Resumen. El pensamiento posmoderno es uno de los movimientos filosóficos con más repercusión en la época actual. El feminismo de la diferencia, corriente que surge en los años 60 y 70, confluye en muchos de sus puntos con los generalmente atribuidos a la posmoder­nidad. En el presente artículo se ponen en diálogo ambas corrientes a partir de la revisión de algunos de los planteamientos de la teórica feminista Luce Irigaray que remiten a la posterior­mente teorizada “muerte del sujeto”, uno de los ejes del pensamiento posmoderno. Esta tesis se traduce en Irigaray como la crítica a la construcción del “Hombre” como sujeto universal y central en el orden patriarcal, que define a las mujeres como su opuesto, y por lo tanto, privadas de subjetividad propia. Irigaray desafía la existencia de este sujeto universal con el llamamiento a descubrir la propia subjetividad de las mujeres como punto de partida desde el que fundar un orden simbólico alternativo. No obstante, también pueden identificarse algunas contradicciones entre ambas teorías.Palabras clave: posmodernidad, feminismo, diferencia, subjetividad, falocentrismo, len­guaje.Abstract. The Postmodern thought stands as one of the philosophical movements that have achieved a greater repercussion in present times. The Difference Feminism, a current arising in the 60s and 70s, converges in many of its premises with those generally attributed to Postmodernity. In this article both trends are put in dialogue, starting from the revision of some of feminist theorist Luce Irigaray’s approaches that refer to the later theorized ‘Death of the Subject’ - one of the axes of Postmodern thought. This thesis translates into Irigaray as critic of the construction of the ‘Man’ as an universal and central subject in patriarchal order, which defines women as men’s opposite and subsequently renders them deprived of their own subjectivity. Irigaray challenges the existence of this universal subject through her call to discover women’s own subjectivity as a starting point from which an alternative symbolic order can be established. However, it is also possible to identify some contradictions between both theories.Keywords: posmodernism, feminism, difference, subjectivity, phallocentrism, language.

Abstract “Being is said in many ways,” claimed Aristotle, initiating a discussion about existential commitment that continues today. Might there not be reasons to say something similar about “having been,” or “having happened,” where these expressions denote something’s being located in the past? Moreover, if history – construed not only as an object of inquiry (actual events, etc.) but also as a way of casting light on certain matters – is primarily concerned with “things past,” then the question just posed also seems relevant to the question of what historical understanding amounts to. While the idea that ‘being’ may mean different things in different contexts has indisputable importance, the implications of other, past-temporal expressions are elusive. In what might any differences of substantive meaning encountered there consist? One starting point for responding – the one that provides the subject matter explored here – is furnished by the question of whether or not a certain way of addressing matters relating to the past permits or precludes forms of intelligibility that could be said to be ‘radically historical.’ After arguing that the existing options for addressing this issue remain unsatisfactory, I set out an alternative view of what it could mean to endorse or reject such an idea. This involves drawing distinctions and analogies connected with notions of temporal situatedness, human practicality and historicality, which are then linked to a further contrast between two ways of understanding the referential significance of what is involved when we self-ascribe a relation to a current situation in a manner construable as implying that we take ourselves to occupy a unique, yet circumstantially defined, perspective on that situation. As regards the latter, on one reading, the specific kind of indexically referring language we use – commonly labelled “de se” – is something whose rationale is exhausted by its practical utility as a communicative tool. On the other, it is viewed as capturing something of substantive importance about how we can be thought of as standing in relation to reality. I claim that this second reading, together with the line of thinking about self-identification and self-reference it helps foreground, can shed light on what it would mean to affirm or deny the possibility of radically historical forms of intelligibility – and thus also on what it could mean to ascribe a plurality of meanings to talk concerning things being ‘in the past.’

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify the state of the art on publications related to “Business Marketing” over the past 10 years (2010–2020) and available in the SCOPUS database. Design/methodology/approach In this research, a bibliometric study on entrepreneurial marketing (EM) was performed. The articles were selected from the SCOPUS database and dated from January 1, 2010 to July 11, 2020. Findings In total, 124 articles on the area of business management were identified, they are written in English. Through the systematization of these articles, it was found that the majority of the publications and citations about EM are from the year 2020 (378 articles), respectively, with 17 citations. The Journal of Research in Marketing and Entrepreneurship was the most published on the subject and obtained the highest number of citations over the past 10 years. The authors that obtained the highest number of citations were: Jones and Rowley (2011b) with 101 citations and Mort et al. (2012) with 71 citations. It was also possible to identify four clusters: “entrepreneurial orientation”; “customer strategy”; “market orientation” and “innovative entrepreneurship and marketing.” Practical implications This paper reinforces the coherence and scientific structure of the current literature. The systematization of the concepts we present can be used by managers to define strategies and policies in EM planning. Originality/value This research gives special emphasis to the publications over the past 10 years, related to the management area and focused on the term “Entrepreneurship Marketing,” aiming to identify publication trends. Another innovation from this research is the usage of a single database, for the case SCOPUS. Moreover, the authors also reveal a current agenda with future lines of research in EM, which will serve as a starting point to prepare other studies in this area.

This dissertation contains an introduction and three sections. In the former I explain the import of the concepts that I use here so as to show that the baroque and the romantic have a philosophical relevance because they show each to its own the difference of subjectivity and nature that is the starting point of Modernity. In the first section I reconstruct the Cartesian project of a methodical certainty that overcomes the contradictions of the ancient metaphysics and I show too why that project implies a conflictive relation between the representation and the sensitivity that contradicts it through the deceitful seductiveness of images and the force of time that devastates any sense. In the second section, I show that this leads us to the baroque, that I consider a way for represent the tension between subjectivity and absolute temporality. In the last section I do the same regarding the romantic, which I take as the experience of the desiderative complexity of the subject.

A large class of 3-dimensional integrable lattice spin models is constructed. The starting point is an invertible canonical mapping operator [Formula: see text] in the space of a triple Weyl algebra. [Formula: see text] is derived postulating a current branching principle together with a Baxter Z-invariance. The tetrahedron equation for [Formula: see text] follows without further calculation. If the Weyl parameter is taken to be a root of unity, [Formula: see text] decomposes into a matrix conjugation operator R1,2,3 and a c-number functional mapping [Formula: see text]. The operator R1,2,3 satisfies a modified tetrahedron equation (MTE) in which the "rapidities" are solutions of a classical integrable Hirota-type equations. R1,2,3 can be represented in terms of the Bazhanov-Baxter Fermat curve cyclic functions, or alternatively in terms of Gauss functions. The paper summarizes several recent publications on the subject.

Resumen: El presente artículo indaga sobre el aspecto subjetivo implicado en las violencias contra las mujeres en el marco de la cultura patriarcal. Para ello, se ofrecen ideas psicoanalíticas que vinculan la identidad masculina hegemónica con la violencia. Luego, a partir del pensamiento de Judith Butler, se analiza el mandato normativo de la heterosexualidad obligatoria y su impacto en la violencia contra las mujeres. En esta línea, se presenta el modo en que Judith Butler entiende la constitución del sujeto y su relación con el cuerpo. Se destaca el modo en que, a partir de la lógica fálica que entreteje el orden simbólico patriarcal imperante, los cuerpos de las mujeres se codifican convenientemente como dañados o castrados. Finalmente, se reflexiona acerca del modo en que el patriarcado asegura que existan violencias contra las mujeres, pues ofrece cuerpos cuya codificación simbólica legitima las múltiples violencias posteriores. En última instancia, el presente artículo ofrece una posible explicación del modo en que la organización del patriarcado hunde sus raíces en las subjetividades. Tales lineamientos conceptuales no intentan agotar el tema, más bien exponen una perspectiva que se ofrece para una articulación posible con otros abordajes en la búsqueda de una comprensión en su mayor complejidad posible.Palabras clave: masculinidad, violencia, cuerpo, identidad, sexualidad.Heteronormativity and Hegemonic Masculinity.A Psychoanalytic Perspective on Violence against WomenAbstract: This article explores the subjective aspect involved in violence against women in the context of patriarchal culture. In order to accomplish that, we offer some psychoanalytic ideas that link hegemonic masculine identity with violence. Then, based on the thought of Judith Butler, the regulatory mandate of compulsory heterosexuality and its impact on violence against women is analyzed. Butler’s understanding of the constitution of the subject and its relationship with the body is presented. We emphasize how, from the phallic logic that weaves the prevailing patriarchal symbolic order, women’s bodies are conveniently encoded as damaged or neutered. Finally, we reflect on how patriarchy guarantees there will be violence against women, offering bodies whose symbolic encoding legitimates subsequent violence. Ultimately, this article offers a possible explanation of how the patriarchal organization is rooted in patriarchal subjectivities. Such conceptual guidelines are not intended to exhaust the subject, but rather to expose a perspective that provides for possible linkages with other approaches in the search for an understanding in all its complexity.Keywords: masculinity, violence, body, identity, sexuality.

The starting point of the essay is clarifying the difference between the mono-perspective and multi-perspective vision of reality. Off-course the terms perspective, mono-perspective and multi-perspective are not self-explanatory and the meanings of these terms need to be formally analysed. After making the formal difference between mono-perspective thinking and multi-perspective thinking a content difference needs to be made. Namely, why is the Renaissance vision of reality multi-perspective and the Middle-Age vision of reality mono-perspective? The answer to this question needs to be given by the analysis of the original works of the Renaissance thinkers. Our undertaking will not be limited in analysing only one discourse but following the subject from a methodological point of view in a multi-perspectivism way. Therefore, three different discourses will be analysed:  The discourse of philosophical anthropology with Mirandola’s vision of man as a paradigmatic example-The discourse of philosophy of nature, with Bruno’s vision of the universe as a paradigmatic example-The discourse of art history in which four paintings will be analysed: these paintings can be considered of having philosophical, value because they provide a picturesque representation of what the Renaissance “world” was really like.

The article deals with three patterns for interpretation of language in its relation to the cultural hegemony, i.e. Gramscian, Voloshinian, and Pasolinian. As was shown, the analysis of the language problem is the necessary precondition for justifying the unity of theoretical and practical elements within Marxist philosophy. A common feature for the aforementioned patterns was an attempt to answer a fundamental question: how it is possible to make explicit the relationship between ideology and relations of production by means of the materialist dialectics. A refusal to fetishize language as a particular essence, a revealing that any sign systems are mediated by ideologies, and elaboration of a nonSaussurian structure of language are the core results of the proposed analysis. The starting point for the reflections of the mentioned thinkers was a tenet that communication in the state is determined by how much the institutions of power are able to bring the interests of society under control without disturbing the balance between the political body and the existing social forces. Thus, an ideology plays in two guises: as a symbolic order of legitimation on the society’s part and as a framing the growth of cultural forms. A distinction between the written and the spoken language becomes a politically significant tool to undermine the hegemony, for a balance between the political and the social, between the coercion and the approval, is widely open to fluctuations. Hence is the problem Marxist theorists have tried to solve: how can it be found out, with an examination of statements in non-political contexts, what someone talks of is a part of her political interest. The Marxist thinkers solved it in various ways. For instance, Gramsci focused himself on the reasons of making of the Italian literary canon; Voloshinov considered the proposition that in linguistics a formalism, as well as psychologism, following from a claim that semantics and means of expression are politically independent; and Pasolini sketched the difference between the spoken language, the spoken-written language, and the purely oral language, with unequal subjects of them.

Ivan Cankar (1876–1918), who occupies an honorable place in the Slovenian cultural canon, once changed the course of development of Slovenian literature and influenced the formation of national identity. The national narrative of Cankar was based on contradictions: living far from his people, he sometimes glorified them and sometimes attacked them with heavy criticism; he correlated his homeland with his mother, the mother though being dead. Cankar’s concentration on the subject of mother and homeland is interpreted here in the framework of psychoanalysis. Following Slavoj Žižek, the author develops the idea that it was the mother who became the Symbolic Order representative or Super-Ego for the writer. The concept of “Cankar’s mother”, which became a symbol of self-sacrifice and at the same time repressiveness in the Slovenian cultural space, is considered.
