Os gêneros de discurso, cenografia e ethos em discursos da obra O templo e a forca de Luiz Guilherme Santos Neves

A pesquisa busca mostrar como o discurso religioso do gênero sermão, na voz do enunciador Frei Gregório José Maria de Bene, pode influir na estratégia de adesão e convencimento dos escravos da região de Serra, província do Espírito Santo, para a construção da igreja do Queimado. O sermão citado é o recorte fundamental do discurso literário O Templo e a Forca (1999), recriado por Luiz Guilherme Santos Neves, analisado a partir de cena englobante legitimadora. O trabalho insere-se nos estudos da Analise do Discurso (AD) de linha francesa, pelo referencial teórico de Dominique Maingueneau, que nos orientará quanto às cenografias do padre, sua imagem de enunciador, as condições de produção do sermão, ressaltando elementos que interagem no embate, visando à sociedade da época e às questões culturais dos envolvidos na eclosão da revolta. O principal objetivo é examinar as cenas de enunciação e como se constrói o ethos religioso em cada cena e suas variadas funções. É elementar dizer que o religioso se reconstrói a cada momento a partir do comprometimento com as situações de comunicação. Para maior entendi-mento, dizemos que essas diversas reconstruções apresentam nos discursos diferentes encenações desse tão fomentado religioso com suas estratégias de adesão, apresentando-se ora com a imagem daquele que fala em nome de Deus, preza a docilidade da vida do campo à sombra das andirobeiras gigantes onde se pode sentir o silêncio que convida à contemplação e à prece; ora aquele comprometido com seus propósitos interesseiros e pessoais. Fala para não ser entendido, e o que vale é erguer a casa de São José sem poupar a carne e o sangue das mortes que virão. Importa ressaltar que sempre há possibilidade de olhar ingênuo sobre texto religioso, que, conforme Main-gueneau (2010), só é legível relacionado a vasto intertexto que contribuirá para estruturar o discurso. Para enriquecer ainda mais este estudo, afora o gênero sermão usamos recortes que estruturam o discurso de Neves e sinalizam as variadas cenografias e a forma como se constituem enquanto gêneros: Diálogo interior – momentos solitários do frade – Visão do frade e Monólogo; Diálogo Compartilhado – segmenta diálogos entre o enunciador e seus vários co-enunciadores, que estruturam os acontecimentos do discurso; e o gênero exortação, do padre aos escravos. Os recortes são momentos de grandes embates recriados pelo autor, em discurso leve fazendo seu leitor transitar prazerosamente junto ao frade entre as suas variadas imagens nos discursos. Levando o leitor a acreditar tratar-se de cenas relacionadas ao gênero cômico. E talvez o fosse, se não terminasse em revolta.

Estimating the apparent transverse relaxation time (R2(*)) from images with different contrasts (ESTATICS) reduces motion artifacts.

Relaxation rates provide important information about tissue microstructure. Multi-parameter mapping (MPM) estimates multiple relaxation parameters from multi-echo FLASH acquisitions with different basic contrasts, i.e., proton density (PD), T1 or magnetization transfer (MT) weighting. Motion can particularly affect maps of the apparent transverse relaxation rate R2(*), which are derived from the signal of PD-weighted images acquired at different echo times. To address the motion artifacts, we introduce ESTATICS, which robustly estimates R2(*) from images even when acquired with different basic contrasts. ESTATICS extends the fitted signal model to account for inherent contrast differences in the PDw, T1w and MTw images. The fit was implemented as a conventional ordinary least squares optimization and as a robust fit with a small or large confidence interval. These three different implementations of ESTATICS were tested on data affected by severe motion artifacts and data with no prominent motion artifacts as determined by visual assessment or fast optical motion tracking. ESTATICS improved the quality of the R2(*) maps and reduced the coefficient of variation for both types of data-with average reductions of 30% when severe motion artifacts were present. ESTATICS can be applied to any protocol comprised of multiple 2D/3D multi-echo FLASH acquisitions as used in the general research and clinical setting.

Prospective motion correction of 3D echo-planar imaging data for functional MRI using optical tracking.

We evaluated the performance of an optical camera based prospective motion correction (PMC) system in improving the quality of 3D echo-planar imaging functional MRI data. An optical camera and external marker were used to dynamically track the head movement of subjects during fMRI scanning. PMC was performed by using the motion information to dynamically update the sequence's RF excitation and gradient waveforms such that the field-of-view was realigned to match the subject's head movement. Task-free fMRI experiments on five healthy volunteers followed a 2×2×3 factorial design with the following factors: PMC on or off; 3.0mm or 1.5mm isotropic resolution; and no, slow, or fast head movements. Visual and motor fMRI experiments were additionally performed on one of the volunteers at 1.5mm resolution comparing PMC on vs PMC off for no and slow head movements. Metrics were developed to quantify the amount of motion as it occurred relative to k-space data acquisition. The motion quantification metric collapsed the very rich camera tracking data into one scalar value for each image volume that was strongly predictive of motion-induced artifacts. The PMC system did not introduce extraneous artifacts for the no motion conditions and improved the time series temporal signal-to-noise by 30% to 40% for all combinations of low/high resolution and slow/fast head movement relative to the standard acquisition with no prospective correction. The numbers of activated voxels (p<0.001, uncorrected) in both task-based experiments were comparable for the no motion cases and increased by 78% and 330%, respectively, for PMC on versus PMC off in the slow motion cases. The PMC system is a robust solution to decrease the motion sensitivity of multi-shot 3D EPI sequences and thereby overcome one of the main roadblocks to their widespread use in fMRI studies.

Le Musée de l'Oratoire Saint-Joseph du Mont-Royal : un outil d'évangélisation

Dès les débuts du christianisme, l’Église s’est servie de l’art. Au Moyen âge, en particulier, la décoration des cathédrales (sculptures, fresques vitraux) avait une valeur esthétique, mais plus encore, une valeur didactique. Moyens matériels pour faire la catéchèse, voire évangéliser, les crèches du Musée de l’Oratoire Saint-Joseph du Mont-Royal s’inscrivent dans cette perspective. Tenant compte de cette mission d’évangélisation qui incombe à l’Église et de l’importance que prend de plus en plus le visuel dans la culture et la société actuelles, nous voulons partir de l’exposition des crèches de Noël à l’Oratoire Saint-Joseph, de l’année 2009, pour découvrir en quoi elle pourrait contribuer à l’évangélisation et à la croissance du christianisme et des chrétiens. En effet, les crèches de Noël sont essentiellement œuvre de foi, – non pas liée à la foi de l’auteur mais plutôt à l’effet que cette oeuvre peut avoir sur celui qui la regarde, – dont la dévotion à la sainte Famille. Ce moyen d’évangélisation dans ce monde en mutation où l’art visuel s’est avéré d’une extrême importance convient bien au contexte de la déchristianisation et peut offrir une complémentarité aux méthodes traditionnelles d’évangélisation basées surtout sur le discours. Ils sont complémentaires, dans le sens où il ne s’agit pas de « cheminer à travers villes et villages, prêchant et annonçant la Bonne Nouvelle du Royaume de Dieu » (Lc 8,1) aux personnes qui n’ont pas encore entendu parler du Christ, mais d’éveiller la curiosité chez les visiteurs non-chrétiens (Evangelii Nuntiandi 53), de stimuler l’intérêt à l’égard de la religion chez les non-pratiquants (EN 56) et, de soutenir et approfondir la foi des fidèles. Mots-clés : Christianisme – Église – transmission – évangélisation – éducation de la foi – musée – crèches – Oratoire Saint-Joseph.

Characterization and Catalytic Activity of Polymer Supported Ruthenium Schiff Base Complexes Towards Catechol Oxidation

Ruthenium(III) complexes of the Schiff bases formed by the condensation of polymer bound aldehyde and the amines, such as 1,2-phenylenediamine (PS-opd), 2-aminophenol (PS-ap), and 2-aminobenzimidazole (PS-ab) have been prepared. The magnetic moment, EPR and electronic spectra suggest an octahedral structure for the complexes. The complexes of PS-opd, PS-ap, and PS-ab have been assigned the formula [PS-opdRuCl3(H2O)], [PS-apRuCl2(H2O)2], [PS-ab- RuCl3(H2O)2], respectively. These complexes catalyze oxidation of catechol using H2O2 selectively to o-benzoquinone. The catalytic activity of the complexes is in the order [PS-ab- RuCl3(H2O)2] . [PS-opdRuCl3(H2O)] [PS-apRuCl2(H2O)2]. Mechanism of the catalytic oxidation of catechol by ruthenium( III) complex is suggested to take place through the formation of a ruthenium(II) complex and its subsequent oxidation by H2O2 to the ruthenium(III) complex.
