Phraseology in Francisco de Quevedo´s cuento de cuentos

Desde el punto de vista lingüístico, el discurso de Cuento de cuentos parece estar concebido como un juego de ingenio consistente en un abigarrado ensamblaje o extensa y casi ininterrumpida sarta de locuciones. Es seguramente la obra literaria española que mayor número de locuciones alberga en tan poco espacio. En nuestro estudio intentamos identificar las locuciones, comentando algunas características (variación, vigencia, etc.), y clasificarlas categorialmente.From a linguistic point of view, the narrative in Cuento de cuentos may be conceived as a puzzle made out of intricately assembled phraseology forming a lengthy, almost unending string. Cuento de cuentos is possibly the Spanish literary work containing a bigger amount of phraseology in the smallest space. Our study aims at identifying the phraseology in this work, discussing some of its characteristics (variation, currency, etc.), and categorizing it.peerReviewe

Métrica y retórica (juego de palabras) en la poesía española contemporánea

El presente estudio Métrica y retórica (juego de palabras) en la poesía española contemporánea es un intento de conciliar la métrica (ritmo, rima, etc.) y la retórica. Para ello, se selecciona un conjunto de figuras retóricas que cumplen efectos rítmicos en el discurso poético versificado: el calambur, la paronomasia, el eco y la aliteración. El último capítulo se dedica al fenómeno fónico-rítmico del encabalgamiento cuando se emplea con una finalidad lúdica, por lo que funciona como un atípico juego de palabras. El corpus de ejemplos está compuesto por textos de la poesía española contemporánea

Sports and extreme social exclusion. Homeless people case

Aunque el estudio de las potencialidades del deporte en la lucha contra la exclusión social ha sido un tema de análisis durante mucho tiempo, poco se ha aplicado al caso de la exclusión social extrema. El objetivo de este artículo es presentar algunas de dichas potencialidades adaptadas al caso de las personas sin hogar. Para ello, comenzamos presentando y discutiendo algunas aportaciones teóricas, destacando la necesaria atención en la transformación de valores hábitos e identidades. Posteriormente, realizamos algunas apreciaciones acerca de la aplicación de este esquema teórico al ámbito del sinhogarismo, donde se hace necesaria la diferenciación entre intervenciones sociales duras y blandas. Finalmente, el análisis etnográfico del proyecto de Fútbol-calle de la Fundación RAIS nos sirve para analizar algunas de las potencialidades transformadoras del deporte como herramienta para la intervención social con personas sin hogar. Entre otras, mencionamos para este caso los beneficios implícitos de la vertiente lúdica de esta intervención social, la apertura de nuevos espacios comunicativos, la relajación de los roles entre interventores e intervenidos y la reversión de los estigmas sociales asociados.Although the study of the potentialities of sports in the struggle against social exclusion has long been a topic of analysis, little has been applied within the scope of the extreme social exclusion. The aim of this paper is to present some of such potentialities, adapted to the case of the homeless. To do this, we begin by presenting and discussing some theoretical contributions, highlighting the necessary attention to the transformation of values, habits and identities. Subsequently, we make some assessments of the application of this theoretical framework to the scope of homelessness, an area where it is necessary to differentiate between soft and hard social interventions. Finally, the ethnographic analysis of the project “Street Football”, of the RAIS Foundation, serves us to analyze some of the transformative potential of sports as a tool of social intervention with the homeless. In this case, we mention, among others, the potential benefits implicit in the playful side of this kind of social intervention, the opening up of new spaces of communication, the relaxation of the roles between interveners and intervened and the reversion of the social stigma associated with it

Relationships between Sprint Ability and Endurance Capacity in Soccer Referees

[EN] The aim of this study was to analyze the association between sprint ability and endurance capacity in soccer referees. Twenty-three Spanish officials participated in this study. Each referee undertook, in this order, a 40 m linear straight sprinting test (40 m Sprint) and the Yo–Yo intermittent recovery level 1 test (YYIR1) interspersed with a 8 min of self-administered rest. The results in the 40m Sprint test showed that the time spent by referees was 5.56 0.27 s and achieved a maximum velocity of 31.46 2.85 km h1. Furthermore, during the YYIR1 the referees covered 1213.91 432.26 m. The distance covered at YYIR1 was moderately correlated to the velocity achieved in the 40 m Sprint test (r = 0.404, p < 0.05). These results suggest that the ability to reach high speeds is a limiting factor in YYIR1 performance.S

The Impact of an Authentic Sports Leadership Program for Coach

[EN] Purpose: This paper studies the effects of authentic sports leadership training on coaches’ self-perception of their own authentic leadership, perceived justice, competence, overall self-efficacy, and collective efficacy. Additionally, players’ perceptions of their coaches with respect to their authentic leadership, perceived justice, competence, collective efficacy, satisfaction with the coach, and support for basic psychological needs were analyzed. Design: Twenty-five football and handball coaches were randomly assigned to two groups. Fifteen coaches made up the experimental group that carried out the training leadership program, while 10 coachesmade up the control group, carrying out no training whatsoever. A total of 248 football and handball players participated in this study; 136 were led by coaches who participated in the training program, and 112 by coaches who did not participate in the program. Results: The results of this study indicate that coaches’ self-perception is positively influenced after having received training in the variables of authentic leadership, perceived justice, competence, overall self-efficacy, and collective efficacy. Players whose coaches were part of the program perceive them as being more competent as coaches. Conclusions: The effects of an authentic sports leadership training program are effective for coaches and players alike.S
