Léxico e gramática no Diccionario da Lingua Portugueza (1813) de António de Morais Silva

António de Morais Silva publicou em 1789 a 1ª edição de seu Diccionario da Lingua Portugueza e em 1813, a sua 2ª edição, ambas em Lisboa. Partindo da relação entre gramática e dicionário, obras que se completam no ensino e aprendizagem de uma língua, estudamos neste trabalho a projeção gramatical do autor na elaboração dos verbetes da 2ª edição do Diccionario, numa tentativa de demonstrar que Morais, influenciado pelas idéias reformistas do Século das Luzes em Portugal, inovou em termos lexicográficos e gramaticais, registrando essas inovações e também algumas críticas às gramáticas de seu tempo, no interior dos verbetes de sua obra lexicográfica.

Determinants of baseline seroreactivity to human papillomavirus type 16 in the Ludwig-McGill cohort study

Background: Immunity plays an important role in controlling human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and associated lesions. Unlike infections caused by other viruses, natural HPV infection does not always result in a protective antibody response. Therefore, HPV antibodies are also considered markers of cumulative exposure. The aim of this study was to identify determinants of HPV16 seroreactivity at enrollment among women from the Ludwig-McGill cohort, a natural history study of HPV infection and risk of cervical neoplasia.Methods: HPV16 serology was assessed by ELISA for L1 and L2 capsid antigens, while HPV typing and viral load measurements were performed by PCR-based methods. The associations were analyzed by unconditional logistic regression.Results: Of 2049 subjects, 425 (20.7%) were strongly seropositive for HPV16. In multivariate analysis, seroreactivity was positively correlated with age, lifetime number of sexual partners, frequency of sex, and HPV16 viral load, and negatively associated with duration of smoking.Conclusions: HPV16 seroreactivity is determined by factors that reflect viral exposure.

Otto Maria Carpeaux leitor de Walter Benjamin: passagens do moderno

This article makes a connection between Benjamin and Carpeaux in order to identify points of contact between the two authors. In this methodological operation assumes the crucial role collating Wege nach Rom with Benjamin's, Passages, which leads us to speak of a Carpeaux reader of Benjamin.

A herança genotípica proposta por Wilhelm Ludwig Johannsen

Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cientifico e Tecnológico (CNPq)

Investigação sobre a inclusão do episódio histórico da teoria genotípica de Wilhelm Ludwig Johannsen na formação inicial de professores e pesquisadores

This paper is part of a broader investigation on Epistemology of Biology carried out by a group of researchers from Cascavel/PR. It involves studies and research about biological thought on subjects such as the growing of the concepts of gene, genotype and phenotype. The aim of this research was to gather the undergraduate students of Biological Sciences’ views about the role played by the inclusion of a historical episode in the study group as a trigger for epistemological discussions and didactic reflections. Firstly, the students received Johannsen’s article “The genotype conception of heredity”, published in 1911 in the journal The American Naturalist, in which he proposed the concepts of genotype and phenotype, among other ones. After, there was a discussion held by group about the concepts proposed in the article taking into account the epistemological, historical and didactic aspects. Data collection occurred through the recording of the group discussions and individual interviews. The results suggest that the inclusion of this historical episode, enabled the participants to develop critical thinking through collective reflection on the meaning of biological knowledge in different contexts.

O lugar de Otto Maria Carpeaux no campo da crítica

The paper studies Otto Maria Carpeaux`s work in the context of Brazilian literary critic in the decades of 1940-1950. Starting from Pierre Bourdieu`s theoretical formulations about field concept, are set reflections concerning the place occupied by Carpeaux in the light of paradigm shifts occurred in the criticism field and new processes of legitimation resulting from this situation.

Mediación y legitimación en la crítica literaria de Otto Maria Carperaux

The work and the trajectory of literary critic and journalist Austrian-Brazilian Otto Maria Carpeaux (1900-1978) are studied from the relationship between literary criticism and the diffusion field in Brazil. Between the decades of 1940-1970, Carpeaux has played a prominent role in the formation process of the reader and reading in Brazil, as evidenced by his intense activity as a critic and essayist. Will also be developed reflections on the place occupied by Carpeaux in the field of criticism in Brazil. Two hypotheses are developed: a) Carpeaux`s work was affected by a lack of legitimacy of his contemporaries in the decades of 1940-1950, as can be seen, for example, in peripheral treating conferred on him by the field of diffusion and consecration instances we can read, the editorial market. b) Carpeaux such as an Alvaro Lins`s heir in the Correio da Manha, also inherited a criticism model that lost prestige in the light of the New Criticism growing influence occurred in the country, which shifts the critical role from the newspaper to the university.

A produção técnico-científica de James Precott Joule: uma leitura a partir da epistemologia de Ludwig Fleck

This paper aims an epistemologically analysis of the attempt of James Prescott Joule to replace the steam engine by the electric one. In this historical analysis, we use the epistemological categories: style of thinking, collective thinking, intercollective circulation of ideas and practices,Joule and other technicians in Machester received in that time financial incentives from governments and industry to replace the steam engine by the electric one, since it was in Manchester a culture of the technique of the accuracy and precision in which Joule was immersed, which allowed us to initially identify the styles of techniques thinking and experimental efficiency. However, Joule could not replace the steam engine by the electric; and the awareness of the problems faced by him, in the attempt to make such a substitution, led him to seek, through an intercollective circulation of ideas and practices, such as the studies of Faraday and Jacobi, a change of direction in his researches. According to our analysis, what happened was a change of style from a technical to a scientific thinking. In this sense, Joule began to investigate issues of a scientific nature, as the Joule’s effect and the mechanical equivalent of heat, which contributed significantly to the establishment of the principle of conservation of energy. We present here the contributions of this epistemological analysis to the discussion of questions of the nature of science in the basic education and for the training of physics teachers.

Net power optimization of an irreversible Otto cycle using ECOP and ecological function

This paper presents an analysis of an irreversible Otto cycle aiming to optimize the net power through ECOP and ecological function. The studied cycle operates between two thermal reservoirs of infinite thermal capacity, with internal irreversibilities derived from non-isentropic behavior of compression and expansion processes, irreversibilities from thermal resistance in heat exchangers and heat leakage from the high temperature reservoir to the low temperature reservoir. Analytical expressions are applied for the power outputs optimized by the ECOP, by the ecological function and by the maximum power criteria, in conjunction with a graphic analysis, in which some cycle operation parameters are analyzed for an increased comprehension of the effects of the irreversibilities in the optimized power.
