Book Description
Domesticating Empire is the first contextually-oriented monograph on Egyptian imagery in Roman households. Caitlín Barrett draws on case studies from Flavian Pompeii to investigate the close association between representations of Egypt and a particular type of Roman household space: the domestic garden. Through paintings and mosaics portraying the Nile, canals that turned the garden itself into a miniature "Nilescape," and statuary depicting Egyptian themes, many gardens in Pompeii offered ancient visitors evocations of a Roman vision of Egypt. Simultaneously faraway and familiar, these imagined landscapes made the unfathomable breadth of empire compatible with the familiarity of home. In contrast to older interpretations that connect Roman "Aegyptiaca" to the worship of Egyptian gods or the problematic concept of "Egyptomania," a contextual analysis of these garden assemblages suggests new possibilities for meaning. In Pompeian houses, Egyptian and Egyptian-looking objects and images interacted with their settings to construct complex entanglements of "foreign" and "familiar," "self" and "other." Representations of Egyptian landscapes in domestic gardens enabled individuals to present themselves as sophisticated citizens of empire. Yet at the same time, household material culture also exerted an agency of its own: domesticizing, familiarizing, and "Romanizing" once-foreign images and objects. That which was once imagined as alien and potentially dangerous was now part of the domus itself, increasingly incorporated into cultural constructions of what it meant to be "Roman." Featuring brilliant illustrations in both color and black and white, Domesticating Empire reveals the importance of material culture in transforming household space into a microcosm of empire.

En 1971, la Academia Americana de Cirujanos Ortopedistas (AAOS) publicó la primera edición de Los Cuidados de Emergencia y Transporte de Enfermos y Heridos y sentó las bases para el entrenamiento de los SEM. Hoy en día, vemos cómo la undécima edición transforma la educación en los SEM llevándola a todo el mundo y ayudando a un desarrollo superior de los proveedores del SEM alrededor del planeta. Con base en los Estándares Nacionales de Educación de los SEM de Estados Unidos de América de y las guías 2015 de RCP/CCE del 2015, la undécima edición ofrece una cobertura completa de cada declaración de competencia con claridad y precisión en un formato conciso que asegura la comprensión del alumno y fomenta el pensamiento critico. Presenta un nuevo material cognitivo y didáctico, junto con nuevas destrezas y características para crear una solución de formación completa e innovadora para proveedores prehospitalarios. Hoy, el paquete de recursos educativos en SEM de la AAOS, desde primeros auxilios y RCP hasta el transporte de cuidados críticos, es el estándar de oro en materiales de capacitación, ofreciendo contenido excepcional y recursos de instrucción que satisfacen las diversas necesidades de los estudiantes y educadores de hoy en día. Contenido medico actualizado de ultima generación La undécima edición se alinea con los estándares médicos actuales — desde PHTLS hasta ILCOR — e incorpora conceptos médicos basados en evidencia para garantizar que los estudiantes e instructores tengan una interpretación precisa y profunda de la ciencia médica y su aplicación en la medicina prehospitalaria de hoy en día. Aplicación al Mundo Real del SEM A través de la evolución de estudios de caso de pacientes en cada capítulo, la undécima edición proporciona a los estudiantes el contexto de mundo real para aplicar los conocimientos adquiridos en cada capitulo clarificando cómo la información se utiliza para la atención de los pacientes en el campo e impulsa a los estudiantes a participar en el pensamiento crítico y la discusión. Una Fundación de por Vida La undécima edición parte de la premisa de que los estudiantes necesitan una base de fundamentos solidos y posteriormente refuerzo apropiado. La undécima edición proporciona a los estudiantes una comprensión amplia de la terminología médica, anatomía, fisiología y fisiopatología. Los conceptos son examinados brevemente y son relacionados con los capítulos posteriores, fortaleciendo los conocimientos fundamentales y ofreciendo un contexto cuando se estudian las emergencias específicas.
