« Lyrisme et probité »: Ce que le structuralisme doit au surréalisme
No full textHow can we assess what philosophy or a human science owes to an artistic movement ? To explore this question, I take the example of Lévi-Strauss's relationship with Surrealism. While the relationship between the founder of structural anthropology and André Breton has already been studied from a historical perspective, it remains to be seen what structuralism owes philosophically to Surrealism. When Lévi-Strauss acknowledged the movement's “lyricism and probity” in 1960, was he suggesting that its influence was as much aesthetic as ethical ? To verify this hypothesis, I take two cases of intellectual encounters between Lévi-Strauss and Surrealism: the hasard objectif, and the definition of the subject. This second example will furthermore enable us to relate surrealism to the anthropologist's other great mentor, Rousseau.How can we assess what philosophy or a human science owes to an artistic movement ?

“Un indovinello a figure”: Magritte e l’arte come rebus
No full textThe relationship between surrealism and psychoanalysis can be understood from two perspectives, depending on how one approaches the dream: either as a visual representation of an otherworldly, surreal world, or as a way to access an unconscious meaning whose syntax must first and foremost be reconstructed. Based on what Freud writes in chapter 6 of The Interpretation of Dreams, where he refers to the dream as a “rebus,” this duality will first be illustrated using the paintings of Dalí and Magritte. The analysis will then focus on Magritte (with particular attention to La trahison des images) and attempt to emphasise the not primarily iconic, but rather conceptual character of his painting, which through its semantic and syntactic incongruities, shows to be a reflection on the pre-positive conditions of meaning. According to the inversion of perspective that Breton identifies in Surrealist art, as opposed to Alberti’s window, Magritte’s window opens onto the subject: it stages, through the production of a certain non-sense, “the real functioning of thought,” that condition of possibility so clearly expressed in La condition humaine.The relationship between surrealism and psychoanalysis can be understood from two perspectives, depending on how one approaches the dream: either as a visual representation of an otherworldly, surreal world, or as a way to access an unconscious meaning whose syntax must first and foremost be reconstructed.

Participatory land suitability evaluation for agroecological transition: insights from the BIAN project, Ecuador
No full textThis study, carried out in the framework of the Biocorridor Andes North Project in Ecuador's Northern Andes, uses participatory methodologies, combining Geographic Information Systems with local knowledge, to assess the perceived land suitability of most relevant land uses in Mariano Acosta, El Carmelo and Tabacundo parishes. This approach, employing Pairwise Ranking and the Analytic Hierarchy Process, ensures that land use evaluation, and following technical recommendations, are both scientifically sound and aligned with community needs and priorities. Preliminary results show promising suitability maps, indicating needs for adjustment in the overlay methodology
Assessing the impact of sustianable tourism on poverty reduction and social inclusion in Bamiyan
No full textSustainable tourism development in regions like Bamiyan necessitates a comprehensive approach that addresses environmental, cultural, and socio-economic aspects of sustainability. Despite witnessing a promising influx of tourists in recent years, Bamiyan faces sustainability challenges that must be tackled to ensure long-term viability. This study investigates the impact of sustainable mountain tourism in poverty reduction and social inclusion in Bamiyan through a descriptive-analytical method and cluster sampling strategy, focusing on the attitudes of tourism stakeholders and beneficiaries towards sustainability practices. The findings reveal a significant contribution of tourism practices to poverty reduction and social inclusion
Alessandra di Antiochia, una donna colta nell’Epistolario di Libanio
No full textThis contribution aims to investigate the figure of Alexandra of Antioch, one of Libanius’ three female correspondents. Through the translation and commentary of some passages of the epistles addressed to her or quoting her, it is provided a prosopographical reconstruction of the woman, who was admired by her contemporaries for the depth of her intellect and for her culture. Well-known to leading figures of the Julian court and even to the emperor himself (Lib. Ep. 802), her letters were appreciated even by an experienced epistolographer as Libanius. Perhaps, Alexandra was also the writer of a work of Homeric tradition that has been lost (Lib. Ep. 771). The article also intends to focus on the situation of women’s education in the 4th century in Antioch and the occasions in which it could have public visibility.Il presente contributo si propone di indagare la figura di Alessandra di Antiochia, una delle tre corrispondenti femminili di Libanio. Attraverso la traduzione e il commento di alcuni passi delle epistole che la vedono destinataria o la citano, si fornisce una ricostruzione prosopografica della donna, la quale è ammirata dai contemporanei per la profondità del suo intelletto e per la sua cultura. Nota a personaggi di primo piano della corte giulianea e anche all’imperatore stesso (Lib. Ep. 802), le sue lettere erano apprezzate persino da un epistolografo esperto come Libanio. Forse, Alessandra fu anche scrittrice di un’opera di tradizione omerica andata perduta (Lib. Ep. 771). Il contributo intende inoltre soffermarsi sulla situazione dell’istruzione femminile nel IV sec. ad Antiochia e sulle occasioni in cui potesse avere pubblica visibilità
La gente de mar: análisis de estrategias y recursos discursivos para la crítica de la marina española entre los siglos XIX y XX
No full textLa primera y segunda partes de La gente de mar, obra realizada por Dionisio Múxica y Cortés —capitán de marina mercante retirado y antiguo piloto de la Armada a las órdenes del capitán de navío de primera clase D. José Emilio José Butrón y de la Serna, a quien se dedica la obra—, fue escrito en 1886, revisado por el autor diez años después y editado en 1900, en su versión de 1896, por uno de los hijos del homenajeado, Ángel Butrón y Linares, a modo de reconocimiento póstumo a todos aquellos hombres de la mar cuyas virtudes encarnaba su padre.
Tanto en la primera parte, intitulada Los habitantes del buque, compuesta por treinta y un capítulos, como en la segunda, Marinos en tierra, de treinta y seis, nos presenta el autor, junto a la descripción de las tareas propias de cada uno de los componentes de la tripulación —que incluye una alabanza permanente a los mismos—, una crítica sin ambages a la dirección y gestión de la Armada por parte de políticos y militares —especialmente en la segunda parte—, un juicio político, en el que no se escatima en recursos argumentativos y persuasivos —que aquí trataremos de analizar desde una perspectiva pragmalingüística—, que configuran un discurso característico de la época, en que se alternan el nivel culto con el medio y los registros formal con el coloquial en un estilo hiperbólico, altisonante y, en ocasiones, histriónico.The first and second parts of La gente de mar, a work carried out by Dionisio Múxica y Cortés - retired merchant marine captain and former Navy pilot under the command of the first class ship captain D. José Emilio José Butrón y de la Serna , to whom the work is dedicated—was written in 1886, revised by the author ten years later and edited in 1900 in its 1896 version by one of the sons of the honoree, Ángel Butrón y Linares, as a posthumous recognition to all those men of the sea, whose virtues his father embodied. Both in the first part, entitled Los habitantes del buque, composed of thirty-one chapters, and in the second, Marinos en tierra, of thirty-six, the author presents us, along with the description of the tasks of each of the the components of the crew - which includes permanent praise for them -, an unequivocal criticism of the direction and management of the Navy by politicians and military - especially in the second part -, a political trial, in which no It skimps on argumentative and persuasive resources - which here we will try to analyze from a pragmalinguistic perspective - which make up a characteristic discourse of the time, in which the cultured level alternates with the medium and the formal registers with the colloquial in a hyperbolic style. bombastic and, at times, histrionic
El galeón del diablo: la desventura del San Jerónimo en aguas del océano Pacífico (1566)
No full textEn este trabajo abordaremos el motín del galeón San Jerónimo en aguas del océano Pacífico. Su importancia e interés está en contar con un completo relato del suceso y redactado por uno de sus protagonistas, cuyo contenido y análisis nos ha permitido conocer en profundidad cómo se gesta un motín en alta mar. Así, el presente estudio lo iniciamos con unos claros antecedentes en la armada de Legazpi y su situación de necesidad, causas del apresto y envío del San Jerónimo. Luego se desarrolla los preparativos de ese primer socorro en base a la correspondencia de la Real Audiencia de México y las autoridades locales para reunir pertrechos y hombres. Posteriormente, analizamos la figura de Juan Martínez de Arestizábal, autor del relato, así como de su relación, para después imbuirnos en el espeluznante viaje del galeón y su tripulación con sus desventuras, tragedias y descubrimientos insulares. Finalmente, en los dos últimos apartados tratamos el destino final del galeón tras su llegada a Cebú y las posibles teorías sobre Lope Martín y los abandonados en una isla tras recuperar el barco los leales a la Corona.In this work we will address the mutiny of the galleon San Jerónimo in the waters of the Pacific Ocean. Its importance and interest lie in having a complete account of the event written by one of its protagonists, whose content and analysis has allowed us to know in depth how a mutiny on the high seas takes place. Thus, we begin this study with a clear background on the Legazpi navy and its situation of need, causes of the preparation and sending of the San Jerónimo. Then the preparations for that first relief are developed based on the correspondence of the Royal Court of Mexico and the local authorities to gather supplies and men. Subsequently, we analyze the figure of Juan Martínez de Arestizábal, author of the story, as well as their relationship, and then immerse ourselves in the terrifying journey of the galleon and its crew with their misadventures, tragedies and island discoveries. Finally, in the last two sections we discuss the final destination of the galleon after its arrival in Cebu and the possible theories about Lope Martín and those abandoned on an island after those loyal to the Crown recovered the ship
Da Plutarco a Gómara: il viaggio mediterraneo della cronaca storica. Virtù del modello classico nel resoconto della battaglia navale di Algeri (1541)
No full textThis work focuses on the testimonial account of one of the most unfortunate naval battles of the empire of Charles V: the day of Algiers in 1541. We will analyse the Greco-Latin model and its influence on the humanist chronicle of Francisco López de Gómara. The author went to the contest and described a humiliating defeat for both Emperor Charles V and Hernán Cortés. To do this, he used the resources of the classical epic also present in his account of the conquest of Tenochtitlan. As we will see, thanks to this historiographical model he achieved an epic and rigorous story.
Abstract: Questo articolo approfondisce il resoconto testimoniale di una delle più sfortunate battaglie navali dell'impero di Carlo V: il giorno di Algeri del 1541. Analizzeremo il modello greco-latino e la sua influenza sulla cronaca umanistica di Francisco López de Gómara. L'autore partecipò alla gara e descrisse una sconfitta umiliante sia per l'imperatore Carlo V che per Hernán Cortés. Per fare questo, Gómara utilizzò le risorse dell'epica classica presenti anche nel suo racconto della conquista di Tenochtitlan. Come vedremo, grazie a questo modello storiografico è stata realizzata realizzata una storia epica e rigorosa
La relexicalización del lenguaje marinero mediante la metáfora
No full textLa metáfora es un recurso literario que traslada el significado literal de una palabra a uno figurado, reflejando así cómo entendemos el mundo. Este estudio se enfoca en analizar la metáfora en el lenguaje de los marineros para entender cómo los términos cotidianos adquieren significados ampliados en su contexto profesional. Utilizando de base el Diccionario Marítimo Español de Timoteo O’Scanlan (1831), se investigará cómo la pragmática y la metáfora influyen en la expansión del significado de palabras en el léxico marítimo. Primero se abordará la teoría sobre la adquisición del lenguaje y la pragmática, y luego se analizará el uso metafórico en el vocabulario de los marineros.
Metaphor is a literary device that translates the literal meaning of a word into a figurative one, thus reflecting how we understand the world. This study focuses on analysing metaphor in the language of seafarers to understand how everyday terms acquire expanded meanings in their professional context. Using Timoteo O'Scanlan's Spanish Maritime Dictionary (1831) as a basis, it will investigate how pragmatics and metaphor influence the expansion of the meaning of words in the maritime lexicon. First, the theory of language acquisition and pragmatics will be addressed, and then metaphorical usage in the vocabulary of seafarers will be analysed.Metaphor is a literary device that translates the literal meaning of a word into a figurative one, thus reflecting how we understand the world.
