Broschiert. Condition: New. 15x23 cm, Teoría y Crítica de la Cultura y Literatura, 45. 253p., Sprache: Spanisch, NUEVO / NEU / NEW. Rústica. Buen estado. Efectos de sinergia consigue la interacción entre proyectos de investigación verdaderamente trans e interdisciplinarios y desarrolla perspectivas para el uso de efectos de sinergia en la transmisión de competencias ling ísticas, culturales y literarias en el dominio de las lenguas, culturas y literaturas latinoamericanas. La introducción programática de Alfonso de Toro y las reflexiones de Karl Kohut sobre un futuro Manual de Latinoamericanística que ofrezca unos conocimientos básicos comunes a todas estas disciplinas con el fin de evitar que pierdan su contacto entre ellas me hacen confiar en que de este tomo de actas se destilará también su fundamento. Los artículos se centran en tres campos principales: destaca especialmente la subsección "Ecocrítica y medio ambiente", que une la aspiración de una organización verdaderamente transdisciplinar con un punto de partida metodológico radicalmente nuevo; otro grupo de estudios casuísticos tienen un enfoque intercultural; y el tercero se dedica a cuestiones de intermedialidad en los estudios hispanoamericanos. El ensayo de crítica cultural del poeta nacional Miguel Barnet cierra el libro con una "mirada hacia Cuba". [Sinopsis editorial] ** 10% REBAJAS DE INVIERNO * WINTERSALE! * excl.

Paperback, xiv + 230 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:47 b/w, 72 col., 3 maps b/w, 1 maps color, Language: English. ISBN 9782503604794. Summary Human agents might not be the measure of all things. Nonetheless, human bodies, and their bodily dimensions, often are, with size impacting on the ways in which we conceive of, interact with, and relate to the world around us. The scaling up or down of features ? magnification and miniaturization ? is particularly evident in the creation of anthropogenic items intended for use in religious ritual, and here sizing can be employed as a deliberate strategy to encourage shock and awe, admiration and deterrence, among spectators. Taking as its starting point the concept of 'materialities and meanings', this volume explores how human perceptions and understanding of magnified and miniaturized forms and structures are shaped and changed, both synchronically and diachronically, by our understanding of the human body and its size, and the impact that this has in our relationship with the wider world in the context of ritual practices. The chapters collected here consider a range of questions, from a discussion on the essentials of magnification or miniaturization to an exploration of the impact of such strategies on humans and their wider socio-political ramifications. Together, these chapters contribute to a unique discussion that offers new insights into 'materialities and meanings', the creation of items for ritual, and the ways in which they influence human perception and understanding.
