La "Historia general de Andalucía" (1869) de Joaquín Guichot y Parody fue el primer trabajo histórico de conjunto que se escribió sobre esta región y el único que existió hasta el final de la dictadura franquista. Se ofrece aquí una edición, anotada y revisada, del primer volumen del escrito, dedicado a la Prehistoria y la Antigüedad, así como un estudio introductorio, a cargo del profesor de la Universidad de Sevilla, Fernando Lozano Gómez, que presta especial atención a las fuentes, originalidad y trascendencia de la obra. La concepción positivia y regeneradora que ofreció Guichot de Andalucía influyó de manera crucial en los postulados de los intelectuales posteriores que fraguaron los conceptos de Andalucía y Andalucismo, así como las señas identitarias y las aspiraciones políticas de la región.

According to Census and CPS data, the share of employed American men regularly working more than 48 hours per week is higher today than it was 25 years ago. Using CPS data from 1979 to 2006, we show that this increase was greatest among highly educated, highly-paid, and older men, was concentrated in the 1980s, and was largely confined to workers paid on a salaried basis. We rule out a number of possible explanations of these changes, including changes in measurement, composition effects, and internet-facilitated work from home. Among salaried men, increases in long work hours were greatest in detailed occupations and industries with larger increases in residual wage inequality and slowly-growing real compensation at 'standard' (40) hours.

"This volume explores the nature of religious change in the Greek-speaking cities of the Roman Empire. Emphasis is put on those developments that apparently were not the direct result of Roman actions: the intensification of idiosyncratically Greek features in the religious life of the cities (Heller, Muñiz, Camia); the active role of a new kind of Hellenism in the design of imperial religious policies (Gordillo, Galimberti, Rosillo-López); or the locally different responses to central religious initiatives, and the influence of those local responses in other imperial contexts (Cortés, Melfi, Lozano, Rizakis). All the chapters try to suggest that religion in the Greek cities of the empire was both conservative and innovative, and that the 'Roman factor' helps to explain this apparent paradox. Contributors are: Francesco Camia, Juan Manuel Cortés Copete, Alessandro Galimberti, Rocío Gordillo Hervás, Anne Heller, Fernando Lozano Gómez, Milena Melfi, Elena Muñiz Grijalvo, Athanasios Rizakis, Cristina Rosillo-López"--Provided by publisher.

“This is, to our knowledge, the most extraordinary collection of varied and fascinating academic consideration on Game of Thrones ever put to press. By bringing together an international gathering of scholars who come from a wide array of disciplines, Game of Thrones: A View from the Humanities has made a real contribution to the study of popular culture and shown the value of humane inquiry into modern works of fiction.” —Elio M. García Jr. and Linda Antonsson, co-authors with G.R.R. Martin of The World of Ice & Fire “A humanistic approach to GOT. Finding bare and reasonable resemblances between Westeros, Essos and the civilizations of the ancient world.” —Aurora López Güeto, Pablo de Olavide University, Seville, Spain This book reflects on time, space and culture in the Game of Thrones universe. It analyses both the novels and the TV series from a multidisciplinary perspective ultimately aimed at highlighting the complexity, eclecticism and diversity that characterise Martin’s world. The volume is divided into three thematic sections. The first section focuses on space—both the urban and natural environment—and the interaction between human beings and their surroundings. The second section follows different yet complementary approaches to Game of Thrones from an aesthetic and cultural perspective. The final section addresses the linguistic and translation implications of the Game of Thrones universe, as well as its didactic uses. This book is paired with a second volume that focuses on the characters, violence and warfare in Martin’s universe.

Finding bare and reasonable resemblances between Westeros, Essos and the civilizations of the ancient world." -Aurora López Güeto, University Pablo de Olavide, Seville, Spain This volume focuses on the characters that populate the Game of Thrones universe and on one of the most salient features of their interaction: violence and warfare. It analyses these questions from a multidisciplinary perspective that is chiefly based on Classical Studies. The book is divided into two sections. The first section explores Martin's characters, the mainstay of both the novels and the TV series, since the author has peopled his universe with three-dimensional intriguing characters that resonate with the reader/audience. The second section is devoted to violence and warfare, both pervasive in the Game of Thrones universe. Alfonso Álvarez-Ossorio is Professor of Ancient History at the University of Seville, Spain.
