[Rev. of: Faith and Selfhood in a Changing Society: Autobiography and Orthodoxy in Russia from the End of the Seventeenth to the Beginning of the Twentieth Century, ed. Laurie Manchester and Denis A. Sdvizhkov. Moscow: NLO, 2019. 408 pp. (in Russian)] The collection of papers “Faith and Selfhood in a Changing Society: Autobiography and Orthodoxy in Russia from the End of the Seventeenth to the Beginning of the Twentieth Century” served as a stimulus for reflection on Orthodoxy in Russia and autobiographies as a literary genre at the beginning of the early Modern Age from a Mediterranean point of view. Studying the contributions of fifteen prominent scholars from Russia, Poland, Germany, Canada and the United States on various aspects of the immensely rich Russian spiritual heritage from the mid-17th until the first half of the 20th centuries, the author recognizes their fundamental connection in a sincere interest in the gradual modernization of the Russian society, deeply rooted in the Russian Orthodox faith, as well as in the gradual development of individualism, both in its institutional and non-institutional forms: within the framework of the Russian imperial state and official patriarchal church institutions, but also on the periphery of political movements and religious sects. Despite the relatively narrow area of research devoted to various forms of autobiographies (written mainly by the clergy, less often by the members of secular aristocratic and bourgeois circles), this collection of papers represents not only a carefully written and reliable way to understand one of the fundamental aspects of the Russian spiritual culture, but it also invites for comparison with other similar environments. This prompted the author of the review to make a journey through the parallel literary world of the Republic of Dubrovnik (as the only independent Slavic state in that period, with the exception of the Russian Empire) from the 16th to the 19th centuries, with the conclusion that the predominance of biographies to the detriment of autobiographies in Dubrovnik at that time also speaks of strong pragmatism and aspiration to take care exclusively of the state interests in the literary sphere.

Challenges of weak economic growth, population decline, and labour shortages led many countries across the world to introduce immigration policy changes in order to attract foreign migrants. This paper focuses on Japan (Tokyo) and the UK (Birmingham, Edinburgh and Glasgow) given common concerns over long term demographic trends and the burgeoning lack of labour supply in particular sectors of the economy through use of foreign labour. The paper shifts the focus from efforts focused on attracting and selecting foreign labour to the retention of such individuals. Drawing on research with EU migrants in Japan and the UK, the paper highlights how staying may occur after a period of mobility, rather than only being of relevance to those who never left their home region. The paper develops a new conceptual framework, which helps to identify different dimensions that shape migrant staying as a temporal process. It is highlighted how staying is shaped incrementally and facilitated or undermined over time in relation to the reciprocal importance of diverse assets, anchors and the changing biographies of migrants and the places in which they live – as well as the relational aspects of migrants’ ‘linked lives’.

Gender biases had denied women the opportunity to engage with the sciences and empirical learning until the late nineteenth century. These biases were thwarted when the determination of a set of reformers and the practical needs felt by a gender-segregated society generated the demand for trained female medical professionals in India. This paper reflects on the evolution and fruition of a gendered identity of women in the field of medicine as qualified doctors in late colonial Bengal. This paper will present an analysis of women’s fraught relations with scientific learning and its subsequent application in Bengal with special focus on women’s inception into professional medicine. The biographical works of Kadambini Ganguly, Jamini Sen and Haimabati Sen will serve as the crucial source for analysing the earliest experiences of women in the medical profession. The adjoining section of the paper will assess the influence of knowledge of science/medicine and the Bengali women’s consequent interest and engagement with issues pertaining to women’s health as reflected in articles published in Bengali medical and women’s journals from the late nineteenth century. This section will argue that bio-medical concerns pertaining to various issues of social reforms with respect to women, were effectively articulated in the vernacular journals. The paper will assess the evolution of a unique identity of Bengali women as doctors and of women with a scientific temperament engaging with the knowledge of health and medicine. The paper will explore the evolution of this identity in the backdrop of the colonial context which created special circumstances for women to explore their individuality.

Macrolithic tools are linked to daily activities and, fundamentally, to settlements, hence their importance for the study of Late Prehistoric societies. However, these objects are also associated with funerary contexts, but have not often been analysed holistically. This paper studies an assemblage of macrolithic elements from three collective tombs from the third millennium cal. BC at the site of La Orden-Seminario (Huelva, Spain), from a theoretical and methodological perspective based on the biography of the object. Our analysis focuses on typology, raw materials, technology, function and burial context. The results show that the tools can be linked to domestic activities such as the grinding of cereals and the processing of plant materials, as well as for the production and maintenance of the elements used in these activities. The analysed objects display long biographies of use and, in some cases, we have documented intentional breakage for their deposition in the tombs. The patterns of deposition in the funerary contexts reflect social practices related to the ritual and symbolic behaviours surrounding death and the relationship with everyday objects., This study has been carried out within the framework of the R+D+i Project ‘MEGA-LITHOS. Geo-archaeological study methods for the investigation of the Huelva megalithisms’ (UHU-1263153), at the University of Huelva, funded by the Operative Programme ERDF 2014-2020 and the Department of Economy and Knowledge of the Government of Andalusia. The funding of the open access fee has been covered by the University of Huelva, thanks to an agreement with Cambridge University Press. We are grateful to Dr Juan Carlos Vera-Rodríguez for facilitating the study of the materials and Dr Teodosio Donaire Romero for his collaboration in the petrographic analysis.

Apart from the well-known Russian-born architects, dozens of lesser-known Russian émigrés lived and worked in construction in Belgrade. The paper provides additional biographical data based on the archival material contained in the fonds and collections of the Histor­ical Archives of Belgrade. The addenda concern both those who were registered architects and those whose names are signed on the surviving blueprints and who were not only architects but also engineers, construction workers, building contractors. The paper brings basic biographical data followed by the locations of the structures for which the blueprints survive.

European journal for Research on the Education and Learning of Adults 5 (2014) 2, S. 195-207, The demands laid on the individual by increasingly fragmented life-wide learning imperatives lead to constant pressure on adults of ‘migratory background’ to display agency and take up a position vis-à-vis cultural-ethnic ‘belonging’, while around them an integration/assimilation debate continues to rage in German public discourse. The focus of this paper will therefore be the experiences of transition and transformation in learning biographies which are often experienced as self-‘translation’. The paper will address agency, inclusion/exclusion in the learning biographies of young adults who straddle the precarious identity of German-Turk/Turk-German. I use here talk elicited in the learning biography of a student of Turkish origin. The assertion of agency-in-diversity is given voice in uneven ways. The extracts allow us to listen closely to the workings of agency in the subjective, shared experience related in auto/biographical narratives. (DIPF/Orig.)

State and international entities can have profound effects on the development of a country’s nursing profession. Through a global health governance lens, this paper explores the development of nursing in Brazil during the early twentieth century, and its intersections with national and international interests. Accordingly, we will show how state policies established an environment that fostered the institutionalization of nursing as a profession in Brazil and supported it as a means to increase the presence of females in nation building processes. The State focused on recruiting elite women for nursing, in part due to the Rockefeller Foundation’s involvement in the country. Nurses who worked for Rockefeller came from well-educated classes within US society with specific ideas about who should be a nurse and the roles of nurses in a healthcare system. These women served as the primary vehicles for interacting with Brazilian health authorities responsible for health system development. Their early efforts did not, however, ensure a system capable of producing nursing human resources at a rate that, in present day Brazil, could meet the health needs of the country. Findings from this paper offer new avenues for historians to explore the early roots of professional nursing through a global health governance lens, improve the understanding of the intersection between international politics and professionalization, and highlight how these factors may impact nursing human resources production in the long term. Entidades estatais e internacionais podem ter efeitos profundos sobre o desenvolvimento da profissão de enfermagem de um país. Através de uma lente global de governança de saúde, este documento analisa o desenvolvimento da enfermagem no Brasil durante o início do século XX, e suas interseções com os interesses nacionais e internacionais. Desta forma, vamos mostrar como políticas de Estado estabeleceram um ambiente que promoveu a institucionalização da enfermagem como profissão no Brasil, apoiando-se na ideia de aumentar a presença das mulheres nos processos de construção da nação. O Estado focou em recrutar mulheres de elite para a enfermagem, em parte devido ao envolvimento da Fundação Rockefeller no país. As enfermeiras que trabalharam para a Fundação Rockefeller, provenientes de uma classe social americana bem-educada, tinham ideias específicas sobre quem deveria ser enfermeira e os papéis das mesmas em um sistema de saúde. Estas mulheres atuaram como os principais veículos para a interação com as autoridades brasileiras, responsáveis pelo desenvolvimento do sistema de saúde. Seus esforços iniciais não conseguiram, no entanto, assegurar um sistema capaz de producir recursos humanos de enfermagem a uma taxa que, nos dias de hoje, poderia satisfazer as necessidades de saúde do Brasil. Os resultados do presente estudo oferecem pistas sobre novos caminhos para historiadores explorarem as raízes da enfermagem profissional, utilizando uma perspectiva global de governança de saúde, a fim de melhorar a compreensão da interseção entre políticas internacionais e profissionalização, destacando como esses fatores podem impactar a produção de recursos humanos de enfermagem a longo prazo. Organizaciones estatales e internacionales pueden tener efectos profundos sobre el desarrollo de la profesión de enfermería de un país. A través de la óptica de la gobernación global de la salud, este documento analiza el desarrollo de la enfermería en Brasil en el inicio del siglo XX, y sus intersecciones con los intereses nacionales e internacionales. Por consecuencia, vamos enseñar como las políticas del Estado establecieron un ambiente que promocionó la institucionalización de la enfermería como profesión en Brasil, y la apoyó como medio para aumentar la presencia de las mujeres en los procesos de construcción de la nación. El Estado ha focalizado en el reclutamiento de mujeres de élite para la enfermería, en parte debido al envolvimiento de la Fundación Rockefeller en el país. Enfermeras que trabajaban para Rockefeller, también provenían de clases bien-educadas de la sociedad de los Estados Unidos, imbuidas de ideas específicas sobre quién debería ser una enfermera y su papel en un sistema de salud. Esas mujeres actuaron como vehículos primordiales en la interacción con autoridades brasileñas, responsables por el desarrollo del sistema de salud. Entretanto, sus esfuerzos iniciales no fueron suficientes para garantizar un sistema capaz de producir recursos humanos de enfermería con una tasa que, en los días de hoy, el Brasil podría satisfacer las necesidades de salud del país. Los hallados de este estudio ofrecen pistas sobre nuevos caminos para historiadores explotaren las primeras raíces de la enfermería profesional valiéndose de la lente de gobernanza global de la salud; mejoraren la comprensión de la intersección entre políticas internacionales y profesionalización; y aún destacaren, como eses factores pueden impactar la producción de recursos humanos de enfermería a largo plazo.

[cat] No hi ha cap dubte que un dels camps que mes avança als últims anys, és el de la història cultural, el qual s’està convertint en un element de matis i complement a la història política. Paral·lelament a aquests interessos de investigació s’han trobat un punt d’equilibri metodològic entre el tractament del impacte de les propostes culturals, ideològiques i polítiques en les masses, i el paper de les individualitats, de manera que tot allò ha revertit en una nova mirada cap a la dimensió dels treballs biogràfics. La tesi que presenta el Dr. Victoriano Durán parteix d’aquests pressuposts, ja que pretén avançar en l’estudi de la dimensió cultural en el franquisme a partir de l’estudi de les complicitats i xarxes culturals en les que va participar el destacat metge barcelonès. Certament, la figura del doctor Agustí Pedro i Pons es sobradament coneguda al mon de la medicina, ja que va marcar una decisiva petjada tant per les seves investigacions com per la seva tasca de docent i mestre de metges. No obstant, si limitem el seu paper en aquest sentit estricte oblidem part de la seva activitat. I es que sabem que en molts casos els professionals (metges, advocats, arquitectes, ...) han sigut un sector d’enorme dinamisme mes enllà del seu entorn laboral estricte, i que individualment o a través de les seves escoles professionals van desenvolupar una important tasca cultural que transcendia el seu treball diari. El busseig previ de Victoriano Durán en l’arxiu del doctor Pedro i Pons, permet plantejar una investigació que va a donar llum precisament a aquesta tasca de dinamitzador cultural, molt relacionada amb la seva visió del mon universitari. Gracies a aquest ric arxiu, aquesta investigació podrà analitzar moltes de les xarxes culturals de l’època, algunes formals, però d’altres mes difícils de percebre, i podrà indicar relacions mes fluides del que normalment es sosté entre la cultura oficial i altres iniciatives independents. El professor doctor Agustí Pedro i Pons (1898-1971) va ser catedràtic de patologia i clínica mèdica de la Facultat de Medicina de la Universitat de Barcelona. Va destacar àmpliament per treballs com el “Tratado de Patologia i Clínica Médicas”, i per la creació de l’ escola de medicina mes reputada de l’estat espanyol i la projecció dels seus deixebles dins les especialitats mèdiques. Considerat el metge consultor mes important, la seva fama va traspassar fronteres, i va obrir nous camins a la medicina contemporània dins l’època de l’Espanya franquista. Gran bibliòfil i amant de les arts i la cultura catalana, va destacar com un gran mecenes i protector de les arts. Un gran home de negocis, i una persona amb gran sensibilitat humanística. Faceta desconeguda fins ara. La investigació dona a conèixer un personatge des de la faceta social i cultural, per ara poc estudiada i posa en valor aquesta gran figura amb molta transcendència històrica dins la medicina i sobre tot social i culturalment, on des de l’ombra va destacar molt àmpliament en la protecció de la cultura catalana amb una implicació molt forta. Per tant amb la tesi es posen uns fonaments molt sòlids en el que es la recuperació i reivindicació de la figura del metge i obre la porta a la recuperació de personatges íntimament lligats amb el catalanisme però amb vincles al franquisme., [eng] Professor Dr. Agustin and Pedro Pons (1898-1971) was professor of pathology and medical clinic of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Barcelona. He highlighted work extensively as the "Treaty of Pathology and Medical Clinic" and the creation of the most reputable medical school in Spain and the screening of his disciples within the medical specialties. Considered the most important medical consultant, his fame transcended borders and opened new paths in contemporary medicine in the time of Franco's Spain. Great bibliophile and lover of the arts and culture Catalan, noted as a great protector and patron of the arts. A great businessman and a person with humanistic sensitivity. Hitherto unknown facet. The research unveils a character from the social and cultural aspect, so far little studied and highlights this great figure with great historical significance in medicine and especially socially and culturally, from where the shade was widely noted the protection of Catalan culture with a strong involvement. So with the thesis put very solid foundations on which the recovery and claim the figure of the doctor and opens the door to the recovery of people closely linked with the Catalan but with ties to the regime

Intercultural education, understood as a progressive approach to transform education and to respond to discriminatory policies and practices in education, is by definition contrary to the concept of education in the nacional-catolicismo (1940s to 1960s in Spain), where the main educational goal was to underline the superiority of everything “Spanish”: Spanish people, Spanish food, Spanish language and Spanish religion, of course. Everything "Spanish" was idealized and regarded as superior. This monocultural perspective was taught both directly -by conveying it to to the children and making them repeat and assume- or indirectly. In this paper some examples of the first method taken from the children’s book El hermano de Paloma (Paloma’s Brother) will be analyzed. The second perspective is more complex and it often implies the negation of the multicultural fact and, from this perspective, the cultural differences were hidden and blurred, and, consequently, they were not allowed to be seen. This paper focuses on one of the collections of children’s books published by the Editorial Cervantes: Cuando los grandes santos, reyes, reinas, hombres, mujeres...eran niños (When the great saints, kings, queens, men, women… were children). This collection of 25 volumes, each one between 120 and 150 pages in length, was published and printed in Barcelona, from 1953 to 1962 and it was quite popular; actually, some of the titles were edited several times. Vicente Clavel’s work in Editorial Cervantes needs to be recognized, too. This publisher, writer and translator, is well known for his initiative to establish a Book Day in Spain starting in 1922. Each volume included from eight to ten characters that were used to describe childhood. This kind of books is the perfect frame to present different cultures over time and in different spaces. For example, the volume about the Great female teachers goes from Catherina of Alexandria to Gabriela Mistral, from Egypt to Chile and from the year 287 to 1889. Since one of the sub-themes of this conference deals with the use of myths and stories about people conveying a message about what is valued in each culture, some titles of this collection will be analyzed from this perspective. Do they show different cultures? How are these cultures explained? Which values are promoted? Our main hypothesis is that the cultural differences over time and the different spaces are blurred and that all the characters are described and explained from the same perspective without taking into account the obvious cultural differences. Furthermore, as each title was targeted either to boys or to girls, who were about nine or ten years old, we also study the different values transmitted to boys and girls. Finally, the paper concludes that these issues can be seen as signs of the prevailing culture in Spain in those years. Universidad de Málaga. Campus de Excelencia Internacional Andalucía Tech.

This paper describes a history of friendship and collaboration between the astronomers N. Donitch and A.A. Baikov. Information on other astronomers L.V. Okulitch and E.A. Von der Pahlen, and meteorologists V.H. Dubinskii and Nina Gouma, can also be found. Details on the expeditions aimed at observing the total solar eclipses on 30 August 1905 (organized by the Imperial Academy of Sciences in Sankt-Petersburg) and 19 June 1936 (organized by the Romanian Royal Cultural foundation) are given. The main part represents the first English translation of the paper by Baikov, published earlier in Russian and Romanian, with a new preface, annotations, and comments.

Denne artikkelen utforsker læreroppfatninger om sakprosalitteraturens potensial i møtet med elever, med et særlig fokus på biografier. Studien søker svar på følgende spørsmål: Hvilke oppfatninger om elevers møter med biografier kommer til uttrykk i intervjuer med tre norsklærere? Hvilket dannelsespotensial kan biografiene ha i undervisningssammenheng? Læreroppfatningene undersøkes gjennom en empirisk kasusstudie der tre norsklærere intervjues i forbindelse med et undervisningsopplegg om biografier. Studien er forankret i teori om hvordan læreroppfatninger er et resultat av ulike erfaringer og kunnskaper (Levin, 2015), og sjangerteoretiske perspektiver om sakprosalitteraturens kompleksitet (Sanders, 2018). Resultatene viser at lærerne er mindre opptatte av at de biografiske tekstene skal fungere som kunnskapskilde og oppøve elevene til å bli kritiske lesere. Man vektlegger i større grad den estetiske og emosjonelle erfaringa som oppstår i møtene med biografiene. Lesing av biografier skaper forskjellige lesererfaringer og leseropplevelser på bakgrunn av biografienes visuelle og verbaltekstlige variasjon og kompleksitet. Hvordan man snakker om disse erfaringene og hva som skaper dem, blir sentralt for arbeidet med sakprosalitteratur i klasserommet. Abstract This paper explores teacher perceptions of students´ encounters with nonfiction, with particular focus on biographies. The study tries to answer the following questions: What views about students' encounters with biographies are communicated in interviews with three literature teachers? What is the educational potential of biographies in a teaching context? The teachers' perceptions are examined through an empirical case study in which three Norwegian teachers are interviewed about their teaching experiences. The study is grounded in theory about how teacher perceptions are a result of different experiences and knowledge (Levin, 2015), and genre theoretical perspectives on the complexity of non-fiction literature (Sanders, 2018). The results show that the teachers are less concerned about developing critical readers through work with biographies, but seem to be more aware of the aesthetic and emotional experience that arises in these encounters. However, aesthetic and emotional experiences do not exclude developing critical awareness. The visual and textual variations in various biographies encourage different reading experiences and participation, and this is crucial in classroom discussions about nonfiction.

The paper presents the typical course of education, life journeys, and careers of professors of theology and law based on selected Viten (Vitae, biographies) from an early-modern collection of biographies by the Heidelberg historian Melchior Adam (1575–1622), who was originally from Silesia. First and foremost, it attempts to determine the degree to which professors were involved in non-university structures: theologians as priests, superintendents, etc., jurists as princes or town councillors, etc. It also examines the role played by graduation from and study at foreign schools in their future university and other careers.

Màster d'Humanitats Digitals, Facultat d'Informació i Mitjans Audiovisuals, Universitat de Barcelona. Curs: 2021-2022. Tutor: Nuria Ferran-Ferrer i Miquel Centelles Velilla., Dentro de la Viquipèdia existe un conflicto entre los usuarios que arrastra desde la década pasada en relación con la categorización por género. En el presente trabajo, abarcaremos tres objetivos. En primer lugar, realizaremos un análisis de las discusiones en torno a este debate, y a su posterior resolución, para tratar de entender el motivo que ha llevado al rechazo continuo de esta propuesta en contraste con otras Wikipedias. En segundo lugar, estudiaremos las razones por las que se mantienen o eliminan las biografías de una muestra genérica de 50 personas, mitad hombres y mitad mujeres. Y finalmente, pretendemos ofrecer una propuesta de categorización sencilla y automática para posibilitar la creación de una categoría de mujeres que ayude a la visibilización de las mujeres dentro de la enciclopedia. Con todo ello, demostraremos que la brecha de género es muy acentuada en lo que se refiere a la participación femenina, que existen muchas dificultades para la permanencia de la presencia femenina en los contenidos de Viquipèdia, y de que los argumentos que sostienen el continuo rechazo de la categoría pueden ser más cercanos a un producto ideológico más allá de las políticas de Wikipedia., Within Viquipèdia there is a conflict among users that has been going on for the past decade in relation to categorisation by gender. In this paper, we will cover three objectives. Firstly, we will carry out an analysis of the discussions surrounding this debate, and its subsequent resolution, in order to try to understand the reason that has led to the continued rejection of this proposal in contrast to other Wikipedias. Secondly, we will study the reasons for keeping or removing the biographies of a generic sample of 50 people, half men and half women. And finally, we intend to offer a simple and automatic categorisation proposal to enable the creation of a women's category that helps the visibility of women within the encyclopaedia. With all this, we will demonstrate that the gender gap is very accentuated in terms of female participation, that there are many difficulties for the permanence of the female presence in the contents of Viquipèdia, and that the arguments that sustain the continuous rejection of the category may be closer to an ideological product beyond Wikipedia's policies.

We present a short biography and brief review of contributions of professor Mirjana Vukicevic-Karabin to the development of astrophysics education at the University of Belgrade and to the research in physics of the Earth ionosphere and the Sun. The bibliography of her papers is given as well. We hope that the review of the two aspects of her work will elucidate her important role in the development of astrophysics in our country

Dans cette contribution l’on s’est proposé d’examiner la place que tiennent les « hommes illustres » du le domaine militaire dans l’Italia illustrata de Biondo Flavio. La tradition classique des viris illustribus, le renouvellement connu par ce genre au cours de l’humanisme et l’apport d’un autre ouvrage de Biondo, le Historiae, permettent de saisir et examiner les différentes façons utilisées, dans cet ouvrage, pour désigner les commandants militaires vécus au cours des xive et xve siècles. Dans le sillon de l’importante recherche d’Ottavio Clavuot, on a envisagé l’emploi des constructions rhétoriques du discours, notamment celles de la généalogie, dont Biondo s’est servi pour souligner l’importance des condottieri dans l’organisation militaire et politique et, de ce fait, pour interpréter les caractéristiques les plus importantes de son temps. The paper analyzes the theme of “illustrious men” in the military field in the Italia illustrata of Biondo Flavio, the main description of the peninsula composed in the fifteenth century. On the basis of the classical tradition de viris illustribus, of the renewal known by this genre in the humanistic era and through a comparison with another historical work by Biondo, the Historiae, are examined the methods used in the work to mention the military commanders who lived in the 14th and 15th centuries. As previously noted by O. Clavuot, some rhetorical construction methods of discourse are used in the text, in particular the genealogy model. The author used them to highlight the relevance of “condottieri” in military and political structures and, therefore, to interpret the most salient features of the contemporaneity.

Le garde des Sceaux Michel de Marillac a été arrêté lors de la crise politique dite « Journée des dupes » (novembre 1630) et il est mort emprisonné. Son ami Nicolas Lefevre de Lezeau a écrit l’histoire de sa vie avec l’objectif de camper une vie de saint et d’exemplaire grand serviteur de l’État. Mais cet ouvrage est resté manuscrit malgré deux tentatives d’édition. Cette contribution se propose d’établir l’histoire de cet échec et de tenter d’en comprendre les raisons. The Keeper of the Seals Michel de Marillac was arrested during the political crisis known as “Day of the Dupes” (november 1630) and died in prison. His friend Nicolas Lefevre de Lezeau wrote the story of his life with the objective of setting up a life as a saint and an exemplary great servant of the State. But this work remained handwritten despite two attempts at publishing. This paper aims to establish the history of this failure and to try to understand the reasons for it.

This paper examines Vicenta Arnal Yarza's (1902-1960) life and scientific contributions to electrochemistry in the late 1920s and the 1930s. In Spain, this was a time of ambitious programs to modernize and internationalize scientific research, which included the training and career promotion of some women. Vicenta Arnal's pathway shifted from the early years of her international scientific education with top scientists in the field to a domestic career devoted to improving the teaching and popularizing of chemistry under the constraints of the Franco dictatorship, which brought about a dramatic regression in gender equity., Authors acknowledge Alejandro Santos for being able to retrieve Vicenta Arnal’s scientific publications despite our limited information input, and are grateful to Josefina Perez-Arantegui (Universidad de Zaragoza) for invaluable comments and to the Alfaro-García family for the permission to publish the image in Fig. 1.

Resumen Este articulo se destila de una investigacion llevada a cabo en torno al excepcional caso de Omar, un menor infractor que se convirtio en educador de menores debido, fundamentalmente, al proceso de reforma juvenil que le impuso el sistema de justicia espanol. El foco de este escrito se centra en escudrinar algunas de las claves esenciales de aquella buena practica. Para llevar a cabo la investigacion se utilizo la metodologia biografica, utilizando el modelo de relatos cruzados. Las principales fuentes de informacion fueron: a) Omar y otros diecisiete personajes clave (la jueza del caso, el subdirector del centro de internamiento, su tutora de libertad vigilada, su madre de acogida en Espana, etc.). b) Sus expedientes en el Juzgado de Menores y en la Direccion General de Reforma Juvenil. Y c) un amplio registro fotografico, fundamentalmente, de su experiencia en el centro de internamiento. El analisis se enfoca sobre: 1) el acompanamiento sociopedagogico llevado a cabo, 2) el caracter holistico de la intervencion y 3) su longitudinalidad. Y se centra en la intervencion desarrollada por la trabajadora social del centro de internamiento, que fue la piedra angular de todo el proceso de reforma juvenil (no solo de la medida judicial de la que oficialmente formaba parte). En las conclusiones se especifica: 1) Por que el acompanamiento sociopedagogico es muy adecuado para este tipo de casos. 2) Que se puede transformar mas facilmente al individuo si se adecuan sus circunstancias. Y 3) que la interseccionalidad debe ser coordinada durante todo el proceso. Abstract This article is distilled from a research carried out around the exceptional case of Omar, a young offender who became an educator of minors mainly due to the youth rehabilitation process imposed on him by the Spanish justice system. The focus of this paper is on exploring some of the essential keys to that good practice. The biographical methodology was used to carry out the research, using the cross-account model. The main sources of information were: a) Omar and seventeen other key figures (the judge in the case, the deputy director of the detention centre, his tutor on probation, his foster mother in Spain, etc.). b) His files in the Juvenile Court and in the Juvenile Justice System. And c) a broad photographic record, fundamentally, of his experience in the detention centre. The analysis focuses on: 1) the sociopedagogical accompaniment carried out, 2) the holistic character of the intervention, and 3) its longitudinality. And it focuses on the intervention developed by the social worker at the detention centre, which was the cornerstone of the whole youth rehabilitation process (not just the order of which she was officially a part). The conclusions specify: 1) Why sociopedagogical accompaniment is very appropriate for this type of cases. 2) That the individual can be more easily transformed if his or her circumstances are appropriate. And 3) that intersectionality must be coordinated throughout the process.

Joaquín Maurín (1896-1973) era un líder marxista als anys 30. El cop d'estat franquista el va sorprendre a la Zona Nacional i els franquistes van capturarlo a Jaca quan intentava escapar cap a França. Jutjat i condemnat a 30 anys de presó, el 1946 es va beneficiar de l'indult franquista decretat un any abans. Es va exiliar als Estats Units el 1947 on ja vivia la seva família des del 1941. Als EUA, Maurín va treballar en diverses empreses fins que va crear l'American Literary Agency (ALA) el juliol de 1949, una agència de diaris que distribuïa articles escrits per ell i per altres autors a uns 35 diaris llatinoamericans de tot el continent. Elaborat amb fonts primàries obtingudes del fons anomenat Joaquin Maurin Papers, dipositat a l'Arxiu de la Institució de Hoover, a Stanford ¿correspondència, escrits, retalls de premsa, fotografies i impresos relacionats amb el comunisme i el socialisme a Espanya, la Guerra Civil espanyola i l'ALA, aquest article se centra en la «segona vida» de Maurín, quan va abandonar el marxisme i va adoptar una perspectiva política liberal progressista i democràtica i es va alinear amb la posició dels EUA davant la Guerra Freda.

Jan Ptaszycki był polskim matematykiem pracującym w Petersburgu w latach 1876-1912. W Polsce jest zapomniany, a w Rosji uważany zazwyczaj za rosyjskiego matematyka, znanego tam jako Iwan Lwowicz Ptaszycki. W rosyjskiej literaturze historyczno-matematycznej, w zależności od autora, podaje się, że Ptaszycki był rosyjskim matematykiem lub, rzadziej, polskim matematykiem, na przykład u Łokoć (2015, 2018). Ważne informacje o Ptaszyckim pochodzą z nekrologów K. A. Posse (1912) i S. Dicksteina (1912) oraz ze wspomnień I. Ja. Depmana (1960), którzy znali go osobiście. Chcemy przybliżyć współczesnemu czytelnikowi tego zapomnianego polskiego matematyka pracującego w Petersburgu. Po omówieniu jego biografii krótko omawiamy jego prace matematyczne. Na zakończenie artykułu cytujemy artykuły i książki związane z dorobkiem naukowym Ptaszyckiego oraz podajemy pełną listę prac i ksiązek, które opublikował a także listę prac, gdzie można znaleźć informacje o nim. Jan Ptaszycki was a Polish mathematician working in St. Petersburg in the period 1876–1912. In Poland, he is forgotten, and in Russia considered generally as a Russian mathematician, known there as Ivan Lvovich Ptaszycki. In Russian literature about history of mathematics, depending on the author, it is reported that Ptaszycki was a Russian mathematician or, more rarely, a Polish mathematician as, for example, in Lokot (2015, 2018). The important information about Ptaszycki comes from the obituaries of K. A. Posse (1912) and S. Dickstein (1912) and from the memoirs of I. Ja. Depman (1960), that is from people who knew him personally. We wanted to make known to the contemporary reader this forgotten Polish mathematician working in St. Petersburg. This article tries to reach his work and achievement in mathematics as well as information about his activity. After discussing his biography, we briefly discuss his mathematical work. At the end of this paper, we quote articles and books related to Ptaszycki scientific achievements and we present a full list of his published works and books, and also references where one can find information about him.

Comme d’autres chercheurs avant nous, nous avons, en travaillant sur l’histoire contemporaine du mouvement en faveur de la langue d’oc, souvent été confrontés à des données lacunaires voire totalement absentes concernant certains de ses acteurs. C’est de cette difficulté et du constat que non seulement les sources existent et sont disponibles, mais que, de plus, de nombreux chercheurs et étudiants ont été amenés à un moment ou un autre à se pencher dessus dans le cadre de leurs recherches, qu’est née l’idée d’un dictionnaire biographique des acteurs de la renaissance d’oc. C’est de cela, de la nécessité de créer un tel outil aux contraintes techniques, formelles et humaines, dont il s’agit ici. Like other researchers before us working on the contemporary history of the pro-langue d’oc movement, we have often been faced with incomplete or even totally absent data concerning some of its key protagonists. This difficulty and the fact that not only do such sources exist but that many researchers and students have at one time or another consulted them in the course of their research gave rise to the idea of compiling a biographical dictionary of all the actors who played a part in the revitalisation of the language d’oc. This paper discusses the need for such a tool and the technical, formal and human constraints associated with its development.

Este artículo pretende dar a conocer algunas aportaciones metodológicas que se hacen a la investigación biográfica. Dichas aportaciones derivan de la Historia de Vida llevada a cabo en torno al caso de Ahmed, un menor infractor que se convirtió en educador de menores tras experimentar un proceso de reforma juvenil. El artículo gira en torno a: 1) Las herramientas creadas en esta investigación para categorizar los datos de acuerdo a las principales tareas que la metodología biográfica requiere (construir la biografía y analizar la información). 2) La nueva manera que se ha desarrollado para materializar el modelo de "Relatos Cruzados", que otorga un carácter más versátil a su aplicación. 3) El proceso de síntesis seguido para definir el listado de categorías de análisis. Además de explicitar dicho proceso, se comparten diversas fundamentaciones respecto de la naturaleza, finalidad y última expresión de las mencionadas categorías. 4) Al carácter inductivo de la investigación y a los distintos procesos a los que sometieron los datos, que permitieron que el foco de investigación fuese emergiendo progresivamente y, como consecuencia, se definiese de manera muy precisa. This paper aims to share several methodological contributions to the biographical research. They derive from a Life History project developed about the life of Ahmed, a young offender who became “educator of minors” after experiencing a rehabilitation process. The research was complex in that: a) New tools to categorize data have been created, according to the task demanded: to analyse the information and build the biography. b) The crossed-narrative model could not be implemented in an orthodox manner, thus an alternative was developed to extend the model´s versatility. c) The synthesis process followed to set the list of analytical categories is shared, incorporating some foundations their nature, aims and end expression. d) The focus of the research was built very precisely as a result of the inductive procedure followed during the research

Überlebende des Holocaust zu Vorträgen an Schulen einzuladen ist - entgegen der dominanten Pathosformel des nahenden 'Verschwindens der letzten Zeitzeugen' - eine immer noch stattfindende und üblich gewordene Praxis. Die Eindrücklichkeit der persönlichen Begegnung mit Überlebenden und das Teilhaben am biografischen und zeitgeschichtlichen Bericht von Zeitzeug_ innen sollen ihren Beitrag dahingehend leisten dass "Auschwitz nicht sich wiederhole" (Adorno 1966). Der Aufsatz basiert auf einer laufenden ethnografischen Dissertationsstudie, in der Zeitzeug_innengespräche in der schulischen und außerschulischen historisch-politischen Bildungsarbeit in Österreich praxistheoretisch (z.B. Reckwitz 2003) untersucht werden. In diesem Beitrag werden nach einem knappen Einblick in das Design der Studie am Beispiel eines Falles einige Interaktionsmuster im Zuge des Gebrauchs von Artefakten in Zeitzeug_innengesprächen an Schulen beschrieben und hierbei verhandelte Verhältnisse und Legitimitäten zwischen erlebnisbezogenem und ereignisgeschichtlichem Wissen beleuchtet. (DIPF/Orig.), Dicussions about the future of Holocaust education without 'the last witnesses' increased in the last years. But inviting survivors to schools to deliver their personal testimony is still a common practice. Educators are confident, that including survivor stories in education can strongly contribute effective teaching about the Holocaust. Educational expectations are high and follow the demand of, Auschwitz never again' (Adorno 1966). The work with biographical narratives of survivors in different educational settings defines the empirical field of the ongoing ethnographic doctoral study on which this article is based on. Therefore, the social practices approach (e.g. Reckwitz 2003) is used. In this paper, I will give a short outline of my work and characterise along selected empirical material of the study, some patterns of interaction along the use of artefacts in talks with contemporary witnesses in schools and the sometimes inconsistent interplays and relations of experience based and specialised knowledge.

Our main aim is to provide a high-resolution characterisation of the Matacabras rock art shelter, located on the northern side of La Peña de los Enamorados. This is achieved through a photogrammetric topographic survey, a detailed assessment of the graphic motifs identified through the use of digital image processing and various types of physical and chemical analysis, a geo-chemical characterisation of pottery found on its surface, and a comparative stylistic analysis of its motifs. Our study suggests that Matacabras (and the site of Piedras Blancas I, located just below it), played an important role in the genesis of Menga, which perhaps makes it the most important rock art location of Spanish Late Prehistory. © 2018, This study has been funded by the project of “Nature, Society and Monumentality: High Resolution Archaeological Investigations on the Megalithic Landscape of Antequera ”(HAR2013-45149-P ) (2014–2017), sponsored within the National R&D Plan of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (Spanish Government).

Resumen: En este trabajo se sugiere, en primer lugar, la necesidad de que Maestras y Maestros de Primaria en formacion construyan un conocimiento general de la ciencia relacionado tanto con los contenidos mas estructurantes de las disciplinas implicadas como con la Historia de la ciencia desde un enfoque de genero, que les permita analizar criticamente las relaciones entre ciencia-tecnologia y genero-sociedad a lo largo de la historia y en el presente. En segundo lugar se presenta una investigacion cualitativa a partir de una propuesta didactica realizada por estudiantes de Didactica de las Ciencias en el Grado de Educacion Primaria de la Universidad de Granada sobre biografias de mujeres cientificas. Finalmente se discuten los resultados de la investigacion con el objeto de concluir con claves que nos orienten en el diseno de propuestas formativas para la ensenanza de las ciencias desde un enfoque de genero. Palabras clave : Ensenanza de las ciencias; Biografias; Genero; Historia de la ciencia; Educacion primaria. Inclusion of gender approach in teaching of sciences with biographies of female scientists Abstract: This paper is aimed, firstly, at suggesting the need for in-training Primary Education Teachers to build up general knowledge about science structuring contents as well as history of science from a gender perspective. This training in science should help students to analyse the relationships between science-technology and gender-society throughout history and at present. Secondly, a qualitative research carried out about a proposal developed by Science Didactics students of the Degree in Primary Education in the University of Granada about biographies of female scientists is described. Finally, the results of the research are presented, all leading to some key ideas on how to introduce the gender approach in the teaching of science. Keywords : Teaching of sciences, Biographies, Gender, History of science, Primary education. DOI : http://doi.org//10.25267/Rev_Eureka_ensen_divulg_cienc.2018.v15.i3.3602

[spa] La siguiente tesis doctoral titulada La obra de Rosa Regàs: la reconstrucción del mundo narrativo en el espejo de la memoria y del tiempo aborda el estudio de la vida y de la obra de la escritora contemporánea Rosa Regàs Pagés (Barcelona, 1933). Se trata de una investigación centrada en su biografía y en su narrativa completa escrita en castellano. Señalamos en este trabajo, además de la intertextualidad que se establece en su producción literaria, el vínculo que se da entre sus obras, el contexto histórico y social en el que vive la autora, y su experiencia personal. Ha sido nuestro propósito describir, caracterizar y comprender qué elementos determinan la literatura regasiana para ofrecer una valoración crítica desde una perspectiva epistemológica de acercamiento a las preocupaciones estéticas e ideológicas de la autora, que han repercutido en su manera de entender la escritura y de producirla. Destacamos su faceta profesional en el mundo de la edición a cargo de La Gaya Ciencia, comentamos sus publicaciones ‒ muy acordes con su gusto por despertar el interés y la curiosidad del público lector‒, e incluso nos detenemos en abordar cuáles fueron los autores noveles a quienes brindó la alternativa en el mundo editorial. Asimismo, analizamos su evolución de editora a escritora ‒pasando por la vertiente de traductora‒, e insistimos en la importancia de su anexión al grupo de la Gauche divine. Estudiamos cómo repercute su faceta profesional a lo largo de su trayectoria literaria que se inicia en 1988, con la publicación de Ginebra ‒un libro de viaje hecho por encargo‒, hasta su última novela, Música de cámara, premiada con el Biblioteca Breve en 2013. Examinamos toda su obra narrativa en castellano compuesta por una variedad de géneros: relatos cortos, novelas, ensayos y libros de viaje, con el afán de demostrar la trascendencia de su biografía en su literatura, y el valor que la autora otorga a la memoria tanto histórica como personal, como un poderoso elemento capaz de transformar la realidad. Su narrativa se cimienta en el bagaje personal de la escritora y en una mímesis sincrónica, ella misma o una anécdota suya quedan, en muchos casos, transfiguradas en un personaje o en una situación de su universo narrativo., [eng] The following doctoral thesis, named The work of Rosa Regàs: reconstruction of the narrative world in the mirror of memory and time (“La obra de Rosa Regàs: la reconstrucción del mundo narrativo en el espejo de la memoria y del tiempo”), addresses the life and work of the contemporary writer Rosa Regàs Pagés (Barcelona, 1933). The research focuses on her biography and her narrative written entirely in Spanish. This research shows the intertextuality in her literature, the link between her works, the social and historical context in which the writer lives, and her personal experience. The purpose of this paper is to describe, characterise and understand the elements that determine Regasian literature in order to offer a critical review from an epistemological perspective approaching the aesthetical and ideological concerns of the writer, which had an impact on her way of understanding and creating literature. We highlight her professional role in the publishing world in charge of La Gaya Ciencia; we comment her publications ‒which reflect her quest to awaken interest and curiosity‒, and we even analyse which new authors she offered the alternative to in the publishing world. We also analyse her evolution from publishing to writing –going through translation‒, and we highlight the importance of her membership in the Gauche divine. We study how her professional career affected her literary career, which began in 1988 –when she was entrusted with the task of writing Ginebra, a travel book – until her most recent, Música de cámara, which received the Biblioteca Breve award in 2013. We examine her entire repertoire of Spanish narrative, which includes a number of genres –short stories, novels, essays and travel books– to demonstrate the transcendence of her biography in her works, and the value given by the author to historical and personal memories, as a powerful element capable of transforming reality. Her narrative is founded on her personal knowledge and on a synchronic mimesis – she herself or an anecdote of hers are often transfigured into a character or a situation in her narrative universe.

El llibre, compost d’entrevistes i escrits i documentació personals, s’estructura en dues parts. La part principal consisteix en una aproximació a la seva trajectòria vital mitjançant una biografia novel·lada d’en Romuald i un apèndix documental. Hi trobarem, a més de les seves vivències personals, referències a processos i esdeveniments històrics que van marcar la seva militància política i el seu compromís social. És precisament per contextualitzar aquesta mena de situacions amb rerefons històric que hem considerat oportú introduir un altre apartat al llibre. Es tracta d’una introducció històrica, on mirarem de caracteritzar i donar claus explicatives a algunes de les referències generals més significatives incloses al relat biogràfic d’en Romuald...

El artículo trata de la compilación de biografías que editó Thomas A. S ebeok en 1966: Portraits of Linguists . A Biographical Source Book for the History of Western Linguistics, 1746 – 1963 . Esta obra es pionera en su ámbito y recoge 90 escritos biográficos sobre 72 lingüistas del comparatismo y del estru c turalismo. El artículo estudia la influencia en la historiografía narrativa de la lingüística, aquella que se nutre de fuentes biográficas (Sebeok 1966) y autobiográficas (Davis y O'Cain 1980; Koerner 1990, 1998; Swiggers 1997; Brown y Law 2002; Ertler 2007 – 2015; Timotin y Colce riu 2012; Laborda, Romera y Fernández Planas 2014) . El artículo perfila el canon que establece Sebeok. El relato canónico de Sebeok se caracteriza por un corpus tradicional , con aportaciones personales del editor y críticas relevantes de los biógrafos. El corpus está compuesto por autores masculinos que desarrollan su actividad mayoritariamente en Centroeuropa y Estados Unidos. Del conjunto de Portraits of Linguists s on objeto de atención en este artículo las biografías de R. Rask, O. Jespersen, K. Verner y L. Spitzer. Esta selección muestra la dificultad y la responsabilidad que asume el historiador al interpretar la tradición de la lingüística. “ Biogr aphical historiography in Portraits of Linguists by Thomas A. Sebeok ” . The article deals with the compilation of biographies published in 1966 by Thomas A. Sebeok: Portraits of Linguists. A Biographical Source Book for the History of Western Linguistics, 1 746 - 1963 . This work is a pioneer in its field and includes 90 biographical writings about 72 linguists from the comparativism and structuralism schools. The paper studies the influence in narrative historiography of linguistics, one that draws on biographi cal sources (Sebeok 1966) and autobiographical sources (Davis and O'Cain 1980; Koerner 1990, 1998; Swiggers 1997; Brown and Law 2002; Ertler 2007 - 2015; Timotin and Colceriu 2012; Laborda, Romera and Fernandez Planas 2014). The article outlines the canon e stablished by Sebeok. The canonical account of Sebeok is characterized by a traditional corpus, with personal contributions of the editor and relevant reviews from biographers. The corpus is composed of male authors who work mainly in Central Europe and th e United States. The article examines especially the biographies of R. Rask , O. Jespersen , K. and L. Spitzer Verner . This selection shows the difficulty and responsibility assumed by the historian to interpret the tradition of linguistics

Beyond her biographical recreations, Teresa of Jesus personality was also represented in other textual scenes. Biographical sketches of discalced Carmelites included in the chronicles of the order will incorporate references to the founding mother, too. In our paper we analyse the ingredients of the teresian portrait that was reflected in these narrations, highlighting how, besides the miracles and Teresa’s supernatural side, these texts also strongly emphasized her human and earthly dimensions. The Teresa that stands out is a woman with authority, the founder and enterprising, the politician and organizer, the woman of action and ruler, one who had an attentive and watchful eye over all the matters that affected her convents and her reforming projects; the woman who had a close relationship with the social world, who dealt with ecclesiastical and lay powers… In summary, a Teresa far beyond the established conceptions about women at that time and the roles assigned to them also sneaks into the pages of the chroniclers; even when many scholars have ignored it over time, in benefit of an image of St Teresa closer to hagiography. La figura de Teresa de Jesús, además de en sus recreaciones biográficas, se presentó y representó también en otros escenarios textuales. Las semblanzas biográficas de las carmelitas descalzas que contenían las crónicas de la orden también incorporarán referencias a la madre fundadora. Estudiamos en nuestro trabajo cuáles fueron los ingredientes del retrato teresiano que se fueron reflejando en esas narraciones, poniendo de manifiesto cómo, al lado de la dimensión «milagrosa» y de la faceta sobrenatural de Teresa, estos textos enfatizan mucho la dimensión más humana y terrenal. La Teresa que sobresale es la mujer con autoridad, la fundadora y emprendedora, la política y la organizadora, la mujer de acción y de gobierno, la de mirada atenta y vigilante a todos los asuntos que pudieran afectar a sus conventos y a sus proyectos reformistas, la mujer que se relacionaba con el resto del mundo social, que lidiaba con los poderes eclesiásticos y seculares… En definitiva, una Teresa alejada de las concepciones establecidas sobre las mujeres en aquella época y de los papeles que se les asignaban también se cuela en las páginas de los cronistas, aunque muchos de los teresianistas lo han ignorado a lo largo del tiempo en beneficio de una imagen de santa Teresa adaptada a la hagiografía.

En este artículo se estudia la presencia en Lisboa, a finales del siglo XI y principios del XII, de un reducido número de hombres de letras, que en su mayoría se acogen al patrocinio del alfaquí y ministro Muhammad b. Ibrāhīm al-Fihrī. Ibn Bassām lo menciona varias veces en la Dajīra, pues con frecuencia lo utiliza como fuente e informador de los poemas o anécdotas que recoge en su antología, además de referir las circunstancias de su muerte. Se analizan también las formas de entablar relaciones entre ellos, algunas basadas en el magisterio de los autores consagrados, de las que tenemos noticias por sus discípulos locales, el propio Ibn Bassām en algunos casos. Como ejemplo de este inicio de relación entre un discípulo en busca de maestro, se analiza, y se incluye como Apéndice, la entrevista que mantiene Ibn al-Imām de Silves (560/1164) con Bakkār b. Dāwūd al-Marwānī, señalando la postura de este asceta ante el humor y la poesía muŷūn. This paper is an analysis and a comment on the literary activity in Lisbon during the last years of 11th Century and the early years of 12th Century. The most of the authors who visited this city were sponsored by the wazīr and faqīh Muhammad b. Ibrāhīm al-Fihrī, a literary informant of Ibn Bassām as well as his patron. In this time in Lisbon, there are also some religious men whose ascetic life and poems attract some disciples who want to learn from them. The meeting between al-Imām de Silves (560/1164) and Bakkār b. Dāwūd al-Marwānī is analized highlighting his attitude of tolerance towards humor and muŷūn poetry.

El treball és una biografia àmpliament documentada sobre els tres germans Batlles i Torres-Amat, metges coenguts i liberals convençuts que van jugar un paper rellevant en la vida social de la seva època. Va ser aquesta una època especialment significativa políticament per a Catalunya i el Pais Valencià, en el context marcat per la mort de Ferran VII i el pas a formes polítiques més liberals.

Fernando Tarrida del Mármol fou un destacat anarquista en la complicada Barcelona de finals de segle xix. És un dels representants més interessants de la intel·lectualitat anarquista espanyola d'aquell període. La seva biografia ve marcada per dos aspectes: d'un costat, l'actuació com a militant i activista, i de l'altre la seva faceta d'escriptor, pensador i divulgador, sempre lligat al moviment àcrata. En aquest text ens atansem a la trajectòria de Tarrida, destacant el seu vesant cosmopolita i el paper fonamental que va tenir en les relacions dels grups anarquistes espanyols amb els seus homònims europeus., Fernando Tarrida del Mármol was a prominent anarchist who lived in the exciting Barcelona of the late 19th century and is one of the most interesting representatives of Spanish anarchist intellectuals of that period. There were two key aspects to his life: his achievements as a militant activist and his role as a writer, thinker and communicator, always related to the anarchist movement. This text provides an overview of the life of Tarrida del Mármol, emphasising his cosmopolitanism and his role in relations between the Spanish anarchist groups and their European counterparts.

This paper discusses the theme biographies for artistic and social intervention through an analysis of artistic work conducted with a group of young people from the arts education project Bando à Parte: Youth Cultures, Arts and Social Inclusion (O Teatrão, Coimbra). How do young people create a voice which may be potentially used to transform their own communities, having as a starting point their biographical path(s)? How can each of us find on biographical courses specific contributions that may interfere with change, and how may these be translated into concrete policies and actions in society? The exploration of these processes through a work of artistic creation, inspired in biographical collected materials, represents a possible contribution to reflect on the issues of memory, identity and community change.
