The figure of Dacio Victoriano Darias y Padrón (Valverde, 1880-La Laguna, 1960) undoubtedly represents one of the referents of regionalist historicism that had its start in the Canary Islands in the first decades of the 20th century. Along with other intellectuals of his generation, the case of Sebastián Padrón Acosta, Buenaventura Bonnet Reverón and José Peraza de Ayala, among others, he distinguished himself by a persistent disseminating facet by approaching the knowledge of the island's past, in its different facets and epocas, to the readers of the daily press.

The Subject

Agustín Espinosa is one of the most important authors of the Canary Islands. A multifaceted writer, his work as a compiler of island “romances” is little known. In this work we will see what was the status of the Canarian “romances” research at the beginning of the 20th century and we will value the pioneering contribution of the author of Crimen to this field. To do this, we will review what other researchers such as Maximiano Trapero or Diego Catalán have written on the subject and propose a new reading of Espinosa’s research that starts from its context, that is, a reading that derives from a time when literature of the Canary Islands was conc

Literary Images

This study aims to reflect on the role Agustín Espinosa played in the vindication of both Cubism and the figure of Pablo Ruiz Picasso during the first third of the Spanish 20th century. To this end, it starts from a philological and historiographical analysis of Tenerife Gaceta de Arte, vehicle of dissemination of the artistic and cultural renewal in Spain. In this sense, the Picassian discourse of the Tenerife magazine is based on the Parisian surrealist group, headed by André Breton, as well as on a series of literary precedents present in the Canary Islands in the 1920s. When deepening into Espinosa’s work, it is possible to formulate new relational approaches between the literary images of the Canary poet and the Cubist dynamics, together with the defence of the movement.

This paper tries to show the influence of the classical tradition of the Golden Age in the avant-garde, specifically in the essayistic and creative work of the Canarian writer Agustín Espinosa García. His pages on Góngora, Lope de Vega, Calderón and, to a lesser extent, Cervantes are a reference of the best critical prose of the first third of the 20th century in the Canary Islands. Apart from his attention to the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, Espinosa developed keen notes on the Romancero, the Enlightenment or French poetry, among many other aspects of his insatiable intellectual curiosity. The recovery of Góngora in the magazine La Rosa de los Vientos (in parallel to Grupo del 27) was not the only project to revitalize the classics, regenerated and installed in the hour of modernity according to the criteria and concerns of the “new literature” where tradition and avant-garde dialogue.

Abstract. Dyslexia is a phenomenon for which the brain correlates have been studied since the beginning of the 20th century. Simultaneously, the field of education has also been studying dyslexia and its remediation, mainly through behavioral data. The last two decades have seen a growing interest in integrating neuroscience and education. This article provides a quick overview of pertinent scientific literature involving neurophysiological data on functional brain differences in dyslexia and discusses their very limited influence on the development of reading remediation for dyslexic individuals. Nevertheless, it appears that if certain conditions are met – related to the key elements of educational neuroscience and to the nature of the research questions – conceivable benefits can be expected from the integration of neurophysiological data with educational research. When neurophysiological data can be employed to overcome the limits of using behavioral data alone, researchers can both unravel phenomenon otherwise impossible to document and raise new questions.
