Eu mesma matei meu filho: do filicídio materno como poética trágica em Eurípides, Goethe e García Lorca

A presente tese investiga as poéticas do trágico nas obras teatrais de Eurípides (Grécia, c. 484 406 a.C.), Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (Alemanha, 1749 1832) e Federico García Lorca (Espanha, 1898 1936) e defende que, nos três autores, as concepções estéticas do trágico se constituem principalmente sobre a representação poética do filicídio materno. A antinomia trágica engendrada, metaforicamente, no assassinato da criança pelas mãos daquela que lhe deu a vida é tema de Medeia (431 a.C.), Tragédia de Margarida (1790) e Yerma (1934), obras fundamentais para compreender a visada trágica dos três poetas aqui, em respectivo, estudados. O conflito com o sagrado e com a razão, ao apontar para a afirmação trágica do corpo e do feminino, frequenta as três obras. O paralelismo entre as dimensões política e estética é, por conseguinte, patente nos três dramas, ao mesmo tempo em que cada um dos autores, com contexto e assinatura próprios, configura uma ideia estética acerca do trágico inteiramente singular. O diálogo entre literatura e filosofia, ou entre intuição e conceito, atravessa, nesta tese, a leitura do trágico na metáfora do filicídio. Sob tal perspectiva, a Medeia de Eurípides impõe-se no centro do debate entre socráticos e sofistas, e aborda temas, como o domínio das paixões sobre a razão, que também aliciaram autores como Platão, Aristóteles e Nietzsche. A Gretchentragödie, de Goethe, apresenta-se, por sua vez, como obra poética aonde convergem as mais calorosas discussões estéticas do moderno pensamento alemão, como as questões do sublime (Kant, Schiller) e da vontade (Schopenhauer). Yerma, de García Lorca, será também uma obra de convergência filosófica, expressando a nueva manera espiritualista que marca a última fase da produção lorquiana: a perspectiva trágica de Nietzsche, na afirmação do corpo como grande razão, assim como o diálogo de Lorca com o pensamento de Miguel de Unamuno sobre El sentimiento trágico de la vida, caracteriza uma espécie de tragédia às avessas, que nega o sagrado e afirma o trágico como síntese libertária do eu, do corpo e do feminino

Mitificación y oralidad en el otoño del patriarca de Gabriel García Márquez

El actual documento presenta los resultados de una investigación que vengo desarrollando hace algunos años sobre El Otoño del Patriarca. Esta investigación sufrió una importante variación en torno a la reflexión sobre los propósitos de la lectura filosófica de un texto literario, y ha sido consecuencia de, por un lado, un desplazamiento en la determinación de las relaciones entre las dimensiones del lenguaje, el poder, el tiempo y el espacio abiertos por la narración, y por otro, de una diferencia de concepción sobre la formación discursiva de estas relaciones en El Otoño del Patriarca como obra narrativa, oral y poética.

Global, regional, and national comparative risk assessment of 79 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or clusters of risks in 188 countries, 1990–2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013

Background The Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, and Risk Factor study 2013 (GBD 2013) is the first of a series of annual updates of the GBD. Risk factor quantification, particularly of modifiable risk factors, can help to identify emerging threats to population health and opportunities for prevention. The GBD 2013 provides a timely opportunity to update the comparative risk assessment with new data for exposure, relative risks, and evidence on the appropriate counterfactual risk distribution. Methods Attributable deaths, years of life lost, years lived with disability, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) have been estimated for 79 risks or clusters of risks using the GBD 2010 methods. Risk–outcome pairs meeting explicit evidence criteria were assessed for 188 countries for the period 1990–2013 by age and sex using three inputs: risk exposure, relative risks, and the theoretical minimum risk exposure level (TMREL). Risks are organised into a hierarchy with blocks of behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks at the first level of the hierarchy. The next level in the hierarchy includes nine clusters of related risks and two individual risks, with more detail provided at levels 3 and 4 of the hierarchy. Compared with GBD 2010, six new risk factors have been added: handwashing practices, occupational exposure to trichloroethylene, childhood wasting, childhood stunting, unsafe sex, and low glomerular filtration rate. For most risks, data for exposure were synthesised with a Bayesian meta-regression method, DisMod-MR 2.0, or spatial-temporal Gaussian process regression. Relative risks were based on meta-regressions of published cohort and intervention studies. Attributable burden for clusters of risks and all risks combined took into account evidence on the mediation of some risks such as high body-mass index (BMI) through other risks such as high systolic blood pressure and high cholesterol. Findings All risks combined account for 57·2% (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 55·8–58·5) of deaths and 41·6% (40·1–43·0) of DALYs. Risks quantified account for 87·9% (86·5–89·3) of cardiovascular disease DALYs, ranging to a low of 0% for neonatal disorders and neglected tropical diseases and malaria. In terms of global DALYs in 2013, six risks or clusters of risks each caused more than 5% of DALYs: dietary risks accounting for 11·3 million deaths and 241·4 million DALYs, high systolic blood pressure for 10·4 million deaths and 208·1 million DALYs, child and maternal malnutrition for 1·7 million deaths and 176·9 million DALYs, tobacco smoke for 6·1 million deaths and 143·5 million DALYs, air pollution for 5·5 million deaths and 141·5 million DALYs, and high BMI for 4·4 million deaths and 134·0 million DALYs. Risk factor patterns vary across regions and countries and with time. In sub-Saharan Africa, the leading risk factors are child and maternal malnutrition, unsafe sex, and unsafe water, sanitation, and handwashing. In women, in nearly all countries in the Americas, north Africa, and the Middle East, and in many other high-income countries, high BMI is the leading risk factor, with high systolic blood pressure as the leading risk in most of Central and Eastern Europe and south and east Asia. For men, high systolic blood pressure or tobacco use are the leading risks in nearly all high-income countries, in north Africa and the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. For men and women, unsafe sex is the leading risk in a corridor from Kenya to South Africa. Interpretation Behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks can explain half of global mortality and more than one-third of global DALYs providing many opportunities for prevention. Of the larger risks, the attributable burden of high BMI has increased in the past 23 years. In view of the prominence of behavioural risk factors, behavioural and social science research on interventions for these risks should be strengthened. Many prevention and primary care policy options are available now to act on key risks.

The conservation status of the world’s reptiles

Effective and targeted conservation action requires detailed information about species, their distribution, systematics and ecology as well as the distribution of threat processes which affect them. Knowledge of reptilian diversity remains surprisingly disparate, and innovative means of gaining rapid insight into the status of reptiles are needed in order to highlight urgent conservation cases and inform environmental policy with appropriate biodiversity information in a timely manner. We present the first ever global analysis of extinction risk in reptiles, based on a random representative sample of 1500 species (16% of all currently known species). To our knowledge, our results provide the first analysis of the global conservation status and distribution patterns of reptiles and the threats affecting them, highlighting conservation priorities and knowledge gaps which need to be addressed urgently to ensure the continued survival of the world’s reptiles. Nearly one in five reptilian species are threatened with extinction, with another one in five species classed as Data Deficient. The proportion of threatened reptile species is highest in freshwater environments, tropical regions and on oceanic islands, while data deficiency was highest in tropical areas, such as Central Africa and Southeast Asia, and among fossorial reptiles. Our results emphasise the need for research attention to be focussed on tropical areas which are experiencing the most dramatic rates of habitat loss, on fossorial reptiles for which there is a chronic lack of data, and on certain taxa such as snakes for which extinction risk may currently be underestimated due to lack of population information. Conservation actions specifically need to mitigate the effects of human-induced habitat loss and harvesting, which are the predominant threats to reptiles.

La traducción como “instrumento poético” : Raúl Gustavo Aguirre, ente Rimbaud y Char

Resumen: La figura del poeta-traductor encuentra en Raúl Gustavo Aguirre visos de complejidad altamente productivos para la teoría de la traducción. Principal difusor de la obra de René Char en la Argentina, Aguirre traduce y publica, desde el lugar del seguidor y discípulo, la obra de Char en los años cincuenta; con Char comparte, además, la devoción por Arthur Rimbaud, que el autor de Fureur et mystère considera intocable, “fenómeno cuya única razón es ser” (Char 1955). La hipótesis del artículo es que Aguirre construye, en base a su tarea como traductor de Illuminations y de Une Saison en enfer, su propia legitimidad como poeta, al intervenir sobre ese supuesto núcleo intocable que es, para Char, la poesía de Rimbaud.

Efectos del nivel de fertilización nitrogenada y la edad de corte en el rendimiento y calidad del sorgo forrajero (Sorghum vulgare Pers.)

Se realizó un experimento con sorgo forrajero durante los meses de julio a noviembre de 1989, en la empresa Agropecuaria Arábica Libia Nicaragua (ANILIB), situada 2 kilómetros al noreste de la localidad de Tisma-Masaya a 50 metros sobre el nivel del mar. En un suelo de la serie cofradía, derivada de cenizas volcánicas de origen aluvial de color pardo oscuro: la precipitación pluvial anual es de 1361,4 milímetros, la temperatura promedio mensual es de 27.5 grados centígrado (ºC). La evaporación total durante el periodo del ensayo fue de 19.05 milímetro y la humedad relativa media durante el periodo del ensayo fue de 82.6 por ciento (%). Se aplicaron niveles de nitrógeno de 0.45 y 90 kg por hectárea y frecuencia de corte de 42,56 y 70 días en un diseño bibacterial en bloques completamente al azar (b.c.a) en parcela dividida. Se utilizó la variedad de sorgo barrajero hibrido kaw- kandy. En los dos corte efectuados en su tres frecuencia el nivel que presento mayores rendimiento, 59.90 ton. De M.S., fue el nivel uno (45kg n/ha) y con el nivel dos (90 kg n/ha) se obtuvo 57.80 ton. M.S. siendo este el menor rendimiento. La proteína bruta el máximo rendimiento en los dos corte efectuados fue 6.91 ton. P.B y le correspondió al nivel uno y 5.980 ton. P.B. para el nivel cero (0 kg n/ha) siendo este e3l mejor rendimiento. Por lo que a los 56 días es el momento óptimo del corte de sorgo forrajero.
