L’objectif de ce mémoire est d’analyser une praxis, la mienne, au moyen des techniques de la praxéologie, en tentant ainsi de réaffirmer le bien-fondé de mon travail d’auteure au service de la foi. En effet, la rédaction de Saffia, femme de Smyrne, débutée après une quinzaine d’années de vie professionnelle active en tant qu’écrivaine, me laisse croire que ce roman historique et sa présentation sont des outils adaptés pour transmettre l’Évangile. Ma recherche débute par une présentation générale de l’œuvre de fiction Saffia, femme de Smyrne ainsi que des conférences qui en découlent. Je mettrai ensuite en mots l’observation du discours secondaire, composé des appréciations ou des impressions de lecteurs. Mon interprétation ou mon hypothèse surgiront de ma problématisation par la question praxéologique Pourquoi est-ce que je fais ce que je fais et seront formulées au moyen des cinq fonctions d’élaboration. La partie ayant trait à la transmission de l’Évangile sera évaluée par des lectures en théologie, qui mettent en exergue les études d’auteurs : Jean-Guy Nadeau, Pierre Vadeboncœur, et Norbert Greinacher tandis que celle référant aux sciences humaines sera étudiée au moyen des œuvres de spécialistes Gérard Delteil, Régis Debray, Félix Moser et Antoine Compagnon. Soutenue par ces différentes études, je serai en mesure de mieux définir ce que la fiction en général peut apporter à la transmission de l’Évangile en m’appuyant sur l’étude de la fiction en théologie faite par des auteurs comme Paul Ricœur et Joseph Moingt. Je conclurai par une réflexion sur le mode de transmission de Saffia, femme de Smyrne et, je l’espère, par une explication de la raison pour laquelle je continuerai à utiliser la fiction pour transmettre l’Évangile. Une courte nouvelle me permettra d’appliquer mon étude et ainsi d’ouvrir ma réflexion dans une praxis. / The objective of this dissertation is to analyze a praxis, mine, using praxeology techniques, in an attempt at reaffirming the validity of my work as an author serving faith. As a matter of fact, the writing of Saffia, femme de Smyrne, which started after about fifteen years of an active professional life as a writer, lead me to believe that this historical novel and its presentation are tools adapted for the transmission of the Gospel. My research begins with a general presentation of the work of fiction, Saffia, femme de Smyrne, as well as the ensuing conferences. I then put into words the observation of the secondary discourse composed of readers’ opinions or impressions. My interpretation and/or hypothesis arise from my problematisation defined by the praxeological question Why do I do what I do and through the five development functions. The part relating to the transmission of the Gospel is evaluated through readings in theology which highlight the studies of authors such as Jean-Guy Nadeau, Pierre Vadeboncœur, and Norbert Greinacher, while that referring to the social sciences is studied using works of specialists such as Gérard Delteil, Régis Debray, Félix Moser and Antoine Compagnon. Supported by these different studies, I am in a better position to define what fiction can bring to the transmission of the Gospel based on studies of fiction in theology by authors such as Paul Ricœur and Joseph Moingt. I conclude with a reflection on the transmission method of Saffia, femme de Smyrne and, I hope, with an explanation, namely, of why I continue using fiction to transmit the Gospel. A short story makes it possible for me to apply my study and, thereby, to open my reflection in a praxis.

[pt] O propósito das parábolas de Jesus, um estudo exegético de Mc 4,10-12. Esta pesquisa abordou o propósito do uso de parábolas nos ensinamento de Jesus, isto é, qual ou quais os motivos que levaram Jesus a usar parábolas em seus ensinamentos. Para alcançar os objetivos traçados, esta pesquisa combinou a metodologia da análise narrativa e análise retórica, considerando também os elementos históricos do texto. Com isto a exegese chegou a um resultado, apresentando outra possibilidade de interpretação da teoria sobre o ensino por parábolas expressa em Mc 4, 10-12. A pesquisa concluiu que na atual configuração há possibilidades de admitir que a perícope referida não afirma que Jesus ensinou por meio de parábolas para endurecer o coração de Seus ouvintes, e dificultar-lhes o acesso as coisas do Reino de Deus. Ao contrário disto a exegese concluiu que Jesus usou parábolas em Seus ensinamentos com o propósito de facilitar o processo de entendimento de todos que O ouviam, trazendo à compreensão as coisas do Reino de Deus através de uma linguagem que era familiar e natural aos Seus ouvintes. / [en] The purpose of Jesus parables, an exegetical study of Mk 4,10-12. This research survey the purpose of the use of parables in Jesus teachings, namely, what is or which are the reasons that led Jesus to use parables in his teachings. To achieve the goals outlined, this research combined narrative analysis and rhetorical analysis methodology, considering of historical elements of the text. Thereby the exegesis reached a result, bring up another interpretation possibility of theory about Jesus teaching by parables as it apear in Mk 4, 10-12. The research conclud that in current setting there is the possibility to acknowledge that the refered section of text does not state that Jesus taught by parables with the purpose of hardering hearts of his listeners, and to rise difficulties upon him in acessing of the things of the kingdom of God. Instead this exegesis conclude that Jesus used parables in his teachings with purpose to make easy the understanding process of all his listeners, bring up to the understanding the things of the kingdom of God through a language that was familiar and natural to his listeners.

A língua não é apenas um meio através do qual o ser humano expressa seu pensamento. Também não é apenas um código virtual já pronto e disponível fora do contexto de formação. Qualquer uma dessas compreensões desconsidera, a seu próprio modo, os falantes e situações de uso como determinantes dos fatos e regras da língua. A língua é essencialmente dialógica e deve ser compreendida enquanto forma ou processo de inter-ação, no qual os usuários interagem enquanto sujeitos sociais. Ela não é trabalho de um indivíduo, mas trabalho social e histórico seu e dos outros. E é para os outros e com os outros que ela se constitui. Por isso, se afirma que as interações ocorrem no interior de um enorme contexto social, histórico e ideológico e, nesses limites, a linguagem sofre interferências. Essa concepção exige uma leitura diferenciada do texto bíblico, ou seja, uma abordagem que alcance o aspecto histórico, social e dialógico do texto. Dessa maneira, o que se propõe é a leitura bíblica por meio do método sociológico, a leitura dos quatro lados. Esse método parte do pressuposto de que existem quatro lados ou aspectos que são determinantes na vida social de um povo. É uma metodologia orientada para uma leitura simplificada, com fins didáticos, que apresenta a totalidade do dinamismo social em quatro grandes aspectos ou dimensões da realidade social, a saber: econômico, social, político e ideológico. Fundamentado na concepção dialógica do texto, na teoria dos gêneros, no aspecto histórico-cultural com dados obtidos através de uma análise exegética e, especialmente, no aspecto sociológico da parábola do bom samaritano, este trabalho realiza uma leitura sociológica do texto de Lucas 10.2537 para alcançar o propósito da parábola do Bom Samaritano. Com essa leitura se identificaram várias vozes sociais que permeiam o texto e, também, uma proposta peculiar de modelo cristão que procura o sujeito do amor cristão em vez de se preocupar com o objeto e o limite dessa compaixão. / Language is not only a means through which human beings express their thought. It also is not simply a virtual code ready and available outside of the formation context. Any one of these comprehensions, each in its own way, does not consider the speakers and the situations of use as determiners of the facts and rules of the language. Language is essentially dialogic and should be understood as a form or process of inter-action, in which the users interact as social subjects. It is not the work of one individual, but the social and historical work of that individual and of others. And it is constituted for the others and with the others. That is why it is affirmed that the interactions occur within an enormous social, historical and ideological context and, in these limits, language suffers interferences. This concept demands a differentiated reading of the biblical text, that is, an approach which takes in the historical, social and dialogic aspect of the text. Thus, what is being proposed is a biblical reading through the sociological method, a reading from the four sides. This method is based on the presupposition that there exist four sides or aspects which determine the social life of a people. It is a methodology orientated toward a simplified reading with didactic goals, which presents the totality of the social dynamism in four great aspects or dimensions of the social reality, that is: economic, social, political and ideological. Based on the dialogic concept of the text, on the theory of genres, on the historical-cultural aspect with data obtained from an exegetical analysis and, especially, on the sociological aspect of the parable of the Good Samaritan, this paper carries out a sociological reading of the text of Luke 10:25-37 to reach the goal of the parable of the Good Samaritan. With this reading various social voices were identified which permeate the text as was also identified a peculiar proposal of a Christian model which seeks the protagonist of the Christian love instead of being concerned with the object and the limit of this compassion.

The passage the set of natural numbers to the integers and for these the rational is done by equivalence classes. From a historical perspective, in order to do that mathematics could advance, had to migrate from a sense of \reality" to an abstract concept of number not subject to the amount of idea. Since the beginning of this formal-logical construction of number systems it is necessary to use the concept of correspondences between any two non-empty sets. Finally , are also addressed the polynomial functions of 1st and 2nd degrees and the respective charts in orthogonal Cartesian plane. / O presente trabalho aborda a constru c~ao l ogico-formal dos sistemas num ericos desde, o conjunto dos n umeros naturais at e ao dos n umeros reais.

奧塔維亞•巴特勒《撒種的比喻》與《才幹的比喻》描述一個末日的反烏托邦世界。這兩本小說截取當今社會問題，讓我們對可預期的未來有所警惕。它們不僅提升我們對於現在社會問題的意識，同時不斷地注入並維持希望，為社會改變提供不同的解決方案。 做為批評式反烏托邦的現代文類，《比喻》系列小說透過融合末日小說文類，論述希望、烏托邦主義與生存之間的辯證關係。《比喻》系列小說藉由地球之種（Earthseed）的信念及其核心思想「改變即是上帝」（“God is Change”） 強調生存的重要性，並將生存進一步分為兩個層次：即時生存（immediate survival）及永續生存（lasting survival），而即時生存與永續生存之間亦存在一種辨證關係。本論文目的為探討《比喻》系列小說中的希望、烏托邦主義與生存在《比喻》系列中的互動，及它們之間獨特的辨證關係如何反映當今社會的處境與現代烏托邦文學的趨勢。 本論文分為五個章節：第一章將烏托邦定義為以社會改變為目的的思想及文類；第二章闡述烏托邦文學領域的發展，並將《比喻》系列定位為批判式反烏托邦，以建構希望、烏托邦主義與生存之間的辯證關係；第三章與第四章透過《比喻》系列的文本例證研究希望、烏托邦主義與生存之間的辯證關係如何運作，第三章探討《撒種的比喻》與即時生存，而第四章則探討《才幹的比喻》與永續生存；最後，第五章總結《比喻》系列所反映的當今社會局勢，從文本中發現希望、烏托邦主義與生存之間的辯證關係，並藉由這三者之間關係的理解，避免人類文明社會可能面臨的災難。 / Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower and Parable of the Talents depict a postapocalyptic dystopian world, extrapolated from the problems of present day society to provide us with a warning of our conceivable future. They raise awareness of current social problems, while maintaining a locus of hope and providing possible alternatives for social change. In the contemporary genre of “critical dystopias,” the Parable series merges together with the genre of postapocalyptic fiction to demonstrate a dialectical relationship between hope, utopianism and survival. The importance of survival is emphasized in the Parables through the belief system of Earthseed and its core idea of “God is Change,” and can be further distinguished into two levels—immediate survival and lasting survival, which also exist in a dialectical relationship with each other. The aim of this thesis is to discuss how the concepts of hope, utopianism and survival interact in the Parables, and what this unique dialectical relationship reflects about contemporary literary utopias and the present. This thesis is divided into five chapters: Chapter One defines utopia through the function of social change; Chapter Two provides a brief overview of the development of the literary utopian genre and establishes the Parables as critical dystopias, a form that enables and constitutes the dialectical relationship of hope, utopianism and survival; Chapter Three and Four contain the textual analysis of how the dialectical relationship between hope, utopianism and survival functions in the Parables, with Chapter Three focusing on Parable of the Sower and immediate survival, and Chapter Four focusing on Parable of the Talents and lasting survival; finally, Chapter Five concludes with how the Parables relate to our present social conditions, and how understanding the dialectical relationship between hope, utopianism and survival may assist humanity’s effort to avert a major crisis.
