El lloc teatral i el seu espai escènic: artialització en William Shakespeare (c..1590-1611) : actor, empresari, dramaturg

Pensar en William Shakespeare, apropar-se a una de l'obres què més tinta han fet córrer, se'ns presenta com voler trobar una agulla en un paller. Amb tot, aquest treball de recerca a volgut discernir la dramatúrgia de Shakespeare, des de l'òptica espacial i estètica. El seu marc, a l'Anglaterra renaixentista -ss,XVI-XVII-, és: l'abundosa legislació -important l'Acta promulgada l'any 1572, per la reina Elisabet I-; la tipologia constructiva i formal del Lloc del Teatre, amb la formulació empresarial què se’n deriva; l'altre element, la participació de l'espectador implícit. Conclusivament, com l'artialització shakespeariana s'insereix, podem dir, 'dramatològicament', dins l'historiografia general del teatre.

Determinants of the omega-3 index in a Mediterranean population at increased risk for CHD.

The omega-3 index, defined as the sum of EPA and DHA in erythrocyte membranes expressed as a percentage of total fatty acids, has been proposed as both a risk marker and risk factor for CHD death. A major determinant of the omega-3 index is EPA þ DHA intake, but the impact of other dietary fatty acids has not been investigated. In a cross-sectional study on 198 subjects (102 men and 96 women, mean age 66 years) at high cardiovascular risk living in Spain, the country with low rates of cardiac death despite a high prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors, dietary data were acquired from FFQ and blood cell membrane fatty acid composition was measured by GC. The average consumption of EPA þ DHA was 0·9 g/d and the mean omega-3 index was 7·1%. In multivariate models, EPA þ DHA intake was the main predictor of the omega-3 index but explained only 12% of its variability (P,0·001). No associations with other dietary fatty acids were observed. Although the single most influential determinant of the omega-3 index measured here was the intake of EPA þ DHA, it explained little of the former"s variability; hence, the effects of other factors (genetic, dietary and lifestyle) remain to be determined. Nevertheless, the high omega-3 index could at least partially explain the paradox of low rates of fatal CHD in Spain despite a high background prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors.

Macbeth : l'aportació de William Shakespeare al pensament polític modern

Aquest treball ofereix l’estudi sobre l’aportació que va fer el dramaturg anglès del segle XVIXVII William Shakespeare en la filosofia política. El principal objectiu del treball consisteixen analitzar la seva obra teatral “Macbeth” destacant els element rellevants per la teoria política del seu període, és a dir l’època Moderna. El desenvolupament de les noves concepcions del món i de l’ordre social d’aquell moment va marcar un abans i un després enel pensament polític. En l’estudi, els aspectes polítics tractats en “Macbeth” es comparen amb les idees de Hobbes i Maquiavel per demostrar que malgrat Shakespeare mai ha sigut considerat com a un filòsof polític, les seves visions de la societat eren innovadores i sovint semblants a les visions de pensadors més il·lustres de la teoria política.

Un sant Josep Oriol de l'església parroquial de la Pobla de Segur (Lleida) atribuït a Bonaventura Planella (1772-1844)

Aquest text fa referència a una pintura a l’oli dedicada a sant Josep Oriol, conservada a l’església parroquial de la Pobla de Segur. Arran d’una anàlisi iconogràfica atenta de l’obra, dedicada a un sant beatificat a Barcelona el juny del 1807, un fet que comportà nombroses representacions de la mà dels artistes més notables, apunta la possibilitat, que pogués ser obra de Bonaventura Planella (1772-1844).
