Confluências e divergências conceituais em educação em saúde

A educação em saúde conheceu, no último século, profundas mudanças, tanto no plano conceitual como no das práticas dele decorrentes, fruto das transformações por que passou a humanidade em termos políticos, económicos e sociais. O conceito de educação desviou-se da perspectiva instruidora e escolarizadora de crianças e jovens, centrada na transmissão-assimilação de conhecimentos, para uma perspectiva mais abrangente e integradora, centrada na criação de condições que permitem aos indivíduos desenvolverem-se holisticamente na sua multidimensionalidade, em permanente interação com os outros. Por sua vez, o conceito de saúde perdeu o seu pendor negativo de ausência de doença, passando a ser entendido positivamente como um estado de completo bem-estar físico, mental, social e espiritual, em constante mutação ao longo da vida. Nesse sentido, a educação em saúde deixou também de ser vista como a transmissão de informação de caráter higienisto-sanitário, orientada para a prevenção ou o tratamento da doença, efetuada em contextos formais, para passar a ser entendida como a capacitação dos indivíduos para controlarem os seus próprios determinantes de saúde, através da criação ou do desenvolvimento de competências de ação. A educação e a saúde passam, pois, a apresentar-se como duas faces de um mesmo processo. Neste trabalho pretendemos, pois, analisar a evolução conceptual em torno da saúde e da educação no séc. XX, tentando perceber até que ponto essas mudanças conceptuais se têm refletido ao nível das práticas.

Sex, politics and social change in the eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries: Evidence from the Swiss Alps

The 18th century "sexual revolution" can not simply be explained as a consequence of economic or institutional factors - industrialization, agricultural revolution, secularization or legal hindrances to marriages: the example of western Valais (Switzerland) shows that we have to deal with a complex configuration of factors The micro-historical approach reveals that in the 18th and 19th century sexuality - and above all illicit sexuality - was a highly subversive force which was considerably linked to political innovation and probably more generally to historical change. Non-marital sexuality was clearly tied to political dissent ant to innovative ways of behaviour, both among the social elites and the common people. This behaviour patterns influenced crucial evolutions in the social, cultural and economic history of the region.

L'evolució dels estudis per a piano : del taller al gran repertori de concert

Aquest projecte final proposa un recorregut per l'evolució dels estudis per a piano des de la segona meitat del segle XVIII fins a l'inici del segle XX. El treball està format per tres capítols de recerca històrica i un d'anàlisi de les obres del recital que acompanya la part escrita. Aquestes peces han estat analitzades a partir dels coneixements adquirits en la recerca. Per tant, a través del treball escrit es contextualitza i justifica la selecció de les obres del concert.

La representació de la dona en les pintures de Goya : Reflexe d'una realitat social?

Treball de recerca que pretén respondre les següents preguntes: La visió de Goya sobre l'univers femení, i que plasma en les seves pintures, correspon amb la realitat social de les dones de la seva època? Es diu que el segle XVIII va ésser el segle de les dones, però és això realment cert? Va ser el segle de les dones o bé el segle d'algunes dones? A través de dos itineraris paral·lels: la literatura d'una banda i les arts plàstiques de l'altra, s'explorarà la naturalesa d'aquest segle. La comparació de l'anàlisi documental i de dades iconogràfiques potser ens podran donar una resposta.

Espais femenins en l'obra de Paul Gauguin

La societat actual figura arrelada a un discurs sobre el femení, que desenvolupat durant el segle XVIII s'ha anat obrint camí insistentment a través de les imatges. A través de l'obra del pintor Paul Gauguin aquest treball presten mostrar que el confinament de la dona a l'espai domèstic i la pretesa relació d'aquesta amb altres elements és fruit de la mateixa ideologia que confina a la dona a l'espai privat i a l'home a l'espai públic.

The philosophical foundations of classical "rDzogs chen" in Tibet : investigating the distinction between dualistic mind (sems) and primordial knowing (ye shes)

While the syncretistic Tibetan tradition known as rDzogs chen ("Great Perfection") has attracted considerable attention over the past few decades, its philosophical foundations remain largely unknown to those unacquainted with its primary sources. This thesis looks at the essentials of rDzogs chen philosophy through the lens of two principal distinctions that the tradition has considered indispensable for understanding its distinctive views and practices: dualistic mind (sems) versus primordial knowing (ye shes) and dharmakâya versus the 'ground of all' (kun gzhi) conditioned experience. Arguing that the distinctions provided classical rDzogs chen scholars with a crucial framework for (a) articulating the necessary conditions of nondual primordial knowing, the conditio sine qua non of rNying ma soteriology, and (b) schematizing the relationship between the exoteric and esoteric vehicles of Indian Buddhism within a unifying conception of the Buddhist path as the progressive disclosure of primordial knowing, the thesis shows how the rDzogs chen philosophy of mind has been integral to the tradition's complex soteriology. The thesis consists of two parts: (1) a detailed philosophical investigation of the distinctions and (2) an anthology of previously untranslated Tibetan materials on the distinctions accompanied by critical editions and introductions. The first part systematically invesigates the nature and scope of the distinctions and traces their evolution and complex relationships with Indian Buddhist Cittamâtra, Madhyamaka, Pramàriavàda, and Vajrayâna views. It concludes with an exploration of some soteriological implications of the mind/primordial knowing distinction that became central to rDzogs chen path hermeneutics in the classical period as authors of rDzogs chen path summaries used this distinction to reconcile progressivist sutric and non-progressivist tantric models of the Buddhist path. The translations and texts included in part two of the thesis consist of (a) a short treatise from Klong chen pa's Miscellaneous Writings entitled Sems dang ye shes kyi dris lan (Reply to Questions Concerning Mind and Primordial Knowing), (b) selected passages on the distinctions from this author's monumental summary of the rDzogs chen snying thig system, the Theg mchog mdzod (Treasury of the Supreme Vehicle), and (c) an excerpt on rDzogs chen distinctions taken from 'Jigs med gling pa's (1729-1798) 18th century Klong chen sNying thig path summary entitled Treasury of Qualities (Yon tan mdzod) along with a word-by- word commentary by Yon tan rgya mtsho (b. 19th c.).

Spiritual Kinship, Political Mobilization and Social Cooperation: a Swiss Alpine valley in the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries

In this chapter I will present some observations and results about Ritual Kinship and political mobilization of popular groups in an Alpine valley: the Val de Bagnes, in the Swiss canton of Valais, - a mountain valley, well known today thanks to the tourist station of Verbier - where we can rely on excellent sources about local families. This region presents a particular political situation, because the 11 major villages of the valley form only one commune, which includes the whole valley.¦There are two major reasons to choose the Val de Bagnes for our inquiry on kinship and social networks in a rural society:¦A. The existence of sharp political and social conflicts during the 18th and the 19th centuries;¦B. The existence of almost systematic genealogical data between 1700 and 1900. (Casanova, Gard, Perrenoud 2005-08)¦The 18th century was characterized by the struggle of an important part of the community of Bagnes against the feudal lord, the abbot of St-Maurice. The culminating point was a local upheaval in 1745 in Le Châble, during which the abbot was forced to sign several documents in accordance with the wishes of the rebels (Guzzi-Heeb 2007). In the 19th century feudal lordship was abolished, but now the struggle confronted a liberal-radical faction and the conservative majority in the commune.¦The starting point of my presentation focuses on this question: which role did spiritual kinship play in the political mobilization of popular groups and in the organization of competing factions? This question allows us to shed light on some utilizations and meanings of spiritual kinship in the local society. Was spiritual kinship a significant instrument for economic cooperation? Or was it a channel for privileged social contacts and transactions?
