O objetivo do trabalho é analisar a presença, as atividades e a repressão dos envolvidos através dos inquéritos policiais, processos devadiagem e correspondências da polícia guardados no AESP. Com este material foi possível acompanhar como diferentes definições de delitos eram acionadas pelos policiais, homens,mulheres, sendo eles réu, vítima ou testemunhas. Os principais interlocutores dos inquéritos polícias eram os homens e isso influenciou muito nas ações policiais e as suspeitas sobre a conduta moral das mulheres envolvidas. Nas interpretações das leis, buscava-se a proteção das meninas virgens, menores de idade para garantir a honestidade das famílias e o decoro público, da mesma forma acusavam os cáftens de corromper essas mulheres para viver da prostituição. No entanto, nas autuações da polícia, as suspeitas e intervenções das autoridades lidavam com diferentes sujeitos e compreensões de honra, liberdade, relacionamentos nem sempre preocupados com a honestidade das famílias e da nação / Abstract: This dissertation studies cases in which men and women were arrested by the police on the first decade of the Republic, on the city of São Paulo. The main objective of this work is to analyze the presence, the activities and the repression of the involved people through the police inquirements, ¿vagrancy¿ records and kept correspondence at the AESP. With this material, it was possible to follow how different definitions of crimes were used by the police officers, men, and women, either they were accused, victim or witnesses. The main speakers of those police inquirements were men, and that have influenced much on the police actions and the suspicious over the moral conduct of the women involved.

However, on the police acts, the suspects and the authority intervention handled with different people and honor comprehensions, freedom, relationships not always concerned with the nation family honesty / Mestrado / Historia Social da Cultura / Mestre em História

The discussion dealt with stylistic influences, compositional techniques, and performance considerations of chamber music involving clarinet composed by Bohuslav Martinu and included a performance of three of his works: Quartet. for clarinet, horn, cello, and side drum, Madrigals for oboe, clarinet, and bassoon, and Sextet for flute, oboe, clarinet, two bassoons, and piano. The selections performed and discussed in the lecture show compositional growth of the composer through the three periods of his life in which he composed chamber music which included winds. These three time periods are 1923-40 during his residency in Paris, 1941-56 during his residency in the United States, and 1957 until his death in 1959 when he returned permanently to Europe.

The purpose of this thesis is to analyse moral judgement in Newman's theology by examining his religious epistemology of the judgement of faith which he regularly illustrates with a moral analogy. Chapter one explains the philosophical and theological parameters of his religious epistemology in the 'University Sermons', and 'The Idea of a University'. This shows the primacy of the implicit reason of faith, and the secondary, but indispensable, function of explicit reason, manifest in Newmnan's explanation of liberal knowledge. Chapter two refines this by examining the 'Grammar of Assent, to show the objectivity and normativity of his epistemology in the concrete faith judgement of the illative sense. I show the primacy of personal assent in relation to the indispensable, but secondary, function of inferential investigation. Chapter three adopts the epistemology of the 'Grammar of Assent' to explain moral judgement. I introduce the term 'illative moral judgement' to show that concrete moral judgement can be a speculative truth of implicit reason which elicits a real assent of the imagination. There is a creative tension between concrete moral judgement and the abstract moral judgement entailed by the objective existence of the moral law; this is indicated by the moral sense of conscience within the context of his theology of a religious imagination. Moral judgement, action, and progress are connected by examining the role of the will and the influence of grace. The religious dimension of moral judgement is explained by understanding conscience's sense of duty in terms of intentionality within a horizon of belief. And his religious epistemology reveals the mode of reversing concrete moral judgement. Chapter four shows the relevance of Newman's proposals for moral judgement in contemporary moral theology.

This thesis unites a selection of H. G. Wells’s scientific romances with the theoretical approaches of philosopher Gilles Deleuze. Deleuzian theory provides a challenging yet powerful set of conceptual tools, used to rethink existing texts and critical paradigms, allowing the revaluation of literature, film and other fields. Within specific case studies, various aspects of Wellsian texts are used to exemplify a number Deleuzian concepts; for example, ‘Becoming-Animal’ in The Island of Doctor Moreau, the ‘Body Without Organs’ in The War of The Worlds and ‘Nomadology’ in The Time Machine. Characteristically, rather than simply applying philosophy to the arts, Deleuzian theory attempts to extract philosophy from them, and this approach should aim to engage positively and constructively with a text, serving to demonstrate ‘productive use of the literary machine…that extracts from the text its revolutionary force’ (Anti-Oedipus 116). Via this process, various Wellsian conceits are examined that have subsequently become synonymous with the science fiction genre, such as transhumanism, alien invasion and time travel. In performing this process, Wells is recast as a writer and thinker who demonstrates resonance with Deleuze’s theoretical approach. Having established the value of a Deleuzian reading via the medium of the specific textual case-studies, the thesis concludes with an argument concerning whether Wells himself can be positioned in terms of a Deleuzian ‘conceptual persona’, and ultimately the question of his adherence to the concept of ‘minor’ literature and writing is addressed. Deleuze maintains that any work of art ‘points a way through life, finds a way through the cracks’ (Negotiations 143), and how Wells’s oeuvre engages with this process is demonstrated, taking into account the myriad of ‘mutations’ to which it has been subject. Ultimately, this serves to demonstrate the ‘untimely’ power of Wells’s literature; ‘acting counter to our time and thereby acting on our time and, let us hope, for the benefit of a time to come’ (Difference xix).

Neste estudo, mergulhamos na poesia de Oswald de Andrade para refletirmos sobre o papel do humor e da escrita de vanguarda para o desenvolvimento de uma crítica social. Destacamos a potência do fazer poético como ato utópico, visto que desestabilizando formas cristalizadas pela cultura e sentidos homogeneizados, cria nossas possibilidades de significações e de renovação da linguagem. A partir do texto “O Estranho”, de Freud, pensamos o estranhamento como um ato utópico, já que interroga o sujeito quanto as certezas estabelecidas do seu encontro com o outro. Tal como a utopia, o estranhamento não encontra respostas, mas desencadeia perguntas. O ato analítico, na medida em que realiza cortes na cadeia discursiva, também possibilita o surgimento de algo novo, de uma outra forma de contar a ficção de si mesmo. A partir daí, podemos pensar uma interlocução entre esses três atos: poético, utópico e analítico. Nessa aventura, o encontro com a diferença, vinda das potencialidades do outro, é considerado fator fundamental para a construção de uma nova vivência do cotidiano compactado, reinventando rumos. / In this study, we plunge into Oswald de Andrade’s poetry to analyze the role played by humor and groundbreaking writing in the development of social critique. Special emphasis is given to the power of poetry as a utopian act, for it creates our possibilities of meaning and language renewal by destabilizing crystallized cultural forms and homogenized senses. In Freud’s "The Uncanny", one can see strangeness as a utopian act, since it inquires the individual about the established certainties of his encounter with the other. Just like utopia, strangeness does not find answers, but triggers questions. The analytic act, in that it performs cuts in the discursive chain, allows the emergence of something new, another way to tell one’s own fiction. Thereafter, one can think of a dialogue between these three acts: poetic, utopian and analytical. In such adventure, the encounter with the difference coming from the potential of the other is a key element to the construction of a new way to experience the compressed everyday life, reinventing ways.

My dissertation, Ways of Living: An Ethical Realism in the Prose of Gottfried Keller, takes as its focus the extensive discourse in mid-nineteenth century German letters on what constitutes a properly “realist” work of literature. My study examines three major works by Gottfried Keller: Der grüne Heinrich, the Leute von Seldwyla cycle, and the political satire Martin Salander. I consider these prose works as a response firstly to the call by critics like Julian Schmidt and Gustav Freytag for a return to das Reale, as they called it, and secondly to the contemporaneous developments in the French and English novel. Keller, I argue, is less interested in offering a comprehensive social portrait of his native Switzerland than he is in exploring contrasting ethics, or modes of disposition towards the world: resentment and affirmation, parsimoniousness and wastefulness, sensuality and renunciation. To this end, Keller uses the familiar structures of Realist prose, like the construction of characters as types, the extensive description of physical objects, or the use of narrative topoi like the marriage plot, to dramatize conflicts between various Lebensarten: self-sacrifice in service of an unattainable ideal or fleeting happiness in the here and now, for example. For Keller, then, the “objectivity” championed by the Realists is above all a way of directing the reader’s attention towards the crises of value underpinning the most unremarkable of people and the most mundane of occupations. In Keller’s prose, I conclude, Realism is less an aesthetic program than a way of comporting oneself, a survival mechanism by means of which the hard truths of life, above all the vanity of human endeavor and the painful renunciations demanded by the world of work, are poeticized in order to make them bearable.
