Characterising the late prehistoric, ‘Romano-British’ and medieval landscape, and dating the emergence of a regionally distinct agricultural system in South West Britain

REA Auditado

Palaeoenvironmental evidence for the character of lowland cultural landscapes during the last 2500 years in Britain is poorly understood, owing to a combination of an over-reliance on data from upland sequences, and because lowland mires are typically located in positions marginal to areas of settlement and agriculture. This paper presents an attempt to derive environmental evidence for this time period from a lowland context in order to characterise the key periods of change and continuity in the lowlands.

Geoquímica de las aguas termales con CO2 del SE de las Cordilleras Béticas

REA Auditado

[ES] El hidrotermalismo de las zonas alpinas peninsulares ha sido estudiado bajo diferentes
puntos de vista, como son el condicionamiento geológico, la definición y sistematización
de sus facies químicas y las temperaturas de base, entre otros, mostrando siempre su
notable desarrollo y conexión con anomalías geotérmicas de carácter regional. Una de
las cuestiones que parece revestir implicaciones genéticas importantes, así como para la
utilización de estas aguas, es su contenido en dióxido de carbono.

El cuarto de Tula. Erotismo y sexualidad en las narradoras cubanas del periodo especial

REA Auditado

Tula era el nombre familiar de Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda, por ello representa en primer lugar, el estado primigenio de la escritura de mujeres latinoamericanas, la Avellaneda profunda sobre la que se sustenta el mito y un lugar de excepción en un canon literario tradicionalmente masculinista. Esta es la primera razón por la que Tula da título a esta tesis, porque esta cubana universal representa el exilio forzado que han sido las escritoras en la historia de la literatura latinoamericana.

Discovery of slow X-ray pulsations in the high-mass X-ray binary 4U 2206+54

REA Auditado

Context. The source 4U 2206+54 is one of the most enigmatic high-mass X-ray binaries. In spite of intensive searches, X-ray pul- sations have not been detected in the time range 10−3–103 s. A cyclotron line at ∼30 keV has been suggested by various authors but never detected with significance. The stellar wind of the optical companion is abnormally slow. The orbital period, initially reported to be 9.6 days, disappeared and a new periodicity of 19.25 days emerged.

Introduction to "Law and Agonistic Politics"

The concept of the agōn, meaning struggle, comes to Anglo-American political theory from the Ancient Greeks via nineteenth-century Germany.

Gender, identity and tradition in meera syal, Nisha minhas and B.K. Mahal: Lights and Shadows in unwritten rules of conduct

REA Auditado

The objective of this thesis is the analysis of the female characters, members of
the second generation, created by Meera Syal, Nisha Minhas and B. K. Mahal from the
point of view of discourse and gender identity in a context of multiculturalism and
culture clash like the British. I propose a reading of their books as a metaphor of
conduct books following Armstrong and Tennenhouse (1987), and which point to the
construction of new models of femininity.
The reasons for having chosen these authors and works are of a different kind.

Voice and identity: a contrastive study of identity perception in voice

REA Auditado

En mi tesis doctoral he estudiado qué elementos suprasegmentales de la voz se combinan a nivel prosódico para transmitir información sobre nuestra identidad (origen, personalidad, emociones.). En la parte teórica se define el concepto de identidad, llegando a la conclusión de que identidad es un término relacional que construye un paralelismo entre dos campos, el de la individualidad y el de la colectividad.
