Cuando se habla sobre la posición de Nietzsche sobre la moral, casi de una manera espontánea se asocia con una actitud destructiva de los valores y de la moralidad, que tienen como paradigma y referente la civilizacion occidental y, sobre todo, el cristianismo. Sin embargo, no se trata de una critica destructiva simplemente, sino de algo que va mucho mas alla. Nietzsche niega, de entrada, el valor de todas esas categorias que forman el entramado de lo que el llama la mitologia filosofica, con las que la filosofia dogmatica construyo solidos edificios conceptuales y linguisticos, en los que encontraron seguridad y respuestas firmes los filosofos de la modernidad. A primera vista, esta manera tan radical de plantearse el problema filosofico del conocimiento, en el que se augura la muerte del sujeto, nos puede ofrecer ya un contexto adecuado para comprender a su vez su interpretacion o perspectiva de la moral.

In the companion volume of this series, Men of Action, theattempt was made to give the essential facts of American history bysketching in broad outline the men who made that historythediscoverers, pioneers, presidents, statesmen, soldiers, and sailorsand describing the part which each of them played.It was almost like watching a great building grow under the handsof the workmen, this one adding a stone and that one addinganother; but there was one great difference. For a building, the plansare made carefully beforehand, worked out to the smallest detail,and followed to the letter, so that every stone goes exactly where itbelongs, and the work of all the men fits together into a completeand perfect whole. But when America was started, no one had morethan the vaguest idea of what the finished result was to be; indeed,many questioned whether any enduring structure could be reared ona foundation such as ours. So there was much useless labor, oneworkman tearing down what another had built, and only a few ofthem working with any clear vision of the future.

America First was the central thought in President Wilsons addressto the Daughters of the American Revolution on the twenty-fifthanniversary of their organizationtheir Silver JubileeinWashington, D. C., October 11, 1915. The president declared in thisaddress that all citizens should make it plain whether theirsympathies for foreign countries come before their love of the UnitedStates, or whether they are for America first, last, and all the time. Heasserted, also, that our people need all of their patriotism in thisconfusion of tongues in which we find ourselves over the Europeanwar.The press throughout the country has taken up the thought of thePresident and, seconded by the efforts of the Bureau of Education,has done loyal work in making America First our national slogan.This is all good so far as it goesespecially among the adultpopulation, many of whom must be educated, if educated at all, onthe run. But the rising generation, both native-born and foreign, toget the full meaning of this slogan in its far-reaching significance,must have time for study and reflection along patriotic lines. Theremust be the right material on which the American youth may settletheir thoughts for a definite end in patriotism if our country is tohave a new birth of freedom and if this government of the people,by the people, and for the people is not to perish from the earth.The prime and vital service of amalgamating into one homogeneousbody the children alike of those who are born here and of those whocome here from so many different lands must be rendered thisRepublic by the school teachers of America.The purpose of this book is to furnish the teachers and pupils of ourcountry, material with which the idea of true Americanism may bedeveloped until America First shall become the slogan of everyman, woman, and child in the United States.

Uber die Entdeckung von Licht an den dunkelsten OrtenAm 30. April 1942 gelangt der 21-jahrige Pole Joe Rubinstein zusammen mit Hunderten anderen deportierten Juden nach Auschwitz/Birkenau. Er ist ein junger Mann unter vielen. Eine bloe Nummer in den Augen seiner Warter ein Mensch, dem man seine Wurde schon auf dem Transport im Viehwaggon abgesprochen hat. Als Nr. 34207 uberlebt Joe wie durch ein Wunder zwei Jahre lang den verbrecherischen Horror des monstrosen Konzentrationslagers. Und er verliert seine Hoffnung auch dann nicht, als er in die anderen beruchtigten Nazi-Lager Buchenwald, Ohrdruf und Theresienstadt gebracht wird und dort schreckliche Misshandlungen erlebt. Denn in Joe ist eine Kraft, die auch das grote Grauen nicht zerstoren kann: Sein Glaube an Gott, die Zuflucht im Gebet und die Liebe zu den Menschen, die er zurucklassen musste, geben ihm Hoffnung. Als im Mai 1945 die Sowjetarmee vorruckt, verlasst Joe Rubinstein Theresienstadt. Er ist am Ende seiner Krafte und traumatisiert, aber er ist frei. Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg baut Joe sich in Amerika eine Karriere als exklusiver Schuh-Designer auf, grundet mit seiner deutsch-polnischen Frau eine eigene Familie, hat Enkel und Urenkel und beeindruckt bis heute seine Mitmenschen mit seinem unerschutterlichen Glauben an einen guten und liebevollen Gott. Joes Geschichte hat noch niemanden unberuhrt zuruckgelassen. Er hat sie sich im Alter von uber 90 Jahren von der Seele erzahlt, nachdem er 70 Jahre lang uber alles Erlebte geschwiegen hatte.

The study of ancient curse tablets (defixiones or defixionum tabellae) throughout the twentieth century was based almost exclusively on the texts they contained, leaving aside, as less interesting, the analysis of the materiality of the magical artifacts on which the texts were written. The curse tablets, which were inscribed and subsequently deposited during rituals for aggressive purposes, present important material characteristics and states of preservation that deserve to be part of the analysis to which they are normally subjected. This volume contains essays on important aspects related to the materiality of lead tablets: conservation and restoration, multispectral photography, computational image processing, and paleographic analysis. The material approach to the study of the tablets in recent years is put in context in an epilogue.

Recipient of the Jo Anne Stolaroff Cotsen Prize During the Late Intermediate period (AD 1100-1470), the lower Canete Valley of Peru was controlled by the walled Kingdom of Huarco. While inland sites produced irrigated crops, the seaside community of Cerro Azul, 130 km south of Lima, produced fish for the rest of the kingdom. Cerro Azuls noble families lived in large, multipurpose compounds with tapia walls. Their pottery had its strongest ties with valleys to the south, such as Chincha and Ica. During the course of excavation, the University of Michigan Project excavated two tapia buildings in their entirety, saving every sherd from every room, walled work area, feature, and midden. This remarkable volume is the final site report on the architecture and pottery of Late Intermediate Cerro Azul.

Il Secondo conflitto mondiale rappresento una guerra di inaudita ferocia in grado di produrre perdite e distruzioni senza eguali. In quanto guerra totale, non solo non risparmio da morte e sofferenze le popolazioni civili tra le quali, anzi, fece piu vittime che tra i combattenti ma di fatto fu in grado di colpire in profondita ogni angolo del vecchio continente.Anche in Italia, oltre ai contesti urbani, ne furono toccate pure le campagne, e ogni comunita rurale ebbe il proprio carico di morte e sofferenze.La storia di tre comuni della Valdisieve, nella provincia fiorentina, permette di cogliere il crescente impatto che, sin dal momento della discesa in guerra dellItalia fascista nel giugno 1940, il conflitto assunse in periferia.Nonostante le reticenze e le falsita della propaganda fascista, anche in quel contesto lemergenza bellica rese evidente limpreparazione del Paese alla guerra, mettendo in luce lincapacita del regime fascista di gestire le molte criticita sociali, economiche, alimentari e sanitarie connesse allo sforzo bellico e dando ulteriore prova del suo carattere autoritario, oppressivo e ingiusto.Lavvio, dopo l8 settembre 1943, delloccupazione nazifascista e il successivo sopraggiungere in novembre dei distruttivi bombardamenti aerei alleati determinarono anche per la Valdisieve un tragico momento di svolta, segnato dal fenomeno dello sfollamento delle popolazioni e dal dilagare sui civili delle violenze degli occupanti.Larrivo del fronte di guerra nellestate del 1944, con il suo strascico ulteriore di morte e sofferenze, e la conseguente liberazione del territorio lasciarono alla Valdisieve una difficile eredita che sarebbe stato compito delle organizzazioni antifasciste locali raccogliere e ricomporre col rinnovato spirito di liberta e giustizia sancito dallesperienza resistenziale e base della futura Italia repubblicana.

The site of Deir el-Medina is unique in its particularly well-preserved archaeological remains, which represent an exceptional ensemble in Egypt (consisting of a village, a necropolis and a temple), and in the rich documentation that it has delivered across the millennia. The inhabitants of Deir el-Medina--artists as well as craftsmen--dug and decorated the hypogea of the sovereigns in the Valley of the Kings and Queens. They did not restrict the use of their talents to the only benefit of the sovereigns, but decorated, or had decorated by the most skilled amongst them, their own tombs and were buried with hundreds of cult objects and grave goods. The scribes kept archives, which constitute an incredible wealth of information for the history of the New Kingdom and the functioning of the royal sites. They also had literary interests, and some of them established libraries, which are considered among the richest of those that have survived. Walking around the site of Deir el-Medina and studying the paintings that adorn the walls of the rock tombs, the visitor will get to know the spirit of its occupants, their earthly ambitions, the religious and funerary universe of their conception of the afterlife and also the feasts of the multiple deities who composed the local pantheon. Coming upon the temple, built in the Ptolemaic period, comes as a perfect ending to this archaeological walk.

From the gold of the shaft graves of Mycenae to an undecorated Late Roman lekythos, and from facade statuary in Roman Ephesus to electroplated teapots in present-day household assemblages on the island of Kythera, this volume presents a selection of essays on the complex and ever-progressing relationships between things and people across time and space. Past and present advances in the discourse on materialisms are approached from a case study perspective through the lens of two different but complementary themes: object biography and materiality in relation to medium. Each essay offers a distinct insight into the always shifting meanings, values, and relational connections of things, exploring a diversity of concepts, contexts, and material elements from prehistory to today.

La conquista y colonización a la que se le ha llamado el encuentro de dos mundos, fue también el encuentro de dos patriarcados. Este libro es una ventana, para conocer la vida de diferentes mujeres que vivieron hace 500 años, a traves de la historia de sus comunidades y su accion colectiva para fundar y gestionar diferentes espacios femeninos, que se crearon despues de la caida de Tenochtitlan y hasta 1580, en el valle de Mexico. Desde los centros de evangelizacion de la elite indigena femenina, hasta los diversos tipos de monasterios, colegios y recogimientos, se muestra como estos espacios femeninos se transformaron y jugaron un papel esencial en la estructura del orden colonial. Las mujeres que habitaron estos espacios son las protagonistas de esta historia y tuvieron diversos origenes y profesiones: beatas emparedadas, indigenas nobles, terciarias franciscanas, maestras y migrantes españolas, monjas criollas y mestizas, niñas, sirvientas africanas, mujeres en situacion de prostitucion, mestizas huerfanas, y mas. Bajo una rigurosa investigacion realizada en distintos archivos de Mexico, España y Roma el libro recoge la voz de estas mujeres utilizando como fuentes principales sus escritos y testimonios directos e indirectos, que muestran su accion politica, su forma de organizacion y el enfrentamiento e interlocucion que tuvieron con los diferentes poderes del virreinato novohispano, de la Monarquia Española y la curia Romana. En el contexto de una sociedad que se estaba gestando y en la cual los actores politicos y religiosos masculinos buscaban consolidarse en el poder y gobierno, las comunidades de mujeres se enfrentaron a una sociedad patriarcal y violenta, que intento usar y controlar sus cuerpos ante la cual buscaron construir y fundar sus propios espacios con la mayor autonomia y libertad posible.

On July 31, 1937, seventeen-year-old Elmo Melosi, an Italian-American from suburban California, boarded the ocean liner Conte di Savoia in New York City for a nine-day voyage to Italy. He was headed to a Catholic seminary in the Piedmont region to prepare for the priesthood. Until he traveled to New York from his home in San Jose, he had never ventured beyond the West Coast, and had no idea what was in store for him living in what soon would be war-torn Europe. A Journey of Body, Mind, and Spirit, narrated by his son a retired history professor recounts Elmos experiences in Italy from 1937 until his return to the United States in October 1941 less than two months before the attack on Pearl Harbor. It details his trying existence in a financially strapped seminary, the heavy demands of school and work, his persistent health problems, his first-time connection with his Italian relatives, and his harrowing journey home. All of this is set against the backdrop of a country in the grip of Fascism and inching toward world war. The research for the book is based on Elmos diary from 1937 to 1941 while he was in Italy, another diary for the years 1945-1946, a book he wrote My Education which is a series of annotations of his diary entries (1937-1941), family genealogy, dozens of photographs, his sons recollections of his dad, and secondary sources on the history of modern Italy and the relationship between the Catholic Church and the Mussolini government.
