La caverna de Josep Palau i Fabre (1952-1969): teatre versus al·legoria filosòfica per a representar i impedir el final tràgic i fosc del lluminós art de pensar.

What is the use of performing the myth of the cave from book VII of the Republic by Plato? Josep Palau i Fabre, considers that, in Plato's dialogues, the speakers are mere instruments at the service of his dialectical goal. The aim of this article is to show how, by turning the myth into a tragedy and also by relying on Heraclitus's conflict or war of opposites, the playwright succeeds in favoring a sort of thought which is not one-sided or univocal. On the contrary, in Palau i Fabre's La Caverna, the tragic hero, that is, the released prisoner transformed by the light of Reality and finally killed by his "cavemates" -after having been imprisoned again and having tried to rescue them from their ignorance or shadows-, still leaves to them his powerful experience of the agonistikos thought, which might bear fruit in their life to come.

Los Libros de Artista-Arte de Josep Guinovart

Este artículo pretende analizar y etiquetar la obra producida por Josep Guinovart (1927-2007), a partir de Federico García Lorca, Joan Salvat-Papasseit, Salvador Espriu, José Hierro y Ramón Guillem, dentro del formato"Libro-Arte." Unas veces la obra es el resultado de un esfuerzo en tándem, otras es el testimonio visual y poético de un mismo sentir. En cualquiera de los casos veremos como la creación artística de uno potencia y enriquece la del otro.

The cave (La caverna -1952-1969) by Josep Palau i Fabre: theatre versus philosophical allegory in order both to perform and stop the tragic and dark end of the bright art of thinking

What is the use of representing in performance the image of the cave from book VII of Plato’s Republic? Josep Palau i Fabre considers that in Plato’s dialogues the speakers are mere instruments at the service of his dialectical purpose. The aim of this article is to show how, by turning the myth into a tragedy and relying on Heraclitus’s conflict or war of opposites, the playwright succeeds in favouring a sort of thought which is not one-sided or univocal. On the contrary, in Palau i Fabre’s La Caverna, the tragic hero, the released prisoner transformed by the light of Reality and finally killed by his “cavemates” –after having been imprisoned again and having tried to rescue them from their ignorance or shadows– still leaves them his powerful experience of the agonistikós thought, which might bear fruit in their life to come.

El tracista fra Josep de la Concepció: revisió historiogràfica i noves atribucions

Fra Josep de la Concepció, membre de la congregació de carmelitans descalços, va ser un dels més qualificats arquitectes amb què comptà el Principat en el segle XVII. L"interès de la seva figura es troba sobretot en el fet que la seva activitat no es va circumscriure simplement a les construccions impulsades per l"orde al qual pertanyia, sinó que s"estengué a àmbits tan diversos com els de la confecció de traces per a catedrals, esglésies parroquials, edificis civils, retaules i altres obres de naturalesa diversa, que mostren en conjunt el gran talent d"aquest artífex

Revistes del fons americà de la Biblioteca Josep M. Figueras

Revistes del fons americà de la Biblioteca Josep M. Figueras és la catalogació, feta per Sandra Basurre i Fuensanta Marmolejo, de les revistes que, provinentsde diverses donacions, formen part del fons americanista «sens dubte més nodrit i important de l'estat espanyol en el període comprès entre la primeria de segle i els anys quaranta», en paraules de Pere Pi Sunyer. El Centre d'Estudis d'HistòriaContemporània - Biblioteca Josep M. Figueras s'ha dedicat, d'ençà de l'any 1967, en què fou creat, a una tasca de conservació i sistematització dels testimonis documentals de la Guerra Civil i, més en general, de la història contemporània del'estat espanyol, amb especial referència als de tema català. Així, doncs, a més de ser un dels fons més considerables sobre catalanisme, Guerra Civil i política contemporània, la seva riquesa de material historiogràfic és completada per aquest fons americà.

Combined intermittent hypoxia and surface muscle electrostimulation as a method to increase peripheral blood progenitor cell concentration.

Background: Our goal was to determine whether short-term intermittent hypoxia exposure, at a level well tolerated by healthy humans and previously shown by our group to increase EPO and erythropoiesis, could mobilizehematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and increase their presence in peripheral circulation. Methods: Four healthy male subjects were subjected to three different protocols: one with only a hypoxic stimulus (OH), another with a hypoxic stimulus plus muscle electrostimulation (HME) and the third with only muscle electrostimulation (OME). Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia exposureconsisted of only three sessions of three hours at barometric pressure 540 hPa (equivalent to an altitude of 5000 m) for three consecutive days, whereas muscular electrostimulation was performed in two separate periods of 25 min in each session. Blood samples were obtained from an antecubital vein on three consecutive days immediately before the experiment and 24 h, 48 h, 4 days and 7 days after the last day of hypoxic exposure. Results: There was a clear increase in the number of circulating CD34+ cells after combined hypobaric hypoxia and muscular electrostimulation. This response was not observed after the isolated application of the same stimuli. Conclusion: Our results open a new application field for hypobaric systems as a way to increase efficiency in peripheral HSC collection.

Análisis de la comunicación verbal y no verbal de Josep Guardiola y su influencia pública

El treball que es presenta a continuació és una anàlisi sobre la comunicació del ex entrenador del FC Barcelona, Josep Guardiola, i la forma en com s'expressa i utilitza el seu discurs per impactar a tots els seus públics. Partint del seu discurs comunicatiu com a base del treball, analitzarem també el què i el com de la seva comunicació, la seva actitud amagada darrere les seves paraules, com interactua amb els seus interlocutors o el reflex de les seves expressions corporals. Descobrirem per què és actualment un dels màxims referents quan parlem de comunicació i influència en el mon del esport. Comprovarem per què la figura del tècnic ha aconseguit la notorietat que té i ha arribat al referent comunicatiu actual.
