Resumen Los modelos anatómicos fueron muy utilizados en la enseñanza de la historia natural entre el siglo XIX y primer tercio de siglo XX. Hoy en día, siguen siendo un recurso didáctico importante para la enseñanza de la biología en muchos centros históricos de secundaria y museos de nuestro país. Estudiamos los modelos tridimensionales de la casa comercial francesa Les Fils d’Émile Deyrolle con su oferta de reproducción de organismos y estructuras botánicas, centrando nuestra investigación en una de las colecciones más completas que existen de esta serie conservada en el antiguo gabinete-laboratorio de biología de la Universidad de Murcia. Por una parte, se analizan sus características técnicas, funcionamiento, así como también su función didáctica y contenidos asociados. Abstract Anatomical models were widely used in the teaching of natural history between the 19th century and the first third of the 20th century. Nowadays, they still are an important didactic resource in many historical institutions of secondary school education and museums in Spain. We study the three-dimensional models of the French firm Les Fils d’Émile Deyrolle, which offered a reproduction of organisms and structures related to botany. We focused our study on one of the most complete collection - kept in the historic laboratory of biology of the University of Murcia. Its technical characteristics, functioning, as well as its didactic function and associated contents have been included in our analysis.

Abstract. The representation of the areas in which some of the most significant events of the First World War took place has produced a wide range of materials, such as cartography, aerial and terrestrial photos, textual descriptions and field surveys. In addition, war events were also represented through three-dimensional models. Topographic maps and models constitute composite figurations, which are rich in informative data useful for the preservation of the memory of places and for increasing the knowledge of cultural heritage. Hence, these sources need to be studied, described, interpreted and used for future enhancement. The focus of this paper are archival materials from the collections kept at the Italian War History Museum of Rovereto (Museo Storico Italiano della Guerra), in the Trentino-Alto Adige region. Firstly, we will investigate the cartographic fond in order to assess the composition and origin of its materials. Secondly, we will present the Museum’s collection of Early-Twentieth Century models. Such precious heritage is not yet part of an exhibition, and is kept in the Museum’s warehouses. The paper constitutes the occasion to present the initial results of a still ongoing project by the Geo-Cartographic Centre for Study and Documentation (GeCo) of the University of Trento on the study and analysis of two archival complexes preserved in the abovementioned Museum. In particular, the paper focuses on the heuristic value of such representational devices, which enable an analysis of the different methods and languages through which space is planned and designed, emphasizing the complementarity between different types of visualization.

Resumen: P. Craig Russell ha destacado, entre otras aportaciones, por su labor a la hora de realizar una larga serie de adaptaciones del mundo de la ópera a la viñeta. El estilo de Russell se caracteriza por partir de la idea de adaptar una obra musical a un medio plástico y visual haciendo que no solo se convierta en la simple narración de una ópera musical, sino que crea una obra en sí misma en la que intenta recoger diferentes sensaciones estilísticas, estructurales y estéticas de la obra y generar una representación de las mismas. En este artículo nos valdremos de su adaptación de Salomé, ópera de Richard Strauss de 1905 basada en la obra teatral homónima de Oscar Wilde. Se tratará la idea de musicalización del cómic y la forma en la que Russell plasma diferentes ideas musicales referentes no solo a timbres, leitmotiv u orquestación, sino atendiendo a diferentes parámetros que engloba la obra de Strauss, en torno a la idea de maximalización y decadencia del arte de finales del siglo XIX y principios del siglo XX. Abstract: P. Craig Russell has stood out, among other contributions, for his work in making a long series of adaptations from the world of opera to comic. Russell's style is characterized by starting from the idea of adapting a musical work to a plastic and visual medium, making it not only become the simple narration of a musical opera, but also creates a work in itself in which he tries to collect different stylistic, structural and aesthetic sensations of the work and generate a representation of them. In this article we will use his adaptation of Salomé, an opera by Richard Strauss from 1905 based on the play of the same name by Oscar Wilde. The idea of musicalization of the comic will be discussed and the way in which Russell expresses different musical ideas referring not only to timbres, leitmotivs or orchestration, but also taking into account different parameters that encompass Strauss's work around the idea of maximalization and decadence of art from the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century.

Resumo: A geografia é uma disciplina que traz consigo uma longa tradição gráfica, que é parte de seu próprio nome (algumas interpretações etimológicas prevalecem o significado de gráfico ou desenho do sufixo graphia sobre o de descrição textual).No entanto, nos últimos dois séculos, a Geografia se consolidou como uma disciplina eminentemente literária e isso acabou impactando na produção e uso de imagens na geografia escolar. Em oposição a isso, no final do século XIX, foi amplamente aceito que o ato de desenhar (especialmente a cópia e o mapeamento) era um exercício útil para pensar, interpretar e internalizar conteúdos geográficos.Neste artigo, analisamos como as habilidades gráficas promovidas na geografia escolar foram variadas com base em experiências, materiais e atividades desenvolvidos nas instituições escolares (considerando que é lá e quando as habilidades expressivas e comunicacionais são aprendidas) entre o final do século XIX e meados do século XX. Resumen: La geografía es una disciplina que carga con una larga tradición gráfica, que forma parte incluso de su propio nombre (algunas interpretaciones etimológicas hacen prevalecer el sentido de gráfico o dibujo del sufijo graphia sobre la de descripción textual).Sin embargo, en los últimos dos siglos, la Geografía se ha ido consolidando como en una disciplina eminentemente literaria y ello ha terminado impactando sobre la producción y el uso de imágenes en la geografía escolar. Por el contrario, a finales del siglo XIX, estaba ampliamente aceptado que el acto del dibujo (sobre todo, el copiado y el calcado de mapas) era un ejercicio útil para pensar, interpretar e interiorizar contenidos geográficos.En este artículo se analiza cómo fueron variando las habilidades gráficas promovidas en la geografía escolar a partir de experiencias, materiales y actividades desarrolladas en instituciones escolares (considerando que es allí donde y cuando se aprenden las destrezas expresivas y comunicacionales) entre finales del siglo XIX y mediados del siglo XX.   Abtract: Geography is a discipline that carries with it a long graphic tradition, which is even part of its own name (some etymological interpretations prevail the sense of graphic or drawing attributed to the graphia suffix over textual description).However, in the last two centuries, Geography has been consolidated as an eminently literary discipline and this has ended up impacting on the production and use of images in school geography. In contrast, at the end of the nineteenth century, it was widely accepted that the act of drawing was a useful exercise for thinking, interpreting and internalizing geographical contents.In this article we analyzed how the graphic skills promoted in school geography varied from experiences, materials and activities developed in school institutions between the end of the 19th century and the mid - 20th century.

En este artículo estudio el problema de la significación del espacio portuario y sus consecuencias en la configuración social y cultural de las ciudades marítimas y fluviales que lo contenían. Mi reflexión se centra en los pequeños espacios situados en los centros históricos que concentraban las labores portuarias y otras actividades que determinaban la totalidad de la vida de esas poblaciones. Esas áreas fueron vitales hasta que por las nuevas actividades, el crecimiento demográfico y urbano de la primera mitad del siglo XX, fueron sacadas a las afueras de las ciudades y aislados del resto de los espacios urbanos y de otras actividades con las que habían permanecido confundidos durante varios siglos. El argumento central de este artículo propone que en comparación con las ciudades mediterráneas organizadas en torno a la plaza central, las ciudades portuarias poseyeron una dualidad entre ese espacio como sitio de residencia de los notables, las autoridades civiles y eclesiásticas, y en consecuencia de control social, y la plaza portuaria que por su polifuncionalidad en cierta medida fue construida de abajo hacia arriba. Ese protagonismo del puerto en la vida urbana se debió a la diversidad de actividades que contenía, pues era espacio de trabajo, intercambio cultural, plaza de mercado, sitio de diversión y ocio. Esto marcó de singular manera a la sociedad de los puertos pues determinó unas dinámicas sociales, culturales, laborales distintas a las escenificadas en las ciudades mediterráneas.Palabras clave: puertos, Gran Caribe, ciudad portuaria, espacio polifuncional, plaza  portuaria, plaza central.From port city to the port as a multifunctional space. The Gran Caribe ports in the 19th century. Abstract In this article I study the problem about the port area importance and its impacts on social and cultural arrangement of maritime and river cities. My idea is focused on small areas located in the historic centers that hold port activities and labors that ruled the whole life of these populations. These areas were vital but due to new activities, urban and population growth in the first half of the 20th century, they were taken to the cities’ outskirts and were isolated from other urban areas and activities that had been with for several centuries. The main argument of this paper says that in comparison to Mediterranean cities that were organized around the main square, port cities had duality between the space for important people, civil and ecclesiastical authorities as a residence place, and because of that for social control. The port main square was built from down to up by its somehow multifunctionality. The port importance in urban life was because of the activities diversity it had, as it was a working, cultural exchange, and marketplace place, as well as entertainment and leisure site. This marked the society ports in a unique way as it defined different social, cultural, labor dynamics from Mediterranean cities. Keywords: ports, Gran Caribe, a port city, multifunctional space, port main square, main square.

The exhibition of two mummies in the Natural History cabinet in Paris aroused the interest of various scientific expeditions that made a stopover in Tenerife in the first half of the 19th century. Nicolas Baudin’s expedition in 1800 coincided with the discovery of a cave with mummies in El Sauzal and three ended up in the university museums of Montpellier and Göttingen and one in the cabinet of Saviñón. Another mummy was given to von Krusenstern’s Russian expedition of 1803, currently in the museum of Saint Petersburg. A new cave with mummies was discovered ca. 1815 in Tacoronte, which ended up in the scientific cabinet of Megliorini. Another mummy located in Valleseco, Santa Cruz, around 1823, was sold in Puerto de la Cruz to a Swiss merchant for the Geneva museum.

Following an introductory essay, six short contributions by academics and museum curators in the United States (US) and Europe tackle the current state and future of Pre-Columbian visual culture studies. They explore the field’s impressive growth in this century, as well as some of the dangers it currently faces as a result of that growth. Several trace its present state to its origins and the part played by early Mexican and US nationalism, the popularity of world’s fairs, and the civil rights movement, among other factors. Also considered are problems inherent in the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century separation of the preconquest past from the newly labeled colonial period, as well as the concurrent embrace of the term “Pre-Columbian.” Other essays take a hard look at the present and future relation of art history to archaeology and cross-disciplinary studies within the field, which is defined in part by their dependence on, or skepticism regarding, iconography. Whereas academics wrestle in these essays with the implications of a declining job market, museum curators struggle with limited funding. Nonetheless, possible new strategies and opportunities for the future are proposed, including engagement with issues posed by the rising interest in decoloniality and global indigeneity. RESUMEN Luego de un ensayo introductorio, seis contribuciones cortas de académicos y conservadores de museos en los Estados Unidos y Europa abordan el estado actual y el futuro de los estudios de cultura visual precolombina. Se explora el impresionante crecimiento del campo en este siglo, así como algunos de los peligros que enfrenta actualmente como resultado de este crecimiento. Varios colaboradores trazan el estado actual del campo hasta sus orígenes y notan la influencia en él de las primeras manifestaciones de los nacionalismos de México y los Estados Unidos, la popularidad de las ferias mundiales y el Movimiento por los derechos civiles, entre otros factores. También se consideran los problemas inherentes a la separación entre el pasado precolombino y el llamado período colonial que se establecía entre fines del siglo XIX y principios del siglo XX, así como la aceptación simultánea del término “precolombino”. Otros ensayos analizan detenidamente la relación presente y futura de la historia del arte con la arqueología y los estudios interdisciplinarios dentro del campo, que se define en parte por su dependencia o escepticismo con respecto a la iconografía. Mientras que los académicos discuten en estos ensayos las implicaciones de un mercado de trabajo decreciente, los curadores de museos abordan las restricciones presupuestarias. No obstante, se proponen posibles nuevas estrategias y oportunidades para el futuro, como la participación futura en cuestiones planteadas por el creciente interés en la descolonialidad y la indigeneidad global. RESUMO Após um ensaio introdutório, seis curtas contribuições de acadêmicos e curadores de museus nos Estados Unidos e na Europa abordam o estado atual e o futuro dos estudos da cultura visual pré-colombiana. O impressionante crescimento do campo neste século, bem como alguns dos perigos que atualmente enfrenta como resultado desse crescimento, são explorados. Diversos colaboradores traçam o estado atual do campo até suas origens e o papel desempenhado pelo nacionalismo inicial do México e dos Estados Unidos, a popularidade das feiras mundiais e o Movimento dos direitos civis, entre outros fatores. Também são considerados os problemas inerentes à separação, no final do século XIX e início do século XX, entre o passado pré-conquista e o recém-rotulado período colonial, bem como a aderência simultânea ao termo “pré-colombiano”. Outros ensaios dedicam olhar atento à relação presente e futura da história da arte com a arqueologia e estudos interdisciplinares dentro do campo, que é definida em parte por sua dependência ou ceticismo em relação à iconografia. Enquanto os acadêmicos lutam nesses ensaios com as implicações de um mercado de trabalho em declínio, os curadores de museus lutam com recursos limitados. No entanto, são propostas possíveis novas estratégias e oportunidades para o futuro, incluindo o envolvimento futuro com questões levantadas pelo crescente interesse na decolonialidade e na indigeneidade global.

Changes of Dnieper’s islands’ landscapes within Kyiv at the example of Velykiy Pivnichniy Island are studied. Using GIS, cartographic materials and remote sensing data the island’s square dynamic for more than seventy years is obtained. During decoding vector layers – the contours of the coastline of the island and the island area – were created and island’s square for 1942, 1975, 1985, 1990, 2000, 2015 years was estimated. Using module implemented in ArcScene ArcGIS the dynamics of long-term changes of Velykiy Island’s shape was modeled and clearly reflected in the form of three-dimensional models. The coastal landscape of Kyiv began to rapidly change for the past 100-200 years due to rapid urban sprawl. Before it Dnieper’s backwater in Kyiv formed by glaciers and it became the basis for floodplain in Kyiv region for a long time. In the 19th century held-rectifying work was conducted and it greatly influenced the coastal landscape of our city. Formation of new islands, such as Grand Island and changes of old islands (such as the island of Murom united with Truhanov Island) has begun. Great Island consisted of 2 parts, one of which joined the island much later than the first part of the island was formed. From 1950 to 1990 the island had the largest area and it was unchanged while this period. The rapid square reduction began in the 1990s when sand mining started for the purpose of Troieshchyna district building. Currently the island is used as a career for the extraction of sand, which is important for development of different districts, including cottages on the site of meadows and oak forests on north of the Gulf of Camel. It is a negative factor for the island, where there are different species of animals and plants are located. The island is also an example of modern Dnieper floodplain formation and it should be preserved as a conservation area of the city.

El presente trabajo consiste en un análisis historiográfico sobre el protagonismo que tuvieron los distintos grupos étnicos en la Guerra de Independencia del Ecuador según los textos escolares de Historia publicados entre 1915 y 2015. Se han utilizado como fuentes historiográficas los textos escolares de Historia, debido a que desde el siglo XX las políticas educativas ecuatorianas los han utilizado como instrumentos ideológicos para llevar a cabo la construcción de una identidad nacional común cimentada a partir de los presupuestos de la Historia Patria del siglo XIX. El empleo de la enseñanza de la Historia a través de los textos escolares para consolidar esa identidad nacional del siglo XIX se hace patente en el análisis sobre el protagonismo étnico en la Independencia, donde dichos textos explican este acontecimiento como un proyecto de construcción nacional dirigido por las élites criollas cuyo supuesto objetivo principal era liberar a todos los “ecuatorianos” de una presunta opresión monárquica ejercida por un enemigo extranjero: el “español”. Pese a que hay autores que han manifestado que indígenas, negros, mestizos, zambos, pardos, mulatos, cholos, obtuvieron pocos beneficios de la Independencia, todos los textos escolares no dudan en confirmar que gracias a los esfuerzos de las élites criollas, héroes de la Patria a los que hay que venerar y ensalzar, la República del Ecuador pudo ser libre. The present work consists of a historiographic analysis of the protagonism that the different ethnic groups had in Ecuador's War of Independence according to the history textbooks published between 1915 and 2015. History school textbooks have been used as historiographic sources, because since the 20th century Ecuadorian educational policies have used them as ideological instruments to carry out the construction of a common national identity based on the assumptions of the 19th century Patriotic History. The use of the teaching of history through school texts to consolidate this 19th century national identity is evident in the analysis of the ethnic protagonism in the Independence, where these texts explain this event as a project of national construction directed by the Creole elites whose supposed main objective was to free all “Ecuadorians” from an alleged monarchical oppression exercised by a foreign enemy: the “Spanish”. Although some authors have stated that indigenous people, blacks, mestizos, zambos, pardos, mulatos and cholos obtained few benefits from Independence, all the school texts do not hesitate to confirm that thanks to the efforts of the Creole elites, heroes of the country who are to be venerated and praised, the Republic of Ecuador was able to be free.
