description: Este artículo se ocupa de la hasta ahora poco investigada vida de Bernal Díaz del Castillo en Guatemala, país donde escribe la Historia verdadera de la conquista de la Nueva España en la segunda mitad del siglo xvi. La primera parte analiza la crónica, su importancia y principales ediciones críticas. La parte central se dedica a la relación de Bernal Díaz con la historia de Guatemala. Se aborda su comportamiento como encomendero, su vínculo con los indígenas y con el régimen colonial guatemalteco. La última parte profundiza en el cronista, las circunstancias y sus motivos para escribir la crónica, y en el lugar de esta en el imaginario cultural y político de Guatemala. En una posdata se hace referencia crítica a la obra de Christian Duverger (2012) que cuestiona a Bernal Díaz como autor de la crónica.

Abstract

 This article deals with the hitherto scarcely researched life of Bernal Díaz del Castillo in Guatemala, country where he wrote the True History of the Conquest of New Spain in the second half of the 16th century. The first chapter examines the chronicle, its importance and main critical editions. The Bernal Diaz’s relationship with the history of Guatemala is addressed in the main chapter, exploring his behavior as an encomendero, his link with the indigenous people and the Guatemalan colonial regime. The last chapter delves in the chronicler, the circumstances and his motivation for writing the chronicle, as well as its place in the cultural and political imaginary of Guatemala. As a PostScript, a critical reference to the work of Christian Duverger (2012), who questions Bernal Díaz as the author of the chronicle, is presented.

description: Este artículo quiere mostrar dos cosas: la primera, exhibir la recepción de Gide en México a partir de los primeros testimonios y semblanzas del francés, algo que no se ha consignado todavía debidamente; la segunda, mostrar cómo su obra El regreso del hijo pródigo vino a ajustarse al interés de los llamados Contemporáneos por los personajes viajeros, afinidad heredada de los ateneístas mexicanos. La lectura de Gide, el significado que cada integrante de Contemporáneos concede a los diferentes viajeros, demuestra que, desde el principio, no hubo una coincidencia entre los miembros de este grupo, sino preci­samente una ruptura que se irá ampliando con el tiempo.
 Abstract
The article wants to show two things: first, display the reception of Gide in Mexico from the first accounts and portrayals of the French, something that has included not yet properly; the second is show how his work El regreso del hijo pródigo, came to conform to the interest of the so called Contemporáneos for the characters travelers, inherited affinity of the Ateneo Mexican members. The reading of Gide, meaning giving different travellers, each member of the Contemporáneos shows, from the beginning, there was not a coincidence between the members of group, but precisely a rupture that will be expanded over time.

description: El artículo trata de la representación visual de las naciones sudamericanas en tarjetas postales a fines del siglo xix y comienzos del siglo xx. En la rica investigación sobre nación y nacionalidad, los trabajos se limitan muy frecuentemente a los medios textuales. Si bien hay obras que analizan medios visuales, en cuanto a las tarjetas postales y su rol en la representación de la nación y la nacionalidad y en el proceso de la construcción de la identidad nacional, se constata una laguna que este artículo pretende contribuir a completar. Esto es esencial porque las imágenes transmitidas en tarjetas postales tenían una circula­ción muy grande: transnacional, transcultural y transclasista. En el artículo se distinguen, analizan e interpretan cinco tipos de motivos que (re)presentan a las naciones sudamericanas en tarjetas postales y ensaya una interpretación de los mismos.
Abstract
The article deals with the visual representation of South American nations in post­cards in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Despite research being broad on nation and nationality, quite often these works are limited to textual media. And although some works do analyze visual media, there is a research gap as far as postcards and their role in the representation of nation and nationality and in the process of the construction of national identity are concerned. The article aims at closing this gap, a task which is essential because the images transmitted in the form of postcards circulated very widely: transnationally, trans­culturally, and overcoming class limits. Five groups of motives that (re-)present the South American nations in postcards are to be distinguished, examined and interpreted in this article.

description: El objetivo de este artículo es analizar el problema del hipnotismo en la ciencia y la cultura de Buenos Aires durante el último cuarto del siglo xix. Desde el momento en que la medicina argentina comenzó a interesarse teórica y prácticamente por la hipnosis, se vio enfrentada a una multiplicidad de actores (espiritistas, ilusionistas, curanderos) que también hacían uso, con fines divergentes, de ese instrumento. En este texto se coloca el énfasis en la descripción de las tensiones y disputas sostenidas entre los médicos y sus competidores. Además de rastrear los profesionales que aportaron al estudio de la nueva terapia, se señalan las estrategias llevadas a cabo por los representantes de la ciencia oficial para acabar con otro tipo de utilizaciones del sonambulismo artificial.
 Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the topic of hypnotism in the science and the culture of Buenos Aires during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. When Argentine medicine became conceptually and practically interested in hypnosis it encoun­tered a multiplicity of actors (spirititsts, illusionists, quacks) that also used it with different aims. This text intends to describe the tensions and disputes sustained between physi­cians and their competitors. In addition to pointing out which were the professionals that contributed to the study of the new therapy, this paper identifies the strategies carried out by representatives of the official science in order to finish with other uses of artificial somnambulism

"Ni una menos": Contextualizar la violencia de género del teatro del siglo XVII en la escena española contemporánea

Subjects: subject: Seventeenth century
subject: Theater
subject: Sixteenth century
subject: Spanish literature--Classical period

description: This paper focuses on female subjectivity in order to expand on how disempowered women protagonists in the comedia recover thier sense of agency under new contemporary readings. Specifically, since the passing of domestic violence legislation in 2004, a new wave of comedia adaptations have resorted to the symbolic capital of early modern classics to raise awareness of women's misrepresentation and gender violence. I evaluate this historical revisionism as a socio-cultural phenomenon that is increasingly entrenched in contemporary Spanish theater.

La poética de Severo Sarduy: neobarroco de la inmanencia
Creators: name: Férez Mora, Pedro Antonio
Publisher: name: Ibero-Amerikanisches Institut (Berlin)
Year: 2015
Subjects: Severo Sarduy; Neobarroco; Trascendencia; Inmanencia; Poesía latinoamericana: Neobaroque, Transcendence; Immanence; Latin American poetry

description: El presente estudio tiene como objetivo establecer el lugar que los versos de Severo Sarduy ocupan en el contexto de la poesía latinoamericana. El carácter rizomático y la obsesión por lo significante de sus versos lo conectan con claridad con la tradición neobarroca, excepto en un ámbito: su rechazo del impulso trascendente. Si, siguiendo la estela de José Lezama Lima, la poesía neobarroca latinoamericana más actual tiende a levantar sistemas trascendentes, la sarduyana, en cambio, apunta hacia la inmanencia como modo de orquestar una onto-epistemología basada en el paroxismo, la revolu­ción-placer y el presente.
Abstract
This study aims to establish the place of Severo Sarduy’s poetry within the context of Latin American letters. The rhizomatic nature and the obsession with signifiers permeating his poetry, connect him with the Neobaroque tradition except for in one big area: his rejec­tion of transcendence. Whereas contemporary Neobaroque poetry, following the imprint of José Lezama Lima, tends to put up transcendent systems, Sarduy’s, in contrast, claims immanence as a way to orchestrate an onto-epistemology based on present, paroxysm, and the pair pleasure-revolution.

description: Este ensayo examina la escena narcisista en dos obras de teatro de Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, leyéndolos como dispositivos de “contra-proyección” que cuestionan y reorientan la mirada del público (y de los lectores). Se interesa en la creación de un público “advertido” por la configuración narcisista de las trampas especulares de la representación, y llevado por la misma a “ver” los procesos de fijación de la alteridad, sexual y/o colonial.
Abstract
This essay examines the narcissistic in two plays by Sor Juna Inés de la Cruz, reading them as “counter-projection devices” that question and reorient the public’s (and readers’) gaze. It is interested in the creation of a public “advised” by the narcissistic configuration to avoid the specular traps of representation, and led to “see” the processes that fix sexual and/or colonial alterity.

description: Este artículo analiza la constitución, la organización y el conjunto de acciones emprendidas por el Frente Negro en la Argentina durante la década de 1930. Este movimiento, integrado por nacionalsocialistas desencantados con el Tercer Reich, conformó el primer grupo organizado de habla alemana que combatiría al régimen de Hitler, a quien acusaban de traicionar los ideales primigenios del nacionalsocialismo al posicionarse a favor del gran capital. El trabajo presta especial atención a las relaciones que se establecieron entre sus integrantes y el variopinto grupo de alemanes, tanto exiliados como previamente residentes en la Argentina, que comenzaban a conformar un incipiente movimiento local germanoparlante de oposición al nacionalsocialismo.
Abstract
This article analyzes the foundation and organization of the Black Front movement in Argentina in the 1930’s, as well as its actions. This movement, made up of disenchanted National Socialists, became the first organized German-speaking group to fight Hitler’s regime. It accused the Führer of betraying the original ideals of National Socialism in favor of big capital. The article pays special attention to the relations between movement members and the assorted group of Germans, both exiles and previous residents of Argentina, who were starting to build a budding German-speaking local movement of opposition to National Socialism.

description: En este trabajo se estudian las maneras en que diferentes diarios colombianos construyen discursivamente, en sus versiones online, determinados participantes y procesos, en una temporalidad y espacialidad específica de carácter coyuntural. El marco teórico y metodológico se inscribe en los postulados de la Lingüística Crítica, atendiendo a dos ideas claves de esta escuela, la clasificación y los paradigmas de disputa. El artículo muestra cómo la discusión en torno del tópico La Macarena comienza con la denominación “fosa” y termina en la denominación “cementerio”, dejando entrever la disputa ideológica y las trasformaciones discursivas que activan mecanismos de silenciamiento en la construcción y clasificación discursiva del mundo social.

Abstract
This paper analyzes the ways in which various Colombian online newspapers construct discursively certain participants and processes in a conjunctural and specific temporality and spatiality. The theoretical and methodological framework is part of the postulates of Critical Linguistics, specially two key ideas of these theories: classification and paradigms of dispute. The paper shows how the discussion of topical La Macarena begins with the sign “fosa” and ends with the sign “cementerio”, suggesting the ideological dispute and discursive transformations that trigger silencing mechanisms in discursive construction and classification of the social world.

description: En este artículo analizamos las actitudes con respecto al vino de uva que mostraron tanto los conquistadores como los conquistados. El vino se vinculó a los vencedores y la chicha –fermento de maíz–, a los vencidos. Sin embargo, tanto el vino como el trigo y el aceite de oliva se convirtieron en artículos absolutamente prohibitivos para los colonos, por lo que tuvieron que transformar aceleradamente su dieta para poder sobrevivir. En breve plazo, el maíz, la yuca y las batatas se convirtieron, junto a la carne, en la base de la alimentación hispana. Lo realmente sorprendente es que aceptaran la mayor parte de la cultura gastronómica indígena, excepto la chicha –el llamado vino indígena–. Y ello por las connotaciones sociales, culturales y hasta rituales que el vino tenía, vinculado inalienablemente a la cultura europea y a la cristiandad.

Abstract

In this paper we analyze the attitudes towards grape wine showed both by the conquerors and the conquered. Wine was linked to winners and chichi –corn ferment–, linked to the vanquished. However, both the wine and wheat and olive oil became absolutely prohibitive items for settlers so they had to rapidly transform their diet to survive. Soon, corn, cassava and yams became, along with meat, the base of the Hispanic food. What is really surprising is that most of the Indian food culture was accepted, except chichi wine, the so- called indigenous wine. This is for the social, cultural and even ritual connotations that the wine had, inalienably linked to European culture and Christianity.

Hacia una configuración de lugares sin territorios en The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao

description: A partir de la distinción de Glissant entre territorio y lugar se propone leer la novela de Junot Díaz, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao (2007) como una ficcionalización de la idea de lugar. Los espacios resultan ámbitos donde se descodifican los referentes claves que “fijan” los territorios. Dichos ámbitos implicarán un proceso de desenraizamiento de las categorías de identidad. Sin embargo, ello no entraña sus anulaciones absolutas. Los lugares responden a una práctica antropofágica en la que los diversos territorios (geográficos, raciales, económicos, lingüísticos, sexuales, temporales y estéticos) persisten, pero dislocados bajo una permanente tensión irresuelta. Tal fenómeno apuntaría a una nueva forma de antropofagia cultural acéntrica desde el loser. El loser sería aquel personaje expulsado de la lógica de la ganancia capitalista cuyos reciclajes simbólico-políticos no pretenden erigir territorios o reordenamientos binarios, sino hacerlos partícipes de los devenires de sus propios desarraigos.

Abstract

Based on the distinction proposed by Glissant between territory and place, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao proposes a fictionalization of the idea of place. The places become are as where the references that “set” territories are decoded and the process of rootlessness of identity categories occurs. However, the categories are not completely annulled. Places respond to an anthropophagic practice in which different territories (geographical, racial, economic, linguistic, sexual, temporal and aesthetic) persist, but recycled under a permanent unresolved tension. Such a phenomenon articulates a new form of cultural centerless anthropophagy in the loser character. Oscar is a loser that has been expelled from the logic of the capitalist profit. His symbolic-political recycling does not pretend to erect new territories or binaries rearrangements, but to transform through rootlessness his old territories into the new places.

Migratory Dialectics and Border Semiosis in Ana Castillo’s Chicana Novel So Far from God
Creators: name: Bertonazzi, Judy
Publisher: name: Humanities Commons
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Aesthetics
subject: American literature
subject: Poetics
subject: Semiotics

description: My paper argues for a shift in our theoretical focus on time in narrative dialectics and a post-Barthesian semiotic model for critical interpretations of Latino/a/x border narratives. Currently, we know that border narratives reveal the underlying patterns of literary communicative acts of difference (i.e., oral and literary ambiguity, high contextuality, and incommensurability) and how these acts of difference are aesthetically arranged for border texts. I claim that these acts of expressing socio-linguistic realities can be made explicit and aesthetically felt when reading border literature. Most scholarship on U.S. multi-ethnic novels, including Latino/a/x novels, has performed rhetorical analyses of the relations and incongruities between Western and non-Western narrative forms. This is evident in Ramón Saldívar’s 1990 narrative theory of a “dialectics of difference.” His theory of Chicano narrativity provides the basis for the development of a critical method for determining the intersecting referential codes used to express border narrative literary elements. A migratory dialectic theory and border semiosis theory will establish the macro- and micro- structures of border narrative difference for further research of border narratives. In this paper, I will examine Castillo’s novel as an example of a border narrative that creates the aesthetic rendering of border thinking. Border thinking is invoked in So Far from God through linguistic heterogeneity, multiple referential codes in dialectical convergences, and dialectic practices needed for ideologically transformed characters and ultimately for the novel’s readers.

description: Die Universität Augsburg hat momentan weder eine Open-Access-Strategie noch einen Publikationsfonds. Die wachsende Bedeutung von Open Access in Wissenschaft, Forschung und Bildung machte jedoch bereits seit längerer Zeit deutlich, dass wesentliche aktuelle Bedarfe und Erwartungen der Wissenschaftler*innen, aber auch der Studierenden, durch das bisherige Angebot der Universitätsbibliothek zum elektronischen Publizieren nicht mehr hinreichend gedeckt wurden.
 Innerhalb dieser Rahmenbedingungen wurde daher 2018 in der Universitätsbibliothek ein breiteres, zielgruppenspezifisches Dienstleistungs- und Vermittlungskonzept entwickelt, das sich auf den "grünen Weg" (Selbst-Archivierung) und auf die administrative Unterstützung konzentriert. Seitdem werden die Dienstleistungen im Bereich Open Access Schritt für Schritt ausgearbeitet und umgesetzt.
 Zum einen gibt es nun die Möglichkeit, Publikationslisten automatisiert aus OPUS zu extrahieren und anhand verschiedener Zitationsstile auf den Webseiten der Universität darzustellen. Zum anderen bietet die Universitätsbibliothek einen Zweitveröffentlichungsservice an. In diesem Projekt werden die rechtlichen Grundlagen für eine Zweitveröffentlichung von bereits erschienen Publikationen der Autor*innen in OPUS geprüft. Aus der Kombination beider Dienstleistungen ergeben sich für die Wissenschaftler*innen synergetische Effekte, die die Sichtbarkeit und Verfügbarkeit der Publikationen stark erhöhen. Gleichzeitig wird die Publikationsunterstützung für Promovierende durch die Veröffentlichung von Dissertationen in OPUS weitergeführt. Das Konzept wird abgerundet durch diverse Initiativen im Bereich der Öffentlichkeitsarbeit. Durch Informationskampagnen, grafisch ansprechende Open-Access-Informationsmaterialien und individualisierte Beratung werden alle Interessent*innen jetzt auf ihrem persönlichen Weg zur Open-Access-Transformation begleitet.
 In diesem Vortrag wird der Weg der Universitätsbibliothek Augsburg vom Open-Access-Konzept zur Umsetzung vorgestellt. Jetzige und zukünftige Dienstleistungen werden kurz umrissen. Der Fokus liegt darauf Impulse und Anregungen zu geben, wie auch Institutionen mit begrenzten finanziellen Ressourcen Open Access unterstützen und vorantreiben können.

description: The mechanism triggering the radio emission in Radio-Quiet (RQ) Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), found to be a relevant component of the faint radio population  in deep fields,  is hotly debated.  Most RQ AGNs are unresolved or barely resolved at a few arcsec scale, comparable to the host galaxy size. RQ AGNs have also been found to share many properties with Star Forming Galaxies (SFG). They have similar radio luminosities and similar optical- /infrared-to-radio flux ratios. Their radio luminosity functions show similar evolutionary trends, and their host galaxies have similar colours, optical morphologies and stellar masses. For all these reasons it was concluded that the radio emission in such RQ AGNs is mainly triggered by star formation (SF). However in the local Universe (z<0.5) it is well known that both AGN and SF processes can contribute to the total radio emission in RQ AGNs (see e.g., Seyfert 2 galaxies), and there is growing evidence that composite SF/AGN systems are common at mid to high redshift (z>1-2).

We used the Australian Long Baseline Array to observe a number of RQ AGNs in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS), and we detected compact, high-surface-brightness radio cores in some of them.

Our pilot study shows that at least some of the sources classified as radio quiet contain an AGN that can contribute significantly (~50% or more) to the total radio emission. This is a  first direct evidence of the presence of such AGN-triggered radio emission in RQ AGNs at cosmological redshifts.

description: The primary goal of this research is to create 3d maps of George Mason Fairfax roads. These maps will be used in the 3d driving simulator. Towards this goal I have decided to use Google Cartographer, which uses Lidar and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) data. The Cartographer has been developed and applied for slam inside buildings. In the original application Lidar and IMU units were worn in a backpack. Because of that Cartographer is adjusted for abundance of vertical features and relatively slow moving speeds. I have collected Lidar, IMU, HD video, and GPS data for the major GMU campus roads and several parking structures and lots over four days. I have used two different Lidars (VLP-16 and VLP-64) mounted on two different vehicles. I have written the needed drivers to integrate GPS data collection with VLP-16 data. I have fabricated mounts for VLP-16 and reconfigured VLP-64 mounts for these collections. I have processed the data using Cartographer in Robot Operating System (ROS). The collected data was archived on GMU servers for future teaching and research uses. In our application the Lidar and units were placed on a moving vehicle which travels at several times the speed of a walking person. In addition, the vertical features were more struct accurate point clouds for some roads and parking lots and structures, while in several cases more parameter tuning may be needed to make it work.

In many ways, the poems endeavor to ask, or answer, the question, ‘what happens when one considers another as loved before considering that other as human?’ The results are varied and displayed variously through event, aftermath, and meditation.

title: The Logic of Welfare Reform: An Analysis of the Reauthorization of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996

description: Those involved in creating contemporary welfare reform legislation in the United States have boasted that the legislation, the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA), has been successful in removing recipients from the cash assistance welfare rolls and thus from the State’s responsibility. Yet many analysts believe it has granted the State more invasive control over welfare recipients of cash assistance, even while reducing its role in providing a social safety net for them (Abramovitz 2000;Mink 1998;Neubeck 2006;Smith 2007). This reconfiguration of State regulation of low-income women and children, who are the majority of cash assistance recipients, involves a contradiction between the promotion of dependency on a male breadwinner via heterosexual marriage, or mandatory participation in paternity establishment and child support enforcement, and the promotion of self-sufficiency through low-wage work. This thesis analyzes the logic behind this major change in welfare policy, specifically by examining the legislative process leading up to the 2006 welfare reform reauthorization legislation, to determine if this contradiction has been recognized or not within mainstream poverty discourse. The thesis explores how policymakers and those working with policymakers verbally justified the contradiction in order for it to be written into law by analyzing the State’s discourse on poor women leading up to the reauthorization of this reform. An original feminist textual analysis of several Congressional hearings leading up to the February 8, 2006 reauthorization of PRWORA under the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 is presented. This feminist analysis focused on an examination of the processes by which a text is produced, such as Congressional hearings, and contains two elements: 1) a critical interrogation and deconstruction of the welfare reform discourse as it might be gendered, racialized, and classed in spite of policymakers’ and witnesses’ presentation of the welfare recipient as an asexual, disembodied citizen; and 2) an analysis of not only what is there, but what is missing and possibly presumed by the policymakers and polity alike. Most policymakers and hearing witnesses did not perceive these two aspects of welfare reform to be contradictory, but rather to be complementary. As the ideology of the work and family ethics continues to constitute the logic of welfare reform and to infuse its resulting discourse, the reality that work alone or dependency on a male breadwinner alone does not reduce poverty for most low-income women and children leads policymakers and their supporting witnesses to press for both simultaneously.

description: La población negra fue crucial para la formación de una sociedad de castas en Hispanoamérica, como sistema de contención del ascenso de personas diferentes a los españoles. Pero, ¿cómo surge una sociedad de castas en Yucatán, sin metales preciosos ni desarrollo de obrajes o agricultura de plantación? ¿Cuál fue la magnitud de la presencia negra y su función en la Mérida del siglo xvi? El artículo sostiene que en su etapa formativa, la sociedad meridana con población africana y afrodescendiente fue modelada por la mentalidad hijodalga. Los registros matrimoniales de 1563 a 1610 demuestran la existencia de criterios de clase laboral y étnicos previos a la formación del sistema de castas que se configuró justo cuando empezó el ennoblecimiento de la ciudad.

Abstract

The black population was crucial for the formation of a caste society in Latin America, such as the rise containment system different to the Spanish people. But how a caste society in Yucatan, without precious metal or obrajes development or plantation agriculture arises? What was the magnitude of the black presence and role in the Mérida of the sixteenth century? This article argues that in its formative stage, meridana partnership with African and Afro-American population was modeled by hijodalga mentality. The marriage records from 1563-1610 shows the existence of class and labor criteria prior to the formation of the caste system that was set up just as the uplifting of the city began ethnic.

description: Este artículo aborda el proceso seguido en el siglo xvi por la Escuela de Salamanca (Francisco de Vitoria, Domingo de Soto y Bartolomé de Las Casas) para interpretar, con base en la escolástica tomista, el significado de los pecados de la carne atribuidos a los indios americanos y concluir que su pasado formaba parte de la historia universal revelada por Dios y que dichos pecados eran señales de cristiandad.

Abstract

This article deals with the interpretation process carried out by the 16th century Salamanca School (Francisco de Vitoria, Domingo de Soto and Bartolomé de Las Casas), which was rooted in Thomistic Scholasticism, of the significance of the sins of the flesh attributed to the American Indians, and concluding that their past constituted part of world history revealed by God, and that those sins were signs of Christianity.

description: Se presenta en este artículo la compleja historia de la traducción alemana del cuento “El Aleph” de Jorge Luis Borges. Tras analizar sus múltiples versiones se elabora un enfoque especial en los poemas, que consideramos como parte significativa de la narración. Esto servirá para perfilar cómo se van modificando poco a poco los poemas en la versión alemana y en qué medida esto puede influir en la consideración de la complejidad literaria del texto. Llegamos a la hipótesis de que ninguna traducción se realiza fuera de su contexto correspondiente, sino que se puede considerar también como reflejo de los discursos cambiantes respecto a la obra de este autor en el curso de la segunda mitad del siglo xx.

Abstract
First and foremost this paper wants to present the complex translation history of the short story “El Aleph” by Jorge Luis Borges. By analyzing its multiple versions we will focus especially on the poems that we consider of significant importance for the narration to discover to what extent this could have an influence on the interpretations of the literary complexity of the story. Finally we propose the hypothesis that no translation can be realized outside its corresponding context, but that it could be considered a reflection of the changing discourses concerning this author during the second half of the 20th century.

description: El período comprendido en la Argentina por el gobierno militar de Juan Carlos Onganía (1966-1970) quedó retratado en el semanario nacionalista Azul y Blanco (AyB), un documento valioso por demostrar la oposición política de los nacionalistas a Onganía, pero también porque allí se plasmó la renovación estética y estilística que predominó en los sesenta. Si bien esta década fue en términos socioculturales y estéticos un período rico en transformaciones, muchas de ellas fueron resistidas por diversos actores locales, entre ellos el nacionalismo que representaba AyB. Sin embargo, las entrelíneas del discurso de esta publicación se contradicen con sus valoraciones negativas explícitas respecto de estos cambios. En este sentido, AyB articuló las tensiones que caracterizaron el proceso de cambio protagonizado por la cultura y el campo artístico locales en la década del sesenta y puso en evidencia el modo como estas transformaciones afectaron al medio intelectual nacionalista.

Abstract

The time during the military government of Juan Carlos Onganía (1966-1970) in Argentina was described in the nationalist weekly Azul y Blanco (AyB). This page stands as a valuable document for showing the political opposition of the Nationalists against Onganía but also for depicting the aesthetic and stylistic renovation that characterized the Sixties. Even though this decade was rich in socio-cultural and aesthetic innovations, different local actors such as the Nationalists represented by AyB resisted many of them. However, the subtext of this weekly’s discourse contradicted itself with the explicit negative opinions on these changes. For these reasons, AyB depicted the tensions that characterized the local process of cultural and artistic transformation of the Sixties and also how these influenced the intellectual nationalist milieu.

description: Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are characterised by strong variability at all wavelengths.

We exploited 3 years of VST monitoring observations of the COSMOS and CDFS regions, performed within the SUDARE/VOICE surveys, to assemble a sample of AGN candidates based on variability. Variability selection does not make strong a-priori assumptions about the properties of the sources and can thus integrate and complete samples selected by other techniques. We investigate the effectiveness and reliability of this selection method by comparing it with spectroscopic, X-ray and IR selected samples, showing that variability-selection can yield extremely pure samples, with completeness >50% with respect of X-ray and IR selections. We explore the dependence of variability from obscuration, mass and accretion rate, and predict the performance that can be expected by future monitoring surveys such as LSST.
