La théologie naît de la parole de Dieu. Elle doit donc expliciter ce qui caractérise la parole de Dieu. Or, c’est dans le Christ que Dieu s’adresse en personne aux hommes. Il est en outre nécessaire de préciser quelle philosophie de la parole est capable de servir d’instrument à cette réflexion théologique. Dans le Christ, parole et geste sont relatifs à son Je Suis divin et sont portés par une intention et un jugement nouveaux, divins. On reprend ainsi quelques questions fondamentales : foi et intelligence ; histoire et métaphysique ; théologie et mystique : en terre chrétienne, elles sont inséparables et une sagesse théologique demande d’être à la fois savoureuse et rigoureuse du point de vue de la vérité ; ce qui le permet est une philosophie qui explicite la cause finale grâce à l’amour. Enfin, on aborde l’unité et l’organisation de la théologie : c’est à partir du Christ que s’explicite l’ordre de la théologie dans le développement organique de ses parties. / Theology flows from the word of God. Its task, therefore, is to explicate what characterises that word. In Christ, God speaks in person to mankind, which is why we need to establish which philosophy of the human word is capable of serving theological reflection. Christ’s words and actions are relative to His divine I Am ; his words and actions are carried by a new, divine judgement and intention. This brings us to some fundamental questions : faith and intelligence ; history and metaphysics ; theology and the mystical. These pairs are inseparable in Christianity. A theological wisdom must be both appealing and rigorous as regards the truth ; what is it that allows it to be just that ? A philosophy which, thanks to love, explicates the final cause. Finally, we look at the unity and the organisation of theology : Christ himself determines the order of theology in the organic development of its different areas.

L'Ethique prétend nous conduire comme par la main vers la béatitude et le salut, Elle nous montre le chemin qui nous permet, en associant le plus possible nos affects à des idées vraies, de parvenir à la connaissance vraie et à l'amour de Dieu. A qui s'adresse l' « Ethique » ? Notre hypothèse est qu'elle s'adresse aux mêmes lecteurs que ceux du « Traité théologico-politique » qui philosopheraient plus librement s'ils n'en étaient empêchés par l'idée que la raison doit être la servante de la théologie. Après avoir montré que l'Ecriture Sainte devait être interprétée avant d'être affirmée Parole de Dieu, que la certitude prophétique n'était qu'une certitude morale, Spinoza propose la certitude mathématique de l'entendement, comme véritable parole de Dieu qui parle directement à notre âme, Dieu qui se fait connaître, non comme un Dieu transcendant, mais comme un Dieu immanent, cause efficiente de toutes choses et donc de nos idées claires et distinctes, qui nous permettront de découvrir un Dieu qui agit librement par nécessité de nature, en totale opposition avec les doctrines scolastique et cartésienne. Cette révélation rationnelle n'annule néanmoins pas la révélation prophétique dont la vérité ne se trouve pas dans la spéculation, mais dans les enseignements moraux, et surtout par le message d'amour du Christ, modèle de vie vraie. Mais si le but ultime de chacune des révélations est de jouir de l'amour de Dieu, quelle est en chacune la nature de cet amour ? / Ethic purports to lead us, as if by the band, towards beatitude and salvation. It shows us the way which allows us, by associating as much as possible our affects to real ideas, to attain true knowledge and the love of God. Whom does “Ethics” address ? Our hypothesis is that it addresses the same readers as the “Theologico-Political Treatise” does, who would philosophize more f eely would they not be prevented from it by the thought that reason should serve theology. After having shown that scripture should be interpreted before being claimed God's word, that prophetic certainty was just moral certainty, Spinoza offers the mathematical certainty of understanding, as the true word of God which speaks directly to our soul ; God who becomes known not as a transcendental God but as an immanent God, efficient cause of all things and thus of our ideas, distinct and clear, which shall allow us to discover a God which acts feely out of necessity of nature, in outright opposition to the scholastic and Cartesian doctrines. This rational revelation nonetheless does not cancel the prophetic revelation, which truth isn't in speculation, but in moral teachings, and especially by in Christ's message of love, model of true life. But if the ultimate goal of each of the revelations is to enjoy the love of God, what is in each of them the nature of this love?

A presente pesquisa procura um deslocamento dos limites da arte para situações da vida, através da redescoberta do olhar sobre determinadas imagens fotográficas e o fenômeno do apagamento, contrariando assim o excesso de exposição que caracteriza a fotografia desde suas origens. A proposta plástica explora as dimensões estéticas de situações banais e características como o esquecimento, o apagamento e o esconderijo, surpreendendo o olhar do observador com objetos onde este não espera encontrá-los, expandindo o campo do laboratório e trazendo o questionamento dos processos da fotografia para o cotidiano. Os objetos constituem-se de pequenas embalagens contendo em seu interior fotografias com sais de prata ainda em processo de oxidação, resultando numa imagem instável que, ao ser exposta à luz, sofre um apagamento. Dessa forma, cada vez que a fotografia é retirada da embalagem, há uma perda progressiva da informação visual. As embalagens são escondidas – intencionalmente esquecidas - em livros de bibliotecas de acesso público, onde podem ser encontradas por pessoas desavisadas: observadores acidentais. A escolha dos livros baseia-se no conteúdo dos mesmos, que possuem relação com os temas explorados neste trabalho. O apagamento da imagem e seu modo de circulação questionam o lugar da imagem fotográfica e propõe uma extensão da experiência do laboratório para outros contextos de recepção. / This search explores the limits of art to life situations, through the rediscovery of view on certain photographic images and the erasure phenomenon, being contrary to the over-exposure that characterizes the photo from its origins. The plastic proposal explores the aesthetic dimensions of banal situations and characteristics such as forgetfulness, erasing and hiding surprising the observer eye with artistic object where it does not expect to find them, expanding the field of the laboratory and bringing the questioning of photo procedures for the daily life. The objects are small packages with inside photos with salts of silver still in process of oxidation, resulting an unstable image that suffers deletion when exposed to light. Thus, each time the photo comes from packaging, there is a progressive loss of sharpness.

This dissertation seeks to capture Muhammad's emergence as Prophet. It starts from the premise that he located himself as a Prophet within a fraternity of prophethood. More specifically he has seen his work as a continuation of the Biblical prophetic tradition. However he has stressed his election as correcting what has been altered in this Biblical tradition. Muhammad: A prophet of God argues that he has as prophet the same defining elements as Biblical prophets; as result we must not criticise him unnecessarily, that is, for the sake of fitting him into our categories. Muhammad must be seen terms of his experiences. In addition we must capture his contribution to humanity. / Religious Studies and Arabic / M.A. (Religious Studies)

It certifies that the mystery is the manifestation of the sacred for the human being knowledge. Nevertheless, this research concludes that the human being unites to the divine from the knowledge of the revelation of the mystery. Tillich says that the existential knowledge is based on an encounter in which a new meaning is created and recognized. The revelation of the mystery is an existential knowledge and its manifestation in the human bearer of revelation comes to know another person, he knows his history and participates in the reality in which the mystery is revealed in its totality. The mystery is the manifestation of the sacred, for that its revelation causes profound changes in the human being. In Tillich s Systematic Theology the mystery is described as a mark of revelation, its first mark. However as we approach to the text we see that the mystery is more than a mark to Tillich, the mystery is the manifestation of the ground of being, the mystery is the manifestation of the divine that communicates symbolically to the human being from the final revelation of Jesus as the Christ. / Esta pesquisa propõe-se a tematizar o mistério na Teologia Sistemática de Paul Tillich. Ela constata que o mistério é a manifestação do sagrado para o conhecimento do ser humano. Portanto, essa pesquisa conclui que o ser humano une - se ao divino a partir do conhecimento da revelação do mistério. Tillich afirma que o conhecimento existencial basea-se num encontro no qual uma nova significação é criada e reconhecida. A revelação do mistério é um conhecimento existencial e na sua manifestação o ser humano portador da revelação passa a conhecer outra pessoa, ele conhece a sua história e participa da realidade na qual o mistério se revelou na sua totalidade. O mistério é a manifestação do sagrado, por isso a sua revelação causa no ser humano profundas mudanças. Na teologia sistemática de Tillich o mistério é descrito como uma marca da revelação, a sua primeira marca. No entanto ao nos aproximarmos do texto percebemos que ele é mais que uma marca para Tillich, o mistério é a manifestação do fundamento do ser, o mistério é a manifestação do divino que se comunica simbolicamente ao ser humano a partir da revelação final de Jesus como o Cristo.

This dissertation constitutes a fresh interpretation of Exodus 34:29-35 and analyzes how the passage is used in both the Old and New Testaments. Chapter 1 is a historical overview of how this passage has been interpreted through the centuries. Chapter 2 provides an exegetical discussion of Exodus 32-34, which makes up the context of the passage in question. Chapter 3 argues that the primarily exegetical problem within this passage, the identification of the meaning of the verbal form of "qrn," is resolved by the recognition that it means "to shine" or "emanate light/rays" as opposed to "had horns" or other interpretations. The function of the entire phrase--"the skin of his face shone"--is fourfold: as a reminder or extension of Yhwh's presence at Sinai, to distinguish Moses in terms of status, to communicate Yhwh's "goodness," and to transition from the rebellion narrative in chapters 32-34 to the building of the tabernacle in 35-40. Knowing the function of the phrase sheds light on the concomitant matter of Moses' veil ("masweh"), which is more akin to a scarf than to a mask, and which functions simply to hide Moses' face when he is uninvolved with his role as mediator because his face was frightening and disturbing to the Israelites. The exegetical study in chapter 3 culminates in an explanation of the theology of Exodus 34:29-35, focusing on God's presence, glory, grace/compassion, and life/light. This thesis is developed in chapter 4, which shows that how certain OT passages highlight the image of a shining face as a theological metaphor for grace and compassion. Many later biblical texts (e.g., Num 6:24-27, portions of the Psalter and the book of Daniel) also echo this language in prayers and songs. In addition, idiomatic expressions about the "face" or the brightness of the face are found in some extrabiblical sources and ANE inscriptions, which confirm and validate the interpretation in chapter 3. Three further texts are examined with relation to the role of Sinai theophanies (1 Kgs 19), the "veiling" of God's presence in the future (Hab 3:1-4), and images of God's eschatological glory (Isa 60:1-5, 19-20). Chapter 5 applies the OT study to the NT, where special attention is given to three passages: the narrative of the transfiguration of Jesus in Matthew 17:1-8, Paul's statements in 2 Corinthians 3:7-18 about the old and new covenants, and the prologue to John's Gospel in John 1:1-18. Chapter 6 summarizes the study and concludes the work.

Por definição, pode ser considerada como toda e qualquer conduta ou manipulação sexual entre adultos e crianças/adolescentes, com a finalidade precípua de estimular ou utilizar sexualmente estes últimos, para obtenção de prazer sexual, sem a necessidade de que haja expedientes violentos, ou força física, por parte do agressor. A ausência/insuficiência de investigações científicas abordando o fenômeno da violência sexual infanto-juvenil doméstica/intrafamiliar, notadamente com enfoque direcionado para a revelação, bem como a experiência profissional que acumulamos, atuando nas áreas criminal, civil e da infância e juventude compõem, entre outras, o quadro de justificativas para esta pesquisa. O objetivo foi caracterizar uma tipologia do fluxo de procedimentos e dos atos normativos (inquéritos policiais e/ou processos judiciais) adotados a partir da revelação do fato, até a finalização do processo de responsabilização do acusado/agressor, com vista a identificar que aspectos (supervalorizações, subjetivações, lacunas, omissões, etc., deliberados, ou não) podem ter sido decisivos para o desfecho dos casos.A pesquisa se deu numa cidade de aproximadamente trinta e cinco mil habitantes, do interior do Estado de São Paulo, abrangendo casos ocorridos no período compreendido entre os anos de 1992 e 2003, utilizando-se como fonte inquéritos policiais e processos arquivados no Fórum da Comarca. Dados os objetivos propostos e as características do objeto de estudo... / Child and juvenile sexual abuse has been for ages a complex phenomenon that trespasses the boundaries of our comprehension, occurring indiscriminately in our society regardless economic status, culture, race and gender. By definition, it can be considered any kind of behavior or sexual manipulation between adults and children / adolescents with the aim of stimulating and sexually using the latter, to obtain sexual satisfaction, without the use of violence or physical strength on the part of the perpetrator. The lack of scientific research covering the subject of child and juvenile sexual abuse within the family environment, focusing at the revelation, as well as the professional experience acquired for the past years working in the criminal and civil areas, child and juvenile areas, among many other facts, justify this research. The aim of this study was to highlight a chain of procedures and the normative rulings (police investigation and/or court suits) adopted from the moment of the revelation of the fact itself until the finalization of the process of making the perpetrator responsible for his acts, aiming to identify what aspects ( overvaluations, subjectivities, blanks, omissions , either intentional or not) must have been decisive to the outcome of the cases. The research was conducted in a city of approximately thirty five thousand inhabitants, in the interior of the state of São Paulo, covering cases that happened in the period between the years of 1992 and 2003, using as source police investigation files and law suits filed at the Justice Hall. Due to the proposed objectives of the study, the quali-quantitative method was chosen to allow the necessary flexibility to study accurately the collected data from...

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / O presente trabalho consiste em um estudo crítico do romance Sem tecto, entre ruínas, de Augusto Abelaira. Inicialmente é feita a análise sobre as possíveis consequências de uma apreensão descontínua e material do tempo, seus efeitos nas relações entre o protagonista e seu mundo, que se apresentam sob a forma de tédio e paralisia. Para a crítica proposta foram retomados conceitos descontinuidade e homogeneidade apresentados pelo filósofo Henri Bergson, além da noção de desligamento e desejo demonstrados pela sociologia de Zigmunt Bauman. O próximo alvo contemplado na pesquisa é a presença da memória e da lembrança indicados sob o ponto de vista contínuo do tempo, também analisados à luz da filosofia de Bergson, além do pensamento de Gilles Deleuze. A partir desse caminho investigativo é possível pensar a condição do protagonista como um confronto de si, uma experiência do tempo que traz uma revelação mediante a condição de ser tarde demais / This work provides a critical analysis on the novel Sem tecto, entre ruínas by Augusto Abelaira. In the first instance this study begans with the analysis of the possible consequences aroused by a material apprehension of time as well as its impact on relations between the protagonist and the world in which he lives, wich are presented by the feelings of boredom and paralysis. For the proposed work were taken up concepts of discontinuance and homogeneity created by the philosopher Henri Bergson, as well as the notion of detachment and desire demonstrated by the sociology of Zigmunt Bauman. The next target contemplated in the research is the presence of memory and recollection indicated under the point of view of continuous time, also examined by the philosophy of Bergson, in addition to the thought of Gilles Deleuze. Based on this investigative path is possible to consider the condition of the protagonist as a confront with itself, an experience of time that brings up a revelation upon the condition of being too late

This disertation is mapping the main aspects of fundamental theology in the writings of the important American theologian, Cardinal Avery Dulles S.J. These are: Revelation, Faith and Church. The chapter about Cardinal's life story and writings as well as exposition of theological method in general focused on the Cardinal's own method in theology precedes the treatise of mentioned fundamental theology aspects. The method in question is the one of symbolic realism, which works with fundamental theology topics due to the model typologies (models of revelation, models of faith, and models of the church). Given theme of each typology is introduced as a theme of fundamental theology, later the detailed analysis is done and at the end the Dulles's own solution of the particular problem is presented. All mentioned themes prove some mutual relationships which together create the "inner dynamics of Christian life", which has its enjambments also in the whole history of salvation.
