La hermenéutica del descenso : El "viaje arqueológico" hacia el pasado, el inconsciente y la alteridad social en las obras de Bernardo Canal Feijóo y Arthur Ramos

Este trabajo explora los cruces tempranos entre psicoanálisis, folkore y literatura, en la obra ensayística de dos autores: el argentino Bernardo Canal Feijóo y el brasileño Arthur Ramos. Al rechazar la asociación del simbolismo popular con una ontología telúrica transhistórica, y al apelar al psicoanálisis, Canal produce una importante modernización del "folklore" como objeto de estudio. Desde una perspectiva epistemológica próxima (aunque ideológicamente divergente), también Ramos articula psicoanálisis y antropología para analizar el folklore afro-brasileño, confiando en alcanzar así el inconsciente colectivo popular

(Table 1) Geochemical composition of surface waters obtained aboard the R/V Rift along the Volga-Caspian canal

The Volga River discharge consists of the waters transferred by fast currents through channels and the waters which are passing through the shallow areas of the delta overgrown by cane. Using the hydrochemical data, it is possible to track distribution of the waters modified by 'biofilters' of macrophytes in the delta shallows starting from the external edge of the delta. The main distinctive features of these waters are the high content of dissolved oxygen, the abnormally high values of the pH, and the low content of dissolved inorganic carbon (both total and as CO2). These waters extend in the shape of 1 to 3-km-wide strips at a distance of 20-40 km from the outer border of the delta. The analysis of the data obtained during the expeditions run by the Institute of Oceanology of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 2003-2009, along with archived and published data, show that such 'modified' waters occur almost constantly along the outer edge of the Volga River delta.
