The past year was a year full of memorable changes and events. The first results of these changes were already visible in 2006, but their full impact will be felt in the coming years. At the beginning of the year there were two companies present on the Czech telecommunica- tions market: ČESKÝ TELECOM, a.s. and Eurotel Praha, spol. s r.o. On 1 July 2006, these two companies joined forces to form Telefónica O2 Czech Republic, a.s. (Telefónica O2), the first integrated telecommunications operator in the Czech Republic. Since the beginning of Septem- ber 2006, the new company has been presenting itself and all its products and services under the O2 brand. After winning a mobile licence in Slovakia, we expanded our activities onto the market there. The launch of O2 TV, our IPTV product, introduced us to a new market – multimedia entertainment. Our ongoing efforts to grow our broadband internet and data ser- vices yielded a significant increase in the numbers of customers of these services in both the fixed line and mobile segments. The financial results exceeded our expectations from the beginning of the year. We succeeded in reversing the trend in revenues, which increased slightly in 2006 com- pared to 2005. Although our costs increased, mainly due to the launch of the integration process and the re-branding project, we managed to increase our OIBDA and maintain our margins. Jaime Smith Basterra When, in early March, we announced our plan to merge the two companies, we presented Chairman of the Board of Directors an implementation schedule for the individual integration projects and our targets for 2006 and beyond.

  • Spanish Women's Poetry of the 1980S and 1990S
    PERIPHERAL VISIONS: SPANISH WOMEN’S POETRY OF THE 1980S AND 1990S DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Tracy Manning Muñoz, B.A., M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Professor Stephen J. Summerhill, Adviser Approved by Professor Rebecca Haidt _____________________________ Adviser Professor Elizabeth Davis Graduate Program in Spanish and Portuguese Copyright by Tracy Manning Muñoz 2006 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the use of vision (the sense of sight) and visuality (social seeing) in four women poets of the 1980s and 1990s in Spain: Ana Rossetti, Maria- Mercè Marçal, Aurora Luque, and Montserrat Abelló. All four combine the use of vision and visuality with questions of gender performance and identity as a challenge to normative and culturally constructed gender(ed) behavior. The very fact that the majority of the lyric voices in their poems does not have a defined gender, as many of the people that they view do not, permits them to move from subjectivation to subjectification. Through the manifestation of gender “difference,” the various lyric voices leave behind their status as marginalized members of Western gendered culture. Although not all of the lyric voices are ungendered or ambiguously gendered, sufficient questions of, and challenges to normative gendered behavior exist to warrant including these four poets in the same study, despite their ostensible differences. The theoretical framework for this study focuses on Freudian ideas of voyeurism and exhibitionism as well as pleasurable and unpleasurable looking (scopophilia and scopophobia), Foucauldian ideas of power, and Lacanian ideas of the mirror stage and subjectivity.

  • Paris, New York and Madrid: Picasso and Dalí Before Great International Exhibitions 1
    Paris, New York and Madrid: Picasso and Dalí before Great International Exhibitions 1 Dalí’s attitude toward Picasso began with admiration, which later became competition, and finally a behavior that, still preserving some features of the former two, also included provocative and exhibitionist harassment, simulated or expressed rivalry, and recognition. As we shall see, this attitude reached its climax at the great international exhibitions. On the other hand, the painter from Málaga always stayed away from these provocations and kept a completely opposite, yet watchful and serene behavior toward the impetuous painter from Figueres. Paris 1937, New York 1939 and Madrid 1951: these three occasions in these three major cities —where confrontation between these two great Spanish painters was well-known— are good examples of the climaxes in their confrontation. These international events show their relative divergences, postures, commitments and ways of conceiving art, as well as their positions in relation to Spain. After examining the origins of their relationship, which began in 1926, these three spaces and times shall guide our analysis and discussion of this suggestive relationship. Young Dalí: From his admiration of Picasso to his artistic promotion in Madrid, Paris and New York The cultural centers of Madrid, Paris and New York were particularly important in Picasso’s and Dalí’s artistic influence, as well as scenes of their agreements and disagreements. On the one hand, Picasso had already lived in Madrid at the beginning of the 20th century, while Paris had then become the main scene of his artistic development, and New York played a relevant role in his promotion.
