Este trabalho apresenta o processo de construção da memória da personagem Dona Cecé, do romance Passagem dos Inocentes, de Dalcídio Jurandir. À luz da narratologia, em consonância com aspectos históricos e sociológicos, intenciona-se desvendar as transformações físicas e psicológicas pelas quais ela passa ao longo de sua existência. Busca-se compreender como os elementos da estrutura narrativa - foco narrativo, tempo, espaço, linguagem - não são meros indicadores do processo da história contada, e sim, a representação do feminino, sua memória e identidade. Paralelo a isso, focaliza-se também a vivência de Alfredo, personagem que divide com Dona Cecé o protagonismo dessa obra, quando então volta para Belém, a fim de continuar os estudos colegiais.

This study compared the effectiveness of the multifocal visual evoked cortical potentials (mfVEP) elicited by pattern pulse stimulation with that of pattern reversal in producing reliable responses (signal-to-noise ratio >1.359). Participants were 14 healthy subjects. Visual stimulation was obtained using a 60-sector dartboard display consisting of 6 concentric rings presented in either pulse or reversal mode. Each sector, consisting of 16 checks at 99% Michelson contrast and 80 cd/m2 mean luminance, was controlled by a binary m-sequence in the time domain. The signal-to-noise ratio was generally larger in the pattern reversal than in the pattern pulse mode. The number of reliable responses was similar in the central sectors for the two stimulation modes. At the periphery, pattern reversal showed a larger number of reliable responses. Pattern pulse stimuli performed similarly to pattern reversal stimuli to generate reliable waveforms in R1 and R2. The advantage of using both protocols to study mfVEP responses is their complementarity: in some patients, reliable waveforms in specific sectors may be obtained with only one of the two methods. The joint analysis of pattern reversal and pattern pulse stimuli increased the rate of reliability for central sectors by 7.14% in R1, 5.35% in R2, 4.76% in R3, 3.57% in R4, 2.97% in R5, and 1.78% in R6. From R1 to R4 the reliability to generate mfVEPs was above 70% when using both protocols. Thus, for a very high reliability and thorough examination of visual performance, it is recommended to use both stimulation protocols.
