    Jesulín y Cayetano Rivera salieron a hombros por la puerta grande aplaudidos por María José Campanario y la duquesa de Alba.

    Expectación, mucha expectación fue la que se vivió el pasado sábado en la localidad gaditana de Ubrique. Un cartel de lujo para una tarde gloriosa formado por los diestros Jesulín, “El Cid”, y Cayetano Rivera. El de Ubrique pudo presumir de haber sido “profeta en su tierra” en una tarde triunfal, con un resultado de tres orejas y salida por la puerta grande.

    El Camino de la lengua nos lleva hasta el siglo X, época en la que aparecen las Glosas Emilianenses en el monasterio de Suso en San Millán (La Rioja). Las Glosas Emilianenses están consideradas como el testimonio escrito más antiguo del castellano. Paso a paso y pueblo a pueblo, el viajero llegará al siglo XV para asistir al nacimiento de la primera Gramática de la Lengua Castellana, la de Nebrija. Más tarde, escritores como Miguel de Cervantes, Calderón de la Barca, Miguel de Unamuno, Santa Teresa de Jesús o el contemporáneo Miguel Delibes irán apareciendo a lo largo del itinerario.

    Pero la literatura no es el único atractivo de este viaje que acaba de comenzar.
    Nuestra ruta está llena de palacios, conventos, teatros y restaurantes. La riqueza gastronômica de esta región es algo que el viajero debe tener muy en cuenta.

    The fantastic appeal of fantasy

    Imagem da questão de Inglês, Centro Universitário São Camilo 2019, Interpretação de texto | Reading comprehension
    The fantasy genre starts where science ends

         Few things can brighten up a dark morning in a Scottish seaside resort during an Atlantic storm. Yet while sheltering in a bookshop from the rain, I had a moment of sunny revelation. Stacked almost as high as my 11-year-old self were copies of The Lord of the Rings, with a cover illustration that promised mystery and magic. That chance discovery started a lifelong love of the fantasy genre1 , both as reader and writer. 
       The fantasy genre has had more and more success, but today we’re in the middle of an unprecedented fantasy boom. Sales continue to rise and it is now the biggest genre in publishing. The more rational the world gets, with super-science all around us, the more we demand the irrational in our fiction.
         Fantasy is not simply a case of swords2 and sorcery3 . Yes, there is that by the shelf. But the genre is as broad as the imagination. The genre starts where science ends.
        “In these modern times, where most of us sit at computers, fantasy books offer a chance to break out of mundane moments,” says Mark Newton, an editor with the genre. “People like to explore themes that go beyond the limited palette that literary fiction claims to offer.” 
         A search for the origins of fantasy will usually have academics muttering about Beowulf or Homer’s The Iliad, but they come from a time when all stories were fantasy: gods and monsters and supernatural artefacts with humanity caught in the middle. The first modern fantasy writer is usually considered to be William Morris, in the late 19th Century. But it was the early 20th Century where fantasy really started to gain status.
         Fantasy fiction has always been about visionary ideas. You can get artful words in plenty of literary fiction, but being able to see beyond the boundaries4 of the world around us — now that’s a special skill.
         I don’t write fantasy fiction simply to provide a trapdoor5 from the real world. For me, the genre is about the reality. But instead of coming up against it, fantasy maps the unconscious aspirations of our modern society through allegory in story- -forms as old as humanity. It’s about turning off the mobile phone and the computer and remembering who we are in the deepest parts of ourselves.

    Bill Gates and his vision of the future of jobs with AI

    By Clément Pessaux

    April 29, 2025


    According to Bill Gates, artificial intelligence is about to redefine the job market. Among the professions likely to be widely replaced, Gates directly mentions doctors and teachers. Why these specific sectors? AI has the ability to take on complex tasks such as medical diagnosis or personalized learning, making these services more accessible. In fact, in some developing countries where access to education and healthcare remains limited, such advancements could transform daily life.

    But this progress raises concerns. Can we really do without human empathy in these fields? And what about the judgment or sensitivity that a machine can never fully reproduce?

    On the other hand, there are professions that AI does not seem ready to replace. Gates specifically mentions energy experts, biologists, and developers. These jobs require specialized expertise, as well as creativity and constant adaptability in the face of environmental or technological challenges.

    Creativity, strategic thinking, and empathy remain areas where humans will always have the upper hand. Although he recognizes the immense potential of AI, Gates also emphasizes the limits and the need to think about its deployment by keeping humans at the center of priorities.

         I don’t write fantasy fiction simply to provide a trapdoor5 from the real world. For me, the genre is about the reality. But instead of coming up against it, fantasy maps the unconscious aspirations of our modern society through allegory in story- -forms as old as humanity. It’s about turning off the mobile phone and the computer and remembering who we are in the deepest parts of ourselves.
