This book was released on 2017-05-08 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El propósito que surge al plantear una investigación sobre el centro urbano madrileño es el de definir su especificidad y las diferencias planteadas en sus ritmos evolutivos con respecto a otros espacios urbanos (Ensanche y Extrarradio) durante un período en el que la ciudad dio un gran salto de escala desde un punto de vista económico, social y político. Este objetivo nos ha llevado a intentar descifrar las causas y consecuencias del proceso que transformó la fisonomía de este espacio desde un punto de vista funcional, estructural y social entre mediados del siglo XIX y el estallido de la Guerra Civil. La construcción de la Gran Vía es un tema central dentro de una investigación de estas características. Siguió a la reforma de la Puerta del Sol (1854-1862), representativa de los últimos embates de las propuestas de actuación urbanística sobre una ciudad que ya se sentía incapaz de seguir canalizando su crecimiento poblacional exclusivamente a través del casco antiguo. El proyecto respondió a unos objetivos estratégicos, sanitarios y relacionados, en términos generales, con la mejora del tráfico y la viabilidad urbana. Sentó las bases para una reforma interior de gran envergadura que nunca llegaría a producirse, de ahí que las actuaciones sobre los barrios del centro mostraran siempre un alcance mucho menor que las acometidas en otras grandes capitales europeas en lo que respecta a sus pretensiones finales. En los proyectos de Gran Vía que se presentaron desde 1862 hasta finales del siglo XIX estuvieron presentes los rasgos definitorios del modelo urbanístico diseñado y ejecutado por Georges Eugène Haussmann en las calles más irregulares, obsoletas y anti-higiénicas del París de la primera mitad del ochocientos. Así, por ejemplo, los primeros planes remarcaban la utilidad de la futura avenida para el control de motines populares, para el desarrollo de un tráfico fluido, para responder a las necesidades higienistas del cada vez...
Book Synopsis Urban Popular Culture and Entertainment by : Antje Dietze
Download or read book Urban Popular Culture and Entertainment written by Antje Dietze and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-09 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is part of an ongoing transnational turn in cultural history. Studies on the history of urban popular culture and the entertainment industries increasingly engage with the European or global circulation of genres, actors, and shows, especially during the period of massive growth and expansion of the sector from the 1870s to the 1930s. Nevertheless, a large part of this research remains focused on exchanges between Western and Central European, and North American metropolises. To provide a fuller picture of the emergence and cross-border transfer of different genres of popular culture, this volume investigates Northern, East Central, and Southern European cities and their relations with each other and the West. The authors analyze the mediating agents, transnational networks, and local responses to new forms of entertainment from Madrid to Vyborg, and from Istanbul to Reykjavík. These examples re-focus the history of urban popular culture in Europe in view of multidirectional transfers and a wider range of regional experiences. Urban Popular Culture and Entertainment will appeal to researchers and students alike interested in the history of popular culture in modern societies, particularly those studying urban centers in Europe, and their transnational and transregional connections.

Book Synopsis Methods of Comparative Law by : P. G. Monateri
Download or read book Methods of Comparative Law written by P. G. Monateri and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprising an array of distinguished contributors, this pioneering volume of original contributions explores theoretical and empirical issues in comparative law. The innovative, interpretive approach found here combines explorative scholarship and research with thoughtful, qualitative critiques of the field. The book promotes a deeper appreciation of classical theories and offers new ways to re-orient the study of legal transplants and transnational codes. Methods of Comparative Law brings to bear new thinking on topics including: the mutual relationship between space and law; the plot that structures legal narratives, identities and judicial interpretations; a strategic approach to legal decision making; and the inner potentialities of the 'comparative law and economics' approach to the field. Together, the contributors reassess the scientific understanding of comparative methodologies in the field of law in order to provide both critical insights into the traditional literature and an original overview of the most recent and purposive trends. A welcome addition to the lively field of comparative law, Methods of Comparative Law will appeal to students and scholars of law, comparative law and economics. Judges and practitioners will also find much of interest here.
Download or read book Ozu written by Donald Richie and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1977-03-15 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Substantially the book that devotees of the director have been waiting for: a full-length critical work about Ozu's life, career and working methods, buttressed with reproductions of pages from his notebooks and shooting scripts, numerous quotes from co-workers and Japanese critics, a great many stills and an unusually detailed filmography."—Sight and Sound Yasujiro Ozu, the man whom his kinsmen consider the most Japanese for all film directors, had but one major subject, the Japanese family, and but one major theme, its dissolution. The Japanese family in dissolution figures in every one of his fifty-three films. In his later pictures, the whole world exists in one family, the characters are family members rather than members of a society, and the ends of the earth seem no more distant than the outside of the house.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These memoirs trace the wild and adventurous life of Pérez Rosales from his childhood up to the 1860s. During that approximately half-century he saw and did more than a dozen ordinary men. At age eleven in Argentina he witnessed the executions of Luis and Juan Jose Carrera. From there, his activities and adventures took him on several journeys on sailing vessels around Cape Horn; to Paris, where he witnessed the July revolution of 1830; to various commercial endeavors including a distillery, the practice of medicine, and cattle smuggling; into service as an advisor to an Argentine warlord; as a miner for precious metals in the north of Chile; as participant in the California Gold Rush in 1849; as director of the government's project for German immigration and settlement in the wild south of Chile; and also as Chilean consul and immigration agent in Hamburg. Around the world, Rosales lived through many of his era's watershed moments. His exciting memoirs offer a chance to relive the rush and chaos of these times--from a much safer vantage.
