Entorno a una controversia : Christine De Pizan, autora de Le Livre Des Fais et Bonnes Meurs du Sage Roy Charles V

Un día de enero de 1404, Christine de Pizan, rodeada de sus servidores de confianza, acudía al palacio del Louvre para reunirse con Felipe II de Borgoña. Una vez concluido el protocolo de presentación, el duque comunicó a Christine sobre sus intenciones de escribir una obra en memoria de su hermano, el honorable rey Carlos V, a fin de impedir que el inevitable paso del tiempo disolviese su ejemplar comportamiento y sus nobles virtudes. En el siglo en que se iniciaban los grandes mecenazgos renacentistas, los encargos nobiliarios formaban parte de la vida política y cultural de la elite. No obstante, la oferta hecha por el duque a Christine de Pizan, lejos de ser habitual, se situaba por fuera de los cánones de la época. A su condición de mujer, creación viciada de la naturaleza, se le añadía el particular contexto de popularidad de la literatura misógina de Paris del siglo XV. Evidentemente, desde la perspectiva de género, la elección de Felipe de Borgoña, no era inviable; pero incluso por fuera de ella, la decisión seguía siendo polémica. Al momento de la encomienda, Christine no pasaba de ser una escritora de poesías, tratados alegóricos y didácticos, sin ningún peso entre los grandes escritores laicos y clericales. Jamás había escrito por completo una obra en prosa y su trayectoria como escritora política era nula. Sin embargo, Christine de Pizan, mujer viuda e inexperta en la materia, terminó por ser la elegida para honrar la memoria de los Valois. Sin lugar a dudas, una elección controvertida que invita a dilucidar los motivos que se esconden tras ella

PRODUÇÃO E APROPRIAÇÃO DE ESPAÇO LIVRE PÚBLICO: LAGO IGAPÓ EM LONDRINA-PR

A realidade atual concernente às cidades apresenta, aos pesquisadores, muitas questões, entre as quais algumas parecem-nos relevantes: os processos de urbanização e de produção do espaço urbano e as diversas formas de se apropriar dos espaços públicos. Este trabalho pretende problematizar as inter-relações entre as questões a partir do estudo de caso do Lago Igapó na cidade de Londrina-PR. No estudo aqui proposto, o recorte territorial é o da cidade de Londrina- PR. Desta forma, procurar-se-á colaborar para o debate sobre as articulações entre a produção e apropriação do espaço urbano, particularmente deste espaço público, procurando analisar e compreender o processo de valoração do uso do solo urbano em um espaço público onde se predomina a construção de residências de alto poder aquisitivo. Sendo assim, esta relação de espaço público com o privado, modifica, altera as inúmeras formas de apropriação e usos do espaço estudado? Destarte, pretendemos “olhar” para o papel dos agentes sociais urbanos no processo de reprodução espacial. São pontos nodais da pesquisa: as diversas formas de apropriação do espaço urbano por distintos agentes sociais; e seus diferentes significados para a população Londrinense; o consumo do espaço público e no espaço público do Lago Igapó, a busca de uma melhor “qualidade de vida”.

Qualidade de vida em epilepsia e percepção de controle de crises

The individual affective-cognitive evaluations are important factors that control the way he feels the disease impact in his life. Then, the perception of seizure control is a more important factor to evaluate Quality of Life (QoL) than the illness characteristics, such as the severity, type, sickening period and seizure frequency. This study searched for the relationship among the subjective variables (perception of seizure control) and the illness characteristics to evaluate QoL. The sample consisted of 60 individuals with chronic epilepsy, aging 18 to 70 (M=37.05; SD=11.25), chosen at randon from the ambulatory of epilepsy - HC/UNICAMP, by the Questionnaire 65. The illness characteristics were not significant, except the seizures frequency, when associated to the impairment in QoL among controlled seizures and seizures with frequency higher than 10 per month (p=0.021). The perception of control was significantly associated to QoL (p=0.005).

Um novo índice de qualidade das águas para proteção da vida aquática aplicado ao Rio Atibaia, região de Campinas/Paulínia-SP

In this paper a water quality index is developed to subsidize management actions in the Atibaia River for upon protection of aquatic organisms. This index is composed of two measurable environmental parameters normaly, ammonia and dissolved oxygen, the latter representing the contribution of organic matter. Concentrations of these two variables were normalized on a scale from 0 to 100 and translated into statements of quality (excellent, good, regular, bad and very bad). The index was applied to three monitoring points in the Atibaia River and compared to other indices used by the State of São Paulo Environmental Agency (CETESB). The results showed that the degradation in this watershed follows the urban population density. The developed index is more restricted than the other ones routinely used to infer water quality.

Avaliação da qualidade de vida em pacientes idosos um ano após o tratamento cirúrgico de fraturas transtrocanterianas do fêmur

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the impact that trochanteric hip fractures produce on life quality of elderly patients, treated surgically, during one year of monitoring. METHODS: Were selected 73 elderly with transtrochanteric femur fracture, aged equal or over than 65 years and of both sexes. All participants underwent a standardized questionnaire which obtained information on lifestyle habits, functionality, physical activity, ambulation and cognitive state. Were excluded patients who died, not walking, with neurological diseases and pathological fractures. RESULTS: The average age was 80.17 ± 7.2 years and 75% was female. When comparing the summation of activities of daily living (p = 0.04) and instrumental daily living (p = 0.004) obtained before and after fracture, the patients become more dependent after fracture. Activities of daily living that worsened after fracture were bathing (p = 0.04), toileting (p = 0.02) and dressing (p = 0.04). All instrumental activities of daily living showed a significant difference, with functional dependence after fracture, increased need for walking aid (p = 0.00002), aged (p = 0.01) and not doing housework (p = 0.01). The low score on the test Minimental was associated with a greater dependence to perform activities of daily living before (p = 0.00002) and after (p = 0.01) fracture. CONCLUSION: After a year, activities of daily living that depended on the lower limbs worsened significantly, all instrumental activities of daily living were significantly worse in more than 50% of patients and more than half of patients who walked without support lost this ability.
