Sommario/riassunto

This volume examines the use of a central concept in the self-definition of any Greek speaking male: Andreia , the notion of courage and manliness. The nature and use of value terms quickly leads the researcher to core issues of cultural identity: through a combination of lexical or semantic and conceptual studies the discourse of manliness and its role in the construction of social order is studied, in a variety of authors, genres, and communicative situations. This book is of interest to students of the classical world, the history of values, gender studies, and cultural historians.

Sommario/riassunto

El punto central de la reflexión de este libro converge en torno a un eje común conformado, de una parte, por una problemática teórica referida a los procesos de constitución del sujeto a través de los cuales se definen las identidades, las pertenencias socioculturales y los saberes que determinan las capacidades y competencias. De otra, por una unidad analítica configurada por las prácticas sociales, pues es a través de éstas que se hace posible discernir los elementos que configuran dichos procesos de subjetivación, así como los campos de la acción del sujeto constituido.

Sommario/riassunto

Since Joshua Steckel began work at a Brooklyn public high school as its first-ever college guidance counselor, every one of the hundreds of graduates he has counseled has been accepted to college, many to top-flight schools with all expenses paid. But getting in is only one small part of the drama of his students' stories. In a riveting work of narrative nonfiction-winner of a Studs and Ida Terkel award-Hold Fast to Dreams follows the lives of ten of Josh's students as they navigate the vast and obstacle-ridden landscape of college in America, where students for whom the stakes of
