Mujeres de apocalipsis
(2016)
Mujeres del Apocalipsis propone nuevas lecturas de género en relación a las mujeres piadosas que habitaron Nueva España en el siglo XVIII. El estudio sebasa en un corpus de los archivos de sus procesos inquisitoriales, mucho de ellos aún indéditos. Estas mujeres ganaron libertad y accedieon a una parcial autonomía en el mundo colonial. A través de su lectura, se descubren las estrategías tácticas a través de las cuales las beatas pactaron una nueva forma de se mujer en aquella era.
Subcultures creating culture
(2016)
The purpose of this work is to apply the methods of textual semiotics to subcultures, in particular to the little known glam subculture. Subcultures have been the main research field of the Birmingham Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies, known for its interdisciplinary approach, and for its focus on the creative aspects of subculture. Hebdige, in particular, introduced many semiotic elements in his work, as the aberrant decoding after Eco and the cultural creativity via bricolage after Lévi-Strauss. His definition of subculture as symbolic resistance has been criticized by the following post-subcultural researchers for its abstractness and lack of cohesion.
Semiotics eventually have been expelled from the set of tools used in sociology for the analysis of subcultures. Nowadays, the studies on subcultures have a strong ethnographic focus. Due to terminological proliferation and a descriptive approach, it is difficult to compare them on a common basis.
Textual semiotics, through the concept of semiosphere developed by Lotman, allows to go back to the intuitions of Hebdige, organizing the semiotic elements already present in his work into a wider system of interpretation. The semiosphere offers a coherent theoretical horizon as a basis for further analysis, and a new methodological perspective focusing on the cultural. In this thesis for the first time the work of Lotman is applied to the study of a subculture.
