debieron idear estrategias que ayudasen a legitimar y consolidar la fama de santidad de estas mujeres. Una de estas estrategias fue la vinculación de las religiosas con otras mujeres con fama de santidad, creando genealogías femeninas que les permitiesen perpetuar su memoria y prestigio a lo largo del tiempo. …
Likeness to the Divinity? Virtues and Charismatic Leadership
2012
Classical virtue theory provides a fruitful framework for understanding charismatic leadership. The article outlines the theory of virtues and demonstrates the contribution of virtues to the personality traits and behaviours that are associated with charisma. The virtue of magnanimity of high-mindedness is shown to play a special role. The virtue-based perspective to charismatic leadership clarifies disagreements concerning the definition and delineation of the concept of charisma. It also provides a novel framework for analyzing and criticizing charismatic leadership trainingt programs. Finally, the article demonstrates that the dark side of charisma is a deformation caused by the absence …
Conocimiento, traza e ingenio en la arquitectura valenciana del siglo XV
2012
In the last decades historiography of gothic architecture in the Crown of Aragon has focused on buildings monographs, documentary research and technical change in stone building. On the other hand, historians of technology have given special attention to the issue of innovation and its diffusion in the late Middle Ages, considering building techniques as a particular field of research. This essay studies transmission of technical knowledge in building trades in order to explain architectural changes in an outstanding environment of innovation such as the kingdom of Valencia in the 14th and 15th centuries, especially from 1430 onwards. Having account of previous research and some cases of st…

Nuorten miesten kirjeitse ohjailemat seurustelusuhteet 1800-luvun lopun sisäsuomalaisella maaseudulla
2014
Artikkelissa tarkastellaan 1800-luvun Keuruun käräjäkunnassa, sisäsuomalaisella maaseudulla eläneiden nuorten miesten ja naisten seurustelusuhteiden kehittymistä kohti avioliittoa ja sitä, kuinka tälle tielle alkoi kasautua ongelmia. Tutkimuksen ensisijaisena lähdeaineistona ovat miesten seurustelusuhteiden aikana kumppaneilleen lähettämät intiimit yksityiskirjeet (12 kappaletta), jotka naiset olivat tuoneet aviottoman lapsen elatusoikeudenkäynteihin todisteeksi suhteen aikaisesta seksuaalisesta kanssakäymisestä. Artikkeli sijoittuu kansanihmisten kirjoittamia tekstejä tarkastelevaan monitieteiseen historiantutkimuksen alaan. Artikkelissa esitetään, että kirjeet kirjoittaneet miehet pyrkivä…
LA PEDAGOGIA IMPLICITA IN SAN JOSEMARÍA ESCRIVÁ DE BALAGUER
2015
Escrivá non è stato un pedagogista ma un formatore, non ha scritto un trattato di Pedagogia ma durante la sua vita (1902-1975) ha formato centinaia di migliaia di persone di tutte le età e condizioni. Dagli scritti e dalle opere di san Josemaría Escrivá, fondatore dell’Opus Dei (una istituzione gerarchica della Chiesa cattolica, che si propone di diffondere una profonda presa di coscienza della chiamata universale alla santità e del valore santificante del lavoro ordinario), è possibile ricavare alcuni canoni ispiratori dell’azione educativa e formativa, una vera e propria “pedagogia implicita”. L’antropologia di riferimento di Escrivá si radica nella considerazione che ogni uomo è figlio d…
Les modalités linguistiques du commentaire sur internet comme prise de position ("stance-taking"): l'exemple des commentaires sur YouTube
2015
International audience; Sur Internet, le commentaire est par essence un lieu argumentatif. Réagir à un article, une vidéo, une image ou à n’importe quelle prise de parole, est l’occasion pour l’utilisateur du Web 2.0 de donner son opinion, de contredire, confirmer, infirmer, interpeller, dénoncer, c’est-à-dire dans tous les cas prendre position. En effet, comme l’écrivent David Barton et Carmen Lee dans Language Online : Investigating Digital Texts and Practices, commenter est un acte qui consiste à se positionner et positionner les autres, c’est-à-dire une véritable prise de position (« Commenting is an important act of positioning oneself and others, that is stance-taking », Barton et Lee…
