Alternância no uso dos modos indicativo e subjuntivo em orações subordinadas substantivas: uma comparação entre o português do Brasil e o francês do Canadá

The purpose of this work is to analyze the use of the indicative mood, instead of the subjunctive prescribed by the normative grammar, in complement clauses introduced by the conjunction que in Brazilian Portuguese. Contexts of use of the subjunctive according to grammatical prescription, and contexts of fluctuation on the use of that verbal mood were analyzed, in an attempt to investigate what interferes on the choice of the mood by the user of the language. This study is based on North-American Functional Linguistics theoretical perspective, oriented to analyzing language in use, in the light of the principles of grammaticalization and markedness. The results obtained support that the contexts that favor the indicative over the subjunctive are those composed by a complement clause functioning as a direct object the unmarked clause of all complement clauses and by a verb on the main sentence that belongs to the semantic field of low certainty, corresponding to the epistemic sub-mode the unmarked category of the deontic sub-mode. The results indicate that pragmatics and semantics factors influence the language user on the choice of the verbal mood. This research also presents comparative data on the use of the indicative mood in place of the subjunctive in Brazilian Portuguese and Canadian French, aiming to providing suggestions on language teaching

Descrição da oração sem sujeito em língua portuguesa: função, caracterização e uso

Oração sem sujeito é toda e qualquer oração destituída de SN sujeito, exceto nos casos em que tal SN encontra-se em elipse. Sua manifestação na língua pode se dar tanto em termos pessoais quanto impessoais. Estas incluem ocorrências essenciais, aqui chamadas de fenomenológicas e acidentais, denominadas impessoalizadas. Já aquelas se apresentam nos casos de indeterminação de agente por omissão do SN sujeito, tradicionalmente alcunhados casos de sujeito indeterminado e por meio do processo de ergativização em sua versão secundária, aquele que atua sobre verbos não causativos e tem sido porta de entrada à concretização de orações destituídas de SN sujeito no português brasileiro. Objetivamos neste trabalho a descrição de todas as estruturas apontadas, em termos de seus comportamentos morfossintáticos na língua, pois compreendemos que descrever a oração sem sujeito portuguesa é identificar contextos morfossintáticos de dispensa, em distintos graus, do SN sujeito. Para tanto, valemo-nos de um enfoque prototípico da língua, através do qual dialogamos com a natureza escalar de nosso objeto de estudo

Entre a Oração e o Trabalho: o estudo da Psicologia no Mosteiro de São Bento do Rio de Janeiro entre 1930 e 1950

Esta tese tem por objetivo apontar como a psicologia se torna uma ferramenta importante na formação do clero, especificamente, seu ensino no seminário de formação religiosa católica do Mosteiro de São Bento do Rio de Janeiro, no período de 1930 a 1950. Os religiosos católicos fizeram parte de muitos acontecimentos não só da história da Igreja, mas também da própria história do Brasil. Comandaram a educação nos primórdios da colonização, mantendo influência na organização educacional mesmo com a proclamação da República como estado laico. Falar da formação do homem/sacerdote decorre do entendimento de que os religiosos católicos foram um dos principais grupos disseminadores do saber psicológico em nossa pátria. O período de nosso recorte é marcado por transformações na política, na economia e na educação nacional que afetaram a todos, inclusive ao clero. Entre as mudanças no seminário de São Bento, encontramos a introdução da disciplina psicologia no currículo de formação dos monges, bem como a presença de uma crescente literatura psicológica introduzida principalmente através de comentadores religiosos, demonstrando que as relações entre Igreja e ciência assumem novo patamar no período estudado

A responsabilidade da sociedade diretora com os credores da sociedade subordinada

The scope of the present study encompasses the liability of the directing company for the obligations of the subordinated company. Whereas the concept of directing company is comprised in the broader context of groups of companies and, consequently, in the comprehensive framework of the relationships established among such entities, this study starts by defining the notion of groups of companies, distinguishing it from related figures. It, then, moves on to analyse the legal regime applicable to groups of companies in some legal systems deemed significant, notably the American, European and German systems. Finally, this paper scrutinizes the provisions of article 501 of the Portuguese Companies Code (“Códigodas Sociedades Comerciais”), in particular its systematics and peculiarities, so as to ascertain which is the liability scheme 2 applicable to the directing or dominant company for the obligations of the subordinates or dominated company. Pursuant to no. 1 of article 501of the CSC, the directing company’s liability for such obligations exists provided these commitments are born before, during and until such time the subordination contract is terminated. The liability of the directing or dominant company for the debts of the subordinated or dominated company ceases as of the moment when the relationship between those two entities no longer exists, with immediate effect.

Razão e Fé: estudo do grupo de oração como prática complementar na promoção à saúde

The World Health Organization (WHO) has given special attention to therapeutic procedures other than those practiced in conventional therapy, including homeopathy, phytotherapy, spiritual therapies and prayers, making possible the transition from a mere medicalizating model to a holistic view of the human being. This trend, earmarked in 1978 at the Alma-Ata Conference, questions the ability of technological and specialized medicine to solve the health problems of humankind. In Brazil, the onset of the Brazilian unified health system in 1988, introduced changes in the population s health care model where, within the scope of basic care, emphasis has been given to the Family Health Program since 1994. In this scenery, there is a broad area of complementary practices used in promoting health and preventing and treating diseases to support an understanding of the habits and beliefs underpinning popular practices. The purpose of this study was to analyze the perception users participating in the Peace and Balance group of the Family Health Unit of Nova Cidade, in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, started in 1999, have of the relationship between the experience of prayer and the changes that may have taken place in their lives after joining the group. It is a case study of descriptive nature and qualitative approach. The data were collected during focus group interviews between January and February 2007, using as tools a questionnaire to describe the research participants and a discussion outline. The theoretical support approached the following: religion and the evolution of thought; complementary health practices; and religion as a complementary health practice. Those interviewed reported, as results of such experience, a reduction in stress and depression, an increase in socialization and self-esteem, improved family interaction, comfort, safety, assurance, improved blood pressure levels and a decrease in the use of antihypertension medication and psychopharmacs. Although most professionals do not consider attention to the religious and spiritual aspects an effective therapeutical complement in health care, its understanding and practice may democratize knowledge and relationships, out of which they can learn how to make health production more effective, strengthening assurance and confidence, and developing and expanding soft technologies aimed at health care promotion and wholeness

Se inicia oração com pronome clítico? Atitudes linguísticas, na escola, em relação aos padrões brasileiros de colocação pronominal

Focusing on the empirical assessment issue, proposed by Language change theory (cf. cf. WEINREICH; LABOV; HERZOG, 2006; LABOV, [1972] 2008), this research assists to clarifying Portuguese teacher s attitudes in Natal- RN, regarding (a) to proclisis in three specific contexts: in the beginning of a simple/compound sentence (V1), after the subjects (SV), and proclisis after the secondary verb in complex verbal structures (V1V2); (b) to students who use such patterns in usage. Specific contexts were gathered thanks to their representing of the standard variety, as many studies have proven (Martins, 2012; Schei, 2003; Biazzoli, 2010, 2012). The research aims at: (i) verifying by means of a classroom assessment test, whether Portuguese teachers correct proclisis on referred contexts; (ii) identifying, via attitudinal tests what actions teachers take regarding to the usage of standards above mentioned, as well as students as users of those. Twenty Portuguese teachers, picked at random out of different of public schools in Natal-RN, responded to a classroom assessment test in addition to other two attitudinal ones. Results achieved point to a recurring high proclisis correction index of 50% in simple/compound sentences, even though such variety has been implemented to pronominal usage standards in Brazilian Portuguese. This setting of usage was generally assessed negatively, having no commonality between this assessment and the neutral one used by students. Unlike previous setting, the proclisis after subject did not receive any correction of the twenty teachers, what proves coherence with the positive evaluation both the varieties and the students attained. As for the second verb of complex verbal structures, proclisis correction went negative on presenting single results, despite their proximity, with correction indexes of 20% (infinite structures), 10% (present progressive structures) and 25% (participle structures). The assessment on these contexts of proclisis ranged between positive and neutral, also valid for the one students utilized. It means that proclisis in the beginning of simple/compound sentences are yet seemingly spotted in writing school scenario, much likely due to the negative evaluation, opposite to students . Later to subjects and earlier to secondary verbs in structures, proclisis appears to be acknowledged in writing school scenarios, which reflects on teachers assessment as compared to students who use proclisis in these contexts; being in general either positive or neutral

Senão... ao menos: da oração concessiva à locução conjuncional correlativa

A ligação de palavras da mesma função pode ser feita apenas por pausa (justaposição), por uma conjunção (conexão simples) ou por uma locução conjuncional correlativa (conexão enfática ou correlação). A correlação é o processo mais enfático de unir elementos de igual função sintática e pode ser aditiva (não só... mas também), alternativa (ou... ou), diferençativa (não tanto... como, senão... ao menos). SENÃO... AO MENOS apresenta o primeiro elemento como mais importante mas irreal, e o segundo como menos importante mas real.

Orações concessivas independentes à luz da gramática discursivo-funcional

This paper investigates, in light of the theory of Functional Discourse Grammar (HENGEVELD; MACKENZIE, 2008), the concessive clause that is not subordinated to other clauses, i.e., it has no semantic or syntactic relations with clauses before or after it, and which we call Independent Concessive. The aim is to describe the discursive properties and the semantic, morphosyntactic and prosodic structure of this type of clause, showing that its relevance is in the construction and organization of discourse. The results indicate that the Independent Concessive works in speech as a parenthesis which interrupts the discursive course and is then highlighted by a special prosodic contour, combined with the presence of Interactive Acts. It is therefore a Move, the highest layer of the Interpersonal Level, the level that relates to the pragmatic aspects of the grammar of a language. The universe of research used is the Iboruna corpus, a database that records a variety of Portuguese from the Northwest of São Paulo.

Da descrição ao ensino da oração adjetiva: a perspectiva dos livros didáticos de língua portuguesa

This paper aims at investigating the treatment given to relative clauses by elementary school text books, evidencing how the teaching of grammar is proposed in the teacher’s books. As a consequence, this study also intends to discuss important aspects to be considered as far as the teaching of relative clauses is concerned. In order to achieve that objective, five Portuguese text books (approved by the Programa Nacional do Livro Didático-2014) were selected so that the grammar teaching proposals could be analyzed in relation to the definition and to the distinguishing criteria between defining and non-defining relative clauses. Results show that the teaching of relative clauses (as proposed by the teacher’s books) still reflects the postulates of the traditional grammar, based on activities of identification and classification of morphosyntactic units, ignoring the pragmatic and prosodic aspects.
