Uma incursão pelo romance Avalovara, de Osman Lins, abre possibilidades para a descoberta de um universo acústico repleto de simbolismos, permeando as cenas da narrativa. O presente trabalho fundamenta-se nas pesquisas do compositor e educador canadense Raymond Murray Schafer sobre a paisagem sonora mundial. Propõe-se a investigar a relação entre a obra literária Avalovara e a linguagem sonora a partir das expressões acústicas do romance, identificando os possíveis significados de tais conexões. Fez-se necessária a transposição para o mundo ficcional de Avalovara da metodologia de análise e classificação dos sons utilizada por Schafer, tendo sido elaborada uma tabela de categorização contendo os cenários mais significativos com as sonoridades identificadas em cada um deles. Uma passagem pelos caminhos da ecocrítica e da ecologia sonora possibilitam, com base na visão de Schafer sobre ruído associada a diversas expressões de sons estridentes presentes na narrativa, vislumbrar uma proximidade do pensamento de Osman Lins com o ideário da ecologia acústica. Sons naturais, música, ruídos e silêncio se mesclam em uma sinfonia de oposições sonoras em que o ir e o vir dá vida e ritmo à narrativa, estabelecendo uma ligação da linguagem literária com a linguagem musical. Inter-relacionam-se, também, a estrutura do romance e a organização formal de peças musicais relevantes, tais como, a cantata Catulli Carmina, de Carl Orff, e os fragmentos da introdução da Sonata em fá menor (K462) para cravo, de Scarlatti. Quatro músicas de caráter contrastante, aqui denominadas de eixos musicais, revelam o percurso dos protagonistas em suas buscas, seus anseios e suas frustrações. O pássaro Avalovara com seus cantos, gritos e movimentos em espiral, traz à tona um mundo de mistérios que permite fazer associações e interpretar os diversos simbolismos relacionados à ave guia. As palavras no corpo da remetem a um processo de iniciação para o conhecimento, quando o pássaro mítico a introduz no mundo dos sons. Alguns aspectos da filosofia tântrica são aqui abordados em razão da profunda similaridade dos processos de ascensão espiritual com a trajetória de Abel e a , em sua obstinada busca pelo conhecimento absoluto a partir do domínio dos mistérios das palavras que perpassam o corpo da mulher tríplice. O silêncio no romance é analisado sob várias perspectivas, relacionando-o com a filosofia tântrica e com as concepções de Schafer e de John Cage. O romance foi considerado como uma única paisagem sonora e seus fragmentos cênicos denominados, neste trabalho, de cenários sonoros. / A foray into romance Avalovara, Osman Lins, opens up possibilities for the discovery of an acoustic universe full of symbolism permeating the scenes of the narrative. This paper is based on the researches of the Canadian composer and educator Raymond Murray Schafer about the global soundscape. It propose to investigate the relationship between the literary work Avalovara and a sound language from the novel acustic expressions, identifying the possible meanings of such connections. Was necessary a transposition to the fictional world of Avalovara of the analysis methodology and classification of sounds used by Schafer, having been developed a categorization table containing the most significant scenarios with the sounds identified in each of them. A passage along the paths of ecocriticism and sound ecology allow, based on Schafer's view of noise associated with various expressions of strident sounds present in the narrative, to glimpse a proximity of the thought of Osman Lins with the ideas of acoustic ecology. Natural sounds, music, noise and silence blend themselves in a symphony of sound oppositions where the going and coming give life and rhythm to the narrative, connecting the literary language with the musical language. Interrelate also the structure of the novel and the formal organization of relevant musical pieces such as the Catulli Carmina cantata, of Carl Orff, and the fragments of the introduction of the Sonata in F minor (K462) for harpsichord, of Scarlatti. Four musics of contrasting character, here called of musical axis, shows the route of the protagonists in their searches, their anxieties and their frustrations. The Avalovara bird with their chants, shouts and spiral movements brings up a world of mysteries that allows associations and interpret the various symbolisms related to bird guide. The words in the body of refer to a process of initiation into the knowledge, when the mythical bird introduces her in the world of sounds. Some aspects of tantric philosophy are addressed here because of the profound similarity of spiritual ascension process with the trajectory of Abel and , in his dogged pursuit of absolute knowledge from the control of the mysteries of words that permeate the body of the triple woman. The silence in the novel is analyzed from various perspectives, relating it with the tantrik philosophy and the thought of Schafer and John Cage. The novel was regarded as a unique soundscape and its scenic fragments called, in this work, of sound scenarios.

Frantisek Gregora which is an outstanding contrabassist, composer and theorist. Frantisek Simandl which is one of the most famous professors at Konservatorium Wien or George Mraz which is worldwide double bass player. All they were born in South Czech, and my master diploma Thesis is dedicated to them. But this my work will not be only devoted to them, I will also talk about other famous musicians from South Czech as Jozef Houdek, and also about Petr Ries or Karel Sejna which are both members of Czech Philharmonic, because they were and they are important representatives of czech double bass school.

Para tanto, selecionamos as seguintes obras do autor: Homens de aço: a luta nos ervais (2008), Vida de Erval (2008), Pelas Orilhas da Fronteira (2008), Caraí (2008), O Tereré que me inspira (2008), Pialando...no Más (2008), Carai Ervateiro (2008) e No Mundo Bruto dos Ervais (2008), uma vez que os contos, causos, crônicas, os textos inseridos nessas obras, deslocam-se, sobretudo, da/na fronteira Brasil – Paraguai e seus personagens reais/ficcionalizados vivem uma espécie de nomadismo dispersivo em uma zona de fronteira imaginária, entrecortada – mata adentro - pelos caminhos da Companhia Matte Larangeira (1877-1944). A possibilidade de analisar, nos vãos que se abrem, a partir do cruzar – contínuo e temporal – o sujeito fronteiriço, poderá levar-nos a reconhecer possíveis representações identitárias ainda pouco estudadas. Sustentará esta investigação, o enfoque teórico-crítico advindo dos Estudos Culturais tendo como referência os autores: Bhabha (2003), Hall (2003) Canclini (2003) e Achugar (2006), pois trataremos de uma temática que transita pelas relações entre literatura e aspecto de formação identitária. Defendemos que o fazer literário serejiano esteja no narrar aquilo que viu e ouviu, o que aconteceu e o que teria acontecido na lembrança e no resgate do esquecido. Estudar a obra de Hélio Serejo é uma forma de (re)descobrir aspectos de “posições de sujeitos” velados pela história oficial, ainda mais quando se trata de uma fronteira “onde o Brasil, já foi Paraguay” / The current study aimed at investigating through Helio Serejo´s narratives (1912-2007), the way border is inserted and the way by which subjects who transit in the “abandoned border” in times of postwar and territorial occupation. In order to do so, the following plays were selected: Homens de aço: a luta nos ervais (2008), Vida de Erval (2008), Pelas Orilhas da Fronteira (2008), Caraí (2008), O Tereré que me inspira (2008), Pialando...no Más (2008), Carai Ervateiro (2008) and No Mundo Bruto dos Ervais (2008), due to the tales, stories and chronics, texts inserted into these plays shift particularly in the borders of Brazil-Paraguay and their real and fiction characters experience a sort of dispersive nomandism in an imaginary border zone, – in the forest – by the paths of Matte Laranjeira company (1877-1944). The possibility of analyzing through the spaces, from the crossing – continuous and by the time – the border subject may lead us to recognize possible identity representations with few studies. The investigation lies on the critical theoretical approach based on the cultural studies: Bhabha (2003), Hall (2003) Canclini (2003) e Achugar (2006), once the main themes transit by the relationship between literature and the identity formation aspects. We argue that serejian literary work is in narrating what was seen and listened, what happened and what would have happened in the memory and in the forgiven revival. Studying Hélio Serejo play is a way of (re)descovering aspects of “subjects´positioning” hidden by official history, particularly when the “border Brazil was once Paraguay” is concerned

A presente dissertação consiste na análise da obra As pedras do caminho, da escritora gaúcha Lydia Mombelli da Fonseca, no tocante à investigação literária da representação do sujeito feminino, com base em aporte teórico de estudos culturais de gênero, crítica feminista, bem como regionalidade, ideologia patriarcal e identidade. Nesse sentido, observa-se o papel referente à mulher na sociedade, principalmente, por volta da década de 1950, ano de publicação do romance, com o objetivo de desvelar estigmas e comportamentos esperados das mulheres na época, além de promover reflexões a respeito de naturalizações sociais estabelecidas e reproduzidas em relação ao sujeito feminino, ainda, em meio à contemporaneidade. Ademais, este estudo busca demonstrar a participação da mulher como sujeito do processo histórico-cultural enquanto produtora de texto literário, trazendo ao conhecimento acadêmico a autora Lydia Mombelli da Fonseca, a fim de contribuir para o alargamento da história cultural e literária da Região de Colonização Italiana do Rio Grande do Sul e do próprio estado. / Submitted by Ana Guimarães Pereira (agpereir@ucs.br) on 2016-11-23T15:36:15Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Jaqueline Modelski.pdf: 1377584 bytes, checksum: 5c06aba292ddfb13df6bd8e3f3feea8c (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2016-11-23T15:36:15Z (GMT).

In this sense, it is possible to observe the role relating to women in society, especially in the decade of 1950, the year of publication of the novel, in order to unveil stigmas and behaviors expected of women at the time, in addition to promoting reflections on established and reproduced social naturalizations in relation to the female subject, even amidst the present. Furthermore, this study seeks to demonstrate the participation of women as the subject of historical and cultural process as a producer of literary text, bringing to academic knowledge the author Lydia Mombelli da Fonseca, in order to contribute to the expansion of the cultural and literary history of the Italian Colonization Region of Rio Grande do Sul and the state itself.

Este trabalho apresenta uma análise intertextual do romance The Solid Mandala, do escritor australiano, ganhador do prêmio Nobel, Patrick White, publicado em 1966, como parte de um esforço para estimular estudos sobre sua obra no Brasil e para investigar por que sua fortuna crítica tem passado por uma fase negativa recentemente. Primeiro, mostramos brevemente sua biografia e as condições relacionadas à produção e publicação de The Solid Mandala. Em seguida, apresentamos o contexto histórico do romance. As relações de conflito e complementação envolvendo os irmãos gêmeos Waldo e Arthur Brown na narrativa são analisadas, com destaque para a relação deles com a literatura (um tema importante no romance), retratando o papel das personagens como leitores e escritores na história, apreendendo, assim, seus sentimentos, suas visões de mundo e filosofia de vida (Waldo aspira à uma carreira de escritor e Arthur de fato compõe um poema). Os estudos de Gérard Genette sobre Narratologia são utilizados para embasar a análise, particularmente na relação intertextual entre The Solid Mandala e The Brothers Karamazov, do escritor F. Dostoyevsky, que é o título que chama a atenção de Arthur. Na busca pelo todo de sua vida, Arthur incorpora vários elementos (centrados em um único ponto, suas mandalas) e consegue criar sua própria filosofia. No final vemos que Arthur transcende sua realidade ao usar a leitura do romance russo como um instrumento. Esse estudo destaca a pertinência de revisitar a obra de Patrick White (uma vez que ela prova estar em sintonia com as questões filosóficas sendo discutidas atualmente) e coloca The Solid Mandala no contexto da literatura mundial. / This work performs an intertextual analysis of the Nobel Prize winning Australian novelist Patrick White’s The Solid Mandala, published in 1966, as part of an effort to boost studies of his novels in Brazil and to investigate why his critical fortune has been undergoing a negative phase recently. First, we briefly present his biography and the conditions surrounding the writing and publication of The Solid Mandala. Later on, we present the historical context of the novel. The relations of conflict and complementation involving the twin brothers Waldo and Arthur Brown in the narrative are analysed, but we focus on their relation to literature (which is an important theme in the novel), depicting their roles as readers and writers in the story, thus, apprehending their feelings towards each other, worldviews and outlook on life (Waldo aspires to become a great writer, and Arthur actually produces a poem). Gérard Genette’s studies on Narratology are used to support our analysis, particularly in the intertextual relation between The Solid Mandala and F. Dostoyevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov, which is the title that calls Arthur’s attention. In his pursue to find the whole of his life, Arthur incorporates various elements (centred at just one point, his mandalas) and is able to create his own philosophy. At the end we see that Arthur transcends his reality by using the reading of the Russian novel as an instrument. This study enlightens the pertinence of revisiting Patrick White’s oeuvre (since it proves to be so well tuned in to the current philosophical issues being discussed), and places The Solid Mandala in the context of worldwide literature.

In Western scholarship, eighteenth century Chinese paintings have consistently been seen as playful, eccentric, and odd. This characterization has been based on the formal qualities of some of the paintings. At the same time, Chinese scholars have written of the scholarly virtues and ambitions of the painters producing the works. The contradiction between these two interpretations is in part consistent with the Western and Chinese approaches generally. But it also stems from the mixed signals and information generated in the eighteenth century. The nature of painting, not just formally, but socially has yet to be explained in a way which takes into account some actual historical contradictions of the eighteenth century. In order to explain these historical tensions, I combine a biographical (Chinese) approach with a contextual approach (Western) in a study of two different scholar painters, Zheng Xie and Li Shan. I juxtapose biographical sources with artworks, and less official writings relating Zheng Xie and Li Shan, in order to describe the tensions involved in painting for the literatus within the merchant culture of Yangzhou. These tensions existed between the literatus' expected status and that granted him, between his ideal of the role of painting in the scholar's life and the implications of commercial painting, and between his emphasis upon poetry and his popularity as a painter. In all cases, the tensions in eighteenth century literati painting arise from the difficult relationship between the painter and patron, and between the painter and the ideas of a broader public. The lack of a clear definition of "scholar" and "scholar painting" amongst literati illustrates the literatus' loss of control over the definition of his lifestyle. / Arts, Faculty of / Art History, Visual Art and Theory, Department of / Graduate

Dans cette thèse nous analysons la place logique que les principes ont occupée à la fin du XIXe et au début du XXe siècle dans la construction des théories relativistes. Après une présentation de caractère général et historique (chapitres 1-3) dans laquelle nous rappelons le statut des principes dans la tradition classique et dans les travaux de Newton, et dans laquelle nous tentons de montrer comment la théorie de la thermodynamique et les théories de la lumière ont pu remettre en cause cette tradition, le corpus de la thèse peut être divisé en deux grandes parties, une première (chapitres 4-6) consacrée à la relativité restreinte, et une deuxième (chapitres 7-9) consacrée à la théorie de la relativité générale. Le chapitre 1 est consacré à rappeler ce que sont les principes dans la tradition classique, d’Aristote à Galilée et Newton. Dans le deuxième chapitre nous évoquons la formulation des deux principes de la thermodynamique et nous montrons en quoi ils s’éloignent de la mécanique classique et peuvent être considérés comme deux principes d’un nouveau type. Dans le troisième chapitre nous présentons un panorama des théories physiques à la fin du XIXe siècle, afin de replacer dans leur contexte les réflexions qui ont conduit à la formulation de la théorie de la relativité restreinte. Les chapitres quatre et cinq sont consacrés au principe de relativité. Dans le chapitre quatre nous l’abordons de façon géométrique, en mettant en évidence les différences entre espace géométrique et espace physique et les problèmes liés à l’espace absolu. Au chapitre cinq nous analysons de plus près la formulation du principe de relativité dans les travaux de Poincaré de 1904-1905. Le chapitre six est consacré à la présentation de la relativité restreinte faite par Einstein la même année 1905. Les chapitres sept, huit et neuf sont consacrés à la relativité générale et aux principes qu’Einstein pose à sa base. Dans le chapitre sept nous analysons le principe d’équivalence et la première période de formulation de la théorie de la relativité générale (1907-1912). Le chapitre 8 reprend le thème de la géométrie et montre comment des considérations générales sur la non-validité de la géométrie euclidienne ont mis Einstein sur la voie de la théorie généralisée de la gravitation. Le chapitre 9 aborde un moment délicat de la construction de la théorie :les années 1913-1915, pendant lesquelles Einstein abandonne l’idée de covariance générale et essaie d’établir les équations de la théorie. Nous analysons les principes qui le guident dans ses recherches et ceux qu’il abandonne (même temporairement), pour montrer enfin comment Einstein est arrivé à la formulation de la théorie de la relativité générale. / Doctorat en Sciences / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished

Dr. Kwan Hsu was neither a superstar nor a celebrity. Her name does not come up in conversations about important contributors to her field of biophysics nor is she instantly recognizable for her contributions to Portland State University's international program or the state of Oregon's business ties with China. Yet she was a contributor, a cog-in-the-wheel, at the very least, in all of these areas and more. She was a peripheral member of a well-known Chinese family, but few in the United States know of or perhaps have interest in, but otherwise, she had no great connections or family ties to generate interest in her story. How does one process a collection for a woman who does not meet the traditional criteria for excellence or success or public interest for an archive? Where is the value to the larger historical narrative of our time in preserving the memories of someone who was non-remarkable, or, conversely, someone who may be even too unique to contribute to that greater narrative? These are the questions I wrestled with when I first came to this collection. As my research progressed, I realized that I faced more questions, and that to come to any understanding that might answer them, I was going to have to research the history of archives and archival processes. Science, the Cold War, Communist China, women, the immigrant experience, all of these issues became part of my thesis, however shallowly I was able to investigate them. Questions of identity and historiography, of power and discourse were explored. In the end, what I found was that a collection that on the outside looked unimpressive and unenlightening, could indeed be very valuable, and provide insight into any number of areas of current interest in historical research. This is that story.
