Albert Lewin: Pandora y el Holandés Errante. La potencialidad semiológica de un mito griego

Albert Lewin, conocido director de cine de Hollywood influenciado por el movimiento surrealista, une el mito de Pandora con la leyenda del Holandés errante para crear una historia de amor ejemplar, una historia de amor loco que va más allá de los límites de la racionalidad. Y, como que para creer en este tipo de amor no es la razón stricto sensu la que nos ha de guiar, construye un mundo de signos, un mundo semiológico complejo que este artículo ayuda a descifrar.

Albert Lewin: Pandora i l'Holandès Errant. La potencialitat semiològica d'un mite grec

Albert Lewin, conegut director de cinema de Hollywood influenciat pel moviment surrealista, conjumina el mite de Pandora amb la llegenda de l'Holandès errant per crear una història d¿amor exemplar, una història d¿amor foll que va més enllà del límits de la racionalitat. I, com que per creure en aquest tipus d'amor no es la raó stricto sensu la que ens ha de guiar, basteix tot un món de signes, un món semiològic complex que aquest article ajuda a desxifrar.

Albert Lewin. Pandora and the Flying Dutchman: the Semiologic Potential of a Greek Myth

Albert Lewin, a well-known Hollywood cinema director who is significantly influenced by the surrealistic movement, brings together the myth f Pandora and the legend of the flying Dutchman in order to create an exemplary love story, a crazy love story which goes beyond the limits of human reason. Bearing in mind, then, that if one wants to believe in this sort of love story must not be guided by human reason stricto sensu, he builds a world of signs, a semiologic world which this article aims at helping to interpret.

Kerr measurements on single-domain SrRuO3 thin films

We report on the magneto-optical measurements of an epitaxial SrRuO3 film grown on SrTiO3 (0 0 1), which previously was determined to be single domain orientated by x-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy techniques. Our experiments reveal a large Kerr rotation, which reaches a maximum value of about 0.5° at low temperature. By measuring magnetic hysteresis loops at different temperatures, we determined the temperature dependence of the Kerr rotation in the polar configuration. Values of the anisotropic magnetoresistance ~ 20% have been measured. These values are remarkably higher than those of other metallic oxides such as manganites. This striking difference can be attributed to the strong spin-orbit interaction of the Ru 4d ion in the SrRuO3 compound.
