Mãe-esposa e professora: educadoras no final do século XIX

This text is organized through discussions undertaken in the area of the History of Education in Rio Grande do Norte, circumscribed to the History of Women from the first decades of the Brazilian Republic, and to the analysis of what was expected of this education. We examined representations of women in Natal, between 1889 and 1914, with the goal of configuring relations between the sexes with the emphasis on moral, intellectual and pedagogical aspects required of these women. As documental sources we utilized the educational, civil and criminal Legislation, on a National scope, as well as on a State and Municipal scope. We circumscribed our search to the newspaper A República, in which we found literature that circulated in Natal in the form of pamphlets, short stories and poetry, as well as other texts by authors that were part of the corpus of analysis of this study, located in public and private archives in Rio Grande do Norte, such as the Historical and Geographic Institute of Rio Grande do Norte (IHGRN) and the State Public Archive of Rio Grande do Norte (APE-RN). The use of the indexing method and the propositions of Cultural History were the appropriate theoretical-methodological framework to complete studies of this nature. This operational perspective permitted us to elaborate nuances about this time of transition from the 19th to the 20th Century, and to spotlight the fire of the women from this period. The basis of the argument that related women to maternity and domesticity, and within the ideals of abnegation and religious leadership, aligned to a demand coming from the increase in the quantity of schools for women, allocated women as the most appropriate for superior in educational performance in the country, based on its foundations: primary education. Beyond the universe of formal education, the other side of women appeared in republican politics. The mother-spouse and the institutionalization of domestic education associated the female gender with the role of educator at home as well. Be it in the public sphere, as a teacher, or in private, as mother-spouse, female care is perceived in this configuration, as an educational base that the Republic, and in transition, bequeathed to the Brazilian 20th Century

Das relações entre imaginário e poesia na obra de Orides Fontela: o regime diurno da imagem

The present work seeks essentially to demonstrate how some anthropological structures of the imaginary, theorized by the French thinker Gilbert DURAND, projected themselves in a noticeable manner in the poetic work of the Brazilian poet Orides FONTELA. Chiefly we will demonstrate with great care in what way this projection and vivification occur through an imagination that not only materializes some fundamental archetypes of the human imagination, but also seeks to organize them through original poems in its form of presenting the poetic discourse, giving here a different contribution of the mythical or religious discourse, privileged places, since always, where the symbolic functions also manifest themselves

A Pilot Study Addressing the Impact of Religious Practice on Quality of Life of Breast Cancer Patients During Chemotherapy

The aim of this preliminary study was to investigate whether religious practice can modify quality of life (QoL) in BC patients during chemotherapy. QoL and religion practice questionnaire (RPQ) scores were evaluated in a sample of BC patients in different moments. Before chemotherapy initiation, women with lower physical and social functional scores displayed higher RPQ scores. On the other hand, low RPQ patients worsened some QoL scores over time. Body image acceptance was positively correlated with religious practice and specifically praying activity. This preliminary study suggests the importance of religion in coping with cancer chemotherapy. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.

O negro na literatura sob a perspectiva filosófico-literária de Friedrich Nietzsche e Bruno de Menezes: civilização, religião e corpo

A temática do negro na literatura tem ocupado cada vez mais espaço nas discussões e debates em torno da questão da valoração da cultura negra no Brasil, especialmente no que tange a aspectos tais como o desmascaramento de determinados estereótipos há muito alicerçados, mas, acima de tudo, tem assumido particular relevância o papel da resistência negra, que ora analisamos a partir da perspectiva de um viés social, perpassando os enfoques histórico, religioso e cultural. Cada um desses enfoques adiciona uma importância diferente para a presença negra na poesia de Bruno de Menezes, nosso objeto de investigação, daí ser possível deduzir, o que acreditamos ser de fundamental importância, não nos subtrairmos a nenhuma das abordagens ressaltadas. A obra que doravante analisaremos intitula-se Batuque, do poeta supracitado, obra esta responsável por inscrever no contexto da literatura amazônica, e mais que isso, no seio da cultura de cunho nacional, um novo capítulo, isto é, uma nova perspectiva acerca da condição do negro na sociedade brasileira. Aliando-se a essas perspectivas, acrescentaremos o ponto de vista do filósofo alemão Friedrich Nietzsche, como arcabouço teórico para as problematizações que pretendemos levantar no decorrer do texto. A presente pesquisa teve por objetivo investigar a influência do processo civilizador europeu versus negro e os cerceamentos (culturais/religiosos) decorrentes dessa influência, assim como as consequências negativas que incidirão sobre a perspectiva que o negro tem acerca de seu próprio corpo e lugar na cultura, muitas delas também provenientes da visão de mundo cristã que lhes foi imposta.
