Verificamos que o princípio da iconicidade pode ser aplicado na análise do corpus, partindo do pressuposto de que a estrutura linguística é motivada e sancionada por fatores pragmático-discursivos que atuam nas escolhas do Profeta para a organização de sua obra. Estabelecemos um diálogo entre os textos não verbal e verbal, investigando o uso de estruturas rotinizadas e interpretando-as por meio do princípio da iconicidade em seu duplo aspecto: imagético e diagramático. E assim, demonstramos que as estruturas cromática e verbal são influenciadas por fatores contextuais. Dentre esses fatores, estão a influência do domínio discursivo da religião e os aspectos propagandísticos atinentes à atividade discursiva de um profeta. Propomos que padrões linguísticos organizados em estruturas paratáticas são mais funcionais aos propósitos pragmáticos do autor. A pesquisa descritiva, de cunho qualitativo, com referências quantitativas, segue as orientações teóricas da Linguística Funcional Centrada no Uso, de Traugott e Trousdale (2013) e Bybee (2010); os pressupostos teóricos sobre a iconicidade, de Givón (1984) e de Fischer e Nänny (1999); as investigações de Guimarães (2000; 2003) sobre o uso das cores como informação; as propostas de Matthiessen e Thompson (1988) sobre as unidades retóricas; e o processo de combinação de orações, segundo Halliday (1985), Lehmann (1988) e Hopper e Traugott (1993). / In this research, we analyze the iconicity in the speech of the Prophet Gentileza, focusing on the observation of linguistic structure of 56 texts, printed on murals, produced by the author between the decades 80 and 90. We check if the principle of iconicity can be applied to the corpus analysis, on the assumption that linguistic structure is motivated and sanctioned by pragmatic-discursive factors that act in the Prophet's choices for the organization of his work. We establish a dialogue between the non-verbal and verbal texts, investigating the use of routinized structures and interpreting them through the principle of iconicity in its dual aspect: imagery and diagrammatic. So, we demonstrate that the chromatic and verbal structures are influenced by contextual factors. Among these factors, are the influences of the discursive domain of religion and publicity aspects, linked to the discursive activity of a prophet. We propose that linguistic patterns organized into paratatics structures are more functional for the pragmatic purposes of the author. The descriptive research of qualitative nature, using quantitative references, follows the theoretical orientations of Usage-Based Linguistics, Traugott and Trousdale (2013) and Bybee (2010); the theoretical assumptions about the iconicity of Givón (1984) and Fischer and Nanny (1999); the investigations of Guimarães (2000; 2003) about the use of color as information; the proposals of Matthiessen and Thompson (1988) about the rhetorical units; and the combination process of clauses according Halliday (1985), Lehmann (1988) and Hopper and Traugott (1993).

In this thesis I give a response to external world scepticism. I first argue that scepticism arises when we accept that it is an empirical question whether I am in a sceptical scenario, that is, a scenario in which my beliefs are coherent, and yet my empirical beliefs are false. The idea that it is an empirical question whether I am in a sceptical scenario gets its plausibility from the realist claim that our empirical beliefs have an objective subject matter. I then attempt to give a response to scepticism that is compatible with this realist claim. Three promising responses to scepticism are considered, but are found to be inadequate. Seeing why these responses are inadequate helps us to appreciate some of the conditions on an adequate response to scepticism. By drawing on the work of Donald Davidson I develop a response to scepticism that is compatible with the realist claim, and that meets these conditions. According to this response, when we get clear about the concept of belief we see that sceptical scenarios are a conceptual impossibility. Thus, just as it is not an empirical question whether I am a married bachelor, it is not an empirical question whether I am in a sceptical scenario, and the argument for scepticism breaks down.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the results of the revolution and its effects on the Russian people. Since the government of the NEP period allowed relative freedom to writers, attention is focused on this time. The writers Kozakov, Malashkin, Grabar', and Nikiforov were chosen because their naturalistic writings would give the most accurate picture of the time. While all four authors deal with the ills of the system, their different methods of investigation give a greater scope to a critical analysis. Each chapter of the paper presents the background of the author, some stylistic elements, deficiencies in the Soviet system and psychological effects on the characters. The writers are dealt with in the following order: CHAPTER I-Mikhail E. Kozakov "Meshchanin Adameyko" CHAPTER II-Sergey I. Malashkin "Luna s pravoy storony" CHAPTER III-Leonid Y. Grabar' "Lakhudrin pereulok" and "Na kirpichakh" CHAPTER IV-Georgiy K. Nikiforov “U fonarya” and “Ztienshcnina” The conclusion points out that the results of the revolution were far from what was expected at its inception. Much, of the Communist ideology worked against the psychological make-up of the people causing endless frustrations. The failure of the Party to consider human character brought out undesirable factions and destroyed some of the most worthy elements in the society; thus, retarding the progress towards its own goal. / Arts, Faculty of / Central Eastern Northern European Studies, Department of / Graduate

What is an event? What sort of object are they? How is a given event distinguished from other events and other objects? This thesis on science oriented metaphysics will take Davidson's account of events as its starting point to answer the above questions. It will develop this conception of events into one that is consistent with the special theory of relativity by updating its notions of change, cause and property. The new concept of a proper property, a generalization of the notion of an invariant, is introduced to solve some of these metascientific problems. Other features of the work include an analysis of the Lorentz force equation as it applies to one family of cases of causation, showing that a use of cause and effect to help individuate events cannot be complete until relativistic features are built into it. I propose that the conception of a proper property will also solve this worry over the nature of causation as it affects the issues of events above. In particular, it will attempt to solve a charge of circularity which has been leveled at Davidson's account. This property analysis also has the feature that it makes the account of events which started with Davidsonian inspiration (i.e. causes and effects are intimately connected to events) more like Kim's. Kim's account of events is modified on the grounds it does not do justice to our intuitions about changes and events. / Arts, Faculty of / Philosophy, Department of / Graduate

This dissertation focuses on how a specific conceptual thread of the history of mathematics unfolded throughout the centuries from its original account in Ancient Greece to its demise in the Modern era due to new mathematical developments and, finally, to its revival in the work of Brentano. In particular, we shall discuss how the notion of continuity and the connected notion of continua and boundaries developed through the ages until Brentano's revival of the original Aristotelian account against the by then established mathematical orthodoxy. Thus, this monograph hopes to fill in a gap in the present state of Brentanian scholarship as well as to present a thorough account of this specific historical thread.
