La evolución del empleo en el sector ferroviario español, 1893-1935
Get PDFEditada en la Fundación Empresa PúblicaEn este trabajo se presenta una estimación inédita sobre la oferta de empleo en el sector ferroviario español entre 1893 y 1935. Los datos anuales publicados por el conocido Anuario de los Ferrocarriles han sido miniciosamente depurados y contrastados con documentación relativa a las dos grandes compañías: Norte y MZA. Los resultados confirman la bondad de la fuente y realzan el enorme dinamismo de este peculiar mercado de trabajo: las cifras de empleo se triplicaron entre 1893 y 1935. La documentación analizada pone de manifiesto además la existencia de un mercado de trabajo segmentado.This article is a novel study on previously unedited data regarding employment in the Spanish Railway sector between the years 1893-1935.

The resulting findings show the dynamic nature of this labour market. Between 1893 aln 1935 amployment figures tripled.

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
