'It is virtue and goodness only, that make the true beauty' : understanding female beauty in the eighteenth century

Aske, Katherine January 2015 (has links)
This thesis addresses how female beauty was understood in the eighteenth century and aims to build on and expand the existing scholarship from Robert Jones, Tita Chico, Tassie Gwilliam, G. J. Barker-Benfield and Naomi Baker, amongst others. Each of these scholars has discussed various areas of beauty, including taste, cosmetics, sensibility, gender and, for Baker, the opposite to beauty, ugliness. Building on these areas of study, this thesis will address the concept of beauty in both its physical and moral sense. That is, the connection of the beautiful body with the ideas or associations it has come to signify. For example, the beautiful female body usually informs readings of virtue, morality, goodness, but, in some cases, beauty can be read as wantonness, immorality and foolishness. In order to navigate these contradictory associations, the thesis has been split into category chapters and divided into two parts. The first part will examine beauty's physiognomic origins, its role in aesthetic philosophy, and its artistic expression. In the second part, with a more literary focus, the concept of beauty will be discussed in connection to its moral associations, the effects of cosmetics and health, and how concerns for reading the body are considered in the mid-century's moral novels. The evidence for the thesis will include various types of literature, including scientific and artistic treatises, fairytales, letters, advertisements, recipe books, cosmetic manuals, poetry and prose fiction. Although the scope of this thesis is wide reaching, the relationship between the body and mind, that is, the legibility of the inner qualities on the external signs of the body, remains very much at its centre. These numerous and varying examples have been chosen to demonstrate how influential this connection really was in the period, and how it informs the understanding of female beauty in the eighteenth-century.

Pacientes em processo de coma : alterações da vida / Patients in coma's process: life changes

Ana Claudia Souza Vazquez Aboud 31 March 2000 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Partindo da premissa de que o paciente em coma é um sujeito, e que o seu processo comatoso é uma alteração do estado de vida, em contraposição ao imaginário social que lhe atribui estereótipos de sono próximo a morte, inércia, suspensão de sua vida mental e impotência. Esta dissertação tem como objetivo demonstrar que o coma é demarcado no limite entre o caos e o desejo na medida em que cada paciente vivencia o processo comatoso de forma singular e demarcado conforme sua experiência subjetiva, implementando movimentos em direção a processos de vida ou de morte. Para tanto foram utilizados análise de casos clínicos, entrevistas com médicos, familiares e pacientes que saíram do coma, além de pesquisa bibliográfica, utilizando a psicanálise como arcabouço teórico que fundamenta as inferências e conclusões propostas nesta dissertação. / Assuming that the comatose patient is a human been, and that his comatose process is an altered state of life, in contrast to the picture that gives you social stereotypes sleep near death, inertia, suspension of your mental life and impotence. This dissertation aims to demonstrate that the coma is demarcated the border between chaos and desire in that each patient experiences the process of natural Comatose shape and marked according to their subjective experience, moves toward implementing processes of life or death . For this analysis of clinical cases, interviews with doctors, patients and family members who came out of the coma were used in addition to literature, using psychoanalysis as a theoretical framework that underlies the inferences and conclusions proposed in this dissertation.

Os dados obtidos foram analisados com métodos qualitativos explicitados no decorrer da análise. Os resultados obtidos confirmaram a expectativa de que os dançarinos podem ser beneficiados pelo Método Feldenkrais de Educação Somática / Abstract: The present study takes as its starting point the idea that the Feldenkrais Method of Somatic Education can be an interesting partner in the training and development of dancers of different techniques and styles.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Fabiana Ribeiro Monteiro.pdf: 1412492 bytes, checksum: 3db6071e387b8eaab9e2ed2127cadd0d (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-08-04 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / Thinking about the problematization of the working subject requires questioning about the forms that social existence can take. This premise leads us to analyze the relations between politics and corporeity, since the fabrication of a body is a way of experiencing time, and politics is not simply a question of a circuit of goods and riches, ways of regulating inequalities socioeconomic variables. The body is the instrument through which our struggles, our risks, our affective implication in the community pass. By serving as a kind of colonizing catch and investing in individual neoliberalist ownership, historical, economic, cultural, linguistic, and other aspects that are (re) produced in ways of life are updated. These experiences can be perpetuated in a distance between the bodies or in the production of encounters as spaces of rupture to the current system. Here we were interested in following another experience of knowledge, possible and real in the process of the production of subjectivity. Stagnating it means coagulating fissures, accidents, mutations, and therefore, committing ourselves to the eternal search for the best model, pointing guilty, judging procedures, speaking on behalf of others, denouncing "irregularities", tutelary the object / Pensar a problematização do sujeito trabalhador requer questionar sobre as formas que a existência social pode tomar. Tal premissa leva a analisar as relações entre política e corporeidade pois, a fabricação de um corpo é uma maneira de experimentar o tempo, e a política, não é, simplesmente, uma questão sobre um circuito de bens e riquezas, modos de regulação das desigualdades socioeconômicas. O corpo é o instrumento pelo qual se passam nossas lutas, nossos riscos, nossa implicação afetiva na coletividade. Servindo à uma espécie de captura colonizadora e ao investimento na propriedade individual neoliberalista, nele se atualizam aspectos históricos, econômicos, culturais, linguísticos, dentre outros, que se (re) produzem em modos de vida. Essas experiências podem perpetuar-se num distanciamento entre os corpos ou na produção de encontros como espaços de ruptura ao sistema vigente. Aqui nos interessou acompanhar uma experiência outra do conhecimento, possível e real no processo da produção da subjetividade. Estancá-la significa coagular as fissuras, os acidentes, as mutações, e por conseguinte, nos comprometer com a eterna busca pelo melhor modelo, apontar culpados, julgar procedimentos, falar em nome dos outros, denunciar “irregularidades”, tutelar o objeto

G. Jung. Além disso, foi também constatado que tanto o método de trabalho corporal como a própria vivência do autor foram tangidas por ensinamentos da sabedoria perene. Para que esse método pudesse ser inserido num contexto histórico, partimos da descrição das trajetórias históricas da filosofia, da medicina, da psicologia e do desenvolvimento dos métodos e técnicas corporais, passando pela descrição de cada um deles até chegarmos à atualidade, no afã de cumprirmos nosso objetivo. / This dissertation is the result of a research which was carried out based on questionaires and interviews. This is mainly at the record of the way followed by Pethö Sándor over his life to draw up the method of body therapy. This method works the imbrication of Neurology, Anatomy and the deep Psycology by C. G. Jung. The available elements used to record the building-up of this method are presented in the proof that both, the body therapy and Sándorþs own life experience were touched by the teaching of ageless wisdom. For this method could be included in a historical context, this work was started by the description of the historic ways of Phylosophy, Medicine, Psychology and also the historical development of both, physical methods and technics. Then, each one was described from the beginning to the present time, with the strong will to reach the purpose of this work.
