The Institute of Spanish Studies was established in 1950 in cooperation with the Universities of San Francisco and Valencia. In 1985 the Institute became an independent program; at present it is associated with Cedarville University. Classes in Valencia are held at the American Institute, with its own fully equipped premises. In addition, the Institute of Spanish Studies has established collaboration agreements with other American Institutions such as Oral Roberts University, Marywood University, Framingham University, and others. Credits for the courses taken at the Institute of Spanish Studies may be obtained directly from Cedarville University. Experience We offer a proven method to acquire in-depth knowledge of the Spanish language, literature and culture. In addition to regular classes, our program of cultural activities and direct contact with Spanish people are ideal ways to attain this objective. The faculty is composed of highly qualified professors from Spanish Universities, and most US educational institutions accept credits for our courses. The Institute is proud of having had over 20,000 satisfied students since 1950. Many American colleges and universities have sponsored our Institute and entrusted us with their students. Personal attention At the Institute, our students come first. The small classes and individual attention paid to each student allow very close interaction between students and teachers. As a result, most students talk about the feeling of being in a large family, where their personal needs are addressed. Location The best place to learn Spanish is unquestionably the country of origin. To be in Spain is to have access to its rich history and culture, to be studied and enjoyed in depth through its monuments and landscapes. Spain’s location and its integration with Europe are perfect for students to travel to other countries during weekends or vacation, using excellent means of transportation by bus, train or airplane. The Institute of Spanish Studies is located in the university area of Valencia, in a residential area near “Los Viveros,” the largest park in the city. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from the school to the historical downtown area and 15 minutes from to the beach by tram. This enchanting city offers a most splendid site to any person seeking the culture and personality of Spain. 4 HOUSING We have chosen all our families after a rigorous selection process to make sure that you will feel at home. The distance from the host family to the Institute is under 30 minutes, walking or by bus. The home stay includes 3 meals a day, laundry and room cleaning once a week. During the home stay a student will have his/her own room (single or shared depending on your selected option) and will be able to use the rest of the common areas such as living/dining room, kitchen, bathroom. We recommend a home stay for all our students. In this way the student will learn more about Spanish culture and customs and will have more opportunities to practice Spanish. If you prefer not to stay with a host family. We can help you find another type of accommodation. Please contact us. VALENCIA Valencia is an ideal location to spend time learning Spanish. With one million inhabitants, Valencia is neither too big nor too small. It is the third largest city in Spain, large enough to offer a rich variety of culture and entertainment, such as theaters, expositions, conferences, concerts, sport activities, etc., and small enough for the visitor to know and enjoy. Among the many festivities that Valencia has, we will mention the Fallas Festival Declared Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (March 15th to March 19th) with its fireworks and the July Fair - July 18th to July 31st, with its matchless flower battle. Valencia’s Mediterranean weather means mild, sunny winters, and warm summers to enjoy the beach. It can’t get any better! Conveniently connected to all major cities in Spain, Valencia is located 220 miles from Madrid, 220 miles from Barcelona, 500 miles from Sevilla and 130 miles from the Island of Mallorca. This enchanting city offers a most splendid site to any person seeking the culture and personality of Spain. Valencia offers a wide variety of cultural activities such as lectures, concerts, festivals and museums. For those who like swimming and sunbathing, several beaches along the Mediterranean seashore offer a special attraction. Visits and activities will be organized throughout the summer and the school year. During the school term as in the Summer Sessions, some Saturday excursions to nearby places have been planned as described in the program. These activities will enable students to enjoy full access to the Spanish cultural treasures and to engage in social relations with a wide variety of students and scholars of Spain. These excursions will be free of any extra charge. 5 PROGRAMS 2022 - June Summer Sessions (up to 3 courses, 9 credits) - July Summer Sessions (up to 3 courses, 9 credits) - Spring Semester (up to 5 courses, 15 credits) - Fall Semester (up to 5 courses, 15 credits) This programs are complemented with our immersion process with learning outside the classroom, creating a holistic language learning experience.

The rejection of the case sent a message to everyone not to trouble themselves to file more cases and hire lawyers, because those who are affected due to the bad job by the con- tractor and the ministry of public works need to remain silent and accept the reality.

This work focuses on the Punic and the Roman temples and aims to define their conservation state and provenance of construction materials through their minero-petrographic and physical-mechanical characterization. In addition, artificial geomaterials used in restoration works comprising a partial anastylosis and a consolidation intervention on the monument, were investigated to evaluate the aesthetic, petrographic and petrophysical compatibility with the original materials. The results indicate that Punic builders preferred to use a porous sandstone coming from Citation: Columbu, S.; Gaviano, E.; at least few kilometres away from the site. By contrast, Roman builders opted for the use of the less Costamagna, L.G.; Fancello, D. porous and harder local metadolostones, more difficult to quarry and to hew but promptly available Mineralogical-Petrographic and Physical-Mechanical Features of the in the surrounding area.

  • Heritage Sustainability of the Territory: Photogrammetric Survey of the Castle of Beas De Segura (Jaén, Spain)
    sustainability Article Heritage Sustainability of the Territory: Photogrammetric Survey of the Castle of Beas de Segura (Jaén, Spain) Pablo Manuel Millán-Millán 1,* and José Miguel Fernández-Cuadros 2 1 Architectural Projects Department, University of Seville, 41012 Seville, Spain 2 Beas de Segura Town Hall, 23280 Beas de Segura, Jaén, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-680-785-662 Abstract: Beas de Segura is an ancient village located in the valley of the Sierra de Segura, at the gateway to the Sierra de Cazorla, Segura y las Villas (Jaén, Spain). This territory has been inhabited by different cultures, from the Palaeolithic to the present day, giving rise to a complex urban fabric in which relevant architectural and archaeological elements still survive. The coexistence of these heritage structures with the inhabited domestic architecture has generated significant conflicts of coexistence, resulting in an accelerated process of physical and social deterioration of this increasingly impoverished area. Drawing, together with all the techniques that derive from it, is a necessary and precise source of knowledge and communication for understanding the territory, however complex it may be. This potential, applied to a heritage and social reality such as that of the Castle and Fortress of Beas de Segura (Jaén), allows for processes to be revealed, actions to be ordered, and interventions to be proposed. This article brings together the results of research carried out in this Citation: Millán-Millán, P.M.; area of the Sierra de Segura, in which graphic expression, combined with the study of materials, Fernández-Cuadros, J.M.
