    Description: The Spanish colonization dramatically interrupted the autonomous development of ancient Mesoamerican culture. Nevertheless, indigenous societies learnt to live with the conquest. It was not only a time of crisis, but also an extraordinarily creative time period in which material culture reflected indigenous peoples’ varied responses and adaptations to the changing circumstances. This work presents insights into the process of cultural continuity and change in the indigenous world by focusing on pottery technology in the Nahua (Aztec) region of Central Mexico. The late pre-colonial, early colonial and present-day characteristics of this industry are explored in order to come to a renewed understanding of its long-term development.

    Description: The Maronite Library of Aleppo houses one of the most important collections of manuscripts in the Syrian Arab Republic. Comprising more than 1600 copies, the collection contains many different works on Bible, theology, philosophy, history, grammar, literature and sciences, and a great variety of other subjects. The contents of the Library have long been known to Western researchers, but were never fully catalogued. This work seeks to remedy that situation, as the last in a series of three inventories. The first volume (2008) presented a detailed record and description of the Syriac manuscripts held in the Library, and the second one (2011) did the same for those in Karshuni. Following the model established by those two previous publications, this book presents the Arabic manuscripts of the collection. The author offers a short, concise description of each copy, including title or titles, names of the author and copyist, place and date of the copy, and any formal features useful in the proper identification of the manuscripts. This edition also includes 50 images, and full indices of titles, personal names and places.

    Description: Feminicide has become a problem of general interest due to its high impact on the Colombian population; in this sense, this phenomenon was studied to characterize it in the departments of Huila and Tolima, which is why for the researchers it is essential to make this problem visible, pointing out the conditions framing violence against women from this macho culture that prevails in the region and country. The topic is of special interest since a review of press articles, epidemiological reports, local statements, and research on femicide in the two departments was carried out, seeking to make this phenomenon more visible to show the country’s reality so that it can be reported on. The results show that there is no research on the subject, which makes it possible to initiate a database with studies on femicide. Similarly, the National Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences (2016) considers that the data described on homicide in 2015 and in previous years have decreased in magnitude over the years. The analysis of the variables realizes that the risk factors triggering the violent events that determine homicide have not been neutralized, reduced, or controlled, considering that public policy on security and citizen coexistence has been insufficient.

    Description: El Feminicidio se ha convertido en un problema de interés general por su alta afectación a la población colombiana, en tal sentido se estudió este fenómeno para caracterizarlo en los departamentos del Huila y Tolima, es por esta razón que para las investigadoras resulta fundamental visibilizar esta problemática, señalando las condiciones que enmarcan la violencia contra la mujer desde esta cultura machista que impera en la región y en el país. El tema reviste especial interés toda vez que se realizó una revisión de artículos de prensa, informes epidemiológicos, pronunciamientos locales e investigaciones frente al feminicio en los dos departamentos, buscando visibilizar con mayor fuerza este fenómeno a fin de mostrar la realidad al país para que se informe sobre éste. Los resultados evidencian la no existencia de investigaciones al respecto, lo que permite iniciar una base de datos con estudios acerca del feminicidio. De igual forma, el Instituto Nacional de Medicina Legal (2016) considera que los datos descritos sobre el homicidio en el año 2015 y en años anteriores han disminuido en magnitud año tras año, el análisis de las variables da cuenta que los factores de riesgo que desencadenan los hechos violentos que determinan el homicidio no han sido neutralizados, reducidos o controlados, considerando que política pública de seguridad y convivencia ciudadana ha sido insuficiente.

    Description: The World Health Organization -WHO- (2016, p.1) notes that, "Annually, more than 800,000 people take their own lives and many more attempt suicide. Each suicide is a tragedy that affects families, communities, and countries and has lasting effects for those close to the suicidal person." Suicidal behavior ranges from ideation in its different expressions, through threats, gestures and attempts, to the suicide itself. The presence of any of these indicators (ideation, threats, gestures and attempts) should be considered as a sign of high risk in the individual presenting them. The relationship between suicide and mental disorders is quite close, however, it does not mean that those who do not suffer from a mental disorder are exempt from this suicidal behavior, since there have been cases that occur impulsively as a response to a crisis that affects the ability to cope with the difficulties of life, such as economic problems, the breakup of sentimental or family relationships, or chronic pain and illness.

    Description: La Organización Mundial de la Salud -OMS- (2016, p.1) señala que, "Anualmente, más de 800.000 personas se quitan la vida y muchas más intentan suicidarse. Cada suicidio es una tragedia que afecta a familias, comunidades y países y tiene efectos duraderos para las personas cercanas al suicida." El comportamiento suicida abarca desde la ideación en sus diferentes expresiones, pasando por las amenazas, los gestos y los intentos, hasta el suicidio propiamente dicho. La presencia de cualquiera de estos indicadores (ideas, amenazas, gestos e intentos) debe considerarse como un signo de alto riesgo en el individuo que los presenta. La relación entre el suicidio y los trastornos mentales es bastante estrecha, sin embargo, no significa que quienes no padecen un trastorno mental estén exentos de esta conducta suicida, ya que se han dado casos que se producen de forma impulsiva como respuesta a una crisis que afecta a la capacidad de afrontar las dificultades de la vida, como los problemas económicos, la ruptura de relaciones sentimentales o familiares, o los dolores y enfermedades crónicas.

    Description: The phrase "if you see someone alive, tell them the same", left her scarred. Jenny could not imagine seeing her comrades dead, those with whom she had shared part of her life. The lieutenants had died and several of their comrades had fallen with them. Jenny and Maritza ran as they had never run before. They didn't care about anything. "But this image will never be erased from my mind: in the middle of the run we made, Yuli, one of our youngest comrades, only eight years old, was coming up with her arm shattered and begging not to be left to die. But she didn't even finish these words when one of those guerrilla sons of bitches shot her in the back. Maritza and I were paralyzed; there was nothing left of the race we had been running, only the mere agitation of breathing. I thought, then, that my moment had come. Those were the longest seconds of my life. All I could think about was my mother, how she would be, if she would have found out what was happening, because in a small town everything is known" (Fragment of a chronicle).
    Description: La frase “si ven a alguien vivo díganle lo mismo”, la dejó marcada. Jenny no se imaginaba ver muertos a sus compañeros, aquellos con los que había compartido parte de su vida. Los tenientes habían muerto y varios de sus compañeros habían caído junto a ellos. Jenny y Maritza corrieron como nunca lo habían hecho. No les importaba nada. “Pero esta imagen nunca se me va a borrar de la mente: en medio de la carrera que echamos, Yuli, una de nuestras compañeras más pequeñas, de tan sólo ocho añitos, venía acercándose con el brazo destruido y suplicando que no la dejaran morir. Pero ni siquiera alcanzó a terminar de pronunciar estas palabras cuando un hijueputa de esos guerrilleros le dio un tiro por la espalda. Maritza y yo nos quedamos paralizadas; de la carrera que traíamos ya no quedaba nada, sólo el mero agite de la respiración. Pensé, entonces, que me había llegado el momento. Fueron esos los segundos más largos de mi vida. Sólo podía pensar en mi mamá, en cómo estaría, en si ya se habría enterado de lo que estaba pasando, pues en pueblo chiquito todo se sabe” (Fragmento de una crónica).

    Description: Toute une série de demandes d'asile sont traitées en Suisse par le refus sommaire et la décision de renvoi du territoire qu'autorise la clause dite de « non-entrée en matière » (NEM). Or, en agissant de la sorte, les autorités se voient confrontées à un nouveau problème : comment inciter des personnes à partir, alors qu'elles ne peuvent ou ne veulent pas quitter le pays ? Dès avril 2004, la stratégie appliquée a été de retirer le soutien financier dont bénéficiaient jusque-là ces requérant-e-s. Cette décision constitue un exemple abouti de politique de dissuasion, dont l'objectif est de susciter les départs volontaires par le biais d'une dégradation des conditions de vie des personnes concernées. À travers les regards croisés des acteurs impliqués - migrant-e-s, représentant-e-s des autorités et du monde associatif, professionnel-le-s du social et de la santé - La construction de l'invisibilité met au jour les contradictions et les effets pervers de cette politique et en révèle les retombées négatives. L'ouvrage analyse en particulier les mécanismes par lesquels les personnes à qui l'asile a été refusé échappent, en fin de compte, à tout contrôle officiel et sortent des statistiques, tout en demeurant sur le territoire. Le bilan de la suppression de l'aide sociale aux personnes frappées de NEM revêt une grande actualité face à l'émergence du phénomène d'invisibilité comme conséquence directe des politiques d'asile restrictives qu'adoptent de plus en plus les pays occidentaux.

    Description: The underlying theme of Three Centuries of Greek Culture under the Roman Empire is the idea that, under Roman rule, Greek culture was still alive and dynamic and continued to exert a degree of cultural domination, either real or apparent. So, we hope to analyse the meanings of concepts such as “Greek” or “Greece” in the Empire. Are we right to assume that there was a clear opposition between Greek and Roman? Or would it be more accurate to speak of a “Graeco-Roman world”? It would certainly be possible to make a list of “elements of identity”, on both sides —Greek and Roman—, but, in this case, where should the borders between identity and community be placed? Three Centuries of Greek Culture under the Roman Empire presents several approaches to the period between the second and fourth centuries AD from a variety of angles, perspectives and disciplines. Until now, this time has usually been considered to be the junction of the decline between the classical world and the emergence of the medieval world; however, this book establishes a basis for considering the Imperial period as a specific stage in cultural, historical and social development with a distinct personality of its own.

    Description: The 43rd UID conference, held in Genova, takes up the theme of ‘Dialogues’ as practice and debate on many fundamental topics in our social life, especially in these complex and not yet resolved times. The city of Genova offers the opportunity to ponder on the value of comparison and on the possibilities for the community, naturally focused on the aspects that concern us, as professors, researchers, disseminators of knowledge, or on all the possibile meanings of the discipline of representation and its dialogue with ‘others’, which we have broadly catalogued in three macro areas: History, Semiotics, Science / Technology. Therefore, “dialogue” as a profitable exchange based on a common language, without which it is impossible to comprehend and understand one another; and the graphic sign that connotes the conference is the precise transcription of this concept: the title ‘translated’ into signs, derived from the visual alphabet designed for the visual identity of the UID since 2017. There are many topics which refer to three macro sessions: - Witnessing (signs and history) - Communicating (signs and semiotics) - Experimenting (signs and sciences) Thanks to the different points of view, an exceptional resource of our disciplinary area, we want to try to outline the prevailing theoretical-operational synergies, the collaborative lines of an instrumental nature, the recent updates of the repertoires of images that attest and nourish the relations among representation, history, semiotics, sciences.
