O EVANGELHO SEGUNDO DOSTOIÉVSKI UMA ABORDAGEM INTERTEXTUAL DA IMAGEM DE CRISTO NO ROMANCE O IDIOTA

No romance O Idiota, Dostoiévski cria, por meio do príncipe Míchkin, uma personagem com as características do Cristo. Sabe-se que a Bíblia, principalmente o Novo Testamento, acompanhou o escritor desde sua infância até o momento de sua morte. O primeiro capítulo, dedicado ao referencial teórico da pesquisa, lida com o universo da linguagem. Tanto o texto literário quanto a literatura bíblica procedem do mito. Neste sen-tido, religião e literatura se tocam e se aproximam. O segundo capítulo foi escrito na intenção de mostrar como o Cristo e os Evangelhos são temas, motivos e imagens recorrentes na obra de Dostoiévski. A literatura bíblica está presente, com mais ou menos intensidade, em diversas das principais obras do escritor russo e não somente em O Idiota. A hipótese de que Dostoiévski cria um Cristo e um Evangelho por meio de O Idiota é demonstrada na análise do romance, no terceiro capítulo. A tese proposta é: Dostoiévski desenvolve um evangelho literário, por meio de Míchkin, misto de um Cristo russo, ao mesmo tempo divino e humano, mas também idiota e quixotesco. Na dinâmica intertextual entre os Evangelhos bíblicos e O Idiota, entre Cristo e Míchkin, a literatura e o sagrado se revelam, como uma presença divina. Nas cenas e na estruturação do enredo que compõe o romance, Cristo se manifesta nas ações de Míchkin, na luz, na beleza, mas também na tragicidade de uma trajetória deslocada e antinômica. O amor e a compaixão ganham forma e vida na presen-ça do príncipe, vazio de si, servo de todos.

Del hospital al balneario: arquitecturas para tratar y prevenir las enfermedades

En el presente artículo se estudian las relaciones existentes en materia de hospitales entre la disciplina de la arquitectura y la ciencia de la medicina en el periodo de las eras Moderna y Contemporánea (1450-1950), es decir: las influencias entre ambas a través de sus respectivos avances y descubrimientos; particularizado para Occidente y para las tierras valencianas. El recorrido jalona los tipos arquitectónicos hospitalarios cruciforme, radial, pabellonario y colonia, y los coloca en correspondencia paralela a las teorías médicas hipocrática y galénica, la miasmática, la taxonomía y la nosología, para finalizar con las teorías del higienismo (sanitary movement) y la teoría microbiana de las enfermedades con los cambios que esta última introduce, junto a otros de índole técnica. Esto supone un cierto distanciamiento entre arquitectura y medicina a partir del siglo XX. Con la revolución industrial el tiempo era dinero; con la revolución sanitaria el tiempo sería vida. A ello se añaden las relaciones entre las curas por hidroterapia, talasoterapia y climatoterapia con los balnearios termales y los marinos. Se asiste a la doble evolución: del enfrentamiento a la enfermedad como un acto de cura de agudos y la arquitectura vinculada entendida como una máquina para curar (los hospitales), al planteamiento de la salud como un acto de tratamiento de crónicos y prevención, entendiendo la arquitectura vinculada como residencias o lugares de residencia y/o ocio (los balnearios). Las obras y proyectos arquitectónicos más sobresalientes que ilustran el discurso son: el antiguo hospital general de Valencia (s. XVI), el hospital civil de Oliver en Alcoy (s. XIX), el antiguo hospital provincial de Alicante (s. XX), el balneario de Busot (ss. XIX-XX), el sanitarium de Babel (s. XIX) y el conjunto de balnearios marítimos que existían por toda la costa valenciana (desde Torrevieja hasta Benicásim) y que han desaparecido en su totalidad tras la II guerra mundial. Se efectúa un recorrido histórico por los tipos de hospitales, que se plantean como arquitecturas para curar las enfermedades, hasta la aparición de los balnearios, planteados como arquitecturas para prevenirlas.

Engineer Leandro Badarán’s project to safeguard the fortresses of Alicante in 1794

After the construction of the San Carlos bastion in Alicante in the final decade of the seventeenth century, and the great trench which the English built around the district of San Francisco during their years of dominance in the War of Succession, the waters of the San Blas gully caused serious damage to these fortifications of the city and to the trade buildings of the port. In 1772, the diversion canal was built. It was designed to divert the riverbed of the gully and send the waters directly to the sea. The project had been initially designed by the Engineer General, Jorge Próspero de Verboom in 1721. This unique work of engineering had some defects, principally in the breakwater which prevented the waters from flowing down the former river course. On several occasions, the water returned to its original riverbed due to the weakness of the breakwater, the narrowness of the channel’s bed and its lack of regularisation, causing serious damage to the bastion, the Babel-facing façade, the traders’ warehouses and other buildings. This study describes the project that the military engineer Leandro Badarán carried out in 1794 in order to technically improve this canal and examines his report on the state of the fortifications. Similar works built in Spain are also explained. It also analyses the repeated disputes between the war department and the port throughout these years over finding a technical solution to the problem.

All map collar and inset information is also available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical tables, directories, text, illustrations, index maps, legends, or other information associated with the principal map. This map shows features such as roads, drainage, built-up areas and selected buildings, ground cover, canals, windmills, and more. Relief shown pictorially. This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps from The Harvard Map Collection as part of the Imaging the Urban Environment project. Maps selected for this project represent major urban areas and cities of the world, at various time periods. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features at a large scale. The selection represents a range of regions, originators, ground condition dates, scales, and purposes.

Protection from experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by polyclonal IgG requires adjuvant-induced inflammation

BACKGROUND Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) proved to be an efficient anti-inflammatory treatment for a growing number of neuroinflammatory diseases and protects against the development of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a widely used animal model for multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS The clinical efficacy of IVIG and IVIG-derived F(ab')2 fragments, generated using the streptococcal cysteine proteinase Ide-S, was evaluated in EAE induced by active immunization and by adoptive transfer of myelin-specific T cells. Frequency, phenotype, and functional characteristics of T cell subsets and myeloid cells were determined by flow cytometry. Antibody binding to microbial antigen and cytokine production by innate immune cells was assessed by ELISA. RESULTS We report that the protective effect of IVIG is lost in the adoptive transfer model of EAE and requires prophylactic administration during disease induction. IVIG-derived Fc fragments are not required for protection against EAE, since administration of F(ab')2 fragments fully recapitulated the clinical efficacy of IVIG. F(ab')2-treated mice showed a substantial decrease in splenic effector T cell expansion and cytokine production (GM-CSF, IFN-γ, IL-17A) 9 days after immunization. Inhibition of effector T cell responses was not associated with an increase in total numbers of Tregs but with decreased activation of innate myeloid cells such as neutrophils, monocytes, and dendritic cells. Therapeutically effective IVIG-derived F(ab')2 fragments inhibited adjuvant-induced innate immune cell activation as determined by IL-12/23 p40 production and recognized mycobacterial antigens contained in Freund's complete adjuvant which is required for induction of active EAE. CONCLUSIONS Our data indicate that F(ab')2-mediated neutralization of adjuvant contributes to the therapeutic efficacy of anti-inflammatory IgG. These findings might partly explain the discrepancy of IVIG efficacy in EAE and MS.
