El cine español contemporáneo (1990-2005) dedica mucha atención a la rememoración del pasado (Segunda República, la Guerra Civil, el período franquista,¿) y la realidad social (el paro, la violencia doméstica, inmigración, eutanasia,¿). Directores renombrados como Pedro Almodóvar, Alejandro Amenábar, Fernando León de Aranoa, Icíar Bollaín, o Isabel Coixet, muestran este interés dentro de sus miradas cinematográficas. La gran popularidad de este cine ha estimulado su migración en pantallas ajenas y dentro de contextos universitarios nacionales e internacionales. Este libro reúne unos veinte artículos, de investigadores americanos y europeos, que ilustran las múltiples tradiciones culturales en vigor dentro de los estudios cinematográficos, y que se enfocan al mismo tiempo en el tema central del libro: ¿Cómo se puede leer, la mirada de los autores españoles, sobre el pasado y el presente, dentro del contexto de su cine nacional?

Voces de mujeres han sido sistemáticamente silenciado o se omite por completo cuando una nación se reúne su narrativa histórica. En Miradas Transatlánticas: El periodismo literario de Elena Poniatowska y Rosa Montero, Alicia Rita Rueda-Acedo examina la relación entre la obra periodística y literaria de los dos escritores con nombre en el título, ya que utilizan una combinación distinta del periodismo y la ficción para crear nuevos espacios donde las voces y experiencias de las mujeres pueden estar situados prominente en las narraciones históricas de sus naciones. Rueda-Acedo analiza las obras de los dos escritores desde las perspectivas de género y los estudios de género, la ampliación de la noción de género de la tradición literaria y su aplicación a la producción periodística. Cada uno de los capítulos replantea y revisa el concepto de los géneros literarios con el argumento para la inclusión de la entrevista, el reportaje, el artículo, y la crónica en la categoría de literatura. En su estudio de Las siete cabritas por Poniatowska y Historias de mujeres por Montero, Rueda-Acedo argumenta con éxito que se trata de obras de homenaje a las mujeres que han influido en la historia. Al interpretar y subvertir los modelos patriarcales, los escritores llaman la atención sobre las formas en que las mujeres se han involucrado la historia mexicana, española y universal. Rueda-Acedo se centra en las características de la entrevista periodística y propone su interpretación como un texto literario. También se propone una poética de este género. El estudio de Rueda-Acedo explora cómo Poniatowska y Montero representan a las mujeres que han marcado la historia como parte de la agenda feminista de que los dos escritores han promovido en su producción periodística y literaria. El libro también hace hincapié en el papel de los dos escritores como investigadores y críticos y profundiza el debate animado sobre la relación entre la literatura y el periodismo que se discute actualmente en ambos lados del Atlántico. Women's voices routinely have been muted or omitted entirely when a nation assembles its historical narrative. In Miradas Transatlánticas: El periodismo literario de Elena Poniatowska y Rosa Montero, Alicia Rita Rueda-Acedo examines the relationship between the journalistic and literary work of the two writers named in the title as they utilize a distinct combination of journalism and fiction to create new spaces where women's voices and experiences may be situated prominently in their nations' historical narratives. Rueda-Acedo analyzes the works of the two writers from the perspectives of both gender and genre studies, extending the notion of genre from the literary tradition and applying it to journalistic production. Each of the chapters rethinks and revises the concept of literary genres by arguing for the inclusion of the interview, the reportage, the article, and the chronicle within the category of literature. In her study of Las siete cabritas by Poniatowska and Historias de mujeres by Montero, Rueda-Acedo argues successfully that these are works of homage to women who have influenced history. By interpreting and subverting patriarchal models, the writers draw attention to the ways in which women have engaged Mexican, Spanish, and Universal history. Rueda-Acedo focuses on the characteristics of the journalistic interview and proposes its interpretation as a literary text. A poetics of this genre is also proposed. Rueda-Acedo's study explores how Poniatowska and Montero represent women who have marked history as part of the feminist agenda that the two writers have promoted in their journalistic and literary production. The book also emphasizes the role of the two writers as researchers and critics and deepens the vibrant debate about the relationship between literature and journalism currently being discussed on both sides of the Atlantic.

The book presents and analyzes some of the most important issues related to the body seen as a rich and complex anthropological and semiotic object, capable of playing a decisive role in the meaning making processes of cultural and social life. The analysis presented in this book opens a whole set of new venues for the study of body performances and representations, and shows how the embodiment of social and cultural life shape our world. In all of its relationships and in itself, our body works in a sort of corposphere, which is, in turn, part of the semiosphere, defined by Lotman as a continuum occupied by different types of semiotic formations. It is from/in/by the body that all semiosis begins and ends; it is in its presence and absence, in its being and in its presentation amidst the lived situational life where we might discover and shape the senses of the world. Many different academic fields will find in this book deep insights about how the body is at the center of cultural and social processes.

Papers presented in the 19th International Colloquium of History of Art held in the city of Puebla in 2005. This was a unique multidisciplinary event around the general thematic of "gender and sex" that represented a new social attitude with notable repercussions in the generation and analysis of artistic works. The presentations were divided in 3 parts: 1) The critical representations of norms, hegemonic practices, marginal fields and deviations are becoming a more frequent (and less exceptional) aspect in art history, hence forcing a reformulation of art studies, 2) the use of anatomical representations as media, format or support to represent various meanings: political, of gender, religion, moral and family history; and 3) the analytical, curatorial and historiography postmodernism theories that study transexuality, feminism, patriarchal society and discrimination.

Cualquier persona enajenante por naturaleza tiene cabida en este nuevo experimento de vida no globalizada, sino atomizada en el instinto de la excelencia, que busca la fraternalización de la resistencia y un espacio personal para compatibilizarlo y optimizar su armazón genético, sin pretender en absoluto imponer ni jerarquizar nada, porque básicamente es un problema de lenguaje y de expresiones no generalizables, de saber observar con inteligencia intuitiva lo que nos dicen otras voces disonantes con todo derecho, aquellas que podemos definir como miradas diferidas.

This book examines the issues surrounding the problematic perpetuation of dominant sign systems through the framework of ‘semioethics’. Semioethics is concerned with using semiotics as a powerful tool to critique the status quo and move beyond the reproduction of the dominant order of communication. The aim is to present semioethics as a method to engage semiotics in an active rethink of our ability as humans to affect change.

The theory of signifying (significs), formulated and introduced by Victoria Welby for the first time in 1890s, is at the basis of much of twentieth-century linguistics, as well as in other language and communication sciences such as sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, translation theory and semiotics. Indirectly, the origins of approaches, methods and categories elaborated by analytical philosophy, Wittgenstein himself, Anglo-American speech act theory, and pragmatics are largely found with Victoria Lady Welby. Indeed, it is no exaggeration to say, in addition, that Welby is the "founding mother" of semiotics. Some of Peirce's most innovative writings - for example, those on existential graphs - are effectively letters to Lady Welby. She was an esteemed correspondent of scholars such as Bertrand Russell, Charles K. Ogden, Herbert G. Wells, Ferdinand S. C. Schiller, Michel Bréal, André Lalande, the brothers Henry and William James, and Peirce, as well as Frederik van Eeden, Mary Everst Boole, Ferdinand Tönnies, and Giovanni Vailati. Her writings directly inspired the Signific Movement in the Netherlands, important for psycholinguistics, linguistics and semantics and inaugurated by van Eeden and developed by such authors as Gerrit Mannoury. This volume, containing introductions and commentaries, presents a selection from Welby's published and unpublished writings delineating the whole course of her research through to developments with the Significs Movement in the Netherlands and still other ramifications, contemporary and subsequent to her. A selection of essays by first-generation significians contributing to the Signific Movement in the Netherlands completes the collection, testifying to the progress of significs after Welby and even independently from her. This volume contributes to the reconstruction on both the historical and theoretical levels of an important period in the history of ideas. The aim of the volume is to convey a sense of the theoretical topicality of significs and its developments, especially in semiotics, and in particular its thematization of the question of values and the connection with signs, meaning, and understanding, therefore with human verbal and nonverbal behavior, language and communication.

Victoria Welby (1837–1912) dedicated her research to the relationship between signs and values. She exchanged ideas with important exponents of the language and sign sciences, such as Charles S. Peirce and Charles S. Ogden. She examined themes she believed crucially important both in the use of signs and in reflection on signs. But Welby's research can also be understood in ideal dialogue with authors she could never have met in real life, such as Mikhail Bakhtin, Susanne Langer, and Genevieve Vaughan. Welby contends that signifying cannot be constrained to any one system, type of sign, language, field of discourse, or area of experience. On the contrary, it is ever more developed, enhanced, and rigorous, the more it develops across different fields, disciplines, and areas of experience. For example, to understand meaning, Welby evidences the advantage of translating it into another word even from the same language or resorting to metaphor to express what would otherwise be difficult to conceive. Welby aims for full awareness of the expressive potential of signifying resources. Her reflections make an important contribution to problems connected with communication, expression, interpretation, translation, and creativity.
