Show de Mamulengos de Heraldo Lins: construções e transformações de um espetáculo na cultura popular
Resumo:
The theater of puppets is one of the many expressions of popular culture which is marked by ongoing constructions and transformations in its symbolic representations as well as its characters and performances. In the city of Natal/RN, there is a manipulator called Heraldo Lins, an artist who operates such puppets, and has been performing his puppet since 1992. Lins has his own look at how he produces his performances and seeks to adjust his puppets to social and rentable contexts. Lins‟s performances are tailor-made in accordance with the request of his customers, as he makes up the passages and lines of his puppets according to his audience. This research aimed to study how the Heraldo Lins Mamulengos Show is built, especially its changes. We note that Lins chooses to dismantle the symbolic values of the tradition in the regular puppet theater once he adapts to modern patterns, placing himself between the traditional puppet theater and the cultural industry. The work in camp was made through a methodological focused in a participative observation and an audiovisual registry

En este trabajo de grado se aborda la relación entre las audiencias y los medios a partir de un estudio de recepción del diario Q’hubo en los sectores populares de Bogotá, específicamente en la localidad de Kennedy de esta ciudad. El estudio reconoce que las formas determinadas de interactuar con los medios están atadas a los contextos, las instituciones y los entornos culturales y sociales desde los que lector construye su realidad y se inserta en la sociedad actual. Por lo mismo, se nutre de estos elementos para entender los procesos de recepción a través de las formas cotidianas de consumo del diario Q’hubo frente al contexto mediático actual. Se sustenta que el Q’hubo se comunica con sus lectores combinando aspectos clásicos de la prensa popular y adaptando aspectos de diseño y lenguaje aportados por los nuevos medios. Lo que a su vez se relaciona con apropiaciones, usos y modos de leer de la audiencia, que reivindica interacciones tradicionales y desarrolla interacciones emergentes gracias a la convergencia de las tecnologías con la cultura letrada, oral y visual.

This article examines the subject matter of learning within the context of information society, through an inquiry concerning both the reforms in education adopted in Brazil in the last thirty years and their results. It provides a revision on the explanations of school failure based on assumptions of learning problems due to cognitive and linguistic deficits. From the guidelines related with written school forms as well as the constant cultural oppression accomplished inside the school, the article claims the necessity of changing the psychological and pedagogic views that, under the label of democratic practices, determine school institutions and its daily life, by means of instrumental relations with knowledge that disregard the reading practices which are congenial to popular culture.
Diversity and commonality in national identities: an exploratory analysis of cross-national patterns
Resumo:
Issues of boundary maintenance are implicit in all studies of national identity. By definition, national communities consist of those who are included but surrounded (literally or metaphorically) by those who are excluded. Most extant research on national identity explores criteria for national membership largely in terms of official or public definitions described, for example, in citizenship and immigration laws or in texts of popular culture. We know much less about how ordinary people in various nations reason about these issues. An analysis of cross-national (N = 23) survey data from the 1995 International Social Science Program reveals a core pattern in most of the countries studied. Respondents were asked how important various criteria were in being 'truly' a member of a particular nation. Exploratory factor analysis shows that these items cluster in terms of two underlying dimensions. Ascriptive/objectivist criteria relating to birth, religion and residence can be distinguished from civic/voluntarist criteria relating to subjective feelings of membership and belief in core institutions. In most nations the ascriptive/objectivist dimension of national identity was more prominent than the subjective civic/voluntarist dimension. Taken overall, these findings suggest an unanticipated homogeneity in the ways that citizens around the world think about national identity. To the extent that these dimensions also mirror the well-known distinction between ethnic and civic national identification, they suggest that the former remains robust despite globalization, mass migration and cultural pluralism. Throughout the world official definitions of national identification have tended to shift towards a civic model. Yet citizens remain remarkably traditional in outlook. A task for future research is to investigate the macrosociological forces that produce both commonality and difference in the core patterns we have identified.

Cultural studies has often been accused of maintaining too strong a focus on the contemporary and the immediate as a result of its primary interest in popular culture and the media. The role of history, such criticisms suggest, has been displaced by this contemporary emphasis. Nonetheless, much cultural studies work takes a principled stand on the necessity of historicising the products of its research. Consequently, it is worth asking, with British historian Carolyn Steedman--'why does cultural studies want history?' This article begins to answer that question through the discussion of some aspects of a specific research project within Australian cultural studies.

Este estudo foi elaborado a partir da proposta de fortalecimento das relações comunitárias entre a Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo e as comunidades jongueiras e caxambuzeiras. Destina-se a apresentar a pesquisa realizada em territórios negros sob a inspiração do Jongo e do Caxambu, reconhecidos como Patrimônio Imaterial do Brasil pelo Instituto do Patrimônio Histórico e Artístico Nacional (Iphan). A pesquisa foi desenvolvida no norte do Estado do Espírito Santo e tem como recurso analítico e conceitual estudos sobre etnicidade no campo da educação. Sua proposta é ampliar e constituir-se como base para a implementação da Lei nº. 10.639/2003, considerando a descrição das categorias religiosidade, territorialidade, memórias, cultura negra, cultura popular e tradição, com base nas narrativas dos sujeitos. Relaciona as práticas culturais do jongo e do caxambu como elementos importantes para a reconstrução da história do negro no Sudeste brasileiro. O tema de investigação foi construído sob a inspiração teórica dos estudos culturais referenciados em Stuart Hall (2008), Canclini (1997), Santos (2008, 2009), Certeau (2005) e na produção simbólica das interpretações sociais, das fronteiras étnicas para descrever as diferenças percebidas pelos sujeitos. Trabalhou-se basicamente propondo as múltiplas interpretações a partir do vivido. O estudo reforça a importância das africanidades na formação de professores e a discussão do Patrimônio Imaterial do Jongo como possibilidades de saberes-fazeres no campo do currículo escolar. Os caminhos da pesquisa partem de uma base etnográfica, conjugando a metodologia da história oral temática com a pesquisa participante e a pesquisa ação, interligando as memórias dos sujeitos, suas narrativas e vivências ao fazer pedagógico no cotidiano das comunidades. Ressalta a relação intercultural e territorial que identifica jongueiros e caxambuzeiros. Os resultados da pesquisa descrevem as condições dessas práticas, da visibilidade das políticas culturais, da produção das identidades jongueiras no norte do Estado do Espírito Santo, sob o ponto de vista dos sujeitos elencados.

This article aims to discuss the role humour plays in politics, particularly in a media environment overflowing with user-generated video. We start with a genealogy of political satire, from classical to Internet times, followed by a general description of “the Downfall meme,” a series of videos on YouTube featuring footage from the film Der Untergang and nonsensical subtitles. Amid video-games, celebrities, and the Internet itself, politicians and politics are the target of such twenty-first century caricatures. By analysing these videos we hope to elucidate how the manipulation of images is embedded in everyday practices and may be of political consequence, namely by deflating politicians' constructed media image. The realm of image, at the centre of the Internet's technological culture, is connected with decisive aspects of today's social structure of knowledge and play. It is timely to understand which part of “playing” is in fact an expressive practice with political significance.

Tendo presente a relação que o discurso estabelece com a sociedade como um todo, este artigo procura analisar o modo como a monarquia britânica representou o segundo casamento do Príncipe Carlos e o modo como os media construíram os relatos do acontecimento desde 10 de Fevereiro a 9 de Abril de 2005 relativamente a assuntos mais vastos, como sejam as relações de poder, as estruturas económicas dos jornais e a cultura popular. Foi dada particular relevância aos aspectos multifuncionais do discurso (por exemplo, as funções ideacional, interpessoal e textual), o que requer uma leitura contextualizada de um duplo processo de mediação: por um lado, a organização da cerimónia levada a cabo pelo Palácio de St. James e a sua subsequente estratégia para atingir um fechamento monológico e, por outro, as representações discursivas da imprensa britânica, abertas a uma polifonia de vozes e a vários enquadramentos discursivos.

Bearing in mind the relationship between discourse and society at large, this article addresses the way the British monarchy represented Charles’s second marriage and the way the media constructed their accounts in the period from 10 February (announcement) until 9 April 2005 (wedding) in relation to wider issues such as power relations, newspaper economic structures and popular culture. Particular attention is paid to the multifunctional features of discourse (i.e. its ideational, interpersonal and textual functions), which requires a contextualized reading of a dual process of mediation: on the one hand, the staging of the ceremony by St. James’s Palace and its strategy for attaining monologic closure and, on the other hand, discursive representations by the British press open to a polyphony of voices and discursive frames

Os colaboradores que realizam a sua atividade profissional, no setor das águas residuais, reconhecem que a sua atividade é perigosa. Esse conhecimento, foi adquirido pela experiência obtida ao longo dos anos, pelas várias formações e pelas notícias de acidentes, muitas vezes mortais, que têm acontecido na atividade. Muita das vezes, os colaboradores têm dificuldade em aceitar o risco, porque na realidade não existe um histórico conhecido do que se passa no interior das redes de drenagem de águas residuais e consideram que o risco é apenas teórico. Os portugueses são um Povo muito ligado à Cultura Popular,e são os ditados populares que melhor sintetiza as ideias expressas pelos trabalhador português “Ver para Crer, Como São Tomé” (SOUSA, Marcelo Rebelo de, Os Evangelhos de 2001, Lisboa, Bertrand Editora, 2001]. O objetivo principal com este trabalho, foi evidenciar que existem gases no interior das caixas de visita, mas principalmente, demostrar que seu aparecimento e respetiva concentração, é variável e que ocorre sem aviso prévio! Tornando assim, os trabalhos no interior das caixas de visita e das redes de drenagem de águas residuais domesticas, locais perigosos para quem opera no seu interior, sem a correta utilização dos equipamentos de proteção individual, (Epis e Epc). Sendo necessário, reforçar, a constante informação e formação para a utilização dos equipamentos de proteção individual e coletiva. Com o presente estágio, pretendeu-se iniciar um registo histórico de medições nas redes de drenagem de águas residuais domésticas. Com o resultado das medições que serão obtidas, pretende-se uma “Radiografia Fotográfica” ao interior das caixas de visitas das redes de drenagem de águas residuais. Com os resultados deste estudo, pretende-se contribuir de forma clara e objetiva, para os perigos iminentes que existem efetivamente, no interior das redes de saneamento, com a presença de altas concentrações de gás sulfídrico, nocivo para a vida humana!
