151	A confederação dos tamoios e Os timbiras : historicidade do índio brasileiro Palmeira, Ariene Braz 23 February 2017 (has links) Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / Não consta / Este trabalho pretende realçar algumas considerações acerca da representação da história indígena em duas obras épicas indianistas brasileiras, com foco, sobretudo, na resistência dos indígenas ao processo de colonização. De forma sintética, são alguns os pontos de vista em relação ao índio brasileiro: nos séculos XVI, XVII e XVIII, os índios constituíam um povo selvagem e pagão a ser catequisado e convertido; no século XIX, a partir da filosofia moral europeia, ou eram bons selvagens, quando se submetiam à colonização, ou abomináveis antropófagos, quando a ela resistiam. Ainda no século XIX, quase extintos, foram literária e artisticamente tomados como os símbolos nobres do Brasil independente. Hoje eles são ora os puros paladinos da natureza ora os inimigos internos, instrumentos da cobiça internacional sobre a Amazônia. Diante desse quadro contrastante, este trabalho procura, através da leitura crítica dos poemas épicos A Confederação dos Tamoios (1856), de Gonçalves de Magalhães, e Os Timbiras (1857), de Gonçalves Dias, realizar um estudo das personagens indígenas presentes nessas epopeias sob a perspectiva literária, histórica e antropológica. Ao final, o que deve ficar claro é que a atual posição especial dos índios na sociedade brasileira lhes advém de seus direitos históricos nesta terra: direitos constantemente desrespeitados, inclusive no âmbito das representações literárias, mas essenciais para sua defesa e para que tenham acesso verdadeiro a uma cidadania da qual podem ser excluídos. Assim, destacamos que a obras literárias selecionadas contribuem de maneira significativa para explorarmos as relações interculturais entre texto e sociedade. Isto é, discorreremos acerca da importância de investigações de obras épicas que tratem do indianismo no Brasil, pois esse campo de pesquisa corrobora com a desconstrução de representações parciais da história pelo viés literário, ainda que não desmereçamos a importância do gênero épico como forma de circulação de aspectos culturais, míticos, históricos e estéticos, que as obras épicas nos permitem revisitar.

152	The Quest for the Lost Princess in Rabbi Nachman of Braslav's "Book of Stories from Ancient Times" Azriel, Yakov Shammai 29 November 2003 (has links) One of the most innovative and original Hasidic leaders and thinkers, Rabbi Nachman of Braslav (1772 – 1810), related thirteen long, complex fables during the final four years of his life. This doctoral thesis presents an analysis of the quest for the Lost Princess in Rabbi Nachman of Braslav's "Book of Stories in Ancient Times." The image of the Lost Princess and the quest to find and rescue her, which appear in four of these stories (including the first and the last ones), are central symbols in Rabbi Nachman's thought. The most important key to an analysis of this image and theme lies in understanding the symbols and concepts of the Jewish mystical tradition (the Kabbalah), as Rabbi Nachman himself suggested. / Classsics, Near & Far East & Religious Studies / D.

Alors que plusieurs chercheurs s’attardent à analyser les conditions ayant impulsé ces changements politiques, très peu tentent réellement d’en clarifier la nature intrinsèque. Ce que nous suggérons, c’est que la fin du monopole d’alternance au pouvoir entre les deux grands partis traditionnels (AD et COPEI) en 1998, puis l’implantation de la Constitution bolivarienne en 1999, ont fait entrer le Venezuela dans une nouvelle étape de la modernité. Cette nouvelle étape prendrait assise sur une extension des droits politiques, eux-mêmes devenus le socle de la démocratie. La conséquence de cela serait une refondation du politique inspirée des idéaux républicains promus lors de la fondation du pays en 1811 : la souveraineté et l’autodétermination.

154	La petite école des deux cités : genèse et contribution du mouvement des Écoles du Dimanche au développement de l'éducation populaire en France de 1814 à 1902 un modèle d'éducation " pan-anthropique " Ruolt, Anne 20 September 2010 (has links) (PDF) Si l'historiographie française contemporaine est quasi unanime, se référant à la Révolution Française et au Rapport sur l'instruction de Condorcet pour établir l'acte de naissance de l'Éducation Populaire, selon Mallinson les Écoles du Dimanche (ÉdD) voilà 'le vrai commencement de l'éducation populaire, ouverte à tous les enfants sans distinction' ! Dans quelle mesure pouvons-nous vraiment parler des ÉdD comme pionnières en éducation au 19e siècle en France ? Pourquoi leur absence dans l'histoire classique ? Quelle cartographie des courants d'idées et de valeurs peut-on esquisser à partir des promoteurs de ce mouvement ? <br>Fondée sur des sources archivistiques (manuscrits, PV d'AG, périodiques, mémoires, médailles commémoratives, documents iconographiques...), d'acteurs des ÉdD (A de Staël, Ph-A Stapfer, F Guizot, L Cadoret, F Monod, J-P Cook, M Lelièvre) selon une approche a posterioriste, et une méthode herméneutique mais aussi statistique, cette thèse montre l'apport en éducation du courant 'protestant-orthodoxe' marqué par la 'théologie du Réveil' et caractérisé par le paradigme dooyeweerdien : 'création-chute-rédemption'. La méthode 'pananthropique' est fondée sur l'anthropologie et le triangle pédagogique du comeniusien Gauthey. Pour l'ancien pasteur de Pestalozzi, l'éducation concerne le corps, l'esprit, le coeur et l'âme de l'homme et vise à 'donner à toutes ses facultés le plus haut degré de développement dont elles sont susceptibles'. Cette École des deux cités, qui articule sans dualisme, la cité des hommes et celle de Dieu, est la première branche d'un espalier précurseur de la SEIPPF, des Écoles : déguenillées, missionnaires, du jeudi, de garde, de vacances...

156	Toni Morrison and the literary canon whiteness, blackness, and the construction of racial identity Phiri, Aretha Myrah Muterakuvanthu January 2009 (has links) Toni Morrison, in Playing in the Dark, observes the pervasive silence that surrounds race in nineteenth-century canonical literature. Observing the ways in which the “Africanist” African-American presence pervades this literature, Morrison has called for an investigation of the ways in which whiteness operates in American canonical literature. This thesis takes up that challenge. In the first section, from Chapters One through Three, I explore how whiteness operates through the representation of the African-American figure in the works of three eminent nineteenth-century American writers, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Walt Whitman, and Mark Twain. The texts studied in this regard are: Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Leaves of Grass, and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. This section is not concerned with whether these texts constitute racist literature but with the ways in which the study of race, particularly whiteness, reveals the contradictions and insecurities that attend (white American) identity. As such, Morrison’s own fiction, written in response to white historical representations of African-Americans also deserves attention. The second section of this thesis focuses on Morrison’s attempt to produce an authentically “black” literature. Here I look at two of Morrison’s least studied but arguably most contentious novels particularly because of what they reveal of Morrison’s complex position on race. In Chapter Four I focus on Tar Baby and argue that this novel reveals Morrison’s somewhat essentialist position on blackness and racial, cultural, and gendered identity, particularly as this pertains to responsibilities she places on the black woman as culture-bearer. In Chapter Five I argue that Paradise, while taking a particularly challenging position on blackness, reveals Morrison’s evolving position on race, particularly her concern with the destructive nature of internalized racism. This thesis concludes that while racial identities have very real material consequences, whiteness and blackness are ideological and social constructs which, because of their constructedness, are fallible and perpetually under revision.

158	Sentimental spectacles : the sentimental novel, natural language, and early film performance Hart, Hilary, 1969- 03 1900 (has links) Advisor: Mary E. Wood. xii, 181 leaves : ill. ; 29 cm. Print copy also available for check out and consultation in the University of Oregon's library under the call number: PS374.S714 H37 2004. / The nineteenth-century American sentimental novel has only in the last twenty years received consideration from the academy as a legitimate literary tradition. During that time feminist scholars have argued that sentimental novels performed important cultural work and represent an important literary tradition. This dissertation contributes to the scholarship by placing the sentimental novel within a larger context of intellectual history as a tradition that draws upon theoretical sources and is a source itself for later cultural developments. In examining a variety of sentimental novels, I establish the moral sense philosophy as the theoretical basis of the sentimental novel's pathetic appeals and its theories of sociability and justice. The dissertation also addresses the aesthetic features of the sentimental novel and demonstrates again the tradition's connection to moral sense philosophy but within the context of the American elocution revolution. I look at natural language theory to render more legible the moments of emotional spectacle that are the signature of sentimental aesthetics. The second half of the dissertation demonstrates a connection between the sentimental novel and silent film. Both mediums rely on a common aesthetic storehouse for signifying emotions. The last two chapters of the dissertation compare silent film performance with emotional displays in the sentimental novel and in elocution and acting manuals. I also demonstrate that the films of D. W. Griffith, especially The Birth of a Nation, draw upon on the larger conventions of the sentimental novel.

160	The life and times of Kama Chungwa, 1798-1875 Yekela, Drusilla Siziwe January 1989 (has links) Few students of History understand the derivation and/or origin of the Gqunukhwebe oath "Ndifung' uChungw' efel' ennyameni: I swear by Chungwa who is lying dead at Mnyameni (Alexandria)." A desire to eludicate this point and other related facts inspired me to undertake a close examination of the history of the Gqunukhwebe people, selecting as my main theme the life-work of Chief Kama. In the first chapter I am discussing the creation of the Gqunukhwebe Chiefdom under Khwane by the Xhosa King, Tshiwo. The central theme here is the Black-White confrontation of the 17th - 18th centuries on the Cape Eastern Frontier. As a result of the collision the Gqunukhwebe people were forced to make a home on the banks of the Thwecu River along the east coast. It was here that Kama reached early manhood. The second chapter describes the establishment of Wesleyville Missionary Station by William Shaw in 1823, the first Methodist Missionary Institution in all Xhosaland. In chapter three the discussion centers on the significance of Kama's conversion. An unforeseen outcome of his public profession of the Christian faith was that it not only stigmatized the latter religion as a force destructive of the old order in Xhosa society, but it also reshaped Kama's political image for the good of his religious life. He not only fled from the neighbourhood of his relations and sojourned in a strange land, but also reinforced the Colonial forces in the contemporary frontier struggles. His integrity, self-sacrifice and pro-Colonial inclination eventually won him Middledrift. Chapter four opens with Kama's settling in Middledrift. The theme here is two-pronged. It presents the 'Cattle-Killing' delusion as a source of new trials for the 'priest-chief', and at the same time exposes the Colonial Government's efforts to gain ascendancy above the Xhosa chiefs. Kama's land was the first testing ground in this respect, and the Chief was initially agreeable to the scheme. Chapter five alludes to instances of Chief Kama's unco-operative attitude as signs that his compromising spirit had its limits. An atmosphere of disregard towards Kama pervades the period. But the adversities that threatened to dominate his later life did not by any means shake his Christian principles and convictions. The traces of his good works may to this day be seen in Middledrift, the traditional home of the Kamas.
