« L'esthétique du chant dans la piété calviniste aux premiers temps de la Réforme (1536-1545) »

Contrairement aux idées reçues, l'esthétique assume bien une fonction dans les formes rituelles adoptées par les Eglises issues de la Réforme calviniste. Mais il revient moins à l'image, considérée avant tout comme une source de distraction, qu'à la musique de porter cette dimension dans la piété réformée. Retraçant la formation de la pensée calvinienne sur la question des rapports entre culte et musique entre 1536 et 1543, cette étude montre comment le théologien en vient durant ces années à considérer que le chant des psaumes permet de concilier dans la dévotion, un processus cognitif, guidé par le sens des paroles, et un mouvement affectif, suscité par la mélodie. C'est, aux yeux de Calvin, de la jonction de ces deux dynamiques que naît l'élévation spirituelle à laquelle le culte doit conduire. Notwithstanding common belief, aesthetics had an important function in ritual forms implemented by Reformed Calvinist Churches. The impact of aesthetics on reformed piety rested less on images, considered to be a source of distraction, than on music. By reconsidering the evolution of Calvin's thoughts on the relationship between music and religious services between 1536 and 1543, this study reveals how Calvin came to consider that by singing the psalms, Christians could conciliate in prayer a cognitive process which was to be guided by both the meaning of the words and the emotions triggered by the tune. For Calvin, the spiritual elevation to which religious services should lead was to emerge from the conjunction of these two impetuses.

La Réforme des soins en santé mentale en Belgique: analyse d'un modéle

RESUMO: O relatório anual de 2001 da Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), anunciou o interesse social dos problemas crescentes em matéria de saúde mental e relativo à necessidade urgente de uma extensão, como também, para uma melhor organização da oferta de tratamento. Sob proposta da Bélgica, esta observação foi traduzida em uma resolução « Mental health :responding to the call for action » (déclaração de intenção do 18 de maio de 2002). Nós notamos que certos países, como os Estados Unidos ou a Grã Bretanha transformam sistematicamente o tratamento residencial em um tratamento mais dirigido para a comunidade. Eles também se concentram na descoberta prematura dos problemas psiquiátricos. Este fenômeno de désinstitutionalisação obteve resultados concretos e traz um ganho certo, tanto para os atores do campo da saúde mental, como também para os candidatos a um tratamento. O tratamento das pessoas dentro do seu meio de vida é muito claramente reconhecido. As evoluções que marcaram os tratamentos em saúde mental na Bélgica durante estes utimos 40 anos mostram que vários paços importantes já foram feitos. A reforma tem como objetivo converter a oferta hospitalar e montar tratamentos dirigidos para e dentro da comunidade pela criação de equipas móveis que se inscrevem no dispositivo comunitário, historicamente muito activo bem que sub-financiado. A reorganização dos sistemas de tratamento está baseada na criação de redes, para construir um dispositivo flexível e contínuo que considera as necessidades dos pacientes. Esta reforma é, ao mesmo tempo, ambiciosa e complexa,. É uma visão nova, uma mudança de cultura, não só, para todos os atores da saúde mental, mas também para os pacientes e suas famílias. A reforma está baseada numa visão global e integrada que associa no mesmo movimento todas as autoridades competentes relativamente a saúde que elas sejam federais, regionais ou comunitárias.-----------ABSTRACT: The World Health Organization’s (WHO) annual report of 2001 identified a social interest for the increasing problems related to mental health and the urgent need of an extension and a better organization of mental health care. On a proposal of Belgium this statement was transformed into a resolution « Mental health: responding to the call for action» (Declaration of Intent, May 18th, 2002). Some countries such as the USA or the UK systematically dismantled in-patient residential care in favor of more community-based care and a focus on early detection of psychiatric problems. This de -institutionalization has clearly and concretely paid off and the value of bringing mental health care to claimants and treating them in their own residence was acknowledged. In Belgium, the evolutions which have shaped mental health care in the last forty years indicate that a number of important steps are already taken. The Reform aims to convert the supply of hospital care into community-based mental health care services through the creation of mobile teams which offer services in everyday life of the user. These teams take place in the community, historically highly active howbeit underfunded. The reorganization of health care system relies upon the creation of networks in order to build a flexible and continuous device which take into account user’s needs. This Reform can be seen as both ambitious and complex. It is a completely new vision, a major cultural shift for all mental health care stakeholders, but also for users and their relatives. The Reform is based on a global and integrated approach which links I, a same movement all relevant health authorities whether they be federal, regional or community. de-institutionalization – community mental health – recovery - users and families involvement - networking.

Le chant comme imaginaire de la lecture empathique

Par son étymologie, le mot « lyrique » renvoie à la musique et au chant, en étant ainsi assimilé à des pratiques antiques. Si la tradition littéraire française a effectivement engagé ce type de productions au moyen âge, le chant semble avoir disparu de la communication lyrique depuis le XVe siècle. Toutefois, l'imaginaire de la lyre perdure encore sous diverses formes.Ce livre est issu du colloque international « Chant et écritures lyriques » organisé à l'université de Lausanne les 9-10 juin 2006. L'association du chant et des écritures lyriques est encore trop souvent considérée aujourd'hui comme une évidence ou un tabou, sans qu'il soit tenu compte de la diversité des théorisations et des pratiques. Les études de nombreux spécialistes rassemblées dans ce volume permettent des approches nouvelles sur les liens entre voix, musique et poésie en lien, imaginaire ou effectif, avec des formes de communication et de réception. Il est dès lors possible d'avoir une vue d'ensemble historique et critique sur une association qui semble aussi problématique que nécessaire en littérature.

Dermatologie esthétique et correctrice: applications cliniques et rôle social [Esthetic and corrective dermatology: clinical applications and social role].

Skin diseases may have severe aesthetic and psychological repercussions leading sometimes to discriminations and social isolation. Dermatologists have contributed to the development of many cosmetic procedures: peelings, botulinum toxin or hyaluronic acid injections, lasers, blepharoplasty, facelift, etc. Many of these treatments have interesting clinical applications and may help numerous patients with skin diseases to return to a normal social life.
