The purpose of this article is to show how new technologies can majorly alter the use and the place of human hands, and how this raises issues that would be wrong to neglect, since they concern the profile of future workers, customers and users. First addressed is the place of the hand in human history: its role in the evolution as a marker of identity, and a tool of action, interface and communication. Then summarized is the knowledge on the hand-brain couple. The functions likely to be profoundly modified by technological advances are then adressed: memory, communication, information gathering (tactile), creativity, and know-how. Music and writing are identified for the quality of symbiosis regarding the hand and are addressed in each of the three sections. The concluding comments target six points.

This article deals with Rosaura’s relationships to other characters: her father, her mother, her lover (Astolfo), and her rival (Estrella), in addition to Segismundo in Pedro Calderón de la Barca’s play La vida es sueño. By being recognized by her father, Rosaura recovers her honor and can marry Astolfo. But Clotaldo’s recognition is substantially caused by Rosaura herself; she must therefore be viewed as the agent of her own destiny as well as an essential figure in the play’s denouement. Finally, Rosaura (Astrea) undoes the fatal star that held Segismundo in its grip and moves him to marry Estrella, who is both her double and romantic rival.
