Source of Happiness: Festivities and Celebrations to Mark the Centenary of the Gas Industry in France and the 50th Anniversary of the Société Technique de L’industrie du Gaz (1924)
For the first time, in this chapter, we analyze the activities organized in 1924 by
the Société Technique de la l’industrie du gaz (Société Technique) in Paris to celebrate its
50th anniversary and the beginning of the gas industry in France in that capital in 1824,
that is, its centenary. The Société Technique organized several events. These included the
installation of a commemorative plaque in tribute to Philippe Lebon and an exhibition
aimed at informing the general public and the gas community about the past and present of
the gas industry to promote advocacy and historical memory. It is accompanied by a major
party at La place de l’Opéra, the association’s Congress, Gas Week and the publication of a
book on the history of the gas industry in France. Most of these activities were aimed at the
general public and were very well received. The text is based on unpublished documentation,
consisting mainly of the press of the time – general and specialized – photographs of
the events and the book that the Société Technique published that year on the occasion of
its 47th Congress. This association wanted to share with Parisians and visitors to the 1924
Olympic Games, as well as with the gas community, its joy at the gas industry’s contribution
to the well- being of the French people by providing gas as a source of light, heat and
movement. To this end, it organized celebrations and events to pay tribute to gas and the
great deeds and men who had made France the leading gas power in continental Europe
through the participation of culture – through music, artists, theatrical performances,
cinema- . Important traditional and Parisian cultural and political figures attended many
of these activities. We will show that the commemoration was a success, with thousands
of people enjoying free activities organized for the general public. In short, the events we
are studying here, which took place between May and June 1924, brought happiness to gas
industry members, especially the French, and also to the public, who could enjoy them.
Happiness, too, because they served to recall past events and the achievements of the gas
industry in France. Happiness, too, because the activities were designed to make those
involved in the gas industry proud of the development that gas had achieved by 1924 and
to look forward to the future with optimism. The work is structured in four parts. In the
introduction, we set out the objectives; in the second part, we analyze why the Société Technique organized the commemoration; in the third, how the celebrations link to happiness
and well- being; in the fourth, we present the most relevant conclusions
Interest and use of the phraseological units collected by Juan de Iriarte (1774)
Proyecto Variación y codificación fraseológica en la historia del español (siglos XIII-XVIII) (CODIFRAS) con referencia PID2023-152770NB-I00, financiado por el Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (Proyectos Generación de Conocimientos 2023)En el presente trabajo, además de recordar la importancia para los estudios de fraseología de Refranes castellanos traducidos en verso latino (1774), obra del humanista y latinista canario Juan de Iriarte, representante de la Ilustración española, nos ocupamos del recorrido histórico y la vigencia del grupo de somatismos con barba recogidos en ella. A tal fin y partiendo de los estudios de fraseología y, concretamente, de la investigación en el ámbito de los somatismos, hemos extraído manualmente las unidades fraseológicas somáticas que allí aparecen, clasificándolas por el somatónimo que incluyen. Luego, hemos aislado los fraseologismos con barba y establecido grupos teniendo cuenta el valor semántico y simbólico que este elemento somático representa. Seguidamente hemos analizado, sirviéndonos de la bibliografía pertinente y de los corpus de referencia del español, algunas de estas unidades para verificar su empleo en la actualidad. Por último, concluimos que la mayor parte de las unidades con este lexema somático se encuentra en desuso, entre otros motivos, porque la simbología subyacente ya no se condice con los actuales valores culturales.In this paper, in addition to recalling the importance for phraseology studies of Refranes castellanos traducidos en verso latino by the Canarian humanist and Latinist Juan de Iriarte, representative of the Spanish Enlightenment, we deal with the historical background and the validity of the group of somatisms with barba (‘beard’) collected in this work. To this end, and starting from the studies of phraseology and, specifically, from the research in the field of somatisms, we have manually extracted the somatic phraseological units that appear there, classifying them by the somatonym they include. Then, we isolated the phraseologisms with barba and established groups taking into account the semantic and symbolic value that this somatonym represents. Next, we have analyzed, using the relevant bibliography and Spanish reference corpora, some of these units to verify their current use. Finally, we conclude that most of the units with this somatic lexeme are in disuse, among other reasons, because the underlying symbolism is no longer in line with current cultural values.Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades PID2023-152770NB-I0
Creencias de autoeficacia de docentes en formación para promover la autonomía de los estudiantes en la enseñanza de inglés
Preservice teachers’ self-efficacy beliefs influence their willingness and ability to promote learner autonomy in schools. This study aimed to investigate the self-efficacy beliefs of a group of preservice teachers in an initial English language teacher education programme, where they were prepared and encouraged to promote pedagogy for autonomy. Data were gathered through questionnaires and focus group interviews. Findings indicate a relatively high sense of self-efficacy regarding the promotion of learner autonomy. Personal and contextual factors that enable or constrain those beliefs were identified, with implications for how initial teacher education programmes may foster preservice teachers’ readiness to value and enact learner-centred pedagogies.Las creencias de autoeficacia de los docentes en formación influyen en su disposición y habilidad para promover la autonomía en las escuelas. Este estudio investiga las creencias de autoeficacia de un grupo de docentes en formación en un programa de formación docente inicial en enseñanza de inglés que promovía la pedagogía para la autonomía. Los datos se recopilaron mediante cuestionarios y grupos focales. Los resultados indican un sentido relativamente alto de autoeficacia con respecto a la promoción de la autonomía. Se identificaron factores personales y contextuales que permiten o limitan estas creencias, con implicaciones sobre cómo los programas de formación docente inicial pueden fomentar la preparación de futuros docentes para valorar e implementar pedagogías centradas en el aprendiz.This work is funded by the Universidad de Granada (programme for short research stays) and the Research Centre on Education, Institute of Education (CIEd), University of Minho, projects UIDB/01661/2020 and UIDP/01661/2020, through national funds of FCT/MCTES-PT

Electrodes for pH Sensing Based on Stainless Steel: Mechanism, Surface Modification, Potentiometric Performance, and Prospects
The fabrication of miniaturized and durable pH electrodes is a key requirement for developing advanced analytical devices for both industrial and biomedical applications. Glass electrodes are not an option in these cases. Electrodes based on metal oxides have been the most studied for pH sensing in these and other applications. Stainless steel pH electrodes have been an option for many years, both for measurement using steel as a sensitive material and using it as a substrate for the deposition of other metal oxides; in the latter case, the sensitive ability of stainless steel seems to play a crucial role. In addition, recent use as a substrate for materials such as polymers, carbon nanotubes, and metallic nanoparticles should be considered. This paper presents a review of this type of pH electrode, covering aspects related to the sensing mechanism, the treatment of stainless steel, potentiometric performances, applications, and the prospects of these sensors for use in modern analytical instruments. Sensing with the oxide passive layer and the artificial layer by oxidation treatments is analyzed. The use of metal oxides and other materials as the sensitive layer on stainless steel, their application in wearable devices, microneedle sensors, and combination with field-effect transistors for high-temperature pH sensing are covered as the most current and promising applications
Resisting from the Wound: Nuclear Fiction, Trauma, and Corporeality in Marina Perezagua’s Yoro
El presente artículo analiza la novela Yoro de Marina Perezagua desde un enfoque interdisciplinario que combina la narrativa nuclear, los estudios del trauma y los estudios críticos de la corporalidad. A través de estos marcos teóricos, se examina cómo la obra articula la vulnerabilidad de los cuerpos marcados por la violencia nuclear, la memoria histórica y la exclusión social con un enfoque particular en las identidades trans. El cuerpo de H, la protagonista, es un cuerpo enfermo que se configura como un receptáculo de memoria y símbolo de la resistencia política frente a lo normativo. Al incluir la perspectiva trans, la obra transgrede y expande las fronteras de la narrativa nuclear, otorgando agencia y capacidad de transformación al cuerpo. El artículo explora cómo la obra amalgama lo personal y lo colectivo, haciendo del trauma y de la exclusión herramientas literarias de resistencia.The paper analyses Marina Perezagua’s novel Yoro through an interdisciplinary approach that combines nuclear fiction, trauma studies, and critical studies of corporeality. Using these theoretical frameworks, the article explores how the novel articulates the vulnerability of bodies marked by nuclear violence, historical memory, and social exclusion, particularly within the context of trans identities. The protagonist, H, embodies a body marked by physical vulnerability, serving as both a repository of memory and a site of political resistance against social norms. Yoro not only broadens the scope of nuclear fiction by incorporating trans perspectives but also redefines corporeality as an act of agency and transformation. The analysis highlights how the novel intertwines personal and collective dimensions, turning trauma and exclusion into literary tools of resistance
