[pt] Clement Greenberg anunciara há meio século que o frio hedonismo de Matisse e sua exclusão de tudo exceto a sensação concreta e imediata seria no futuro melhor compreendida como o mais profundo estado de ânimo da primeira metade do século XX. Este trabalho investiga as consequências desse hedonismo na aparência pictórica, na dupla função cartesiano-sensível, ou melhor, objetiva e subjetiva da linha elaborada por Matisse. A partir de sua manipulação sensível dos conceitos de linear e pictórico - recapitulando Wolfflin, linha e cor deixam de assumir um caráter antitético, vivem em comunhão, na condensação pela equivalência, não pela diferença, das qualidades sensíveis e intelectivas da obra. Matisse mantém os conceitos em estado de latência sensível, gerando uma espécie de percepção funâmbula de sua arte, a configurar-se como o grande vórtice da sensibilidade moderna. / [en] Clement Greenberg once said that Matisse s cold hedonism and ruthless exclusion of everything but the concrete, immediate sensation will be better understood as the most profound mood of the first half of the twentieth century. The purpose of this essay is to investigate the consequences of this hedonism in the pictorial image, for to reveal how the dual sensible / intellective, objective and subjective function of the line was elaborated by Matisse. From his sentient manipulation of the pictorial and linear concepts – recapitulating Heinrich Wolfflin - color and line no longer assume an anthitetical position in the pictorial image, by coexisting through equivalence, not by contrast. By maintaining the concepts in sentient latency, Matisse has generated a sort of funambulist perception of art that had become the great vortex of modern sensibility.

The first step of the program is to input the statistical information concerning the relations of th· database. This information is stored in the log file and the file matrix data structures. Next, the query itself is read and stored in an array called the query matrix. The program examines the various fields of this matrix and decides which relations in the database are necessary to answer the query. For these relations it determines those attributes which should be eliminated and those which should be preserved for further processing. The key attributes are identified and are projected along with the other attributes. After the initial projection is completed the sizes of the new temporary relations are evaluated and stored in the appropriate fields of the file matrix structure. The program then examines that part of the query which contains the various restrictions on the attributes. The values of the attributes are sorted and those values which do not match the restrictions are eliminated from the log file. Again, the sizes of the new relations are estimated according to the method described by Egyhazy et al. [6]. A second projection is performed to eliminate attributes which were required by the selection phase but are not part of the final answer to the query. The remaining relations are those relations which need to be joined to form a relation with the required information. In order to decide upon which relations to join, a special table, the join matrix, is created. This table contains pairs of relations which have common attributes and common values and therefore are joinable. The LP algorithm is used to determine the least expensive join out of all the possible joins. This process is repeated until all of the relations are joined to form a single relation which answers the query. As in the case of projection and selection the size of the temporary relations after each join is estimated. As a last step, we remove the key attributes which helped in joining the files but are not part of the answer to the query. / Master of Engineering

Cette étude porte sur la représentation de la déformation du corps humain, afin de défendre l’idée que ces exemples de corps déformés ont fini par engendrer de nouvelles recherches et des transgressions artistiques qui caractérisent le XIXe siècle français. Les œuvres de Hugo et de Ingres ont été choisies en raison de la richesse symbolique qu'y acquiert la déformation du corps humain, au confluent de plusieurs traditions mythologiques. Pour l’étude des corps déformés et de leur rôle dans la cosmogonie hugolienne, nous nous servirons d’une cosmogonie analogue : celle de Dante Alighieri qui a pu nourrir l’imaginaire hugolien auquel nous ajoutons le labyrinthe existentiel. Méthodologiquement, cette analyse sera faite à partir de la lecture de l’espace proposée par Greimas. Les axes orthogonaux y sont marqués par les personnages en établissant des emplacements spécifiques qui indiquent un langage à déchiffrer. Dans l’œuvre d’Ingres, notre but sera de mettre en relief la déformation du corps en tant que travail esthétique pour la révélation de la beauté plastique. La déformation anatomique caractérise déjà ses premiers personnages masculins et marque davantage ses figures féminines que nous étudierons plus en détail. Pour affiner cette démarche nous avons établi certaines relations avec d’autres peintres tels que son maître David, ou bien avec des sculpteurs comme son ami Lorenzo Bartolini, James Pradier et des écrivains comme Théophile Gautier et Hugo. Cette recherche s’appuiera sur plusieurs supports théoriques, indispensables pour s’orienter dans cet univers riche de références à l’Antique, au mythologique, au religieux, au sacré, au politique, au social, à l’artistique, au fantastique et au fantasmagorique. C’est pourquoi Phidias, Vitruve, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Jorge Luis Borges, Mircea Eliade, Claude Lévi-Strauss, Michel Foucault, Umberto Eco entre autres sont évoqués pour aider à la compréhension de notre étude. / This study focuses on the representation of the deformation of the human body, arguing that these examples of physical deformity have eventually engendered new research and artistic transgressions that characterise nineteenth century France.The works of Hugo and Ingres are focused upon on account of the symbolic richness derived from them with regard to the deformation of the human body, and the confluence of several mythological traditions. For the study of deformed bodies and their role in Hugo's cosmogony, we will use a similar analogous cosmogony: that of Dante Alighieri, which was able to feed the Hugolian imagination and to which we add the existential labyrinth. Methodologically, this analysis will be made by reading the space proposed by Greimas. Orthogonal axes are marked by characters in establishing specific locations that indicate a language to decipher. Regarding the work of Ingres, our goal is to highlight the deformation of the body as a work of aesthetics for the revelation of plastic beauty. Anatomical deformation already characterises his first masculine characters and mark still further his female figures which we have studied in more detail. To refine this approach we have established some relationships with other painters such as David, Ingres' Master, and with his friends the sculptors Lorenzo Bartolini, James Pradier and also with writers such as Théophile Gautier and Hugo. This research is based on several theoretical sources, they are essential to orient this rich universe of references to the Antique, the mythological, the religious, the sacred, the political, the social, the arts, and fantasy. This is why Phidias, Vitruvius, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Jorge Luis Borges, Mircea Eliade, Lévi-Strauss, Michel Foucault, Umberto Eco among others are also discussed to help the understanding of our study.

Thesis advisor: Jeffery Howe / The Orient has been a mythical, looming presence since the foundation of Islam in the 7th century. It has always been the “Other” that Edward Said wrote about in his 1979 book Orientalism. The gulf of misunderstanding between the myth and the reality of the Near East still exists today in the 21st century. Napoleon's invasion of Egypt in 1798 and the subsequent colonization of the Near East is perhaps the defining moment in the Western perception of the Near East. At the beginning of modern colonization, Napoleon and his companions arrived in the Near East convinced of their own superiority and authority; they were Orientalists. The supposed superiority of Europeans justified the colonization of Islamic lands. Said never specifically wrote about art; however, his theories on colonialism and Orientalism still apply. Linda Nochlin first made use of them in her article “The Imaginary Orient” from 1983. Artists such as Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, Eugène Delacroix and Jean-Léon Gérôme demonstrate Said's idea of representing the Islamic “Other” as a culturally inferior and backward people, especially in their portrayal of women. The development of photography in the late 19th century added another dimension to this view of the Orient, with its seemingly objective viewpoint. / Thesis (BA) — Boston College, 2004. / Submitted to: Boston College.
