O resgate do homem: um caminho através da dança

O homem contemporâneo pode ser considerado uma máquina que funciona automaticamente e devido a isso, se torna escravo de seu automatismo que controla sua personalidade, seus pensamentos e sentimentos. Assim como as máquinas, ele apresenta centros de força: o mental, o emocional e o fisiológico-sexual. O homem contemporâneo tem dificuldade de controlar esses centros, por isso em cada situação de sua vida apresenta facetas de sua personalidade, alguns tipos de sentimentos e pensamentos. Os Movimentos Gurdjieffianos se assemelham a uma dança onde os movimentos são incomuns e exigem muita atenção. Esses movimentos fazem parte da filosofia de Gurdjieff em sua busca por um homem verdadeiro. Trata-se de encontrar uma forma de reequilíbrio do corpo-menteemoções, a harmonização dos centros de força para a formação de um homem consciente e responsável. Esse trabalho, então, tem como objetivo apresentar uma diferente visão da dança. Por meio de uma revisão de literatura acerca da filosofia de Gurdjieff e da Dança de um modo geral foi possível concluir que os Movimentos Gurdjieffianos representam sim uma diferente visão da Dança, já que não são uma forma de expressão corporal e despertam os praticantes a um nível de atenção sobre si elevado permitindo o autoconhecimento e, conseqüentemente, melhorando o elo de comunicação entre o homem e o mundo.

The Re-Enchantment of Surrealism: Remedios Varo’s Visionary Artists

The visionary prowess of the artist was established, in both the visual and verbal arts, by the Symbolists in Fin de siècle France. This article asserts a continuity between the avowed spiritual dimension of their work and the visionary power of surrealist art asserted—despite strong resistance from the centre—by a group of renegade surrealists in the 1920s and beyond. To do so, it explores the artists that Spanish-born Mexican painter Remedios Varo (1908 – 1963) depicts in her work, demonstrating how they might be better understood when analysed in relation to Georges Ivanovich Gurdjieff’s (1866?-1949) esoteric aesthetics. In doing so, it reveals a neglected, postsecular trajectory in the history of surrealism.

Ivanov-mistik : Okkul'tnye motivy v poèzii i proze Vjačeslava Ivanova (1907-1919)

The subject of this work is the mysticism of Russian poet, critic and philosopher Vjacheslav Ivanov (1866-1949). The approach adopted involves the textual and discourse analysis and findings of the history of ideas. The subject has been considered important because of Ivanov's visions of his dead wife, writer Lydia Zinovieva-Annibal, which were combined with audible messages ("automatic writings"). Several automatic writings and descriptions of the visions from Ivanov's archive collections in St.Petersburg and Moscow are presented in this work. Right after the beginning of his hallucinations in the autumn of 1907, Ivanov was totally captivated by the theosophical ideas of Anna Mintslova, the background figure for this work. Anna Mintslova, a disciple of Rudolf Steiner's Esoteric School, offered Ivanov the theosophical concept of initiation to interpret paranormal phenomena in his intimate life. The work is divided into three main chapters, an introduction and aconclusion. The first chapter is called The Mystical Person: Anthropology of Ivanov and describes the role of the inner "Higher Self" in Ivanov's views on the nature of human consciousness. The political implications of the concepts, "mystical anarchism" and "sobornost" (religious unity) are also examined. The acquaintance and contacts with Anna Mintslova during 1906-1907 gave a framework to Ivanov's search for an organic society and personal religious experience. The second part, Mystics of Initiation and Visionary Aesthetics describes the influence of the initiation concept on Ivanov's aesthetic views (mainly "realistic symbolism"). On the other hand, some connections between the imagery of his visions and symbols in his verses of that period are established. Since Mintslova represented the ideas of Rudolf Steiner in Russia, several symbols shared by Steiner and Ivanov ("rose", "rose and cross") have been another subject of investigation. The preference for strict verse form in the lyrics of Ivanov's visionary period is interpreted as an attempt to place his own poetic creation within two traditions, a mystical and literary one. The third part of this work, Mystics of Hope and Terror, examines Ivanov's conception of Russia in connection with Mintslova's ideas of occult danger from the East. Ivanov's view of the "Russian idea" and his nationalistic idea during World War I are considered as a representation of the fear of the danger. Ivanov's interpretation of the October revolution is influenced by the theosophical concept of the "keeper of the threshold" which occurs in the context of the discourse of occult danger.

Los clásicos de la gerencia

Este texto está dirigido a quienes desean iniciarse en los estudios de gerencia y a aquellos interesados por los orígenes de esta joven disciplina que inunda los campos empresarial, académico y social. Este texto compila los escritos que dieron origen a la gerencia moderna. Cada uno de sus autores representa diversas corrientes del pensamiento administrativo generador del discurso gerencial que, a manera de retóricas como sostienen Kunda y Barley, constituyen la dinámica evolutiva del discurso de la productividad en las organizaciones y en su estudio del contexto norteamericano de finales del siglo XIX, hasta la entrada de la década de los noventa, en donde sólo reseñan a Robert Owen, Frederick Winslow Taylor, George Elton Mayo, Peter Drucker y E. Deming. Como aporte, en este trabajo se reseñan el concepto fayolista de la organización y el weberiano de burocracia, para complementar la evolución del saber gerencial en su dimensión clásica y para demostrar que la gerencia, como saber disciplinar, se ha originado también en estas prácticas empresariales del contexto europeo. Este libro es un pretexto para comprender la necesidad de ir a la fuente como camino para la contextualización pertinente de la investigación y la formación. No se trata de resúmenes, sino de esquemas sintéticos de lo que, a juicio del autor, son los siete clásicos de la gerencia; no se refiere al pensamiento estratégico, aunque sí guarda una profunda relación con esta racionalidad, dado que la administración es gerencia y dirección como funciones de servicio a la perdurabilidad de las organizaciones.
