Religião cristã e ciência moderna: uma análise comparativa dos discursos nas obras Os fundamentos, organizada por A. R. Torrey, e Religião e ciência de Bertrand Russell

Religião e ciência submetidas à Análise do Discurso Crítica. O fundamentalismo protestante a partir da obra Os fundamentos e a ciência moderna sob a perspectiva da obra de Bertrand Russell Religião e ciência, ambas as obras submetidas a uma análise crítica de seus discursos a partir da concepção faircloughiana para assim delinear seus textos, discursos, intenções e práticas sociais. O advento da modernidade, ao influenciar os diversos segmentos da sociedade e alterar a maneira de o indivíduo se relacionar com Deus, com a natureza e com seu semelhante, consequentemente, também alterou algumas percepções religiosas existentes até a Idade Média. A modernidade se destaca ao propiciar à humanidade outras possibilidades para lidar com seus problemas cotidianos e questões existenciais. Recorrer às técnicas científicas para solucionar problemas da natureza, melhorar a produção agrícola, curar doenças, ou até mesmo prever catástrofes naturais abriu precedente para que o homo religiosus ampliasse seus horizontes rumo ao moderno e questionasse a importância da vida religiosa como apresentada até então. O sagrado e o profano entram em debate acirrado. Enquanto a era da razão conquista seu espaço por meio do racionalismo, o mundo religioso se esforça para se reinventar e enfrentar um novo mundo com suas ideologias atraentes. Religião e ciência se aferram a seus espaços para delinearem seus limites, mas sempre contemplando e considerando um magistério em comum: a ciência moderna.

A dimensão religiosa da cultura na poesia de Vinicius de Moraes

Quando se fala de religião, normalmente o que se ouve das instituições eclesiásticas são os dogmas, interpretações da fé que, muitas vezes estão fora da realidade vivida pelas pessoas no cotidiano. Por isso deseja-se observar os versos de Vinícius de Moraes à luz da teologia da cultura, para mostrar que as dimensões religiosas se apresentam também em sua poesia. Esta descreve, dentre outros temas, a beleza da vida, o amor, a alegria, e também, a tristeza e a solidão. Para alcançar tal finalidade, esta pesquisa utiliza-se do Método da Correlação, desenvolvido por Paul Tillich para pensar as conexões entre teologia e cultura, e do método da correspondência, que complementa o método da correlação, no que se refere ao diálogo com a literatura.

JORNALISMO CULTURAL E SOCIABILIDADE MODERNA: ESTUDO DO CADERNO EU&FIM DE SEMANA DO JORNAL VALOR ECONÔMICO

O trabalho analisa se o jornalismo cultural praticado pelo caderno EU&Fim de Semana do jornal Valor Econômico, ao incorporar certos assuntos e fenômenos decorrentes da modernidade aos conteúdos com abordagem e mentalidade culturais e universalizadas, rompe o paradigma do Jornalismo Cultural tradicional alargando este conceito, até então restrito aos acontecimentos considerados tradicionais da área da cultura, como cinema, pintura, literatura, museu, dança, música, teatro, gastronomia e turismo. O corpus da pesquisa foi composto pelo assunto principal de capa de 32 edições e resultou na análise de 75 matérias. O referencial teórico utilizado é a sociologia da cultura de Pierre Bourdieu por meio da teoria dos campos, espaço social, habitus de classe e o desejo de distinção de uma elite cosmopolita. Contudo, não se constitui uma prática jornalística sem compromisso social. As análises quantitativa e qualitativa compõem a metodologia que identifica a presença de debates, de tensões e de conflitos, o conceito de Jornalismo Cultural, o caráter cosmopolita do jornalismo no início do século XXI, bem como os valores culturais adotados pelo caderno que abastecem o público com visão prismática para ler e reconhecer o mundo.(AU)

Heidegger e a técnica moderna

The general objective of this research is to clarify and discuss the original contribution of Martin Heidegger's philosophical reflection on the essence of modern technique. For this purpose, it was structured the interpretative course of this dissertation in two essential moments. At first, we present Heidegger's interpretation of the essence of the modern age which, in turn, will be recognized from the metaphysical foundation that establishes the essence of modern science: the subjectivity that represents, calculates, manages and produces the real. We will see which, in this context, modern science was still thought close to the modern technology, what will change considerably from the writings of the post-war, in which Heidegger thinks modern science from a much broader and essential process in that the essence of the technique has already been unfolding. Thus, in a second moment, we will analyze how, for Heidegger, the modern metaphysics of subjectivity reached its completion at the time of modern art from the principle of control and planning of entities in general (Gestell), revealing the nontechnical sense of the technique (beyond the anthropological, humanistic and instrumental view) as well as the threatening character of modern technique in its conversion project of the entity from the reserve fund (Bestand).

Do ancoradouro à sala de espera: as obras de melhoramento do porto e a construção de uma Natal moderna (1893-1913)

Through the nineteenth century, it was constant in the discourse of the local norte-rio-grandenses (Natal city, Brazil) administrators, the appeal for subsidy to the central government for the works of the port of Natal upgrade. The port in the capital, the main route of the Rio Grande do Norte communication, because of the limitations attached to it, as the dunes surrounding the city spreading sand in the riverbed, and several reefs located along the coast, did not allow the entry in his berth larger ships. These difficulties brought major problems the province, who could not hold the flow of production coming from the inside, resulting in the north of Rio Grande political scene, questioning the centrality of Christmas position in the province. Only Republican scheme had been approved credit by the federal government for the improvement works of the port. The port became the Republican political discourse Potiguar one of the main promises to bring "progress" the Potiguar land, being placed as a central issue of which depend on the "future" of the state. The objective of this study is to analyse the emergence of a new port concept in speeches and interventions of the local ruling groups in the early twentieth century. We analyse the emergence of a modern notion of port, marked by the organizing effort, rationalization and regulation of port activities by the state, and the new relationship assumed by the harbour front to the city resulting from this new perception. The port has become for local leaders to groups of capital "waiting room", requiring change of the composition of urban space for integrating the port to the city. The Port of Natal became endowed with a pedagogical function, incorporating the urban fabric, codes, values and practices considered by local managers as modern and civilized. This new city space, considered a "waiting room", caused conflicts between the local ruling groups and influential figures in the Potiguar political field, which sought to encourage with the process of organizing the harbour front undesirable regarded figures in the city views as an impediment to the image of progress and modernity that the dominant groups intended to expose the port.

A noção de sistema na fundação da linguística moderna

This work is intended to investigate the saussurian notion of system. Such a notion is fundamental to Ferdinand de Saussure's theorization, since it composes the definition of "langue", as he thought it. This definition was crucial to the delimitation of linguistics' specific object of study, which granted its place among modern sciences. However, the notion of system was not created by Saussure. Not only in Linguistics, but also in other areas, this notion appeared in very ancient studies, mingling with the establishment of man in society and the development of their economic and organizational activities. Specifically, in the context of language studies, the system consists in a notion that composed the work of the first grammarians in the West, in ancient Greece. Moreover, this notion was also used afterwards, in the synonymy studies and in the comparative analysis of languages, developed by scholars of the nineteenth century. Nevertheless, although Saussure had had his formation in Leipzig and Berlim, amid comparatists studies, his notion of system is an innovation, while is also continuing. In light of this, we aim to highlight the aspects of the saussurian notion of system that allow the establishment of a relationship of continuity and rupture with other conceptions of system. For that, we will investigate four Saussure authored documents: the « Cours de linguistique générale », the « Mémoire sur le système primitif des voyelles dans les langues indo-européennes », and the two sets of manuscripts « De l'essence double du langage » and « Notes pour le cours III ».

Yes, nós temos arquitetura moderna! Reconstituição e análise da arquitetura residencial moderna em Natal das décadas de 50 e 60

Brazilian architecture was recognized because of the consecration of the icons of the Carioca and Paulista schools which are represented nationally and internationally by names like Niemeyer, Lucio Costa and Vilanova Artigas, among others. Because of this, classic studies dedicated to the Brazilian case look to present the Southeastern region with the title of father of modern Brazil, at the cost of subjugating various other modern movements and peripheral sayings, whether their values are known or forgotten. On the other hand, there has been an effort, in the sense of registering and analyzing these regional productions of modern Brazilian architecture, an assignment that DOCOMOMO Brasil participates firmly through initiatives like the creation of a Library to aid in the documentation and registration of modernity in Brazil. Inside this context of insertions of the National-Modern scheme, this work has as its objective to present modern potiguar (northern Brazil) architecture through its contemporary residential examples, investigating specifically its constructive, formal aspects, that together that together demonstrate one more architectural emphasis of modern Brazilian architecture: the potiguar. This way, by contributing to the work of the register and the documentation of the Modern Movement and attributing to the modern architecture of Natal it s real worth, we can say: Yes, we have modern architecture

A poesia na revista alegretense "Ibirapuitã" (1938/1939)

A revista Ibirapuitã foi criada pelo poeta e jornalista Felisberto Soares Coelho, em Alegrete, interior do Rio Grande do Sul, ao final dos anos trinta. O periódico promoveu a divulgação de autores locais e considerável efervescência cultural no município. No presente trabalho, busca-se o resgate da poesia veiculada pela revista em sua fase inicial, compreendida entre os anos de 1938 e 1939, por se tratar de gênero que se destaca ao longo de seu percurso editorial. Ademais, pretende-se analisar tal produção abarcada em uma organização temática, estabelecendo relações com a história da literatura. Por meio da localização, catalogação e leitura do mensário foram selecionados trinta e nove poemas, obedecendo ao critério de freqüência/ocorrência de publicação de cada colaborador. Como resultado, além da análise da produção poética, pretende-se organizar uma antologia acompanhada de notas biobibliográficas e material iconográfico. Desta forma, pretende-se facilitar o acesso pela comunidade a uma das publicações que possivelmente contribuiu para a formação do sistema literário sul-rio-grandense, proporcionando abertura a novos estudos referentes à história da literatura alegretense.

Homoerotismo feminino na lírica grega arcaica: a poesia de Safo

Desde a Época Helenística até aos nossos dias, a singularidade da poesia de Safo revelou-se um tema controverso, não apenas pelo carácter fragmentário dos textos ou devido à escassa informação sobre a sua praxis no contexto da lírica arcaica grega, mas também por nela aparecer configurada a primeira expressão literária de homoerotismo feminino, que as línguas modernas designam por “lesbianismo” ou “amor sáfico. Se bem que inquestionavelmente anacrónicos e imprecisos, esses termos dominam, hoje, a linguagem sobre a homossexualidade feminina, convertendo a poetisa de Lesbos num ícone singular da moderna conceptualização do amor entre mulheres.

O balanceamento entre as posições esquizo-paranóide e depressiva (PS↔D) na psicodinâmica criativa

No presente trabalho de psicanálise extra-clínica aplicada ao estudo de objectos culturais artísticos, o autor procura mostrar a pertinência da aplicação do modelo bioniano dos elementos em psicanálise, nomeadamente o das inter-relações entre as posições esquizo-paranóide e depressiva (PS↔D) ao processo criativo artístico, isto é, a compreensão de obras artísticas modernas como o resultado da oscilação permanente entre os modos distintos de pensar/sentir dispersivo e integrativo, ilustrando com obras de vários campos artísticos: do teatro (Galileu Galilei de Brecht), da pintura (cubismo de Picasso), da literatura (Ulisses de Joyce) e da dança moderna.

Avaliação física do tomate de mesa 'Romana' durante manuseio na pós-colheita

Tomato postharvest losses are very high in Brazil and the goal of this research was to evaluate the effect of handling and the transport of tomato fruits, cultivar Romana on the steps of harvesting, weight and transportation to the packinghouse, pointing some critical points. Tomatoes were harvested at plastic boxes, weighted and shipped to a packinghouse. Fruits taken directly from the plant were determined as reference. The parameters evaluated were weight loss and mechanical injury and tomato physical quality after storage during 21 days. It was observed an increasing on the weight loss, external damage, and postharvest losses, after storage. Handling and transportation were the cause of an increase in 6.6% in external damage and 1.93% of weight loss after storage, when comparing harvested fruits and fruits evaluated on the packing-house. The main reason for postharvest losses was due to mechanical injury caused during transportation mainly due to the compressure force among fruits and against the plastic boxes.

Inibidor da ação do etileno na conservação pós-colheita de Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat cv. Dragon

The durability and postharvest quality of cut flowers are fundamental attributes in value along the production chain and in consumer satisfaction. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of chemical inhibitors of ethylene action on maintaining the postharvest quality of chrysanthemum stems (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat cv. Dragon). The experiment tested maintenance solutions with silver thiosulfate (STS) under five levels (distilled water, a 0.2 mM STS, the STS 0.2 mM + sucrose at 50 g L-1, STS at 0.4 mM; STS at 0.4 mM + sucrose at 50 g L-1), and date of sampling, for three levels (0, 3, 6 days). Three replications with two flower stems in each treatment were used in the experiment. Physical assessments were made: color, fresh mass and relative water content; chemical evaluations: reducing sugars and pigments, and qualitative assessments: turgidity, flower color, and number of buds, open flowers and partially open flowers. Treatment with 0.2 mM STS resulted in better maintenance of fresh mass of stems. The concentration of pigments and reducing sugar was higher in those treatments in which sucrose was associated. The color and relative water content were favored in treatments STS 0.2 mM and 0.4 mM. The concentration of 0.2 mM STS obtained the best results, prolonging the vase life the stems. The quality of these stems was higher, with the best assessments of water content, color and turgidity.

Soluções de manutenção na pós-colheita de Chrysanthemum morifolium cv. Dragon

The development and use of techniques that extend the life vase of the flowers, maintaining the quality of the product, is essential for reducing postharvest losses. The objective of this work was to evaluate different solutions for maintenance, associated or not to sucrose, in maintaining the postharvest quality of chrysanthemum stems. The treatments used distilled water, 8-HQC to 100 mg L-1, 8-HQC to 100 mg L-1 + sucrose 50 g L-1, 8-HQC to 200 mg L-1, 8-HQC to 200 mg L-1 + sucrose 50 g L-1. Physical assessments were made: color, fresh mass and relative water content; chemical evaluations: reducing sugars and pigments, and qualitative assessments: turgidity, color of the flowers, and number of buttons, open flowers and partially open flowers. The combination of 8-HQC 200 mg L-1 + sucrose 50 g L-1 was the best performance that made for maintaining the quality of flower stems, favoring the opening of buttons and turgidity of petals. Sucrose contributed to better maintenance of the reserve substances in the shaft, which had increased the flower vase life.

Qualidade pós-colheita de caqui 'fuyu' com utilização de diferentes concentrações de cobertura comestível

One of the main objectives of applying edible coatings on fruits surface is to create a protective film to reduce weight loss due to evaporation and transpiration and also to decrease the risk of fruit rot caused by environmental contamination, in order to improve the visual aspect. Therefore, it is possible to increase shelf life, and decrease post harvest losses. Persimmon is a much appreciated fruit, with high potential for export, but sensitive to handling and storage. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of applying the edible coating Megh Wax ECF-124 (18% of active composts, consisting of emulsion of carnauba wax, anionic surfactant, preservative and water) produced by Megh Industry and Commerce Ltda in three different concentrations (25, 50 and 100%) on post harvest quality of 'Fuyu' persimmon stored for 14 days. The attributes evaluated for quality were: firmness, pH, acidity, soluble solids, weight loss and color. The results showed that application of carnauba wax in different concentrations was effective on decreasing weight loss of persimmon cv. Fuyu and maintenance of color aspects. Treatment at lower concentration, 25%, showed lower rate of discharge, but high concentrations showed lower values of mass loss. Carnauba wax application showed a high potential for use on postharvest conservation, and can be applied together with other technologies, helping to maintain quality for export.
