Le kawaii : répercussion d’un idéal culturel et médiatique sur l’identité féminine japonaise

Ce mémoire propose de mettre à jour l’impact d’une culture visuelle donnée dans la formation et la construction d’une identité féminine japonaise. L’idéal en question, connu sous le nom de kawaii, prône le caractère mignon, adorable et enfantin de la gent japonaise. Les représentations féminines y étant rattachées diffèrent en fonction des lieux et des clientèles visées. Ces différents façonnements ont par la suite une influence prépondérante sur la vision, la perception et l’acceptation sociale des Japonaises, notamment face à leur identité, mais aussi face aux rôles qu’elles entretiennent dans la société moderne. L’esthétisme du kawaii a vivement été critiqué dans les milieux anthropologiques. Nombreux sont ceux qui perçoivent cette image enfantine de manière négative, lui attribuant une influence particulièrement néfaste. Cependant, ces jugements découlent d’une incompréhension liée à des connotations spécifiques, ainsi qu’à des erreurs épistémologiques. L’hégémonie médiatique rattachée à l’idéal du kawaii provient surtout d’une politique économique favorisée par le gouvernement, répondant au nom de Cool Japan. Les représentations féminines y étant associées prônent le caractère docile, innocent et inférieur de la femme. Ces images ne sont pourtant pas représentatives des identités et des rôles véhiculés par la femme japonaise. Elles ne servent qu’à renforcer des présuposés culturels. De par le kawaii, les intellectuels, qu’ils soient Japonais ou non, ont bien souvent fait endosser aux Japonaises des identités et des rôles stéréotypés, qui sont pourtant loin d’être le lot de la jeune génération.

Chroniques de maux (de l’extrême ordinaire) ; suivi de Attaques à vide : bousculer la situation théâtrale au confluent de l’humour et de l’invective dans la pièce Rouge Gueule d’Étienne Lepage

Alice au pays des merveilles et Nietzsche n'ont en commun ni la dentelle ni la chanson. Quelque chose de beaucoup plus fort les unit toutefois; nous le découvrirons peut-être ce jour où voleront les cochons. Ou à la fin de cette pièce, selon le bon vouloir des principaux-ales intéressé-e-s. Pendant ce temps, du fin fond de leur enclos, ils et elles n'en peuvent plus d'attendre. Leur salut ? L'heure du glas ? Leur heure de gloire ? Grands incapables, pugilistes décadents qui se tuent à ne pas se tuer, se déchaînent dans le verbiage, s'érigeant malgré eux contre toute forme de verve. Combattre cet Autre qui s'immisce insidieusement en soi et qui conduit à la perte du moi. C'est dans une folle lucidité que les égos se dérangent sans échanger, s'attaquent sans s'atteindre, hurlent sans être entendus, dans l'espoir, peut-être, de se réveiller in the land of Nod. Comme l’indique le titre, Chroniques de maux (de l’extrême ordinaire) met en scène une suite de chroniques dans lesquelles les principaux-ales intéressé-e-s témoignent de leur mal-être, et ce, à travers l’exploration de lieux communs. La dramaturgie tente, entre autres, de mettre en place une poésie de l’invective et de l’humour; une esthétique du trash-talking et de la logorrhée. Une importance particulière est accordée au rythme et au langage. L’atmosphère alterne résolument lourdeur et ludisme. La pièce Rouge Gueule, d'Étienne Lepage, présente une mécanique visant manifestement à « attaquer » l'Autre, qu’il s’agisse d’un personnage ou du lecteur-spectateur. Les attaques se perpètrent d'une part par un humour cru, influencé par la culture populaire, le trivial; un humour qui fonctionne de manière plutôt classique en convoquant des procédés aisément repérables et sans cesse réutilisés par l'auteur. D’autre part, la mécanique de « combat » se manifeste par l'invective, ainsi que par une violence caractérisée, du début à la fin, par un manque dans la motivation des actions. Ainsi, l’étude Attaques à vide. Bousculer la situation théâtrale au confluent de l’humour et la violence s’intéresse à Rouge Gueule, aux relations qu'entretiennent l’humour et l'univers brutal de la pièce, dans la perspective où l’humour est inextricablement lié à la violence. Une attention particulière est portée sur le personnage type de Lepage de même que sur l’esthétique de « l'arsenal » trash. Cette dernière est analysée afin de mieux circonscrire les attaques : sont-elles des moyens, et le cas échéant, pour parvenir à quelle fin puisque la fable, et donc la « quête », dans le théâtre contemporain est souvent remise en question. Cette étude verra comment les attaques « à vide », sont, chez Lepage, la force motrice de ce que Hans-Thies Lehmann nomme la « situation théâtrale ».

Appreciation of humor sense in college students

Appreciation of humor includes several cognitive and social processes. None can say that two communities will laugh at the same jokes and find funny the same humorous content. This study worked differences in humor appreciation of university students and comparisons were made between sex and age of participants. To assess the appreciation of humor was built an instrument with 15 written jokes. This instrument was presented to a total sample of 81 students, divided into 3 groups of different age. Participants had to evaluate two aspects: the playfulness and the difficulty of each stimulus or humorous vignette. The jokes that showed significant differences in jocularity have a particular structure marked for a disqualifying content to men, indicating, as noted the literature, that men have more fun with sexual humor and prefers this kind of jokes as well as content related to aggressive or hostile, while women have more fun with humorous vignettes when the man is the victim and reject more when the victim is a woman. In terms of age and the appreciation of humor, there are differences in the type of situations and social contexts valued in the jokes, involving relationship between situational and social aspects of humor.

Análisis de la influencia que ejercen las dinámicas de la violencia infantil en la favela Rocinha de Río de Janeiro, sobre la agenda del fondo de naciones unidas para la infancia (unicef): período 2008-2012

Este trabajo explica la realidad brasileña de las favelas, en particular las que se ubican en la ciudad de Rio de Janeiro. Así mismo, se pretende ubicar al lector en la favela Rocinha, y en uno de los principales problemas que enfrentan sus habitantes: la violencia infantil, o violencia contra los niños. La incapacidad del Estado para dar solución a este problema ha llevado a instituciones como UNICEF a crear alternativas para mitigarlo, por lo que es importante analizar esa nueva agenda, traducida en el primer ciclo del programa "Plataforma de Centros Urbanos". Se ha escogido el trabajo de campo como herramienta metodológica para dar cuenta de tal realidad, y para llegar a la conclusión de que un problema social puede, efectivamente, modificar la determinación de una agenda institucional.

Participação Infantil: experiência de pesquisa realizada em organização social na Zona Oeste do Rio de Janeiro

Este trabalho se propõe a ser um fio na teia de reflexões que tecem o debate sobre a participação infantil a partir do ponto de vista das crianças em co-operação com adultos. Sua trama se compõe de campos distintos e autônomos - infância, direito social e participação -, que se cruzam e inter-relacionam, investigados no âmbito de uma experiência realizada na organização social Fundação Xuxa Meneghel, que tem como eixo central de suas ações a promoção e a proteção de crianças e adolescentes que vivem em situação de vulnerabilidade social na Zona Oeste do município do Rio de Janeiro. Trata-se de uma micro-experiência, que pretende compreender o ser criança em relação aos seus direitos humanos e sociais, observando sua influência nas práticas sociais presentes na nossa cultura. O direito à participação infantil - entendida como ferramenta para a auto-proteção e a promoção das crianças como sujeitos plenos exercitando a cidadania - se materializou numa investigação em que as concepções metodológicas convencionais foram se re-construindo por meio das vozes infantis em diálogo com seus pares e com os adultos. As crianças apresentaram seus pontos de vista e as significações que atribuem ao seu entorno e a suas possibilidades e limites de participar de forma genuína nas suas principais instâncias de socialização: família, escola e comunidade. A experiência se constitui numa provocação do olhar para as identidades e as culturas das crianças que dela participaram, para suas vivências expressas por representações de ações e emoções contextualizadas no tempo e no espaço, numa tentativa de compor com elas - e ampliando para todas as crianças da instituição - uma compreensão do que significa o direito de participar, ensinado e apreendido em perspectiva social e cultural.

A formação da identidade numa perspectiva educacional

Este trabalho procura elucidar alguns conceitos teóricos de identidade, como é entendida por diferentes autores, como nós a interpretamos e como o processo educacional influencia o desenvolvimento da identidade dos adolescentes. Para isso recorremos ao fenômeno da identificação, aos conflitos intra-psíquicos, particularmente no período da adolescência, e aos vínculos de integração espacial, temporal e social. Consideramos a identidade estruturada por três níveis fundamentais: pelas estruturas mais desenvolvidas da personalidade, caracterizada pela relação interpessoal, baseada nos mecanismos de projeção e introjeção; pelos mecanismos de identificação projetiva-introjetiva e pela persistência da fusão ou estrutura sincicial primitiva que caracteriza a sociabilidade sincrética. Partimos da concepção de identificação como a forma mais primitiva de ligação afetiva. Tomamos a conquista da identidade corporal e sexual como a base das demais identidades parciais. A formação da identidade como um todo, que pressupõe uma crise na adolescência, baseia-se na problemática mais específica da formação de uma identidade sexual. Enquanto a identificação se opera através de introjeções, a identidade resulta da oposição de identificações anteriores. O processo é dialético. Somos de opinião que a identidade é formada por processos eminentemente sociais. Uma vez formada, é mantida, modificada ou mesmo remodelada pelas relações sociais. Nossa preocupação centralizou-se no processo de formação de identidade, considerado em estreita relação çom a família, a escola e a sociedade e em contínua interaçao professor-aluno, ensino-aprendizagem. Tentamos detectar as influências da educação sistematizadas no processo de formação da identidade e em especial visualizar o papel do professor no referido processo, através de pesquisa de campo. Para isso elaboramos um questionário composto de duas partes. A primeira contendo dados de identificação do aluno, da família e da escola. A segunda, composta de 40 perguntas consideradas, inferencialmente, como indicadores dos vínculos de integração espacial, temporal e social. Os sujeitos de nossa pesquisa constituiram-se de 176 alunos, na faixa etária de 14 anos, masculinos e femininos, de 5ª e 8ª series, do ensino de 1º grau das escolas da rede estadual de Divinopolis, M.G., em 1978. A análise dos dados obtidos evidenciou o desenvolvimento de nossos sujeitos em termos de identificação com os grupos primários, predominando a dependência em nível infantil.

Canções no ensino de sociologia: reflexões e aplicação

As Sociology becomes a mandatory subject in the curricular componentof Brazilian high schools, we find anopportune moment to proposals and changes in the subject and in teaching, in a general aspect. It s noticed the great importance of the role that the create imagination plays in individual s formation (BACHELARD), and it s also seen that Brazilian education system has marginalized imagination to the detriment of a unifocused scientism that sterilizes creativity, playfulness and poetry in its educational process. Nevertheless, a way of thinking redefinitions to the educational horizons of Sociology as a subject and education is upheld. An educational practice that reconnects the prosaic and the poetic, using images/songs as paths/strategies of the teaching-learning process. As for that, the school structure was used where the tutor work was done to undertake experiences that made the use of songs as strategy to facilitate/stimulate the learning of the subject Sociology in high school. From thoughts and results of this experience, plus the bibliographic studies, analysis were made. The goal of this essay is to make use and stimulate the creation of poetic images from the teaching point of view, specially the Sociology subject in high school, rethinking and searching more efficient and playful ways of approaching and building educational methods from images; stimulating the development of the Thinking Reform and the Anthropoetics of the human gender (MORIN); acknowledging that imagination is an indispensable part of our integral formation

Escola e gênero : representações de gênero na escola

The study Escola e Gênero: representações de gênero na escola show us the social man made, starting of an analysis in the having fun time in the children´s life and how it´s an important aspect of the building childish universe simbolic. My analysis started in a children´s daily at school and how they noticed the play value od dominant society. Our propouse is think about the linking between ideology, representations and gender like the children´s knowledge in the school activities. The toy, an instrument which is noticed and exist in the funny activities, is full of cultural concepts of male and female parts. Your color, lines, functions and the way you manipulate is driven of gender cathegories. In the scool, the ideological concepts have it´s important way which is to domesticate the feelings, the desires; categorize and normalize them without be known by the educational employers. In the children´s education, the funny time is noticed by others ways and turned as important as others subjects. By the way it´s not noticed by the school, like another thing which isn´t a funny moment. And it´s exactly here in the school funny time, the school did your cultural power of separete the gender and your extencions, feed by the society, generaly, in favor of the man whose woman is your subordinate. This ways of analysis help the society and the school universe about the funny time e how they are important in the Man made life. And how the toys bring the concepts and addicted thinking, ideological which put the power in the stages, without equal, addicted feelings around the gender concepts. I read and used the theories of Kishimoto, Berger & luckmann, Brougère, Sousa Filho, Bourdieu, Badinter, Geertz, Grossi, Louro, Foucault, among others

This paper shows a content analysis with the intention of offering signification to the work Children My Love (1924) according to the investigation of specific categories: child, motherhood and schooling; through the exploration of synonymous and bipolar key-words found in Cecília s documents: child/adult, teacher/mother; school/home, ignorance/intelligence. The research intends to understand how the author articulates, in her informal pedagogical action in Children s Literature, science, literary and Christian faith knowledge, in order to expand her social and educational ideal concentrated in children, guided by the maternal hand and aimed at constructing a New Man, New Civilization and a New Social Order

Como se fora brincadeira de roda: a ciranda da ludopoiese para uma educação musical humanescente

The present work concerns an auto-ethnographic study based on life experiences and reflections of an educator at Escola Viva Preschool and Elementary-Middle School, located in the city center of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. As a cognitive model of operation, we use the metaphor of the Circle Dance. The objective of this study is to identify, interpret and describe the ludopoetics that are achieved through a Musical Education program, which we denominate, Humanescent. The data of this investigation was derived from the music making by Preschool and Elementary-Middle School students at Escola Viva during 2007, 2008 and 2009, from which 20 learners were selected to form the corpus, along with the description and interpretation of photos of their experiences and sand tray scenes. We justify the methodological systemization of the research based on our own pedagogical practice, which supports Musical Education in the schools based on the principals of Embodiment, Autopoesis and Flow. The methodological systemization was developed through an Action Research model and on the concepts of Systemic Development, with the goal of re-reading the context investigated through the structuring of categories of Ludopoesis: Self-esteem, Self-territory, Self-connectivity, Self-realization and Selfworth. We used an observant-participant research approach with regard to the perception of emergent knowledge, the surroundings, the experience lived and the contextual and vibration of the circumstances. Besides this, we used projection to interpret the experiences lived, in the form of drawings, short poems, letters or sand tray scenes as symbolic interpretations of experience. In the unfolding of the Ludopoetic Process (Selfesteem, Self-territory, Self-connectivity, Self-realization and Selfworth) we draw conclusions about the relevance of the ludic musical experience, which foments the formation of the self based on music learning, and which is demonstrated in the Embodiment of the learners. In the auto-formative process (of learners and educators) we observe the importance of pedagogical work based on Musical Humanescent Education that gives value to the music making path to the construction of music and performance in play, creativity, and sensibility. The experience of making music in a playful way allows for organization of the self and its autonomous production in the joy of living within a ludopoetic process. These findings highlight the educator as in a permanent state of selfformation, which generates moments of flow. However, in Musical Humanescent Education, music is learned collectively, doing a circle dance, experiencing love, fostering an expansion of the creative spirit, and giving recognition to playfulness as a necessary condition for education and to the value of music made with the true nature and sensibilities of the educators

A rotina de crianças de zero a dois anos na educação infantil e as especificidades infantis

In current upbringing production, children are often conceived as rightful subjects, and concrete and singular people, marked by specificities that schools must respect, mainly their personal wholeness, their care and attention needs, as well as their abilities to learn and produce culture. In the educational practices frame, routine is considered to have a definitive roll in time, space and activities structuring, as with actions and relations of subjects involved. In that perspective, this research aims to analyze routines of zero to two years old children in the upbringing context, relating to their childish specificities. Anchored in the qualitative approach, a Case Study was developed, according the procedures of daily routine observation and semi-structured interviews with six nursery teachers of CMEI Centro Municipal de Educação Infantil, Natal-RN, the research field. The data analysis was based in Speech Analysis principles. The teachers utterances regarding routine and it s roll in the frame revealed significances related to control/regulation of actions theirs and students aiming to streamline tasks; learning relative to routine itself, time and school practices. Thus, prospects of discipline and exercise of power of teachers over students surges, reducing their possibilities to participate. These conceptions reflect the daily routine of the kids and their teachers. By analyzing the methods of routine operation in the time/space/activities frame of CMEI, it was possible to perceive its homogenization of actions and rhythms, not only of the group s children, but the whole institution, which creates, many times, a controlling character that contains/prevents children s initiative. However, it was also possible to observe that in routine recesses, when it s relaxed, and other spaces, times and actions are provided, kids have the opportunity to experience and create different ways of action and relation with time, materials, other kids and teachers, being, as such, respected their specificities. We highlight the importance of reflections regarding routine in upbringing context, as to comprehend it s functions and the need for it s construction to take a multiple character that respects the plurality of situations and singularities of children as persons

Narrativas infantis: o que nos contam as crianças de suas experiências no hospital e na classe hospitalar

This dissertation focuses on the narratives of children hospitalized with chronic diseases. The overall goal is to deduce, from the look of the child health care, hospital class contributions to the process of school inclusion. The research is part of the qualitative ethnographical approach and is based on the principles and research methods (auto)biographical in education and schooling in hospital. Participated in the investigation 05(five) children, aged between 06 (six) and 12 (twelve) years of age, treated at the Center for Children s Onco-Hematology, Varela Santiago Children s Hospital in Natal-RN. The corpus used for the analysis comprises five (05) narrative interviews, 03 (three) drawings made by children as well as records in the researcher s field diary. The sources were collected during the months of August 2010 to February 2011. The analysis revealed that the inclusion of the hospital class, and ensure the right to education, contributes to the construction of strategies for coping with illness and hospitalization, as it promotes autonomy, comfort, playfulness and self-knowledge, the rand the world, easing the stress of hospitalization. The figure of the teacher took the class hospital in the voices of children, a reliever and minimizing the role of double exclusion that cause illness and hospitalization, showing the contributions to (re) construction of identity and subjectivity constitution strengthened. The children interviewed said that the hospital class leave the hospital more cheerful. The playfulness and learning experiences in the hospital are seen by children as actions that go beyond the physical treatment of the disease, since it provides them with acceptance and understanding of hospitalization and illness, to give them affective security and emotional. In conclusion, the narratives of children confirm that the service class hospital ensures continuity of schooling, but they reveal, namely, that this service provides them socialization among peers and with adults, strengthening the emotional, social and cognitive biopsychosocial perspective of attention

Corporeidade e humanescência: cenários ludopoiéticos na vida de professores contadores de história

During the latest years, the art of storytelling has received special attention from those who make education, art and culture. The storyteller is a singular person who manages to seduce itself and its listeners, by involving them in an atmosphere of pleasure and complicity, dodging situations, space and time, providing delight, stimulating creativity, daydreaming and imagination. This is a study developed with storyteller teachers that takes as its starting point the need to change the landscape of education, which seeks to emphasize the affirmation of embodiment of the teacher, so that it participates in a creative self-dynamic and the context in which they live. In addition , the following purposes accompanied the study : education - liberating practice and human development ; corporality - radiant , first and main focus of educational criteria; playfulness - a human dimension ; autopoiese - as an organization of human beings that produces and continuously transforms itself; flow experience concerns the feeling of full involvement in the activity , the psychic energy toward something that is being produced or performed , something that brings us pleasure , happiness and profound sense of well being. As general objective of the study we analysed the humanescent self-formation and its ludopoiética nature in storyteller teachers from humanescent workshops developed in a state school in Natal / RN. In view of the overall objective , we developed the following specific objectives : to identify the ludopoiéticas properties of self-worth , self-connectivity , self-territoriality , autotelia and self realization present in the life of storyteller teachers and the changes in the school environment, from the development of humanescent workshops; reveal the nature of humanescent self-training in storyteller teachers lives. The investigated group had the participation of eight teachers, and had the Escola Estadual Potiguassu as environment for the research. This is a descriptive study, understood as an action-research , developed with basis in the fundamentals and ethnomethodological principles , which used eight humanescents workshops , developed in the context of humanescent experiential pedagogy in conjunction with participant observation .The analyzes were focused on the chosen categories for the study : self-worth , self-connectivity , self-territoriality , autotelia and self-, indexicality and reflexivity . In terms of conclusions, we noted that the properties of ludopoiese were unveiled in the lives of the teachers by providing changes in their ways of being and living together. The teachers have become more creative and intensely began to experience their own life, social life, as well as its meaning. The struggle for a more cheerful and happy school was another important development highlighted in the reports of the teachers, also observing that there was a significant improvement in the reduction of violence in the school environment. Thus, we emphasize that the teachers began to recognize themselves like being ludic, playing with the beauty of storytelling and life
