    THE VOICED PUZZLE OF THE AMERICAS:: A REVIEW OF PLURIVOZES AMERICANAS / AMERICAN PLURAL VOICES / PLURIVOCES AMERICANAS

    Get PDF
    Plurivozes Americanas / American Plural Voices / Plurivoces Americanas is a collection of poems and also little pieces of prose in which different ways of perceiving the realities of the American continent are given a voice. All these varied perspectives converge in an academic effort that, on the one hand, reminds us once again about the importance of translation in our everyday more globalized world and, on the other hand, opens a path of communication between the three predominant languages of the Americas. That is precisely why the decisive threefold task of translation undertaken in the project is placed at the very heart of the collection. Translation is actually what makes the book come to existence; it is what makes us understand all the stories and, in a sense, what makes us hear their voices. &nbsp

    Tracing Emmett Till’s Legacy from Black Lives Matter back to the Civil Rights Movement

    Get PDF
    This paper explores the legacy of the Emmett Till case as one of the core elements which binds together the Civil Rights Movement and the current Black Lives Matter in the US. Donald Trump’s inauguration in January 2017 has magnified the escalating racial tension of recent years and has, at the same time, fueled several forms of social activism across the United States. Acting as the catalyst for Black Lives Matter, the assassination of seventeen-year-old Trayvon Martin in 2012 stirred the race question in the country as the Till lynching had similarly done fifty seven years before. At the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement, the complex relations between race, class, and gender within the South helped to set the atmosphere for one of the starkest assassinations in US history. Till’s infamous murder soon gave rise to an empowering narrative among the African American community that not only contributed to putting an end to the voracious rule of Jim Crow in the US South but that, with the passage of time, has also become a banner of justice in the current fight against racism, as it seems that recent violent events resuscitate the latent white supremacist ghosts of one of the world’s most powerful nations.The research for this article was funded by the project USRACEBODY, PGC2018-095687-B-I00, AEI/ERDF, EU.

    The ring compression test: Analysis of dimensions and canonical geometry

    Get PDF
    The compression ring test is universally accepted as a perfectly valid method by which determine simply and reliably the adhesion friction factor in a plastic deformation process. Its methodology is based on the application of geometric changes as both the reduction in thickness as the decrease in bore inner diameter in the strained ring itself. In this paper the performance of that test is the basis for establishing the coefficient of friction on a forging process so that, given this, its application to Upper Bound Theorem (UBT) by model Triangular Rigid Zones (TRZ), enable the establishment an intercomparison with empirical force, reaching a cuasivalidation of this Theorem in a certain range.Universidad de Málaga.

    Aspectos de cultura y comunicación en el protocolo gastronómico y las prácticas de alimentación en diferentes etapas históricas

    La organización social humana a evolucionado desde formas rituales arcaicas –que fueron asentando jerarquías y procedimientos comportamentales- hasta lo que hoy denominamos genéricamente protocolo. Igualmente, las diversas culturas –determinadas por cuestiones geográficas, climáticas, organizacionales, etc.- fueron desarrollando hábitos alimenticios y fundando gastronomías que, a su vez, las caracterizaban también. El cruce de ambas cuestiones -protocolo y gastronomía- ha venido siendo un factor comunicacional de primer orden en lo que supone una determinada consideración de las culturas y las sociedades.The social human organization has evolved from ritual archaic forms -that produced hierarchies and behaviour procedures- up to what we today generically call protocol.

    Induction, minimization and collection for Δ n+1 (T)–formulas

    Get PDF
    For a theory T, we study relationships among IΔ n +1 (T), LΔ n+1 (T) and B * Δ n+1 (T). These theories are obtained restricting the schemes of induction, minimization and (a version of) collection to Δ n+1 (T) formulas. We obtain conditions on T (T is an extension of B * Δ n+1 (T) or Δ n+1 (T) is closed (in T) under bounded quantification) under which IΔ n+1 (T) and LΔ n+1 (T) are equivalent. These conditions depend on Th Πn +2 (T), the Π n+2 –consequences of T. The first condition is connected with descriptions of Th Πn +2 (T) as IΣ n plus a class of nondecreasing total Π n –functions, and the second one is related with the equivalence between Δ n+1 (T)–formulas and bounded formulas (of a language extending the language of Arithmetic). This last property is closely tied to a general version of a well known theorem of R. Parikh. Using what we call Π n –envelopes we give uniform descriptions of the previous classes of nondecreasing total Π n –functions. Π n –envelopes are a generalization of envelopes (see [10]) and are closely related to indicators (see [12]). Finally, we study the hierarchy of theories IΔ n+1 (IΣ m ), m≥n, and prove a hierarchy theorem.Ministerio de Educación y Cultura DGES PB96-134
