Noble, Leal, Heroica y Mariana: breve historia de Cádiz y la Virgen del Rosario

Luis Cabeza Delgado — 2025-12-03

El presente trabajo ofrece una reflexión histórico-devocional sobre la profunda vinculación entre la ciudad de Cádiz y su patrona, la Virgen del Rosario, desde finales de la Edad Media hasta la actualidad. A partir de fuentes documentales, literarias y testimoniales, se examina cómo la figura mariana ha acompañado el devenir histórico, social y espiritual de la ciudad, encarnando sus títulos honoríficos de Muy Noble, Muy Leal y Muy Heroica. Mediante la conjunción de estas evidencias históricas con la dimensión simbólica y teológica, se plantea que la Virgen no solo representa a Cádiz, sino que la personifica: una ciudad herida, pero resiliente; unida por la fe y el consuelo del Rosario, que la hace, en definitiva, también Muy Mariana.

Cuando me siento frente a la pantalla del Word, en blanco, y solo tengo el título, es decir, lo que debo hacer; me surge la duda de lo que es, verdaderamente, una presentación. Pues, ¿cómo lo resuelvo? Consultando a la RAE. No es la fórmula más imaginativa, pero me suele sacar de este atropellado. Pues bien, aparece con dos entradas: 1.f. Hecho de presentar o presentarse. 2. f. Modo de presentar o presentarse. En principio, no me aclaró gran cosa, pues tuve que ir a conocer el significado exacto del verbo presentar. Y ahí sí. Se describen hasta quince entradas y de ellas me quedaría con la primera, la que dice: Poner (algo o a alguien) ante una persona para que (los) conozca, valore o considere. Claro que ahora ya lo tengo. Lo que, realmente, debo hacer es dar a conocer a los diferentes autores para que los valoren o consideren. En esto va a consistir esta presentación, que redacto con gran agrado.

español español — 2025-12-02

The development of an educational project is synonymous with satisfaction for the socio-educational community. Through milestones, a group of teachers from CEIP Celestino Mutis in Cadiz present their intentions to highlight the educational value of their city model. It is a different way of learning to be responsible individuals, to grow up valuing the meaning of living in society, with the rights and duties that this entails. A city within the school, in the heart of the city of Cádiz, which teaches lessons in coexistence and appreciation of people, professions and the need to contribute to improving everything. A teaching model in which they feel like protagonists and learn by doing, feeling and sharing.

There are lives that seem like something out of a film or could inspire a literary work. There are lives that go almost unnoticed and others that take centre stage. In this sense, the life of Carlos Cuarteroni could be described as extraordinary. A defender of men, sensitive and religious, he was everything from a ship's captain to a priest. He lived intensely thousands of kilometres from his native Cadiz, sailing the seas with his brothers and performing feats befitting a person who was as ambitious as he was in his pursuit of justice. He did not tolerate slavery, he could not stand the abuses of the powerful, whether European or native... A fervent Catholic and friend of popes, he served the universal church even though he did not fully connect with it. He made no distinction between religions and believed firmly in the education of the people.

If the University's etymological origin lies in the universal, what better forum to discuss everything with everyone than within the University itself? However, this must be done with the utmost respect. Insults and trivialization are unacceptable. In this opinion piece, the author invites reflection, and does so through self-reflection, which enriches and nourishes the text. The focus is on the Cádiz Carnival, and the subject matter is what is up for debate. We are engaged in an exercise of understanding and of conveying understanding/ what to talk about: a destiny, an identity, and ultimately, where is the Carnival headed?

Dice una estrofa del carnaval de Cádiz que aquí las penas son de colores y una vez hemos conocido el Festival de novela negra de Cádiz. Gaditanoir, y a su director Alberto Puyana, somos de la opinión que la literatura se puede llegar a escribir con tonos desde grises a oscuros. Alberto, en apariencia, resulta ser una persona serena, aunque la inventiva, patrimonio interior, nos suponemos que lo hace imaginar mundos diversos, con un resultado literario de negro sobre blanco. Una iniciativa de gigante, junto a otros colegas. Un osado al lado de mil iniciativas renovadoras... Para nosotros un honor tenerlo como entrevistado.

The first «regulation» football field in the city of Cádiz was on the grounds of the National Shooting Club (1911). With the popularization of football, the elite club invested in this emerging sport and made space available for the construction of a playing field adapted to the minimum necessary dimensions and conditions. The Shooting Club ceded the field to the Español Football Club of Cádiz, a newly founded team that was positioned as the city's main team. As the playing field was also used for shooting practice, it was common for it to be filled with bullet casings, which is why it became popularly known as the «Field of Bullets». The field still exists today, although there is no longer a football field or Shooting Club, but in Cádiz it is still known as «Field of Bullets».

Juan Luis Castro Bey: La escultura como eco de la voz interior

español español — 2025-12-02

The paper approaches the figure of the sculptor born in San Fernando (Cádiz), who is Juan Luis Castro Bey. In order to reconstruct his biography, the report exposes both of the most important periods in his artistic trajectory. On the one hand, it explains what kind of education he received at the School of Arts and Crafts of Cádiz; on the other hand, the period in which the author began in the world of arts: the imagery. Both periods within this biographical review are essential, because they have been related to the artist's upcoming exhibition which is named “Moments”. In this way, the paper illustrates how Castro Bey’s artistic career over the years has influenced his current work.

The results are organized around five thematic areas that articulate the journey through memories, physical education, play, and sport.

The integration of migrant students is a central challenge for schools in Cadiz, in a social and cultural context characterized by diversity and globalization. This article analyzes the linguistic, social, and emotional barriers faced by immigrant children in the city, as well as the risks of isolation, discrimination, and academic underachievement. The role of learning Spanish is highlighted as a key axis for educational and social inclusion, facilitating curriculum understanding, classroom participation, and the building of meaningful relationships.

Likewise, the importance of comprehensive local educational strategies is emphasized, including welcoming projects, socialization activities and intercultural teacher training, to promote equity and mutual respect in the educational centers of Cadiz. Effective inclusion requires a cooperative commitment between migrant students and the educational community, recognizing that the willingness to integrate is as important as the availability of resources.

The analysis reflects that, although full integration is a complex objective in Cadiz, educational policies and practices aimed at inclusion constitute essential tools to guarantee equal opportunities, strengthen school cohesion and promote the integral development of all students.
