Full textThis research is intended to investigate the contributions of three American photographers - David Zingg, George Love and Lew Parrella - for the photojournalism published in Reality magazine, and in what way their jobs are different from what was produced in Brazil until the early 1960s. The importance of the magazine during the military dictatorship regime, added to highlight some of the photographers hired at the time by Editora Abril subsequently obtained in art exhibitions in museums and galleries are some of the elements that justify this study, as well as the lack of published researches focused on these three North American photographers. The time frame chosen for this dissertation is from the first issue of the magazine in April 1966 to the December 1968 edition, when the approval of the Institutional Act No. 5 is instituted in Brazil. This choice is due to the fact that during this period there was still a relative freedom of expression, both within the grafic as textual genres. In addition, it can be consdered the publication\'s biggest stage of social relevance, for during the military dictatorship it raised themes that confronted the regime. The main sources of research used were the copies of the magazine themselves and the recent bibliography on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the 1964 coup in Brazil. Although Reality magazine is already the subject of many studies, it makes room for this research, which is supported at the intersection of the fields the history of photography and politics.

Full textDisons que je me cogne l’orteil à l’instant. Selon le physicalisme, il est possible d’expliquer l’ensemble de ce qui se produit alors de façon purement physique. Ultimement, il s’agit de certaines interactions entre les particules de mon orteil et de celles du mur, qui mènent à des interactions dans mon système nerveux, qui mènent à d’autres interactions dans mon appareil vocal, de façon à ce qu’on entende « Aïe! ». Je crois qu’il manque quelque chose d’important à cette histoire, en l’occurrence l’effet que cela fait de se cogner l’orteil : ma douleur phénoménale à l’orteil. Plus généralement, l’ontologie de la physique n’est pas suffisante pour rendre compte de la conscience phénoménale. La question est de savoir par quoi la remplacer. Dans ce mémoire, j’explore la possibilité d’une ontologie qui ne serait pas physicaliste, mais qui serait quand même naturaliste, c’est-à-dire qu’elle reposerait quand même sur les sciences naturelles. Après tout, la science n’a pas à se limiter à l’ontologie de la physique actuelle. Pour mener à bien cette exploration, je comparerai les deux possibilités qui me semblent les plus plausibles, c’est-à-dire le naturalisme transcendantal de Colin McGinn et le dualisme naturaliste de David Chalmers. McGinn affirme qu’il existe une réponse naturaliste au problème corps-esprit, mais qu’elle n’est pas cognitivement accessible à l’humain, de la même façon que la solution au problème de la gravité n’est pas accessible à l’écureuil par exemple. Chalmers croit au contraire qu’il est bien possible de répondre au problème, à condition d’introduire la conscience phénoménale dans notre ontologie comme une nouvelle entité, comme Newton l’avait fait avec la gravité. J’expliquerai qu’un compromis est en réalité possible entre McGinn et Chalmers. La position de Chalmers est menacée par des paradoxes et des problèmes qui ne seront ultimement réglés qu’en concédant beaucoup de terrain à McGinn.

Full textThe figure of the Messiah in Jewish religious imagination signifies the prophetic yearning for redemption at the end of days, but it also provoked hopes in a strong leader who will bring about social and political redemption. Based on historical models, literature from the twelfth to the twentieth century addressed these "false Messiahs" and in the modern period used them to define and illustrate contemporary catastrophe.
Shlomo Molcho by American Yiddish poet Aaron Glanz-Leyeles and Prince Reuveni by Soviet Yiddish author David Bergelson are two twentieth century poetic historic dramas based on two messianic figures of the sixteenth century. These two modern works are compared in relation to the respective authors' life and times, political and aesthetic outlook, and dramatic powers. The comparison shows the usefulness of the "false Messiah" in dramatizing and expressing difficult contemporary issues.

Its objective is to understand the reasons of the use of this material for the preparation of part of the tools. Thanks to the use of an adapted method, humans' operating process is reconstituted. Different technical and economical behaviours, namely raw material and debitage management, are underlined between both refuges and lead to an important discussion about the prehistoric humans' practices. This study takes into account several factors which may had influenced humans' behaviour depending on considered sites and periods. The quality of the obtained results and the underlined similarities and divergences after computation of several factors, lead to continue researches on this material and proceed with interdisciplinary team

Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016USPCA107.
Full textSoon after he was elected leader of the Conservative Party in 2005, David Cameron signalled his intention to implement a foreign policy based on ‘liberal Conservative’ principles. Cameron distanced himself from the realism that had guided the choices made by Margaret Thatcher and John Major in the aftermath of the Cold War. Therefore, he associated the defence of national interests, as well as the preservation of Britain’s role in the world, to the revival of the liberal tradition. However, he also insisted on the difference between his approach and the excesses of Tony Blair’s interventionism after 2001. The Conservatives, who were part of the Coalition Government that took office in May 2010, rejected the idea of strategic shrinkage, in spite of the existing gap between their ambitions and the limited resources they could allocate to security policy. Through the analysis of two case studies – the signing of the Lancaster House Treaties on 2 November 2010, and the 2011 military intervention in Libya – this thesis examines the factors that influenced the decisions made by the new government, as well as the mechanisms that led to them. By adopting an interpretivist perspective on these events, the thesis studies the traditions, that is to say the historical inheritance that formed the background of the government’s actions, but also the way the various actors involved in that specific area of policy modified that inheritance to respond to the dilemmas created by the emergence of new threats in a context of cuts in government spending and strategic uncertainty

Full textThe subject of this thesis is the Israeli identity and its relationship with the city of Jerusalem. The candidate tried to sketch the features of the research through a reading and an analysis of the novel The Secret Agent of His Majesty of D. Shahar, and on the works of A. B. Yehoshua, especially Mr. Mani. The thesis has been organized in three chapters, to which must be added the introduction and the conclusion. The first chapter is devoted to the representation of Jerusalem in Jewish collective memory. The city is seen as a sacred city, and therefore sacred space, immersed in the sacred time, but it is also a holy city that is characterized by a moral holiness to be achieved in the historical time. In the second chapter, the candidate focuses its attention on the hero's adventure in the Jerusalem of Shahar. The city is immersed in the mythical time of creation, rich in potetialities and in the mythical paradise of childhood time sheltered from the tensions of historical time. The third chapter is dedicated to the adventure of the hero in the Jerusalem of Yehoshua. The candidate has highlighted the problematic relationship between him and his hometown. Yehoshua’s typical character must undergo all the pressures of historical time, and it is often crushed by them. Jerusalem is immersed in the mythic, apocalyptic time. In the conclusion the candidate highlights the fact that we could not conceive the novels of both Shahar and Yehoshua without the texts of the Jewish tradition and therefore without the contribution of the collective past of the Jewish people
Foubert, Jean. "David Lynch et le film noir (1986-1997)." Paris 7, 2002. http://www.theses.fr/2002PA070049.
Full textThis dissertation is essentially concerned in exploring the relation of David Lynch to classic and contemporary American film noir. Our analysis bears on the films "Blue Velvet" (1986), "Twin Peaks : Fire Walk With Me" (1992) and "Lost Highway" (1997) as well as on the television series "Twin Peaks" (1989-1991). It focuses on David Lynch's appropriative and subversive strategies of film noir's narratives conventions and it also deals with the specificities and the innovative qualities of his noirs. Our object was to show how, by reappropriating and renewing Hollywood film noir genre, Lynch celebrates the expressive and creative potential in the cinematographic discourse

Full textAt the turn of the 21st century, British fiction finds itself negotiating conflicting perceptions of vision. In the context of the “visual turn,” it reflects the increasingly influential role that visual technologies and media play in today’s cultural landscape. At the same time, it addresses anxious accounts of what is often presented as a crisis of the visual. For centuries vision was celebrated as the most intellectual of the senses; today, however, it is more often presented as a key component in practices of manipulation and control. Far from standing as a master of the visible world, the seeing subject appears as subjugated, living as he does under constant surveillance, and among the simulacra of the late capitalist spectacle. While taking such concerns into account, contemporary fiction creates optical dispositives that subvert the mechanisms of visual subjectification, and pave the way for new practices of subjectivation. This calls for a shift in the paradigms used to delineate the workings of vision. The novels we analyse here leave behind optical models defined by the binary separation between seeing and seen, subject and object. What they create instead are visual encounters in which one pair of eyes necessarily meets another. The epistemological understanding of visual perception as a vehicle of knowledge is replaced by a political and ethical interpretation of vision: the seeing subject emerges under the gaze of others, whom he acknowledges as his responsibility. In seeing therefore we run the risk that the encounter might go awry, that recognition might turn into misrecognition. This conception of visual experience emphasises the reciprocal structures of discourse and perception within which subjects and meanings emerge, but also reckons with the imperfections inherent in any interactive exchange between seeing and speaking subjects. It suggests that we engage with the phenomenology of reading through the pragmatics of discourse

Full textThis thesis is a study of David Gascoyne's poetry in the light of a threefold crisis. Provided one takes into account its historical moorings (1932-1956 mainly), it questions the link between culture and violence. This crisis, which spreads to difference as the cornerstone of all codes of identity, is manifest in Gascoyne's view of society, art and the body, hence an attempt at regenerating signs. Impurity, abjection and intertextual transformation are the pivotal-albeit highly ambivalenttenets of a poetry based on conversion and reversal. However, this process, which is rooted in alchemy, mythology, religious history and psychoanalysis, does not so much aim at gathering a mass of dislocated fragments into a coherent system endowed with its own code as it displays the illusion of a unifying secret thanks to visual and acoustic devices already mapped out in the author's surrealist period. His later poems are fraught with ambiguities, however much they seem to reflect his quest for a cohesive synthesis. Owing to this conception of modernity, the poem turns out to be a mechanism rather than the locus of a revelation insofar as the interplay of interpretations undermines the myth of orthodox reading. All metaphorical devices are perverted by a process of differentiation, and multiple references are juxtaposed with no such thing as a common ground to unify them, so that ultimately, substitution is eclipsed by dissimilarity. As a consequence, all forms of historical and spatial perspective are challenged. In order to account for the conflictual aspects of Gascoyne's poetry, two paradigms can be derived from this process of differentiation-singularity and measure. Their dialectical relationship enables us to consider the paradoxical unity of David Gascoyne's poetry in terms of aesthetics, ethics, politics and religion as a process of secularization; indeed, the text is removed from the sphere of mysticism to partake in a hermeneutical network instead

Full textIn the late 20th century several fundamental works on the subject of irony were published. Today, irony remains a fashionable topic of literary research. The aim of the present study is not to propose a new definition of irony but to determine if there is a difference between the irony of women-writers and that of men-writers. Four contemporary novelists provide the corpus for this work: Julian Barnes and David Lodge on the one hand, and Muriel Spark and A. S. Byatt on the other hand. The six novels under consideration have been grouped in pairs on the ground of their stylistic and thematic similarities. Flaubert’s Parrot and Possession are both postmodern novels dealing with the topic of literary quest. The Finishing School and Nice Work are variations of the campus novel. England, England and Aiding and Abetting explore the themes of Englishness, authenticity and artifice

Full textThis study aims to examine critically the use of the photography system as a means towards the construction of discourses and a worldview summoned by an enunciator. The analysis' corpus is made up by David Lachapelle's (in the character of the enunciation actor) snapshots collected in his first book, Lachapelle Land (1996). This analysis is based on the discursive semiotics' framework; on Greimas' studies about meaning construction; on sociosemiotics; on plastic semiotics and Jean-Marie Floch's postulations about plasticity's role on signification building; on enhancements of semiotics theory as a theory of social interaction formulated by Landowski and Ana Claudia de Oliveira's contributions about sensible expression as global enunciation that proposes the discursive field of experience between enunciator and enunciatee. The content on the snapshots is considered taking into account the constructions of the enunciator given by means of semantic-syntactic employed as a way to evidence an axiologic system. The shaping elements of the expression level (eidetic, topologic, chromatic e materic) are the plastic resources chosen by the enunciator the sense effect of which is make visible a discourse about the world weavered using the photographic expression system and its sensible exploitation. The enunciative connection is constructed on photography having as discursive basis intertextuality and allowing to infer the enunciator's character by means of the discursive tools employed on the construction of Lachapelle's intertextual enunciation. The enunciatee is summoned to bring forth an interpretative making. It requires knowledge of other artistic works cited on the snapshot and take into considerations the sensible procedures used by the enunciator. Through these cognitive and sensible competences, the enunciator invites the enunciatee to process the collaborative sense construction
O presente estudo analisa o uso do sistema da fotografia como meio para a construção de discursos e de uma visão de mundo colocadas em ação por um enunciador que se destaca por várias especificidades que serão trabalhadas. O corpus de análise é constituído pelas fotografias de David Lachapelle (figura do ator da enunciação instalado) que foram publicadas em seu primeiro livro, intitulado Lachapelle Land, no ano de 1996. O arcabouço teórico é o da semiótica discursiva: os estudos de Greimas sobre a construção de sentido; a semiótica plástica com as postulações de Jean- Marie Floch sobre o papel da plasticidade na formação da significação; a sociossemiótica, suas ampliações enquanto teoria da interação social que Landowski formaliza e as contribuições de Ana Claudia de Oliveira sobre a expressão sensível enquanto enunciação global que propõe o campo discursivo como o lugar de vivenciar experiências entre enunciador e enunciatário. O conteúdo veiculado pelas fotografias é examinado levando-se em conta a construção do enunciador dada por meio de procedimentos sintático-semânticos empregados de modo a evidenciar seu sistema axiológico. Os formantes do plano da expressão (topológicos, eidéticos, cromáticos e matéricos) constituem-se como recursos plásticos escolhidos pelo enunciador cujo efeito de sentido é tornar sensível um discurso sobre o mundo explorado pelo uso do sistema de expressão fotográfico. A construção enunciativa e seus recursos de instalação têm por base discursiva a intertextualidade, sendo possível depreender a figura do enunciador e do enunciatário. Com esse recurso, o enunciatário é chamado a produzir um i fazer interpretativo, que exige o seu reconhecer as outras obras artísticas inseridas na fotografia e levar em conta os procedimentos sensíveis elaborados pelo enunciador. Com essas competências cognitivas e sensíveis é que, pela interação discursiva, o enunciador faz com que o enunciatário processe a construção colaborativa do sentido e a fotografia se afirme enquanto meio comunicativo propositivo de novas visões de mundo

Full textAccording to traditional historiography, Caspar David Friedrich was almost forgotten during several decades following his death in Dresden in 1840. Little known outside his native Germany, it is often said that he was rediscovered through the great retrospective of German nineteenth century art, the Berliner Jahrhundertausstellung, in 1906. The first biography of the artist published in the twentieth century, God, Freedom, Fatherland (Gott, Freiheit, Vaterland, 1915) by the Norwegian art historian, Andreas Aubert, draws attention on the patriotic orientation of some of his paintings. This thesis proposes to discuss different aspects of the reception of his oeuvre, not only in the German, but in the European context of the 19th century. If the painter was not recognized by the historians, he emerged, mainly thanks to his German-scandinavian Pomeranian culture, as a model among Scandinavian artists, who came largely through personal contact with Friedrich himself or via his neighbour and friend, the Norwegian painter J. C. C. Dahl. In the heart of intense debates in Germany and Scandinavia, landscape painting became a subject of political interest. This thesis is pointing the heritage of Friedrich aesthetics in the birth of Nordic painting traditions, beyond resonances and visual affinities between works. Following this itinerary through Nordic countries, reaching France, permits to question again the reception of Friedrich in French artistic milieux, where he never was on public display

Full textThe thesis demonstrates that David Herbert Lawrence and Georges Bataille shared the same philosophical heritage. They drew inspiration from the theories of German Romanticism and Nietzsche. Therefore, they searched for the sacred in the life of the body and in a Dionysic ecstatic experience. They wanted collective turmoil without immanentism, a revolution which wouldn’t be jeopardised by the rise of a fascist dictator. However, their political attempts did not succeed. They realised then that sacredness was only to be reached through literary creation. Both writers thought that erotic ecstasis could lead to a sacred experience. Erotic jouissance amounts to a “little death” in which the ego is lost while the individual’s limits disappear. Yet, the two writers most differentiate themselves with regard to the literary devices they use in order to depict such an experience

Full textThe seeming fragmentation of David Markson’s writing from Reader’s Block (1996) to TheLast Novel (2007) is combined with a form of continuity led by a narrative voice whoseapparent vanishing is merely staged. Despite his claiming to reject all fictional conventions inThis is Not a Novel (2001), Markson proves paradoxically attached to the novel as a form,exploring the multiple possibilities of the genre rather than driving it to exhaustion. His styleis both minimalist and profuse, and leaves much unsaid despite existing – if occasional –metafictional comments. A close reading of the miscellaneous works by David Markson(1927-2010) shows that his extensive use of quotations, making up the main material of hislater works, was a very early hallmark of his writings. For all their apparently radicaldifference, his later texts still bear signs that can be traced back to previous literaryexperiments as varied as detective novels, an anthology, a western, poetry, quasiautobiographyand interior monologue. Malcolm Lowry’s influence on Markson’s workreaches beyond his early study of Under the Volcano and his own « Mexican novel ». Placingthe text under close scrutiny by means of linguistic tools, mainly enunciative and cognitive,provides evidence of the linking role of anaphoric devices and of a subjective handling of adeceitfully disconnected and neutral writing. The search for breaks and breaches has nowbecome conventional, but actually conceals what can be revealed when looking forconnections. Indeed, continuity still underpins sentence, text and work, despite a (partial)splitting of the text into fragments and a (relative) upsetting of linear order

Full textThe intermedial Work of Lynch deconstructs canons: it says this monster, formal organization which does not respect the symbolic economy, the one who becomes emancipated of this myth of the archetype, on which identical constructions are based. Which mechanisms produce the genre, the archetype (Aristotle), and consistently the exception? Which devices are elaborated to generate these iterative representations (J. -L. Déotte)? A model always promulgates corrections and disqualifications ( Derrida); against it, Lynch proposes an irreverent use of the notions of anomaly and defect. Arbitrary partitions distinguish the taboo and the sacred (M. Douglas). Let us question these limits which attest to a totality by protecting its homogeneity: the frame, predicative structure, to denounce its artificiality. Let us criticize the comprehensiveness that Beauty supposes: Lynch put dislocation of bodies forward against it, generating this set, not an indivisible and exclusive unity, but network of linkings. And let us envisage strategies thwarting the reproduction of the same. Against the invariant of the summetria, the négentropie (R. Caillois). Against these hierarchies distinguishing good and bad forms, the critical solutions of bas matérialisme (G. Bataille), performativity (J. Butler), informe (Y. -A. Bois, R. Krauss). Lynch parodies this standard which leads to the loss of identity, insisting: viability and reproducibility are not indossociably coupled. This for a definition of the monster in art, fertile, métastable, in progress ( Lyotard): an operation proposing a re-meaning of the established standards - the good shape of the individual, of the work, and the ideal of the practices

Full textOrality has a sound and visual recurrent existence in the work of David Lynch. It is the main thread in the relation between the sound and the image and probably constitutes the nodal point in the cinematic aesthetic of this American artist; so much so that he makes it an identity trait, an obsessive theme of his cinematographic creation. Coming from the Latin os, oris, the term orality allows to treat everything related to the mouth, the point of contact between the interior of the body and the external environment. Orality pertains to a human anatomical mechanism, but it is not limited to sound production - it is not only concerned with speech and the functional aspect of communication. It is also a visual motif represented by its other strategic location: the face (a term also derived from Latin os, oris). There is thus a visual/visible orality and a sound/audible orality. The exploration into orality in David Lynch's work takes the form of an anatomical and an organic journey leading from the mouth to the ear; from visual representation and sound matter to its perception/reception. What is important in the final count is to observe how orality manifests itself and envisages a creative whole which produces an encounter between the performance arts, the visual arts, and the sound material

Full text. This study is about fantasy’s major transformation in the XXth century. In the course of XIXth century. A main form of fantasy fiction developped. Which aim was to give rise to fear in the lector's mind, by confronting supernatural events to a representation of reality. In the XXth century, new types of fantasy fiction appear, and since the end of the 1930s, themes and narrative techniques were largely renewed. Latin-american "neofantasy fiction is a striking example of this renewal. This transformation is characterized by the intellectualization of the genre ; the supernatural part of the story tends to be internalized, many tales relate an adventure of the mind. In this case, fantasy fiction is not about strange or impossible events: it is about aconception of realitv

Full textWE OFFER A SERIES OF READINGS OF PROVIDENCE, A FILM PRODUCED BY ALAIN RESNAIS IN 1976. THESE ARE BASED ON A WIDE RANGE OF CONTEMPORARY THEORIES OF LITERATURE AND FILM AND WE ESPECIALLY DRAW THE READER'S ATTENTION TO THE NOTION OF INTERTEXTUALITY. THE INTERTEXTUAL NETWORK EXPLORED IN PROVIDENCE INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING: THE SCRIPT; A STUDY OF THE IMAGINARY ORIGINS OF THE FILM BASED ON RESNAIS' PARALLEL INTERESTS AT THE TIME IT WAS PRODUCED; AN ANALYSIS OF THE FILM ITSELF (SOUND TRACK, PICTURE AND EDITING) AND ASPECTS OF META-FILM; AND FINALLY, AN OVERVIEW OF ALL OF RESNAIS' FILMS AND HOW THEY RELATE TO PROVIDENCE. OUR APPROACH LIES WITHIN THE REALM OF COMPARATIVE STUDIES (FILM AND LITERATURE). THE ORIGINAL VERSION OF THE SCRIPT IS IN ENGLISH, WHICH LEADS US TO COMPARE IT TO THE FRENCH TRANSLATION AND TO EXAMINE PROBLEMS RELATED TO DUBBING AND THE TRANSPOSITION FROM ONE SOCIAL, LINGUISTIC AND CULTURAL SETTING TO ANOTHER. AS FOR THE ORIGINS OF PROVIDENCE, WE ACKNOWLEDGE THE INTERTEXTUALITY BETWEEN THAT FILM AND THE WORKS OF THE BIOLOGIST, HENRI LABORIT, WITH WHOM RESNAIS COLLABORATED WHILE PRODUCING MON ONCLE D'AMERIQUE IN 1980. ONE ALSO FINDS IN PROVIDENCE TRACES OF RESNAIS' RESEARCH ON THE AMERICAN WRITER, H. P. LOVECRAFT, DONE IN THE 70'S. AS FAR AS THE ANALYSIS OF PROVIDENCE IS CONCERNED, IT INCLUDES A DIAGRAM DONE ON GRAPH PAPER SHOWING THE DICHOTOMY BETWEEN NIGHT AND DAY IN PROVIDENCE, THE SPEED AND length OF EACH FILM SHOT AND THE UNITY OF PLACE (INSIDE OUTSIDE). THESE ASPECTS REVEAL MORE THAN MOST THE INNER WORKINGS OF THE IMAGINATION AND THOUGHT PROCESSES IN RESNAIS' WORK

Full textEsta tesis analiza la percepción paranoica como herramienta para la emancipación de las mujeres en La subasta del lote 49 de Thomas Pynchon y Mulholland Drive de David Lynch. La novela y la película se desarrollan en California, escenario que crea condiciones específicas y favorables para el desarrollo de varias obsesiones y teorías de la conspiración. Sin embargo, en estos autores, la paranoia no tiene necesariamente una connotación negativa, sino que, más bien, permite a las protagonistas femeninas “proyectar un mundo” propio, desconectado de las narrativas patriarcales creadas para gobernar sus vidas y limitar sus libertades. Estos autores presentan, pues, la paranoia como un modo de pensar y la utilizan como un medio de autoprotección contra la insoportable idea del caos que reina sobre las vidas de sus protagonistas y también como una herramienta de control por parte de las autoridades y las instituciones que ostentan poder. Por lo tanto, esta tesis incluye una descripción de la paranoia cultural a través de la historia y política de los EE.UU. y a través de la literatura y el arte, especialmente de la época posmoderna. A esta contextualización le sigue el análisis en profundidad de la obra completa de Pynchon y Lynch, con el foco en su uso narrativo de la paranoia así como en el significado de California como escenario de sus “trilogías californianas”: La subasta del lote 49, Vineland y Vicio propio de Pynchon y Carretera perdida, Mulholland Drive e Inland Empire de Lynch. Los dos últimos capítulos de la tesis están dedicados ya específicamente a La subasta del lote 49 y Mulholland Drive y al análisis de la busca paranoica de la emancipación de sus protagonistas mujer —Oedipa Maas y Betty Elms/Diane Selwyn. Estos capítulos incluyen también una descripción de la segunda, tercera y cuarta ola del feminismo en los EE.UU., que enmarcan el desarrollo de estos personajes. La tesis cierra con una comparación de las dos maneras de presentar el paranoico camino a la emancipación de las mujeres americanas en las dos obras.
