The first chronicle of Miguel Hernandez: The New Journalism (1936-1939)

This paper presents and analyzes the first literary-journalistic chronicle writen and published by Miguel Hernández: “Defensa de Madrid. Madrid y las ciudades de Retaguardia”, during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). This chronicle is the first one of a series establishing a new and personal type of journalism: literary chronicles –poetical and political-. Miguel Hernandez published his masterpieces in different newspapers as a war reporter, with his own name and with a pen-name, playing roles of director and political commissar in different newspapers in the war-trenches. Thematically, this first article shows his personal and political engagement, as well as his desire and strategy to protect the capital city of Spain: Madrid. Methodologically, the analysis is an approached to linguistics in social sciences, which presents some of the personal characteristics and style of the chronist Miguel Hernández. Thus, it becomes patent that the so-called New Journalism (narrative and literary), which flourished in the 70s, had already been deeply and efficiently practiced by Miguel Hernández 40 years before. That is the reason why Miguel Hernández deserves to be added to the well-known collective of chronicle writers that have already been rescued to this moment. His literary style and quality are installing him in a outstanding position as well as pioneer of the genre nowadays known as New Journalism that in his case, it is politically engaged

Dorothy Rungeling fonds, 1887-2013, n.d.

Dorothy Rungeling was born in 1911 and raised in Fenwick, Ontario, by her adopted mother, Ethelwyn Wetherald. After graduating high school, she attended Fort Erie business College. She worked briefly in Toronto and then Hamilton, but eventually took a job with Brown Brothers’ Nursery in Pelham to be closer to home. Dorothy pursued many interests, learning to play the violin, saxophone and clarinet. She met her husband Charles at a local dance where she was playing. In 1939, they opened an automobile and farm machinery business in Welland. In their spare time, they were active in skeet and trap shooting, for which Dorothy won many trophies. In the early 1940s, Dorothy developed a passion for horses, training and showing them in addition to teaching riding at the Welland Riding Club, as well as judging at horse shows. By the late 1940s her interest in horses was waning, but she soon after discovered and pursued a new interest: flying. She joined the Welland Flying Club, obtained a flying licence, and in 1949 purchased her first plane. She proceeded to obtain a Commercial Pilot Licence in 1951, an Instructor’s Licence in 1953, and a Senior Commercial Licence in 1954. She participated in many air races in the 1950s, including the All Women’s International Air Races, the Women’s Transcontinental Air Races, and the Canadian Governor-General’s Cup Air Race. Some of the most notable races were the 1954 International Air Race, where Dorothy met with President Batista of Cuba, and the Governor-General’s Cup Air Race, where she won 1st place in 1953 and 1956 (and was the only woman competing). In 1958, she was also the first Canadian woman to solo pilot a helicopter. That same year she obtained her Airline Transport Licence. She also wrote several articles on aviation, contributing to publications such as Canadian Aviation and Air Facts, a U.S. aviation magazine. In addition to these articles, Dorothy authored several books about her life, as well as a selection of poems and articles by Ethelwyn Wetherald. As planes became more expensive, Dorothy spent less time flying, instead pursuing an interest in sailing. She and her husband bought a sailboat and became members of the Niagara-on-the-Lake Sailing Club. In 2003, Dorothy was awarded the Order of Canada for her accomplishments. She also wrote a regular column for the Voice of Pelham in 2012-2013, called A Century in Pelham. Dorothy celebrated her 100th birthday in 2011, and remains an active member of the community.

Tourisme et colonisation en Indochine 1898-1939

Comment le tourisme s’est-il développé dans un territoire en pleine expansion coloniale ? Comment tourisme et colonisation se sont-ils conjugués ? Quel lien peut-on établir entre ces deux dynamiques ? C’est ce à quoi cette thèse tente de répondre en démontrant l’instrumentalisation du tourisme par les politiques coloniales. Elle se divise en sept chapitres abordant successivement le transfert des pratiques touristiques de l’Europe à l’Indochine, leurs implantations, leurs intégrations aux politiques de mise en valeur des années 1920, les conséquences spatiales de leurs implantations (construction de voies de communication et d’hébergements hôteliers) et la communication instaurée par l’Etat pour promouvoir l’Indochine comme une destination touristique auprès des Indochinois comme des touristes étrangers.

A Novel Isoform of the Hepatic Antimicrobial Peptide, Hepcidin (Hepc-CB1), from a Deep-Sea Fish, the Spinyjaw Greeneye Chlorophthalmus bicornis (Norman, 1939): Molecular Characterisation and Phylogeny

Hepcidin is cysteine-rich short peptide of innate immune system of fishes, equipped to perform prevention and proliferation of invading pathogens like bacteria and viruses by limiting iron availability and activating intracellular cascades. Hepcidins are diverse in teleost fishes, due to the varied aquatic environments including exposure to pathogens, oxygenation and iron concentration. In the present study, we report a 87-amino acid (aa) preprohepcidin (Hepc-CB1) with a signal peptide of 24 aa, a prodomain of 39 aa and a bioactive mature peptide of 24 aa from the gill mRNA transcripts of the deep-sea fish spinyjaw greeneye, Chlorophthalmus bicornis. Molecular characterisation and phylogenetic analysis categorised the peptide to HAMP2-like group with a mature peptide of 2.53 kDa; a net positive charge (?3) and capacity to form b-hairpin-like structure configured by 8 conserved cysteines. The present work provides new insight into the mass gene duplication events and adaptive evolution of hepcidin isoforms with respect to environmental influences and positive Darwinian selection. This work reports a novel hepcidin isoform under the group HAMP2 from a nonacanthopterygian deep-sea fish, C. bicornis

Historia de las Escuelas Normales de Málaga 1846-1939 : unas instituciones para la formación de los maestros y maestras.

Las Escuelas de Magisterio a través de su evolución histórica e insertas en su contexto ideológico y político. El profesorado es visto como transmisor de la ideología de cada época. Realiza un análisis de la Escuela de Magisterio femenina y la compara con la masculina. División del estudio en etapas correspondientes a los momentos de cambio de la legislación educativa y a la apertura y cierre de estas escuelas. Las etapas son: 1846-1859, 1859-1868, 1868-1939. Describe el contexto político-social de cada etapa y la legislación y leyes vigentes. Documentos de archivo de las Escuelas Normales de Málaga obtenidos en archivos de Málaga, Granada, Madrid y diferentes bibliotecas. Estudio histórico-ideológico previo a las modificaciones de la normativa legal vigente. Acercamiento a elementos humanos a través de documentos y de testimonios. Integración de la Normal de Málaga en la realidad político-social y reflejo por tanto de la situación española. Paralelismo entre las Escuelas Normales de maestras y maestros. Ambas cuentan con una situación económica, administrativa y material deplorable, así como deficientes locales. Difícil trayectoria por los cambios de Legislación y los cierres y aperturas de las Escuelas. Sin embargo van a tener una consideración social buena y un profesorado dedicado, aunque las consideraciones de selección, salarios y caciquismo imperante no les sean propicias. Realizaron muy dignamente la misión para la que habían sido creados. Fuente de cultura para su entorno social. Destaca la creación del Centro pedagógico gratuito destinado a la formación de jóvenes y maestros.

Gestaci??n, dotaci??n y expurgo de las bibliotecas escolares en Espa??a 1869-1939

En este trabajo se aborda el origen y desarrollo de las bibliotecas escolares en Espa??a. Se analizan las diversas modalidades de biblioteca escolar desde la aparici??n de este t??rmino, en 1849, hasta el periodo de la Segunda Rep??blica y la Guerra Civil. Para ello se hace un recorrido hist??rico por la legislaci??n del siglo XIX y del primer tercio del XX. A lo largo del XIX, se atisba la preocupaci??n por fundar y fomentar bibliotecas, pero no ser?? hasta el primer tercio del siglo XX, cuando se pueda hablar de modo pertinente del nacimiento de la biblioteca escolar. La Guerra Civil y las dr??sticas medidas adoptadas por el franquismo truncaron el breve impulso dado por el gobierno republicano a las bibliotecas escolares. Lo sucedido durante la guerra (destrucci??n, expurgo y prohibici??n de obras) ha impedido continuar construyendo sobre los logros alcanzados y ha obligado a partir de cero y a que a??n hoy sea necesario definir el modelo de biblioteca escolar y plantear planes especiales para conseguirlas.
