    E-Petition Session: TV Licensing, HC 1233

    Petitions Committee Oral evidence: E-petition session: TV Licensing, HC 1233 Monday 1 March 2021 Ordered by the House of Commons to be published on 1 March 2021. Watch the meeting Members present: Catherine McKinnell (Chair); Tonia Antoniazzi; Jonathan Gullis. Other Members present: Rosie Cooper; Damian Collins; Gill Furniss; Gareth Bacon; Jamie Stone; Ben Bradley; Tahir Ali; Brendan Clarke-Smith; Allan Dorans; Virginia Crosbie; Mr Gregory Campbell; Simon Jupp; Jeff Smith; Huw Merriman; Chris Bryant; Mark Eastwood; Ian Paisley; John Nicolson; Chris Matheson; Rt Hon Mr John Whittingdale OBE, Minister for Media and Data. Questions 1-21 Chair: Thank you all for joining us today. Today’s e-petition session has been scheduled to give Members from across the House an opportunity to discuss TV licensing. Sessions like this would normally take place in Westminster Hall, but due to the suspension of sittings, we have started holding these sessions as an alternative way to consider the issues raised by petitions and present these to Government. We have received more requests to take part than could be accommodated in the 90 minutes that we are able to schedule today. Even with a short speech limit for Back- Bench contributions, it shows just how important this issue is to Members right across the House. I am pleased to be holding this session virtually, and it means that Members who are shielding or self-isolating, and who are unable to take part in Westminster Hall debates, are able to participate. I am also pleased that we have Front-Bench speakers and that we have the Minister attending to respond to the debate today.

    De Mentes, Entes Y Dementes: Un Repaso Histórico-Crítico De La Ciencia Ficción Hispanoamericana

    DE MENTES, ENTES Y DEMENTES: UN REPASO HISTÓRICO-CRÍTICO DE LA CIENCIA FICCIÓN HISPANOAMERICANA. Desde sus orígenes hasta nuestro días (1870-2013) by Nelson Darío González A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Spanish and Portuguese University of Toronto © Copyright by Nelson Darío González 2014 González ii DE MENTES, ENTES Y DEMENTES: Critical and Historical Review of Spanish-American Science Fiction (1870-2013) Nelson Darío González Doctor of Philosophy Department of Spanish and Portuguese University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This thesis has two main objectives. On the one hand, it is a historical and critical study of Spanish-American science fiction; on the other, it shows that the Cartesian mind-body dualism is the leading epistemological foundation of this literature. This research and the literary works examined also reveal the increasing ideological validity of biomedicine and brain studies in our understanding of human nature. A substantial number of short stories and novels by famous as well as unknown authors is examined. Ultimately, this thesis shows that Spanish-American science fiction has not only been written since the late 19th century, but that it also has intensively (although unevenly) developed since the second part of the twentieth century. The invisibility of these literary works is explained by the contradicting place of enunciation associated with all the Spanish-American science fiction writers. That is, this thesis considers the fact that science fiction written in “underdeveloped” societies has been regarded as a cultural contradiction. González iii Supplementary Abstract This dissertation encompasses a historical and critical account of Spanish-American science fiction (1870-2013).
