El Lyceum Club Femenino es la primera forma organizada de asociacionismo femenino integrada por mujeres interesadas en la cultura en España. Este se desarrolló en Madrid entre 1926 y 1939, con el objetivo de defender los derechos civiles de la mujer, promoviendo el desarrollo cultural, educativo y profesional de estas. Desde la Sección de Música, presidida por Ela Fernández Arbós y después por María Rodrigo, se programaron múltiples conciertos, fiestas y conferencias que contribuyeron al desarrollo cultural de la época. Desde su fundación, el Lyceum de Madrid mantuvo una estrecha relación con otras asociaciones culturales femeninas españolas y de otros países, manteniendo un especial vínculo con los Estados Unidos. Se programaron, además, múltiples actividades de intercambio con el objetivo conocer en España otras culturas y de difundir la labor de las socias del Lyceum madrileño en el exterior. Debido a la temprana desaparición del club en 1939 son muy escasos los trabajos referentes a esta institución. Resulta curioso que, pese a los pocos trabajos realizados por investigadores españoles, la hispanista estadounidense Shirley Mangini, profesora en la California State University, haya realizado una de las investigaciones más profundas, recuperando el trabajo de estas mujeres y contribuyendo a su difusión en los Estados Unidos. El objetivo principal de este trabajo es, por lo tanto, analizar la labor de difusión del Lyceum Club Femenino de Madrid en los Estados Unidos por parte de la hispanista Shirley Mangini. La metodología se basa en técnicas cualitativas del método histórico, principalmente en la recopilación sistemática de datos, siendo la fuente primaria todas las investigaciones publicadas de esta autora y la fuente secundaria los trabajos referentes a ella y a sus investigaciones. Se trata de un trabajo fundamentalmente documental basado en un estudio de estas investigaciones previas, cuyo fin es analizar y demostrar la importancia del trabajo de investigación y divulgación de Mangini acerca del Lyceum de Madrid y relacionarlo con los escasos estudios musicológicos que se han realizado en España sobre este.

Disaster Capitalism

As today’s catastrophic Covid-19 pandemic exacerbates ongoing crises, including systemic racism, rising ethno-nationalism, and fossil-fuelled climate change, the neoliberal world that we inhabit is becoming increasingly hostile, particularly for the most vulnerable. Even in the United States, as armed white-supremacist, pro-Trump forces face off against protesters seeking justice for African Americans, the hostility is increasingly palpable, and often frightening. Yet as millions of Black Lives Matter protesters demonstrated after the brutal police killing of George Floyd, the current, intersecting crises – worsened by Trump’s criminalization of anti-racism protesters and his dismissal of science – demand a serious, engaged, response from activists as well as artists. The title of this article is meant to evoke not only the state of the unusually cruel moment through which we are living, but also the very different approaches to performance of both Brecht and Artaud, whose ideas, along with those of others – including Benjamin, Butler, Latour, Mbembe, and Césaire – inform the radical, open-ended, post-pandemic theatre practice proposed in this essay. A critically acclaimed dramatist as well as Professor of English and Playwriting at California State University, Northridge, Mitchell’s published volumes of plays include Disaster Capitalism; or Money Can’t Buy You Love: Three Plays; Brecht in L.A.; and Ventriloquist: Two Plays and Ventriloquial Miscellany. He is the editor of Experimental O’Neill, and is currently at work on a series of post-pandemic plays.

AbstractVirtual twins (VTs; same-age unrelated siblings reared together from early infancy) have been studied at California State University (CSU), Fullerton since 1991. The current sample includes over 130 pairs. Past and current research have research have focused on siblings' similarities and differences in general intelligence and body size. Future research in these areas will continue as new pairs continue to be identified. These studies will be supplemented by analyses of personality, social relations and adjustment using monozygotic (MZ) twins, dizygotic (DZ) twins, full siblings and friends, as well as new VTs, who have participated in Twins, Adoptees, Peers and Siblings (TAPS), a collaborative project conducted between CSU Fullerton and the University of San Francisco, from 2002 to 2006.

   The term justice has become a catchphrase in education, used often and yet still evasive. In an attempt to define justice in research, policy, and practice, the California State University, Sacramento Doctoral Program in Educational Leadership invited preeminent scholars into the conversation through a public webinar series. Hundreds of people tuned in to listen and learn—some sessions having over 350 active participants. The attendees represented a unique cross-section of stakeholders: about 1/3 from universities, 1/3 from school districts, and 1/3 from community groups. Each webinar began and closed with music (e.g., Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now) that curated and uplifted the virtual space. Local spoken word artists were also invited
