A thematic and formal analysis of Jean-Aubert Loranger's poetic tale "Le Passeur" [1920], and of Gabrielle Roy's novel La Montagne secrete [1962], shows that the construction of the two heroes' respective identity is directly related to the representation of small and large rivers in the two stories. Considering the generic difference between the two texts, these similarities---which are shaped up in a four steps "organizing scheme"---suggest the existence of a real structure in the construction of the modern identity (quebecoise). La Grande traversee, an historical novel about the massive Irish emigration of 1847, narrates the quest of identity of Seamus Doyle, while following the same four steps of this particular movement.

This East-West comparative study can be looked upon as my attempt to better understand people living in two different worlds and societies---the former Communist Russia and Western countries. It is a chance for me to take the best from the two mentalities and concentrate on what unites Eastern and Western scholars in their interpretation of Vygotskian psychology, his theory on education and his ideas on teaching a second language. Ironically, this became possible far away from Russia, the country where I first heard the name of Vygotsky. / I owe my "meeting" Vygotsky in Montreal to my ESL Curriculum Development, Ethnography classes professor and my thesis supervisor Mary Maguire who has helped me to rediscover Vygotsky on Canadian soil. / My thesis is one more attempt to contribute to the existing research on theoretical interpretations of Vygotsky's theory of psychological development. It is one more voice of a teacher and native speaker of Russian, captivated by Vygotsky's ideas and his lifelong search for the universal concepts essential for building the future. That is, raising and teaching children. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

La presente investigación presenta un estudio descriptivo hecho desde una perspectiva constructivista piagetiana, cuyo objetivo es narrar la psicogénesis de conceptos económicos en escolares chilenos portadores de ceguera congénita.Nos ha interesado describir como construyen los niños y adolescentes ciegos algunos conceptos sociales, específicamente aquellos relacionados con la acuñación, emisión y circulación del dinero, el papel que juegan los bancos en el ciclo económico de un país, las nociones de ganancia, el concepto de interés bancario, la falsificación del mismo, la determinación de los precios y la inflación, entre otros. En resumen, cómo construyen estos niños y adolescentes algunos conceptos económicos. Denegri y sus colaboradores (1998, 2000) demostraron que los niños y adolescentes videntes construyen las nociones económicas en un proceso evolutivo que se da en tres niveles: pensamiento extraeconómico, pensamiento económico subordinado y pensamiento económico inferencial, que implican menor a mayor conocimiento de estos conceptos sucesivamente, pero hasta la fecha de inicio del presente estudio no se habían encontrado en la literatura especializada, investigaciones sobre la misma temática con niños ciegos. La pregunta que ha guiado esta investigación es: ¿Cómo construirán los niños y adolescentes con ceguera congénita sus conceptos sobre economía, debido a su imposibilidad de acceder a las "experiencias visibles" descritas por Delval, Enesco y Navarro (1994) y que son tan importantes para construir la noción de mundo?Para responder a esta pregunta de investigación, el estudio se dividió en dos partes: un estudio de validación de la entrevista piagetiana denominada "Origen y circulación del dinero" diseñada por Denegri, Delval, Ripoll, Palavecinos y Keller (1998) para investigar el desarrollo de conceptos económicos en niños videntes y verificar si ésta podía aplicarse a niños ciegos. Verificada su aplicabilidad y después de hacerle algunos pequeños cambios se procedió a la segunda parte que consistió en la aplicación de la entrevista clínica piagetiana denominada "Origen y circulación del dinero para niños y adolescentes ciegos" (Keller, 2000) con lo que se dio paso a la investigación principal de esta tesis.Ésta se efectuó entrevistando a una muestra de 60 escolares invidentes, balanceada por sexo y tres tramos de edad, que asistían a escuelas especiales para niños con ceguera congénita ubicadas de norte a sur del país. Las entrevistas fueron audio grabadas, luego transcritas a un formato mecanografiado. El contenido de las entrevistas fue sometido a un análisis de contenido simple para establecer categorías. Las categorías establecidas fueron analizadas mediante el uso de tablas de frecuencia para describir las secuencias evolutivas encontradas y el estadístico Gamma para estimar diferencias significativas entre los distintos grupos de edad y de género. Una vez realizado el análisis de categorías se efectuó un segundo tipo de análisis tendiente a determinar la existencia de niveles diferentes y progresivos de cómo niños y adolescentes construyen los conceptos de economía y que agruparan diversas categorías y dieran cuenta de la forma global de comprensión del mundo económico. Se respetaron los cuatro criterios de rigor descritos por Lincoln y Guba (1985). La codificación de las respuestas, su inclusión en categorías y la inclusión de éstas en los niveles de pensamiento económico fueron sometidas a triangulación y pruebas de fiabilidad. Los resultados de la investigación principal indicaron una clara secuencia evolutiva en la conceptualización de conceptos económicos, pese a que los participantes sólo se ubicaron en los primeros dos niveles de pensamiento económico descritos por Denegri, et al. (1998,2000) Los hallazgos e implicaciones se discuten a la luz de investigaciones vinculadas y se entregan algunas orientaciones pedagógicas para enseñar estos conceptos a niños y adolescentes con ceguera congénita. / The present study provides a descriptive account of the psychogenesis of economical concepts in blind born Chilean school children. Denegri et al. (1998, 2000) demonstrated that sighted children constructed their economical notions through a developmental process that comprised the following three levels: extra economic thinking,, subordinate economical thinking, and inferential economical thinking, which imply successive inclusive knowledge from one level to the next. At the initial stages of this research, no studies were found on the development of economical concepts by blind children.Accordingly, the research question posted was: ¿How would congenitally blind children construe their notions about economy, especially considering their impossibility to gain access to "visible experiences", described by Delval, Enesco and Navarro (1994) as so much important for constructing our notions of the world?In order to answer this question, the Interview on the Origin and Circulation of Money for Blind Children (Keller, 2000) was administered to a sample of 60 blind schoolchildren, balanced by gender and age, sampling all the schools for the blind located in Chile, from very North to the far South. The interviews' contents were subjected to a content analysis in order to establish categories. A frequency analysis and Gamma test were also performed. The results indicate a clear evolution in the conceptualization of economic concepts, despite the participants being at only the first two levels of economic thought (Denegri, 1995b). The findings and implications are discussed in light of other research, and some new recommendations for the teaching of economical concepts are offered.

No sentido de compreender como as crianças interagem com essas histórias por meio de suas expressões infantis e como elas relacionam essas narrativas ao seu contexto social. A investigação fundamentou-se nos aportes teóricos do estudioso Propp (1983) no seu método de análise de contos por meio das funções categorizadas. Em Vygotski (1992), em seus estudos que enfocam e analisam a imaginação como uma formação especificamente humana, relacionada à atividade criadora do sujeito. No viés psicanalítico de Bettelheim (1980) que traz considerações sobre os gêneros contos de fadas e como esses se relacionam com as crianças. Nas teorias de Bruner (1987) quanto às várias possibilidades de significados e experiências por meio da narração de crianças. E na escritora e ensaísta Held (1980) que coloca a narrativa como uma boa proposta lúdica, desde que para isso a criança seja motivada. Nesse contexto, o estudo se desenvolveu tendo por objetivo pesquisar, como se dá a interação de crianças de 5 anos de uma instituição pública de educação infantil localizada no Gama/DF em relação aos contos clássicos infantis do programa “Cocoricó”. Para a obtenção dos dados da pesquisa foi utilizado o método de observação participante conjugado a roda de conversa e oficinas de desenhos. Alguns dos resultados obtidos por meio da observação participante foram a relações que as crianças fizeram entre o conteúdo das narrativas e suas experiências de vida e com isso deram os seus significados e sentidos ora por meio da imaginação, ora por meio da sua realidade. / This study results from a study that aimed to analyze the audiovisual narratives (genre parody) of “Cocoricó Conta Clássicos” series (TV Cultura) from the eyes of children. In order to understand how children interact with these stories through their children's expressions and how they relate these stories to their social context. The research was based on the theoretical contributions of the scholar Propp (1983) in its method of analysis of short stories through the categorized functions. In Vygotsky (1992), in their studies that focus on and analyze the imagination as a specifically human, related to the creative activity of the subject. In psychoanalytic bias Bettelheim (1980) that brings considerations about fairy tales genres and how these relate to children. The theories of Bruner (1987) and the various possibilities of meanings and experiences through the narration of children. And the writer and essayist Held (1980) that places the narrative as a good playful proposal, since for this child to be motivated. In this context, the study was developed with the purpose of research, how is the interaction of children 5 years of a public early childhood institution located in Gama / DF in relation to the classic children's tales program "Cocoricó". To obtain the survey data was used the participant observation method combined the conversation wheel and drawing workshops. Some of the results obtained through participant observation were the relationships that children made between the content of the narratives and experiences of life and it gave their meanings and senses now through imagination, sometimes through its reality.

A tessitura deste texto tem seu início no encontro com a obra de Antonin Artaud e nas inquietações que surgem da experiência de uma leitura que se dá como se uma escuta fosse. Escuta-leitura que recolhe nas construções do poeta efeitos de testemunho acerca do momento de queda do sujeito, de desenlace da estrutura, tempo de soltura entre voz e palavra, quando o que emerge é o grito. Percorro, para isso, um caminho de leitura que se pretende um ensaio de escuta da narrativa de Antonin Artaud. Narrativa depositada nas cartas escritas por ele ao longo do seu período de internamento nos manicômios franceses entre os anos de 1937 e 1946. Leitura que toma as cartas como recorte norteador da pesquisa, mas que se mantém em interlocução com elementos de outras produções do poeta que se enlacem à escrita das correspondências. Diante do enclausuramento manicomial, das camisas de força, do eletrochoque, Artaud resistia amarrado à arte. O teatro irá compor um dos principais espaços fora da lógica manicomial. O artista, nas cartas, no teatro, nos poemas ou nos autorretratos, vive a busca por encontrar uma forma de transcrever o que é da ordem do grito. Este estudo acerca da voz e das tentativas de escritura do inominável conduz a uma pergunta auxiliar sobre o corpo. Questão que emerge na experiência clínica ao encontrar, no lugar de palavras articuladas a uma trama discursiva, algo que dá a ver a história de um sujeito através do que no corpo se cifra. Para compor essa trama entre o texto artaudiano e os interrogantes que emergem da clínica, busco nos fios da psicanálise a lalangue – articulador teórico que, em minhas elaborações, enlaça corpo e palavra, voz e escrita. É a partir de lalangue que me inclino em direção à obra de Artaud. Artaud encenou, desenhou, escreveu, gritou o grito. E assim, o grito, vestígio de real que irrompe na cadeia associativa em razão da desarticulação do discurso, pode fazer algo de uma travessia: do vazio da voz desancorada da palavra em um momento de queda do sujeito para um espaço/tempo de endereçamento e existência. Existência que se sustentará corporificada na obra de Artaud. / The woven of this text has its beginning in the work of Antonin Artaud and in the anxiety that arise from the reading-listen experience as if it were a listening. The listening-reading that gathers in the construction of the poet effects of the testimony regarding the moment of the subject fall, of the structure disconnection, of looseness time between the voice and the word, when what arise is the scream. For that, I laid a reading path that is a listening essay in the narrative of Antonin Artaud. This narrative is found in the letters which were wrote by him in his time as an intern in several French mental asylums, from 1937 to 1946. This reading makes his letters as the research compass, but maintain the connection to other work of this poet. Faced with the mental asylum enclosure, the straitjacket and the electro-shock, Artaud remained bound to the art. The theater will compose one of the spaces out of this asylum logic. In the letters, in the theater, in the poems or in the self-portraits, the artist lives to find a way to transcribe what is an scream instance. This study regarding the voice and the writing attempts of the unnamed, leads an auxiliary question about the body. This question arises in the clinical experience which finds, replacing the words from a discursive plot, something else that makes the subject history cyphered in the body. To compose this plot between the plot between the text from Artaud and the questioners that arise from the clinic, I turn to the threads of the lalanage psychoanalyses – theoretical articulator which in my reasoning, connects body and word, voice and writing. Since lalange that I tend to the work of Artaud. Artaud, played, draw, wrote and shout out the scream. With these actions the scream, trace of the real that irrupts in the association chain due to the disarticulation of the speech, can make the passage: from the voice emptiness unanchored from the word during the moment of the subject fall to a time/space of direction and existence. Existence that sustains itself embodied in the work of Artaud.

Parte-se de Sándor Ferenczi e de sua preocupação com o psiquismo do analista durante o trabalho de psicanálise. É apresentado o percurso psicanalítico do autor que compôs, a partir de sua clínica com pacientes difíceis, uma psicanálise cuja técnica se põe sensível às singularidades dos analisandos, e cuja elasticidade se apresenta primeiramente nas possibilidades e disponibilidades psíquicas do analista para este trabalho. Posteriormente, este estudo costura os referenciais teóricos com o Diário Clínico de Ferenczi, particularmente em suas ponderações metapsicológicas enquanto analista e quanto à demanda por alteridade; e articula as compreensões ferenczianas sobre o psiquismo do analista com a teoria e a clínica de D. W. Winnicott. Por fim, amparada nas convergências de outros psicanalistas com Ferenczi e Winnicott, esta pesquisa sugere que a atenção do analista a seus processos internos é o fundamento para alcançar o trabalho intersubjetivo, estruturante para a psicanálise contemporânea. / This master thesis discusses the metapsychology of the analyst. It starts with Sándor Ferenczi and his concern with the psyche of the analyst during work with psychoanalysis. It presents the psychoanalytic background of the author who composed – from his clinic with difficult patients – a psychoanalysis, which technique is made sensitive to the singularities of the analysands, and which elasticity is shown initially in the psychic possibilities and availabilities of the analyst. Subsequently, this study interweaves the theoretical framework with the Clinical Diary of Ferenczi – particularly his metapsychological considerations as an analyst and the demand for alterity – and articulates the Ferenczian understandings of the analyst’s psyche with the theory and clinic of D. W. Winnicott. Lastly, drawing on the convergences of other psychoanalysts with Ferenczi and Winnicott this piece of research suggests that the analyst’s attention to his or her internal processes are fundamental to achieve the intersubjective work, which is structuring for the contemporary Psychoanalysis.

El presente trabajo titulado Configuraciones de lo colonial chileno: La narrativa de Justo Abel Rosales, emerge a partir de diversas inquietudes relacionadas con la construcción simbólica de nuestra identidad nacional. Existen, a mi modo de ver, una serie de peguntas aún no resueltas consistentemente respecto de cómo y a través de qué estrategias, soportes y contenidos se han ido fijando estas narrativas de lo nacional. Ad portas de las celebraciones del Bicentenario me parece pertinente insistir en esta problemática enfatizando más que en los relatos que hegemonizaron esta construcción, en los que fueron marginados de ella, es decir, en las propuestas de construcción del imaginario nacional que no pervivieron, por lo menos, en los discursos oficiales y académicos. El autor al que me dedicaré a lo largo de esta Tesis, y su obra, forman parte de las propuestas intelectuales que, a finales del siglo XIX, es decir, en el contexto del Centenario Nacional, no se erigieron hegemónicamente, es más, no sólo no formaron parte de la ideología dominante, sino que fueron sepultadas y cayeron en el olvido. En este sentido mi trabajo tiene como primer objetivo dar a conocer la propuesta de Justo Abel Rosales, aunque su mirada no se haya constituido en versión oficial de nuestra historia cultural. Los textos que estudiaré, tres crónicas de la ciudad de Santiago y dos novelas históricas, dan cuenta de una producción narrativa que, en general, se resiste a ser clasificada según las categorías y conceptos tradicionales de la literatura y la historiografía. Esta desadecuación se relaciona en primer lugar con la necesidad de entenderlas como producciones híbridas que contienen características de diversas disciplinas. En este sentido, pretendo construir una mirada que no las reduzca a lo que se sabe o se ha fijado como lo que se supone que fueron este tipo de producciones en la época señalada. Mi mirada pretende construir una lectura desde las obras mismas y no forzar interpretaciones a partir de conceptos, géneros o categorías previamente consideradas que en realidad no dan cuenta del fenómeno textual analizado.

The aim of this research is to investigate intellectual development of a group of Black mineworkers on a South African gold mine, in the light of their exposure to a technical industrial environment. The research was conducted within a Piagetian framework and attempts to establish:- 1. A conceptual profile which would highlight the subject's conceptual abilities in relation to job skill requirements. 2. An empirical analysis of combined Behavioural and 3. Explanatory responses to support the hypothesis that experienced Black mineworkers should perform better on the diagnostic battery than novices: the main reason for this being the contention that conceptual development is facilitated by cognitive adaptation to the demands of a selectively different technological environment. Whether the battery of Piagetian conservation tasks could be evaluated for use as conservation scales with sound statistical properties. A random sample of fifty six Black mine workers was realised and their performance indicated that:- a ) The concept of Force is not actively developed by mining. b) There was no significant difference in the performance of Novice and Experienced subjects. c) The diagnostic battery in its present form is inadequate and would have to undergo some relative modifications. d) Conceptual profiles showed that concept areas tapped were not developed past the stage of Concrete operations, and that in some instances subjects did not conserve concepts which are relevant to the occupation they were selected for on the Classification Test Battery. e) Piagetian methodology could only be selectively applied to the mining industry for purposes of selection and placement. f) Conservation scales were not realised because of anomalies found in the composition of sub-concepts in the battery. / KMBT_363 / Adobe Acrobat 9.53 Paper Capture Plug-in

Henry Dan Piper has exploded the legend that all of Fitzgerald' s books where out of print when he died. There may be similar romantic exaggeration which does not bear examination in the popular view that Fitzgerald's reputation as an artist was eclipsed in his later years and magically revived after his death by the editing and publication by Edmund Wilson in 1941 of the unfinished novel Last Tycoon, and of The Crack-Up. Investigation by Matthew J. Bruccoli has shown the essential oversimplification inherent in the widely-held belief that Fitzgerald's last complete novel to be published, Tender is the Night was dismissed or ignored by reviewers demanding novels of social conscience. Fitzgerald attracted legends and since his death has become something of a folk-hero the type of the golden boy who achieved early and instantaneous fame, lives riotously and is then engulfed by the backwash of his own youthful folly somehow leaving an unpublished masterpiece to confound his critics at his early death.
