Variações sobre a vida após a morte: desenvolvimento de uma crença no judaísmo do Segundo Templo

A expectativa sobre o que acontece a uma pessoa após sua morte circunda a imaginação humana desde tempos muito antigos. Por este motivo, não poucos sistemas religiosos buscaram e ainda buscam dar uma resposta sobre o que uma pessoa pode esperar para além de sua morte. Esta resposta por vezes reflete as situações vivenciadas no cotidiano, de modo que expectativas de justiça, descanso e felicidade, entre outras, estão no centro da esperança de existência depois da vida no mundo como o temos. Mas como idéias, crenças e épocas são sempre diversas, escolhemos o campo imagético judaico para acompanhar suas elaborações e desenvolvimentos das suas noções de vida após a morte. Desta maneira, tencionamos observar algumas sutilezas que permeiam o aparecimento desta crença no Judaísmo do Segundo Templo e de que modo ela e suas reformulações responderam a certos anseios dos que recorreram às suas sugestões, o que fazemos trazendo para este campo também as crenças de outros povos/culturas com os quais Israel manteve contado ao longo de alguns períodos de sua história. Ao procedermos assim, estamos pressupondo uma troca de elementos religioso-culturais que, relidos à luz de expectativas próprias, tenham propiciado ao Judaísmo do Segundo Templo uma gama de conceitos e opções que não estava disponível na época mais antiga.

CARACTERÍSTICAS COMUNICACIONAIS DO DOCUMENTARISMO NA INTERNET: ESTUDO DE CASO SITE PORTA CURTAS

O projeto de pesquisa Características comunicacionais do documentarismo na Internet: estudo de caso site Porta Curtas apresenta as características encontradas na exibição de documentários na Internet com as atuais tecnologias disponíveis. Tal gênero audiovisual migrou para a Internet junto a outros gêneros audiovisuais, como o telejornalismo, a telenovela e os filmes de ficção, todos com características específicas. Foi definido como corpus do trabalho o site Porta Curtas, especializado em produção audiovisual e que disponibiliza aos usuários da Internet diversas produções documentais e ficcionais gratuitamente. Espera-se, a partir deste trabalho, que adota a metodologia estudo de caso do site Porta Curtas, especializado em exibição de vídeos dos gêneros ficção e documentário, provocar novos estudos no sentido de possibilitar um maior desenvolvimento de estudos sobre a produção de documentários para as novas tecnologias que estão cada vez mais presentes no cotidiano dos processos comunicacionais, possibilitadas pelos efeitos da convergência tecnológica, assim como oferecer à comunidade científica detalhes analíticos sobre o objeto da pesquisa.(AU)

PROTAGONISTAS DO COTIDIANO NA REVISTA PIAUÍ

Este estudo investiga a presença e a importância do anônimo e do cotidiano para a história e para o jornalismo brasileiro, no sentido de democratização de vozes que propicia um melhor entendimento da realidade social do momento abordado. Para isso, recorro a conceitos importantes que melhor explicam a realidade em que vivemos como o de complexidade e transdisciplinaridade, enfocando três áreas: História, Literatura e Antropologia. Desde o século XX, o anônimo tem sido visto com olhar diferenciado pelos historiadores no sentido de realização de uma história social. No jornalismo, a importância dada ao protagonista do cotidiano , como me refiro neste trabalho, tem sido pequena, segundo entendo. Apesar disso, algumas iniciativas jornalísticas mais avançadas procuram resgatar o espaço dessas vozes anônimas na vida social. Meu estudo versa sobre uma delas, a revista piauí.(AU)

AS TRANSFORMAÇÕES DAS PRÁTICAS EM EDUCAÇÃO INFANTIL NO PERÍODO DE 1960-2000: Os trabalhos dos alunos, a voz das professoras e os documentos curriculares

Este trabalho tem como propósito à análise das transformações das práticas em educação infantil na Prefeitura Municipal de São Bernardo do Campo ao longo de quatro décadas, considerando as mudanças políticas e econômicas, bem como as tendências teóricas predominantes nos diferentes momentos investigados. Para uma maior aproximação com as práticas do passado, três elementos foram fundamentais: as teorias que subsidiaram os documentos e orientações curriculares; a voz das professoras, que através de seus relatos puderam expressar as práticas desenvolvidas em sua trajetória de formação e as mudanças que foram se efetivando ao longo dos anos; e os trabalhos produzidos pelos alunos ao longo das décadas estudadas. Esses trabalhos dos alunos foram organizados em quadros, apontando a freqüência com que determinados tipos de atividade aconteciam em diferentes épocas. Além desses quadros, os relatos das professoras puderam evidenciar maneiras como as transformações das práticas aconteceram, a partir do olhar de quem as pratica. A partir desses dados, busquei nas contribuições de Certeau elementos para compreender de que maneira os sujeitos históricos - professores - lidam com os produtos que lhes são impostos pela ordem social - orientações curriculares e novas teorias - transformando-os e reinventando-os em seu fazer cotidiano.

ALUNOS COM DEFICIÊNCIA NO ENSINO REGULAR: E AGORA PROFESSOR, VAMOS FALAR DE INCLUSÃO?

A inclusão de alunos com deficiência em ensino regular no Brasil é um movimento que vem denotando constante crescimento nos últimos anos. Embora muitos avanços sejam observados, por ser um processo que suscita mudanças conceituais, legais e de prática, traz consigo dúvidas, decorrentes das contradições existentes entre os discursos que proclamam a inclusão e a realidade educacional brasileira. Sob o prisma da docência, no contexto da escola inclusiva, são inúmeras as dificuldades que os professores vêm enfrentando na prática com esse alunado. Considerando essa problemática, apesar da produção já existente, faz-se necessário o aprofundamento de estudos deste tema do ponto de vista do professor. Portanto, esta pesquisa investiga a voz e a ótica dos professores das classes regulares que possuem alunos em situação de inclusão, mais especificamente os que têm deficiência, e aborda os diferentes aspectos da inclusão no cotidiano escolar e o apoio ao professor como uma das ações necessárias para a prática pedagógica inclusiva à luz de teóricos que discutem o processo inclusivo. O estudo, de caráter qualitativo, foi realizado em quatro escolas do Ensino Fundamental (séries iniciais) da rede pública municipal de São Bernardo do Campo, e contou com a participação de nove professores, quatro diretores e quatro famílias de alunos com deficiência. Considerando a análise dos aspectos observados, pode-se inferir que os professores têm buscado a ressignificação de suas práticas, mas desvelam a necessidade de um apoio constante, que lhes dê sustentação para o atendimento à diversidade dos seus alunos.(AU)

A CONCEPÇÃO DE DOCÊNCIA NO INSTITUTO DE QUÍMICA DA UNIVERSIDADE DE SÃO PAULO: PROFESSOR OU PESQUISADOR?

Este estudo tem a finalidade de contribuir para a compreensão da concepção de docência que se articulou em um dos espaços de uma das maiores universidades brasileiras, a Universidade de São Paulo, ou seja, o Instituto de Química, conhecido como IQ-USP. Nessa perspectiva, o IQ-USP é, portanto, destacado como o objeto de estudo desta pesquisa, uma vez que sua história se entrelaça com a própria criação da Universidade e seu paradigma científico está centrado no perfil de análise determinado por este trabalho: a área de conhecimento das ciências exatas. Partindo do pressuposto que a concepção de como se deve constituir o ensino superior está intrinsecamente relacionada com a visão de mundo, de conhecimento e de educação elaborada pela própria trajetória histórica da universidade, mas também pelas relações que esta estabelece com a comunidade, durante todo o seu processo de ação , é possível dizer que tais crenças e valores, selecionados e hierarquizados pela comunidade acadêmica, acabam por intervir na formação específica de seus professores. Destaca-se, assim, sob o olhar da pesquisa qualitativa, o estudo a respeito da trajetória de formação do profissional docente que se constitui ao longo da história da própria Universidade em que esse está inserido e que subsidia a sua concepção de ser docente. Nessa perspectiva, alguns autores trazem muitas contribuições para o esclarecimento da concepção de docência implícita na formação do professor universitário e seus reflexos na prática docente cotidiana. Entre estes autores, destacamos o pensamento de Paschoal Senise (2006), Maria Isabel da Cunha (2007), Heladio César G. Antunha (1974) e J. Gimeno Sacristán (1998 e 1999). A coleta de dados foi realizada utilizando-se documentos históricos e informativos, como também entrevistas semi-estruturadas, em uma abordagem sempre qualitativa, uma vez que esta nos fornece melhores condições de entendimento dos aspectos subjetivos de que se reveste a problemática da pesquisa. Fundamentado nos dados levantados e analisados à luz da contribuição teórica dos autores referenciados neste trabalho, reforçamos a conclusão de que a instituição faz o profissional, evidenciando-se na formação do docente do IQ-USP a tradição e a inovação, dialeticamente, caminhando juntas.(AU)

What's new pussycat? A genealogy of animal celebrity

Animal celebrity is a human creation informing us about our socially constructed natural world. It is relational, expressive of cultural proclivities, political power plays and the quotidian everyday, as well as serious philosophical reflections on the meaning of being human. This article attempts to outline some key contours in the genealogy of animal celebrity, showing how popular culture, including fairground attractions, public relations, Hollywood movies, documentary films, zoo attractions, commercial sport and mediatised moral panics - particularly those accompanying scientific developments such as cloning - help to order, categorise and license aspects of human understanding and feelings. The nature of [animal] charisma and celebrity are explored with assistance from Jumbo the Elephant, Guy the Gorilla, Paul the clairvoyant octopus, Uggie the film star, Nénette the orang-utan and Dolly the sheep. It argues that the issue of what it is to be human lies beneath the celebritised surface or, as Donna Haraway noted, the issue 'of having to face oneself'. © 2013 Taylor & Francis.

FREADMAN, AnneThe Livres-Souvenirs of Colette Genre and the Telling of Time Oxford: Legenda, August 2012200 pp., £40.00, ISBN: 978-1-906540-93-7

Full text: The title of the book gives us a major clue on the innovative approach developed by Anne Freadman in her analysis of a particular Colette corpus, the one devoted to auto-biographical writing: Les Vrilles de la vigne, Mes apprentissages, La Maison de Claudine, Sido ,L’E ́toile Vesper and Le Fanal bleu. Freadman follows the powerful lure of Rimbaldianvieilles vieilleries and its echoes with Colette’s fondness for collecting objects, people and memories. To this must be added a technical aspect, that of the study of the genre of Colette’s writing. Freadman argues that, by largely avoiding the autobiographical form, the writer achieves a new way of ‘telling time’, collecting anecdotes and detail taken from the quotidian and setting them within an all-encompassing preoccupation with time. This provides the second part of the title.The sonata form directs the sequence of the book, orchestrated into five parts,from ‘exposition’ to ‘first subject’ to‘bridge’ to ‘second subject’ to ‘recapitulation’. This has the advantage of enabling Freadman to move and progress between distinct themes—autobiography first,then alternative forms—with grace,whilst preserving within her own writing what she sees as the essence of Colette’s relationship to time in her ‘Livres-Souvenirs’, the telling of time. This‘telling of time’ is itself therefore cleverly subjected to the time constraints and freedoms of musical composition. Freadman’s ‘Exposition’ takes us through a discussion of the autobiographical genre, analysing the texts against anumber of theorists, from Lejeune to Benjamin and Ricoeur, before launching into ‘Colette and Autobiography’. It argues pertinently that Colette did not write a ‘sustained’ autobiography, even inthe most autobiographical of her writings, Mes apprentissages. Measured against Goodwin’s three sources for autobiography, confession, apologia and memoirs, Colette’s autobiographical writings appear to be at odds with all of them. Freadman then goes on in Part II of her argument, to persuasively uncover a project that rejects self-scrutiny and with no autobiographical strategy. In ‘Collecting Time’, despite claims of continuity, narrative logic and causality areabandoned in favour of a collection offragments, family stories that are built up generation after generation into familylegends. A close and fruitful analysis of Sidoleads us to a study of ‘The Art of Ending’, concentrating on L’E ́toile Vesperandle Fanal Bleu. The closing chapter gives a fascinating reading of La Naissance du jouras an exemplar of the way in which the two subjects developed in Freadman’s volume are cast together:Colette’s own working through the autobiographical genre, and her refusal to write memoirs, in favour of collecting memories, and the strategies she uses for her purpose. In ‘Recapitulation’, her concluding chapter, Freadman adroitlyen capsulates her analysis in a fetching title: ‘Fables of Time’. Indeed, the wholepremise of her book is to move away from autobiographical genre, having acknowledged the links and debt the corpus owes to it, and into a study of the multiple and fruitful ways in which Colette tells time.The rich and varied readings of thematerial, competently informed by theoretical input, together with acute sensitivity to the corpus, mark out this study as incontournable for Colette scholars.

Flanerie: A post -reflexive mode of urban research inquiry

Urban ethnographic studies in social science usually proceed from within a pre-figured research framework that guides field activity and filters what is considered see-worthy and study-worthy to those phenomena which are in some way necessary for the fulfillment of specific research agendas. Reliance on formalized ethnographic research methods to explore the city, and the reflex to intellectualize that which is observed by using them, frequently leads to the neglect of much of what comprises the ethnographic richness of city-life through an overly-contemplative intellectuocentrism. ^ Flânerie, an avocational, proto-sociological ethnographic mode of urban exploration and observation originating in early-nineteenth-century Paris, is representative of an alternate approach to exploration and study of the city—one less subject to a compressed horizon of ethnographic experience. It affords insight into a broad range of phenomena taking place in interstitial urban space and time which often escape the instrumentally overly-determined gaze of professionalist research inquiry. ^ The present work addressed the fact that the concept of flânerie , though occasionally invoked in discussions of methodology in urban sociology and cultural studies, had not been subjected to a systematic attempt to relate it to the research methods of these disciplines. Though as a typological figure the flâneur is thought to have disappeared long ago, practices represented by the concept continue to be engaged in by persons inside and outside of academia who approach city life and social science with a perspective somewhat transcending the reified dichotomies of private-professional and art-and-science. This study transferred aspects of the experience of the city embodied in the flâneur to the realm of ethnographic urban studies and the building of grounded social theory, finding flânerie to be crucial to the development of a refined knowledge of urban life, and an important means by which previously overlooked social phenomena and silenced avenues of research inquiry might be exposed. ^ The conclusions reached found a “flâneuristic” approach to the city as being beneficial to research practice and the vitalization of urban ethnographic inquiry, by affording opportunities for exposure to, and immersion within, an expanded range of quotidian social phenomena that have frequently escaped the academicist gaze. ^

No cotidiano da escola: o pensar e agir de jovens e adultos

The necessity of the view of the Youth and Adults Education (EJA) subjects beyond of their academic failures becomes imperative for a reconfiguration of this teaching modality. Thus, the compromise of this study is to go into these subjects‘ universe, give them a voice and, therefore, understand, in general, the web of relationships between these subjects and the school. It is understood that it is not possible to figure out the means attributed by the subjects without consideration, as an essential element, the social context in which such means has been built. For the development of this study, the methodology adopted was the ethnographic research. The procedures used for the data construction were the participative observation, the semi-structured interviews with a focal group, and the individualized semi-structured interviews. For the understanding of the data constructed in the field, the content analysis technique was used, which reach the expectations of an interpretative analysis. The observation occurred mainly in the classrooms, on a public school, located in a City of Natal/RN. The interviews were taken with a sample of eight students, males and females, with 25 to 60 year-olds. Such interviews highlight that for the young adult students, the school is much more than a place to learn. They realize such space as enabler of social interaction, as well as the possibility of rising through new professional horizons and, therefore achieve a social mobility. For the older students, mainly among women, the return to the school benches brings into the learning discourse, the desire of making new friends, having moments of meeting, chatting and relaxation, finally, to forget the problems of the day by day. The school quotidian observation allows a better understanding of the action of the subjects in relationship with the school practices. Finally, it can be affirmed that seeking for the school has not only the intention to recover the time lost in the childhood. Learning remains as a secondary goal. It does not matter whether they will be retained or promoted to the next level at the end of the academic year, what really matters is to be in school.

Ser gestora da educação infantil: quais sentidos atribuídos na cultura profissional?

This research has been the aim understanding the senses that managers attribute to school management of the Child Education from his owner teacher high degree formation and his professional culture. The need to research about the sense attributed to the school management of the Child Education by the managers could be considered as contribute to school management studies in the manager team perspective itself. It depart from idea that attributed senses reveal the reinvention process of the professional culture those escape from a regard less attentive and take divers forms, been construct and reconstruct in the social interactions in the live quotidian of school community. The empirical investigation has developed in the Centro Municipal de Educação Infantil (CMEI) Marilanda Bezerra, located in Natal city (RN), during the years of 2012-2013. The methodology is endorsed in the qualitative approach with character of an ethnography type research in education having as main information’s construction tools the semi structured comprehensive interview. This permit (by the interlocutor’s oral discourse) the interpretation of the senses and values selfattributed to hers actions, the personal notebook of ground registers, the record of the interpretative analysis, the evolutionary plans and the participant observation. It distinguish auteurs as Jean-Claude Kaufmann, Adir Ferreira, Sônia Kramer, Álvaro Marchesi, Júlia Oliveira-Formosinho, Maurice Tardif, Telmo Caria, Andy Hargreaves; those supported this paper theoretically and methodologically. The analysis and the experience interpretation point to the possibilities of sharing actions of the Child Education unity with the community, featuring the importance of a participant and collaborative school management practice of the CMEI, highlight the value of this school management possibilities more horizontal and interactive in an essay of constitute a democratic and critical space to the professional culture, with a decisive participation of the managers team. This educational manager form has demonstrated sensibility, creativity, innovation and the possibility of social transformation through institutional action and Child Education teacher’s practices, cohabiting with the challenges, the dilemmas and the problems of work quotidian and the lacunas of a fragmentary formation.

“É acompanhante ou usuária?” Implicações sobre a posição da família no atendimento a crianças e adolescentes em um Centro de Atenção Psicossocial da Infância e Adolescência - CAPSi

This study emerged and founded itself with the aim to analyze the position taken by the family – and the implications in this subjective area – in attending children and adolescents in a Childhood Psychosocial Care Center (CAPSi). A secondary goal has come up as the comprehension surrounding the institutional representation made about the family and the service offered to children, adolescents and relatives. For such, the historical perspective on the relation between the State (laws and institutions) and the family was resumed, and the understanding of how it was reconciled by the medical knowledge and attended the ideological and political means. The social and ideological transformations of the 20th century culminated in the need of change required by the Psychiatric Reform and the achievement of patients on the right to return home and to their families. This new situation, permeated by the attempt of building an assistance model in Mental Health, presented a peculiarity–the close relationship between family and Mental Health services. The observations and conversations at CAPSi that were the investigation objects in this research, intended to learn on the quotidian of families and the possible treatment alternatives that would take into account the family circumstances. Conceiving the status of the families in Mental Health services is a germinal matter yet to be adjusted among the active knowledge in the post-Reform devices. The discussion about the family bonds, anchored in the theoretical perspective of Binding Psychoanalysis brought up elementary concepts such as psychic heritage, denial pact, unconscious alliances, the familiar psychic set, among other. The concept of family organizer helped to think of the family trajectories and stablishes a sort of identity for the family, as well as interferes in the establishment of its boundaries. The family path within the institution, as well as the status they establish facing the institutional approach, reflect the ghosts and the organizers shared by the group-family. It follows that the family is an important protagonist to be considered in the current therapeutic and political processes and, thus, is key to welcome the family bonds for the alliances act over the affective destinations, as well as try to remain sealed from the proposed changes.

The geographies of encounter: investigating the spatiality and construction of 'meaningful' encounters with difference through the experiences of international students at University College Cork, Ireland

The purpose of this research is to investigate how international students negotiate encounters with Irish students and construct ‘meaning’ from those encounters in the spaces of the university and city. As cities are increasingly characterised by a multiplexity of diversity, the issue of living with difference is becoming more and more pertinent. In the wake of escalating socio-spatial polarisation, inter-cultural tension, racism, and xenophobia, the geographies of encounter seek to untangle the interactions that occur in the quotidian activities and spaces of everyday life to determine whether such encounters might reduce prejudice, antipathy and indifference and establish common social bonds (Amin 2002; Valentine 2008). Thus far, the literature has investigated a number of sites of encounter; public space, the home, neighbourhoods, schools, sports clubs, public transport, cafes and libraries (Wilson 2011; Schuermans 2013; Hemming 2011; Neal and Vincent 2011; Mayblin, Valentine and Anderrson 2015; Laurier and Philo 2006; Valentine and Sadgrove 2013; Harris, Valentine and Piekut 2014; Fincher and Iveson 2008). While these spaces produce a range of outcomes, the literature remains frustrated by a lack of clarity of what constitutes a ‘meaningful’ encounter and how such encounters might be planned for. Drawing on survey and interview data with full-time international students at University College Cork, Ireland, this study contributes to understanding how encounters are shaped by the construction and reproduction of particular identities in particular spaces, imbuing spaces with uneven power frameworks that produce diverse outcomes. Rather than identifying a singular ‘meaningful’ outcome of encounter as a potential panacea to the issues of exclusion and oppression, the contention here is to recognise a range of outcomes that are created by individuals in a range of ways. To define one outcome of encounter as ‘meaningful’ is to overlook the scale of intensity of diverse interactions and the multiplicity of ways in which people learn to live with difference.
