DOCUMENTACIÓN GRÁFICA 1.- INTRODUCCIÓN Pedro Román Martínez (1878-1948) fue un intelectual y artista nacido en Alcaraz (Albacete) que desarrolló gran parte de su actividad cultural y docente en la ciudad de Toledo desde finales del siglo XIX hasta mediados del XX. Se dedicó fundamentalmente a la pintura y a la fotografía. Fue profesor de la Escuela de Artes y Oficios Artísticos y uno de los fundadores de la Real Academia de Bellas Artes y Ciencias Históricas de Toledo, llegando a ser Director. Aficionado a la arqueología, plasmó en la fotografía y en la pintura una serie de yacimientos muy importantes, lo que resultó ser muy útil para su conservación posterior. Pero es gracias, fundamentalmente, al trabajo de su nieto Lorenzo Andrinal Román, investigador tenaz que ha sabido recopilar minuciosamente datos y documentos, con el respaldo de la Diputación Provincial de Toledo, que la obra de este artista está viendo la luz, mediante exposiciones fotográficas, publicaciones y conferencias. 1 A principios de 2010 la Diputación Provincial de Toledo y la familia del artista firmaron un Protocolo para la constitución del Fondo Pedro Román Martínez.

  • 1 One of Many Interesting Demo-Geographic Processes In
    TOPIC/SESSION 401 (REGIONAL AND URBAN ISSUES) GUIDELINES OF SECOND HOMES LOCATION IN SPANISH URBAN POPULATION: SOCIAL DEMOGRAPHIC AND TERRITORIAL ANALYSIS. JUAN ANTONIO MÓDENES CABRIZO Department of Geography, Autonomous University of Barcelona and Demographic Studies Centre JULIAN LÓPEZ COLÁS Demographic Studies Centre (Barcelona, Spain) BRENDA YÉPEZ MARTÍNEZ Demographic Studies Centre (Barcelona, Spain) One of many interesting demo-geographic processes in Spain become the expansion of the second homes and the consequent transformation of wide zones close to the big cities, coasts, and interior zones which turned to be increasingly attractive. Most second homes are purchased for personal reasons. In some cases owners use their second home as a sort of refuge to temporarily escape their urban environment. Part of this demand, specially in the Mediterranean coast occurs because the international request attracted by the climate, the differential level in life standards, and the present transport facility. Nonetheless, the internal demand is very important and continues to grow. If in 1991, 12% of the Spanish resident homes possessed a secondary household, in 2001 it was already increasing to 15%. Almost one of each seven homes is immersed in multiple residence strategy. Diverse studies have demonstrated the interactions between housing characteristics, those related to the habitual residences and the possession of second homes. Generally they have concluded that the main explanatory factors are, on one hand, a dense and compact habitat, and by other hand, the socio-demographics and socioeconomic status of secondary residence users. Nevertheless, the guideline of location of this type of housing and its interaction with homes characteristics seems to be a less treated subject.

Valley of the Fallen, near Madrid Despite living in the shadow of Europe’s only remaining monument to a fascist leader – General Francisco Franco – I had not visited this striking but sinister place since 1993 when I was given short shrift for asking awkward questions. I expected the reception to be dierent 25 years on and you could call it that. The Valle de los Caidos, 50km from Madrid, is Franco’s OTT tribute to ‘the heroes and martyrs of the Crusade’ – a monolithic monument to those who ‘fell for God and for Spain in the Holy War against indels, Masons, Marxists, homosexuals and feminists’.

The subject we are dealing with here was, in turn, particularly significant in the Granada school, the context into which we can slot Pedro de Mena’s early artistic period or stage. These types of devotional Passion images were part of the religious worship of the day, and were adapted to the demands and requirements of the Council of Trent, the famous decree dealing with the worship and veneration of holy images2, partly conceived of as a way of highlighting the painful aspects of the Passion in order to elicit an emotive response in believers. Pedro de Mena adapted his art to these exigencies with sublime skill, working the most expressive elements in an exceptional fashion and creating works that invited the viewer to prayer. His sculptures were intended to be venerated in the privacy of chapels, convents and palaces, with the aim of maximizing their emotional charge and encouraging an intimate visual connection and communication between the believer and the image depicted.

THE POEMS The Arabic texts of these poems, with a Spanish translation and relevant bibliography, are to be found in García Gómez 1985. However, most of the emendations to the Arabic proposed by García Gómez have been ignored, in favour of the text of the inscriptions themselves. The free English translations (by Nadia Jamil and JJ) that follow have been made specially for this lecture; amongst several interweaving strands of meaning, they follow only those most important for the argument proposed.
