Elle
Enfermée dans la solitude depuis la disparition de mes parents, je tente d'effacer les souvenirs atroces de ce macabre assassinat. J'ai grandi dans la foi. J'ai trouvé un certain apaisement dans la religion chrétienne. Pratiquante assidue, je me rends quotidiennement à l'église de mon quartier. C'est dans ce lieu sacré que j'ai rencontré un homme aussi mystérieux qu'intrigant. Ma famille était étroitement liée à un puissant cartel. Il m'est impossible d'échapper à mon passé, mon destin est désormais scellé...
Lui
Ils m'ont brisé en ôtant la vie de celle que j'aimais.
J'ai accepté cette mission dans le but de me rapprocher de mon ennemi. Je veux détruire leur existence comme ils l'ont fait avec la mienne.
Elle n'était qu'un numéro de dossier, désormais, je donnerais ma vie pour elle... -
Auditory Development and Plasticity
Arthur N. Popper, Richard R. Fay, Karina S. Cramer, Allison B. Coffin
- Springer
- 14 Octobre 2017
- 9783319215303
This volume presents a set of essays that discuss the development and plasticity of the vertebrate auditory system. The topic is one that has been considered before in the Springer Handbook of Auditory Research (volume 9 in 1998, and volume 23 in 2004) but the field has grown substantially and it is appropriate to bring previous material up to date to reflect the wealth of new data and to raise some entirely new topics. At the same time, this volume is also unique in that it is the outgrowth of a symposium honoring two-time SHAR co-editor Professor Edwin W Rubel on his retirement. The focus of this volume, though, is an integrated set of papers that reflect the immense contributions that Dr. Rubel has made to the field over his career. Thus, the volume concurrently presents a topic that is timely for SHAR, but which also honors the pioneer in the field. Each chapter explores development with consideration of plasticity and how it becomes limited over time. The editors have selected authors with professional, and often personal, connections to Dr. Rubel, though all are, in their own rights, outstanding scholars and leaders in their fields. The specific audience will be graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and established psychologists and neuroscientists who are interested in auditory function, development, and plasticity. This volume will also be of interest to hearing scientists and to the broad neuroscience community because many of the ideas and principles associate with the auditory system are applicable to most sensory systems. The volume is organized to appeal to psychophysicists, neurophysiologists, anatomists, and systems neuroscientists who attend meetings such as those held by the Association for Research in Otolaryngology, the Acoustical Society of America, and the Society for Neuroscience.

Incarnating Feelings, Constructing Communities
Ana Maria Forero Angel, Catalina Gonzalez Quintero, Allison B. Wolf
- Palgrave macmillan
- 12 Novembre 2020
- 9783030571115
Attempting to connect the academic discussion around the anthropology and philosophy of the emotions to real-life, everyday experiences, this collection brings together concrete cases and situations arising from specific social and political contexts throughout the Americas. In particular, the authors explore how emotions are generated, constructed, discovered, manipulated, and experienced throughout the Americas by exploring undertheorized topics ranging from investigating the emotional lives of prisoners in Colombia and Brazil who have committed "crimes of passion," to Colombian soldiers' experiences of core "emotional events," to the role of emotions in immigration policy in the United States, to how emotions affect educators' abilities to teach certain material. Taken as a whole, this innovative, interdisciplinary, collection of original essays is not merely comparative, but rather seeks to bring voices and methodologies from North and South America into conversation to generate innovative analyses and ways to reflect about emotions in response to violence, state policies, and educational systems.
