Gabriela Méndez Cota deposited Filosofía y análisis crítico de la inteligencia artificial in the group
Feminist Humanities on Humanities Commons 2 years, 7 months agoLa inteligencia artificial (IA) no sólo es tecnociencia sino también cultura que se remonta a ciertas valoraciones filosóficas de la inteligencia, lo natural y lo artificial. De ahí que produzca entusiasmo y temor, por no decir angustia ante la finitud de cierta humanidad. No se trata tanto, para el pensamiento contemporáneo de la técnica, de re…[Read more]

Medieval Studies on Humanities Commons 2 years, 7 months agoWe all have lists of things to do. We also have playlists, shopping lists and lists of pros and cons (not to mention lists of publications). Whether we make them on paper or with an app, lists are central to our lives.

Gabriela Méndez Cota deposited Teoría feminista y práctica editorial: una cuestión posthumana in the group
Feminist Humanities on Humanities Commons 2 years, 7 months agoEste artículo argumenta que las críticas feministas del universalismo androcéntrico, el determinismo tecnológico y la mercantilización del conocimiento no se conforman ya con figurar como contenidos académicos, sino que se constituyen activismos académicos por la transformación post-humanista de los saberes a través de prácticas experimen…[Read more]

Nicholas S.M. Matheou deposited Methodological Imperialism in the group
Medieval Studies on Humanities Commons 2 years, 7 months agoByzantinists have a tendency, implicitly or explicitly, to adopt the analytical perspective of the central state and its imperial class. We ask what helped the empire survive and/or expand, and we judge the success of a given ruler, official, or policy according to this criterion. I term this tendency methodological imperialism.

Oscar Perea-Rodriguez deposited Juan Fernández de Heredia: renombrado poeta, popular deportista… ¿y criminal encubierto? in the group
Medieval Studies on Humanities Commons 2 years, 7 months agoPese a su prestigio académico y a la importancia de su producción poética, el valenciano Juan Fernández de Heredia es un poeta cancioneril de cuya vida y obra todavía albergamos bastantes lagunas.

Oscar Perea-Rodriguez deposited La controversia judía y judeoconversa en los debates del Cancionero de Baena in the group
Medieval Studies on Humanities Commons 2 years, 7 months agoLos debates literarios son prácticamente consustanciales e intrínsecos a la existencia de la literatura en cualquier lengua y en cualquier cultura, en tanto que «en último término, remiten a condicionamientos pragmáticos humanos» (Chas Aguión 2002 : 59). Por lo que respecta a su inserción en la cultura de la Edad Media hispánica, hay un aspecto i…[Read more]

Christopher Griffin deposited Recognition Against Liberation: On the UK’s Unreformed Gender Recognition Act in the group
LGBTQ Studies on Humanities Commons 2 years, 8 months agoIn this short article I argue that the UK government’s decision not to update the Gender Recognition Act 2004 (GRA) is more than a missed opportunity. It weaponises the GRA, now an effective instrument of assimilation and containment. The failure to reform the GRA seems like a maintenance of the status quo, but given that the circumstances have s…[Read more]

Medieval Studies on Humanities Commons 2 years, 9 months agoBy applying translation theories and discourse analysis to the study of thirteenth-century English law, it is apparent that some of the terms used in secondary works and printed editions of primary sources are not based on the actual manuscript sources but instead modern biases (intersecting ethnicity and gender).

Kyle Frackman deposited Homemade Pornography and the Proliferation of Queer Pleasure in East Germany in the group
LGBTQ Studies on Humanities Commons 2 years, 10 months agoLike other Eastern Bloc countries, East Germany sought to control even its citizens’ leisure time in the 1960s and 1970s, with the goal of making it useful or at least not subversive to state interests. Certain hobbies, like amateur photography, found support from the state in the form of increased access to equipment and supplies. Other s…[Read more]
