La tragedia de Sófocles Antígona ha sido objeto de innumerables versiones, interpretaciones y traducciones a lo largo de la historia de la cultura occidental. La acción de la joven hija de Edipo que entierra a su hermano Polinices a pesar de la expresa prohibición real, la rebeldía de una mujer que arrastra consigo la turbulenta historia de su linaje, ha permitido replantear cuestiones esenciales de la existencia humana todavía vigentes. Antígona alumbra aún hoy problemas tales como la cuestión del derecho al duelo –allí donde hay todavía muertos sin enterrar o desaparecidos a los que no les ha sido restituida su dignidad simbólica–, experiencias como la muerte del otro, así como la decisión de la muerte propia consentida, la cuestión tan debatida hoy en torno a la fraternidad como cimiento de lo común, y aun la temática del género que las filosofías feministas de la diferencia se hanpropuesto repensar a partir de esta obstinada figura. Los textos que constituyen el presente volumen tratan de dar cuenta de las diversas aproximaciones que la tragedia de Antígona ha suscitado.
Descripción / Resumen (Español / Castellano): La presente publicación, bajo el título Folcsonomías, expone el contenido de una selección de obras que he realizado recientemente y relata su recorrido expositivo, organizado en base a dos proyectos individuales que discurren en paralelo a lo largo de 2016. Uno se refiere a las obras que nacen de mi interés por el Big Data y que componen diferentes relatos con obras en pintura, instalación mural y dibujo. Es el proyecto que llamo Sombras_Big_Dat@. El segundo proyecto refleja mi actividad en torno al grabado, la serigrafía y la estampa digital y que he llamado 32 bits_memoria_grafica. El libro se estructura así en dos partes, comenzando por el proyecto Sombras_Big_Dat@ y en concreto, con su exposición en el Museo de Salamanca, ya que aquí he mostrado el conjunto de obras que componen el proyecto en las mejores condiciones de espacio e iluminación, lo que nos ha permitido recoger interesantes escenas fotográficas en sala y visiones de las obras que dan una idea muy aproximada de los trabajos que he realizado. La segunda parte de esta publicación documenta la exposición titulada 32_bits_memoria_grafica, con trabajos en grabado y obra impresa. A lo largo de mi trayectoria, crear proyectos a través de estos medios ha sido y es fundamental: no sólo complementa la actividad creativa que realizo con otras disciplinas, sino que me proporciona otras vías de pensamiento y de presentación de mis ideas. El Patronato del Museo del Grabado de Artes seleccionó el proyecto y me ofreció la oportunidad de mostrar un recorrido de varios años de actividad que estructuré en base a ocho ejes temáticos: Energías, Presencias, Diálogos, Silencios, Lugares y territorios, Ecos y apariciones, Entramados humanos y Paisajes soñados, fueron los ejes sobre los que pivotaban 32 obras, realizadas con grabado calcográfico, serigrafía y estampa digital. El conjunto de obras así agrupadas compuso un clima significativo que favorecía la comprensión y sintonía con las obras y sus cruces de significados.Descripción / Resumen (Inglés): The current publication, entitled Folksonomies, sets out the contents of a selection of works I have done lately and it recounts its exhibit walkthrough, organized on the basis of two individual projects which run parallel throughout 2016. One of them relates to the works arisin­g­ from my interest in Big Data and which is composed of different accounts with works in painting, mural installation and drawing. It is the project I have called Sombras_Big_Dat@. The second Project is about my activity around engraving, silk screen printing and digital printing which I have named 32 bits_memoria_grafica. The book is thus structured in two parts, starting with the Sombras_Big_Dat@ project and specifically, its showing at the Salamanca Museum, as I have shown here the set of works which comprise the project in the best conditions of space and illumination, which afforded us to collect some interesting photographic scenes on site and views of works which render quite an accurate idea of the jobs I have done. The second part of this publication documents the exhibition called 32_bits_memoria_grafica, with works in engraving and printed work. Throughout my career, creating projects with these means has been and still is crucial: not only does it complement the creative activity I do with other disciplines, but it also provides me with other channels for my thoughts and presentation of ideas. The council of the Arts Engraving Museum chose my project and I was offered a chance to show a walkthrough of several years of activity which I structured on the basis of eight thematic axes: Energies, Presences, Dialogs, Silences, Places and territories, Echos and appearances, Human schemes and Dream landscapes, around which 32 works spin, executed with chalcographic engraving, digital printing and silk screen printing. The set of works grouped in such fashion composed a remarkable atmosphere which contributed to the understanding and tuning in with the works and their crossed meanings.
This book explores the influence of right-wing political cultures (including conservatism, political Catholicism, reactionary nationalism and fascism) on nation-building processes and the creation of national identities in modern times. The chapters extend the focus of analysis across the different cultures and movements of the Right, their broad geographical spread, as well as cultural factors. Adopting a transnational perspective, this volume highlights the significance of a series of processes – such as the growth of nationalist imaginaries and political cultures – that extended beyond national boundaries and were often articulated via cross-border dynamics. Special attention is paid to the political cultures and transnational networks of the Right in Europe and Latin America. Case studies including countries such as Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, Brazil and Argentina provide the reader with a broad overview of the circulation of right-wing and conservative thinking. Through an innovative approach, this volume offers scholars, students and the interested reader a valuable historical perspective to understand the development and expansion of right-wing nationalist and authoritarian positions.
In an era where misinformation proliferates across various channels, this collection of essays emerges as a vital resource for understanding and addressing this complex phenomenon. Stemming from the International Congress of Post-truth held in Granada, this anthology features contributions from scholars and practitioners spanning communication, politics, technology, philosophy, history, law, and education. Through interdisciplinary dialogue, the collection navigates the intricacies of post-truth, exploring its sociocultural, technological, and epistemological dimensions. With chapters organized into distinct sections, readers delve into the intersections and differences between a wide range of disciplines. Assembled with expertise and rigor, this anthology provides insights into the challenges of our post-truth age and underscores the importance of collaborative efforts in promoting truth-oriented discourse. Aimed at researchers, policymakers, educators, and media professionals, this volume serves as a cornerstone for ongoing dialogue and action in confronting the complexities of post-truth in today’s society.
The international human rights system remains as dynamic as ever. If at the end of the last century there was a sense that the normative and institutional development of the system had been completed and that the emphasis should shift to issues of implementation, nothing of the sort occurred. Even over the last few years significant changes happened, as this book amply demonstrates. We hope that this Manual makes a contribution to the development of International Human Rights Law and is of interest for those working in the field of promotion and protection of human rights. The book is the result of a joint project under the auspices of HumanitarianNet, a Thematic Network led by the University of Deusto, and the European Inter-University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation (EIUC, Venice).
Analyzes theatrical texts and performances while providing political and historical mappings. In The Aesthetics of the Ephemeral, Jennifer Duprey examines five contemporary plays from Barcelona: Olors and Testament by Josep Maria Benet i Jornet, Antígona by Jordi Coca, Forasters by Sergi Belbel, and Temptació by Carles Batlle. She argues that in both the theatrical text and its performance an aesthetics of the ephemeral materializes that is related to specific manifestations of cultural and historical memory in Spain and Catalonia. These manifestations of memory include historical concerns such as the possibility of another form of justice in predicaments of violence after the Civil War, and they also include contemporary issues such as the production of ruins by the processes of gentrification in Barcelona, the complexity of immigration in Spain, and the destruction or preservation of Catalan cultural legacies. In her analysis of these topics, Duprey engages and expands on theories related to questions of subjectivity and identity in late modernity. This book will be of interest to those concerned with Iberian cultural studies and with how theater reflects on and contributes to contemporary political dialogue.
