Social Networks Usage Profile: Descriptive study with students in the University of Murcia

Telematic tools are very important for our lives in the present era and moreover this idea is made more evident if we analyse young people behaviours. However, it seems that the possibilities that these tools allow subjects from a professional point of view, beyond the purely playful aspects, are still not fully exploited both by subjects, neither by educational institutions where they learn. Our work studies the uses of social media in the context of university students. In order to this we have designed a research based on quantitative methodology with a survey. We have applied a questionnaire to students in the University of Murcia. The questionnaire was answered by 487 students in the first half of 2014. The survey results confirm our hypothesis that social networks are part of the basic and habitual tools of communication between the youth of our university and eminently used for leisure purposes, and that the tools used for more academic activities are those allowing greater control of privacy.

Music therapy, in tuning at the end of life

In this article music therapy is presented as a helpful tool to support the persons (and their relatives) living at the end of their life and, also, as a non pharmacological and complementary therapy in an integral and holistic medicine. What we report here comes from the direct experience, nourished after many years of interventions and reflections in oncology and palliative care units. We’re talking about silence, music, therapy, models and techniques. We will read and feel therapeutic sessions… but above all, we’re talking about life, conscience and love.

La cultura en la traducción teatral: el caso de la versión de "Les Fourberies de Scapin" (1671) por Julio Gómez de la Serna

Las referencias culturales en las obras teatrales representan auténticos retos de traducción, puesto que afectan a la representabilidad del texto teatral y condicionan su recepción. Les Fourberies de Scapin (1671), una de las piezas más conocidas de Molière, contiene una gran cantidad de referencias culturales que afectan su mise en scène. Mediante un análisis comparativo, se ha comprobado que la traducción al español de Julio Gómez de la Serna de los años setenta, con un estilo literario y en ocasiones libre, no consigue trasladar ciertos componentes culturales que resultan empero esenciales para la lectura y representación del texto teatral.
