How much does the world know about Catalonia and its role as a great medieval empire and one of Europe's first nation states?

Principios es el primer tomo de los cinco que componen esta nueva edición de las Obras Completas de José Antonio Primo de Rivera e incorpora todos los escritos de José Antonio de la etapa anterior a la creación de Falange Española.\n\nEste volumen incluye los trabajos universitarios de José Antonio, sus escritos poéticos y una gran cantidad de cartas de contenido estrictamente personal además de sus artículos y discursos políticos durante ese periodo.\n\nAunque José Antonio publica sus primeros artículos en el periódico La Nación en 1929, su labor como comentarista político empieza a partir de la dimisión de su padre como dictador de España el 29 de enero de 1931.\n\nLa muerte de su padre en Paris solo seis semanas después afecta a José Antonio profundamente y es a partir de entonces cuando comienza a dar sus primeros pasos en la política. Su motivación inicial es indudablemente defender la obra y el buen nombre de su padre.\n\nDespués de fracasar en su intento de conseguir un escaño en el primer parlamento de la República, José Antonio es identificado como miembro destacado de la oposición y comienza la persecución por parte de las autoridades. \n\nSus escritos reflejan el desarrollo de sus pensamientos; desde el abogado esencialmente apolítico en 1929 pasando por el articulista conservador y tradicionalista hasta el pensador maduro claramente influido por los movimientos nacionalistas en el resto de Europa.\n\nPrincipios: Obras Completas I finaliza en octubre de 1933 justo antes de la reunión fundacional de Falange Española pero los escritos de José Antonio de este periodo abren una ventana a las motivaciones de un hombre que, a pesar de su corta vida, sería una de las influencias más significativas en la historia de España durante el resto del siglo veinte.\n\nSi miramos el panorama político actual, no solo en España sino en el mundo entero, vemos que las democracias liberales están en crisis de forma parecida a lo que ocurría en los años 30. Por ese motivo, los pensamientos y las advertencias de José Antonio Primo de Rivera siguen igual de actuales más de 80 años después de su muerte.

In this book I take the reader into the depths of the esoteric world beyond mind and offer a recondite examination of that which lies beyond the Universe. I suggest that balance is the primary goal to enlightenment and describe not only why we should but also how we can refocus our meditations for the best results. Emphasis is placed on where to look for balance and the limitations we are faced with when we do. I attempt to reach the core concepts of meditation quickly and lucidly and offer the reader an alternate way of refocusing their meditations and explain the underlying reasons behind the method I use. I describe this as Equipoise Sensory Perception, which I contend is the correct way to refocus ones meditation in order to remain centered on consciousness and the Absolute. Wisdom is just a short breath away for all of us if we look in the right direction. Beyond Equilibrium gives you the direction. Whether you are new to meditation or an adept, you will find the concepts written here worthy of your consideration.

The subject of this research is interaction and language use in an institutional context, the teacher training classroom. Trainer talk is an interactional accomplishment and the research question is: what structures of talk-in-interaction characterise trainer talk in this institutional setting? While there has been research into other kinds of classroom and into other kinds of institutional talk, this study is the first on trainer discourse. The study takes a Conversation Analysis approach to studying institutional interaction and aims to identify the main structures of sequential organization that characterize teacher trainer talk as well as the tasks and identities that are accomplished in it. The research identifies three main interactional contexts in which trainer talk is done: expository, exploratory and experiential. It describes the main characteristics of each and how they relate to each other. Expository sequences are the predominant interactional contexts for trainer talk. But the research findings show that these contexts are flexible and open to the embedding of the other two contexts. All three contexts contribute to the main institutional goal of teaching teachers how to teach. Trainer identity is related to the different sequential contexts. Three main forms of identity in interaction are evidenced in the interactional contexts: the trainer as trainer, the trainer as teacher and the trainer as colleague. Each of them play an important role in teacher trainer pedagogy. The main features of trainer talk as a form of institutional talk are characterised by the following interactional properties: 1. Professional discourse is both the vehicle and object of instruction - the articulation of reflection on experience. 2. There is a reflexive relationship between pedagogy and interaction. 3. The professional discourse that is produced by trainees is not evaluated by trainers but, rather, reformulated to give it relevant precision in terms of accuracy and appropriacy.
