Professionalism by Lydia E. Anderson; Sandra B. Bolt Tirso de Molina (Madrid, 1583-Almazán, Soria, 1648). España. Se dice que era hijo bastardo del duque de Osuna, pero otros lo niegan. Se sabe poco de su vida hasta su ingreso como novicio en la Orden mercedaria, en 1600, y su profesión al año siguiente en Guadalajara. Parece que había escrito comedias y por entonces viajó por Galicia y Portugal. En 1614 sufrió su primer destierro de la corte por sus sátiras contra la nobleza. Dos años más tarde fue enviado a la Hispaniola (actual República Dominicana) y regresó en 1618. Su vocación artística y su actitud contraria a los cenáculos culteranos no facilitó sus relaciones con las autoridades. En 1625, el Concejo de Castilla lo amonestó por escribir comedias y le prohibió volver a hacerlo bajo amenaza de excomunión. Desde entonces sólo escribió tres nuevas piezas y consagró el resto de su vida a las tareas de la orden.

[E-book] Handbook of Social Justice in Loss and Grief by Darcy L. Harris (Editor); Tashel C. Bordere (Editor) The Handbook of Social Justice in Loss and Grief is a scholarly work of social criticism, richly grounded in personal experience, evocative case studies, and current multicultural and sociocultural theories and research. It is also consistently practical and reflective, challenging readers to think through responses to ethically complex scenarios in which social justice is undermined by radically uneven opportunity structures, hierarchies of voice and privilege, personal and professional power, and unconscious assumptions, at the very junctures when people are most vulnerable--at points of serious illness, confrontation with end-of-life decision making, and in the throes of grief and bereavement. Harris and Bordere give the reader an active and engaged take on the field, enticing readers to interrogate their own assumptions and practices while increasing, chapter after chapter, their cultural literacy regarding important groups and contexts. The Handbook of Social Justice in Loss and Grief deeply and uniquely addresses a hot topic in the helping professions and social sciences and does so with uncommon readability.
