Los Sitios Reales como recurso profesional (URJC)

Los Sitios Reales han sido contemplados tradicionalmente como lugares atractivos por sus características artísticas y arquitectónicas. No obstante, hoy en día constituyen un bien patrimonial de primera magnitud que requiere de un estudio exhaustivo a partir de un enfoque interdisciplinar. nEl curso interdisciplinar supone una respuesta a las estrategias que en el continente europeo vienen desarrollándose para la revalorización del patrimonio cultural. Al fin y al cabo, los Sitios Reales, lejos de ser una particularidad española, respondían, a lo largo de los siglos, a los ideales de las monarquías europeas.

A través de la historia, la geografía, las nuevas tecnologías, etc. pretendemos revelar el verdadero significado de estos lugares emblemáticos de nuestro pasado común y patrimonio y cómo ponerlos en valor como productos útiles para la gestión cultural, el ámbito educativo, el sector turístico y del marketing.

Este MOOC se inscribe dentro del proyecto de investigación “La Herencia de los Reales Sitios. Madrid, de corte a capital (Historia, Patrimonio y Turismo” (H2015/HUM3415) y cuenta con la colaboración de entidades, como el Museo Nacional de Artes Decorativas o la Fundación MAPFRE, o empresas, como Droup.

Greek and Roman Mythology (Coursera)

Myths are traditional stories that have endured over a long time. Some of them have to do with events of great importance, such as the founding of a nation. Others tell the stories of great heroes and heroines and their exploits and courage in the face of adversity. Still others are simple tales about otherwise unremarkable people who get into trouble or do some great deed. What are we to make of all these tales, and why do people seem to like to hear them? This course will focus on the myths of ancient Greece and Rome, as a way of exploring the nature of myth and the function it plays for individuals, societies, and nations. We will also pay some attention to the way the Greeks and Romans themselves understood their own myths.

That is, war is paradoxically an expression of our basest animal nature and the exemplar of our most vaunted and valued civilized virtues.

This free online course was produced jointly by Tel Aviv University and Yad Vashem – the World Holocaust Remembrance Center. The course tracks the history of the Holocaust and has two parts.
