The Sevillian villancico during the seventeenth century (1621-1700)

From the analysis of 316 copies of Sevillian villancicos from the seventeenth century (1621-1700) we can witness a successful and consolidated publishing genre. Its strong and repeated identity features will help us to describe the context of creation and the printed diffusion. Thereby, the public cover they adopted is the formulation and the plastic result of a procedure of that period that still needs to be studied. We will analyze the places and the festivities celebrated, the main poets and some formal aspects of particular interest. Essentially, the goal of this paper is to introduce a poetic product, key in the birth of an esthetic for the Low Baroque.A partir del análisis de 316 ejemplares de villancicos sevillanos del siglo XVII (1621-1700) atestiguamos una forma editorial de gran éxito y consolidación, con unos rasgos de identidad muy marcados y reiterados que nos servirán para incidir en su contexto de creación y difusión impresa. Así, la carta de presentación al público que escogieron es el resultado enunciativo y plástico de un modo de proceder en la época sobre el que aún quedan muchas incógnitas que despejar. Se analizarán los lugares y motivos de celebración, sus principales cultivadores y algunos aspectos formales de especial relevancia. El objetivo es, en esencia, presentar un producto poético clave en la gestación de una estética propia del Bajo Barroco

Francisco de Godoy: una carrera autobiografiada

The career of this author, “natural de Málaga y vezino de Sevilla,” is marked by works that collect autobiographic doubtful information. His imprisonment, for instance, makes him an author with an astonishing capacity to transform his life into a merchandising item. It also reveals a clear authorial consciousness that finally crystallized in a non-nata Primera Parte de las obras de don Francisco de GodoyLa carrera de este autor "natural de Málaga y vezino de Sevilla" está jalonada de obras que recogen datos autobiográficos de dudosa veracidad. Su encarcelamiento, por ejemplo, lo convierte en un autor con una asombrosa capacidad para transformar su vida en un elemento de mercadotecnia, además de ofrecer una clara consciencia autorial que cristalizó en una non-nata Primera parte de las obras de don Francisco de Godoy

Of Gozques, Anaxandros and Griguiescos: Francisco Pérez de Amaya Portrayed By Lope de Vega

Forma parte del Monográfico “Formado de varias partes un cuerpo, quise que le sirviese de alma mi buen deseo”: los “fragmenta” de La Filomena (1621). Coordinadores Florencia Calvo y Antonio Sánchez Jiménez[Resumen] Lo que pretendemos en estas páginas es ahondar en las estrategias retóricas que articuló Lope para describir la condición de Francisco Pérez de Amaya, jurista antequerano, en las epístolas “primera” y “octava” de La Filomena; el modo en que lo atacó recurriendo a metáforas y símiles que se han pasado por alto en los estudios relacionados. Al analizar tales imágenes, observaremos el desplazamiento profesional y el vejamen personal que Lope le encaja en este peculiar retrato, y saldrán a flote referencias cruzadas y otros aspectos interesantes sobre el imaginario de nuestro poeta y su posicionamiento frente a los cultos.[Abstract] Throughout theses pages we will intend to examine the rhetorical strategies displayed by Lope when describing Francisco Pérez de Amaya, a lawyer from Antequera, in the first and eighth epistles included in La Filomena. We will examine, therefore, the way in which the poet attacked him drawing on metaphores and similes that, up to now, have been overlooked in specialised and related papers. Once analyzed those images, we will discover the peculiar portrait made by Lope, full of professional displacements and personal satires. Together with it, some cross-references and interesting aspects on our poet’s imaginary will arise, as well as his stance against the “cultos”.Fonds National Suisse de la Recherche Scientifique; IZSAZ1_17335

El Parnaso de la Vega: una breve mirada a las galerías de ingenios del Fénix

Lope nos ha dado muchas y muy variopintas galerías de ingenios. Las creó para héroes o capitanes ilustres en el libro tercero de la Arcadia o para los santos españoles en el canto décimo del Isidro. Pero, ante todo, las creó para ensalzar a los poetas más eminentes, desde la Grecia y Roma clásicas hasta la corte de Felipe IV. Lo que nos proponemos en estas páginas es realizar un censo y cotejo de las galerías diseminadas en la producción de Lope de Vega para, a continuación, establecer un Par-naso simbólico con los nombres más recurrentes en ellas. Se trata, en definitiva, de indagar en su canon personal desde una renovada perspectiva

Polylactic acid scaffolds obtained by 3D printing and modified by oxygen plasma

The purpose of tissue engineering is to repair, replace, and regenerate tissues and organs. For this aim, materials supports, as polylactic acid (PLA) are used. PLA is a thermoplastic polymer that presents biodegradability, biocompatibility and good processability. PLA scaffolds can accurately constructed by 3D printing. Then, the objectives of this work were to modify the hydrophobic surface of PLA scaffolds using oxygen plasma and to study the cell viability and proliferation. The characterization was done by AFM, contact angle, FTIR and studies of proliferation and cell viability. Results showed that the material acquired hydrophilic properties by the presence of oxygen reactive species and by contact angle decrease. It was also observed an increase in the surface roughness. We can conclude that although the surface modifications were effective and the PLA scaffolds were not cytotoxic, there were no improvements in the proliferation process with the studied osteo-1 lineage cells.

Diet inclusion of devil fish (Plecostomus spp.) silage and its impacts on ruminal fermentation and growth performance of growing lambs in hot regions of Mexico

The aim of this study was to evaluate the inclusion of devil fish (Plecostomus spp.—DF) silage in Criollo× Blackbelly lamb diets in hot region of Guerrero state of Mexico. Rumen fermentation including pH, volatile fatty acids (VFA) and ammonia-N (NH3-N) and productive variables including feed intake (FI), average daily gain (ADG), and feed conversion were determined. Twenty lambs with 18±1.2 kg body weight in a completely randomized design were fed a total mixed ration (TMR) of concentrate (based on soybean meal, whole oat hay, ground corn cob, vitamins-minerals supplement) with DF silage at 0 % (DF0), 9 % (DF9), 18 % (DF18), and 27 % (DF27) of the TMR for 75 days. The ruminal pH showed no difference (P>0.05) between treatments: ranging between 6.21 and 6.36. Propionic acid molar proportions showed an irregular pattern between experimental groups, which only differed (P0.05) among treatments. The daily FI was increased (P0.05) among them. The ADG showed only difference (cubic effect, P=0.02) between DF9 and DF18. The highest feed conversion was observed (cubic effect, P<0.01) with DF18, with a value of 4.7 kg of feed to gain 1 kg of body weight. It could be concluded that the inclusion of up to 18 % of DF silage in the TMR of growing lamb diets, in hot regions of Mexico, may improve productive performance a

Intragastric gastric band migration: erosion: an analysis of multicenter experience on 177 patients

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) has proven to be a safe and effective surgical treatment for morbid obesity. It can be a simple, fast, reversible, anatomy-preserving procedure. Despite these advantages, its long-term efficacy came into question by the occurrence of complications such as intragastric band migration. Consistent information regarding this complication is still lacking. Treatment for migration is still being debated as well. Most of the inconsistencies of these data stem from the very low number of patients reported in single-center experiences or case reports. Lack of multicenter experience is evident. The aim of this study was to perform a retrospective analysis of data on intragastric migration in a large multicenter cohort of patients who underwent LAGB. METHODS: A retrospective multicenter study on LAGB patients was performed. Data had been entered into a prospective database of the Italian Group for LapBand(®) (GILB) since January 1997. Pars flaccida and perigastric positioning were considered along with different kinds of gastric bands by the same manufacturer. Time of diagnosis, mean body mass index (BMI), presentation symptoms, and conservative and surgical therapy of intragastric migration were considered. RESULTS: From January 1997 to December 2009, a total of 6,839 patients underwent LAGB and their data were recorded [5,660 females, 1,179 males; mean age 38.5 ± 18.2 years (range 21-62 years); mean BMI = 46.7 ± 7.7 kg/m(2) (range 37.3-68.3); excess weight (EW) 61.8 ± 25.4 kg (range 36-130); %EW 91.1 ± 32.4 % (range 21-112 %)]. A total of 177 of 6,839 (2.5 %) intragastric erosions were observed. According to the postoperative time of follow-up, the diagnosis of intragastric migration was made in 74 (41.8 %), 14 (7.9 %), 38 (21.4 %), 40 (22.6 %), 6 (3.4 %), and 4 (2.2 %) banded patients at 6-12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72 months after banding, respectively. Most of intragastric band migration during the first 2 years occurred in bands with no or a few milliliters of filling. In patients with late erosion, the bands were adjusted several times; no band was overfilled but one was filled to the maximum or submaximum with a maximum of two adjustments. Erosions diagnosed during the first 24 months were related to the experience of the surgical staff, while late erosions were not. CONCLUSIONS: Intragastric band migration or band erosion is a rare, disturbing, and usually not life-threatening complication of gastric banding. Its pathogenesis is probably linked to different mechanisms in early (technical failure in retrogastric passage) or late (band management) presentation. It is usually asymptomatic and there is no pathognomonic presentation. A wide range of therapeutic options are available, from simple endoscopic or laparoscopic removal to early or late band replacement or other bariatric procedure. More experience and more studies are needed to lower its presentation rate and definitively clarify its pathogenesis to address the right therapeutic option
