The aim of this paper is to establish the meaning of the notions of verisimilitude (τὸ εἰκός) and necessity (tò τὸ ἀναγκαῖον) in the formula “according to verisimilitude or according to necessity”, which plays an important role in the rules presented by Aristotle in his Poetics. The former notion is much less problematic than the latter, whose examination and clarification demand that attention be paid to passages in Aristotle’s work that have not been (or almost have not been) taken into account in this regard. An attempt is made to show the affinity or ultimate identity in the Aristotelian vision of action in the domains of poetics and ethics, and to establish the conceptual relationship that is suggested to exist between both notions in the Poetics.

Socially, we usually associate values or abilities with different animals, and this representation takes its roots in several literary genres in classical antiquity. In this paper, we analyze comparatively the configuration of donkey as characters in a corpus of Phaedrus' fables (1. 15, 1. 29, 2. 7 y 3. 6) and passages from the novel The Golden Ass of Apuleius (4. 5-4. 6, 7. 16-7. 23, 8. 23-8. 30) in order to address what fable and satire procedures present in Phaedrus' fables are resignified in Lucio's hybrid configuration (character and storyteller) as donkey and human.

This paper deals with Menippus or Necromancy of Lucian of Samosata, a satiric dialogue on Menippus' katabasis (descending to the underworld) to discover the best form of the human life. The issue articulates two generic traditions taking into account, on the one hand, the katabasis has taken shape in different mythological stories, and on the other hand, the quest for the best kind of the human life is a philosophic topic par excellence. Since both traditions were historically understood in tension: the myth on the side of pleasant writing; and the philosophy of writing aimed at utility, in Necromancy two paths are presented to solve such aporia. The problem arises from disavowal that the myth has obtained to deal with problems attributed philosophy as the existential question. To tackle this paradox the references and treatment given to the two traditions are analysed. Its purpose is to revise the tension based on the recognition in lucianic writing of a resignification of the myth by its conceptual skill in the formation of satire. The study delves into the impossibility of a monological vision because the aporia needs of both traditions. In this way, Lucian erases the limits of generic traditions and produces an answer to the serious intellectual problem with a mythical formulation that inscribes it in a system of creative writing.

The aim of this paper is to consider the epilogue (vv. 151-162) of the Virgilian cento Hippodamia -which narrates in 162 lines the myth of the princess - based on the narrative consequences of using different tenses, since this section is the only case in the whole cento where perfect tense exceeds present tense. The hypothesis is that the centonarius has 'narrative' motives for the use of each of those tenses, thus he can give more or less dramatic tension according to his needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the curricular transformations of the Adult Secondary Education (ASE) in Argentina, from 1968 to the present. A documentary analysis of (N = 32) official texts provided by the Ministry of Education and an inductive characterization is carried out, allowing the identification and description of four stages characterized by strong political, social and economic changes. Each stage describes the ESA's institutional objectives, the target population, the social and economic context, and its differences with other stages. The results indicate that at the beginning (stage 1), ASE was proposed to develop comprehensive adult education, based on the analysis of the adult students' needs. Curricular transformations, as a result of laws such as state reform and the transfer of education services to jurisdictions and the National Education Law, led the ASE to assume new responsibilities away from the purposes which it was created for.

This paper aims to contribute to the reflections on the conceptions of human rights from which we intervene in our practice in public universities. The look we propose an anchor in the perspective of peoples' rights and their dialogues with Latin American critical pedagogy. The work investigates the integrality of the practices and emphasizes the curricularization of the university extension from the perspective of peoples' rights. It also raises the need to assume the intersectional perspective in human rights pedagogy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Gender and women's studies have become more visible in recent years. A tangible advance not only in academic terms, but also at a social and educational level. Although these issues have gained notoriety in our country, we note that this does not affect the same intensity in the educational field. At secondary level, these issues enter preferably from the hand of the Comprehensive Sexual Education Law (Law No. 26,150) although this does not happen systematically. We ask ourselves then about the History that is taught not only in high school, but also at University. Within this framework, we promptly inquire into the entry of these issues within the History Teachers Program at the National University of La Plata. In sum, this is a paper that tries to question which historical subjects regain voice in the teaching of university History and at the same time it presents the curriculum as a cultural, historical and gendered device.

The study is part of a project that aims to analyze teacher training devices in the "Residencia" in Argentina, student teachers' training processes and the meaning making that they build during thier training (UBACyt 20020100100775, 2014-2017). The purpose of this paper is to show how the training process unfolds in the case of a future teacher in which an identity transformation takes place. We will show the interplay between intrasubjective and intersubjective aspects in this training process. Through the clinical method, which makes use of the analysis of indepth interviews, reports of experiences and classroom observations of a teacher in training, we develope a series of hypotheses from a post-Freudian psychoanalytic perspective and from clinical sociology. From the analysis arises the hypothesis that states that paradoxically, in the process of identity transformation that takes place, the conditions of origin of the student teacher are reproduced, even within the process of identity breakdown. In this way, the work shows how continuation is preesent in change. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article explains developments on exploratory research ongoing about reading and writing middle-school level students' literacy practices, where digital technologies are incorporated. Digital reading and writing at school have become relevant topics of study in response to questions about contemporary changes in written culture. Grounded in theories of literacy studies as social practice, this research aims to describe what happens in middleschool classrooms with digital literacy practices. The research adopts a theoretical perspective in which reading and writing, on screen or on paper, are considered social practices and that, in school, they reflect the complexity of all practice. It is a qualitative, descriptive study, using the main strategies of ethnographic research. From the systematization of the observations made in a third-year course in a secondary school of the Great Buenos Aires, in this article we focus on the reliability dimension of the texts that are found in the web, taking into account the changing landscape that digital technologies bring into classrooms.

This work traces an overview of recent advances in the knowledge about the appropriation and uses of writing by the indigenous population of Pampa, Patagonia and Araucanía between the 18th and the 21st centuries. The contributions to the identification and analysis of diverse corpus produced by indigenous people are stressed, since they allowed to achieve a more complex knowledge on the political relations between the indigenous leaders and state agents, highlighting the appropriation of the writing as a tool in the frontier diplomacy and as an expression of the commercial, parental and military networks that connected these regions. Also, this text introduces the papers in this special issue. The question about the formats, specificity and features of indigenous archives is the axis for this integrating reading of the articles to be presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The nineteenth century ranqueles letters contain a social story also shows fluctuations between confrontation and diplomacy, a profound interplay ethnic conflict and civil strife had in Argentina. This paper offers a summary of the letters ranqueles exchanged with different political, military and religious authorities between 1840 and 1879, located in two state archives and one religious. Reviewing our own travel research is the starting point for a review on the progress made in the declassification, constitution and study of this corpus which necessarily should be considered in dialogue with pieces written by the "Christian" partners the ranqueles.

Centered on oral communication in the Academy, the paper sets a dialogue between two voices: on the one hand, the practises and concerns of the students of a workshop on communicational abilities offered in the National University of Cordoba in 2018; and, on the other hand, contributions from language sciences (Barthes, 2003; Todorov, 2008; Van Dijk, 1983) and philosophy (Foucault, 1996; Skliar, 2015). Which are the challenges on oral academic communication for those who teach and learn? How do students learn when teachers give their lessons and how do they take the word in order to say their knowledge? From those starting points and in a flexible essay, the papertext unfolds reflections on philosophical, psychological, and socio-anthropological concepts --social control, power and self-care - as well as representations of technical concepts --conceptual precision, the adjustment to the communication situation, the discipline lexical realm, and the macro-structure --in order to consider some social and didactic implications of oral communication in the university environment.

The meaning and function of small villages in the south east of the province of Buenos Aires has shifted throughout time. Traditionally, a high proportion of minor urban centers grounded on the fact that communications were highly difficult and agricultural spaces needed to be placed near towns for their supply and for the marketing of their products. Currently, the role of many of the so-called minor towns has changed, together with their ability to remain in place or not, to provide services to the agricultural sector, or to take a new direction towards tourism. Accordingly, though in an incipient way, certain smaller localities are undergoing changes that are characterized by the restructuring of the productive processes that arose in the rural areas surrounding them, by the increase in non-agricultural activities or by the intensification of urban-rural flows. In this sense, this paper aims at analyzing the dynamics of the population residing in towns in the south east of the province of Buenos Aires, especially small towns, along the latest inter-census periods, trying to identify certain characteristic features of ruptures and continuities within spatial and temporal levels.

In the high basin of the Sauce Corto stream (in the Northern watershed of Ventania System in the Province of Buenos Aires), there are frequent extreme precipitation events, which generate floods that affect the socioeconomic development of Coronel Suárez district. In order to infer the hydrological response of the area, it is necessary to analyze the parameters and morphometric indexes that allow for the study of potentially dangerous basins flood. Accordingly, the aim of this paper is to identify variations in the hydrological response of different basins, according to parameters and morphometric indexes obtained from various data and scale sources. The multiple-scale analysis results show the importance of cartographic generalization processes associated to semi detail scaling. In the analysis of the hydrological response it is possible to infer that the use of 1:50.000 scale will possibly underestimate the basins torrentiality and, consequently, its potential danger.

Although being an amator is a feature that defines the adulescens from the point of view of palliata's code, the present paper argues that part of the humorousness of this character comes from the fact that this is a routine that Pamphilus develops only at a discursive level, which does not correspond to his actions on the stage. A second aspect of his humorousness is based on not being the palliata's typical indecisive adulescens, since, paradoxically, with his decision to avoid acting, he ends up playing the lead role in the plot development.

This paper intends to make a comparative study of the vocabulary related to the semantic field of the sense of vision in Euripides' Medea and in Seneca's Medea. We consider that this issue is of a prominent relevance in both tragedies, due to the high frequency of the explicit mention of these words. The aim is to analyze comparatively which implications these terms have in both plays, in order to examine to what extent they can provide a key for reading each of them. The hypothesis is that the vocabulary related to the sense of vision has a different dramatic function in these tragedies. Specifically, this implies a distinct configuration of the main character as a tragic character, and this may as well shed light on the global understanding of these plays. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

When we talk about cor pulmonale or pulmonary heart disease we refer to a heart that has been disrupted its structure and, therefore, its function as a result of chronic pulmonary disease. Many pulmonary abnormalities can cause this disorder at heart level but all of that are characterized by increased vascular resistance or high blood pressure in the lungs. This condition causes right - sided heart failure. So, pulmonary heart disease or cor pulmonale is the enlargement (hypertrophy and sometimes dilation) and failure of the right ventricle as a response to pulmonary hypertension. This paper describes this disease in a mixed breed eleven-year-old canine, which arrived in consultation with decay, anorexy and dyspnea. A complete clinical examination, and then two-dimensional and M-mode echocardiography, doppler echocardiography, chest x-ray and electrocardiography were carried out. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to point out the relevance of Psychoanalysis for an emancipatory interpretation of Nietzsche's work. Our hypothesis is that a Freudian interpretation of Nietzsche -more or less explicit in Freud's thought- made possible a critical use of his work. That interpretation allows us to remove the Nietzsche's aristocratic, slave, political program, without discarding his most relevant contributions. In addition, it allowed us to revalue topics that had been unjustly relegated from a perspective that favored the economy among other human dimensions. For various epistemological, moral and political reasons, the fertile convergence of Marxism and Psychoanalysis overshadowed the relationships between Nietzsche and Freud, both of them critics of religion and morality. A wide range of problems of social theory can be redefined -and not only improved- under their perspective. In this paper we propose to interpret key aspects of Nietzsche's genealogy of moral through the Freudian understanding of resentment and of neurosis of civilization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper begins by historicizing certain issues that are put at stake in the extension of mandatory schooling in Argentina, as elaborated in the 2006 National Education Law which, in which from its extension to the end of secondary education it includes more actors and institutions. In order to accomplish this, laws and regulations are analyzed, as well as parliamentary debates and various documents. The second half of this paper accounts for the different circulating meanings regarding to the schooling of those who attend Secondary Level Educational Centers (students, teachers, directors). Since they did not tend to identify youths and adults as subjects of the regulation that establishes compulsory education, it is argued that historical configurations intervene in this stance, configurations that are linked to said command as well as to personal experiences. In this second half of the paper, the records of the ethnographic fieldwork conducted in two Secondary Level Educational Centers are analyzed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the last decades, transformations in the rural sector set out challenges to think the current dynamics that underlies it; among other things, related to the production model that has been defined, to the processes that different stakeholders directly related to the activity have gone through, and to the socio-economic dynamics linked to the rural sector that unfold and their impact on local spaces. This paper reflects on what has happened in rural Argentina, particularly in the Pampas Region, in relation to these problems. The paper starts by considering some transformation processes that have taken place in the rural sector at a global level to analyse, then, the dominant trends of the rural sector in the Pampas region that allow us to affirm that a new model of agricultural development has been introduced. On the basis of various antecedents, the paper will then present a conceptual proposal to address the problem of the territorial dynamics of the rural actors, the economic aspects and their incidence on local spaces. This dynamics has not been studied specifically from this perspective, and emphasizes the economic-productive elements implied in the constructions, deconstructions and reconstructions of territories, resorting to the notion of capital circulation of the rural actors which constitutes a relevant point to understand the processes that emerge today in agricultural development.

Recent investigations on gender have shown that they do not constitute a multi-centered arena of knowledge production. But, that there is a clear division between center and peripherias, strongly influenced by the United States as a hegemonic centre in theoretical production (Wöhrer, 2016). This paper follows Walter Benjamin's suggestion to write a countercurrent History, which means, firstly, to appropriate critical elements to denounce various faces of epistemic injustice (Fricker, 2007). This concept will help us to illustrate how in Latin America, materialist francophone feminism interweaved together many other silenced contributions. To reconstruct those streams is political as it restitutes a plurality of voices and exhibits how epistemic or cognitive extractivism favors feminism not only to revise theories but also practices. This is how Colette Guillaumin's critical Concepts help to revise and give voice to many "mude concepts" present in the Gender Studies Western Canon, especially when analyzing racism.

Argentine Patagonia was incorporated to the national State late in the last decades of the 19th century, after the end of the bloody military campaign that sought state control of the indigenous territory of the south. From then until the 1930s the process of providing educational institutions to the vast Patagonian territory was discontinuous, slow and very uneven in the different regional spaces, intensifying in the urban nuclei and becoming invisible in the Patagonian mesetaria zone. In this context, it is the purpose of this paper to analyze the trajectories of female students and teachers in the first half of the 20th century from the perspective of those who exercised direct authority over them: principals -mostly males- and school inspectors. We are interested in analyzing, from a gender perspective, the presence of teachers in the classrooms, the desired behaviors and the goals to be met according to pedagogical and axiological considerations, within the framework of a normalizing and prescriptive process. For this purpose, we have used a vast array of sourcesreferring to the National Territory of Rio Negro, including school historical books, inspection reports, school concepts teachers, school visit books, school reports, regional and national press articles.

this paper analyzes the significance of the expression "argentino neutro" [neutral Argentinian], used from 2009 to 2015 in official documents on the education portal Educ.ar and on the Ministry of Education's various TV channels ("Encuentro," "Pakapaka" and "DeporTV"). By examining style manuals in detail from Encuentro and Pakapaka, corresponding to the years 2012-2015, we will attempt to show that these documents construct a linguistic model alternate to the various attempts at Spanish language unification, in particular "Panhispanism" or so-called "neutral Spanish." Moreover, this alternative linguistic model was consistently reflected in the Ministry of Education's television programming, which exhibited a much more diverse linguistic representation in Argentinian media than usual.

From an interdiscoursive and interdisciplinary perspective, this paper explores different representations with which the Mapuche People of the Gulumapu constructed their processes of cultural and territorial differentiation in tension with the Chilean Nation State. Through heterogeneous discourses -historical, literary, media, testimonial and of political organizations-, a process is expressed that moves from an ancestral unitary vision to strategically assumed modern conceptions, typical of new geopolitical and supranational scenarios, such as those of the State and/or nation. It is concluded that this process mainstream their discourses, which as a whole represent a shared collective imaginary that relates the ancestral notion -Wallmapu- with the modern vision -nation and/or Mapuche State.

It is hard to see oneself as the research subject. In this paper, we try to uncover the roads that lead to an integral formation, combining personal experiences and the beginning of a professional career as a professor. This formation led to a dynamic and enriching grid of experiences that helped determine the creation of the subject- professor. Through the narration of her own story, a new professor reflects upon different points of focus that allow us to rethink her formation.We stayed away from the classic analysis format and, instead, put the emphasis on the professor, self-interpreted from multireferential perspectives.We conceptualized the formation in its relation to the early stages of a teaching career, from a dynamic and subjective perspective, influenced by opportunities and experiences.

In this paper we present the evaluation of an innovative experience carried out at the Colegio Concertado La Salle de Córdoba, an educational center in which one of the three researchers plays the role of teacher. The study consists of the development and implementation of a methodological resource for the teaching of the subject of Social and Natural Sciences: the teacher's portfolio. The analysis of the data indicates that the strategy has improved, among other aspects, creativity, group work and critical and reflective thinking of teachers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article derives from an ongoing research work aimed at studying formative experiences that take place in primary schools in Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. In this context, the paper analyzes the characteristics of the educational proposal for one specific subject of the first tier, as it is delineated by the official curriculum. Through an analytical reading of the document that focuses on its discursive features, it is argued that the curriculum would configure a paradoxical experience of detachment as a formative plan for the students. It is shown how the official pedagogic discourse articulates an instructional and expressive order that simultaneously would pursue the reconstruction of ideas and the production of predominantly rational agents. The transmission of a code aspiring to a detached relation between the agents and the world as a particular relationship with knowledge is thought to be fundamental in that discourse. The analysis shares broader reflections that invite to rethink the ways in which curriculum policies contribute to configure meanings and conditions for school experiences at the primary level.

Latin American urban contexts are defined by their demographic, cultural and linguistic diversity. In the same way, schools are multilingual and multicultural spaces, enriched, in many cases, by students who speak indigenous languages. In contrast, the Argentinian school has historically transmitted one 'national' language, identity and culture, in line with homogenizing values and school practices. The present study inquiries about the instruction of Spanish guided by linguistic ideologies bind together to monolingual and assimilation of diversity, focusing on teacher teaching on school context at Ciudad de Buenos Aires, with students who are either Quechua speakers or speakers of Andean Spanish (dialect in contact with Quechua). According to this, one of the goals in this paper is to provide theoretical tools about language contact (Spanish-Quechua), such as the concept of Linguistic Transferences (Clyne, 1976) and typological generalities of Quechua. The other goal is to offer resources for the language teacher considering Standard Spanish as well as the languages and dialects of the students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the work done in a Research Development scholarship awared at UNLPam to a member of the research project "Student's autonomy based on alternative materials". Three didactic units were created to teach the contents prescribed by the Ministry of Education of La Pampa in relation to the grammar taught in third year state High School: present simple and present continuous, simple past and past continuous. Comprehensive Sexual Education was used to teach the lexicon of the language. Apart from the contents proposed in the Curricula, categories such as gender, naturalization, trivialization and stereotype were considered in the topics of different text types such as narrations and descriptions. First, textbooks used in High School were critically analysed and alternative didactic materials were designed taking into account the contents prescribed in the curricula and the experiential culture of the students. Working following this approach allows students to acquire the abilities of the language through tools that allowed to interpellate hegemonic discourses and build relevant knowledge for critical citizenship and to critically reflect upon teaching practices.

For the Pampean agricultural actors the land has been historically considered not only as an economic heritage, but also as symbolic and affective one. In recent decades, the advance of the agribusiness production model questioned the fundamental relationship between subject and land, disarticulating the centrality of the latter as an identity substrate. The discourse disseminated by the defenders of this model in the public sphere re-defines the land as another commodity and addresses the protagonists of production as "the landless". The aim of this paper is to analyze the relevance that the land holds in the identitary constructions of the Pampean agricultural actors and the influence of the agribusiness discourse on those constructions. By considering Stuart Hall's approach of identifications (2003), we analyse a corpus of 42 interviews carried out between the years 2016 and 2018 in two counties of the province of Buenos Aires which present very different agroecological characteristics (Ayacucho and Baradero), and 329 surveys carried out by our research team in 2013 in the same province.

Starting from a study on the category of hybridity, this paper examines the extant fragments of Cratinus' Chirons, whose isolated testimonies include several didactic verses in which the distinction between nature and civilization becomes disrupted with a clear humorous intention. Within an environment of mixture and heterogeneity, the play manages to create a distorted reflection of reality in which men, animals and gods coexist without rules in a world saturated by political, legal, sexual and lexical corruption. Through an overlapping of the figure of Cratinus and the chorus of Centaurs, these political subversions prove not to be alien to the procedures frequently installed by the comic genre when crossing borders and playing with intertexts. The play then produces interesting effects by mixing and intersecting opposites and exploiting the hybrid nature of its wide variety of allusions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper dealt with the reading of postmodern thinkers in issues raised by Augustine. Analysed as Augustine in the Confessiones values to the word Tehom-abyssus of Genesis, since it considers it positive when used to imagine the world as a spongy body surrounded of God, but negative when using it to refer to the original fall of the angels and of human beings, with the subsequent rescue of the spirit through the waters of baptism. This term has allowed Augustine expressed his own interiority and aspects of the cosmos where is reflected both in its own condition as redeemed sinner. We also refer to their intense pursuit of wisdom, whose femininity reflects the femininity of Monica, which is presented by Augustine as a model of wise woman. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The work of Juan José Saer highlights the mediated nature of language through the verification of the unavoidable presence of a gaze. However, the detailed description of the characters' perception in his novels presents a problem that transcends that recognition. For in his narrations the gaze faces obstacles that hinder its projection, summoning a question. In this paper we study the dimensions of this caesura figure as a privileged space of inquiry about the subject of the gaze. Based on the follow-up of a series of textual operations included mainly in El limonero real (1974) and in Nadie nada nunca (1980), in which the reading process is subverted to its basic assumptions, we recognize the ambivalent "half-erased" status of meaning in the literary text between understanding attempts and their denial.

This paper revises the Osterix protein and its role in the skeletongenesis, the endochondral ossification and in various pathological processes of the osteoarticular systems in animals. Osterix is a transcription factor of the family of bone morphogenic proteins, which prompts bone formation. In the skeletogenesis Osterix allows the differentiation of the preosteoblasts into osteoblasts and the maturity and differentiation of osteoblasts into osteocytes. In the endochondral ossification, Osterix expresses in the mature and hypermature chondrocytes and contributes to degrade the cartilage matrix. In the extrauterine life, it collaborates in the regulation of the bone homeostasis and it is involved in osteoarticular pathologies, in bone oncology and in the repair of fractures. Learning about the action of Osterix on the bone cells and chondrocytes is an attractive starting point for further research aiming at contributing to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the osteoarticular system in animals.

Emotions had long been marginalized from the historical enterprise. However, since the beginning of the 21st century, emotion not only turned into an analytic category and an autonomous object of research, but also contributed to shape a flourishing and rapidly expanding research domain. On the one hand, this paper outlines the process of shaping of the field of history of emotions which was prompted by a transdisciplinary perspective and a theoretical and methodological dialogue with the humanities and the social sciences, as well as, with the biomedical sciences and the neurosciences. And, on the other, it introduces current debates and sketches some of the future directions the field might take. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article analyzes the editorial position of the Peronist magazine Línea in the face of the formation of the Multipartidaria between 1981 and 1982, during the Argentine military dictatorship (1976-1983). The Multipartidaria brought together the main Argentine political parties and functioned as a tool to pressure the military government of the time to lay the foundations of the transition to democracy. However, it featured a more "moderate" sector, inclined to the agreement with the dictatorship, and a "harder" one, not inclined to agreement with the dictatorship. The paper studies how Línea evaluated the emergence of this new political space, what position it should adopt in the face of the dictatorship and how the Peronism that integrated it was to be handled.

In this paper we analyze the university policies taken place throughout the coup d'etat of 1966 under Onganía's (1966-1970) and Levingston's (1970-1971) presidencies. Accordingly, we reconstruct the strategies that were implemented during these years in order to build a dialogue with the university youth. We argue that these actions took place after the repression failed. For this purpose, we worked with primary and secondary sources, among which newspapers, journals and presidential speeches stand out. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article examines the incorporation process of the so-called "argentine emigration", in war forces and political circles of Montevideo and its rural hinterland between 1838 and 1846. This phenomenon, full of tensions, had a strong impact on the reconfiguration of local identities and "parties". Starting from a quantitative analysis about the volume of the military "emigration" this paper postulates that the construction of two officers' groups in the Río de la Plata region - "Argentine" and "Oriental"- was in fact a slow and conflictive process and was still far from complete in the middle of the nineteenth century.

This article tries to delve into the relationship between the media and the political sphere. The paper analyzes the speech of the newspaper La Nación in the period between October 1, 2015 and the fifteen days following the triumph of the the argentinian political party Cambiemos, limiting the empirical reference to opinion columns and editorials. Is in those articles where we can find the senses that La Nación attributed to populism, this time embodied in the kirchnerismo. The work seeks to put into discussion some of the ideas of Ernesto Laclau and Pierre Bourdieu, understanding that they allow us to understand for the tensions that arise between the political field and the journalistic field, as well as to make visible the discursive practices put into play by the journalistic field, through which seeks to operate on the symbolic reality of society.

This paper analyzes the press control practices used by the provincial political powers of Entre Ríos between 1862 and 1870. This period was characterized by an increasing political dispute and the deepening of public debate. An indication of this process is the increase in the number of newspapers and the diversity of their political positions. Most of the newspapers were Federalists and supporters of Urquiza, but they maintained a space of discursive autonomy and what was published did not always go along the lines of the caudillo's interest. Also, there were Unitary and dissident Federal newspapers which were very critical of the provincial government and the figure of Urquiza. Respect for press freedom as a legitimating principle of the exercise of power prevented the development of legislation restricting that freedom and discouraged the practice of filing law suits for libel against publishers or journalist among provincial officials. Hence, the way in which political power managed to limit opinion was dominated by informal practices of political control. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper studies the arguments regarding the regulation of freedom of the press in Corrientes during the second half of 19th century. In the first section I describe the main features of Corrientes' newspapers and the political context in which these discussions were held. Later, I analyze the participation of Agustín Justo, Miguel Morel and Santiago Baibiene in newspapers from Entre Ríos and Buenos Aires. The links between the debates about the freedom of press and the performance of the journalists in exile shows that these controversies revolved around three issues: the moral duties attributed to the press for the consolidation of a republican system; the limitations regarding the legitimacy of political dissent, and the role of the press in the trajectories of political elites.

This paper analyzes the conflictive implementation of freedom of the press in Buenos Aires, after the fall of Rosas' regime. It examines norms and the initiatives to reform them, some trials, government actions, and the debates within the legislature and the press. The study discusses the traditional interpretation according to which, in the province of Buenos Aires, those years were characterized by a wide freedom of expression. It also argues that the difficulties to implement freedom of the press in the 19th century are explained by the tension between the consideration of the press as a pillar of civilized, republican societies and, at the same time, as a corrosive agent of the social and political order.

Conceiving the curriculum as an element in which different knowledge and interests get inside the game, in this paper, we propose a compilation of background records that have addressed curricular change and, while analyzing some of them, we propose a particular way of approaching to the analysis of this process taking into account current research. The precedents are located mainly in universities in Rio de la Plata countries and analyze the change from two spotlights: subjects and products. The comprehension of these processes would be enriched if the institutional and disciplinary logics that operate in the change were considered, at least in undergraduate programs of certain areas of knowledge.

In this paper I present a state of the art of the implications that the comparison between the writings of Philo of Alexandria and those produced by the rabbis of the first centuries CE have for the study of ancient and late ancient Judaism in general and the rabbinic movement in particular. This not only leads to a problematization of the parallelisms between the Philonic texts and the rabbinical ones, but also the morphology of Judaism in both periods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims at increasing the knowledge related with specialized historiography on the field of migration and tuberculosis in the early decades of the twentieth century, within the context of the internal migration that arrived to the province and the city of Córdoba. Technical literature and testimonies of the time are used as sources. The article is organized in two main sections. On the one hand, it analyses the type of migration that arrived to the city in the context of a healthcare system regarding tuberculosis’ treatment under construction. On the other, it analyses the discourses and concepts that emerged from local power sectors in a scenario characterized by low-income immigrants and a weak healthcare system regarding tuberculosis’ treatment. The paper identifies the existence of concepts and discourses that tended to make the immigrant responsible for spreading the diseases to “healthy” residents and “invading” the city of Cordoba with sick people as well as to bring the collapse of the healthcare system.

The paper examines the positions taken by European feminists during World War I, a fact which divided waters between the pacifists and warmongers. Pacifists women held the International Congress of The Hague in 1915 that requested the immediate end of the war. The pacifist women of social democracy also met in Bern, Switzerland as opposed to their male peers, who voted for war credits. The war broke feminism that could only compose herself about demand rights after 1918. The paper also analyzes the thought of Virginia Woolf against the war in her book “Three Guineas”. She blames the patriarchy by wars, but she says that wars can be sustained with the cooperation of women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This purpose of this paper is to analyze the role of rural women in the organization and creation of collective participation spaces, not only as a way of earning a living that may improve the living conditions of small family farmers but also as a way of resisting the territorial expulsion and the loss of their socio - cultural identity. To achieve this purpose, the paper analyzes a case study: The Steppe Crafts Market, an example of Supportive and Social Economy, which is located in the Pilcaniyeu Department, province of Rio Negro. The analysis is based on the life-storytelling technique, starting from a thorough interview of one rural craftswoman. The results allow for understanding the way in which women create a working space and a income source that tend to the social reproduction of the household unit, combining production and reproduction and, at the same time, increasing self - esteem, the re-appraisal of their own culture and ancestral knowledge, the motivation for training in the craftsmanship art, in issues related to social and family economy, and in communal participation, among others.

Supported by the evidence found in documents produced by undergraduate and graduate students, the text is focused on representative samples of language practices, autobiography writing, and metacognitive reflections linked with text production from students at the higher education level, analyzed through Carlino (2005), Brito (2010), Natale (2012), Bidiña and Zerillo (2013), Navarro (2013) and others. In general, as an advance conclusion, it can be said that students complain that the intense monotoring carried out by the teaching staff at the beginning of the lerarning process decreases as the course is in progress, but they also show signs of having difficulties in the framing of the enunciator, and their papers manifest scarce rhetorical and pragmatic abilities, in spite of the two decades elapsed since the functional communicative approach for language teaching was officially prescribed in Argentina. Furthermore, students object the lack of common criteria among the teachers regarding the use of academic text formats, and demand institutional agreements or between the faculty members concerning the criteria for the evaluation of papers.
