Desire, Resentment and Reprisal: Revisiting the Emotions of Myth in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby

This article aims to reassess F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic The Great Gatsby (1925), taking into consideration the myth-critical hypotheses of philosopher René Girard. Specifically, this essay will analyse the concepts of mimetic desire, resentment and reprisal violence as emotional components of myth, paying close attention to how the reinterpreted mythical pattern of the novel influences the depiction of such emotions as social traits of corruption. Finally, this article will challenge interpretations that have regarded Gatsby as a successful scapegoat-figure, examining instead how the mythical meanings and structures of the text stage an emotional crisis of frustrated desire and antagonism that ultimately offers no hope of communal restoration.

H.A.S. Dearborn letter, May 29, 1812

H.A.S. (Henry Alexander Scammell) Dearborn (1783-1851) was the son of Henry Dearborn, the American politician and veteran of the Revolutionary War and War of 1812. In the War of 1812, H.A.S Dearborn served as Brigadier General of the volunteer forces, responsible for the defence of Boston Harbour. From 1812-1829 he was collector of customs in Boston, from 1831-1833 he served as a representative from Massachusetts in the United States Congress, was adjutant general of Massachusetts from 1834-1843 and mayor of Roxbury from 1847-1851. Letter transcription: Dear Sir, My success in the line of recruiting has exceeded my most sanguine expectations. I have enlisted 24 1st Lt. 30—my 2nd Lt. 13, and my Ensign 9—Total 76. All very [ablebodied] men. In all probability my company will be full before the last day of June. I shall be in Boston on the 10th of June. I have not yet had the pleasure to hear of the arrival of your father at Boston. Please to offer my respects to your family, and to all my friends in the [office]. In haste, Yours, A.M. Clary.

Análisis del modelo de Internacionalización de e-Tech Simulation según la teoría de redes

La teoría de redes de Johanson y Mattson (1988) explica como las pequeñas empresas, también conocidas como PyMes, utilizan las redes de negocio para desarrollar sus procesos de internacionalización. Es así que a través de las redes pueden superar sus limitaciones de tamaño para encontrar cierto tipo de fluidez y dinamismo en su gestión, con el fin de aprovechar los beneficios de la internacionalización. A partir del desarrollo y fortalecimiento de las relaciones dentro de la red la organización puede posicionarse en una instancia competitiva cada vez más fuerte (Jarillo, 1988). Según Forsgren y Johanson (1992), para los gerentes es importante coordinar la interacción entre los diferentes actores de la red, ya que a través de estas su posición dentro de la red mejora y así mismo el flujo de recursos será mayor. El propósito de este trabajo es analizar el modelo de internacionalización según la teoría de redes, desde una perspectiva cultural, de e-Tech Simulation una PyME “Born to be global” norteamericana. Esta empresa ha minimizado su riesgo de internacionalización, a través del desarrollo de acuerdos entre los diferentes actores. Al mejorar su posición dentro de la red, es decir al fortalecer aún más los lazos existentes y crear nuevas relaciones, la empresa ha obtenido mayores beneficios de la misma y ha logrado ser aún más flexible con sus clientes. Es por esto que a partir de este análisis se planteó una serie de recomendaciones para mejorar los procesos de negociación dentro de la red, bajo un contexto cultural. De igual forma se evidencio la importancia del papel del emprendimiento del gerente en los procesos de internacionalización, así como su habilidad para mezclar los recursos obtenidos de diferentes mercados internacionales para satisfacer las necesidades de los clientes.

Bases para o espírito: Ferreira Penna, ciência e educação na Província do Grão- Pará (1866 – 1891)

As contribuições de Domingos Soares Ferreira Penna (1818-1888) à ciência realizada na província do Grão-Pará na segunda metade do século XIX são continuamente referidas em trabalhos sobre a fundação do Museu Paraense de História Natural e Etnografia em 1866, uma vez que o político mineiro fora seu idealizador e primeiro diretor. Contudo, a participação de Ferreira Penna na sociedade paraense da época se estendeu à instrução pública, tema de urgência no discurso das autoridades provinciais. É no sentido de se buscar a consonância deste personagem com as discussões de seu tempo sobre ciência e educação que este trabalho se desenvolve. Buscamos escritos da autoria de Penna, em especial as páginas dedicadas à instrução pública, além de discursos governamentais e pensamentos de outros autores sobre o tema. Partimos de um personagem singular por acreditarmos que pode ser procedimento inicial para compreendermos o contexto social no qual se insere. Seus textos foram analisados com base em elementos da análise de conteúdo, que nos permitiram organizar palavras e expressões em Unidades de Contexto e selecionar quais seriam mais apropriadas para a análise das fontes. A análise nos conduziu à idéia de que, para Ferreira Penna, a instrução teria como uma de suas prioridades a iluminação intelectual dos indivíduos como um todo, em especial os das camadas populares. Esta necessidade acompanhava a proposta da consolidação de uma identidade nacional, cuja inexistência era sentida por políticos e intelectuais. Ainda nesse projeto, o conhecimento dos recursos naturais através das ciências da natureza seria indispensável à luz da inteligência que se buscava incutir nos jovens através da instrução. Neste ponto, ciência e educação se convergem, por serem investimentos utilitários para um propósito mais amplo. O pensamento de Penna se adere ao de vários pensadores da época, em especial no que diz respeito à liberdade de ensino e a uma possível defesa do regime republicano em detrimento do regime monárquico, findo em 1889. Apesar das idéias parecerem adiantadas para sua época, o conservadorismo do pensamento de Ferreira Penna em alguns pontos nos ajuda a compreender a dimensão na qual mudanças para a instrução eram pensadas, de modo que não comprometessem a organização social vigente.

Effects of Bologna, the economic crisis and the immigration in enrollment at the UPM

Over the past 20 years, the economic landscape has changed dramatically in Spain, undergoing a growth explosion and a subsequent decline which has led to the current economic crisis. This growth has led to heavy immigration from both developed and developing countries, which provided skilled and unskilled labour. This article aims to analyze the impact of immigrant students at the Polytechnic University of Madrid, pondering the effect that the economic crisis is having and will have on this group, and evaluating the implementation of new plans of Bologna. We analyze the enrolment at the UPM and particularize to the Civil Engineering school (previous EUITOP), crossing with the effect of the economic crisis on foreign students. The exponential increase of foreign students, most of them from Latin American and born in Spain, and students of European countries that have started to register considerably from 2002 and 2003, lead us to consider a renewal in certain areas of learning, and to exploit the possibility of interaction with other countries so successful through the acquisition of transversal skills, as well as to guide and improve, support and integrate these groups at our university Keywords: knowledge, learning, Bologna, academic record
