Aristófanes resulta ser una pieza clave para el conocimiento del léxico musical griego. La abundancia de testimonios que ofrece, sus apreciaciones técnicas y la creación de nuevos términos musicales le convierten en un importante eslabón en el campo de la música antigua. Su gusto por el detalle se evidencia en la descripción que realiza de los cantos y, sobre todo, de los instrumentos musicales. Aristophanes is a key piece for the Greek musical lexicon. The plenty of testimonies that he gives, his technical appreciations and the creation of new musical terms make him an important link in the scope of the ancient music. His interest in the detail is made evident in the description concerning songs and, especially, musical instruments.

The American South

For a slave living under the system of chattel slavery in the American South during the nineteenth century, avenues of self-expression were extremely limited. One of the few ways slaves could exert control over their own lives was through singing and dancing. These arts gave slaves a chance to relieve stress and establish a culture through the creation of musical instruments, songs, and dances. All of these contained hints at the true nature of slaves’ feelings towards the system that oppressed them, feelings that they had to frequently repress. However, despite slaves’ efforts to make this culture entirely their own, masters tried to find ways to use it to their advantage instead of to the slaves’ benefit. The resulting covert power struggle sometimes ended in favor of the masters, taking the form of regulations on slaves’ dances, requirement of the performance of songs and dances for the masters’ entertainment, and even abuse of slaves by using their own arts. Ultimately, however, slaves emerged victorious because of the hidden messages in their songs and dances. Though this method of coping could not erase all the masters did, it was at least one glimmer of hope.

Different Cultures

In recent years, the term «globalization» has become a catchword in many languages. It is an open-ended process that implies different levels of unification. In music, attempts have been made by individual and collectively by artists from different cultures in the world. In each case, the process has been focused on the unification of musical sounds that can be identified within the global community. Technology is successful with the duplication of sounds of musical instruments for computer games, but the creation of zones of cultural interaction as defined by actual musical instruments is presenting challenges with the unification of cultural values into one global community. In music, globalization implies «world music» that is articulated as a hybrid product. The process of globalization is readily realized electronically, with sounds of musical instruments, but the creation of zones of cultural interaction, with the same musical instruments, will require a mixture of configuration of factors ranging from ecology to language and cultural manifestation. The objective of zones of cultural interaction is not to unify style of music, but through globalization is the sharing of actual musical instruments. To accomplish this objective, geographic spaces will have to surmount the globalization of the world ecology, language, and culture. En los últimos años, el término «globalización» se ha convertido en una palabra clave para muchas lenguas. Con él se hace referencia a un proceso abierto que implica diferentes niveles de unificación. En el campo de la música, han participado en él, tanto de forma individual como colectiva, artistas de diferentes culturas del mundo. En todos los casos, el proceso se ha centrado en la unificación de sonidos musicales que puedan identificarse por una comunidad global. En este sentido, la tecnología ha conseguido con éxito duplicar los sonidos de los instrumentos musicales para los videojuegos, pero la creación de zonas de interacción cultural, como las definidas por los instrumentos musicales actuales, se enfrenta a una serie de retos derivados de la unificación de los valores culturales en una comunidad global. El proceso de globalización se puede desarrollar fácilmente de manera electrónica con sonidos de instrumentos musicales, la creación de las zonas de interacción cultural con los mismos instrumentos musicales necesitará que se den además una serie de factores, que van desde lo ecológico hasta lo lingüístico y cultural. El principal objetivo de las zonas de interacción cultural no es el de unificar el estilo de música, sino el de compartir los instrumentos musicales actuales a través de la globalización. Para cumplir este objetivo, los territorios en los que se produzca esa interacción tendrán que completar este proceso globalizador atendiendo a criterios ecológicos, lingüísticos y culturales.

The Church

The Chant or music used by the Papal choir, and indeed in most Catholic cathedrals and abbey churches is, excepting in some instances, ancient. Gregory the Great collected it into a body and gave it the form in which it now appears, though not the author of it. The chant of the psalms is simple and affecting, composed of Lydian, Phrygian and other Greek and Roman tunes, without many notes, but with a sufficient inflection to render them soft and plaintive or bold and animating…. This ancient music which has long been known by the name of the Gregorian chant, so well adapted to the gravity of divine service, has been much disfigured in the process of time by the bad taste of the middle and the false refinements of the latter ages. The first encumbered it with an endless succession of dull unnecessary notes, dragging their slow length along, and burthening the ear with a dead weight of sound; the other infected it with the melting airs, the laboured execution, the effeminate graces of the orchestra, useless to say the least even in the theatre, but profane and almost sacrilegious in the church. Some care seems to have been taken to avoid these defects in the papal choir. The general style and spirit of the ancient and primitive music have been retained and some modern compositions of known and acknowledged merit, introduced on stated days and in certain circumstances. Of musical instruments, the organ only is additional in St Peters, or rather in the Papal chapel, and even then not always: voices only are employed in general, and as those voices are numerous, perfect in their kind, and in thorough unison with one another, and as the singers themselves are concealed from view, the effect is enchanting and brings to mind ‘the celestial voices in full harmonic number joined’ that sometimes reached the ears of our first parents in paradise, and ‘lifted their thoughts to heaven’.

Having been asked by the burgomasters of Rotterdam to make a prestigious wall map of their city, the famous printmaker Romeyn de Hooghe (1645-1708) initially supplied a disappointing product that the burgomasters rejected. It was known that this had happened, but what was not known is that a unique impression of the rejected map, titled Rotterodamum, survives in the Print Room’s collection. The discovery of Rotterodamum provided the opportunity to shed more light on De Hooghe’s commission, the production process and his working methods. Rotterodamum is thus an important link in the creation of the eventual, well-known map Rotterdam met al syn gebouwen, by De Hooghe and Johannes de Vouw (c. 1660-1707).

Palabras claves: Educación superior, egresados, ex alumnos, misión y visión, seguimientoResumen. Durante el proceso de vinculación de trabajos de investigación en centros educativos en las áreas de estudio de contaduría y administración, ha sido posible el llegar a constatar que en varios de estos centros educativos, no se da un seguimiento formal y profesional a egresados de las diferentes carreras de contaduría y administración, y las pocas universidades que tiene implementado un sistema de seguimiento a egresados, no le otorgan crédito, ni mucho menos importancia como instrumento de planeación estratégica. Se limitan simplemente a la creación de bancos de datos, comúnmente llamados de “ex alumnos”, cuyo principal objetivo es servir de directorio actualizado para envío de invitaciones a eventos de capacitación y fiestas y celebraciones institucionales. Como se menciona anteriormente, no se ha sabido apreciar por parte de las escuelas de contaduría y administración, la importancia que tiene un programa de seguimiento de egresados, para el desarrollo y soporte de la planeación estratégica de estos centros educativos, y sobre todo me llama la atención, que no se ha sido posible apreciar, la real falta de orientación, o por que no llamarle “tutoría”, que leude requerir un egresado al enfrentarse al campo profesional, además de constituir una invaluable fuente de retroalimentación y medida de evaluación para la institución, sobre el nivel académico de sus egresados, y en consecuencia, monitor del progreso obtenido en su práctica profesional.Key words: Alumni, higher education, follow up, graduates, misión and visionAbstract. During the process of linking the research works in educational centers in the areas of accounting and administration, it has been possible ending up verifying that in several of these educational centers, a formal professional pursuit is not given to alumni or as we said in Mexico, "graduates", of different accounting and administration undergraduate and graduate programs. Furthermore, the few universities that have implemented a follow up system for their graduates, do not grant it the proper credit, as a true instrument of strategic planning. Those systems are simply limited to the creation of databases, commonly "alumni'" whose main objective is to serve as up-to-

La literatura migrante italiana actual transita ciertos espacios heterotópicos que, siguiendo la propuesta teórica de Michel Foucault, inciden especialmente en la creación y el análisis de esos no-lugares que, bien desde la utopía o desde la heterotopía, analizan la situación social a través de la literatura. «Italia» se convierte así en un territorio al que llegar, conocer, habitar pero, sobre todo, desde el que construir realidades otras. Esta perspectiva de la literatura actual no aparece solo en obras escritas «en» italiano y «desde» Italia –como, por ejemplo, Scontro di civiltà per un ascensore a Piazza Vittorio, publicada por Amara Lakhous en 2006; o como las propuesta poéticas transculturales de la Compagnia delle Poete– sino también «en» otras lenguas y «desde» otras miradas –quizá uno de los ejemplos relativamente recientes sea el texto Vergogna tra le due sponde del escritor egipcio Ezzat el Kamhawi, a medio camino entre la novela y el ensayo. Nuestro artículo se centra en el estudio de la construcción de la identidad migrante a través del análisis de la poética del espacio propuesta por Amara Lakhous, evidenciando cómo desde distintas realidades transculturales se aborda y (re)crea actualmente el concepto de «Italia» a partir del discurso literario, a modo incluso de polémico «contra-espacio».Current Italian migrant literature goes along certain heterotopic spaces which, following Michel Foucault’s theoretical proposal, influence especially on the creation and analysis of those no-places that, either from utopia or heterotopia, scrutinise the social situation through literature. Thus, «Italy» becomes a place to get, discover, dwell in but, especially, from which to construe other realities. This perspective of current literature does not only feature in works written «in» Italian and «from» Italy – as, for instance, Scontro di civiltà per un ascensore a Piazza Vittorio, published by Amara Lakhous in 2006; or as transcultural poetic proposal by the Compagnia delle Poete– but also «in» other languages and «from» other stances – one of the most recent texts is perhaps Vergogna tra le due sponde by the Egyptian writer Ezzat el Kamhawi, midway between novel and essay. This articles focuses on studying the construction of migrant identity by analysing the poetics of space proposed by Amara Lakhous, showing how the idea of «Italy» is currently dealt with and recreated in literary discourse from distinct transcultural realities, even in a polemical «counter-space» way.

La iconografía del mito de Prometeo se basa en las fuentes escritas, pero no se representan todos los episodios del mito. Durante el siglo vii a.C, el que más aparece representado es el del castigo. La liberación por Heracles es el preferido en el siglo vi a.C, mientras que en el siglo v a.C. las imágenes nos presentan a Prometeo entre unos sátiros. Durante los siglos siguientes, el tema principal es el de la creación del hombre, sobre todo en los sarcófagos.The iconography of Prometheus' myth is based on the textual sources, but the different episodes of the myth are not represented in greek art. The episode of punishment is the most represented during the vii century b.C The reléase by Herakles is represented in the v century b.C, whereas in the v century b.C. the images show Prometheus among satyrs. During the next centuries the leit-motiv is the creation of the human being.

<p>La generación de nuevas empresas es una acción preponderante para el desarrollo y crecimiento de cualquier economía, puesto que contribuye a crear nuevos empleos; sin embargo, en algunos países como México, no se ha fomentado esta práctica, por lo que los emprendedores no cuentan con ninguna orientación o capacitación que les permita generar empresas competitivas. Por ello, es importante definir cómo es que se da este proceso emprendedor, pero se debe recordar que este proceso se presenta en la mayoría de las re- giones o países, por lo que, sin duda, habrá demasia- das similitudes y algunas diferencias; no obstante, para efectos de procesos de investigación, deberán adaptarse a las diferentes condiciones políticas, eco- nómicas y sociales. Se pretende, con el presente trabajo, identificar las características, habilidades y motivaciones de los emprendedores, sobre todo para entender cómo pue- de impulsarse la creación de nuevas empresas y qué acciones se deben realizar para evitar que cierren en el corto plazo, así como que se garantice su fortale- cimiento, generando con ello información que sirva de base para la toma de decisiones por parte de los diferentes actores que intervienen en este proceso.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>The creation of new enterprises is a leading action for the development and growth of any economy. Along with it, comes the creation of new jobs. However, in some countries, such as Mexico, this practice has not been encouraged; hence, the entrepreneurs don’t have proper guidance and training to generate competitive companies. Therefore, it is important to define the entrepreneurial process. Take into account that it is present in different regions all over the world and developed according to the conditions of each region. For the sake of the research, this process will be adapted to specific political, economic and social conditions. This paper will identify the characteristics, skills and motives of entrepreneurs to understand how to develop and promote new businesses, as well as identify the actions that should be taken to prevent short-term closing and ensure their capacity. This information can be used as a basis for decision-making by various stakeholders involved in this process</p><p><strong><br /></strong></p>
