Adhesive/repulsive codes in vertebrate forebrain morphogenesis
No full text© 2014 by the authors. The last fifteen years have seen the identification of some of the mechanisms involved in anterior neural plate specification, patterning, and morphogenesis, which constitute the first stages in the formation of the forebrain. These studies have provided us with a glimpse into the molecular mechanisms that drive the development of an embryonic structure, and have resulted in the realization that cell segregation in the anterior neural plate is essential for the accurate progression of forebrain morphogenesis. This review summarizes the latest advances in our understanding of mechanisms of cell segregation during forebrain development, with and emphasis on the impact of this process on the morphogenesis of one of the anterior neural plate derivatives, the eyes.My research is funded by a National Project Grant of the Spanish Government (BFU2011-24701) and the EU (PCIG11-GA-2012-321788), and by an Institutional Grant from the Fundación Ramón Areces to the Centro de Biología Molecular Severo OchoaWe acknowledge support by the CSIC Open Access Publication Initiative through its Unit of Information Resources for Research (URICI)Peer Reviewe
Dynamic Tissue Rearrangements during Vertebrate Eye Morphogenesis: Insights from Fish Models
No full textOver the last thirty years, fish models, such as the zebrafish and medaka, have become essential to pursue developmental studies and model human disease. Community efforts have led to the generation of wide collections of mutants, a complete sequence of their genomes, and the development of sophisticated genetic tools, enabling the manipulation of gene activity and labelling and tracking of specific groups of cells during embryonic development. When combined with the accessibility and optical clarity of fish embryos, these approaches have made of them an unbeatable model to monitor developmental processes in vivo and in real time. Over the last few years, live-imaging studies in fish have provided fascinating insights into tissue morphogenesis and organogenesis. This review will illustrate the advantages of fish models to pursue morphogenetic studies by highlighting the findings that, in the last decade, have transformed our understanding of eye morphogenesis
Florencia Garramuño traduz Graciliano Ramos
No full textThe text bellow presents an essay by Florencia Garramuño, which introduces her own translation of Spanish of the novel Vidas secas, by Graciliano Ramos, published in 2001, and seeks to contextualize briefly the essay within the cultural exchanges between Brazil and Argentina. After the presentation follows the Brazilian version of "El regionalismo equívoco de Vidas secas" in which the author proposes a reassessment of the relations between the concepts of modernism, regionalism and realism within the context of Brazilian culture during the first half of the twentieth century. Director of the Brazilian culture program at San Andrés University in Buenos Aires, Florencia Garramuño is the author of Modernidades primitivas: Tango, samba e nação (Editora UFMG, 2009) and La experiencia opaca. Literatura y desencanto (FCE, 2009). Translated Gran sertón: veredas by Guimarães Rosa (with Gonzalo Aguilar), En libertad by Silviano Santiago, among others, and organized the Spanish version of Los sertones by Euclides da Cunha for Fondo de Cultura Económica.O texto abaixo apresenta o ensaio de Florencia Garramuño, que introduz sua própria tradução espanhola de Vidas secas, de Graciliano Ramos, lançada em 2001, e procura contextualizá-lo brevemente no âmbito das trocas culturais entre Argentina e Brasil.

Florencia Grimaldi: Latin America's Soprano Heroine
No full textabstract: Although opera is the last musical genre one typically associates with Latin America, Mexican composer Daniel Catán (1949-2011) found surprising success across the United States and overseas with his opera Florencia en el Amazonas (1996). Catán blends colorful music with literary elements to create a representation of Latin American culture through language, drama, scenery, and music. Among these elements is realism mágico (magical realism), a significant characteristic of Latin American literature. Indeed, the plot of the opera is influenced by Gabriel García Márquez's novel, El amor en los tiempos del cólera (Love in the Time of Cholera, 1985), as well as the poem "Mariposa de obsidiana" (Obsidian Butterfly, 1951) and the short story "La hija de Rappaccini" (Rappaccini's Daughter, 1953), both by Octavio Paz. To create his protagonist in the opera, Florencia Grimaldi, Catán combines the dramatic qualities of several European soprano heroines. This figure's character development is conveyed largely through her Act I, Scene 2, aria, "Florencia Grimaldi," and her Act II, Scene 17, aria, "Escúchame." An overview of the opera places these two arias into context, and their musical content and text-setting are closely examined in relation to the character of Florencia. Finally, how Daniel Catán creates a soprano heroine from the Latin American perspective is discussed.Dissertation/ThesisD.M.A. Music 201

Juan Rodolfo Wilcock e il giornale. Critica di costume e foglietti di viaggio nel "Mondo" di Mario Pannunzio
No full textJuan Rodolfo Wilcock e il giornale. Critica di costume e foglietti di viaggio nel “Mondo” di Mario Pannunzio
Between 1958 and 1966, Juan Rodolfo Wilcock wrote several pieces for the Italian journal “Il Mondo”, some of them as an insightful observer of the Italian (and European) way of life. This corpus of writings hitherto unexplored is, as we suggest, one of the multiple expressions of Wilcock’s narrative. The aim of this paper is to highlight the literary devices and the rhetoric figures used by the author while describing different aspects of Italian morals and society, and therefore to display and comment on the main characteristics of what we call Wilcock’s “journalistic poetics”
Brain regionalization: Of signaling centers and boundaries
No full textOur knowledge of the general mechanisms controlling the formation of the vertebrate central nervous system has advanced tremendously in the last decade. Here, we discuss the impact of the combined use of cell manipulation, in vivo imaging and genetics in the zebrafish on recent progress in understanding how signaling processes progressively control regionalization of the central nervous system. We highlight the unresolved issues and speculate upon the fundamental role the zebrafish will continue having in answering them. (c) 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Develop Neurobiol 72: 218233, 201
