Modernismo : architecture and design in Catalonia(
Book
)
9 editions published in 2003 in English and held by 271 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Catalan modernismo, a cultural and artistic style of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, was the Spanish equivalent of the Arts and Crafts movement and Art Nouveau, the German Werkbund and the Viennese Secession. The common denominator of these movements was the ambition to develop a new concept of beauty based on the creative essence of humankind. This comprehensive study, containing a wealth of information not previously available in English, focuses on all aspects of modernismo. Insightful essays discuss the geographic focus of modernismo, Catalonia and its vibrant capital city, Barcelona, and its historical and social context. Architecture was greatly influenced by modernismo, and various practitioners -- Antoni Gaudí, Lluís Domènech i Montaner, Josep Puig i Cadafalch -- developed personal styles based on patterns inspired by nature. Painting, sculpture, and music were equally affected by the times, moving away from academicism and toward spontaneous and personal creative impulses. All essays are extensively illustrated with spectacular color photographs, showing modernismo's most important buildings, such as Gaudí's Sagrada Familia and Palau Güell; intricate furniture, stained glass, and jewelry; graphic design, notably periodicals and sheet music; and a portfolio of paintings

La corrupción política en la España contemporánea : un enfoque interdisciplinar by
Borja de Riquer(
Book
)
10 editions published in 2018 in Spanish and held by 57 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
La corrupción política se ha convertido hoy en una de las principales preocupaciones de los españoles. Son muchos los que la consideran un problema de primera magnitud porque afecta de manera peligrosa a la confianza en la política y a la calidad de nuestra democracia. Para analizar con rigor cómo ha sido posible llegar a una situación tan grave como la presente, esta obra ofrece una serie de aproximaciones de carácter interdisciplinar (historia, ciencia política, economía, derecho penal, etc.) que contemplan los dos últimos siglos de la historia española, así como aspectos relevantes de los estudios europeos sobre esta lacra
