|January 26, 2026
Resumen
Este estudio explora la praxis decolonial en la cultura yoruba, desafiando las narrativas coloniales a través del arte. Recuperó la estética artística yoruba como la representación visual (Aworan) y el sonido (Oriki), culminando en una escultura significativa.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Estudios Culturales
- Estudios Africanos
- Historia del Arte
Sus antecedentes:
- La cultura yoruba ha sido históricamente tergiversada a través de una lente etnográfica colonial, etiquetándola como primitiva y no civilizada.
- El colonialismo suprimió el idioma yoruba en las escuelas nigerianas, lo que afectó la transmisión cultural y la identidad.
- La praxis decolonial busca contrarrestar estas narrativas negativas y reclamar la representación cultural auténtica.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Reexaminar las culturas indígenas africanas, específicamente la yoruba, a través de la lente de la praxis decolonial.
- Desafiar y disipar los estereotipos negativos perpetuados por las descripciones coloniales de la cultura yoruba.
- Explorar la filosofía y la estética yoruba a través de la práctica artística como método de descolonización.
Principales métodos:
- Utilización de la metodología de Práctica como Investigación (PaR), un enfoque multimodal.
- Empleo de la «autoetnografía decolonial» para integrar la experiencia personal con la investigación académica.
- Observación de la cultura yoruba *in situ* a través de la práctica artística como forma de investigación conceptual.
Principales resultados:
- La recuperación y resurrección de la estética artística yoruba, incluyendo la representación visual (Aworan) y el sonido (Oriki).
- La creación de la primera escultura de una mujer negra en Leeds, una estatua de Aworan de color azul ultramar de la Dra. Geraldine Roxanne Connor.
- Demostración de cómo la praxis decolonial puede tender puentes entre la teoría y la práctica en contextos afropolitanos.
Conclusiones:
- La praxis decolonial, particularmente a través del arte, puede desafiar eficazmente las narrativas y ansiedades coloniales en torno a las culturas indígenas.
- La recuperación y celebración de la estética artística yoruba contribuye a la descolonización de la mente y la identidad cultural.
- El estudio destaca el poder de las voces indígenas y el arte en la promoción de la comprensión y apreciación cultural.

Retrieval
428
Retrieval is the process of getting information out of memory storage and back into conscious awareness. This ability is essential for daily tasks like brushing hair and teeth, driving to work, and performing job duties. Retrieval occurs in three ways: recall, recognition, and relearning.
Recall involves accessing information without cues, such as during an essay test, where individuals must retrieve facts and concepts from memory unaided. Another example is remembering the name of a colleague...

ER Retrieval Pathway
4.7K
In the secretory pathway, vesicles transport proteins from one cellular compartment to another in forward transport to deliver the protein to its correct location. Occasionally, misfolded proteins and incorrect proteins escape their original compartments, and a retrieval pathway is used to return the escaped proteins to their original compartment.
The ER uses many checkpoints to prevent the entry of incorrectly folded or a resident protein as cargo onto a transport vesicle. These mechanisms...

Characteristics of Practical Op Amps
843
A difference amplifier, a crucial component in numerous electronic devices, ideally amplifies only the difference-mode signal, which is the difference between two input signals. However, in practical circuits, the output voltage depends on both the differential gain and the common-mode gain.
The ratio of differential gain to the common-mode gain is defined as the common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR). This ratio quantifies the ability of operational amplifiers (op-amps) to reject common-mode...

Theoretical Foundations of Nursing Practice
17.3K
Theories play an essential role in organizing patient care. Theories refer to a proposed or followed belief, policy, or procedure that is the basis for action. Nursing theories are knowledge-based concepts that guide nurses' actions, influence nursing education and practice, and allow nurses to care for their patients.
Theories provide a perspective to assess patients' conditions and organize data and methods. They also assist in analyzing and interpreting information. They represent a...

Equivalent Circuits for Practical Transformers
1.4K
The practical equivalent circuits of single-phase two-winding transformers exhibit significant deviations from their idealized versions due to the inherent properties of winding resistance and finite core permeability. These properties result in real and reactive power losses, affecting the transformer's performance. Understanding these deviations is crucial for designing more efficient transformers.
In a practical transformer, each winding exhibits resistance and leakage reactance. The...
