El Reino De Este Mundo Entre La Magia Y La Música, Francisco López Sacha

Revista Surco Sur

Carpentier ha conseguido el traspaso a otra realidad para crear un nuevo método y un nuevo realismo literario, del que serán deudores todos sus epígonos: Gabriel García Márquez, Carlos Fuentes, Mario Vargas Llosa y, en menor medida, Julio Cortázar, los cuatro Beatles del boom. Que los fragmentos de esa explosión, con el tiempo, hayan alcanzado a otros escritores como el portugués José Saramago, la norteamericana Toni Morrison, o el valenciano Manuel Vicens, demuestra el alcance de El reino de este mundo y su importancia en la conformación de un estilo, un sistema de valores literarios y una cosmovisión que integra …

Iríamos A Tampa, Carmen Díaz

Revista Surco Sur

Una visita a Ybor City en busca de “los predios que un día visitara nuestro héroe nacional, cuando organizaba su guerra necesaria, recaudaba fondos y daba discursos de patente sabiduría y capacidad premonitoria. Queríamos respirar el aire que respiraban nuestros tabaqueros, asentados alrededor de esta bahía, buscar su cubanía, si queda alguna. Los cubanos tenemos esa tendencia a buscar nuestras raíces y explorar identidad por donde quiera que vamos”.

Los Orishas De Vilva, Luis Rey Yero

Revista Surco Sur

Los estudios afrocubanos dentro de la cultura nacional constituyen un significativo componente de lo que con sabor culinario definiría el sabio cubano Fernando Ortiz como nuestro ajiaco. No hay dudas que un alto porcentaje de sus tradiciones, sistema de valores, pensamiento religioso y acervo pasó a formar parte de nuestra idiosincrasia junto con etnias que definen al ser cubano. El presente artículo valora las influencias del panteón yoruba en un pintor popular trinitario quien durante años ha venido creando toda una cosmogonía visual acerca de los diferentes Orishas a partir del respeto a su sistema simbólico y atributos que caracterizan …

Validation Of A Pictorial Nausea Assessment Scale In Pediatric Patients With An Oncology Diagnosis, Megan Barbosa, Megan Moody, Kathy Klimpel, Proudfoot James, Judith O'Haver

General Submissions: Presentations (Oral and Poster)

Background: Children who have been diagnosed with cancer often receive emetogenic chemotherapy as part of their treatment protocol. Baxter and colleagues (2011) developed a pictorial scale to assess nausea in children; The Baxter Animated Retching Faces Scale (BARF Scale) which has been validated for pediatric patents aged 7-18 years. A review of the literature indicated that there was no reported standardized method for assessing patient perception of their nausea when undergoing chemotherapy. Hence, effectiveness of therapeutic measures to treat nausea was seldom quantified. The purpose of this study is to compare the BARF scale to the Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) …
