El repertorio biogràfico que hoy publicamos constituye el primer resultado de una investigación más amplia sobre el tema La formación científica y la actividad espacial de los Ingenieras Militares en España durante el siglo XVIII, que se inició en el curso de doctorado impartido por el Dr. Horacio Capel en 1979-80. Dicho trabajo se inserta, a su vez, en un plan de investigación que trata de reconstruir la historia de la geografía española y de las ideas acerca del espacio desde la Revolución Científica del siglo XVII hasta nuestros dias. Aspecto esencial de esta investigación es el analisis sociolégico de algunas comunidades y corporaciones científicas que, junto con los geógrafos, han desarrollado una reflexión acerca del espacio, contribuido a su representación cartográfica o bien realizado algún tipo de intervención espacia1 que implique la transformación de la superficie terrestre. Se trata de investigar el funcionamiento de las comunidades científicas y los factores sociales que influyen en la evolución del pensamiento geográfico, poniendo especial énfasis en la incidencia de la profesionalización e institucionalización en el desarrollo de la ciencia.
The categories of informative versus interpretive (reportage) journalism are viewed as arbitrary divisions; various definitions of reportage are offered, one of which is 'discovery of a reality.' Reportage can do the following: (1) represent an investigation; (2) provide antecedents, comparisons, & consequences; (3) refer to a general social situation or particular social fact; (4) include analysis & interpretation; & (5) establish conclusions. It can also provide an ample enough context so that the present can be treated as history. In in-depth reportage, anecdotes, news, chronicles, interviews, & biographies may be interwoven with social structural factors which explain the meaning of situations & events. Some reflections on 'pure facts,' neutrality, & social reality are offered; it is observed that the reporter sees reality as it is presented to his/her eyes. The information offered to the journalist may be only partially objective & may in fact be out of context & a distortion of a larger reality. That the reporter interprets the facts does not necessarily contradict objectivity; discussing causes & examining meaning are acceptable practices. Journalists have a responsibility to uncover the manipulations underlying the status quo & to offer social critique. S. Whittle.
An interesting contribution of information about musical life at Sigiienza cathedral in the mid 16th century is offered to specialists in the present article. Apart form the importance of organs, organists, choir singers and "ministriles" during bishop don Fadrique de Portugal's pontificate (1512-1532), the authors point out two short but very important notes for the history of the Renaissance Hispanic music. The first of them refers to Mateu Fletxa "the Elder" (1481-1553), who in 1544 was teaching the Infantas of Castile; from 1525, when he leaves service at Lérida cathedral, until 1544, his biography lacks a long period of time: it is meaningfully filled up by a document coming from the Chapter Acts of Sigiienza. This note is dated in 1539 (without any further details) and makes a reference to a sum of money paid to Mateu Fletxa for having served as Chapel Master, therefore hinting his being of service at this cathedral in a period circa 1539. The next is that of the stay of Hernando de Cabezón, the son of the Royal Chapel organist Antonio de Cabezón, at Sigiienza cathedral. He is mentioned as an organist since December 3rd, 1563; any how he could not take up his post for good until the 29th of November 1564, after having been submitted to a inquiry about his ascendancy's pureness: this fact also proves the aggravation of the racial policy at the time of bishop Pedro Gasca (1561-1567). ; Cet article offre aux étudieux une série interessante de renseignements sur la vie musicale de la Cathédrale de Sigiienza pendant la moitié du XVIe siècle. En dehors de l'importance de l'orgue, des organistes, des chanteurs et des ménestrels pendent le pontifiat de l'évêque Fradrique de Portugal (1512-1532), ses auteurs soulignent deux nouvelles britêves, mais d'une grande importance pour l'histoire de la musique hispanique de la Renaissance. L'une d'elles fait référence à Mateu Fletxa "le vieux", (1481-1553), qui en 1544 est Maître des Infantas de Castilla; il existe depuis 1525, date dans laquelle i1 abandone le service de la Cathédrale de Lleida, jusqu'en 1544, un vaste lapsus dans sa biographie, qui sera rempli de fason significative par un document des Actes Capitulaires de Sigiienza. Cette annotation correspond á l'année 1539 (sans aucune autre précision de la date) et fait référence àune somme d'argent payée a Mateu Fletxa pour ses services comme Maître de Chapelle, et qui démontre par conséquent que pendant une période reliée à1539 preta ses services dans cette Cathédrale. La nouvelle suivante correspond au séjour dlHernando de Cabezón, fils de l'organiste de la Capilla Real Antonio de Cabezón, dans la Cathédrale de Sigiienza. Depuis le 3 décembre 1563 i1 est cité comme organiste; de toute fason, i1 ne pu occuper definitivament sa place que le 29 novembre 1564, aprts avoir été soumis àdes recherches sur la pureté de son ascendence: le fait démontre de même la montée de la politique raciale à l'époque de I'évêque Pedro Gasca (1561-1567).
