The posts presented in this blog include notes and sketches: pieces of research that, due to its length and nature, cannot be published in professional journals. Nevertheless, these pieces have been produced respecting the same criteria as an academic article, and for their dissemination or use as a source, the same citation rules must be followed.

Periodically, these texts will be compiled in thematic series, published as digital books through El Zorro de Abajo Editora, and added to the "Publications" section.

The items in this section, notes and sketches, are listed below, following their chronological order of appearance.
